Last month, I set myself a new goal: learning Blender (3D modeling software) in my free time, just for fun. After creating two scenes based entirely on video tutorials, I attempted my first original scene from scratch. I'm excited to present to you: Caterpie in the Woods! (High-res version in the comments)

I am actually quite proud of my creation and have now made it my desktop background 🙂‍↕️

With June now upon us, I've set a new goal for myself: learning how to create pixel art! Follow my journey and help me improve!

Speaking of events (apologies for the double post):

We recently held a legendary spriting contest where we announced there would be one winner. However, given the number of excellent entries, I would like to extend this to at least two winners, potentially even three.

So, I'd love your feedback on the following:

a) Should the second-best entry also be distributed in the future, even though we initially stated there would only be one winner in the contest thread? (I assure you, it is of excellent quality)

b) If we consider having three winners, would you prefer to see the potential third winner revealed first and have the community vote on whether it should become an event? Or would you rather trust my judgment (I believe it's a great and high-quality event) and be surprised by its reveal?

new event?

The next Event will be ✨ magical ✨🐑

Thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes ❤️❤️

What's your favorite Hoenn 'mon?

New PR probs tomorrow, if I find the time

Have you already submitted your entry for our official Legendary Event Spriting Contest? 🎨

PokeHeroes' favorite Pokemon is Umbreon. Our least favorite Pokemon is Ferroseed, lol.
Your favorite Event Pokemon is Candaria, followed by Celestial Mew, Neptuneon and Jupiteon.

(Data based on the "Favorite Pokemon voting" I had announced in some of my most recent feeds. We achieved a total of almost 100,000 votes.)

Well, turns out the feature update I was working on requires a bit more work than anticipated 😅 I'm only halfway done.

So I've decided to reschedule my plans and first prioritise the event, and to continue to work on the feature update in a few days. And the next event will be: The return of the Fun Fair! ... With a new Event Pokemon.

Also, small clarification based on some comments on my previous feed: By "feature update" I don't mean that there'll be a new feature but an update to an existing one. A highly demanded update, that is...

Feature update next or new event? My schedule doesn't allow for both at the same time at the moment

What do you think is the favorite Pokemon of our community?

Ngl, "Pokemon Moon" sounds like a romhack and not a game that actually existed

What do you think will happen at today's Pokemon Presents?

Is your body ready for Zeraora?⚡

I've picked my online nickname "Riako" about 15 years ago. Back then, its sole meaning was "Totodile" in Korean.

But lately I've been receiving more and more Google notifications about people claiming "to be a Riako". Apparently, nowadays it means that you're in love with an idol/actor/anime character/... 😂❤️

I identify so much with the name "Riako" and it feels so weird reading the reddit post linked above 😂

Thanks for all the Valentine's cards ❤️❤️😘

When I adopt eggs from the Lab, I kinda like seeing the "egg's no longer there, someone was faster than you" message. It's wholesome to realise that somewhere out there, some other person in the world is also adopting eggs right now.
