Whoever designed these Valentines sprites *chef kiss* Both the Volcarona and Honedge line look so good and the colors for them are amazing, props to the artist/s? (dunno if it was the same person or not but yea these are great)

I'm glad to hear you like them, I designed all the Valentine's sprites this year ^w^ The Volcarosa sprite was also done by me, although the swords were done by someone else...

I’m the one who made the honedge variant sprites. c: Quirky, however, is the one who made the design for them. I simply executed her design as pixels. I’m very glad to hear that you like them. ^-^

I absolutely love these romantic swords and I can't wait to get mine from the event! The shiny and albino colors look so good, too! ; w; <3

I really like Aegislash so i'm so happy about the new variant and redone sprites, looks waay better. and the new rose guy is super super cute

The redone and swords look amazing! Definitely need some swords of my own now.

Okay, sooo. Usually I like most of the sprite revamps going on lately, today's Vivillon update is looking very... strange for me. Scatterbug and Spewpa are just fine, the Vivillon though For some reason, possibly because of pixel limitation, its wings look unnatural for most part. Like it was spread all over like those poor butterflies that are ready to be pinned to a board by a lepidopterist (and I know what I'm speaking about, my dad was one). Lower wings seem dried out because of the lines that make them more square-ish than rounded on the edges, like two pieces of paper straightened out and attached. Then, the part where the lower wings go together connecting to the upper ones is too wide, spread out like they are ready to be ripped apart - again, like butterflies left for drying by a collector. All in all, this sprite makes me feel slightly uncomfortable...

I'm really, really not in the boat of liking what was done with Vivillon's melans... or the line in general. The sprite work is amazing and personally I'm fine with it, but... For colour, it just feels like there's some dark coloured shade/multiply layer plopped on top of shiny just so it looks melan enough and that's it... ;v; Going to really miss the old look of a rich, luxurious reddish vibes of the Vivillon line melans.

The Talonflame line was *grasp* gorgeous! I had been aiming for an melan Fletchling and now I want them more! And also, about the Vivillons, I was so disappointed. I liked the demon-like reddish of them (not meaning melans are evil) so bad... going to miss them ;(

spewpa was such a nice red melan, now it look really washed out and bland ;-;
