Legendary Spriting Contest

Important news, everyone!

We have discovered a lot of new Pokémon throughout the years, but it seems like the new Pokémon lurking around is from a completely different league. There don't seem to be that many of them and they all seem to have a presence to them, demanding our attention.

If you're lucky, you might've caught a glimpse of it, but no one seems to have a complete picture of it.

Maybe you guys have? If you have, please tell us everything you know! What legendary Pokémon came to Emera Town?

So. . . what exactly do you need to do? I pretend to hear you thinking
Create your own Legendary Event sprite!

Reward Time
As with all contests, there's something in it for everyone who joins. If you're the winner, not only is your event legendary going to be part of a site-wide event distribution, you'll also get a shiny of that event legendary as a prize!

There will only be 1 winning entry.

If you join, but don't win, as always there'll be a consolation prize as a thank you for joining (:

Sprite Requirements
!! Your sprite must NOT have been published elsewhere, anywhere. Only new and original sprites are allowed !!

Sprite Size: The size of the canvas you use should be 96 x 96 px . The sprite itself doesn't need to be that size, but please fill in the needed space with transparent pixels.

Sprite design: You are free to choose any legendary Pokémon as a base for your sprite. Whether you include an event for existing evolutions, is up to you.

Do not include new evolutions.
Do not include events for others in a duo/trio (if you pick one of those).
If you do, you entry will be disqualified.

Also keep in mind we're looking for a new legendary event, so using a legendary that already has an event equivalent will lower your chances at winning.

Legendaries that already have an event


Legendaries that don't have an event yet


But, most importantly, have fun!

Obtaining: You are allowed to suggest a way to obtain* your event-pokémon. This is decided upon separately and will not affect your event-submission. It's possible for your event to win, but still be obtained differently.

Copyright: The sprite has to be done completely by you. You are not allowed to include (parts of) sprites from other artists, excluding official sprites, which can be used as a base. Previous sprites can also not be submitted. You are NOT allowed to publish your sprite anywhere during the contest and event time.

* example: "Collect 10 Ice Cream Cornets on Rumble Missions"

How to enter
Please use the following form and send it through PM to CatLady. If you post your event in this thread, it will be disqualified.



Your entry should look something like this [with your own sprites]

Quote

Event name: Seatran
(Optional) Event description: "Dive into the ocean and search for the legendary pokémon, Seatran."
PokéDex Entries: Seatran: Its body is made of rugged steel. It lives deep down in the ocean.
Event sprites:
-Egg sprite

-Normal line

-Shiny line

(Optional) Evolution method: Seatran doesn't evolve
(Optional) How to obtain this Event: Win 500 Hangman

Due to this being a Spriting Contest for a legendary event, only 1 event legendary submission will win.

Please submit your finished sprite(s) through PM only

Deadline
The deadline is April 4th, 23:59
The winner will be chosen by us, the staff, based on quality.

Please keep SPAM posts out of this thread (:

Most important of all, though, I hope you all HAVE FUN~

Are we only allowed to have one entry?

Do not include events for others in a duo/trio (if you pick one of those).

Does this mean pokemon like Zekrom/Reshiram won't be eligible then? Or is it possible to enter a design for only one of them?

What about legendaries with multiple forms? (interchangeable or otherwise)? Are you allowed to submit multiple forms for said legendary event?

for pokemon like the cosmog line, if i picked solgeo, do i include cosmog and cosmeom or am i not supposed to?

Are Mythical Pokemon considered Legendary, or do we need to pick strictly from the current list of Legendaries?

EDIT: read the list of Legendaries that don't have events yet, disregard my question

No one will make me change my opinion, mythicals are legendaries I'll supose they count for the contest, ultrabeasts are considered legendaries even tough they are not, also mew is on the list of legendaries with event

---

@truCrystalBorf I would assume since they are on the list they are allowed

---

@Ai-Hoshino - You can send in several entries, but only 1 will win.

@Politoed - No, that means that if you pick Zekrom, you're not allowed to include an event for Reshiram as well. It's Zekrom or Reshiram.

@MeepTheMareep02 - As long as it's not a new form, you can submit an event for every (existing) form.

@spiritwolfy13 - As long as it's not a new (pre)evolution, whether or not you include others from the same line, is up to you.

---

Pecharunt: you obtain it by getting that thing in the game (you know the one I forgot the name) but you obtain that by gifting 100 mystery boxes to people (you cant send 1 person 100 you have to spread them out)

1. We are looking for event legendaries.

'Do not include events for others in a duo/trio'


Are we allowed to submit them separately?
(as in, into 3 or 2 separate forms not all 3 or 2 in one form)

Like they won't be released together but out of those 3 or 2 only one will get picked.

Will it still be disqualified?



And does galarian form count to put together?
Example: Galarian zapdos with zapdos on the same form.

You can submit as many entries as you like. There is not restrictions on which you can('t) make a new entry for.

If they have a separate entry in the Pokédex, they count as a different legendary and cannot be submitted in the same entry.

---

okay thank you :)

for a pokemon like shaymin, how would it work? would you just pick one of the forms, both the forms, or just the basic one?

That choice is yours to make.
