Quote from ~Iridise~ RoyalGecko_QueenOfEvil and I were talking and both of us think that pokemon accessories outside of the beauty contest should be a thing, like accessories that could show up on a Pokemon's sprite. Perhaps the user would have to pay to put accessories on their pokemon, or they could be rare items? Anyways, just thought to suggest it.

Maybe this could be a new opportunity for spriting contests as well!


Quote from whyI'm going to use one of RoyalGecko's pokemon as example. She has her Roserade holding an item, the Galarica Wreath, which looks like a flower crown. I was originally going to sprite a Mega-Roserade, which was why the conversation came up. She'd like to have her Roserade be able to actually wear accessories, instead of just hold items that look like them and pretend that it's equipped.

If you are familiar with Chicken Smoothie, the site offers a level of customization on pets not available on Pokeheroes-- and while they've had years to grow a collection of common and rare accessories, I don't see why Pokeheroes can't have a smaller (at first) version of this, where the clothing/item overlays the sprite wherever the user decides to place it within a boundary.



Quote from howIt's almost like the Beauty Contest, but not quite. Instead of making entries for a competition, people would actually be customizing their favorite pokemon with possible backgrounds, items, and clothing. The current offered items are also kind of stale, EX: the five-hundred feathers that people place down to form whatever image they want in their entries (if you know what I mean). It's creative, but it gets boring after a while.

Perhaps customization items could be found all over the site (IE: at the fountain, earned in the Game Center, exchanged for at the Gem Trader, brought back from a Rumble Mission, etc.) and some might be rarer than others. I presume they will be in high demand when this feature is first implemented.

As for trading, just give them a sub-catagory like the Mystery Items have, and call them "Customizables" or something so that the item search can easily filter for them.

Actually applying these items may be similar to how you would apply them in the Beauty Contest, except with a smaller window and it would actually go onto a Pokemon's profile when clicked.

Support, it could be a very fun thing that the site could have. but maybe only certain pokemon can have the ability so the sprite staff isnt overworked

Suppport,this feature would add so much variety, Having certain Pokemon be able to wear accessories. I always wanted to have some of my pokemon to be customizable to make them feel and look special!
