    Code: Move Resource Thread

    The Power Gem posted here doesn't work - it throws an error halfway through the animation. Because I don't want this post to just saying something here doesn't work, I'll put forth a suggestion - some moves (Cotton Guard's an example that doesn't have an anim here yet) benefit from just taking...

    Code: Move Resource Thread

    Haven't studied the whole thread so I don't know if one's been posted, but I can contribute a Shell Smash anim I created a couple of months ago. Note that I made this when I was fooling around with pointers and such, so it may have a few poor practices. (It's also probably not very good.) Use...

    Is difficult Pokemon game good or bad?

    I prefer harder games - a game that spoonfeeds the player isn't fun. However I prefer difficulty in the form of surprising, sensible movesets and type countering over difficulty in the form of evasion hax, excessive grinding and 1530 BST bosses without warning. (Although this sort of difficulty...

    Development: Creating New Battle Animations

    Finding the end of an animation is normally trial and error - your best bet is to grab a bunch of bytes starting at Karate Chop's offset, paste them into free space (FF bytes) and repoint Karate Chop's pointer in the table to where you posted the edited bytes, open up GBA's Memory Viewer (Tools...

    Pokemon Gyms

    I'm torn - a gym with just a leader is boring, but some puzzles (Sabrina's teleport puzzle, Surge's trashcan thing, every ice puzzle ever) are either based on luck (read: loading states) or just obnoxious. Some gyms, like Drayden's in BW2, were rather well done, though, so I'd say those types...

    Most overrated generation of Pokemon?

    I feel like the praise that Gen 5 gets as a whole is largely as a result of the bashing it immediately received from the people who regard the original 151 as the best (not using the term Genwunner; it's kind of idiotic.) It's sort of the mentality that "it's the least popular Gen and I have to...

    The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Resource [COMPLETED]

    Seconding the thank-you. I wish I could help in some way, but alas, I'm terrible at spriting. ^Try copying and pasting the "direct link".

    5th Gen Is anyone ditching their starter?

    I ditched mine as soon as I caught something else. I think it was harder (especially since you're really skimped for choice outside of Riolu until you get to Virbank) but more rewarding. The main problem is the lack of good water-types available pre-E4. I don't think you can find the Water Stone...

    5th Gen What do you think of B/W2?

    I quite enjoy it. The story is a bit weaker this time around, but I really liked the story for B/W - it was by far the most well thought-out and went a bit past get all badges - take down evil organisation - become champion, so that's probably not fair on B/W2's behalf. It was a bit easy after...

    5th Gen How Long have you played BW2?

    I'm at 74h. I've had it since North America release date. Although I'm fairly sure about half of that is idle time.

    NecrumWarrior's Hidden Potential

    Don't worry about it. I would feel bad taking something without giving something in return, however meager. I'll be in the WFC room for a bit now. Hope to see you online! :D I've added your Black FC.

    5th Gen What is Your Team in B/W 2

    My in-game team has stayed largely the same, but thanks in large amount to the lovely people over at the Trade Corner, I'm slowly building my PWT/Battle Subway/slightly meta team. I'm not done EV training, though, and I only have 3, but: Tyranitar (Naughty, 252 Atk, negligible amount in HP)...

    3rd Gen What Pokemon did you use the Master Ball on?

    Poochyena. I have my friends to thank for that. Catching Rayquaza took forever. When I'm emulating, I rarely use the Master Ball because save-states and non-static RNG.

    If you were a Gym leader

    I want to take a different spin on the gym thing. My theme would be Sun. (Permanent Sunny Day on the field. All team members perform better under the sun.) I'd probably be the 7th or 8th gym leader. I'd give out the Solar Badge and the TM for Growth. Team: Castform - Lv. 51 @Sitrus Berry...
