The Pokemon Company is delivering new pins showing fan-most loved Pokemon in one of their most normal structures. Recently, The Pokemon Company dispatched another line of pins highlighting Pokemon in their pixelated symbol structures. The internet based Pokemon Center site right now has sets containing the Kanto Starter Pokemon and their advancements, alongside a set containing Pikachu and Raichu. The new “Pixel Pins” highlight the Pokemon in their “unique structure” complete with splendid metal support. Each pin is roughly 1 and 3/4 creeps across, making them the ideal size for a coat, rucksack, or cord. You can look at the pins beneath:
The new pins utilize the pixel workmanship that stays a notorious piece of the Pokemon establishment. While the primary Pokemon games utilized a set number of menu sprites to address different Pokemon, Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire were the principal games to utilize individual sprites to address Pokemon of a particular animal groups. Indeed, even as the games changed from utilizing pixel workmanship in fights to more point by point enlivened sprites (that in the end moved to 3D models), the games kept on utilizing pixel symbols in different menus and boxes. Indeed, even the latest games, Pokemon Sword and Shield, utilize similar pixel symbols as those found in the pixel pins.
The Pokemon establishment is equipping to praise its 25th commemoration, which starts off toward the finish of this current month. The festival will incorporate huge loads of new product, alongside an assortment of shock coordinated efforts, new games, and other enormous declarations. The Pokemon Company has effectively reported a melodic joint effort with pop star Katy Perry called P25 Music, just as another McDonald’s advancement, and a line of Levi’s clothing. The establishment additionally has a few new games coming out – New Pokemon Snap is set to make a big appearance in April, and Pokemon UNITE will be delivered not long from now. More declarations are additionally expected, including another pair of Pokemon games that are broadly expected to be changes of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl.
To know what Pixel Art is, we need to understand and come to its concept through two things: Pixel and Art.

Pixel
Pixel – abbreviated and combined by the phrase Picture Element – is called a pixel. Pixel is the smallest physical unit for displaying color on a screen, to build a digital image. A pixel unit on the screen will be assigned a color by the computer (4 values Red, Green Blue and Gray), and the image can only be constructed by a combination of many pixel units on the screen. picture together.
If clusters of numbers like 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 or 1920 x 1200 sound familiar to you, it’s the resolution of the screen, or in other words the number of pixels in length and width. width of that screen.
This example shows an image with a part in it that is zoomed in many times, thereby showing the pixels.
With today’s popular standard, each physical pixel unit will have a square on the screen. However, on some screens on older systems, such as the Atari 2600 or Commodore 64, a pixel unit represents a rectangle that is longer horizontally than vertically (also known as fat pixels).

Art
The mosaic at Pompeii named ‘Cave Canem’ (Beware the dog,) 1st century AD
In theory, pixel art is only widely recognized in the digital age. However, the basic art method of pixel art has been practiced since centuries BC. Paintings of this era are known as mosaics, with the first being found in Mesopotamia, and were increasingly popular and popular with the ancient Greeks from the 4th century BC.
Tapestries first appeared in the 3rd century BC, and were products of Hellenistic Greece. As shown below is part of Europe’s oldest known tapestries – the Överhogdal – dating between 800 AD and 1100 AD, during the Viking period.
Partial embroidery of verhogdal – born sometime between AD 800 and AD 1100
The time when the first cross-stitch technique appeared was in the 2nd century BC.
From the 15th century AD, Wampum belts were born in the eastern forest tribes of North America. Paintings made from strings of conch shells were given as gifts or to signify power, and were later used by Europeans as a form of currency.
Around 1875, furniture in the United States used decorative techniques very close to modern pixel art.
Around 1886, with the emergence of Neo-Impressionism started by Georges Seurat, techniques such as Pointilist or Divisionist were born In the technique of Pointilist, developed by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, the picture is made up of colored dots connected on canvas. With pixel art, it’s almost just a replacement of dots with squares on the screen.
In 1910, a picture was made by a large number of students at UC Berkeley during a football game in front of Stanford University, with each student holding a board that, in 1922, also with the same technique. In this case, students at the University of California, Santa Cruz created a moving picture using both sides of a palette.
In 1929, the word pixel was born in the books of H. Horton Sheldon and Edgar Norman Grisewood, and was used in research by researcher Alfred N. Goldsmith.
In 1962, a pegboard, a children’s toy that uses small pieces of colored plastic to form pictures, was patented, and the toy is still popular today.
Pixel Art
Pixel art was born out of the limited computer memory at the time. For example, the 8-bit NES (or we still call it 4-button electronics) imposes a lot of limitations: artists can only choose colors on a palette of 54 colors. And on the same screen, only 25 colors can be displayed at a time (one background color, 4 3 color bars for the environment, and 4 3 color bars for the sprites). The default size of sprites is only 8×8 pixels or 8×16 pixels, and the screen resolution is only 256×240 pixels.
Although with the continuous development of technology, computers can now process up to millions of colors at once, pixel art still exists quite strongly as a separate fine art. It is the most ‘sharp’ and ‘crispy’ art you can see on a computer screen. Because of its very economical use of color, pixel art is still trusted to optimize graphics for handheld game consoles, making it easier to do bulk animations, and is also used to make GUI icons easier to read in modern programs and websites.
Like the low-level programming language C/C++, the effort required by the pixel art artist is proportional to the screen’s resolution and the size of the picture. However, in return, the pixel art artist also holds control of the picture on a pixel level, deeper than other types of digital art. Also, while it’s not an ‘easy’ art form by itself, it’s still quite popular with newbies because of its accessibility: all you need is an image editing program. as simple as MS Paint, and making pixel art is almost like playing with Lego pieces.
Also because of the existing limitations of pixel art or at least so far the difficulty of making a quality pixel picture, the process of making pixel art through that is also almost a problem solving process. problem solving for the artist. A good painter looks at the screen like a mosaic, while the less good painter looks at the screen like a stone with only a kitchen knife in his hand to carve the image.
For example, in Mighty Final Fight (pictured left), Guy’s eyes are drawn with the specific purpose of creating an illusion . By calculating groups of pixels (black, white, yellow orange) together and observing their relationship, more complex shapes and blocks are implied , rather than shown. out specifically , because space does not allow . The use of skin color (yellow-orange) underneath the eyelashes and pupils even implies other colors.
The pixels in Mighty Final Fight contain real information. The proof is that if you extrapolate to a higher resolution based on the information included in the original, you will find that we still get a large amount of detail. In contrast, with the same number of pixels, but with the Rambo side , the amount of detail we get when extrapolating is almost non-existent.
Another example. In the early 80s, IBM computers could only show a total of four colors in a picture (black, white, cyan, and magenta). As mentioned above, since each pixel can only represent exactly one color at a time, tinting is not possible. Therefore, the pixel artists came up with that option, the checkerboard. Just like on a chessboard with staggered black and white squares, here people also “mix” colors by staggeredly placing pixels of two different colors, and if the human eye glances at it, it will feel it. those two colors are almost blended together. This is also another illusion technique of pixel art, which people still call dithering. Although this technique was born as a temporary solution to the problem of color limitation and tinting, and today with modern technology,thisdithering technique and make it a fine art technique, rather than a pure technique. This technique will be explained in depth and in detail in the following section.
What future for Pixel Art?
Pixel Art is an art that has been a bit old, because most of the members of the pixel art community are artists over 30. That’s why the pixel art community is generally quite mature, so There are few scandals like the younger digital artist communities. However, in 2015 there was a rather ‘shocking’ incident that happened, because it touched on that million difficult question to answer, which is ‘what future for pixel art?’, and caused a lot of problems. different positive and negative responses.
Derived from an article by artist Blake Reynolds of Dinofarm Games, titled A Pixel Artist Abandoning Pixel Art . There, Blake makes it clear that he and the studio are both the most loyal fans of the art genre, and goes through a breakdown of its subtle details and techniques that I encourage you to read, but ended up coming to the conclusion that Auro would be their last game to use pixel art as the graphics. Blake’s arguments are the following (interpreted as I understand them; Blake responded to feedback that he’s not a good writer, so the article ‘may’ be a bit misleading):
HD (High Definition) ambition for graphic artists has existed for a long time— Pixel art was born not as a stylistic choice, but as a a tool for artists at the time that could achieve the most spectacular visual effects possible, with very limited hardware performance In other words, the artists of the 80s and 90s or so The whole early 2000s chose pixel art not because they liked it, but because it was the only option they had to be able to make the most impressive graphics without sacrificing anything else.
“Nice, but it looks a bit pixelated …”— most users who respond to this art style use the word ‘pixelated’ in a somewhat ‘offensive’ sense. This is because users are multifaceted. the part doesn’t know and doesn’t care what your art style is. As long as it doesn’t look ‘finished’, has rough spots and jagged edges, it’s bad. And this is not their fault, but the artist’s. The fault of the artist is that he has failed to convey the graphic language they want to convey to the user, making them feel difficult to understand, thereby unable to truly appreciate the value in the choice. Choose your art style.
If artists in the past used pixel art as a way to receive media, then by using pixel art on a retina phone screen, the artist did not realize acceptance of the nature of this new artistic medium . Because for pixel art, the top priority is always to keep the pure sharpness and ‘crunchy’ of the pixels. Since mobile phones have a wide variety of screens with different sizes and shapes, there is a very high chance that pixel art will shrink or stretch, thereby losing its characteristic beauty.
Of course, this decision of Blake and Dinofarm has received a lot of not-so-positive reactions from the pixel art community. Here are some of the counter-arguments that, in my opinion, are the most weighty and reasonable responses:
Why do artists today still use canvas and oil paint?Oil paint is very difficult to use and very difficult to master, and once on the canvas you have to decide whether to live with it, or go back and redo the whole painting. You can achieve a lot more detail if you draw on your computer with Photoshop, and you can also save a lot of time with Ctrl + Z to Undo! Yet people still choose to learn oil painting as a true and serious art. Likewise, pixel art continues to exist and develop to this day as a fine art, its own art. Because even though the technical limitations that helped pixel art to take the throne in the past have been completely removed, pixel art itself still helps artists convey visual experiences and artistic emotions. very special of its own. Pixel art is an option, for artists who are already interested in or familiar with a particular type of art, a particular workflow, and a particular connection to the work they normally do. Even in modern animation, there are still products created from hand-drawn paintings on paper like Studio Ghibli films, or with quite old stop-motion technology like in Kubo & The Two Strings. Because, at the end of the day, will an oil painter give up the brush, or will a sculptor give up his craft, simply because Photoshop or ZBrush exist? I don’t believe so. or by quite old stop-motion technology like in Kubo & The Two Strings. Because, at the end of the day, will an oil painter give up the brush, or will a sculptor give up his craft, simply because Photoshop or ZBrush exist?

Because, at the end of the day, will an oil painter give up the brush, or will a sculptor give up his craft, simply because Photoshop or ZBrush exist? I don’t believe so.
If the problem raised by Blake and Dinofarm here is a matter of public reception or, to put it bluntly, sales and profits , the story is different, and we need an analysis and dissect many aspects. It would be unfair to blame the financial failure of a game product on its graphics.
Pixel art and Mobile are almost impossible to cooperate if you want to keep the quality and purity of either . Which means now it’s a matter of what you prioritize, and what you’re willing to sacrifice. This is a story of two things that don’t match, not who is more modern and who is more ancient than the other.
You can read more responses that go into more technical details (which I won’t include here for the sake of the article) at this and this link .
The question of the future viability of Pixel art, or of many other art forms ever since, has always been an open question that is difficult to answer. Everyone has their own opinion and point of view, and only time can tell. However, as I observe now, people who are feeling that pixel art is gradually losing its place in creative and artistic projects, they have switched to another form. Those who still love and believe in the future of pixel art are still searching day and night and opening up new horizons where only pixel art is an effective medium of art transmission. most fruitful. And one such person, for me, is Simon ‘Snake’ Andersen by D-Pad Studio (in part 4 of this series, rest assured that we’ll dive into his art analysis.)
And you, what do you think about the future of Pixel art?
