WOW we've gotten about 30 of them down that just 463 more to make

also not to rain on everyones parade but because of the way gamefreckes made the diamond/peal games; they gave each pokemon thier own lil animation, the good news is that its only uses two sprites, the face image that you see normally and the seconed one that is used for the animation and it just gets repeated

so what I think we're gonna need to do is just make a second version of the sprites that would flow into a smooth animation, because if my thery is correct the game only calles on two sprites and it morphs and twiks it to suit the animation

if this confuese people I aplogise as since I'm kind of making this up from what I;ve seen in the game and my basic understanding of programing where the game's programe will call in instance any sprite image it needs and moves it how ever it needs to

example[pokemon uses 'metal claw' the sprite is coverd in a grey metal filter and then moved left to right by the programed amount]
