Item Sprites

**ImmunityBow** · 02-22-11 03:35 AM

Hmm..

If you're looking for what each of them is, it's in the URL.

**zeroality** · 02-22-11 04:54 AM

Man those are great. We only have one Pokeball approved though?

I'm not sure which Dune Ball you said was officialized; I saved 3 different ones I think. I seem to recall us having several balls, and I seem to be remembering a few other items too? Or is that just my imagination?

**ImmunityBow** · 02-22-11 05:43 AM

There was a Solar Ball sprite, but I really like betatmw's version so I wanted to first find out if people agree with that being the best possible option.

As for the Dune Ball, all the options seem good to me... I'm actually having a little trouble deciding.

There are a few that still need work though they appear earlier in the topic: Twilight Crest, Rivalry Orb, Thorn Plant, etc. Jagged Herb seems like it could be official too, I don't really see any way to improve it. Also I always seem to lose the X Special Defense sprite.

**zeroality** · 02-22-11 07:25 AM

Alright, I grabbed the Jagged Herb.

I'd appreciate anything else you can give me to put on the site IB. We need everything in one place.

**ImmunityBow** · 02-23-11 01:41 AM

I can try reediting the Twilight Crest sometime. If everyone's problem (besides neon) was just the chain, it's simple enough to remove most of the black outline.

**zeroality** · 02-24-11 08:49 AM

There is no try. There is only do.

That thing was awesome, I'd love to see an updated version. And X Sp Def for my?

Also Quinn sent me some item sprites in the 130mb worth of stuff he sent.

Magic Herb

- uh, is that a face in there?

Can I grab the Rivalry Orb (which version?) and Thorn Plant

as placeholders for now?

Laser Lens looks pretty bad but Diamond Dust

is decent.

He also sent me some Pokeballs but not sure which are official Nintendo ones or which are Topaz-made. It's a clusterfrack of files here.

**ImmunityBow** · 02-24-11 12:55 PM

I like the Thorn Plant but there's a definite no on the Diamond Dust since that's a recolour of an official sprite. Magic Herb seems a little too anemic.

I actually have no idea where X Sp Def is. It was a teal recolour of the "X Stat" item sprite.

**Black Temple Gaurdian** · 02-24-11 08:14 PM

All the powder's are recolours of each other

**ImmunityBow** · 02-25-11 12:12 AM

The outline still seems off, and I'm sure we can do a little better than Gamefreak at least in this area >_>

**Tyrannigon64** · 02-25-11 12:30 AM

How do you expect Diamond Dust to look?

**ImmunityBow** · 02-25-11 03:38 AM

There are plenty of ways to have dust without it being simply piled on top of fabric. You can have it spilling out of a vial, you can have it just in a pile by itself (like Star Dust), or even just a neatly tied little pouch, closed or opened, both can work.

Honestly, I don't know. My initial version didn't seem to be too popular and to be honest I'm not a fan of any of the edits, since they either didn't actually improve the shading any, seemed too flat, or just didn't actually evoke Rivalry (like Quinn's sprite, which was nice but didn't seem to represent anything)

**ImmunityBow** · 02-27-11 08:16 PM

Hows this for Twilight Crest?

**Tyrannigon64** · 02-27-11 09:27 PM

I personally would prefer a black and white recolour, but I'll see if anyone agrees with me before recolouring it.

**Sev** · 02-27-11 09:36 PM

i agree with tyrannigon =)

**Cyndadile** · 02-27-11 10:34 PM

Rivalry Orb? A bit generic, but if we wanted to use it with Kuranpu...

I'm not sure which of the top two are better.
Also, weren't we going to have two halves? That's what the bottom is.

**ImmunityBow** · 02-27-11 11:19 PM

Sorry, in case it wasn't clear, the last sprite I posted was for Twilight Crest.

Kuranpu represent harmony, not rivalry. I think this is the wrong direction to take it.

**Cyndadile** · 02-28-11 01:02 AM

I know, I saw it earlier in the thread.

Also, I was just throwing an idea out there for the orb. As for the Kuranpu tie-in, I was thinking that it was angered by you using it or something.

And 3 more similar ideas:

**zeroality** · 02-28-11 02:52 AM

I'm sorry but those look flat and incredibly generic compared to the Rivalry Orb I saw posted a while ago.

As for the Twilight Crest, it's an improvement. I don't know why you two want a black/white recolor... I don't think that would work.

**zeroality** · 03-01-11 11:39 AM

spungy herb

flare incense

rivalry orb

dune ball (WHICH ONE IS OFFICIAL?)

topaz bike

vital herb

vine ball

IMO, the second spungy herb, flare incense, topaz bike, first vine ball, and vital herb are good enough to go on the site as placeholders at least. I'm gonna go ahead and do that for now, and I can take them down later if it's a big disagreement. At least if people dislike what is on the site, it will give them motivation to work to change/improve it!

Need to know which Dune Ball to use. 1 and 3 are similar and two is nice. So how about this, we pick either 1/3 or 2 to use then we reuse the design of the other one on another Pokeball? It'd just take some recoloring/shading to make it into a different ball.

**Black Temple Gaurdian** · 03-01-11 07:14 PM

I vote for dune ball 3, adn the second rivalry orb.

**NyteFyre** · 03-01-11 07:52 PM

What BTG said.

**MeekRhino** · 03-01-11 09:05 PM

Agreed

**Cyndadile** · 03-01-11 11:26 PM

...I kind of like rivalry orb 1.

**ImmunityBow** · 03-02-11 06:33 AM

Can someone try defending the second rivalry orb with an argument? The way I see it, it's simpler without any of the benefits that come with being simpler. The solid red and fuchsia clash strongly with the rest of the design, and the swirly patterns look feeble. The shading isn't any better either, somehow it looks even more flat than the original.

I do like third Dune Ball best.

**Black Temple Gaurdian** · 03-02-11 07:45 AM

It's clearer and neater than the first one? (rivarly orbs here)

**MeekRhino** · 03-02-11 11:54 AM

I think you are right, IB. I changed my mind, I like rivalry orb 1 better.

**zeroality** · 03-03-11 12:52 AM

4-2 in favor of first Rivalry Orb (ib, me, cyndadile, meek / btg, nytefyre).

Dune Ball is up (and all the items I mentioned), and Rivalry Orb is going up soon. Working on adding all item sprites with placeholders (including "no sprite" holders).

**Sev** · 03-05-11 03:16 AM

before that i made this and i like it better imo

**ImmunityBow** · 03-05-11 03:46 AM

All you did was recolour the Seviper? If I remember correctly I used the colours off of the official sprites for Seviper and Zangoose.

**Sev** · 03-05-11 09:54 PM

oh i just thought the fact that red on both sides was not that good of an idea

**Ryoka** · 03-13-11 04:45 PM

Heres a rainbow ball (1x catch rate, 3x in sunny weather?)

**Tyrannigon64** · 03-13-11 04:58 PM

We aren't accepting new ideas for items. Sorry!

**Sev** · 03-13-11 06:06 PM

It's great but we aren't accepting new sprite ideas. Right now we are finishing the last few sprites left.
Edit: Just asking, but who's vine/moss ball aqre we using

**Black Temple Gaurdian** · 03-13-11 06:31 PM

Guys, we have one of those without a sprite right? Names can be changed and it's better than nothing.

**Tyrannigon64** · 03-13-11 06:35 PM

Oh yeah... Forgot about that!

**Sev** · 03-13-11 06:40 PM

Although if we change one to a rainbow ball it should have a better name like prisim ball.

**Noog** · 07-03-11 07:32 AM

I made a Laser Lens icon. It's basically a recolor of the Zoom Lens with an added laser beam thing.

(Larger version, at 24px/24px)

(A bit off topic, but I think it's "Spongy Herb", as I don't think "spungy" is a word.)

**ImmunityBow** · 07-03-11 04:28 PM

I always assumed that whoever made the Spungy Herb misspelled it intentionally. But now that I think about it, herbs do tend to have boring names anyway, so I guess I'll change it.

As for the Laser Lens, the colours seem to clash a bit, which considering that it's a recolour is a bit of a problem.
