Here are some tips to help you improve your recoloring. Today we'll turn a Skitty blue. I'll use MS Paint to edit my sprites. Notice that it has more than one shade of pink in its body to make it have a more even tone.

Now i'll zoom in and get a different pokemon with nice shades of blue in it. I'll use marill.

Using the eyedropper tool, take the lightest shade of blue from Marill and use it to fill in/replace the lightest shade of pink on Skitty like so!

Now do the same for the others, matching shades of blue and pink, until you have a pretty blue Skitty!

Lesson Two: Fusing

Okay, here it is, fusing! I'll also be using Microsoft Paint for this lesson. Today we will first mix a Pikachu with a Charizard, then a few trainers, and finally a pokemon/trainer fusion.

Part One: Pokemon mixing
First, get the Pikachu and Charizard and put them into MS PAint. Next, click on the magnify tool.

Now, click on the Freestyle select button (has a dotted star shape on it). CAREFULLY select Charizard's wings and move them to a nice empty space.

Next, select the wings again and place them on the sides of Pikachu's body and voila! a winged Pikachu! You can recolor pikachu if you want.

This technique also works for ears, feet, and tails. The next two lessons will be posted later. Have fun fusing!
