Add new Alola Pokémon and forms #9

Closed msikma closed 7 years ago

msikma commented 7 years ago

It's that time again. There are 81 new Pokémon, and several new forms.

I'm not sure if there is good reference material yet. In previous versions I used animated GIFs of shiny Pokémon (made from screen recordings) which were extremely useful because the color fidelity of those images is very good. Photos of 3DS screens are not very usable for this purpose.

Hi, here are all animated sprites Pokémon 7G / Alola from Sun/Moon, even regular/shiny, exept for : Minior (shiny), and Zygarde 10%/50%/100% (regular/shiny), Type Null (shiny)

Thank you! Much appreciated!

msikma commented 7 years ago

Well, I've started, but it's going to take a while given how busy I am lately. I'll probably finish it in a week or so.

msikma commented 7 years ago

Minor update, I'm up to #790 Cosmoem. Haven't done any of the new Alola forms yet.

JuneTwooo commented 7 years ago

Good luck :3

As far as I can tell, I need to do 13 more Alola Pokémon, and 25 more Alola forms of existing Pokémon. Then I'm going to run a script to see if any icons have changed since ORAS.

Of course I won't have the item icons and other things, but I don't know if there's a dump for this available. Probably is, but I won't delay releasing the Pokémon icons for it. So I'll probably fix that later.

I've been using the PKHeX icons to work with, but I've found at least two errors in there while going through their archive. One of them is that a Pikachu form icon is missing (Hoenn). I also think some icons are updated, but they only added new ones to PKHeX (some minor details are different in the new Pikachu forms, so I assume the other ones are also changed).

So for that reason, I'll need a complete dump of all SuMo icons before I can really finish this. Going to look for it now, but I'm not sure where to find it, other than hanging out on Project Pokémon and asking for it.

msikma commented 7 years ago

Except for the missing ones I mentioned before, I'm pretty much done. Going to try and get the missing icons so I can release. As usual, please let me know if you see any errors or ways to improve them.

Nice work ! :3

msikma commented 7 years ago

I got full dumps of everything from SuMo now, so I can finish this project.

msikma commented 7 years ago

Some icons have undergone very minuscule changes. Here, let's play "spot the difference" (ORAS icons left, SuMo icons right):

Thanks to a script I wrote that compares images, I'm able to detect these and update the icons.

msikma commented 7 years ago

This is now done. Haven't made a new spritesheet image yet though, but I will do that tomorrow.
