karofsky, xD all I can manage to find are froakies as well! I haven't been able to find anything else.. had to trade for them.

Gamble, nice :p lucky you got it.

Though I still need the rest of Arceus, I only have about half of the collection >: I don't think I'll be able to click that much in the next few days, so I'll have to trade for them.

yankeesrule3526, I personally don't like that very much. It reminds me to much of this fashion case from the game, which I also don't like... xD'

Ribbons that are won by contests/beating the elite four etc.? Or just decorations from the musical etc. ?

I like the first thing.

yankeesrule3526, It doesn't match to the Pokemon images thought. o.O I personally don't like it, but if some users want to add stuff like this to their pokemon (and make them look weird), why not?

I'd probably not use it myself (depends on the items available, though) but if others liked it, I wouldn't mind having additional decoration stuff.

yankeesrule3526, I like the idea, but the artwork doesn't fit to the pokemon-artwork.

People already use the Gracidea Flower to decorate their Pokemon [; I think if the items look nice enough I might consider putting a few on my adopts.

i like it as a small addition to your VAs. it's a cute way to customize them a little more. but if you don't like it you don't have to use it :)

I think such things as bows and decoration stuff could be very nice if you could decide where you want to put it on the picture.
For example I never put something like the gracidea flower on some Pokemon now, because with some artworks it looks ugly, because the flower is hiding the foot or tail of the Pokemon and that makes it look... strange. (Same with everstones, but those I wouldn't use to decorate my adopt xD) The items are always placed on the left bottom.
I don't really know if it would be possible to program it, but I'd like to for example put the bow on top of the head, or at the neck or elsewhere, where it looks good x3
And then also being able to change the colour of the item (or buy items with different colours) would make each adopt a bit more individual ;)
Those who don't like decoration stuff don't have to buy it/ use it.

Just an idea, again, I have no idea of how realistic this is .

Just decoration? Or would we also get more money when we click that adopt for example? The effect of that item...
Decorations with an effect would be cool.

Akemie, hmm. i see your point with making things match VA artstyle, but that is a lot of work to pull off (depending on how many items there are) xD
But if its just for purely decoration and just a little side thing to add, I think it's fine, since some people add pixelated items as decoration to their adopts already =)

It's like Akemie said. If the item would have the same style as the pokemon, it could look good (depends on the item) :3
Can you put the items only in the left corner then?

the items are so small it would be difficult to actually draw them and have them still look good, especially since our adopts have transparent backgrounds. almost anything besides sprites are hard to design at that small of a size.


plus, we already have sprite images that people are using on their VAs (gracidea, soothe bell, etc). so i don't really see how these are any uglier than those.
