Project: Generation 6 for Pokémon Essentials (Pokémon sprites and PBS files)

Soccersam said:
When I imported the pokemon PBS and sprites, I was happy as a goose in a picnic. I had also already downloaded the icons and the audio files. But then imagine my heartbreak when I saw there was no pokemon from Gen 6 in the Add Pokemon menu in Debug mode! Then I started a new game with the gen 6 starters, but everytime I chose a pokemon from the lab, I got the following error.

I started adding this to my game, and everything works fine, except for some reason it caused any static encounters i have set up to break and give me that error. Any suggestions to fix it would be awesome.

Im running BW essentials by the way.

First of all, Essentials BW is basing on Essentials V15. This Project is for Essentials V16. Second, Essentials BW is a huge modified version of a Vanilla Essentials. This Project was made for a clean Essentials Version. So it is highly expactable that both Projects won't work together well.

You should consider if you really want to use Essentials BW, because it's outdated and its creator has vanished from the internet long time ago, i.e it's not even supported.

By all means, I don't think that anyone here can really help you, beauce this error is such a specific thing and the odds are that you will encounter more problems like that.
 
Sorry I am a bit of a noob.
How do i use the rar files in the download on the first page?

I'm sorry if this is better to PM an Admin about instead, but I edited the Pokemon.txt to have gen 6 Pokemon that will work on 17.2 (or whatever the current version as of this post... And possibly last version.) It works with every other PBS file in the pack, I just had to tweak Pokemon.txt a bit.
Here's the download.

It currently only has up to gen 6, and I'm not going to have my laptop as of tomorrow for who knows how long so I won't be able to add gen 7 for a while, but it's fairly simple to add the Pokemon yourself. It's just very time consuming.

These things (in bold) are missing in this (and 7th gen packs, like Marin's for example) that you'll have to add if you want to make the Pokemon.txt compatible with the current version.

Spoiler:


I hope this helps anybody who wants to have these Pokemon in the current version of Essentials.

Edit: I should probably add that you don't end the file with the -'s. (At least I didn't. I don't know if that would do anything.)

The PBS files are missing one important entry. the Shape entry.
Also, Callmefreak, Hoopa's shape is 4, not 8.

Hey I'm trying to download the graphics but media fire is not allowing me to do so .can you help me ?
 
I added the shiny icons and in the Pokémon menu and the load screen all normal Pokémon icons are animated but the shiny ones are not, does anyone know how to animate them?!
EDIT: found out what's wrong: the shiny icons have the same sprite twice while the normal ones have 2 slightly different ones so in theory the shinies are animated ingame but both images are the same so you can't see it
