Hey all, I thought this could be a cool discussion topic now that the new website is up and this core feature exists. So, if you picked sprites for your signature, why did you pick them?
I went with my original team from Pokemon Yellow. I have many fond memories of playing through the game with this team and each happens to be my favorite Pokemon for their respective type.
favorites, but ill probably change it up from time to time.
My favorite pokemon is Rayquaza. Emerald is my favorite game and the ex era cards are my favorite to collect. Koffing/Weezing and their shiny sprites are at the top of my list as well
What I like about Starmie is, by nature of its inorganic design, it’s more a geometry than animal. It is itself a sort of symbol, an icon representing “Starmie”, and I just think that’s really cool.
A bunch of my favorite pokemon. My team is weak to grass and electric, but I love the water so much! Wailord is the pokemon from which I have the strongest memory from my youth. Mantas are my favorite animals ever, so naturally mantine is (one of) my favorite pokemon. Chinchou art is consistently amazing. The other 3 are just pokemon I really really like.
I hope these sprites are saved, otherwise this response is going to look stupid.
I started out trying my faves… but I didn’t like the way some looked. Then I tried some kind of geometric pattern thingy, and ended up with this. Shiny staryu was the first shiny that I caught, back in GS, so I chose it… also has great colors. I also tried using shiny leaves as decoration, but the sprites for those are small and don’t fill the space well.
It’s a cool idea to use an original team! I don’t really remember my team from my original playthrough of Pokemon FireRed, but I am pretty sure it was Charizard, Zapdos and Articuno lol.
I have been lovin Pokemon for a very long time, so it’s always interesting that even after all this time, I can still find new favourites. So, mine are Pokemon I’ve really come to love over the past few years. Exeggutor is the most recent one, I just love that guy. Kabutops is probably the longest standing favourite of the bunch, followed by Claydol.
