You've saved this as a .JPG file, which destroys the pixel quality and increases the colours. Also, it appears to have no connection to time. Read the first post.

Also, Punnagg, you could just tweak your description to incorporate time so your don't have to re-sprite it.
So, all you have to do is save the file as a PNG and alter the description a bit and you'll be approved ;)

PM or VM either me or Spherical Ice if you have any more questions :)
Good Luck!

Wow, the pixel art competition is definitely different to last years. xD I have to admit, I did kinda struggle. xD I also originally had an idea for a weapon that allows every move to be a priority move (that kinda incorporates time xD) at the cost of always enduring recoil damage. XP I wonder if I've given anyone my idea...? xD Anyway, thanks -Ty- and Spherical Ice for hosting btw.

Competition: #2
Artwork:
YGyRc.png

Description: This item uses the power of stored time to raise the holder's Defence and Special Defence by two stages each for the duration of any two-turn move, with the stat increases disappearing at the beginning of the turn after the move is fully completed. Includes moves such as Solar Beam, Skull Bash, Dig, Fly, Hyper Beam, Giga Impact, etc. Does not apply if these moves are shortened to one turn (eg sun speeding up Solar Beam) as no time is being stored.

I intend to enter the other two contests later but right now I'm completely stuck for ideas on them both haha. I spent ages adding accessories to Gardevoir but none of them really fitted the theme so yeah... I'll try those again later in the week :)

It's hard to believe there isn't a dispensable healing item that regenerates over a several turns. Cool idea.

Also to everyone else, thanks for the entries.
Remember the themes are open to interpretation.
If you look at "futuristic" in a star-wars kind of way, spriting style change, or by the change in the Pokemon's attire/attitude it doesn't matter. As long as you give a bit of explanation you can really interpret the theme in numerous ways.

Remember to PM either myself or Spherical Ice if you have any questions.
Have Fun!

My last entry. :D

Username:Retriution
Contest: #1 - Repose
Artwork:
28hk10z.png

Description: Well, as you can see the proportions of Pokemon have certainly become more 'realistic'. So yeah, here's a dinosaur-like Charmander. I changed a lot of the proportions, the whole sprite is completely scratch, minus the palette from the B/W Charmander sprite and I made some changed (smaller eyes, larger nostrils, the fire on the tail comes up the tail more, sharper talons and nails on the toes to name just a few.)
Also, some people compare Agumon to Charmander. I did kinda make Charmander look A LOT like a Digmon, haha. xD
