[Sprite] Custom Sprites

[TheTainted_Wisdom]

(Note: more sprites on the next page, this forum has a 5 attachment per page limit. Also, front sprites can't be left-clicked on to view the original size of the image because it's already 80x80 pixels)

I wanted to share my Day of the Dead Ekans line of sprites but didn't want to go posting a long-assed bunch of sprites in Discord again. And just for Shiggles, if it were a Mystery Gift Pokemon I'd name it MasYMenos after the twin-headed snake from The Book of Life, with the OT being Xibalba who was the wielder of the staff that the snake turned into. I also would give it:
Petal Dance (because of all the flower patterns and because Marigolds are a big part of the Day of the Dead)
Mystical Fire (because I wasn't able to include candles which are also a big part of the Day of the Dead)
Disable/Seed Bomb (Because Disable isn't in the game yet and Seeds are another Day of the Dead staple)
And Poison Tail because it's also not in the game yet.

The hats worn by all the evolution forms are a reference to the antagonist of Guacamelee, Carlos Calaca, who also wore a black hat with hanging black beads.

In the event that you (like I did about a week ago) reading this have no clue how to edit/replace sprites in the game, you can check out this video. It's not the best, but it certainly was enough for me to figure out how it works at least:

Just be sure to make copies of the original sprites in case you ever want to change them back. And of course, feel free to use these if you feel like having something spooky.

You can also use the name of the mon in all caps that you're looking to replace the sprite of rather than using dex numbers. (For example: NEOPUNKb, VOLTASUfsb, etc.) I can confirm that this works, however, I was also told that files using the names instead of the dex numbers will not be overwritten the next time you download an update or run the patcher in case you prefer a modified sprite to an official one (However, I have not tested that).

Two other things to note: 1) In order for the Fortog sprites to register properly you have to spell it "FARTOG", and no, I'm not kidding.
and 2) Using names instead of dex numbers to replace Pokemon icons will work in all instances (that I know of) except for when viewing their icons in the Pokedex, you have to highlight the pokemon in question in order for them to appear.
