Most of you know the complete ones, like Glazed, Light Platinum, Flora Sky etc.
Kanto Black is worth playing if you want to replay Kanto. Just has Gen V Pokemon, updated mechanics, and you don't need cut.

Continuing from last thread:
>>26502650
FAR easier
sprites are two frames for the back and front in Pt/HGSS
>>26502581
You import one, say the front sprite parts, then toggle on "sync". After that, you can import the other 3 sprites as long as "sync" is toggled on. What "sync" does is take the palette of the first image and point every pixel of the next 3 to the correct color.
Each pokemon has 20 files that are allocated to them indivually. This includes things like gender differences and shiny palettes. In order to replace a sprite, you must edit and replace al 20.
If you want to add an evolution like noivern, find the dex number of the pokemon you want to edit over, multiply by 20, and add one. This is the first file in the uncompressed folder corresponding to that pokemon. Do the same with the pokemon whose sprites you want to use, copy into a new folder, and rename them as the files you want to replace in order. After making sure that you have the file named correctly, replace the old ones with these.
If you want to add a shiny palette, you must recolor the first sprite you imported. I also suggest using a hue shifter to make sure the colors were uniformly changed. To import, toggle on "Shiny" and toggle off "Sync", importing the image over the currently distorted original. It should be the last step you do
Working on the regional Pokedex for my hack. What would be a reasonable number of Pokemon for a fairly large Region with the usual 8 gyms, but a lot of other towns and side areas?
Why is Masuda a living reaction image goldmine?

Haha, I don't know
His mouth is big
Any one here working on weird/interesting movesets for your eShop Gen 1 mons to be transferred to Gen 7? I see lots of talk about crazy old combos coming back, but not a lot of move sets that use both the old and new moves together.
Right now I'm just slapping pay day on everything for a fun/quick money grinding team.Discuss: No Guard Fissure won't happen cause transfer mons will never ever get their HAs
No guard isnt hidden on machamp
>>26558745
No Guard isn't a hidden ability. You're thinking of Steadfast.
water gun and pay day nidoqueen hell yeah
>mfw 'The Guy' proves himself, and his legitimacy, tomorrow when they release new SM info, confirming everything he said
>>26558718
Where was his thread again?
>>26558718
>implying The Guy isn't legitimate enough already
kys
>>26558748
It's archived, but I got the collage

How do you think she would celebrate it?

serena will get cucked and chicken chan will win the ash
>>26558444
>Litten
Why wasn't Bouffalant Lenora's ace?
because it would glorify black people too much
because that would be overpowered for the second badge
>>26558282
>Roserade
>Starmie
>Scyther
How so?
What do you think, /vp/?
stop making threads about this shit
>English typing
>mfw better than that ballio and owltair cringe
GSC or HG/SS?
>>26558003
Easily HGSS. It added so much more while keeping the original content, and making the game so much better. I'd go a step further and say that HGSS are the two best games in the series, and with Sacred Gold and Storm Silver, it gets even better. I prefer SS over HG, though, because I can get my favs Ursaring, Ninetales, Kabutops, and Swalot.
>>26558003
The only reason to play the originals is nostalgia
>>26558003
GSC. I don't like Gen 4's engine.
Fresh leaks:
Iggierip
He's normal ground and summons a bigger dog made of sand to fight for him. He also has "sand-bending" powers.
JoJo fags everywhere
>>26557904
No.
>>26557904
>fresh
>leaks
wrong on both counts faggot
>2 rivals
>The one that choses the starter with advantage is a cocky jerk who only uses strong-mons and starts tough, but gets progressively stupid and predictable.
>The one that has the disadvantage gets utterly beaten on the first fight, and gets determined to beat you, so they start having better and better strategy, setting hazards, using status, and giving items to their mons.
>big region, with explorable areas where you can find a lot of hidden mons (like how you have to go very deep in a cave to find lapras or Tyrogue in Johto) but for all the pseudos and some other. Think about scyther being very deep in the woods, larvitar in a cave or even a starter, no more 1% chance to appear shit, straight out having to find them with HM puzzles (not just pressing A to cut the tree or some rock).
>HM's are now learnt from getting a gym badge, and does not occupy a slot in the moveset of a pokemon.
>Now you choose your own order of gyms, the level of wild pokemon and the difficulty of a gym depends on the number of badges you have, rather than on the route/gym itself.
>keep the new:old pokemon ratio to 1:3, enough to find new pokemon on every route, but still getting to have a lot of old bros to people who don't like the new designs.
Introduce roughly:
>50 new pokemon
>50 cross-gen evos and prevos (mons like farfetch or chimecho need it without having to waste your mega slot), so literally you don't screw up for chosing a pokemon you like. and also prevos to pokemon that start out too strong (mostly about 10 or so prevos) like a Lapras prevo, or a Torkoal one.
>50 new megas, most to already evolved-weak pokemon, not just on some broken shit like legendaries and lucario-tiers. Give it to Butterfree, Raichu, Roserade, Liligant, etc.)
>a poison mythical (making it the 151th for balance sake)
continued:
Also:
>Serious nerfing to the base stats powercreep that are megas and primals, base status overhaul on all mons (it depresses me how useless primeape is literally an inferior version of mienshao).
>Water is now weak to poison and Ice, but inmune to burns.
Grass and ice are now resistant to fairy
Burning now only reduces the atk 1 stage, not 2.
More sound attacks.
More fairy attacks. (not just like 4).
>We get more entry hazards that aren't stealth rock, such as grass, fire, or ice, but now every entry hazard only lasts 3 switch ins.
>knock off goes down to 30 power
How much did I fix/ruin the series ?
>>26557829
im fine with everything but knock off
How is this game?
Top tier waifus/10.
It's my favourite of the non-main games. I really enjoy the battle system and it ha tonnes of replay value. I really wish we'd get a sequel.
Is this fire emblem?
what do you think they will announce in 10 hours?
>>26557697
Legendary names. If we're lucky, we'll get their types too.
Delayed Release to August 19th, 2017.
>>26557706
well fuck
Do female players love him?
I'm male and I do
>>26557657
Same.
No. Garyposters made me hate him.
Less than 12 hours remain until the new news hits. With such little time remaining now, discuss what you hope may appear tomorrow, post comfy/hype music to get everyone in the mood, and discuss any other matters Sun/Moon-wise you wish to whilst we wait.
>>26557593
>comfy thread
>horrible Eggman redesign to make you extremely uncomfortable
>YFW it's a 30 second trailer showing the legend names and the protagonist walking on 1-3 new locations, and that's it
i hope they reveal the relevance of the gems on the japanese logos
