#random pokemon recolors

[bogleech]

Ok but I have seen you talk about this so many times, even referencing it in your old cartoons, so I gotta ask - when and how did you fall in love with neopets, like that?

Wait, is it that obscure now? I didn't know a single person from its inception to roughly 2010 who didn't have a neopets account. It was the single biggest gaming-esque name on the internet for years. Celebrities casually mentioned playing it, it got mainstream marketing tie-ins, it had plush toys people waited in line to buy up and a TCG made by the same company as Magic the Gathering. It's not that I especially "fell in love with neopets" like it's a niche thing but that there was a time it was almost outselling Pokemon, so it's just another huge cultural phenomenon that was a big part of everyone's lives during my teens to twenties, and hits my special interest in creature design since it has THOUSANDS (beyond the pets alone) ranging in quality from extremely creative to just plain heinous. I personally only got invested in it when they introduced the mutant pets, though, because it started out having almost like a "rule" against making any pets that were "ugly." They'd joke about it as a prank for instance, and originally only featured the mutants as part of a storyline they never intended players to actually adopt. They even had a fake alternate version of the site with fake "adoptions coming soon" and somehow didn't anticipate the userbase genuinely wanting the slime creatures.

The Chia and Aisha were my favorites but mainly the chia because that kind of "scuzzy" creature was already my own design aesthetic, polar opposite of the site's established style and reminded me of if Jeff Goldblum got fused with a tardigrade instead of a fly:

Is that just me? I feel like the tardigrade similarity jumps right out but I think it was an accident and they were possibly actually thinking of the rotting giant from Nausicaa:

The fact that they intended its design to be unlovably ugly and were surprised anyone wanted it only made it more sympathetic. Eventually they made mutants available and I got fully invested into playing, at the time having to spend hours a day on their little flash games until I could afford a mutant after months of labor. But then a couple of years later they just abruptly decided they really didn't feel like having its design around anymore and "updated" it, which back then was automatic for all pets owned by all players with no going back:

It had unfortunately been fairly common that they'd just completely, totally redo a pet like this with no warning and no user poll to make sure it's what anyone wanted. You just had to pray they never did it to your favorites.

All the other mutants in that earlier image would also get completely changed or never released at all. They still kept some of the other "gross" mutants and would make even grosser, so that wasn't even part of the reasoning. Just the random whims of mad gods I guess. I think what killed the game for a lot of people was actually when they did this to basically everyone at once, standardizing almost all the pet artwork so they could wear clothes in their new dressup system. It wasn't as drastic as replacing a sludge guy with some kind of hairy leaf guy but it did eliminate hundreds of technically unique designs from the site, and I found someone else's examples they put together so I thankfully don't have to do it myself:

If anyone's not familiar enough with neopets or didn't figure that out from the last paragraph, the ones on the right are just recolors of the same exact art as all members of their species with added accessories (now wearable items) Players used to work hard to get pets they wanted based on their unique poses and personality, but you could only keep the original art for a small number of these. The customization feature kind of attracted a different new fandom, from what people say, but it never approached a fraction the site's peak, which is probably how the brand wound up getting sold to some NFT bros who aren't even involved in the site itself and supposedly never even spoken to its remaining staff outside some business emails? This is unrelated to the brief period it was bought by scientologists and the siterunners had to fight back against their propaganda leaking into it. I really didn't expect to turn this response into a mini article, I should really just make a thing on bogleech.com about it sometime. Some of my tumblr mutuals to this day are people I met through the neopets fandom and probably have equally lengthy memories/complaints.

this is the kind of bloodsucker y'all were expecting for halloween, right?

i cannot be stopped. anyways

happy halloween! here's... this. don't question it too much

new mesh, ripped from pokemon sun/moon

contains both a body preset, as well as a skin detail that adds the mesh parts, with only one swatch this time bc buzzwole's shiny kinda sucks

mesh parts are not compatible with dresses/fullbody outfits, and may experience texture overlapping with some tops!

also theres a 'stray polygon' that appears in cas with the mesh parts but not ingame. cope with it like it do :P

both disabled for random, both with custom thumbnails, etc etc

feel free to recolor or mesh edit as always, but please don't paywall this or edits of it in any form!

The Little Ones [Event]

"Yuuto?"

Yuuto's gaze flickered towards the doorframe where Lucius stood. The Silvally eyes glowed bright as his RKS System purred loudly from Lucius current use of his Memory. His eyes, spikes, drives, and fin membrane were trickling with a mix of the colors purple and pink. It was clear that he must have been on high alert over the potential of someone breaking into his home. The demigod eyes momentarily flickered between those who were in the room, processing the presence of Kali and Rui. After studying them for a bit, he proceeded to shift close to Yuuto.

"Are you ok...? Your shoulder..." Lucius whispered. He raised his front talons up and very gently rested it on the opposite shoulder the Mewtwo was injured at.

Yuuto relaxed at Lucius' touch before moving a hand to make contact with Lucius' talons. "I'm fine. I'm...ok...but we have a bigger problem here. A much...complex one....." He made it a point to look between Kali and Rui.

Lucius did gaze at the two Pokemon, though his gaze much longer on Kali. Afterwards, he shifted his attention to Lucius, who stared back at him and made a face. A silent exchange occurred between the two of them before eventually Lucius sighed and looked towards the anons and other individuals in the room.

"Please...give us a bit of time to....decipher...all of this. Sorry about this."

....

....

...

In a blink of a eye, you found yourself outside of the room as the door closed. Whatever conversations happened behind the door were now told in quiet whispers that you couldn't quite hear. It was clear that it was gonna be a while before you would be able to learn what was going. As such, you were gonna to have to wait. However, waiting was quiet a boring task...so you choose to explore more of this castle. You find yourself walking around until you ended up walking through a door and-wait a minute. I don't think a random village should be randomly behind a door espesically one that sharply contrast the kingdom. The door would shut behind you before you can return to where you came. Well...this is a bit inconvenient. Well...I suppose you have no choice but wander more.

And you do that, you walk around this new location. Nothing of note seems to stand out when it comes to this village. From what you can tell, it was somewhere in the mountains with the only weather being prominent here being that of snow. You see your fair share of strange looking Pokemon, who waved at you as a greeting. It wasn't before long that you end up bumping into something.

"AH!" As you moved backwards, you are greeted by a young Tyrogue on the ground dressed in winter gear. He was laying on his back, having fallen back from colliding into you. His cheeks were bright red in embarrassment, and you can see his eyes were threatening to shed tears. He quickly sat up and look up to you. "I-I-I'm s-sorry!"

(Made by Strobotic on PFQ)

"Finny, are you ok!?" the Tyrogue immediately turned around to look over to the two figures that quickly approached him. One was a dark colored Eevee with a gem on her forehead while the other was that of a Ogerpon. Both Pokemon were dressed for the weather and seemed more focused on the Tyrogue.

(Art by me)

(Base by Sixbane. Recolored and edit by me)

"I-I-I'm fine! D-don't worry!" the Tyrogue stammered. You can tell he was really trying his hardest not to cry in front of these two as they slowed down when they were close to him. Between the two of them, you can tell the Ogerpon was the most worried based on the way he was looking him over. "Ha-Haru!!!"

"I just want to make sure you didn't break anything! Dad will be upset if something happens to you!" the Ogerpon huffed.

Ignoring the complaints coming from the Tyrogue and the Ogerpon, the Eevee turned their attention to you and tilted her head. "....You don't look like you belong here.

[To get myself back into this blog and work out what I want to do for the next part, I will be having a mini event (I say mini but really this will last till the start of next year) where these three Pokemon are available for asks. They do have connection to the main characters on this and may even know them! For now, meet Haruto the Ogerpon, Finn the Tyrogue and Nova the Eevee! I will make a proper page for them and all the stuff needed in a few moments.]

can u make me a recolor skin of random pokemon plse

Sorry, but sprite requests must be for a specific Pokemon and colour.

[jovialturtleface]

They're not going to see it because they probably found my art through the tags but I always appreciate when my fanart gains traction again even if it's just someone and their friends liking my post...

My very rough looking Pokemon fanart from 2017/2018 gets reblogged sometimes, I don't know why but I guess some people like it's imperfections.

That Monster Roadtrip drawing is my most popular one right now, usually if I get a random like or reblog at night it's probably cause of that one. Tbh I drew that for a chance of winning a free game code but didn't win but it's nice that despite that people like it so much.

I want to draw more Um Jammer Lammy art because people who enjoy it seem cool, also I like Rammy and she deserves more art. I know she's just a hell recolor of Lammy but I literally have an OC who is a recolor of an OC.

Can you do a minior review? I've been really into it lately for some reason

I always kind of felt like Minior should've had a bit of lore relating it to Lunatone and Solrock, seeing as they're both strange floating outer space rocks. Just me?

Regardless, Minior's case form is neat, if for no other reason than it has no real eyes and no mouth. It's also pretty nicely designed—a neutral brown to contrast with the core colors with just the tips of the core peeking out, and a few well-placed triangles for good measure.

The only thing that bugs me about it is that random circle by the right eye. Like, why is that there, exactly?

Also, side note: I always thought it was weird that the 'dex says that the core can die without its shell, but also it breaks out of its shell whenever its health is down to less than half. Like, how is the shell getting back on it, exactly? Feels like one of those things that's neat in theory, but doesn't quite work out in terms of mechanics.

However, I do like the mental image of Minior falling to earth like shooting stars and people rushing out to save them by catching them. That's just sweet.

Speaking of sweets, Minior's core form is based off Konpeitō, a type of sugar-based star candy:

Which is a pretty neat thing to reference without being too overt about it (the fact that most Western audiences wouldn't even recognize what it's referencing shows its solid regardless of theme). It kind of feels like a Kirby enemy or something.

In terms of design, I like Minior's face a lot. Instead of actually being static, it's instead separate from the face entirely, staying still instead of rotating with the body. I think I could've done without the mouth, but it's a fun way to handle things regardless.

I also do like the line's color gimmick (especially with how it's based on diet) and how it makes for a fun surprise because you don't know the color when looking at the meteor form... though admittedly, I feel like it's missing something. I think it just bugs me that the body is really just mono-color, making each of the forms akin to a shiny recolor. It makes sense due to the konpeitō thing, but I don't feel like it's as striking as, say, Vivillion, which changes pattern as well as entire palettes.

Speaking of shinies, making the shiny for it black with colored markings looks fantastic, and is a really nice way to handle a palette swap for a Pokemon that already has a palette swap gimmick. Plus it fixes the monotone color thing that kind of didn't sit with me with the regular core colors.

My only nitpick (outside of the color thing, and like I said, that's understandable because of the gimmick) is that random circle on the left side. Like the circle on the meteor form, I don't get why it's there.

Anyway, as a whole, this is a charming Pokemon with a fun gimmick. Definitely worth the extra effort shiny hunting this one though.

hello dreamy; hope you’re well ❤️ we’re pretty similar in some aspects :o i love making gfx the most too since it’s something i wish to be good at + pairing fonts, figuring out colour palettes and executing ideas in the form of a graphics really is challenging but also super rewarding! i draw from time to time as well and i really love doing it, but since i rarely ever not draw from a reference or change things ever so slightly, it’s not something that tickles my imagination as much as a gfx would hehe since i usually have to readjust colourings or sometimes colour from scratch, i really like giffing too! but it’s probably the most mundane out of all of them since there’s nothing much different about the process dkfjdj oh, you’re absolutely fine! a good friend is like a seasoned professional when it comes to typos, and i’ve finally mastered decoding 90% of what she says… reading through your posts is like a calming breeze after talking to her—no missing words, random exclamations or extra letters 😂 but i think it’s a charming point for her too; i immediately know it’s her when i receive a text that butchered up! the whole biasing thing reminds me of a mutual of mine :D she’s always confused on who her bias is and ends up biasing the one member who is a complete opposite of her initial bias so we joke around by predicting who her bias will be once she starts getting into a new group. what’s your favourite hair colour on chan (and/or binnie haha) + what are some things that you associate with him? (i apologize for the late ask as i have been struggling with tumblr for the past couple of days ^^;) - 🌨

i'm gonna put a cut cause this is long

Hi my lil rain cloud, omg yes there’s just so much you can do with gfx, its a constant learning curve, and it’s so full of experimentation that its just always so fun. I’ve always been tempted to open up requests for gfx but its so hard to think of how to get ppl to send stuff that would actually inspire me. The best I’ve done is someone randomly sent me an ask for a gfx with Minho and they asked if it could be yellow and it ended up being a lot of fun to try to do, the request was so vague it was easy to be completely creative.  I also cannot draw unless I have a good reference, it’s like I can picture something so perfectly in my mind but the second my pen touches paper or tablet I suddenly can’t figure out how to proportion anything. But if I have something to constantly look at and compare myself to I can match it pretty well. But I agree gifs feel easy most of the time in comparison, unless I’m trying to recolor something nightmare inducing like purple stage lighting, or making things extra fancy by basically turning gifs into gfx. Giffing is a good hobby for watching tv or something, because it’s just a constant process so I can pay enough attention to the tv to know what’s happening while also cranking out sets, so I like that about it. I’m glad my grammar issues are at least legible, just lots of random commas that I hope are remotely ok lmao

Omg red is definitely my favorite hair color on Chris, like all time, I think the more ppl hated it the more I loved it, was obsessed with it. It just felt so punk, and then it faded to a pretty pink and I was happy all over again lmao. I also really loved the highlighted brown during double knot, that was such a gorgeous color and I think it really suited his skin tone a lot. I’m partial to blonde binnie, like ex or all in that was SUCH a gorgeous color on him, I do wish he got to do more fun colors tho, he’s said a few times he wants pink hair and I think changbin should get what he wants lol

Things I associate with Chris, omg does everything count or does that just really bring out the loser in me lmao but fr space, the ocean, oversized clothing, skateboarding, wolves obviously, the 🤙🏻 emoji, Pokemon, puppies, those thick silver chain necklaces lol, I will stop this will get embarrassing gdhgd

Pokesims 4: Legends Arceus to Sims 4 conversion but it’s only like half the cast this time

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

ok hi. sorry it’s only half but if i forced myself to do everyone it’d take 500 years. so i’m going to try satiating y’alll with half of them for now! there are 17 characters not pictures that will be in part 2.

35 .package files! pick and choose who you want, or dump them all in!

most of the hairs have hatchops, some are, uh.... janky though. rei and akari do not and their hats are merged with their hair because i didn’t want to bother remeshing the missing half

some outfits are full-body, for which you’ll need a null-foot cc. here’s one.

all should be disabled for random and nothing is genderlocked

you’re free to edit the meshes or recolor as much as you please, however a link back would be cool!

DL : SFS (No adfly)

also im plugging the pokesims server. come party if you like pokemon and/or sims

[ptgigi]

Could you make it so that we can actually choose the types we want (instead of having to randomize it) and we actually get pictures of what the Pokemon would look like in their new types?

Thanks for the suggestions!

I had a bit of a back and forth on the type picking, as my initial thoughts are it removes the need for the generator (ex. if you wanted to draw a Fire Pikachu, you don't need this generator). But I can think of a few use cases for it (ex. getting a drawing prompt for a random Pokemon that's now a Fire type) so I'll add that to the feature request list!

For the images though, the primary intent of the generator was to use for drawing challenges. It's also infeasible for me to make images of every Pokemon form in every type combination (1200+ Pokemon forms x 324 type combinations = 388,800+ results). No one person has the time for that as type swaps are usually more than just recoloring the Pokemon.

That said, it reminded me of a sprite recolorer idea I'd tried out a few years back, so I'll add a Pokemon sprite recolorer to my 'Future Ideas' list as a separate app idea!

[the-lightest-shadow]

I am bored out of my mind could I be sent asks of random things and/or motivation to work on my WIP art/writing, start new art, or fill out some inbox stuff? {No ask limitations of any kind, just please keep anything overly controversial to a minimum.}

Also feel free to send some Pokemon related asks or shiny recolor ideas to @24-7-pokemon, some aesthetic prompts to @randomthetics, some headcanons of yours to @a-headcanon-blog, or some worldbuilding headcanons {or even OC personal questions} to @pokemon-breeder-breeze!

[gynandromorph]

all of the dupe animations are pink because i'm doinf a randomized palette run of pokemon black where i can only have pink pokemon on my team and it's going to be such a pain to recolor them lmfaooo
