Description EDIT: Screwed up Emolga's markings!! D8 Fixed that. Thanks for telling me !!

Also!- A little exerpt written by that could be a description for my mysterious flower-

'These flowers, while unnamed in many regions, seem to grow in remote areas. When grown near enough to others, the pollen carried by electric type Pokemon can cause the forming of a Thunderstone inside the sterna. (is that what it's called?) The developing thunderstone provides great nutrition to the plant and causes it to grow larger. This goes on until the thunderstone is at usable size and its weight crushes the plant'
Rare plants in Unova, pg.38

==================

Since I haven't been feeling good this weekend for some reason, I decided to draw something cheerful and bright. This is my entry for the DMAP contest this week over at

I went...TOTALLY out of my comfort zone and painted this from start to finish. x__x Now my hands huuurt

That flower ignores the laws of physics for any flower. It's ugly. IGNORE IT D: Focus on the shiny.

Dunno what purpose it serves really. I'm thinking it has something to do with electricity (perhaps it gives off power and light when it blooms) and that's what drew Emolga to it.

Anywho, enjoy~

If I'm picked as the next caller, I call out Archen!

No problemo.

Always make sure you have a reference, so then you're absolutely sure you don't miss anything.

I kept going from DA back to SAI while working, but I probably should have had a ref IN SAI that I could have been constantly looking at

Fixed! Thanks again! I appreciate it <3

Actually, official artwork is your best bet. Try using Bulbapedia for future reference, cause that has official artwork and front and back sprites. I'm sure that'll work for references.

Yeah, I agree xD I used Bulbapedia when I did my Zorua picture :3 I was kinda rushing on this though xD Dunno why, since it's not judged till Monday x__x

ZOMG!! SO adorable!! <33333

That flower is not ugly! I think it's very beautiful~ I love the glow that it gives off~ It truly is very pretty. ^^

Gosh, I just ADORE how you draw your snowy backgrounds! So unique~

Emolga here looks to be very surprised to see a glowy flower out in the middle of no-where. XD I love it's expression! ^^ Emolga looks super cute, too~ You rock at drawing Pokemon!!

Keep it up, Chico! And I hope you'll get feeling better soon! I've been feeling kinda sick today as well. D: Acid Reflux.... DX

<33 Aw, thank you! I struggled with that darn thing, so I'm glad it looks pretty :'D I think its just blooming for the first time >w<

Thank you! To be honest this wasn't gonna be a forest scene at all (Emolga was gonna be floating in space lol) but I went with a meager BG cause it looked weird without it. aww thanks xD Forgive my pokemon spam! I'm obsessed lately ; D ;

You too! Acid Reflux SUCKS. :C

No problem! Anytime~ Yeah, drawing flowers isn't easy, especially for me. DX But I think you pulled it off very well~ You did a great job! Oh really? I wonder how it would look like if it were in full bloom. X3

^^ You're welcome! Oh? I wonder what the background would've looked if you chose a space themed BG, but I still think that this BG is awesome~ I love it!!! No prob!~ ^^
Aw, that's alright~ I don't mind at all! I love seeing your Pokemon pictures!

Thanks~ Yeah, it does!! D:

<3 Thank you~ I try to mix up my art but after playing Black nonstop for three days I can't help myself ; ;

You're welcome! I bet if you did work harder it would look even more awesome! But I still like how the flower looks now. Ah, I see! Well then, good luck with the contest!! ^^

No prob! I think mixing up your art is a good idea! ^^
Oh, Pokemon Black and White is already out? Awesome! I didn't know that, lol! I'll have to see if I can get one of them tomorrow or sometime. XD I bet it's tons of fun~

stripesthetiger13 [2011-03-13 01:44:38 +0000 UTC]

Oh my gosh, I just fell in love with this pokemon today.

I was playing White and like, found a guy who wanted a Bouldera (whatever they're called lol) for an Emolga. I had no clue what Emolga was, so I was like, sure whatever since they're right in the cave behind me.

So.

CUTE. <3

/ramble

Anyway, this is an adorable picture~! Sure is different seeing them walking like that. The flower kind of looks like one of those Time flowers from the Lucario movie, imo. Very pretty~~

I KNOW~

Thank you so much! This pose was extremely hard D: But I'm glad I went for it cause it was a challenge ^^

You know now that you mention it, it does! Maybe that's what it is

stripesthetiger13 In reply to Chico-2013 [2011-03-13 02:11:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm kind of overpowered. owo;; My highest level pokemon is a Stoutland because I don't particularly like grass types, and I chose that as my starter. (don't really like the others and what they evolve into) Second is Emolga/servine.

Where are you in it?

Well you pulled off the pose amazingly! And it's always good to challenge yourself.

Maybe! XD

Chico-2013 In reply to stripesthetiger13 [2011-03-13 02:24:32 +0000 UTC]

xD Aaah- Mine is still a Herdier xD I normally don't like grass types (More of a fire trainer) but I do like Snivy ok |D

I just beat the fourth gym xD I'm trying to keep all my pokemon as close together in levels as I can :3 I keep swapping them out too xD

My team (Currently as of this reply) Is..

Nagan the Servine
Buster the Herdier
Flint the Swoobat
Balout the Sandile
Mac the Tranquill
and Canicus the Archen

Contemplating swapping one of them out for Pansear though (Who I'm gonna later evolve int Simisear with a fire stone |3)

Oh oh oh, if you do the mystery gift you can get the liberty pass to get Victini, which is a Psy/Fire type! Very useful for the normal gym leader. It's also at level 24(?) I think. And you can keep battling it until you catch it.

Riiight now I have (no nicknames, I have no creativity. xD I might go back and name them all later) :

Stoutland level 45 (that I met at level 2! XD I'm actually proud of that, I've never done that in a pokemon game.)
Servine level 32 (like I said, not my favorite, but I like how it looks. I'm also a fire trainer.)
Emolga "Minipete" level 49 (I didn't name it XDD I got it from a guy named Manny in a house.)
Victini level 27
Blitzle level 17
and Tranquill level 23

What version do you have? I got white because it has more of the..... better seeming pokemon.

Chico-2013 In reply to stripesthetiger13 [2011-03-13 02:48:34 +0000 UTC]

I have done the mystery gift yes~ And it's HARD for me to catch for some reason |8C I've wasted almost 10 great balls already. And my Victini is coming up at level 15 for some reason 8D;

xD

Awesome team! 8D I actually caught my Lillipup at...I THINK either level 2 or 4. That might have been my Pidove though >w<;

I have Black. D: I didn't research much on what pokemon it has different from White though xD Shoot

Wow o: It only took me a couple tries, wish I knew how to help...
Thanks! So far I've only lost a battle once. :3; Against the Ground gym leader. Also I can start to be lazy- I got an Exp. Share xD I noticed that the newer games have easier to level pokemon. Kinda weird.

Ahh, well the main difference is the town of Black City/White Forest. Black city has many items you can get, and White Forest has many pokemon you can catch.

xD Aaah- What's happening to me is I keep killing it on accident x w x;; And when I have it whittled down right to practically 1 hp and even make it paralyzed or something similar it STILL refused to be mine.

Thankfully though I just managed to catch it a few hours ago XD

Oh really? That's pretty awesome

xD Aaah, I see!
