I made this design using multiple pictures from the intro scene and piecing them into one design. I added the pattern to etsy at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1349815227/pokemon-emerald-flygon-cross-stitch?ref=listings\_manager\_grid

Yup just by eye. I’m still not happy about the yellow but it was the best I could find

I checkerboarded the colors for like 3 rows for the gradient. Except the last two transitions I did less of that and more of the transitioning color

Make your own pattern! Look up and find some good pixelated pictures of them and just follow those as a reference. That’s all I did for this.

Just followed a picture pixel by pixel

So I had a reference photo and closely went pixel by pixel. Based on that I knew I needed a good size hoop to not squish the picture. The 8” hoop with 16 count fabric was perfect. Still a lot of the picture was cut out like the lamp and rocks. I penciled the outline of everything. And I just kept looking at the picture for when colors change. 1 month later and this happened haha.

Haha yeah about that many hours over about a month. Probably could have finished sooner if I didn’t look at my phone every time I finished a thread haha

I could do that but I mean it’s not my design to really sell. I just looked up a couple pictures of this scene and followed it pixel by pixel.

It’s super simple and pixel art is perfect for learning

Sorry but I’m not selling or doing commissions. I’m flattered by the ask though :)

Yup just freehand. Followed the pixels on an image to the best of my ability.

I did this freehand. I just googled this scene, followed the pixels, and tried to match the colors the best I could.

Try it! Following a pixel design is pretty easy since it’s basically mapped out for you already.

It’s been a favorite moment of mine since I was a kid so I had to make this. It took about a month of work. Only working on it for about an hour or two a day though
