I'm working on some battle sprite devamps from D/P/Pt to FR/LG/R/S/E Style, and I have finished the Lucas one.
You are allowed to request sprites as well, but some things I am better than others in, and I cannot compile overworlds to be compatible with RMXP.

My skillset (10 is best, 1 is worst)

Battle Sprites FR/LG/R/S/E - 8
Overworld Sprites FR/LG - 7.5
Overworld Sprites R/S/E - 7.5
Battle Sprites D/P/Pt/HG/SS - 6
Overworld Sprites D/P/Pt/HG/SS - 6
Anything B/W/B2/W2 - 4.5
Battle Sprites R/B/Y/G/S/C - 5
Overworld Sprites R/B/Y/G/S/C - 9.5

I'll be blunt - that lucas devamp is terrible
take it from me, I for the longest time tried to devamp most of the sprites into GBA format for numerous reasons, and mine use to look (well not like that o-o but...) pretty bad, here is an example of how to devamp well (that I did myself when I was devamping)

OOPS_zps20355697.png


as you can see the actual size is in gen4 size, being 160x160 - while I thought essentials used 128x128, do I devamped a lot of them, but you're not devamping, you're cutting out pixels and making it looks weird

the left side is what I did, cut out some pixels and making it look (in the end) short and terrible

while the middle is how to do it right, you take the original size (which would be the one on the right) and resize it 80%, then resize that 80%
that usually gives you a good start, unless its particularly large - regardless, once you have done that, you fix up the messed up pixels (it works best when its 160x160 being resized as you would fix the 1x1 pixels to being 2x2)

There is more to a good devamp than just shrinking it to GBA Size.

Here's what I did:
1. Recolored to GBA Colors (using FRLG Red as a base)
2. Resized to the size of FRLG Red
3. Changed shading style to closer match FRLG Red
4. Shrunk the pants size so they didn't look fat
5. Changed the face to be FRLG Styled

I do admit the head it a bit squashed, because the face is a bit wider than I had expected, using Red as a base.

Also, new sprites (GSC-Styled custom Rocket Exectutive, based off of the Gold sprite)
