Hello everyone, happy Sunday!

A new month is finally upon us, and with it a bunch of more tasteful goodies. First, I want to thank everyone for sticking through another month, and I hope you've continued to enjoy my work! I've begun developing/experimenting with some new techniques that you'll begin to see with Season 3, and I hope to begin more detailed explanations for those who want to try it themselves, especially if you're unfamiliar with things like the MaterialEditor, which is increasingly becoming such a helpful tool.

Second, I do want to apologize for the last few days being a bit shaky. This post was supposed to come out last night, but I've had some severe tooth pain that rendered me unconscious most of the day yesterday, so it had to be delayed. Fortunately, I will have it removed on Tuesday so it shouldn't be a problem after that, once I recover, of course.

Before we get into what's coming up this month, I do want to let everyone know of the new schedule, so to speak. Up until now I've pretty much released things "when ready", and tried to be consistent in release. But, oftentimes I'll push things out too fast, or too slow, or things end up getting funky. On top of that, as I've begun to pour more detail into each card, development time becomes increasingly longer.

To solve that, I've decided on having a set schedule - about 2 "release days" per week - Tuesday, Friday & Sunday.

Not counting this week (more on that later), Friday posts will be major release days, featuring large posts with at least a Trainer/Gym Leader, their iconic Moemon family, a Mega evolution, and potentially scenes. Tuesdays will be smaller release days, but you can still expect between 4 and 6 new Moemon. For example, next Tuesday will be Poochyena/Mightyena AND Zigzagoon/Linoone. Exceptions to this will be special releases. Sunday will be really small releases, such as Corsola, or Sunkern/Sunflora, Gen 2 Moemon that didn't make the cut before, or they may be used for crossover releases, or potentially Legendaries or other "extra" stuff.

Given the spread, it should be ample time in between releases for me to not rush things and keep up the quality.

Now let's talk about what's next!

What's Next?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm very happy to finally announce that Gardevoir and her family will be released this Friday, in leiu of a regularly scheduled Legendary (Gardevoir is Legendary enough, right?). I've already begun work on her and I can't wait to share them with you all.

Before that, however, there is some unfinished business we must take care of at Mt. Silver..

This scene will become available on Tuesday as well; it was made after this art piece of Mt. Silver:

Anyways. Champion Red will be re-released on Tuesday, as she's been long overdue for a rework. Alongside her will be the long-anticipated rework of the Charmander family (look, I WOULD have released it earlier, but I wasn't satisfied with it at the time!), PLUS there will be an additional, new Moemon that, while not 100% finished yet, is coming along quite nicely, so I hope you enjoy her - you can probably guess who it is, since she's quite.. Gigantic.

Finally - coming shortly after this post will be a Poll to determine which starter Moemon will be released first: Treecko, Torchic, or Mudkip (and their families). This will be up in another post, though, so we won't go into detail about it here.

That's all to cover for now - See you all Tuesday!
