READ POST 7
Ladies and gentlemen of Smeargle's Studio.
It's that time of year again.
You got it: SMASH TIME.
As I’m sure many of you may have heard, the newest update for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS recently released, bringing with it a host of buffs, nerfs, and general fixes.
But the most exciting thing about the new update had nothing to do with already existing characters. It marked the release of the first-ever character offered as downloadable content: Mewtwo! Despite being a veteran fighter (last seen: Melee), Mewtwo’s release as a playable character means that there may be tons more potential DLC fighters waiting in the wings, and along with the newly unveiled Smash Ballot feature this means the player-base is more pumped than ever for the next confirmed Smasher!
So what does all this mean for Smeargle’s Studio?
Contest time, of course! :)
With all the hullaballoo over the coming waves of DLC characters, which Pokemon-franchise character do you think deserves a position in the Smash roster next?
The contest theme will be based around the above question: Just which Pokemon franchise character would you like to see most in Smash?
Here are the rules regarding your entry:
1. Pick a single entity* from the Pokemon franchise. This is going to be the character(s) you’ll be pushing for in Smash next! It’s alright to pick characters others have already picked, as long as there’s no blatant plagiarism.
(if you have any questions about what refers to a single entity, feel free to ask. Groups of characters akin to Ice Climbers, Rosalina & Luma, or Pokemon Trainer are considered appropriate as long as you include some explanation flavor-wise.)
2. Write a short description of your proposed Smasher, including some basic reasoning as to why you think they are important characters and how they could be interesting in Smash.
3. Now for the main part of your entry: you must include at MINIMUM one picture depicting your character(s) as you would imagine them in Smash. Anything is fine: anything from their ‘official render’ art, to a picture of them battling it out with other Smashers, relaxing after a match with some good food, or even participating in some of the Single-Player modes like Classic/All-Star/Stadium! Basically, almost anything Smash-related should work just fine :D
4. Finally, for those who want to go the extra mile, you can try adding some supporting art or text (like descriptions of interesting specials or attacks you had ideas for, or maybe even taunts).
And here’s what you’ll be fighting for:
-Your pick from this large batch of spitbacks (list not yet uploaded, but will be in due time)
-free, top-priority (whatever that means) requests from renowned Smogon artists Arhops, aXl, Tikitik, f(x), and myself!
-A FABLED MEWTWO 3DS DOWNLOAD CODE, to use for yourself or give to a friend!
One GRAND PRIZE winner will get one free request from any two of the five artists mentioned above, the fabled MEWTWO 3DS DOWNLOAD CODE, and four ‘mons from the batch of spitbacks (list not yet updated, will be soon).
One second prize winner will get one free request from any two of the four remaining artists mentioned above, and wil get to pick three of the remaining ‘mons in the spitback list!
One third-prize winner will get one free request from the last remaining artist and two of the ‘mons leftover in the spitbacks batch.
And two honourable-mentions will win a spitback each from the spitbacks list!
ALL ENTRIES WILL BE DUE BY 12:00 PM EST June 10th, 2015 (unless there aren’t enough entries by then). Good luck!
If you have any questions, please post them in this thread or pm me for more info. Refrain from making reservation posts—at least show some sort of WIP or give some information instead of a one-liner about what you’ll be doing. Thanks!
