Red Sword; Steelix Feathers

Basic Information:

Name: Red Sword
Item Sprite: Posted Image
Optional Image: It's a sharpened Steelix Skarmory feather. "The feathers that it sheds are very sharp. It is said that people once used the feathers as swords." Crystal pokedex entry; where I got the idea from. Sprite is a feather removed from Skarmory's sprite with a little cleanup and reshading applied. Needs transparency.

It's supposed to look like this kind of:
Spoiler: click to toggle


Item Information:

Weight: 0.45 pounds.
Height: 2' 3.5"
Effects: [Held Item] Increases the Crit. Ratio of steel moves. Only works with Pawniard, Bisharp, Speclaw and Fantamdura.

:bisharp :speclaw :fantamdura

Production Notes: Skarmory feathers cannot be pulled directly as it can be very painful to the pokemon and damage it's ability to fly. It naturally sheds one about every ten posts. The feather on it's own is (one) worthless and (two) far too sharp to be easily handled by human hands. If a Pawniard or Bisharp picks up the feather and holds it for five posts, it can fashion it a handle, shape it and sharpen it farther making it into the item.

I'm not writing creepy Nintendo slash fic with you especially not one between a pokemon and some angry ammunition.

Ehhh... I'm so-so on this. Makes sense, but probably with a better sprite it'd get my vote.

To be fair, this is the first half decent idea I've seen you produce. Like Roku said, a better sprite is needed. It also needs a tad more information, for instance.. How do you go about obtaining theese Skarmory feathers, and how would you get a supply of them? Answering that question with a decent explination would get a yes from me.

Production explanation is done.

What do I need to do to the sprite? The blade itself, is a curved feather off of

:skarmory

and the handle is based off

:bisharp

Bisharp's glove-like hands.

It looks like it makes sense, is discernible and clean; at least to me, wanting a different shape to it or something?

Just to note. Pawniard have no hands so you may want to take them out of the written part.

Wording needs to be corrected. If it only works for those three, then it needs to say "Raises the Crit. Hit Ratio of Bisharp, Speelclaw, and Fantamdura when using a Steel Type move" or "Raises the Crit. Hit Ratio of Steel type moves when held by Bisharp, Speelclaw, or Fantamdura."

I'll look up the other Pokemon related items and Type enhancing items to give a better description, but "only works for" is kinda like saying only these can hold it which is in accurate.

Also...Speelclaw doesn't have any visible hands as far as I can see. I see an arm bu no physical hand is present so you may want to ask Sora if he can hold it.

As for my Fantamdura...I dunno. He already has a sword attatched to his body and his hand isn't supposed to be extremely mobile as his hand was supposed to be fingers that appeared out of the sword/shield. I don't see him capable of using another sword.

That's more like it. Not ideal in my opinion, but atleast your thinking abit more clearly. However, this is something that you would have to get admin aproval from I would imagine. The "Skarmory naturally shedding one about every ten posts." thing.
