Description Pokémon Ralts you!

In Pokémon I can never work up the gall to release a Pokémon into the wild. I pity those little pixels!


I drew a Ralts because I've been playing Pokémon Emerald for around 2 weeks and I'm [unsuccessfully] trying to raise my lovelies to a minimum of level 50 for the Pokémon league. I only have Salamence and Blaziken trained so far, but Gardevoir and Sableye are coming along nicely- Lanturn is being a dramaqueen and I'm considering switching to my Manectric or Magnamite for my standard Electric Pokémon. I should probably start raising that Snorunt,too.

Ack!Rambling!

All in all, this is a piece of Poké-propaganda designed to stop evil Trainers from releasing the innocent little...things!

That is all.

Great work and awesome colors, m-mm! He/she looks like a victim of war for some reason.

Personally, I would've gone with a rounder nose myself , although this looks more realistic. <:/

I can see where you're coming from with the rounder nose; it'd of made her look more childlike.

lydario [2007-04-15 00:53:37 +0000 UTC]

im the same... i can never get rid of any of them.. icouldne even destroy cards :0

i think it's because in the new games especially they have so much more personalization than the other ones...

but yea, im very proud of myself... upon beating the elite four in emerald, not ONE of my pokemon were above level 50, and the first one reached it by the end of it :]

that way i could take on the battle fronteer right after :]

and i'd keep lanturn... with it's water AND electric, its invaluable and eccential for its combined types.... it makes it strong against types its normaly not good against :]

Looks like you did very well- my Pokémon are essentially crap, even though I feel very attached to them. I haven't played that game in a while, actually.

Yeah, Lanturns are handy for their type advantages- specifically for their ability to boltbeam, but doing all that IV training crap is a pain in the face.

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-15 02:29:08 +0000 UTC]

yea, but really... it wasnt that impressive a team... aggron, sceptile, altaria, absol, ampharos, and octillery...

though sceptile, not to toot my own horn, is awsome

it knows earthquake, dragonclas, leaf blade, and rock tomb... it covers all its weaknesses

but tis all about pokemon you like... it just helps when you can make them strong :]

but about the pic... ralts actually looks happy to me... or mischievuos...

scales In reply to lydario [2007-04-15 11:27:14 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, man- I know. I've been playing Pokémon for a long time so I know all about type advantages, the rules of movesets and all that. Plus all my Pokémon are well over level 60 by now, but still- thanks for trying to help.

I remember when I had a Sceptile- it had a very similar moveset to yours, only instead of Rocktomb I gave it Aerial Ace for when I wanted a sure-thing first hit. It's the basic Sceptile sweeping moveset, really. Pretty much everyone who's not a 'professional' uses it!

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-15 15:52:11 +0000 UTC]

... seriously? i though i was creative with that :/

but really, somehting people often take for granted is awsome advantage rock type attacks have over others... strong against fire, ice, flying, bug, and a whole bunch of other types that... and the best part is, most pokemon can learn at least one rock move, to defend their weaknesses

(not teaching... sharing knowledge)

but anyway, ive been keeping them at level 50, basically to try and beat the battle frontier with them there, then again at 100

but its not turnign out so hot yet... battle points are hard to get, andim still waiting on move tutor moves to get them through D:

its a never ending cycle of interest... pekemon games are really good for making people think

unless they have a stupid party loaded with legendaries, that all know hyperbeam...

scales In reply to lydario [2007-04-15 20:13:48 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, rock type attacks are useful to have; it's a shame it's a rather weak type, though.

I've got a little team set up specifically for the Battle Frontier now. I pick three at a time from a mixed bag of Exeggutor, Charizard, Miltank, Clefairy and a whole load of other lameos. They're proving themselves well in the matches!

Hyperbeam is a crap attack, anyway; the power from it is just overkill and it delays the next attack of your 'mon. Pretty useless.

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-16 00:47:08 +0000 UTC]

yea really... and i hate how on the show, every while pokemon knows it... when only like three actually learn it naturally :/

but yea, im thinking of a team now, but i have an even more broad team in plans... breloom, starmie, and houndoom... they have fire grass and water, then psychic fighting and dark... most useful indeed... i hope :/

so far ive beaten the battle pike... ... ... and i think thats it... i made it to nolan, but he beat me on ONE hit... if my attacks worked right, i woulda won :/

scales In reply to lydario [2007-04-16 19:23:57 +0000 UTC]

In the show, every Pokémon seems to know tackle.

I have a Breloom myself. A useful type combination at times, but flying moves are devastating to it. Poor lil' thing.

The only Brain I've gotten to is that Seviper girl, twice; I almost beat her, too.

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-16 19:42:16 +0000 UTC]

lemme guess... her shuckle killed you... right?

ive devised the perfect plan to beat her chuckle... if you want to hear of course ;}

but yea... the shows are terrible in that respect, along with many other ways... but the action has gotten a bit better

and what they do with focus punch is a crime >:[

scales In reply to lydario [2007-04-16 19:58:49 +0000 UTC]

I can't remember if it was the Shuckle, but I remember being poisoned or something. I'd imagine it really was that damn Shuckle. Stupid playdoh turtle!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-16 20:21:19 +0000 UTC]

haha playdoh XD

but after losing a few times, i came to realize if you get an aggron in there... you cant lose... once you get rid of her other pokemon, get the aggron out

it's tock type prevents sandstorm from doing anything, and steel cancels out poison attacks (no toxic) and then steal is also powerful against rock, so jsut endure its sleeping, stay strong and you have nothin to worry about

i think it might have one attack, but with aggron's defense its nothing to worry about :]

scales In reply to lydario [2007-04-16 20:35:36 +0000 UTC]

Ahh, good idea. I might try it with a Skarmory or some other steel type. Thanks for the tips!

Pfft, with Shuckle's attack power I don't think it's a physical threat at all, really!

lydario In reply to scales [2007-04-22 20:53:42 +0000 UTC]

yea, thats what i thought... its not hisphysical attacks that are bad... its toxic... all her pokemon know IT or some other form of status killer... and not having items makes choice important... even shuckle can be a hazard since he uses a lot of "end of the turn" strikes

I'm such a lameo- I insist on having a Ralts in my Ruby/Saphire/Emerald party.

I lost my copy of Pokémon Ruby. I think my Mam threw it out by accident. I had all the Regis, a Milotic, a Jirachi and a Groudon in that damn game!

This is so interesting in coloring style. I'm always impressed when that variety of colors can still imply a sense of solidity and light. <3 Rar. I like the big nose, too.

ah, i haven't played pokemon for so long now, for two reasons...first, after 250 pokemon, it was too much for my wittle bwain to cope with. second, i had a level 90 charizard. and then i was an idiot and accidentally erased the game *cough* anyway....yes....your shading always amazes me and you always manage to add little hints of other colours in there too that just adds so much to it.
