Took a break from sprites today to kind of recharge... ended up doing random things including like half of the planned Misc Updates for this episode (and it will show as only a 5% increase because I am generously reserving the rest of that section for bug fixes and whatever else comes up)

Some of the things I did today:

  • Changed the Master Ball to a functionally equivalent Reborn Ball after it has been repeatedly requested
  • Reborn-ified the previously neglected (not to mention removed) Item PC screen
  • Added cries for Mega Pokemon and Gen VI's mythical legendaries that were missing them... and also all Gen VII Pokemon.
  • Integrated some elements from a UI mod update from the forums. The mod was made by another user but it was pretty nice, and the creator allowed me to adopt parts of it. Forum users may recognize it above. 

The previous UI was more or less just a recoloured form of the default Pokemon Essentials one; I did not spend much time on it because other things were a priority. The fact that someone took the time to outline and make a custom one is pretty huge, and I decided to add it mainly to help in diversifying the game from other Essentials games.

After all, default graphics are a sin.   

Forum users may recognize the modded UI below.

As a random tidbit, I usually use Ampharos for testing wild battles because the first Pokemon is Abomasnow, and I don't wanna deal with Slow Warning. The second Pokemon is Abra, who won't stick around even for me. Ampharos, however, is one Page-Down click away and has none of those shennigans. So I appreciate Ampharos-- even if I beat up on it regularly.
