Description Here's my version of flygon... i was thinking of making a mix of dragon/insect first, but it felt strange so i changed to a pure bug. It's a harsh mixture of various insects like dragonflies, mosquitos and antlions.
I like how it turned out, but i think the body looks a bit too stiff and that the... "brown sticks" (what's the english name for this bodypart? Many two-winged insects has thouse to steer with) under the wings looks a bit.. off.
Eerin [link] and I agreed to make a "realistic version of flygon" each, so we then could compare the two. Here's her neat version [link]
I thinks it's fun to see how serval parts turned out very alike on thouse two

(btw... how what's the short cut to make links with persons avatars in them?)

It should have been a Bug/Dragon. Nice pic.

It's too insect like. No dragon like elements that match with its type combination. Would be fine if Flygons were bug/flying types.

You do know that Flygon is based on the concept of the DRAGONFLY, right?

nooneimportant97 In reply to sprites4all [2013-02-11 01:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I know that. It is that since flygon is part dragon type there should be some dragon like elements. Here there is none.

Also, nice necromency with responing to a month old comment.

None?
The basic body shape is completely draconian, the shape of the torso, the size and placement of the arms and legs, the length and structure of the tail.
In fact, only the secondary characteristics look bug-like.
Month old comment? Where do you think you are, YouTube? This comment is a month old, not a year old, nice going being a twat about it.

Yeah, no. I am going to have to disagree with you. Besides the feet nothing looks draconic to me. We will have to agree to disagree. If anything even the creators note disagrees with you. He meant to make it look completely bug like.
And hey, if you are going to get mad because you are getting called out for commenting on old forgotten comments then just don't do it. No need to get hostile.

Have a good day, and good luck with all of your endeavors.

Months-old comments are not old, untouchable comments, two year-old comments are, perhaps if you didn't have such a distorted perception of time you could stop yourself from being a cunt about it.

Well, I won't be responding to your next comment, so insult me as much as you want, if that makes you feel better about yourself.

I've could say, this Flygon is really more of a Bug-Type than a Dragon Type, but about your description about Flygon that looks a fusion of a dragon and dragonfly. Nice job, by the way, Flygon is my 5th favorite Pokémon.

Octoboy-the-8th [2008-08-22 04:15:52 +0000 UTC]

Beautiful. I love the detail in this one. The tranparence in the wings and tail fan are probably my favourite features. Though why do the antennae go forward, when the real flygon's go backward?

Just like roselia, I look at them, and wonder how Drew could use these in a beauty contest. Not that this pokemon isn't amazing, but it's not beauty in the conventional way.

I just felt that antennae worked better if angled forward, but... Hmm... They’re quite long, supposedly it would angle them backwards when flying? The one in the picture is hovering, standing still in the air, so it has angled them forward for the moment?

I know nothing about Drew I'm afraid, but I guess it may be from the anime..?
That many "beautiful" pokémon has been "uglyfied" by me is partly because I like them much better that way and partly because I like to annoy n00bs who goes *zomg you made it ugly, I hate you* XD

Drew was a character who was in the Pokemon anime. He appeared in some episodes taking place in Hoenn.

Drew (who's name was Shuu in Japan) was known for his talent in entering pokemon in beauty contests. He used things such as roselia, and flygon. I've never seen him at work, but I'm told his pokemon were crowd stoppers.

you mean ?

you take the user's name: eerin

and in front of "eerin" you put "icon"

so you have "iconerrin"

then you put "iconeerin" in between two colons ::

so you have :icon eerin: (just dont put a space between "icon" and "eerin")

and you have

Really awesome. I love Flygons and this has to be the coolest version of one I've seen. It looks very eerie, sorta alien-like, but still recognizable if you're familiar with the normal Pokemon. I wouldn't want one to get *too* close to me though *is an admitted bug-o-phobe* Awesome job!
