And we're done! It took about a week (most of which was spent farming Berries for PokéBlocks), but I managed to go through the Master Rank of every single Contest Spectacular in Omega Ruby and get the Contest Star Ribbon for my favorite Pokémon Absol! 🥳 🎀
A montage of my favorite Time Lapse: Reluctant Hero drawings, lol, including a few draw the squad memes. You can tell which ones are older and which ones are newer, haha. A couple of these were done years ago, with a mouse, on paint tool sai. The rest were done my beautiful precious baby cintiq.
Ya'll. I CAN PUT MORE THAN TEN IMAGES NOW. I am. Ecstatic.
sorry I'm late! here's some plumeria x lisia to celebrate cringetober day 9 <3
I've never seen these two shipped together b4 but after drawing them I've grown rather fond...
side note, what do y'all think their ship name would be? ik the Pokémon fandom likes "____ shipping" type names opposed to mashups like plumisia so I'm curious :)
Just realized I never posted this fanart either ! Drawn all the way back when Pokémon ORAS was released. Still sort of enjoy this one since I went for a way more minimalistic approach than my usual drawings.
In an interview with IGN, Polish artist Rafal Gosieniecki (@rafpointzero) mentioned that he was in charge of the redesigns of the villainous team members, while Ken Sugimori and his assistants were in charge of their settei. (source)
I finally found the person responsible for designing my favourite teams. This is important to me.
hello everyone! :] when i was watching gameplay of scarlet and violet on call w my friends i screamed aloud and scared them seeing these:
These (and 1 other in the town) are secret base decorations from ORAS, and when interacted with they say the same name and that they're from an 'unknown artist'. but given all the other art in the town was made by Brassius, I wanted to go look at these in ORAS
In ORAS, in the Lilycove Museum there is an artist (using the Kindler model probably because of the apron and gloves, ORAS doesn't have an artist trainer class) who says he just tried to submit his art to the museum and had it denied, and offers to sell it to you for ¥100000
(his dialouge if you refuse to buy anything ^ i can cry)
this museum also has a sculpture of a Shroomish by an "up and coming artist", and a painting of grass pokemon (...🌻 in RSE?)
(Brassius also has a Breloom on his team in his rematch)
Now, some guy selling his sculptures for a profit in the same museum that just rejected them seems to fit with Brassius saying there was a time he only cared about money and fame (possibly after his art was already featured in the museum) and made shallow trash
it makes sense that he wouldn't put his name on this old work, and that perhaps Surrendering Sunflora was an attempt at a return to form of his first popular work, the Shroomish. the last bit of evidence:
an artist saying it must be a brassius original, though the style is off.
(to be clear i don't think they were planning this for 8 years or anything (though the Kindler and shroomish specifically were added in ORAS) but that theyre tying Brassius into this Lilycove Museum guy retroactively, and its really cool!!! more people need to know!!)
So I'm going through all the Contests in Pokémon Omega Ruby with my favorite Pokémon, Absol (mainly because I want an Absol with the Ribbon you get for beating all the categories in Master Rank), and I just got done with the Cool Contest circuit -- I had remembered that there were special animations for when the audience appeal meter was maxed out, but I forgot just how over-the-top some of these were -- you can't tell me some of these weren't first drafts of what would ultimately become the Z-Moves in the Gen 7 games
Seriously, LOOK AT THIS SHIT
Mega Absol's on top of a rock pillar summoning a goddamn Breath Of The Wild style Blood Moon
I'd be surprised if I didn't win the Contest specifically because the theatre was overrun by newly-resurrected Bokoblins or something
