Hey, I been trying to get a picture of Piplup to replace Bulbasaur on Unlz GBA. I saved the Bulbasaur picture, and I did not put the Piplup picture on the saved file of the Bulbasaur picture as it makes its colour go green.



So I added Piplups picture from a differant file onto Bulbasaurs place and it goes like this.



Explained to the best of my ability.

Emerald has animations too so you have to find the animations (somewhere at 600) put the palette of the pokémon you want and export it. Then put the sprites on the image and insert it back.

Use Irfan View to index your sprites.

The same way you edit the Pokémon sprites in this tutorial.

could someone index the back and front sprites of all the diamond and pearl starters except for turtwig? i dont know how really... I am using a program called Ultimate Paint..

(I'm using a Fire Red rom)

I find the Pokemon image, replace it with an idexed image with the same dimensions, write the rom and point the offset to empty space. Nothing happens and I have the same Pokemon as before.

Why? What's going on?
