MetalMario's D/P Sprite Cleanups

[MetalMario]

Some of you have probably seen the link in my signature, but I figure I'll make a thread for them, anyway--get more visibility.

The following are sprites which I've taken from the availible sharp Diamond/Pearl screenshots and cleaned up, removing all the JPEGgies. I take no credit for them. It's the talented artists at Game Freak we have to thank for these. Therefore, they are free for you to use for any purposes normally acceptible. Credit is completely optional.

I'll update this thread as new screenshots are released, up until the release of D/P, when direct rips are bound to find their way to the web. I may also eventually give overworld sprites a shot.

Very nice work.Although the weavile's eyes looks squished (the one on our left.)

 

[bob799]

awsome
are you gonna do the new starters?

 

[voho]

These are nicely ripped, and plus, many new screenies today XD
I'll keep my eye on this.

Cool i laek most the old game ^_^

These look like you copied em from Gridiron and the other guys thread. Except for the last row, I know you did them.

 

[MetalMario]

Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone!

I might have done a "version 5" of the classic Weavile, encorporating elements from the revamp version, but I don't see it being worth the effort.

awsome
are you gonna do the new starters?

I'll do the new starters once there are native-resolution versions of them availible. This is the same reason I haven't done Manaphy, Golduck, Pikachu, Elekiburu, Rozureido, or Korobōshi.

This message is hidden because ImmortalKaine is on your ignore list.

(It's a slanderous post so I'll address it anyway:‍)

Only I did these as they came out and had the link in my sig the whole time. Heck, even ask Gridiron! You do make a good point that I didn't have enough publicity, which is why I made this thread. In case that wasn't enough, you do not find the following in Gridiron/D-man's collection:

 

[ImmortalKaine]

Weavile back sprite/Lucario back sprite, both in Gridiron's. Someone just posted em. =) And the first post I made in this topic wasn't a slanderous post you stupid idiot.

 

[MetalMario]

You're hopeless... -.- This is the kind of thing where, if done right, there will be no way to tell who did what. If both of us did perfect jobs, the end results would be identical. This is why I claim no credit for them. I could go into the efforts to point out some pixels and colours which are different, but I don't think you're worth the effort. If you don't believe I did these, fine, but please don't spam up my thread. Thank you.

Also, slander: (n) A false or malicious statement, especially one which is injurious to a person's reputation.

You'll also find that the Lucario and Weavile I pointed out are different versions.

Keep up the FANTASTIC work! *claps*

Are you able to do the Erekiburu sprite, since the cords are blending in the darkened background in the screenshot it's in?

Also, any chance you can clean up the pokedex entry shot that the new bird Pokemon and Bouysel are in?

 

[PokeRanger]

Nice, the Devamped battle screen looks awesome! ;munchlax;

What the hell is your problem? All you got is a stupid attitude and it's really annoying. It's not like you're all badass or anything. You really come off more as a pathetic little cry baby.

Back to the topic...

Well done! These look great! ^^

 

[Wietse]

It's very well done

 

[Alzi]

they look interesting to me

Naetoru, Hikozaru, and a bunch of new mini-sprites are done. (I did them last week; I haven't done much since then but I'll get back to it.)

I'll get to my favourite starter, Potchama, next, and I will be doing Rozureido, Elekiburu, Bonsly, Mime Jr., Korobōshi, some backsprites, animated sprites, and some misc. stuff, too. Rozureido will be the trickiest since she has all those hearts and stuff in front of her. Maybe I'll use the photo as reference.

I won't be doing the ubiquitous birdie or Naetoru's evo yet since we don't have sharp images of them availible.

Awesomeness

This is the only worthwhile sprite thread on the Serebii.net forums. The other ones have miscolorations, jpeg fragments, and some of them even have stolen sprites. I give this the

Wiiman Seal of Awesome​

EDIT: Your sprites are so awesome, I was inspired to make shinies of some of them. I'd be very honored if you were willing to put them in your main post. I don't need any credit.

 

[Spock]

That, sir, is awesome.


Maybe you could try doing the contest dressings.

 

[MetalMario]

I was busy during the downtime, and I've finished (almost) all of the sprites from the new batch of screenshots. The only two I haven't done are Perap's and Rozureido's backsprites, both of which are significantly covered up and would require heavy reconstruction, much like the first Weavile sprite.

Examples:

Edit: Wiiman, I've put your "shinies" in the top post. They're the copies on your Photobucket, I hope that's alright. Thanks for all the positive input, everyone!

 

[wiiman]

Very nice new sprite additions. The square hands on the Serebii Korobooshi sprite really bothered me. Also, thanks much for bothering to put my sprites on the main post! Using the photobucket url is absolutely fine with me.

 

[Hero of Legend]

How did you clean up Erekiburu (who's in a black background), Roselia's evo (which was covered in pretty pink petals), and Korobooshi (who sprite wasn' even clearly shown)?
