Thanks. :) No, it's not all scratch. I took the runner from Ruby and gave him new clothes (drew them myself) and fixed up his glasses and hair and all. That's pretty much it.
If you want help with trainer sprites, I can't make my own from scratch, just like I can't make Pokemon from scratch, but I can fuse trainers together, give them new clothes, etc. So I can make it where trainers I make don't look anything like any of the current trainers (so they'll look like new trainers I guess), but I can't make them from scratch. If that's ok, then yes, I can help you with resizing and trainer sprites. Wow. That'll be cool to say some of my work is in a Pokemon game. :D lol But I guess that's normal for everyone here.
