30 Day Challenge: Who's That Pokemon




Day 23 of the challenge is here, and it's time to embrace the spooky season with my favorite Pokémon: Gengar!

Bringing Gengar to Life:

I've always been fascinated by Gengar's mischievous grin and playful demeanor. So, for today's pixel art, I wanted to capture its essence in a way that's both eerie and endearing.

Hypnotic Hues and Eerie Animation:

The animation is simple but effective. I added subtle movement to the hypnotic waves emanating from Gengar, representing its signature move, Hypnosis. The black mist-like particles also shift and swirl, creating a sense of unease and mystery. Gengar itself remains still, its wide grin and piercing red eyes fixed on the viewer, adding to the unsettling yet playful atmosphere.

Pixelated Nostalgia:

Creating this Gengar brought back fond memories of playing Pokémon games as a kid. There's something special about those classic pixelated sprites that still holds up today. I tried to capture that nostalgic feel while adding my own touch to the animation.

More Spooky Surprises to Come:

With Halloween just around the corner, I've got more tricks (and treats!) up my sleeve. Stay tuned for more pixel art creations that'll send shivers down your spine and put a smile on your face.
