To add to the plethora of sprite resources available for ROM hackers, I present The Accurate FireRed Overworld Sprite Resource!
The aim of this project is to create overworld sprites that are accurate to the battle sprites for NPCs in the GBA Pokémon games in the style of FRLG's overworld sprites. In the vanilla versions, a handful of overworld sprites are used for different trainer classes, and it sometimes is way off (the Guitarist overworld being used for Bird Keepers, for example). If you don't want that in your hack, this resource is for you! Note that these overworlds do not (all) conform to the default palettes in the ROMs, so if you're a hacker I recommend you use something like Navenatox's palette hack to support custom palettes.
This resource is not for Pokémon overworld sprites!

You're welcome to use any of the sprites from this resource, just include a link to this thread in the credits section of your thread. You are also welcome to submit your own sprites to be added to the resource, provided they are of an adequate quality, fit the style of FRLG overworlds, have not been completed already, and are properly indexed (i.e. they have been inserted into a ROM and then exported).
Struck-through Trainer classes already have unique or battle sprite-accurate overworld sprites in FRLG; unbolded ones do not yet have custom sprites made for them. The first link next to a bolded Trainer classes are to imgur, to preview what the sprites look like. The second is a download link for the individual overworld frame sprites, for ease of insertion.
Where Trainer classes exist in both FRLG and the Hoenn games (Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald), the overworld sprites will take the design from the battle sprites in FRLG, not RSE. Classes unique to RSE, however, will have the overworld sprites based off their designs.
