4th Gen Platinum Sprites....

It's only too bad they don't have the same animation framework as Crystal.
Correction in bold.

They should be using Crystal's "selective refresh" style of animation to take advantage of more than two frames. Combine this with a more subdued version of the Emerald "bouncing around" matrix animation style and they'd be win.
 
I want my attack animation turned on when Skuntank uses Flamethrower.


The Plat sprites are improved only in 'position' in my opinion.

your rival looks like he's dancing
.__.

The trainer sprites have changed? I thought it was just the 'player' sprites that changed...

Exactly. If only The Pokémon Company could not be so lazy and spend more time on Pokémon Sprites.

The trainers now have animation, I think.
