The DPPt Style Gen VI and Beyond Backsprite Resource

PorousMist326 · Apr 7, 2021

This thread is dedicated to backsprites of future generation Pokemon made to resemble the default Gen 4 variants used by Essentials. Sprites will have to be drawn or aligned to fit on a 160x160 or 80x80 size canvas.

I am aware that some people have already made Gen 4 style sprites, but most of those are rips from GBA ROM-hacking projects and pasted onto a default canvas, thus, some sprites appear too small, too large when attempting to increase their size, or become blurred or distorted when modified to fit with the defaults. That is why this thread is made.

Some sprites are made beforehand thanks to various people (See the credits). They are all compiled be me and links will be provided below. Alternatively, new sprites can be accepted.

Here is the full list:

Gen VI:

Gen VII:

Gen VIII:

This is such a life saving ressource! And there already is a pretty fair amount of sprites currently done.

Thanks a lot for this ressource, and good luck making the next sprites!

MQuetzal · Apr 8, 2021

I've been looking for something like this because the sprites that are currently done are good, but as you said are small.

This suits perfectly with the 4 gen style! I wish I could help but I don't have too much time and I'm not a spriter...

Thanks for this amazing resource and, as ChromusSama said, good luck with the remaining sprites!

I've been making some for a project I'm working on, by upscaling backsprites from the DS-style Gen VII and Beyond Pokémon Sprite Repository. Here they are!

You got the wrong Kubfu oof. The middle one is the correct one.

As promising as they look, they appear a little too large. That is why sprites must be fit onto a 160x160 canvas, because you know it is a problem when sprites are bigger than Charizard or Aggron:

Even Tyrantrum must go with this criteria:

For now, only the mid-starters will be used. The rest will be in consideration.

Yikes, my bad. It is corrected down below.

Anyways, time for a mini update. Here are the new ones:

Barbaracle:

Goodra:

Trevenant:

Zygarde (Full):

Thwackey:

Raboot:

Drizzile:

Kubfu (Corrected Sprite):

Here's Corviknight, i feel someone may be able to make something better than this, but here's a base, i guess.

Woops, sorry about that, I forgot these were made for a different project in essentials, so we didn't always stick to that limit 100% :P
Hatterene and Drakloak definitely do fit the size limits, though, iirc.

lichenprincess · Apr 16, 2021

Hi there!

I'd like to share these Phantump sprites I "made". They are actually heavilly based on the work of leParagon from the Smogon Gen VI Sprite Project, so if you want to add the sprites, credits go in priority to leParagon.

Sorry in advance, I'm not a spriter, so Phantump may look weird.

lichenprincess · May 4, 2021

Got another one for y'all

Anyways, about time I post something. Here are some fresh new ones:
