I want to ask, I’m still not sure what a variant can be.
Like a normal Mareep but I turn it into something not based real?

@pws117

allow me to try and help you out a bit!
so, with an event the Pokemon is typically given some accessories/clothes, or a theme to follow.
for example, all of the current event Mareeps are themed around seasons, or the event Girafarig that's themed around a jester in colour scheme & dressed as such.

with a variant, it's all about how the Pokemon has adapted to a region and changed.
for example, with Hisuian Arcanine, due to the volcanic area it resides in, it turns a darker reddish-orange and its fur turns grey, likely to the smoke it's surrounded by. or, Hisuian Decidueye, who fights close quarters for its prey, hence why it has a sleeker form with bulkier legs. the extra layers of feathers it has allows it to insulate heat, keeping it warm in the typically cold area of Hisui.

tldr; a regional variant is a Pokemon that has adapted to the area it's in in parallel to where it's from. an event is a Pokemon that has a theme given to it without reason, sometimes given accessories.

@pws117 a real life example:



both are parrots. but they are regional variants because the way they lived changed their looks.

@Piloowthehydreigon

do you mean where you need to send it to be submitted?
if so, it's through PMs to CatLady. there is also a form on the front page that you need to follow.
hope that helps! if this isn't what you mean, feel free to let me know c:

@Piloowthehydreigon
Do you mean what Amuu has already answered or you do mean where the winners' choices will be shown. If it's that, it's also on the front page.

Quote from threaddue to Riako wanting to keep the sprites a secret as long as possible, the winners will only be revealed on the day their sprite will be released. This will cause some winners to know they've won earlier than others.

Oh another question too.

If the original form has a mega form, do i need to add 1 or is it optional?

Quote from CatLadyIf the pokémon has a mega form, you can include a mega form of the new variant.
You cannot just make a mega for a pokémon that doesn't have one. That would count as an event, not a variant.


hopefully this helps!

Title: Variant

Does this mean that it has to be an event of for example alolan dugtrio? or does it mmean i have to create an alolan form (example) for a pokemon that doesnt have one like emboar? or is it an emera form (like diancie) and if so, what does that mean?

@imbored it means you have to create a regional variant of, example an emboar. like a regional variant to make sense here in emera town, like emera diancie.

what we mean are answered here: one, two, three.
