its disappointing how long I spent working on this compared to how disappointingly not as good as I expected it to be it looks. took me like an hour and 15 minutes, a half hour alone spriting and respriting the tail to make it suck as little as possible.

[Suicune's Fire]

Time well spent, friend. xD Only with lots of experience can you sprite quickly and to the same standard. That pyroar in my signature would have taken me well over an hour. I remember when I did that pixel art of that lady which I think you saw...that took hours upon hours upon hours. I sort of wish I documented just how long it took me. XD It was a very long time.

That being said, you may change your entry at any point until the due date. :] So if you truly are unsatisfied, you may resubmit it within the next two weeks and it'll be accepted.

Spriting is not my strongest suit, but I made these today, A Dolphin-Kyogre and a Hyogre-Centipede.

Before Kyogre was a powerful Killer whale, it used to be a graceful dolphin frolicking in the ocean.
Before Groudon evolved it spent it's life scurrying through the dirt as a bug.

Made the Dolphon-Kyogre from scratch, using Kyogre colour template.
Just ripped apart Groudon sprite and added bits to turn it into a bug.

OMGOSH BRETTLES. THAT BUG. XD AMAZING. Do you really think that would be a pre-evolution though? XD Very nice idea with the dolphin! :]

I said I wasn't going to post this up until the last couple of days even if I DID finish it, buuttt I couldn't resist.

It has 15 colors. Also, good LORD it was really difficult to try to get the alpha character on its head to have the correct angling. Still failed, but at least I tried.

I'll only be doing one for Kyogre.
Also, my explanation: I'm sure you may be wondering why its design is based on Primal Kyogre. Let's take a look-sie, shall we? Primal / Ancient Kyogre is, as its name suggests, what it looked like in ancient times, presumably around its time of creation / birth. Assuming that it was born from an Egg as a different species / baby version, it would have been in ancient times. Sooo...Primal Kyogre is what it originally looked like. Plus this also implies that Kyogre is literally one-of-a-kind, is ever-living, and is not actually able to reproduce, unlike some legendaries that aren't as significant (Lati duo, etc). Yes, I know no legendary can reproduce in-game, but it's always been hinted at in movies, the anime, and spin-off games and main series games (since, after all, why would Moltres appear in like three different regions at three different times if it supposedly originates from just one of the said regions) that there is some way that some legends CAN, in fact, reproduce. However I like to think of the weather trio as being some of the very original legends. Buuuuttt yeah. Just a little bit of headcanon there.
