Why yes, I am still a pokémon fan. >_> Say what you will, I'm still cool!

A science experiment (with possibly questionable intentions) warps the elemental powers of three pokémon, dragging Team Rocket into the affair and turning Ember Whitestorm's pokémon journey into a bit of a tangled mess. Anyway, this is my first comic, and a just-for-fun sort of thing, so don't expect anything too heavy. ^_^ Currently undergoing painful and traumatizing revamps, so updates will be sporatic for a lil' while.

I totally rushed this page... spent maybe- maybe- a total of three, three and a half hours, mostly just now. I woke up and started working on it. Considering I woke up at noon and didn't get down fer another hour (Pearlpearlpearl) I doubt any of you feel too sorry for me. =P

So yes. Return of Generic Bugcatcher 1! He needs a name. Even though he's gonna stick around for, like, three or four pages. x3

OH! Before I forget. The black speech bubble with white letters? I decided that was gonna signal pokeSpeak well before this page. x3 So Ember and all the other humans can't understand it; only 'Claw and the other pokemon can. ^^()

xDD I hate trainer battles (when IM not in the mood for em obviously lol, otherwise they're good for lvling up) and when you try to avoid eye contact they look right at you as you try to sneak by and its like NOO! xDD I cant wait to see what happenes next!

Annoying That is an annoying rule when it's a long route between towns and you're screaming "Pokemon Center!" but there's still a buncha trainers in your way. You can try to sneak by them, sure, but that's not always easy.

Good luck, Ember!

You can say that again, Brante.
But theres something I always go by in any and all rpg game.
Make sure you brought plenty of healing items!
Although its hard to do it when your low on money. x.x

I like how Claw's talking in the first panel and I love the chibis! You draw such good chibis! :3

EmberGryphon, 22 May 2007 09:11 pm

XxHaNixX: Me, too! ;-; Most annoying. Ee, and thanks muchly! =3
Ghost: Me, too. ;-;
Vye Brante: Eek, I know! And then when you wanna level up and you go back to the ones you've snuck past, they're too weak to help you out any... x_X
Kool: True, that. ^^
Catqueen: Thankyou! Those chibis were uncharacteristically annoying to do... Photoshop doesn't work so well with tiny subjects. x3

xD Man that makes me laugh. I've been playing a lot of Sapphire, and I'm having exactly that problem at this point. Either way, looks good, and nice use of the grass tool ;)

woo!
this is so cute.
what do you use to draw these comics?
<3

EmberGryphon, 26 May 2007 09:56 pm

Kami- That's a damn lie. There is no 'nice' use of the grass tool, I'm just a confessed cheater. =P

bleedingbeloved- Thankyou! ^_^ I'm fancy and use a Wacom tablet and Photoshop Elements- which is a nice program, in spite of it coming free with the tablet. =3
