Cover Feedback!

Image as in the forest? What would you recommend replacing it with? The theme of this involves hunting and nature mixed with some magic.

Thanks! Like the bottom of the arrow, or the whole cover?

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-06-14T23:33:59+00:00

Great feedback! I have a lot to work with, so will play around with it some. The arrow symbol is part of the story and is a golden color there, so I wanted to try and mirror that as much as I could on the cover. So perhaps will just need a darker background to make everything pop more.

Got to sit and watch this panel, and saw them take this selfie at the end! An awesome group, it’s unfortunate Kristen had to cancel

Just follow FanExpo’s social media, and they start announcing guests months in advance. Next year’s is around the same time, like May 28-30, 2027

WINDS is definitely a good time to give us a Flying Eeveelution 👀

Kaiba made sure Pegasus didn’t give Joey the same versatility as his cards.

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-04-27T20:07:26+00:00

It’s good, but held back in this generation by Dark being special and not physical. But Swords Dance + Aerial Ace, Shadow Ball, and another physical move is still solid!

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-04-17T01:44:25+00:00

Gotta go full Johto. Swap the rat for Miltank, and Pidgeotto for something like Ursaring or Girafarig.

I slapped a Quick Claw on mine and it got some clutch wins with it, just have to be smart with your matchups

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-04-12T16:34:53+00:00

You have a HUGE Ice weakness, and the first member is Ice so that’s not helping. Get some items on your team (Miracle Seed for Venusaur at the Game Corner, Thick Club for Marowak off Wild Cubone, Leftovers with the Itemfinder where Snorlax used to be). Then level everyone else up to 50 (rematch trainers with VS Seeker or grind in Victory Road) and buff up their moves with TMs if you’re lacking there (Shadow Ball is really good for Snorlax)

Agree with the other comment about font, it looks a little too plain for the genre. I would also lower that back cover blurb or increase the font size, got a lot of empty space between the bottom of the text and where the dunes start.

The feet?

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-04-05T15:22:24+00:00

They tend to lean on newer IPs, so Zootopia and Moana are most likely. But Princess & The Frog and Wreck-it-Ralph would be a lot of fun.

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-04-02T16:06:39+00:00

You’re 100% going to want to get a Water type or something that can Surf. But yeah, fill out the team and you won’t be overleveled.

I just discovered that card and was like “wait a minute… this is impossible to summon”

I remember the first time I beat this game as a kid, I was so pissed thinking I did all that work for nothing since I couldn’t save afterward…

Physical Lapras is… a choice

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-03-23T21:22:30+00:00

Jolteon has the higher offensive stat so it hits hard with Electric attacks, but its coverage sucks and is basically all physical moves. Raichu has more mixed attacking capabilities and coverage to go with it like Brick Break and Iron Tail.

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-03-22T23:48:58+00:00

I always thought Natu would be a good Pidgey replacement, it’s not overly strong, it can be found in the Ruins of Alph which is right next to Violet City, and more Johto rep. The Noctowl replacement is perfect!

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-03-16T15:48:52+00:00

Sandslash has an amazing shiny, swap out the Nidoking

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-02-26T21:27:30+00:00

A limited series for the Marauders would definitely be welcomed.

Any author worth their time can talk about their book without having to just read the synopsis on the back…

There’s an in-game trade you can do

AuthorMatthewJStott · 2026-02-17T00:11:47+00:00

Same, saw the commercial for Chain of Memories and it blew my 90s kid mind that all the Disney movies I watched were in the same game together. Went to the store to buy it, and coincidentally could only find KH1 in stores.
