Add New Pokemon In 15 Easy Steps!

maybe my sprite wasn't good?I've tried to replace bulbusaur with a magmortar that I took from bulbapedia....

Hmm, have you triend shrinking it to 64*64 size? :)

Nice tutorial by the way mate, now I can have Minusle and all the real Pokemon up yo 3rd gen. :D
 
Ah. See, I don't know the regions... I just go with whatever I'm given... :)

That's cool. :) One question those, any idea how to change the little pokemon icons that are in your party?

Well, in fact I do! You need to download IconEd. You can get it from WAH I think. Then load your ROM, go to which ever slot you put your Pokemon in, and edit. :)

Ah, I might already have that. :D Nice. :)
 
So, I can get it work. My Turtwig is in Route 1 as it should be but my menu text is messed up. When I push start lower bar is messed up it doesn't matter much but how can I fix it?
 
That, I don't know. That happens to me as well.. In every hack I can remember, the start menu gets mucked up... I think that is just a hacking side effect...
 
this is a GREAT tutorial! very clear! i just had two problems witht he programs and i was wondering if you knew what to do about them.

first, when i try to open Poke Edit Pro, this message comes up:
"Component 'comdlg32.ocz' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid"
i really don't knwo what that means, i was hoping you could help with that.

also, when i try importing my sprite onto unZL, it says it isnt indexed :s. have no clue what its talking about. if you could help me out id REALLY appreaciate it :D. thanks.

I'm glad you find this tutorial useful! :)

With the first error, I don't know what is wrong. I'd try to find a different place to download it...

And when you save your picture with InfranVeiw, does it ask you to choose the transparent colour? Because you don't want to. Deselect the button that says "Save transparent colour" in the little window that say "PNG/PNM/ICO save options."

Tell me if this is the problem. If not, I'll look into it.
 
Yeah i figured out the second problem:p. i was just being stupid, it was so obvioud.

but the Poke Edit Pro still ain't working. i also tried YAPE and tried getting it from several different websites but i still always get the same message:s. anyways, if you dont know thats fine, thanks anyways.

The answer to the first problem is simple: You don't have 'comdlg32.ocz'. Search the net and download it if you find it. I'm not sure where you must place it though, you might wanna search for that too. Google is your best friend.

I'm not sure, but it seems to me like it should be placed in the 'sytem 32' file... But I'm not sure. Better look it up, because 'system 32' is one you really want to mess with...
 
Hm, this seems to be a very well put together tutorial and it seems that it should work fine, but I guess I just have that bad luck >.>

I'm replacing Bulbasaur with Turtwig and I followed all of your steps, but when I go to choose him as one of my starter Pokemon... I'd show with Imageshack, but it's getting all weird on me right now : (

Anyways, that's what it looks like. Any idea why?

I had same problem about 4 days ago. My Turtwig messed up because I first made it and imported it into the game but I didn't like it so I fixed it a little and imported it again and it was messed up and it messed my game... So I just took a new rom to hack and I imported it only once and it works.

I have already Turtwig and Grotle, I messed up with Torterra (first it got black Torterra, then I tried to fix it and my game was messed up again). So, I'm going to put Torterra to my game (again..).

The sprites you are trying to import could be too big. Import the new sprite somewhere where you have free space (i.e. 0x800000 or above), and use Poke Edit Pro to change the offset to that one.
