Since everyone seems to be back into Pokémon!

So you're fed up with all these bad Fakemon and Pokémon splices? Tired of seeing Pikasaur and Wartwo? Sick of Plaid Pink and Dotted Orange?
The thirteenth volume of the tSC Compo Series challanges you to make your own custom Pokémon battle sprites!

Here are the rules:

Front and back pose, each 64x64px maximum
16 colours maximum (one palette for both sprites)
• The front sprite may have a battle intro animation of 3 frames at most
• If you're out of creative ideas, official Pokémon are fine, but your own creations are preferred. However, splices and edits will be shot on sight.
• If you're super fancy, you may set up a battle mock-up with health bars, text boxes and all that sweet eye-candy. These may have their own palettes, but should not be accounted for judgement.
• I think everything else is self-explanatory. If anything is unclear, don't hestate to ask!

I wish you all to have some good fun! Entries are due to Saturday, February 2nd.

Yes. You could even make custom sprites of existing Pokémon since the main purpose of these competitions is to get people to sprite ;-)

No! You can, but there's no need to. The perspective should work with the Pokémon battle screen layout, but aside from that, you're free to choose whatever style you want.

You're allowed to do as many sprites as you like, but you may only submit one as your entry!

I have like no practice in pokemon style shading or color theory, that's gonna need some more work

I have a feeling that back sprite is going to be a pain, too

Oh well, c'est la vie~
