Metapod + Gust of Wind
These are my two entries to @tcgnewdeckplus.bsky.social, a Pokemon TCG Gameboy Color mod! I've always loved this game (and soundtrack 😩👌) and have played many different versions of it. So cool to fire up the pixel art and make these buggies!
#pokemon #pixelart #pokemontcg
Pixel Art redraws of the "Metapod" and "Gust of Wind" cards for the Pokemon Trading Card Game on Gameboy Color. Metapod is set against a river background, and Gust of Wind shows Weedle in an exaggerated back bent pose, including huge eyes and an anime tear. The color palettes are shown beneath each illustration, all of which are in the foreground of a simplified version of the world map from the Pokemon TCG for Gameboy Color.

It is my birthday and there are a few things you can do here at this crossroads. There are burnt out candles in the mud below your feet, mixed with foil paper scraps and ribbons. Before you are three paths, extending far into the fields. It smells like frosting. You aren't sure what's going on.

PIGSquadders in a "streaming" setup play the The Night That Speaks on stage. They face forward towards a crowd, lit by orange lights and surrounded by jack o' lantern decorations, playing the game on a laptop in front of them. Behind them is a large projector screen which shows the audience what they're seeing while they play. The photo is from the PIGSquad Spooky Games Marathon 2019.
