Like Teams Rocket, Aqua, Magma and Galaxy do?

Never thought about it. Hmm... we should make one.

Probably just some sort of O with a cool design then.

Maybe and O with a sword going through diagonally, to show their "0" dependence on Pokemon aim?

I'll try to illustrate this after I'm done with that Jirachi (which has basic colours and lineart but no shading yet)

Best I could do, maybe add a tail to the star? (don't currently know how, but I could try)

Or I could turn the star into the pommelstone area of a diagonal sword.

I think either it should be 3 stars (for Orion's Belt) or just a diagonal sword. In sprites it'd be really hard to depict stars though.

Best I could do again. Also tried to make a smaller version. Once I learn how to make a sword in inkscape, I'll try that too.
I was thinking a "O" that is compressed horizontally (like the "G" in team Galactic) with a sword weaved in it. Pommel and base of sword go over, mid goes under, and tip extends out. pommel @ top right, tip @ bottom left.

Yeah, try that.

I was thinking that it could be O for Orion Defenders and then inside the general layout for the constellation of Orion...
but these look pretty good and from the sound of the last one that may be cooler than what I was thinking of...

I actually think it should be a very simplistic logo. Note how they are rivals of Team Rocket, who have a very simplistic logo, simply a red "R". Orion Defender's logo should be an italicized, shiny, golden "O".

This was OddCrow's idea:
I was thinking a "O" that is compressed horizontally (like the "G" in team Galactic) with a sword weaved in it. Pommel and base of sword go over, mid goes under, and tip extends out. pommel @ top right, tip @ bottom left
Which I actually think is a good idea, but if we do this, than the Rocket logo should be changed, probably to something with some kind of Team Rocket equivalent of the sword in the Orion Defender's "O", and possibly a colour change (I suggest Gengar's shade of purple, if any colour change at all).

Just suggestions, but I'd be happy to make them. I can't think of anything for a Rocket equivalent of the sword, so if anyone can suggest something, I'll make the Rocket "R". I'm not saying I expect these changes to be in the game, but I'm bored, so I'll go ahead and make both Orion "O"s right now. It might be a waste of time, but again, I'm bored.

Actually, I think the sword would work better if it goes the other way, pommel and base at bottom left, and tip at the top right.

I like the Rocket R already. It's resonant, simple, easy enough to sprite and recognizable.

I don't think anyone's really suggesting anything too complex for Orion. A constellation figure is just three stars, like Orion's Belt. A sword can be simple enough since the only ornate swords are the useless ones anyway.

God save you all from this...
wait for it...
THERE!!! http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd123/quintinbruderer/Topaz/OrionLogo.png
I'm not too pleased at it though, totally serious. I still have the PSD for use...but yeah.

Hi people. This vacation gave me some time. Peaking around, I might have a go at a nice load of stuff during my stay again.

remember though it wouldn't really have a background, and when sprited, the white would be just dots if not even there or 1 dot even. Though you see the Big Rocket R many times on other stuff than sprites too. Its just some eye candy.

I really think that the Orion logo should look similar to the Rocket logo. I imagine Orion and Rocket to be equal, therefore shouldn't have logos that are too different. I strongly think there shouldn't be stars or a sword or anything in the Orion logo if there's no opposite of the sword or stars in the Rocket logo. Just my thoughts.

Uh no. They are opposite so it would make sense for one to be complex and fanciful and the other plain and simple, it's called contrast. Although I wouldn't mind just a simple golden O.

This. It isn't like the logo is going to be showing up all that much anyway, so as long as it's recognizable in context, it dosen't really matter how complex it is.

Yes.

Also, I had a great view of Orion on my drive home last night. I wish we could encorporate that, but it wouldn't really show up on sprites.
