yup its happened before^^
Nice! very nice
Possibly the only epic pokemon fight ever! I loved the lightning!
Some questions...
I love the comedic touch at the very end, and the audio mixing was superb.
Some quick questions that'll help me improve:
The light show effects that you used, especially for moves such as Onix's hyper beam, were those originally done as just a sliding batch of shapes that got turned into a movie clip--and then had a glow filter attached to it after you knocked out the base image?
Also, there was a lot of blurs used in this but the final size of the animation was less than two megs and there was virtually no lag. Did you keep in mind anything to intentionally minimize lag--or was a fluke?
For fight scenes like this, did you add the sfx before, during, or after the animating process?
I appreciate the help in advance!
SunnyRays responds:
ok well for the hyper beam effect you hit it dead on (I kinda discovered that by surprise)
as for the blurs, I don't think they actually would take that much memory because I assume flash player just needs to recognize it as a blur and its properties...but I did do save and compress...it was only 456kb without the sounds, the lag issue is well generally depends on your comp and graphics card, I did find that you need to get the right balance of different blur qualities and amounts to reduce lag and make it look good...
anyways as for sound effects...I am noob at it, for now I just make the movie first then add sfx, but sometimes I find it to be better if I add sfx first (eg talking scenes) I'd love to learn how professional animators do it
well hope that answers your questions
also keep in mind I pretty much didn't do any prior planning for this
like an idea popped into my head the night before, and the next day I just animate
off the top of my head, then at the end of the day (15 hours later) I submit...so I wasn't sure if this was all the most practical ways to do everything but I did gain some more experience and hope the next movie will be even better
cheers
Animation Style -Beautifully Executed
The screen dynamics was perfect. Never have I seen such elegant execution in the screen dynamics in this movie. The art could've been improved and the sound was crappy, but the animation more than made up for it.
Good show.

Stunning
I'm no Pokemon fan and I only clicked this out of curiosity - seeing as I thought that the whole Pokemon fad was dead and that this would have to be really good to get a high score... And it was!
The movement of the stone creature snake-thing was just tremendously well done, and the various effects you applied was stunning. Did you make it all by yourself? I didn't even know you could utilize Flash like this... Stunning.
I'm not really a flash-artist, so I don't know much about the various techniques... Was this traced or rotoscoped or something like that? Or did you just not bother to make the ending as neat as the rest of it? Because if you compare the ending with the rest of the flash, it's really out of context artwork-wise.
Anywho, it looks very good indeed. I could do without the ending, but I don't know... Or maybe spice the humour up a bit there.
SunnyRays responds:
it's all done in flash, I just did a bit of thinking about how to make it look 3d and stuff
and the movements were just whatever I could think of yesterday
