People often think the PH sprites are bland. Do they shade? Well, yes they do. You'll be surprised how much care is taken for these sprites.

After each deadline, the topics change and a new deadline is made.
You can do any kind of art, digital, pixel, traditional.
You submit the art before the deadline, and have a chance at winning a prize.

no, obviously not? this is a contest where you draw the topic. the exact topic.
also i dare you to find a better explained contest? hint: open the spoiler under the word 'rules' and you'll be gifted with knowledge

here in the character's information (linked in the topic by the way) you can see other examples of said character
The character is the pikachu itself, the image with the flower was just chosen because it shows the eye color, has minimal shading for easier reference, and is pretty straightforward
Since your suggestion of "blue pikachu" is so far off mark as to be seen as trolling, I'm politely asking you to stop.
You draw the character pictured, not something else. You can pick any of the topics and draw that character, but acting like this, you just look like a troll trying to pick a fight.

Instead of thinking it as a prompt, or idea, the contest quite literally asks you to make a drawing with 1 of those characters as them.
If you were to draw,, say-
Iron-man, would you call it a day after drawing a medieval suit of armour?
Same for this situation, you can draw the character however you want, but it must be that character
Perhaps you can draw the character running, jumping, spinning, but you must use that character. That character isn't a prompt, it is the item you will draw. Using another example, if you wanted to draw an apple, it wouldn't be satisfactory to draw a pear.
I hope I was of some help to end your confusion : )

~ Tsuko is my co-owner. They can enforce these rules, one of the topics will be theirs each week, and they can also answer your questions/accept donations. (topics each week, what do they do?)
~PM Nessy or Tsuko with a reference to your OC if you want to have a topic for the week. Be patient, we will tell you when your topic is up! (wait am I supposed to draw topics for you, or draw drawings from the topic)
~You may enter in more than one topic, but all entries must all be in the same post. (k)
~Pics should be a reasonable size. FYI, sprites probably won't win. (k)
~Read EVERY rule. (I did)
~Do not post after the due-date/time or you will be disqualified. Exceptions are made if you've messaged the topic owner AND Nessy first. (ok, I know this)
~Do not rush the judging, it will happen. (k)
~By doing art for the contest, you give me (or whoever is mentioned in the topic #) permission to use your art (k?)
~Don’t mock the work of others. (I know)
~Don’t insult the work of others. (I know)
~EVERYTHING should be appropriate for the site. (I know)
~You get a ban with your second warning. (k)
~PALPAD or PM me if you want to donate a prize. (donate a prize?)
~The password is pancakes or waffles. (k)
And HAAAAVVEEE FUUUUUNNN!!! (I'll try)
You guys are acting like I'm trying to pick a fight and it's really annoying? How is saying can I draw a blue pikachu trolling? If its a pikachu for the topic. Why can't the drawing be a blue pikachu? There is no reason why you should be giving me attitude, it really just makes you look bad. And thank you Nessy and Teyedy for clearing it up. I was going to draw a pikachu holding a wet dandelion in the rain XD.

-The topics, as in the THREE TOPICS ON THE FIRST POST. Each of them a different character (or prompt, which is generally text based and posted around a holiday)
-That's for people with OCs they want as TOPICS. As in the three topics on the first post. Notice how the ocs belong to different people? Notice how they are OCs and not prompts?
-Donating a prize is irrelevant to you, but sometimes the topic owner wants to donate to the grand prize or random prize as well. Sometimes I just get random donations for prizes, but putting it in the rules makes it easier on everyone so they know to message me if they want.

Okay, but the topic isn't a blue pikachu
It is very clearly marked as Lizz-uwu's oc, I even included a link to the character's information so you can see that it is clearly that character.
An "OC" is an original character, owned by that person. That means they are allowed to use art of that character, even if you don't win, because the character is theirs.
The point of having the topics as various people's ocs is that I run this constantly, and people who don't want to set up their own threads + get them approved (in order to get art of an OC) can come directly to me, have a topic in the art contest, and get art of their character.
So it's not a prompt for a blue pikachu. It's a prompt for the character Akio, owned by Lizzagna
I mean if you wanted you could draw a blue pikachu, but if it's not Akio, you wouldn't have a chance at winning the prize, because the topic is Akio, not "blue pikachu"

At this point, please take your questions to palpad, as you are clogging up my thread
