• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Pokemon Copper

Plot

~Plot:
This is a region of lush forests, rocky mountains and sparkling lakes. The legendaries of the land work together to keep the peace, and above them, there is Claw, a Pokemon of many talents and of great strength. Legend has it that only the Copper Flute can tame the legendaries, and when the Flute goes missing from Professor Pine's lab, the world is in panic. And when you, a young person aged thirteen, dream of Claw calling for help, you set on a quest to save the legendaries from the unknown menace.

Characters

~Professor:
Prof. Pine, female. She enrolls you in the Pokemon School, and the adventure begins.
No sprite yet.

~Heroine:
Copperheroes.png

(the sprite is a mash-up of other sprites, just for an idea of what she looks like)
Name when not heroine: Kira

~Hero:
no sprite
Name when not hero: your choice.

~Dark Claw:
Claw's brother and nemesis. I know it sounds cheesy, but oh well. Is a Pokemon that made a Poke-ball that cannot catch himself, but catches other legendaries. He also has three unknown Pokemon, and controls human minions by mind-control.
Yeah, real cheesy.

~Solace:
Champion of the Elite Four, but roams Myrno. For some reason, Dark Claw fears her...

Other character suggestions are welcome.

The Gym Leader/Elite Four names are... well, really bad.

Generally the Pokémon games pick names that are at least somewhat similar to a real name, even when they do the "name relates to the type" thing--Brock and Candice are real names that just happen to have "rock" and "ice" as part of them, Norman is a real name that just happens to sound similar to "normal," Winona is a real name that has part of the word "wind" (or maybe "wing") in it, and so on.
Some of them don't even have a direct relation to their type--Koga is more of a "he's a ninja" thing, Jasmine doesn't have any metal-related meaning as far as I know, and so on.

I'd suggest changing the names to something that at least sounds like a real name--for the Elite Four members especially, the current names are really bad. Try looking at one of those "597295 baby names" websites/books/etc. and pick something that has a meaning related to their type. Or just give 'em names that have no relation to their type... just because most of the official Gym Leaders/E4 people have type-related names doesn't mean yours have to.
 
Yeah, I had a creativity strike. XD
I'll try thinking of some more, but I have to take a shower now. I'll think during that time.
 
I recently found this forum and have been looking for a good opportunity to get spriting again. if you send me images, I'll see what I can make.
 
Are you happy with the clothes on the sprite you've mashed together on Kira's sprite? Because I'm scratching a new pose and I thought you could say exactly what you envision her wearing
 
Here's an attempt, I think it's pretty good, but then again, I made it :sweatdrop::

I didn't change the overworld sprites because, since her clothes are the same, it doesn't make much difference.
