Err, the number of unique Pokemon that shows up in your profile. Also, those numbers are from the achievements. I'll go back and count it for myself. And, you're probably right and I will include ALL Pokemon when I redo the numbering.

Thanks for you input. You're accepted.

Posted by: Izzy Swagg Feb 14 2010, 04:06 PM

I won't be re-applying but I think you could have asked to re-use the images before putting them here or at least gave credit.

I truely apologize. I was told I could just take the contents of the first post of the original group. Again, I'm sorry about that and I will either remove them or we can credit you, whichever you prefer.

Hiraelle: accepted.

You can use them if you want to. I just sometimes see people taking things w/o the courtesy of asking the creator but not totally your fault in this case.

The problem with that is that they include forms (unique also includes novelties). Not sure if you wanted to include those or not.

I added you to the list.

;-;

We need a contest or something. Maybe something to do w/ breeding novelties. Something new, haha. But we need more members first.

Posted by: Poseidon Feb 15 2010, 10:55 PM

5 members (7 including us) is not enough to hold a contest yet. I say we need at least 10+ members. So everyone, ADVERTISE.

Also, I have an IRC channel. It's on the same server as the #gtsplus channel.
So you can use that applet and then type /join #cobalt

I'll create a set of instructions on better ways to access it when I get a chance and update the first post with it. Also, if anyone wants to make banners, feel free to send them my or MisterGrieves' way (preferably MG, since he's in charge of that).

It's quite fine. It gave me time to finish off the last of the pokemon I was working on before anyone saw it. I have reached the most difficult part, and knowing my luck, I'll be almost done and Gen V will come out postponing my victory. ;o;

Both of you look good. MisterGrieves will update the list when he can. Also, Mister, can you set Lilred as "Founder" on the memberlist? Thanks.

Here's an update on my situation not including Unown or legendaries (For the achievements):
Kanto: 145/146 - Damn you Ditto.
Johto: 91/93 - I need 2 Kings Rocks to evolve Pokemon
Hoenn: 108/128 - I'm working through the last bunch of Pokemon. I need some evolution items as well.
Sinnoh: Haven't even started.

It's looking like I'll be getting a summoning item out of Johto soon as well as Hoenn. happy.gif

Posted by: MisterGrieves Feb 24 2010, 11:15 PM

I just added the numbers above to get my total of unique pokemon, is that ok?

Posted by: LilRed Feb 25 2010, 10:07 PM

I think we should have something like badges or awards for the group memebers .-.

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Feb 26 2010, 02:53 PM

Bleeh, I'm in an unfortunate position.
I'm not moving anywhere in my collection progress because I can't find any Voltorb eggs ;_;


Found some Voltorb eggs haha....
but still...
Maybe we should open up breeding services? Or something cat.gif

Posted by: Poseidon Feb 26 2010, 08:02 PM

I like both ideas that have been presented. There are three things I really want to do when I get some time:

1. Contests.
2. Badges/Achievements
3. Breeding Services (Good idea!)

If anyone wants to contribute some ideas to setting any of these up or even donating images for advertising OR badges, I'd really appreciate it. I don't know how much I can do this weekend, because I'm completely busy all weekend. But we'll see. So just let me know if you guys have any ideas of the 3 Events.

Posted by: MisterGrieves Feb 27 2010, 12:17 AM

At the moment, I'll make five badges (well, I'll just steal the achievements from gpx+) and give them to the users we currently have.

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Feb 27 2010, 03:28 PM

Btw.... what do you think of this?

I can redo it. I did it kinda quick so.... bleh.

Posted by: Poseidon Feb 27 2010, 05:58 PM

I think it looks pretty good. Can you blend the Pokedex render into the background a bit more?

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Feb 27 2010, 06:03 PM

Is this anymore blended?

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Feb 27 2010, 06:22 PM

It's kinda too late.

I'm just going to do a new one. Any specific colors?

Posted by: Poseidon Feb 27 2010, 06:41 PM

Nope, go wild. I think we'll use that anyway. If we get like 3 or 4 banners I'll make a RandImg thing at the top of the first post. But MisterGrieves can add that to his post.

I can try my hand at some badges. I'm not a super-awesome spriter, but I think I can pull something together. Also, if we set up a breeding thing, I'd be willing to do some, since I'm close to being done, though nothing pure-bred since I still lack a Ditto. >.>

Posted by: MisterGrieves Feb 28 2010, 01:50 PM

Yes, once I'm done with these blasted breeding achievements, I'd also be able to take breeding requests for this group. Having a ditto, every novelty, and every non very-rare Pokemon xD

Posted by: Poseidon Feb 28 2010, 02:02 PM

Alright, I'll make a section in the first post regarding breeding. Everyone, remember to advertise!

@Raven Kouryuu, any help on badges, be it ideas or sprites, would be greatly appreciated.

Also, just an update on my current status, I'm basically done Hoenn (except for leveling up Shelgon). That does not include item leveling Pokemon. I sort of want to save up for summoning items/fossils in the shop and, ultimately, the Lucky Egg. So I don't want to waste any points on evolution items/stones right now. I am going to be starting to breed Gulpin to get a shiny one so I can get the Pokii's Rage, Selective Hoarder, and Enough Already achievements at the same time. Afterwords, I'll get back on track with the Sinnoh dex.

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Feb 28 2010, 06:14 PM

I'm going slowly but surely in my collection =3

And as for breeding, I can breed, I just have a limited amount I can breed.
I can breed Bulba Clones, Winter Vulpix, and Easter Buneary, [And soon Remorages]
And anything else I've collected for my collection and what not.

Completion of Sinnoh Dex: 29/106

I know my Dex is pretty much empty but I'm going to start building it up. awesome.gif

And i think a breeding service would be good, when you cant find that one pokemon that just seems to be avoiding you, you can just ask a breeder to help. grin.gif

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Feb 28 2010, 09:50 PM

I had sprites ready but I accidentally Jpeg'd them, so I might not have them until tomorrow. They're just ribbons, inspired by the Dex achievements, with two per region and two for completion. Thinking about making a Form ribbon and Novelty ribbon for people who want to go that extra mile for their Dex, since I'm starting over. If anyone else has any ideas for a badge/achievement feel free to put them out there and I'll work on those too.

EDIT:

Hey, a pleasant surprise. I managed to get them done again, without killing them. >.> They're nothing fancy, but I like them. Each badge has the colors from the regions' trio, with the Master/Triumphant ribbons as the exceptions, for obvious reasons. Now with 100% more pointless flavor text.

Thanks~ I was beginning to fret over them like I do with all my stuff. Though now I have a bunch of new things to use if we need more badge type things.

Also, if we go by the flavor text, I'm not eligible for the Johto Ribbon as I still lack an Unown. bucktooth.gif

Posted by: MisterGrieves Mar 1 2010, 10:52 PM

Alright, I edited them all in.

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 2 2010, 11:56 AM

I thought of a neat first contest, for when we get some more members (or whenever). It would be a mascot contest. Entrants would choose a pokemon that could be our mascot, with their reasoning provided, and would either make a sprite or a Dress Up for it. Whichever entry is judged as the best would be our mascot, and I'd be willing to make a badge/trophy for the winner.

Posted by: MisterGrieves Mar 2 2010, 07:30 PM

That's actually a pretty good idea. I'm all for it, if Poseidon approves of course.

Also, I made you a contributor on the member list, for the badges and what-not happy.gif

I hope to be accepted, I appologise if I miscounted (should be within 2 +/- in any one area)

Posted by: MisterGrieves Mar 2 2010, 07:47 PM

That's totally alright, I added you to the list :)

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 2 2010, 07:56 PM

I'm all game for that idea. It really sounds great. I say starting next week, we do it. Also, you added Nero to the memberlist, but I don't think we formally accepted him. So welcome!

The reason I would like to start it next week is because I have baseball tryouts all this week so I'm pretty swamped with that and homework. So my role here will be limited until this weekend. I'm trying my best to click people, but some days I might not be able to and same goes for this group.

I am sure MisterGrieves can hold down the fort for the next week and I will try to pop in. grin.gif

Posted by: MisterGrieves Mar 2 2010, 08:06 PM

Of course. I haven't been clicking much myself, but I do check on this topic at least once a day. Plus, we'll have more members by then. Oh, for the contest, shall we PM the whole user list to get the word out?

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 2 2010, 08:08 PM

Next week is fine. I'll have more or less beaten Explorers of Sky by then so I'll be able to focus more on this place before I pick up my copy of Soul Silver. *awesome face*

In the meantime, though, I've made a bunch of ribbon templates, this time from scratch. I figure contest ribbons would mean more if they were done special. I have color palettes for gold, silver and bronze medals and a bunch of colors for the ribbons themselves. I forgot how much fun spriting was~

Also, welcome Nero and Demothi~

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Mar 2 2010, 10:42 PM

I'll also try and get that banner in tomorrow.
Been kind of swamped lately with school and what not. :\

If I were you MisterGrieves, I would send a PM to the member list because I don't think some members check here often.

Good luck with your try-outs Poseidon cat.gif

Well, definitely when you are eligible for a badge, so they know when to award one, but other then that I don't think you really /have/ to update. Of course, if you get something awesome, or want to share that you got something you were working hard towards, that would be fine too. I personally keep a running tally by updating my original post, mostly for my own reference. Hope this helps~

Epsilon, you did join :]

And Demothi, it's up to you. Whenever you feel like you wanna share it, as long as you're not spamming haha. And Raven is right, you should post when you're eligible for a badge so I know to update the list.

Lulz I didn't notice my name in the memberlist. pinch.gif

So I made it. Practices everyday. So basically I'll be doing school-baseball-homework-sleep. Homework includes clicking my pal pad. So I guess I'll try to show up any time there's a new post because I do get email notifications. But yeah, my clicking will be toned down a lot.

I love the badges! <3
And I also think we need to throw that mascot contest.

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 7 2010, 11:40 PM

Congratulations Poseidon on making the team.

I had an idea, and feel free to tell me to stfu if you don't like it, but what if we also noted those that have the non very rare dex (by region of course)/or complete dex that have leveled all the pokemon to level 100? I mean once I complete the dexes I want something else to work on so my plan was to level the pokemon to 100 and have a topped out living dex, and I was thinking since it will take a long time and quite a bit of effort it might be worth it to give an extra kuddos to those people. IF this is liked by others I am willing to do the ribbons for that so as to not overload Raven with unplanned work. As I said if the idea isn't liked just let me know.

I kind of like that idea, since I'm planning on it too *shameless plug*. And I can do the ribbons, as they take me next to no time to do and I have plenty of time on my hands. All I need is the go-ahead.

Also, congrats Poseidon!

I'm all too glad that my season is over, waaaayyy too much work. So good luck too.

Posted by: Epsilon Mar 11 2010, 06:16 PM

I just have to heatch Solrock and level up Beldum to Metang and the Hoenn dex is complete!

Posted by: LilRed Mar 11 2010, 06:41 PM

Do you need just one unown for the johto ribbons...or all of them lol

Posted by: Epsilon Mar 11 2010, 10:01 PM

Just 1 for Johto but all for Pokedex Master.

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Mar 11 2010, 10:34 PM

I'm closing in on my Kanto dex. Just a couple more and that accursed Ditto dry.gif

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 12 2010, 03:45 PM

I only need Ditto for the Kanto dex, but in lue of actually having a chance at finding one I am working on Johto. at 56 (including my 1 unknown but not including my legendaries) of them.

Hey... I was wonder, cause I have been having a hard time finding them, could any one breed even one of the eggs I have left to get for Johto?

Need:
Skarmory
Stantler
Swablu

Any of those would be a great help for me so that I can start seriously leveling and evolving to get the rest of the pokemon for Johto.

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 12 2010, 05:10 PM

Thanks everyone! I really like the idea about leveling Pokemon in the dex up to 100 because I was also planning on doing that. happy.gif I've sort of been handling both a shiny Gulpin hunt and working on the Sinnoh dex, but I haven't formally started counting/organizing those Pokemon. I would really appreciate it if someone could breed me a Turtwig egg because I can never seem to find them in the shelter.

Demothi Ryuu, if I get a shiny Gulpin soon, I'll go ahead and start on those. But if not, someone else can take those up.

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 12 2010, 05:16 PM

Depending on how the shelter looks tomorrow, I might start some breeding for you guys. I've put badge chasing on hold so I've starting shiny hunting, so I'll probably switch them soon.

Posted by: Epsilon Mar 12 2010, 06:54 PM

I've mastered Hoenn.

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 12 2010, 08:17 PM

Poseidon, I dropped my Turtwig and Kangeskhan into the day care, they can't stand to look at each other, but they will breed eventually, but I wanted to use another rare so that each egg has a 50/50 chance of being a Turtwig, sorry I don't have a Silph Scope so I won't know if any of them are Turtwigs, but I will start letting you know when there are eggs.

On another note, you can scratch Swablu off my list, shelter liked me enough to give me one awesome.gif so just skarmory and stantler left.

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 12 2010, 08:53 PM

Alright guys, I'm ready to announce the first contest. I don't think I need to run this one by MisterGrieves because it's just a basic, start-up contest.

The goal is to make a mascot for the group, Dexter's Lab. There is a second part of this which will be judged separately. The second part is to make a banner that will go at the top of the topic. If you enter both parts of the contest, you can use the mascot you make/chose.

Part I: to make a mascot for this group.

Rules:
The mascot can either be completely original or one of the existing Pokemon.
No size requirements.


Part II: to make a banner for this group.

Rules:
Must be 400 x 200
Must relate to the group in some way.
Text must be: "Dexter's Lab", at the least.


There aren't many rules/regulations for this contest because this is mostly a creative thing. Prizes are probably going to be ribbons/badges.

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 12 2010, 09:16 PM

Yay~! Contest time!

As a question, since I'm the one responsible for the ribbons, is it fair that I enter the contest too? If not, I'd like to judge, if possible.

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 12 2010, 09:25 PM

Yeah of course you can enter the contest. MisterGrieves and I will judge, unless he wants to participate. In which case, I'll just do the judging.

cat.gif Nice, I'll hop to getting my sprite done. My next question is: when is the deadline? Just so I have an idea of how fast I need to work on my entry and the ribbons.

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 12 2010, 10:20 PM

It'll probably last two weeks.

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 12 2010, 11:13 PM

I will probably be entering soon, at least for the mascot portion.

Posted by: M0lecuL3 Mar 13 2010, 11:02 PM

I am so happy right now. I got a Ditto from the Lab ditto.gif
awesome.gif

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 14 2010, 04:47 AM

Congrats M0l, Now I wish I could find one -_-2.gif or a Stantler or Skarmory, they are a serious pain in my rear.....

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 14 2010, 10:35 PM

Congrats M0lecul3! I keep dropping money on Repels, so I'm hoping to snag one one of these days.

Posted by: Hiraelle Mar 15 2010, 07:10 AM

Congrats, M0lecul3 happy.gif

I almost completed my Kanto dex, I only have to evolve Elekid, hatch Pinsir, and find an Aerodactyl egg (I'll find it when I'll stop searching for it) cat.gif And of course I need a Ditto, but I don't really hope to find one x)
I'm going for Hoenn dex next smugnod.gif

I can't join the contest since I don't know how to make these things blush.gif (well, at least I can't make good things dry.gif )

According to the first post it is just one (the other Unknown are considered Forms of which you don't need all of them)


Update on my huning...
Stantler hates me... that is all.

Found myself a Skarmory egg in the Shelter, but still missing Stantler. Evolving others for now.

For just starting, the mascot sprite is really good. As a suggestion, if you can, download Paint.Net. It's a free version of what is basically MSPaint on steroids and it helps with making things transparent. If you plan to keep spriting, it's a good program to have. I typically edit it MSPaint, and make it transparent and double-check in Paint.Net


And I apologize for being so quiet around here. I still need to start my mascot. @_@ SoulSilver is monopolizing my time these days.

Posted by: Epsilon Mar 18 2010, 06:48 PM

This best site to make sprite transparent is iaza.com imo.

Posted by: Poseidon Mar 18 2010, 08:42 PM

Alright guys, I'm officially setting a deadline for both parts on Friday, March 26.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll probably look into it... I am running Win7 so paint is much more effective now, but everything is worth a shot.

Also thank you for the complement, it helps me feel positive when people say stuff like that, In all honesty the only reason I submitted it was because I had it finished, I made myself post it and follow through with it... so it feels good to know that it isn't terrible. If you see something you think I could do to make later work look even better then please PM me and let me know, I take constructive criticism very well.

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu Mar 22 2010, 09:23 AM

Just a note, I'm dropping from the contest, since I've been distracted by a lot of IRL stuff and I doubt I'll have the motivation or time to finish. I had a really ambitious idea and I've come to the realization that I simply don't have time. I might scale it back and enter it if I finish before the deadline, but as it stands I'm on a mini-hiatus from here until early April-ish. I /do/ have the ribbons done, though, so I'll get to uploading those soon.

Posted by: Demothi Ryuu Mar 22 2010, 11:44 AM

Well I got super lucky last night and found a hatched stantler so I don't need any breeding at this time. Thanks to everyone who was willing to help.

Posted by: MisterGrieves Apr 7 2010, 05:06 PM

>__< I meant to apply to join this group a lot earlier, but was too lazy to count through all of the Pokemon in my living dex boxes to see how many I was missing. I think I've filled in all of the gaps, though, so the only Pokemon I'm missing are Jirachi, Azelf, Uxie, and Arceus.

Posted by: MisterGrieves Apr 7 2010, 06:59 PM

Accepted, of course haha. You pretty much own everyone in the memberlist, speaking of the total amount of Pokemon.

Thanks! Though I really don't "own" anyone. I've only got a few more than reddwarfer. ^.^;;

<.< And not to be nitpicky, but I think I get the Johto and Kanto Master Ribbons, too. (since I have all of the legendaries from both regions, as well as all of the Unown and Ditto)

Edit: You can also add the Hoenn Master Ribbon to that, too, since I just got Jirachi! =D The only region I've left to complete now is Sinnoh!

Posted by: Hiraelle Apr 22 2010, 06:16 PM

I've now caught all the non-Legendary pokemon from Hoenn (and got a green orb for it... that would have been awesome if I hadn't bought another one just a few hours earlier facepalm.gif ). So I think I can have the Hoenn ribbon now...

Posted by: Marshal Tilka May 7 2010, 03:53 AM

My living pokedex is now donedone (minus legendarys). I did get a Ditto oneday and today I did found Shroomish for Shroomish since it was the last one from my living pokedex :_D so now I just need sit and wait for legendarys.. boring as hell. Ou and Unowns totally forget that I only have one of those..

Posted by: Raven Kouryuu May 7 2010, 10:30 AM

I live!

Yeah, apologies for the giant hiatus. Things got really crazy for me and I had no access to my computer for a while. But, things are back to 'normal' and so I'm back. On a side note to this, I have managed to grab an Unown (finally!), so I have finally earned the Johto Ribbon~ Now all that is left is a blasted Ditto, which are still just as hard to get despite their more frequent appearances. pinch.gif

http://gpxpl.us/boNwq
Here's the Unown I caught, for proof ^

Edit: So I just grabbed a Ditto egg, which once it hatches qualifies me for the Kanto Ribbon as well, along with the Master Ribbon. Getting closer to some of the regional Master Ribbons, as I now own a Mewtwo, a Shaymin and *soon* I'll have a Ho-Oh. Completion is so close I can almost taste it~
