To commemorate the 20th anniversary of Pokémon Emerald‘s launch in Japan, a collective of 130 artists has collaborated to create a romhack featuring newly redrawn versions of all 386 Pokémon from the game.
Saved you a click.
It’s called Emerald Resprited. Has a Vanilla version with just the sprite changes, and a different version where all 386 are catchable and trainer rosters are adjusted to match up with each artist’s contributions.
Incredibly inconsistent quality of the sprites. Just take a quick scroll through their google doc. Actual artist work right next to obvious child scribbles.
How can someone look at all these different styles, let alone the ones that literally look like they’re drawn by a six-year-old, and think, “Yeah, that’s fine”?
Not to mention charmander’s obvious rip off of Agumon (the Digimon) lol
Oh wow… Squirtle, Ekans, Nidoqueen, Alakazam, Rhyhorn, electrode…
What the hell is going on with Oddish!
Hypno wearing a hi-vis vest, holding a stop sign.
Goddamnit, Hitmonlee is just straight up potato.
Kakuna wearing a tux?
Ekans made me cackle
Especially because there are tons of Roms with very good sprite and also a totally new adventure and all new Mons.

And Hatsune Miku (part of farfetch’d)
I can see why the title says stunning cause I am stunned how this is anything but a joke? I could design better sprites and I only draw stick figures ffs

Ok now I get why you have to fight your way everywhere in pokemon. Imagine this thing running out at you in a cave. Of course you’ll send your Charizard to crisp it

Blaziken lord and thorn kidz pretty much absolutely ruined this, will never play it with those shitty sprites.
However, I would pay for a version completely done with the Brooklyn_jiji, Gabriel mesquita, or saurus sprites.
Inconsistent as Android’s interface (Google joke)
