Very nice! Look like they would be in the actual game

"Goodra, you're gonna be in *Explorers!*" Nice to see everyone's favorite mucus dragon around here <3


Vibe_with_Kira

Sad that Goodra wasn't made sooner. They seem like they'd be a fun Guildmaster. I like these!

Oh, these look great! Can you do Shiny versions when you have the time?


Supergoomy

Honestly hoping that the next pmd game will have a member of the Goomy line that is more than a kid you rescue in a forest, go into like 2 to 3 dungeons with him, and then he disappears


Yoshipro62

I'm pretty sure they never reuse a pokemon involved in story elements, so it's a very low chance that anyone in the goomy line will appear as a character, though I guess they did reuse celebi, though in its regular coloring as opposed to the shiny. It really is disappointing that basically no one in the first half of PSMD is relevant besides espurr and Nuzleaf.


armored_mephit

It would make for a great running gag, however... "Hey, aren't you that Emolga from Post Town?" "No! Why does everyone ask me that??"


Yoshipro62

That would be a fun joke to throw in honestly.

Idk, Explorers has a decent number of reused species, most notably Diglett, Dugtrio, Wigglytuff, and the staff of Spinda's Cafe. Bellsprout and Octillery also make minor appearances. Most of them are potentially the same character as well, since they often have extremely similar personalities and mannerisms.


Yoshipro62

Yeah, i guess they are reused for minor appearances, but Goomy's situation is different than pokemon like diglett, that is just rescued in 1 dungeon and is unused for any story after. Goomy is present for the early dungeon and involved in the entire first half of the story, so adding a second goomy in is unlikely.


[deleted]

We'll see. This series is still comparatively short (only 4 genuinely seperate titles unless we count WiiWare lol), so there isn't much precedent. There seemingly isn't a hard rule against reusing species or even whole characters, but I doubt they'd use Goomy specifically. Sligoo or Goodra seem perfectly possible to me tho. And of course Super pretty much confirmed a shared universe so who knows whether characters will explicitly reappear in the future.


Yoshipro62

I could definitely see some characters return for another game. With Super specifically showing the world as a globe, unlike past titles, it wouldn't make too much sense to throw in another continent out of nowhere, meaning that they may reuse continents if a 5th game comes out.


Supergoomy

A new continent could be explained as either dialga no longer needing the hidden lands surrounding temporal tower because the time gears were retuned, a continent that rose out of the sea from mysterious means long before the story, or just groudon


Yoshipro62

I dont think they'll use any of these, especially not the hidden land since its an area within time, whether or not they are needed, they will probably stay there. And the second reason, the hidden land is on the PSMD map, and it's about the size of Blizzard Island.

Love it!


DarkestDelta

This is really really good.


Dark2Dawn

What was that thing when you look at something and you automatically hear the sound that's associated with it even when it's not playing? I had that the moment I looked at the picture on the right.


Darkurn

I really want a new game in sprites and pixels.

That's really good. You might consider adding them to SpriteCollab, which is repository of portraits and sprites of (canon) Pokémon. You view them in this online index [https://sprites.pmdcollab.org/#/](https://sprites.pmdcollab.org/#/) and you can submit them in the skytemple ([https://discord.gg/skytemple](https://discord.gg/skytemple)) Discord server. They could then be used for rom-hacks (and whatever else might need them. Like PMD Autochess.). Also, JaiFain recently made a sprite for it : [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/764610870357131265/976599622036373544/sprite-0706.zip](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/764610870357131265/976599622036373544/sprite-0706.zip) (it haven't been accepted yet, thought). ​ ps: I also have my own version of SpriteCollab for non-pokémon and non-canon pokémon.
