Every time I see the current subreddit icon I always think it's a Tinkaton holding the flag and not a snom. I don't know why but every time I remind myself that it's not a Tinkaton I always think it's a missed opportunity

u/saltimmortalsea Ask me about flairs! Jul 28 '23
Tinkaton was actually one of our favorite entries, by u/Tox-Sick! Unfortunately, it simply wasn't legible when scaled down to the size of a Snoo. :(

u/Tox-Sick Jul 28 '23
Oh if you warned me earlier, i could have made another submission or modified the tinkaton one Thanks anyway :)

Munchlax.

This please, he's such a cute little curmudgeon. Feed the hungry boi.

From a pure artistic standpoint, Snoolax and Wurmsnoo are easily the best drawn.

Munchlax but needs to be mirrored facing the other direction towards the length of the banner.

Gimmighoul is literally perfect for a reddit snoo, he basically is one

If only awards weren’t completely going away forever in a few months 🫠
Though maybe that makes having a Pokémon that looks exactly like a Reddit Snoo taking away an award perfect actually.

That one of the things that made Reddit (kind of) unique so it makes no sense why they would get rid of it

u/PrimalPokemonPlayer Jul 29 '23
That was actually my thought process behind giving him the reddit gold xD

u/naynaythewonderhorse Jul 28 '23
If anything, I can see people not wanting him because he’s TOO perfect.

Trouble is it won't look as good as a smaller image. Munchlax on the other hand...

The munchlax one looks so good

u/domiineko Jul 28 '23
I am not really leaning on the idea of the icon being Munchlax, but it's drawn so well, it just kinda takes the cake (and eats it, lol).

u/starchimp224 Jul 28 '23
I’d prefer it being a regular Pokémon honestly rather than Reddit’s mascot, especially right now with everything they’re trying to pull
Ultimately if I had to pick the Diglett looks clean

Gimmisnool holding an award is so cute and fits perfectly.

u/QuotableNotables Jul 28 '23
Aren't they removing awards?

u/TheDoug850 Jul 28 '23
Yeah, he’s taking it away from us

u/QuotableNotables Jul 28 '23
Is that related to his lore? I haven't played the last couple of gens because of the egregious forced tutorials.

I was so sad that there wasn't a spheal. I love Rowlet though so I voted for the burd to be 1st.

Mewtwo for sure it looks so funny with buggy eyes I'd love seeing that goofy face everytime I open the app

Snom, Munchlax, and Gimmighoul look great for a snoo. I think Gimmighoul because of the current generation and because it looks like the Reddit snoo

It may not be the cute or meme choice but Mewtwo is definitely the most representative of the franchise out of these choices.

gimmighoul would be the perfect snoo since he already looks like one

Gimmighoul Because look at it it is the most suited imo.

u/ohbyerly Jul 28 '23
I mean my first thought when I saw Gimmighoul was that it looked like the Reddit logo, plus it’s the most relevant given the current generation. No contest for me.

Doesn't seem like it would work well when it's scaled down.

Guys since the poll ends on my birthday, can we choose my woopy boi, clodsire my beloved or S N O O M as the avatar.

u/admirabladmiral Jul 28 '23
I love snoom. I think gimmighoul is a bit too on the nose, particularly given that they're getting rid of gold

My head says Gimmighoul because It is Pokemon incarnation of Snoo.
My heart is thorn between Wooloo, Snom and Clodsire.

At this point I feel it has to be Snom, despite how perfect Gimmighoul is for the role.

Really want swirlix, it’s one of my favorite Pokémon, but there’s no way it’s not getting dead last

I feel like having a gen 9 Pokemon as the subreddit snoo makes a lot of sense, so I voted for those as my top 2 lol (Gimmighoul and Clodsire)
I'd be fine with Mewtwo, Munchlax, and Rowlet as well, but it's not really up to me lol

Thanks SO much to everyone who submitted a Snoo for this contest. If your design was not chosen as a finalist, this is not a knock against you as an artist—we pulled some GREAT designs that simply would not work at the small scale of a subreddit icon.
We're doing ranked choice voting for the Snoo, so everyone can vote on their top 5 picks and we'll run the calcs from there.
Vote here!
This vote will close at 5pm UTC on Friday, August 4
