    I'm busy putting together a Black and White addon pack for Pokemon Essentials for my game, and thought that it'd be a good idea to share with you guys.

    It's not yet finished, but as soon as I've added all the Pokemon Data I'll post a link to the project with it here.

    Things to do:
    - Seasons
    - New Pokemon
    - New Abilities
    - New Sprites
    - New Arrest System layout
    - New screens (text input, Poké Mart, etc)

    All of the data from HGSS and the updates to Pokemon movesets etc will be added as well.

    If there's anything else let me know.

    I hope I'm allowed to do this and post this here! :)

    This'll also include all the bug fixes and problems that are detailed on the Wiki (with due credit).

    @FL. thank you! That speeds up the process of the Pokémon. Just to add in all the moves that weren't accounted for and *sigh* code in loads of moves which I barely know how to do.

    I'll also include something for footsteps and snow, and include some of the basic features of Black and White.
     
    I am going to find a lot of this really handy for my own project, namely the battle system stuff.

    I look forward to seeing it develop!
     
    The battle system I'm going to look at ways of animating the sprites, but as of yet, I don't have any of the animations from BW.

    Arkeis has all animated front sprites available here, but they don't have much backsprites available. It's good to start with, though :)
    Good luck making a complete addon!

    Thank you for the link. It'd be brilliant when they add shiny sprites. For now, unanimated backsprites looks okay.

    Please, if you or someone you know codes very well in RGSS, please ask them to send me a message! I need as much help with this as I can get :)
     
    I'm looking forward to this as well! Good luck!
     
    Also, I actually have a link use for my animated sprites everywhere- Here.
     
    This looks great! I look forward to it.

    Thanks for the support!

    Thank you :D

    These are BRILLIANT thank you! Are they going to complete it or will some sprites never be available?

    I apologise for the absolutely terrible updating lately, it was a seriously bad time for me to fall ill with pneumonia! But I've recovered.

    Things I have done:

    • Basic Black/White tileset/characters
    • ANIMATED BATTLE SPRITES :D (still adding them all, it takes a long time)
    • All new Pokemon from Gen V
    • Busy adding abilities from Gen V
    • Items from Gen V
    • New moves from Gen V (Will need a scripter to help me code these + moves from Gen IV in)
    • Graphics from Black and White (UI)

    I must make note! I can't do much more after adding all the UI and the animations without scripting and I have little knowledge of this :( I'm intending to manipulate the grass stuff to code in deep sand and hopefully tall grass/dark grass as well.

    I will make a youtube video soon showing off the animated battle sprites!

    Thanks!
     
    I've been collecting some black and whiteish tiles from around Deviant Art and am ready to make a tileset, which I could share with this pack if you wish.
     
    Here is an overworld pack for unova pokemons.
