I'm glad you liked it xD It was a helluva lot of work to make, but a lot of fun, too ^_^ I kinda wish I had flash, though. I hear tweening makes animations a lot easier than fbf (each frame was.. like... 40-something layers btw lol)

i never understood how just a rock will hurt them when they can survive moves llike:

Hypr beam

iron tail

thunderbolt(which is literally 10,000 volts as it says in japanese

and even Roar of Time ( Seriously If you fight time you will lose)

The rock doesn't hurt them. It just pisses them off and makes them more likely to go away.

CHANSEY APEARED. CATCH IT WITH A BALL THATS COMPLETELY INFERIOR TO EVERY OTHER BALL.

sad thing is, i spent like 10000 bucks in pokemon money trying to catch a chansey, i buy pearl version, and its in a damn grass patch

but yeah i tottally did the same thing my first time in the safari zone.

Throwing rocks makes the pokemon more willing to run away but they're easier to catch.
Bait makes them stay but harder to catch.

JWiesner [2010-11-04 09:16:44 +0000 UTC]

That last panel really does it. xD The more I look at it, the funnier it gets. Especially because the Tauros is just standing there with that facial expression, only moving his pupils to the right and left like wtf. I also couldn't shake off the thought he's gonna attack you any time soon. xD

Lol. I always skipped the bait and went straight to the rocks. Then again, it always took me a while to get tauros. >.>

LOL

Bait makes the Pokemon less likely to run away, but makes them harder to catch.

Rocks make the Pokemon easier to catch, but makes them more likely to run away.

Safari balls have the worst catch rate ever. They need to make Safari balls with better catch rates.

DawnAllies [2010-11-03 07:24:07 +0000 UTC]

Poor Tauros.. hehe. Still, this is quite adorably cute. I'd say having the Tauros' cheeks grow and shrink as if it were eating the bait would add to the panel, especially as the top half of the image has no movement but the lower does.

Still, very well done! It is very cute.

Nate516 In reply to DawnAllies [2010-11-03 12:37:31 +0000 UTC]

I knew I should've done somethin' with that, but it was already about a hundred layers in the source of the frames, and I was getting tired and lazy xD I'm glad you liked it, though

Hey, it's really cool and considering it's a .gif and not a .fla file I know how much work into that, haha.
Well done ^^

Thanks It actually was easier than I expected it to be, but then again, I thought it was gonna be REALLLLLY difficult to pull off motion blurs xD
