Lol this picture is hecka old. xD I redrew the picture, and he's wearing a white hat. And I thought his hair was black. The manga and games show his hair as black.

This is pretty good!! I like how you tried to do all the main characters in the games, and they actually look like the game characters! Great job with the bios too!

The white is Ruby's hat just FYI. XD I used to think it was his hair too.

Hah, I love the expressions on their faces: especially that goofy grin on Ethan's face or the look of sheer joy on Lyra's. My favorite here has to be the one you call Blue--I call her by her semi-official name, Leaf, because I like distinguishing her from the manga's blue, whose hair, face, and eyes are different despite wearing the FRLG outfit.
She happens to be my favorite Pokemon protagonist, so I'm glad you did her justice. I, too, absolute love her hair--you drew her awesome hat really well too. Her expression is so peaceful and happy--and I'm glad she's holder Charmander, also my favorite! But I think her skirt and legs are by far the best drawn here--you seem to be good at those in general, Red's jeans as well as Lyra's overalls and socks look particularly good, but Leaf here takes the cake. The proportions and shading are just perfect. I could rave some more about how well you drew her, but I'll stop now. Well done!

Yeah, I never leave sparse comments. I figure that artists want feedback, and since I lack the ability to create art myself, I make up for it with a critical eye instead.
Really, nobody? I suppose it depends on which trainer people like best: doubtless one's more likely to think their favorite trainer is the one that's best drawn. I like almost everything about your Leaf! I'm very excited to hear that you're planning to make another version of this picture. About the only disappointments I have about Leaf are her top (for some reason it lacks depth--it doesn't pop out like the rest of her. It's not bad by any means! It's just that her head and lower body is so well done that the torso sticks out) and the fact that she has Ethan/Squirtle/Charmander/fellow from Black&White blocking her--she's too awesome to have anything standing in front of her and blocking the view! She and Red are the original champions after all.
Yeah, I mentioned that: Blue wears Leaf's outfit. But she still looks like Blue: she has blue eyes, and a different hairstyle (I am very happy that you're using Leaf's hairstyle and not Blue's here), and a vastly different personality (not that we know too much about Leaf's, but I expect it's a little like Red's).
And there's another long comment. What can I say, she's my favorite! Well, and Lance too--I could go on about him as well, but he's not a player character.

Oh, you're very welcome. I have to say that I really like your style. I saw something featured on your main page--something about a Pokemon Contest RP (is that fun, by the way?)? The character illustration you drew for that one was fantastic as well. You just seem to have a knack for it--and I mean, it's not just the drawing itself--I especially like the way you color these things. Keep it up, it's great.
Welll, she doesn't have to hold Charmander again! He can be at her side or something now--after all, if she's top flaunting (it sounds almost mischevious, the way you put it! But I like it.) then we wouldn't want Charmander in the way. He's already done that before. As for her cheery expression--excellent! I see her as someone who has this certain joie de vivre, you know? I feel like she loves Pokemon, and nature, and just the world around it. But then... hm. Part of me wants to see her with this awesome, confident expression, like we often see with Red: after all, everyone depicts her as a girly girl, but I imagine she loves battling too (she was our first Champion, chronologically) so a determined, confident, or disciplined look would work well too. Whichever you think works best with the others, I trust your judgment.
LOL, now that you mention it... yeah, I am not sure sitting down would be the best idea in that skirt. I mean, not that I'd complain or anything, but I think she's too dignified/demure to do something like that. Although I mean who knows, she's willingly adventuring around the world, riding bikes and Pokemon in a miniskirt, so maybe she's really confident about herself?
So... yeah. But if you want to avoid that ( ), then couldn't she just be... standing in the front row? I mean, the others are staggered, yeah, but perhaps you could do the two row thing with everyone, and then have Leaf and Red on each side framing them, as the originals? That way nobody blocks the view of them, and they don't block the view of anybody else.
BINGO! Serious and badass. Precisely. You should see how I describe her in my FR/LG story, lol. She wouldn't flaunt herself. I mean, like I said, she still wears that sort of revealing outfit--but I just think she does it because it's comfortable to adventure in and she doesn't care, not because she wants to flaunt anything. I feel she's probably the strongest of the heroines in Pokemon--that's probably why I like her. Damsels in distress and pretty pretty princesses get old.

Thank you!
Hmm the contest rp is something I made with a friend...we started it about 3 months ago, and have been trying to get members ever since, but not many people are joining at all, which is really sad. I say its fun, but no one is joining, so...I might discuss somethings with my friend so maybe we will change the purpose to get more people to join? C:
Thank you! Although my coloring's improved a lot, so I the new picture might look even better!
Pfft that would apply to all the Pokegirls then! They all basically wear skirts or short shorts! XD All really confident and adventurous. It's fun to draw them all the same!
I'll figure something out. Once I get the picture laid out, drawing it is a bit easier haha!
Pfffftt I really hate Damsels in distress. Maybe for just a moment, and then they kick ass. That's my style! 8'D

Ahh. Well, I'd join but I'm afraid I'd be next to useless, since I know nothing at all about Contests. I thought it looked intriguing, since I hadn't seen many Pokemon RPs around, but I suppose it might just be that I'm not looking hard enough.
Even better, you say? Well, then there's something to look forward to...
Welll... I have less positive views about the other heroines. Kris has bizarre hair. May seems rather girly, in general. Dawn... I don't know what she's thinking. Her skirt's shorter than even Leaf's, to the point of sheer impracticality, especially for her climinate. That outfit she wears in Platinum? If she goes out in snow without pants, she's going to get frozen. She's insane! She was a real low for Pokemon heroines, I think--too much emphasis on cuteness and chic. Lyra was a little better, but those overalls make her look like a hayseed. The Black&White heroine just... well, I won't even go there.
Needless to say, Leaf's the only one who's outfit seems justified. She has a sporty top and shoes, a fantastic hat, wonderful hair, and yes she has a skirt, but given her generally serious countenance, the skirt seems to make her seem "badass" rather than cutesy. I call her confident and adventurous--I call the others... well, far less flattering things.
I mean. I could really see May, Dawn, and Lyra as damsels in distress. Perhaps not Kris, she looked serious enough, but her hair seems to defy gravity so she annoys me too.

Oh it's ok! C:
There's actually a ton of RPs out there. xD
There's more, but I'd have to look around to find them all haha.
Really? May wears such a biker-outdoorsey kinda outfit. I always figured she looked the least girly, and her manga character portrayed that so well!
FFFF I agree. Dawn needs to change that oufit of hers.
I rather like White, but those shorts are really short. Like REAAALLLY short.
I used to really hate May, but now I like all the Pokegirls. xD
Dawn IS a damsel in distress. May...ahh not so much. Maybe Lyra. She makes me think of Mario. xD Kris was the first Pokegirl created, so she's pretty sporty, but she looks like she'd be irritating. Pokemon people often have gravity-defying hair...it's what makes it Pokemon!! XD

iaiusjello In reply to Fishenod [2011-01-22 20:29:05 +0000 UTC]
Huh. Yeah, there are quite a few, I suppose. I probably wouldn't have much time to devote to them, sadly. It's a shame, though, because it sounds like it'd be fun.
May: Well... she wears biking shorts, yes. But her expressions are always cutesy and she's associated with contests in a lot of the official art, which underlines girlishness. Sure, she might wear athletic-looking clothes, but it comes across more as accessorizing then anything else. Compare her look with Leaf's--both athletic and serious. Why did you used to hate her, incidentally?
Dawn: Yeah, she really needs to change it.. or at least wear tights underneath that outrageously short skirt. Seriously, Leaf's was pretty short to begin with--I don't know how they decided to go even shorter for the next heroine. The snow jacket is shorter still... and it's for COLD weather? They do realize the winter coat is useless if she's going to be getting cold drafts up her skirt and/or getting her legs turned into icicles? I don't know what they were thinking. She's the definition of fanservice, which is disturbing considering how young the heroines are supposed to be: either it's really creepy, or they're just encouraging little kids to get into that kind of thing.
Lyra: Yeah... Lyra is way too cutesey too. I can't imagine someone like her standing up to Silver. There's a reason there's a lot of fanart that has him picking on her, I think.

I hated May because of the way the anime made her. Weak, pathetic, Damsel in Distress, and girly.
I loved her again after reading the manga. xD
Dawn's outfit is so adorable in my opinion, but SOOOO not suited for travelling!!
I see more fanart of Silver and Lyra as a couple. I've never seen him picking on her, unless it's like a couple thing. o-O

iaiusjello In reply to Fishenod [2011-01-23 08:04:15 +0000 UTC]
Well... yeah. I strongly dislike her anime appearance. But I can't shake the feeling that her anime appearance is based how the game designers intended her. She doesn't look very tough in the promotional art, after all.
Really? I agree it's completely unsuitable for traveling, but Dawn's outfit seems closer to "skanky" than "adorable" to me. She's way too young to be wearing that stuff.
Lyra and Silver... well, I suppose it's mostly the whole Team Rocket costume thing.

Tajiri Satoshi mentioned that the manga portrayed his perception of the Pokemon world the best. So I trust the manga interpretations of the characters more. Therefore, I ignore the anime personalities. The anime makers had a child target audience in mind, so they had to make the girls...well...how they appeared.
I wouldn't say Skanky. She never actually shows anything.
To be honest, I don't think the characters look their age at all. Honestly, 10 year olds are short midgets. And they don't have boobs. All the girls have breasts, like seriously?

iaiusjello In reply to Fishenod [2011-01-25 05:06:00 +0000 UTC]
Well, yeah.. the anime world is definitely different from the original game world, considering how different the League structure is and all that. But the fact that the manga *world* is more accurate doesn't necessarily mean that its personalities are. Like you said: the anime made the girls act just the way they appeared. Well, surely they appear that way for a reason?
Um, she doesn't need to show *anything* to be skanky. Considering her notional age, I'm really glad she doesn't. But seriously, her skirt is so short that the slightest breeze would create a wardrobe malfunction, much less climbing, biking, and all the other stuff she's supposedly doing too. The top isn't much better. It's too "tween superstar," which is another awful inappropriate trend that's been happening lately.
Yeah. The breasts. That's a huge issue I have with them being ten. I get it, they want to appeal to kids. But if they're going to sexualize the characters, they have to make them older so that I. little kids don't get the wrong ideas and II. they look their age. I mean, Kris was fine. May was really, really, pushing it. I could buy her as an early bloomer, but come on, she ought to have been 12 at least. Her biker outfit would let her get away with that. Leaf though... as much as I like her, she was way too curvy to be ten. Or even twelve. Thirteen or fourteen seems about right--it's not that she has big boobs or anything, she's probably smallish for a teenager, but she HAS to be a teenager for it to even make sense. Dawn and Lyra both look about thirteen (although they dress like foolish pre-teens), and White actually looks older. I actually think White's pretty skanky too, with her tight shirt and ridiculous shorts but at least they aged her up. Leaf is probably the most normal/modest looking of them all, but her age is all wrong: if they aged her up like White, but kept a similar look, then that would be an excellent model for future protagonists to follow.
I mean, good grief, none of the male characters have this issue. I mean, yes, aside from the original Red, they also look like young teenagers... but at least they're not sexualized. But I guess that's only really Dawn and White that's an issue, and White's at least the right age. The other girls just look more developed than tehy should.

Yeah I found that out after I drew a picture. But some people interpret it as his hair, since the game doesn't show it. The manga does. xD I seriously love Ruby. He's just all kinds of awesome.
I'm doing a redraw of this...soon....he's going to have a white hair and black hat. xD
