-'Bout time we got character customization. Yeah, it's going to be sweet. I'm starting to doubt my decision to play as Calem. -Mega garchomp with sand force... Thanks, Game Freak, because if Garchomp had one problem, it was its attack stat. You had to waste so many turns setting up that you barely got a shot in. Giving it an evolution plus an ability to make it hit harder will definitely make it more balanced. I hear you, they screwed up big time. The only good thing about this new monster is that apparently it will be slower than a regular Garchomp. Oh, and there's a new trailer out that has the English names of the new Pokémon: Looks like I was right, Braixen does use that stick as a wand! It's awesome. There's not a chance in hell its final form will be Fire/Fighting now. Bring on the Fire/Psychic witch-fox, bitches! Also, Pyroar has a female form. Yes! We also learned some other new stuff:

My opinions: - Witch-fox ftw! I am definitely starting with Fennekin. Froakie's evo looks also great. Chespin's evo... Not so much. - Mega Garchomp?! Oh good God, what were they thinking? It's also ugly as hell. - Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Mewtwo Y? Wut. Oh well, I'm glad I'm buying Y because I've gotten used to the elegant and feminine MM2Y. MM2X looks awful. - New Pokémon, sweet. Personally I think we've had more than enough cats, but who knows, maybe these new ones will actually be useful in battle. The poodle looks hilarious in a good way and the fossils are awesome and I love their typings. - Everything we knew about the Fairy-type has been confirmed. About time. - Steel is no longer resistant to Dark and Ghost? Well, I suppose that when you gain a new strength, you have to lose a couple of old ones. - Dual-type moves?! Oh please no. That'd make everything way too complicated (not that it isn't already). - Team Flare wants to make money and create a beautiful new world, and most of their high-ranking members are women? Could it be that we'll finally get an evil team with a female boss? It's certainly starting to look that way.

Sweet, a new comic. I'm not sure what Grovyle's staring at but I think it's just something I missed. Now we have a battle against a Ninja Boy to look forward to.

Trippy. I like it. I'm glad you liked the way yours turned out SJ! MegaBlaziken was quite tough, and I still think I messed up in a couple of places, but it worked out, I guess! It certainly did. Also, just so you guys know; I don't really like to post in this thread without having something done. This is mainly to avoid giving whoever is waiting for a request any disappointment. I do, however, still read anything posted, so please don't think I'm being rude by not responding immediately! ´ ▽ ` )ノ I thought this might be the case. It's okay, I'll avoid double posting from now on and wait for you to finish whatever it is you're working on before making new requests.

I'm very happy right now. I managed to find a used Nintendo 3DS from a local GameStop yesterday and today I bought it at the price of 129.90€. It's in pretty good condition and works just fine, so now I'll be able to buy Pokémon Y next month without having to wait at all. Also, I was able to get two shiny event Dialgas for my Black and White 2 from the very same GameStop. I love living in Helsinki.

Okay, I know that you haven't drawn Gooman's request yet, but I just today thought of a new request idea, so I'll make my next request now. I want you to draw a Dunsparce, a Farfetch'd and Lt. Surge's Raichu. You can choose how you want to draw them - it can be a group picture, a comedic situation, a triple battle, three friends hanging out, three mortal enemies fighting to the death etc. Anything goes.

Yay, more starters get Mega Evolutions! Perhaps every single starter will get one in the games, including Swampert. Also, apparently Mega Venusaur's ability is Thick Fat, Mega Charizard's ability is Drought and Mega Blastoise's ability is Mega Launcher which boosts its moves. Now the obvious question is: Do they look cool enough? I think so, but I'm sure that plenty of people wanted a more badass-looking Mega Charizard.

Mother of God... You are brilliant. I love them both. I can see that the bonus picture is just a quick doodle, but it's so funny that I really don't care. Besides, since I only asked for one picture, you completely surprised me and exceeded my expectations by agreeing to draw both options! That is very generous of you and I appreciate it.
The first picture looks exactly how I hoped it would. Flannery looks perfect and I love how excited she is. Her Mega Blaziken also looks exactly how I wanted her to look (yes, it's a girl). Not only that, but you managed to draw Mega Blaziken perfectly. I bet it's one of those Pokémon that looks simple enough but then turns out to be a pain in the butt to draw right. I'm only assuming here, of course.
The bonus picture is just hilarious. Nuff said.
You're doing great, Dotty, keep it up. I'll request something again some day when I have the time and a good picture idea.

Okay then, here's my second request! I want you to draw Flannery fawning over her new super-awesome Mega Blaziken and the Mega Blaziken looking extremely proud and arrogant.
Alternatively, if you don't want to draw humans quite yet, here's a similar request you can do instead: Flannery's Mega Blaziken looking as awesome as possible while Jupiter (Migel's Swampert, of course) sulks in the background because (as far as we know) he didn't get a Mega Evolution in the new Gen.
If you think Mega Blaziken is too difficult to draw or you just don't like these ideas, let me know and I'll request something completely different.

Interesting. I really like how you did Earthquake, it's always been a somewhat difficult move to draw in a picture (at least for me). I also like how a Steel-type like Empoleon is able to jump like that to avoid the attack, but we all know how ridiculously high some Pokémon can jump in the anime, so this is perfectly believable. I think you drew both Pokémon pretty well and the colors are very nice. I have no objections to Swampert losing the battle, since I told you that it was up to you to decide who would be winning, and besides, I like Empoleon nearly as much as I like Swampert. Empoleon is probably my second favorite Water-type starter along with Feraligatr. The background is quite generic but it suits the picture and my backgrounds were usually even more generic and simple. All in all, I'm happy with it. These two requests you've done so far are certainly a good start for this thread. P.S. Are we allowed to make a second request immediately after our previous one if no one else has requested anything during the time you took drawing our first request? Should I wait for you to draw something else before requesting another picture?

It looks amazing. You should've opened your own art thread a long time ago.
I also have a request or two, but I'll start with one: A Swampert battling an Empoleon. Swampert is using Earthquake and Empoleon is using Hydro Pump. I'll leave all the other details to you - who is winning, where the battle is taking place etc.

I agree.
And Dotty, you definitely should open your own art thread. That'd give the Fan Art section at least a little more activity.

Oh yeah, my paternal grandmother passed away last year. She was my favorite grandparent. My great-grandmother also died last year, but we weren't very close and she was over 90 years old anyway, so it wasn't a big shock. I also found out that my sister is gay. I'm fine with that, but I was really worried that my mom wouldn't approve... Luckily, she seems to at least tolerate it.

The last couple of years of my life have been quite uneventful, but right now, I'm writing this from school, so that's something, I guess. I failed to get to university twice, so now I'm studying at a university of applied sciences in Helsinki. I've always wanted to live in Helsinki, and now that dream has finally come true, even if it is living only in a dormitory.
