I laughed but kindly don't in the future.Spent a few hours on this, turned out alright

*Points over to BST Thread 6.5* Go there, chump.I'm not so sure woodman will win. It's a very very cool character but I'm not sure how pokemony it is.
I couldn't imagine before how the deer could do its attacks but Cartoons your animation really clinched it as a strong contender for me.
Beautiful art with the lava snake too - I'm sure it could be a viable pokemon but we could do with seeing how it would look in various poses.
KoA your cocktrice is definitely a very cool idea but mucho needing colour pleease!
Elagune my hat goes off to you be don't abandon Gentle Giant yet please! I much prefer him to woodman as he looks way more like a pokemon - but needs a more distinctive fire element to it - a way to shoot flames!
My original idea was a Carnivine evo with a gaping maw and with vine 'hoses' that would pump flammable gas to be ignited as a flamethrower but I'm so crap at drawing I just knew it would never catch on. With this in mind I hope you don't mind me tacking on the hoses to Gentle Giant? I've just done one arm because it took me ages in Paint but I imagine he'd have 3 hoses per arm.
Alternatively maybe GG could keep his big meaty fists for punches but have two or three flamethrower vine-tails? That way he would be a great mixed sweeper. Can you imagine the flamethrower vines arching over his shoulders?

Woodman is bulky. We are also not doing a duo, nor working off pre-evos. GOD PEOPLE GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!Actually, this could sorta be like a Solrock/Lunatone (Volbeat/Illumise) styled work. Two pokemon who are similar, yet can perform at different tasks. This way, we could have two different BSTs, allowing for one to sub-seed/bulky and the other to be a sweeper. (Again, satisfying all)
Also, it would help in the quest for the art. There are many (many) great pieces of work here, and this would allow us to use two. I think the majority has voted upon the 'Woodman'. How about a second be voted upon that is more bulky?
I just wanted to put this on the current page. I think there is something to note. It would be cool to do a duo, and would satisfy the masses.
Deer = pwnage, Deer = Shaymin evo (grass body), Shaymin Evo =/= CAP, Deer =/= Current discussion in the 6.5 thread, Deep =/= Bulky, Woodman = Bulky, Woodman = Discussion in 6.5 thread.The deer hardly looks like a Shaymin evolution, maybe because of the flowers on its back. If anything KoA's first evolution looks similar to Shaymin, but thats hardly a problem. I really like the deer, as well as quite a few others in this thread. Very good art everyone!
*Points to 6.5 thread*The deer I'm sure would be a nice bulky sweeper/tank. It has the structure to be able to survive hits. Would also give it the medium-fast speed BS of around 85-95.
Please explain how a grass hedgehog evolve into a damn grass deer with flaming antlers? I lol'd major hard after reading this.Deer = pwnage, Deer = Shaymin evo (grass body), Shaymin Evo =/= CAP, Deer =/= Current discussion in the 6.5 thread, Deep =/= Bulky, Woodman = Bulky, Woodman = Discussion in 6.5 thread.
Wood ArmorI am not trying to turn this into ability thread but i have answer this
You suggested Rock head which is only on rocky earthy type pokes( with 1 exception) .
You suggested solid rock which is on a rock type and fire/ground Camerupt(volcanic poke hence magma volcanic rock)
Flame body,Battle armor and Intimidate make some sense but you suggested rock head and solid rock and you have the nerve to tell me that chlorophyll does fit.Please
it's funny how you post this all the damn time even though i was the one to suggest it, and you were the one saying "fire grass has no role in today metagame"Crushing BulkyWaters/Grounds/Steels.
Read everything so far, i'm only being a sheep =pPlease explain how a grass hedgehog evolve into a damn grass deer with flaming antlers? I lol'd major hard after reading this.
uh i dunno about you guys but that elk looks fucking bulky to me
But faster then bulky

I'm the biggest hypocrite around, just go on shoddy. Also, i missed that crucial detail that it does infact do that.

Yes we are not making a Shaymin evo sure. However to use your terminology, deer =/= Shaymin evolution. Just because it shares one aspect with another Pokemon doesn't make it void. If anything it looks a bit similar to Stantler but then look at pikachu, pachirisu, plusle and minun. Not a problem.Deer = pwnage, Deer = Shaymin evo (grass body), Shaymin Evo =/= CAP, Deer =/= Current discussion in the 6.5 thread, Deep =/= Bulky, Woodman = Bulky, Woodman = Discussion in 6.5 thread.
That sums up why i'm voting for Woodman and not for the deer.
I really wasn't wanting to discuss the BST thanks chump. I mentioned that one idea didn't currently look as if it had anything to shoot beams from hence I added some hose style vines to the design so it would be a more believable mixed/special sweeper not a physical sweeper since it was decided that we wouldnt be making a physical sweeper. I was merely discussing the artwork. Is that clear enough now mate?*Points over to BST Thread 6.5* Go there, chump.
We've already decided not to make an evo, so drop the Carnivine shit. Btw, the woodman reminds me of Grovyle, the head just does.
Also it does look "Pokemony". Does Syclant? Does Revenankh? No, not really. We can always "Pokefy" shit in the sprite polls.

In terms of the base stats, I admit I am not following the thread on it but the deer could easily be bulky. As previously mentioned a sprite does not need to completely follow stats but even saying that, the deer has a large body, I think it could have high HP and defenses.
This is not the thread for stat talk however so I will leave it at that. Like I said I love the Woodman, snake and quite a few others as well but we can't just dismiss genuinely good ideas for no reason.

And Woodman has no cannons to shoot beams from, especially not the ones shown in the animation? [/sarcasm]
I Know we've already decided not to make an evo, that's why I said in my post that I gave up on the Carnivine evo idea. You completely missed the point which was to explain why I was adding to Elagune's artwork rather than drawing my own from scratch.
Right, but i still don't see how Carnivine or a Evo idea has anything to do with woodman, as they look completely different.
Your opinion is that woodman looks like a pokemon. IMO it does not though of course it can be 'pokefied'.
In which way does it not? Of course, everyone is entitled to theur opinion.
Also IMO Revenankh fits incredibly well with the pokemon look but I'm sure KoA could sprite anything and make it look like a pokemon.
KoA is not the official CAP Sprites *Shoots evil glance at KoA*
I actually think the deer looks completely unlike Shaymin and i dont think Cartoons meant it to be an evo.
Take away flowers and change body art plz.
This. I don't see what would count as a whip on him, since the tail wouldn't really work in any conceivable way in that regard, and those two attacks definitely work with his art.If Woodsman doesn't get Power Whip, having Rock Head or a Rock Head equivalent might be nice for those Wood Hammers/Flare Blitzes.
Thanks! Feels great to hear something like that from the undisputed master of Easytoon around here. You're going to have to show me some time how you managed to make your frames look so similar and organized, though. My frames morph like a Ditto.Hey, Elagune, that animation is pretty good for your first go!
