Puzzle Drawing Contest

(Because who doesn't like a good puzzle!)
Everybody, put down your hand, it's a rhetorical question.

Hello everybody!
Whether you like puzzles or not, PokéHeroes puzzles have a way of putting themselves together, you just gotta find the pieces. That means that you can find pieces doing things you do enjoy. That's a whole lot more interesting, right?

However, we recently got a notice from our Puzzle-providers that they're gonna stop making puzzles for us, which came as a huge shock! They hadn't contacted us for a while, but we had no idea they were cancelling the service.

Which leaves us in quite the pickle. We had hoped on the next batch in the foreseeable future, because it's been the same puzzles for quite some time, and some users have already completed all of them. What to do?

Oh, I know. This is where you guys come in :3 I'll give you all the necessary information and then you guys can design the puzzle. Imagine, thousands of users on PokéHeroes, working to complete a puzzle you designed. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? So don't hesitate and take out those drawing tablets and drawing pencils! I can't wait to see what you all can come up with :3

Reward time
Now, as this is a contest, there should be a prize, even if art can be a fun and frustrating activity all on its own. Aside from the feeling of winning, the top 5 puzzles will also be immortalized on the puzzle-page.
That's not all! The artists of those puzzles will also receive a 1-month premium!

Even if you enter and qualify, but don't win, you'll still get a consolation/participation prize for the effort you put into your art.

Artwork Requirements
Accepted File Types: .PNG .JPEG .JPG
Image Size: 600 x 400 px (width x height)
Artwork Type: Digital, no transparency [final product]
Artwork Design: Enjoy what you're making! The most important thing is that your puzzle is Pokémon or PokéHeroes-related. As long as this requirement is met, all art is welcome. (Maybe you want to draw some lore? What's your favourite pokémon's favourite activity? How do certain locations in Emera Town look? So many questions, so little answers!) Just make sure there's at least one pokémon in it.
Additionally, there's no specific theme, so let your mind be free!
[As opposed to the Advent Calendar, please don't include your PokéSona or OCs. Emera-exclusives are fine to be included, though.]
File Upload: Please upload it to a website which doesn't delete it within the next 30 days and allows third-party viewing. (Recommended: sta.sh, tinypic.com, imgur.com)
Copyright: The artwork has to be drawn completely by you. You are not allowed to include images from other artists, including official art. Entries from previous years also can't be (re)submitted, even if it would still fit the theme somehow.

Please post your finished artwork in this thread!

Deadline
The deadline is August 16th, 23:59.
The winners will be chosen by us, the staff, based on quality.
The results should be revealed on the 23th of August.

I want to join! Are you able to send the piece to me on DeviantArt? PH is blocked on my Chromebook.

---

So if I understood it correctly, we just draw a 600x400 image of anything PH related/themed we feel like and post the link here? And then whichever picture you guys vote on will become puzzles, yeh?
