oh i didn't even know about 'tanlare'.

but yeah, if Perimask (Perish + mask?) is tragedy, what is Tanlare? o.O
According to the first post, Tanlare is the evolved form of Perimask. I'll probably have a go at spriting him within the next few days.

Why would it need two different faces if it only has the aspect of 'perish'?
I think the outline was fine when I edited it, it looked quite smooth in my opinion. Plus the eyes look less anti-aliased now. :c..
I dunno, I guess I just wanted it to look more official, most Nintendo-made Pokemon sprites have little-to-no anti-aliasing; so it looks more crispy.

from what i've seen myself, there are a lot of dark outlines and coarse edges, so i'd have to disagree on there being more anti-aliasing in BW.

besides, BW uses animation and generally anti-aliasing animated sprites is rather difficult to implement.

I looked at the description of both. Nothing said that one was the evolution of the other.

Oh, silly me. It doesn't say that they are evolutions of the other, but I think it's a good assumption. (They are both water types, they are both described as having dull black eyes, the same person created both concepts, one is right after the other on the list, etc.)

Keep the 'dex alive!

Name: Dripocel
Class: Water Spout Pokemon
Type: Water/Steel
PokeDex: Dripocel amuses itself by knocking birds and insects out of the air with bursts of water. This is especially effective against Kilnary, resulting in the two frequently fighting.

Description: An ocelot with tubes protruding from its back and hose-like tails.


I hope this is sufficiently water/steel looking. I wasn't really thinking about the types as I was making this.

Wait. Tails? Totally missed that. Oh, well.

Yay! It's not dead! :D

It's cute. Maybe you could add additional highlighting to make it look more like a steel type? Or maybe some plating on the legs and head or something... And one more tail couldn't hurt. ;)

Oh, like giving it a more polished chrome kind of look? That's an idea. I'll see what I can do about adding some kind of plating or similar metal stuff to it. Or someone else could try. I don't mind if anyone wants to adjust it.

I don't know about two tails though. That reminds me too much of Buizel.

scarf, i really really like the sprite, but i feel that it needs some adjustments to the design to meet the typing and description. perhaps try making the legs less realistic and go for some flat, round shapes... in this instance, i would look at the deoxys forms and the various limbs as inspiration.

or hell, maybe even just leave the sprite as it is with a different typing.

That looks so adorable!! I don't think it looks very STEEL; nevertheless, I wouldn't change it. I think you should consider changing the type, as has been suggested -- possibly water/normal or just pure water? Not sure.

leave the sprite, it sounds more like a real pokemon if it gains a steel type when it evolves such as the pokemon starters, they always start of as just water/fire/grass type and then as they evolve they gain a type, such as Charizerd is a fire/flying or venusaur is a Grass/poison

It does look more steel-ish with those colors.

But if retyping is an option I did originally make it with different colors:

Which could work with some other concept. But I think we can go with Nimblethumbs' colors.

With the new style in Black and White, there is a ton of anti-aliasing I believe.
When the colour palette allows for it the artists will do as much as they can:



Pay close attention to the shading on his body.



Quite a bit around the shading and outlines.



Plenty on the face, hands, body and shoulders.

They can't do it all the time because the sprites still have a 15 colour limit, but I hope nobody here is strictly sticking to a limit that's down to outdated DS hardware.
