Description Time to upload some old stuff here. 


So I participated in Pokemon xy countdown on tumblr and I was assigned to the last day (was very very surprised by that).  Click here for the post on tumblr.


Partially satisfied with how this turned out. You can actually see how I got bored and in a hurry with clouds but eeh I was finishing this last minute. You don't even want to know how many ideas I changed for my entry (and I have most of them all sketched out and ready for lineart. Talking about a way to waste your precious time OTL ).


Everything else is self explanatory. 


EDIT: Changed Spritzee's position.

The perspective here, along with the coloring, shading, and skies, are simply beautiful! Love your artwork, friend. You have a simplistic but gorgeous style.

...color me..."timber"... and call my dog..."Tubataha"...???? hahahahha, what the?


huuuuhh, but glad you liked it. Now I know that I completely missed the atmosphere of that town and that those stairs actually don't exist and that bar was a bar for roller skating but hahaha, it was fun interpreting from the 2 sec clip in a trailer. x3

ARGH MY GOSH AFTER FINISHING THE GAME THIS PICTURE BECOMES 100x BETTER. ;u;

I just love your art so much, and that countdown page was just great, eeeee! As always I adore the shading on your work, they're just so great, like seriously c: Was there any particular reason you chose Spritzee and Helioptile for the Pokemon in this picture? OuO I'd love to hear your insight~


I hope you draw more XY art because I can't get enough of it! Hm, what's your favorite Pokemon in this generation by far? :'D

Leptocyon In reply to GreenDoodle [2013-11-16 06:44:25 +0000 UTC]

It does???? Oh my. I shall get back to it after I finish the game... whenever that might be. x)


Any particular reason? No, not really. I just needed two Pokemon who are small enough (since I had in mind where I want to put Pokemon) and really these two first came to my mind as options.


haaaaa....hahaha...ha...a yeah, I would like to draw more of everything but heh no time. (I did draw a Floette quick thingie recently tho: lediacaria.tumblr.com/tagged/L… :3

Aaaah I can hardly pinpoint at just one Pokemon. I'm using really a lot of Pokemon, both old and new so I didn't try all of them. But both fossils are even better than I expected (and I had high expectations from them) and Honedge is super awesome as well. Aaaah and Skrelp~, oh god that thing kicks ass and is super adorable above all! I'm a bit dissapointed with Fennekin move pool though. I have a Braxien at level 33 or something and its strongest fire type attack is still ember! 0.o (I don't use flame charge because it's physical attack and my Braxien has some poor attack stats) It annoys to battle like that.

GreenDoodle In reply to Leptocyon [2013-11-18 05:28:48 +0000 UTC]

Well, I don't know. Maybe it was just me! XD Cause I didn't take part in spoilers or trailers much for the game so seeing that windmill again was quite nostalgic!

Oh, hehe, cool!


Aw, the link is broken or something. D:

But, I'm sure it's beautiful, haha! Wow, that movepool seems quite unreliable. XDD; Though, the same can be said about most of the Fire starters with fire type attacks haha (I mean, the torchic line doesn't get another good fire type move until mid-30s if I remember correctly?) I get you~

Ho ly CRAP!

This is fantastic! Like goodness this needs to be a poster like now XD

I only got 3 nit picks

1. Like what Penguin said you probabaly should have had the Spritzee more to the top right corner. Not only does it make it less cluttered and fills the empty space. It also gives the girl something to look at rather than looking off in the distance.

2. The girls face is a little weird. It just doesn't look like a real face. It just looks plasterd on there. This is probably due to her having that one curved line and that the side of her head is a little to flat.

3. That Helioptile should not be on that rail! Who does that guy think he is?! Rails are ONLY for Skating!!! And he does not look like a skating master!!!

Amazing work!

Leptocyon In reply to Lion-Oh-Day [2013-11-07 17:38:48 +0000 UTC]

oh wow, glad you like it so much.


Yeah, I see what you mean and now that you guys pointed it out it really stings eye so I'll probably end up fixing that. x) The girl will still look off in the distance since Spritzee is positioned behind her so she couldn't look at its direction even if I wanted it to. 


But I kind of can't see what you mean under number 2.  That one curved line is a jaw line and without it the face looks really really weird. I even tried to look at my head at this position and can't actually see what's THAT much off. (Okay, I see some other things which are off with the anatomy but I don't care that much to fix it now, but not actually what you're pinpointing.


Hahaha, I imagined that bar more like a stairway handle (since it looked more like it in the trailer I used as a reference) x)

And I don't know what you're talking about. Helioptiles are widely known as pro skaters.

Oh, no need to follow that guy's nitpicks. I highly disagree with his third reason - nobody's skating there right now.

Leptocyon In reply to Rose-Supreme [2013-11-08 15:44:41 +0000 UTC]

Wrong! That Helioptile is obviously skating there right now... in his own... Pokemon...way.

good job leptocyon^^

but frescora looks very warm in this picture oO ^^

how good (or bad) you found the new gen. of pokemon?




👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Leptocyon In reply to WDino92 [2013-11-07 17:29:30 +0000 UTC]

When I was drawing this Frescora wasn't even known as a city, I had only trailers for a reference. I saw that there were some windmills, thought it would make a nice scene and drew it (I had no idea where will they be put so I couldn't predict the enviroment Cx ).


I adoreeeee new games! There is so much to do and I'm playing really really slow. I want to explore everything and train as much Pokemon I can (I have 38 hours of playing and I just entered that cave when you meet Team Flare for the first time). I'm enjoying too much in it. C:

THE POWER OF PERSPECTIVE oh, the perspective on that windmill turned out wonderful, and love the reflective nature on the windmill blades. the  highlights on the fence work well, and like how the bush got shaded. looks like you almost intended to make this a panty shot with how you have the perspective below the skirt, but I know you wouldn't do that and glad you didn't  XD.  think you might have wanted to put the spritzee a bit higher up in the right corner so that corner isn't as empty and the details aren't as cramped together, but just composition nitpick.  love the expressions and how happy the atmosphere is too

Leptocyon In reply to OddPenguin [2013-11-07 17:26:08 +0000 UTC]

hahaha, panty shot idea hasn't even crossed my mind once and now you brought it up and I can't stop laughing. xD But no, I'll spare you trouble and tell you that you shouldn't expect stuff like that from me. 


I definitely see what you mean by lifting Spritzee higher up! Now that you mentioned it, it really stings eye. >u< I'll have to fix ti now.

OddPenguin In reply to Leptocyon [2013-11-07 19:28:53 +0000 UTC]

heh, that's good to hear, and it's just what I thought when I saw the perspective angle, since that's usually what this angle is used for when there's a skirt in the art.


sounds like a plan, and it shouldn't be too hard to move
