Description
Gosh I love Finneon and Tirtouga!This battle was so incredibly difficult to animate. If I could, I would have done a lot more such as moving shadows, lighting effects and a better bubble animation. (I'm aware the animation for the bubbles sucks!)
This is what a battle deep in an abyss would look like under the sea. There's not much light or life down such parts. I used the cave battle bg to create the abyss!
I did NOT make the pokemon sprites/animations. Nintendo did. Credits to Jefelin for the rips.

This backgorund is pretty good. At first the way the lighting was set off seemed kinda off to me, then I realized its supposed to be as if it were coming from a trainer's underwater torch or some-such and it looked better then. And man... the battle sprites look so much more natural in the underwater setting.
Pretty nice work with it :V

It's been said like a zillion times already, but they should hire you... or at least take fanwork into account when working on a new game!!!
Awesome stuff!

Nice! only thing that would be more awesome would be dropping some shadows.

Hey regardless of any "flaws" this is actually way better then the stuff Nintendo does for battle scenes.
Good job! keep it up

OMG they made a sea turtle!!! Technically Lapras is a sea turtle but, this one looks even more like a sea turtle.
And yeah, I totally love Finneon too.
I wish Nintendo would hire you, and put moving battle scenes like this in the game. It'd make it seem more real.

Awesome! I agree about the bubbles. I think the main reason is that they are moving uniformly, the more random the movement of the bubbles the more realistic it would look I think. All the better if you could increase the frames of the background instead of the current 2.

This is sweet, when is your game coming out, and I wanna know what a sky battle in the clouds would look like, and iff you could use normal pokemon?

Beautiful Backgrounds as always

I love all of the Bgs you've been making and I understand how difficult it is to animate them. xD

it looks very nice, the ambience of the piece, nice and dark

Yeah, the bubbles look very off.
I would have just made them start at the bottom, off screen, and float off the top of the image.
It just seems really weird that the bubbles roughly stay in the same place.
Overall, I really do like the image though.
Your battle screens always amaze me.

I always kept in mind some deep-water biome while I was thinking about my ideal PokΓ©mon game.
I mean, it's so fascinating.
You made an awesome job. For the bubble animation, I suggest you to take a look to the RSE one from the overworld.

Thanks and I agree. I have another deep-water biome other than this which is just a shallow coral reef. I haven't sprited it yet though.
I didn't really do any research on the bubbles at all haha. I remember them in Ranger doing something similar to this? I could be wrong.

Yeah the bubble animation is really choppy lol if they just raised up it would look good, the rest however looks amazing especially the lighting looking like a torch light.
π: 0 β©: 2
Oh and that's exactly the kind of lighting I wanted it to seem like! As if it was a torch shining in the dark.
