🪲 Hello everybody, I am Daniel and I make [stuff]!

The specifics of that statement vary from year to year, but currently, my [stuff] is the #OrichalchumCup, a prototype miniature tabletop game with card game elements. 🎲

I love talking shop, so reach out! ⚒️👨‍🔧✂️

For older stuff, check this thread🧵

An image of a wyvern spreading its wings and blowing fire, seen from the back in birds eye view. It is colored in shades of orange and yellow with shadows in blue and purple.
There is a large explosion in the center of the image, with smoke and debris flying out in all directions.
Behind the explosion, 3 characters can be faintly seen, likely fighting off the wyvern.

The drawing is done in a cartoon style with simple lines and shapes. The colors are bright and vibrant. The image is full of energy and movement.

A bright green wyvern with orange wings and a metallic cyborg head. The Beast is chained to the ground, and he is roaring at a bystander.
It is drawn in a cartoon style with simple lines and shapes.

A photo of 3 character cards from a tabletop game. They are laid out horizontally across a pencil case.

Each card features a cartoon character, a title, a description and a set of Statistics.
The characters are drawn in a stylized manner with exaggerated features and bright colors.

The pencil case shows 12 colored pencils available for the drawing.

A photo of a 3D printed wyvern standing on 3 hexagon tiles. It's low quality suggest it's a test print.
It is missing a lot of features seen in the drawings, such as teeth and definition on the body.
It is standing on a blue cutting mat.

...We've had some lovely reviews and I'm super excited for folks to be able to add it to their collections!

Big thanks to @redartgames.bsky.social & @whitethorngames.bsky.social for making it happen 💙

Some review quotes for Mythwrecked on top of the game's key art. They range from 4.5/5, 9/10 and even 10/10 in some cases. Each review comes with a quote from each publication saying what they enjoyed about the game.

A server buddy gave me some eggs with near perfect IVs for some of these buggers!
The last big hurdle is time for levels and EVs

The level cap is set to 40 since it's the first tourney, so Volcarona is up next once we raise the level ;)

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

Ninjask is purely for stat boosting and batton passing to Scolipede or Chestnaught. Yanmega would be a spattikker with this spread.

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

The Pheromosa I caught the other day will be a fine addition once I'm allowed to use Ultra Beasts.

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

Here is the plan.
There is no way I can achieve all of this in the... 3 hours of game time I have left, but I am here to have fun and I will attempt to assemble it as closely as possible!

And then I'll start making an IV/EV farm for perfect bugs for future fights.

Yeah I'm still on the lookout for Wimpod and Scyther, they have a low spawn rate in Cobblemon.
I really hope to find one before they start doing Mega events haha!
But by then they'll probably have counters ready when they realize I'm the Bug Trainer on the server 🪲

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

Just found out about Yanmega's absolute stats.
What a beast.

I also have to bring my starter, which is Chesnaught.
Batton Pass Ninjask to hopefully increase the speed and a subsequent stat.
Scolipede wide range attacker,
Araquanid with sticky web / defense
Lokix for sneaky punches / prio moves?

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

Great intel!
A lot of my picks as well. I am also debating Ninjask as a Batton Passer to raise speed, attack or EVA for a turn before switching over to an Attacker or Defender, depending on the matchup.

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

I think so?
I've been browsing Smogon a bit and I think I can glass Cannon it, but I would have loved Double Battles for a wider strategy haha

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

So I'm down for any advice!

I got a small tourney in Cobblemon tomorrow and I was unable to find a Wimpod or Scyther.
So I'm pretty sad.

Daniel Knightley - Pixel Stitch Commissions @danielknightley.bsky.social · 1d

Pokemon fans, I have limited time and limited resources to prep with.
What is the most annoying, or maybe even viable, Bug type Pokemon team I can assemble?

* No Gimmicks (mega, tera, etc)
* No legendary
* 1v1 fights so no team combos.

There's a reason they killed support for win 10 this week, to force everyone onto 11.
And then they can claim it's because people want AI, because it's such a best seller!

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

Most companies already stated that's it an option because that's all 20 years out fashion at least.
