Equus; Revised Moveset

The move Rain Dance was left in the move pool as a courtesy I felt the Pokemon deserved. It seemed appropriate that a grass Pokemon should be able to summon rain when necessary to replenish itself and others of its' herd. It made sense to my mind. That's all, really.

My only main input will be with the sprites; nice as your drawings are, I hope you do not intend to submit their smaller versions as sprites? It needs to be pixel art, I'm afraid, and resizing a drawing like that will never produce the right effect without significant editing... it would be easier to just use it as a template and sprite it anew. It also might be a thought to give them both slightly different poses, to make them different from one another and interesting to look at.

Oops, I lied - I'm also iffy about the Ability. Whilst it's cute in a roleplay sense... not a lot of people would care that much, and something like trainer-pokémon relations isn't very highly moderated. Players tend to roleplay pokémon bonding as fairly fast no matter the manner in which they were obtained, so that element to the ability isn't really necessary? The only way in which this really works is the breeding and trading aspects, both of which may serve to make this slightly less desirable: if I can't catch one, for whatever reason, and I also am not allowed to trade for one (or breed it, depending on whether the newborn/egg is allowed to be traded - and that's assuming the Equus has its mate) then I may just not bother trying to catch one. Plus, though we have a chronic case of abilities-being-ignored here, having a beneficial one or two for battles is always cool. There'd be nothing stopping you from adding a second more established ability, to make it a little more useful in - or out - of battles.

Well, it was something I wanted to put on the pokemon because I liked the idea. Given that it's basically a cosmetic ability, it would be the choice of the players whether to use it, really. If I thought it would be allowed, I might add a battle-helpful ability, but I wouldn't know what to put on it. I can't get Serebii to load. Blind Bond was something I intended to follow through with, because it sounded neat; I'm very much fact-driven when I roleplay, so it was a fun aspect for me to think about. I'm not worried about if it's maintained by other RPers. ^-^

EDIT: And as far as the sprite... I'm no good at pixel spriting, so I was going to leave that up to someone else, if they felt like respriting it. When I've got my computer running again, I'll consider drawing up another image for the stallion, but as it is, I don't have any place to plug my computer in, much less any way to use my digiboard. I'm on a laptop right now, and it was late when I got around to doing the stallion's image.

I understand your motivations, but if this is accepted I feel it should also appeal to several members, and whilst I suppose ability isn't as important as a solid moveset, a more usual second ability might help out. It's not essential, especially if nobody else feels the same, but it'd just be a concern of mine ^^ As for the sprites, it's no problem, I was just making sure you were aware these'd need to be re-done somewhat. Don't worry too much about drawing the stallion again - whoever sprites them could take the liberty of making the two differently posed.

Can't say I like the abilities. Second one has actually no real purpose. Even if you say its cosmetic for IC use, thats more a personality trait than a Battle ability. The other Tunnel Vision. What does it do?

I appreciate your input. I'll be creating a second image for the male, anyways, once I get my computer going. It plays into he surprise I had planned well enough.Tunnel Vision was one I saw in the Alterniadex, and it seemed appropriate. I'm looking it up again. If anyone can suggest more appropriate abilities, I would appreciate it.

Definition: Tunnel Vision -- When this pokemon comes into battle, it will distort space, causing all battling's vision to narrow. Accuracy of all pokemon except it are cut by 2.

tunnel vision sounds dirty, as in something good that you created that i would never want to go up against. does it apply to ally pokemon as well?

the only thing i'd think of changing would be putting tail whip at level 5 and vine whip at level 9, but that's a purely cosmetic decision. regardless of whether you want to change that or not, i offer a non-umod + approval

It effects everyone other than the ability holder. Or if they have an ability that prevents Accuracy Drop.

Actually, as I've already said, Tunnel Vision isn't something I created, it was in the Alternia Dex. Anyways, I took out that ability and revised the moveset. It seems to be better, now, so I hope it looks more appropriate, better formed... Whatever the phrase is. ^-^

Hi again all. Was hoping there'd've been a response by now, but... /sigh

Anywho, I'm about to try and see if I can get my digiboard working on my uncle's computer to remodel the appearance of the Stallion. Might think about redoing the Mare, but i really like the way she was done.

As I said, I reworked the moveset and fixed the abilities. Anyone see any other problems I need to fix?

Got a bit bored, thought I'd do a sprite of the male Equus. -shrug- Personally, I prefer the white one most of all.

OMG *snuggles*

You're right, the contrast on the first one captures the essence of the stallion. The only thing that's off is that the base coat's supposed to be a bit darker than that. I don't mind, I think they're beautiful. *snuggles*

Done with the mare... I think it looks a ton better than the male, but that's mostly because it's more realistic colored than the green stallion. XD Also, the female looks to be a bit larger, but it still works I think.

Dey is most bootifulz. *snuggle*

The mares are supposed to. For the longest time they were thought to be no more than horses with eyesight problems, 'till someone figured out they had abilities with telepathy and powers of grass.
