>>58262795>1. Do not expect anyone to care about them unless you actually make a story for them.big agree here, i like to see OCs at least have some written fics no matter how shit so you have some real context to them
gives way more depth to them, but a bunch of drawings where they are doing stuff can also work if well done, like asks (although to a significatively weaker extent)
>2. Don't make them the mostest special boy.agreed only when it's extreme, i do like pokemon OCs that have unique stuff to them but not too overboard, specially if there's also some drawback to them instead of them just being superior
applies aesthetically as well, i like it when people play with the potential possibilities of variance for pokemon species but sometimes people take it way too far and it just starts being gaudy
>3. Even if you do everything right, accept that people are still going to call you a faggotshould be common sense but i guess some people need you to spell it out for them
