I think White is in contention for the dumbest trainer-in-waiting award.:laugh:

Haha yeah you're probably right, but you'll just have to wait and see haha ;)



On another note, I have a question for you all, I'm considering the idea of using D/P style "Over World" character sprites since they look a lot better zoomed in, and are really not THAT much bigger than the third generation ones.

I came up with what White would look like, let me know if you all like the idea, and I'll start using them as of next chapter or something.

The new sprite is even better,you should use it.

GreenStorm June 3rd, 2008 6:40 PM

Well, looks like you took the advice. Never seen someone actually do that. It's shaping up and looking good now, I honestly can't wait for the next comic!

As for the sprite thing. It's not a good idea to mix tilesets. So if you want to use the DP sprite, then it would be better to change everything into DP tilesets.

Aero-LyNx June 3rd, 2008 7:27 PM

Wow, good D/P Sprites, lol. I like your comic very much, I'll be waiting your next comic.

And about the DP sprites, I agree to Greenstorm. You can't mix the Dp with RSE Sprites. It'll be bad. And if you want to use your DP sprite, use it for special events.(But remember don't mix it okay.).

xiraiya June 4th, 2008 1:29 AM

Yeah fair enough I suppose, and I'm not exactly willing to recreate hoenn in D/P tiles haha, oh well... i'll start work on chapter 3 tomorrow, been busy last couple of days, the speech takes forever since theres no proper font i can use, the letters are all placed by hand...

Aero-LyNx June 4th, 2008 5:06 AM

Wow, If I were you, I would download fonts and type it. lol... I like your style. lol

Aero-LyNx June 4th, 2008 8:18 AM

I've been stocking up on PROTEIN and HP UP so I'm good to go haha it's 2am so maybe i'm not so good, Hopefully tomorrow I'll finish chapter 3, there will be pokemon attacks in it, heroes and maybe even White will FINALLY start his journey, I plan on using PMD sprites, however I lack the sprites of Bagon and it's evolution, It's like the only pokemon spriters resource hasn't got for PMD and it happens to be the one I need haha oh well.

Aero-LyNx June 4th, 2008 8:37 AM

Haha, I've just consumed a BITTER HERB, and I feel like 'I'm going to sleep late night', haha. Btw, I can help you search the sprites. When I found it, I'll PM you right away.

Red1530 June 4th, 2008 4:08 PM

I think you should use D/P style graphics xiraiya

xiraiya June 5th, 2008 5:20 AM

Chapter 3 is up guys, Have fun

I wouldn't mind using the D/P sprites they would probably fit since they aren't really any bigger and in a comic placed correctly they would look fine, but then I'd have to remake half of the Important people from Emerald, Fire red etc.

We'll see, though.

ComoToon June 5th, 2008 1:40 PM

Wow your comic is really shaping up nicely *damn more competition*.
No I'm just kidding I'm really a fan of your comic and the new white looks great.
I'm loving the night time effect for chapter 3. I can't wait till you show the first battle.

Mr. Epic June 5th, 2008 1:55 PM

nice sprite comic
Soy tan real como la vida misma


ComoToon June 5th, 2008 2:38 PM

Wow your comic is becoming popular on PC I think you should start hosting I recommend Drunk Duck as a comic host it's what I use for my comic which I wish you would check out and give me a few pointers. Like how to make your cool night effect *cough* cough*.

Ah I see, I'll check out Drunk Duck and I'll go read your comic too, haha I might use the new white, I'll do a test in a day or so to see if the DP sprite will be good to use.
I'm proud of the cut scene shot with Steven watching from the distance haha.

I'm looking around for a tutorial section for pixel art, so I can write up a small guide for anyone who wants to mimic my night effect.

I took a good long hard look at how it all looked in the G/S/C games because that style of night seemed the most correct by Nintendo's standards, managed to copy it for the third generation quite well I think.

ComoToon June 5th, 2008 3:33 PM

Actually Drunk Duck has been rather buggy for me it has a large community (more people to read your comic) that's a plus buts it's full of bugs. I like new White especially his shading better especially the hair.

Super Sprita June 5th, 2008 3:52 PM

nice dude I loled @ when he saw the ape-pokemon *forgot his name*

xiraiya June 5th, 2008 4:25 PM

Haha thanks a lot, I think it's called Vigoroth.

GreenStorm June 6th, 2008 11:58 AM

I have a question. In the second panel of your last comic, is White running away from the Fearow or is White the one that said "A Fearow? Hmm"?

Ah, I didn't realize people didn't quite get it, He's the guy in the distance running, It's Steven who's standing close up.

He has grayish hair and the black suit.

GreenStorm June 7th, 2008 2:56 PM

Oh, because Steven looks awfully a lot like White in back-sprite form.

Yeah I know haha, White's backsprite is based off Stevens since the hair matches, that and now they have met... the apprentice usually seems similar to their Master... it would be fine during the day because of the color differences etc.


And no... I didn't just drop a future hint about White becoming a trainer and learning from Steven.;)

hm. The third chapter threw me off a bit.
it went from "Aw crap, I got thrown off my own moving truck" to- "OMFG!!!1 SOMETHING IS CASEING ME! wait, a random guy appears and I forgot all about the thing? ooo.... I better trust him for no apperant reason! =D"
:/

yeah, you totally didn't give a spoiler. XD
