@Naramsim - oh, okay. I did not see any contribution guidelines here so I wasn't sure. Maybe I missed them? If they don't exist, maybe this could be created?

I checked out the Showdown link and looks like they only have 2 sprites available so I we'll need to wait for more to be created.

Yes I think having the contributing guidelines or at least something mentioning the README about the style of the root folder is needed

Hi, @Naramsim, one more question. I found a sprite from Smogon for Mega Victreebel and Mega Dragonite. Are you saying that I should add these images to both the root pokemon/ folder and the proper versions/ folder or just one or the other?

I am little confused on the versions/ folder. I would assume all these Megas would fit into generation 9?

Yeah, so the gen5 style sprites should go both to the root and the version/gen5 folder. It's the style that's important.

As for gen9 only the gen9 style sprites should go to the version/gen9 folder.

The confusion stems from the fact that in the past each generation came with different art style. I don't know if it's still true or if gen9 games have the same style as gen8 or gen7.

I made this last commit but then realized that there is no gen IX directory?

If there's no folder you can create it

Naramsim avatar Dec 13 '25 00:12 Naramsim

okay, I understand what you're saying now. Sorry about that 😅 I committed gen 5 style sprites to the root as I do not have gen9 style sprites for those two.

Ok! I squashed and merged these two sprites
