Yay, my friend made me an avatar fitting for this theme. It combined the creature from my current avatar, Goo, and a Ditto. But she made two versions and I cannot decide which one is better. Opinions?

I think the pink one makes more sense (it looks more like a Goo/Ditto hybrid while the green one just looks like an inexplicably green ditto).

Which would be good, except that shiny ditto is blue.

You could alternate them. I did it for my two Galactusbolds for In Space week.

Though if you only want one go for the pink one.

Ok, i'm giving up, this is what I have so far

I'll try and work out the cartoony-amateuristics kinks out later but inkscape is not being user-friendly at the moment

How did you get Mew/Celebi/Deoxys?

I seem to recall snagging Celebi in Collosseum but it was a long time ago so I'm not sure.

You can snag it with the Japanese bonus disc, but you can't Snag it. (Those who've played the game understand the difference)

Mew is from the Toy R Us event, the other two aren't required.

I remember reading alooong time ago that after complete the National Dex in Hoenn, you talk to the developer guy in Lilycove for something. Then you can go to the space center and ride their rocket to the moon. There, you walk around, until you find a cave and inside is Deoxys.

That would be awesome if it were true.

So frickin' wrong. Deoxys can only be caught on an island only accessible by an Event item. Like nearly every single other Event Pokémon.

[Superglucose]

And like every other event pokemon, totally not worth my time!

[Kobold-Bard]

And what happens to us poor proles who get the game late, don't live in America, and even if we did haven't got a Toys R Us within a very long distance?

Am I doomed to be Mewless? Would it have really killed them to put these Pokemon in the game as normal?[/mini-rant]

Since the GTS protocol has been cracked, you can have pokemon you want in D/P/Pt/HG/SS.

Mew makes an excellent HM slave.

Thanks! I shall try...

Assuming that I'll figure out how this works, could someone make me a Dewgong or Staryu avatar? Pretty please?

I'll get to work on it as soon as you give me a preference between the two styles here. I also need a reference image of the pose you want, or a description of it in moderate detail.

Who's a whatnow? I plan on buying HG today after I turn in my essays and this GTS protocol thing intrigues me.

This will save me much time and expense on plane tickets to America (assuing it works, my luck with things like this is generally quite bad). Thanks much.

Now back to letting people beg for avatars.

Hmm. I have to remember to try this out in the morning.

[AlterForm]

While I was pulling up the bulbapedia pages on Staryu and Dewgong, I stumbled upon the page for Cleffa and decided it was too cute to pass up. Free to good home; PM if you wish to claim it after this post is no longer on the last page of the thread.

As for poses, this one is for Dewgong

Starmie is good,woman's body is a little weird lookin.

[Silverraptor]

I've been seeing avatars of pokemon around and was thinking, "Ah, man. I would love to have an avatar of a pokemin for a week but it's probably almost over by now." However, I realize it doesn't start until May!

So, can I have an avatar of Typhlosion?

The Dewgong is already 2 steps shy of line art, so I did up Staryu.

Hence the "That would be awesome if it were true." statement.
