ROM Hack Back Sprite Editing (Trainer to Pokemon)

[BlarghSD]

I've been fooling around with this and so far no luck. Is it possible to replace the trainer's in-battle back sprite with that of a Pokemon's? I'm still new with the narc files and editing in general, and I apologize if this topic has already been touched upon (couldn't find it anywhere). Thanks for any and all input/advice.

Here is a complete tutorial made by Kazo. It has four parts.

That doesn't help them if they're changing for Black/White

anyway you ask on pokemon project too? o.oa "http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?18397-Advanced-Back-Sprite-Editing" sorry i not answer it XD

try using tools from :
http://projectpokemo...azo-s-B-W-Tools

Is easy tools but anyway for new on this, i just give a some info:
- ncgr and narn, these format/extension are compressed by normally on pokemon BW, so you must decompressed it, you can check on hex editor on first byte are 11 (or 0x11), for tools you can check link. tinke or dscemp are same fuction for decompressing.
- you can used kiwi.ds for extract these file with extension, or you can using tinke or puyo puyo tools, actually is have plenty tools for that, since pokemon BW sprite are same as old generation (you can see on trainer elite four sprite on DPPt or HGSS, on BW sprite all are animated, not static... so video from kazo it will confused for newbie, in my mid is still same and helpfull for BW... without that video it will hard to explain more on BW... so is needed.
- don't trying replace trainer sprite with pokemon sprite, is not same size and also pokemon sprite is more bigger... don't use crystalltile for replacing them...

for reinserting to narc is same as reinsert file into zip/rar/7z, ...(is different format... so don't trying using same tools...)

i almost forgot, you can get these tools from filetrip...

Can I add in my own created sprites?

Thanks for all the responses. I have been using Kazo's tools, which is what prompted my question in the first place. And yes, that was me on Project Pokemon. I'm kinda bummed about not being able to replace the trainer with a Pokemon... is it not possible or will it just look too weird? I'm still working on figuring out all the intricacies of the Sprite Editor, so I guess I just need to experiment some more. Thanks again for all the help folks.
