12 New Wallpapers!?! GOLLY!

Hey! You! Check out the Wallpapers Page! After a super long time, it's finally been updated. There is a whopping 12 new wallpapers. Click on the button to the left to see for yourself!

Update (9-29-16) :There is now a fancy new header I made! This header has the new "Emolga's Place" logo I designed for the 5 year anniversary. 

Update:(7-040140417)
Oh never mind, it's been replaced by the WHAT Soda people now. 

Damn.

Emolga's Place HUGE 5th ANNIVERSARY POST! Including 80+ PAPERCRAFTS!

It's now been 5 years since Emolga's Place was started! The real date when it was started was late March, but unfortunately due to me being in Florida for a week and tons of homework for school, I had to postpone the celebration to today. Though it's certainly worth the wait!

So... I was digging through my computer files to find old relics from when EP was first started, and I found loads! I found very cringe-worthy drawings and doodles and I came across a TON of old papercraft templates as well. I just had to share them. I present to you....

80 Old Papercrafts! (Most of them were never even posted on Emolga's Place at all!)
Keep in mind, I was a lazy little child when I made these, so almost all of these templates have no glue tabs on them. You could either wing it and cut out tabs for yourself (It's not that hard) or use tape to make them instead of using glue. These papercrafts are from early 2011 to late 2012.

10 Most Favorite Video Game Songs! ♪♫

Today I thought I'd come and appreciate the glorious music that we can find within video games. These are some of my personal favorite tunes, in no particular order. Also, make sure to listen to the videos while reading this post. Enjoy!

The SMW Athletic theme is a great retake of the normal song you'd normally hear in that game. This plays in more upbeat levels and it really fits the feeling of running along and jumping from platform to platform. A true nostalgic classic!

Green Greens is a song that many people know and love. It's been featured many times in the Kirby Franchise as well as in Smash Brothers. It's no wonder why. It's the iconic tune that was the very first song of the series!

This high speed song really strengthens the chaotic feeling when zipping through the crazy slide in Super Mario 64. I personally think this theme is even better than the Bomb-Omb Battlefield track. It somewhat reminds me of rodeo music.

Megolovania may not be as classic as some of the other songs on this list, but it is just as memorable and catchy. The genocide mode ending feels really intense with this song to accompany the difficult battle with Sans. Toby Fox really did a good job with this song.

The Squid Sisters have really weird voices, yet they miraculously sound great to the ears! The instrumental in the background is truly awesome. This song makes Splatfest feel like a true celebration! By the way, Splatefest is today, as I'm posting this!

The Onett theme has a special place in my heart, and is one of the best songs in Earthbound. It's such a cute little tune that brings the small town of Onett to life.

Pokemon Heartgold is one of my favorite games, and it's the game that made Togetic become my favorite Pokemon! Nostalgic and catchy, this update to the classy 8-Bit Gameboy song really fits the fast pace of the bike.

Sonic the Hedgehog is a beloved and also infamous franchise about a bright blue hedgehog who just loves going fisht  fast! This is the song that started it all. It's almost as recognizable as the Super Mario Bros theme!

I love the game Dr. Mario and its catchy music. I play it on my 3DS all the time and I love playing as Dr. Mario in Smash Bros! Why would this not be one of my favorite video game tracks? Of course it is! Melee had an amazing soundtrack.

Welp, I hope you liked this list! I put a lot of thought into it. I'd like to thank Gilvasunner and BrawlBRSTMs3 for their high quality video game rips! I wouldn't be able to make this list without them.

Pokemon and Frog Origami Templates: Happy Leap Day February 29th 2016!

Happy Leap Day! I made a bunch of origami frog template thingies to print out and fold to celebrate this occasion because frogs leap and it is leap day...hahaha... why isn't anyone laughing
...Have you ever made an origami frog? It's actually really easy. That's why I decided to make a bunch of cool origami frog templates that you can print out and make. No tape or glue required, and the only thing that you have to cut with scissors is a rectangle! It's much easier to make than a papercraft. There's a short video below that briefly shows how to fold it. There are lines that indicate where to fold. Featured here are Mew, Pikachu, Bulbasuar, Froakie, Croagunk, Politoed, Seismitoad, Shaymin, Vulpix, Mother 3 Save Frog, Flipnote Frog, Slowpoke, Spheal and "Sonic OC"!

Ento Pokemon Sneak peek #2

This is the second Ento Pokemon sneak peek. Can you guess what these Pokemon are? They will be revealed soon.

[October 2017 Update: ]

HAHA, SOON? YEAH, RIGHT SUCKA! They never got officially revealed because I wasn't too proud of their designs, and never came up with good names for them. However, after over 3 years... here they are. Enjoy the anticlimactic reveal that you weren't waiting for.

Ento Pokedex: Turnib and Wheathid!

This post is the first-ever Ento Pokedex post! In these types of posts, I'll be revealing new Ento Pokemon and describing them in a Pokedex-sort-of-way. First up is Turnib:

Turnib: The Stem Pokemon
(Pronounced as "tur-nib")

Pokedex Info: Turnibs hide in bushes to protect themselves from harm.
Evolution: evolves into Radanshee at Level 14.
Origin of Design: Turnips and radishes



Wheathid: The Wheat Pokemon
(Pronounced as "whee-thid")

Pokedex Info: Wheathids often run around vast fields of wheat to feel rejuvenated.
Evolution: None
Origin of Design: Wheat and the dark events of the Dust Bowl

Ento Starters....in Minecraft!

I told you that I would post my Pokemon Minecraft creations, and here they are: Marsupine, Dimmil, and Foo.

Minecraft Creations: Mr. Saturn and Super Mario Question Block

I made some cool Minecraft stuffs and I thought I should show them to you :D

Question block: 

You can even go inside of it and find that a huge coin is hidden inside!

Mr. Saturn:

This creation was nothing really special. It only took me a few minutes to build. Tommorrow I'll post my pokemon creations I made on Minecraft.

Alex 17.... oof!

Shiny Spotlight: Super Dragons!

These three Pokemon all have fantastic shiny forms! Dratini and Dragonair are both pink with Dratini being a lighter pink and Dragonite is a green color with purple wings. I think Dragonite's old dark green color scheme is a little ugly, but it does look more like an actual dragon. Shiny Dragonite in X and Y has a lighter green color than past generations and it looks more sleek.

~Thanks to Serebii for these shiny sprites~

Time to Draw: Ness and Mr. Saturn!

I felt bad for not doing a Time to Draw last week, so I'm going to do one today. I actually used pencils and paper to make this drawing instead of using GIMP. Drumroll please.....

It's a little sloppy, but it came out nice. I took this picture of the drawing with an iPad so the lighting is a little off. What do you think? Does it look goooooood?

Neuo Papercraft!

For the first time ever, there is an Ento Pokemon papercraft! Neuo is definitely one of my favorite Ento Pokemon, and one of the first that I created. Today actually happens to be the 1-year Anniversary of when I created Neuo! Pretty cool, right?

Click here for the Neuo Papercraft! (It also includes the shiny version)

Super Smash Bros: How would Togetic work?

My favorite Pokemon is Togetic, and I think it'd be awesome to play as him in the new Smash Bros Games. While it's incredibly unlikely for him to actually be playable, I wondered how he would play and what his move set would be. I came up with some ideas.

Down Special: Roost

Togetic can use Roost one time for every match. It cuts the damage count by half.

Up Special/Recovery Move: Steel Wing

Togetic can use Steel Wing to boost upwards or attack foes. Togetic can normally fly, similar to how Pit can.

Side Special: Psyshock

This attack can be charged, like Lucario's aura attack. When it is fully charged, it stuns foes and doesn't do damage. It does damage if it isn't charged fully.

Neutral Special: Swift

Togetic attacks with stars that shoot out very quickly. It doesn't do a lot of damage, but is a very fast and spammy attack.

Smash Attacks:

Togetic attacks with Brickbreak, Zen Headbutt, Body Slam, and Focus Punch.

Final Smash: Dazzling Gleam

Togetic attacks with an amazing beam that is practically unavoidable. It is almost the same final smash that Samus has, but it has less range and is smaller.

Shiny Spotlight: Ento Starters!

You might have been wondering if the Ento Pokemon that I create ever have shiny forms. The answer is yes! If you carefully read the "Electric Critters" post, you may have noticed that I even included a shiny Neuo. Today, I'm highlighting the shiny forms of the Ento starters: Marsupine, Dimmil, and Foo.

All of these shiny forms had some sort of inspiration on why I colored them that way. The mystical amazon river dolphin's pink color was inspiration for shiny Dimmil to be pink. Marsupine's shiny colors represent autumn while his regular form represents summer and spring. Foo is based on the red panda, so I thought it would be cool to make shiny Foo actually the color red. Well... it's very close to red.

That's all for today's Shiny Spotlight! There will be more Ento Spotlights in the future. Maybe even for next week ;)  Also, there will be no Time to Draw this week. The drawings found on recent posts is the closest that you'll get to "Time to Draw" this week.

Alex 17... Foo!

Oh Happy Easter

~ If you celebrate Easter, I hope you had a great Easter on Sunday  :D  ~ 

Let me tell you why I haven't been doing anything lately:

-I had to visit family for the whole day during Easter

-I'm kinda tired because I'm back at school now...so I haven't really felt like posting.

-I'm too busy saying "foooooooooooooo"

I'm going to be posting what I missed this week sometime over the next few days. Sorry all this!

Alex 17...firin' muh lazah!

Sean says that there needs to be more Emolga so here ya go

Super Smash Bros Returning Characters Predictions!

This is my second post today! YAY! Normally I don't post two times in a day, but with being behind on many things I need to do, I am today.

Today I'll be discussing the new Super Smash Bros games coming out for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U! I'm really excited for this game, and you should be too.

Mwahahaha

Everyone is talking about the character roster. Which characters will return? Who will the newcomers be? How much total characters will there be? How much newcomers will there be? There are lots of irritating questions about it.

What I'm most curious about is which playable characters will return. These are all the characters that have not yet been confirmed to return in the new games:

Ness, Jigglypuff, and Captain Falcon are definitely returning. They are "veterans" and have been around for the whole Smash Bros series. They have to return.

I think that Wolf, ROB and Snake are not going to return. Wolf is not a very good character overall, and I don't really think Star Fox should have three characters representing the series. There is not much Star Fox games and there hasn't been any new ones recently. ROB might not return because he's more of an accessory/toy than a game character and he is not a very popular character. Snake is very likely to not return. Supposedly he was only put in Brawl as a favor to someone who works on the Metal Gear Solid games, and Snake is also third party. He doesn't even belong in the Super Smash Bros games. Lucas might not return as he is not much different than Ness. Falco is very likely to return as a playable character because he is very popular among players.

That's all the Smash Bros I'll be covering for now! Buh-bye.

Time to Draw: Marsupine!

Marsupine is the Grass-type starter of the Ento Region. It is a Pokemon that I, myself, created. Today is Marsupine's time to shine, and he is the main focus of this Time to Draw.

For this week's Time to Draw, I'm not posting a Speedpaint. Instead, I am simply posting a picture. Here it is:

It's Marsupine! I tried drawing it in a somewhat-anime style. It looks okay. You may notice that I was actually creative with the background this time instead of doing a color smoke pattern!

Alex 17... tired.

Zzzzzzzzzzz

Shiny Spotlight and Buneary Papercraft!

Today I'll be doing Shiny Spotlight and a papercraft in one post. This post is all about Buneary! Let's start off with the Shiny Spotlight.

Shiny Buneary looks like cotton candy! The inner ear and nose color is grey instead of pink and the body color is a slightly-dull brown. Shiny Lopunny has the same color palette as Buneary does.

You can even make a shiny Buneary of your own! The Buneary papercraft is ready to construct, so click a link below to get started! If you're having troubles with printing or making papercrafts. you should go to the Papercraft Help Page.

Thanks to Serebii for the sprites!

Neuo Wallpaper Speedpaint!

I don't really feel like writing a lot...exhausted from.....drawing........foooooooo.....
Zzzzzzzzzzz



-The wallpaper is in the style of the Foo Wallpaper.

-It features Neuo instead of Foo.

-The music is a Bomb-omb Battlefield remix from this video.
-No Marsupine (What a plot twist!)
-I forgot to originally put the purple cheek patterns on Neuo, so that part wasn't filmed.

-If you read this sentence you will explode

Boom

Smash Bros News! :D

You might have heard..two new Smash Bros games are coming out this year, with the 3DS version coming out this summer and the Wii U version coming out this December. Both games feature the same roster of characters, but different stages for each version. I'm really looking forward to playing these games! :D

Today, some important details were revealed about the games in a Nintendo Direct. Charizard returns as a playable character, but his trainer seems to be absent this time arounf. It is unknown if Squirtle or Ivysaur will return. Most likely not. Charizard can even Mega-evolve, as so can Lucario. It's very likely that these will be their final smashes--it's not yet confirmed.

The new playable character is.... GRENINJA! Thanks to Serebii for this image!

I'm just as shocked as you are. I was thinking that Tom Nook might be a playable character, but I was wrong. Tom Nook is simply part of the Villager's final smash. :(

If you want to know more, check out the official website or watch the Nintendo Direct!

Shiny Spotlight: Spectacular Pokemon!

I know that A LOT of people like Barboach and Whiscash (Especially Barboach), so I decided that I would be doing them for Shiny Spotlight this week. These two Pokemon have great shiny forms.

Shiny Barboach and Whiscash are both very recognizable. Barboach looks a bit more appealing than Whishcash, with its bright-yellow color. Whishcash has a pink color replace the yellow that it has in its regular form. Shiny Barboach is cool. You should catch one now. Do it. Now. Come on. I'm waiting... Why aren't you listening to meeeeeee

Well.. that's all, folks. Look forward to Thursday, along with a Speedpaint that day.

Alex 17... out!
