Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
ohoho, it IS my lucky day! I'm gonna have fun with this on my break tonight :P
Thanks so much for your work!
You're in luck, because I just did exactly that (funnily enough, having not yet seen your comment). Enjoy.
I still think that using menu sprites would be a good idea, even though they're small. They don't cover shinies, or the more minor colour and gender variations, but they do cover different forms!
Most people doing the picker probably at least have an idea of what the full Pokemon looks like already.
You could also keep the current version of the picker as a separate version, and create a new page for the Galar picker using menu sprites, perhaps? That's one way to compromise.
Does anyone want to join my friend Greninlucarizardlup's forum? Its a pokemon forum and it has really nice and fun members on it :) Me and my friend Greninlucarizardlup felt like people on this site would be interested in joining it! Its a really fun forum^^
Commenting on the galar pokemon related post (also hi DP fan :P).
I find it interesting how the newer Pokemon games put more and more importance on battling to become friends with Pokemon. The battles definetly have a meaning to the creators, and like articles on this site of said, they're probably more good than they are bad or the what not. The new friendship system sounds challenging, it kind of scares me a bit xD Pokemon losing trust if they're in the pc too long o.O; but JUST battling (not just 'leveling up'. really any battle) and also the camp in general may make regaining trust go a bit faster. The new games are one of a kind. I wonder if i'll enjoy playing them :) i'm sure it'll be hard to go back to older ones a little if i feel i need to keep proving myself to my pokemon xDDD haha….how are you taking the frienship system, butterfee? I ask others this as well. Maybe some fans don't care as much as me (i won't judge them for it. its still a game and i know that).
Galar pokemon for the picker will be awesome :3 One of my overall favs is alcremie, its so adorable^^
Sure! But I'd like some more precise numbers if possible, and confirmation that what's listed there is actually true and/or there isn't anything else going on. Serebii is not… great… about accuracy.
@Negrek: According to Serebii, it depends on the type of raid battle (ordinary Pokemon or Gigantamax), whether or not the encounter rate was boosted by an ongoing event, and whether it's solo or multiplayer. Solo, non-event encounters are supposedly a guaranteed catch. Assuming this is all true, Butterfree's observations about the capture algorithm seem to apply here as well; a G-max Centiskorch I fought solo last night broke free, and considering the difficulty rating it was almost certainly a higher level than my Pokemon.
I'm talking about creating new renders of all of them, not just the Sw/Sh ones, in a single consistent style. (Although the Sw/Sh models absolutely are rendered with outlines in the games; they're just comparatively way thinner outlines, because they're HD games.)
even if someone does make renders of the models they won't be consistent with the other pokémon. they removed the outline effect that previous generations had; it's not a huge thing but if you see swsh models next to older models you can definitely see the difference.
Ah, but how does capturing work for max raid battles?
When is Favorite Pokemon picker getting gen8?
Josh: Yeah, there's an issue with recent Chrome on Android for some reason. I'm working on figuring out what's wrong there and how to fix it.
Heracross: Those artworks for the Galar Pokémon aren't out either! Bulbagarden Archives has some of the pre-release artwork published on the official site, but for all the other Pokémon that didn't get revealed pre-release, we don't yet have any official artwork.
What about instead use sprites (since gen8 dont have all of them and would be weird this mix of gen7 and 8) you could try use artworks from guidebooks, like check Bulbapedia Galar Mons Page… 2D for me was always better tbh
Trying to use the picker on mobile (Huawei p20) and I don't see any images for any Pokémon. Once a favourite has been picked I can see the image if I press and hold the icon but that's not so useful when I don't know what I'm picking 😅
Well, 1) that'd be stealing Serebii's pictures that he manually compiled from his game, and 2) the Favorite Pokémon Picker includes all Pokémon, not just the ones in the Galar Pokédex, and therefore I need not just images of the Galar Pokémon, but reasonably consistent-looking images of all the Pokémon. (If the Galar Pokémon look different from all the other Pokémon in the picker, it's going to look weird.)
You can find good pictures of all pokemon in Galar in Serebii.net.
(I don't work for Serebii, but it is a great website!)
Jirachu; Are you talking about J-ster? I'm friends with that guy. He's a cool guy.
Also, how've thins been with you?
Hi Butterfree :( My friend is worried i made him not sound very nice in my last post. I never meant to make him sound bad. Can you delete the other comment? I guess i was worried it would be deleted before he could see it in general, so i felt stressed. He is a very kind person though :) He got me my favorite x and y manga. I'm okay with sword and shield spoilers since i like playing showdown a lot but i look forward to buying the new games one day too^^ i love keeping up with new stuff and building teams with pokemon i find.
Yes, but not quite yet. I'm playing the game mostly blind and I'm not going to look up any information about the Pokémon in it until I've beaten it.
I'm enjoying Sword a lot! It's some of the most fun I've had with a Pokémon game, largely because I haven't been following leaks and spoilers so I haven't seen most of the Pokémon, and there are a lot of cool quality of life improvements and stuff to do. Doing some catch mechanics research right now.
