I had originally assumed while playing through Heart Gold that most of the back sprites were the same as they were in DPPt. I was fighting FireBreather Toshiharu when I used my Ditto to copy his Magmars. That's when I noticed Magmar now has 4 spikes on his back instead of three, and his back isn't as arched.

Is there going to be a section put in place for HGSS Back Sprites, or do they replace the DPPt back sprites?

This is certainly different!
Here's a link to all the back sprites, credit to Veekun of Serebii.

Hello. I believe the FRLG backs need updating first. I mentioned that like a year ago.
 
We don't exactly have those all conveniently in a folder, though, as far as I know.
 
Some first frame sprites were moded in Platinum. Look at Bulbasuar, though it's hard to see, its eye and tooth are a pixel or so different.
Oh, and Bulbasaur in FRLG is smiling instead of frowning.
 
Since we're talking about back sprites already: there are a lot of them that have remained the same throughout different games of the same generation, but have received a new coloration (especially in Crystal). Which ones are we supposed to keep? The newest ones or the originals?

We seriously need someone who can rip sprites (FR/LG, and HG/SS), fast and efficiently.
 
It is ripped completely. We have it in a folder which we all upload from.

What we need is one of the rest of the games. We've got non-transparent sprites, sprites at ridiculous resolutions (it's 56x56 for Gen I/II, 64x64 for III, and 80x80 for IV, NOTHING ELSE)... augh. This is what Archives Cleanup Month was supposed to be for. I know, it's 151 x 4 + 251 x 8 + 386 x 8 + 493 x 8... but please!
 
How about an extra pain? Doesn't Steven have a trainer back-sprite in his double-battle with the player in Emerald? I've never seen that in the archives.

I hate to repeat myself, but it's kind of difficult to help if you don't know what to do. So again: should the back sprites be the most recent versions of that generation? Should they be the original version? Or should there even be separate files?
 
We kinda haven't determined the back sprite alteration issue yet. We'll discuss it tonight.
 
Indeed we will.

Which should be after this whole mess is straightened out.

I personally think they should be seperate files.
If there's differences, they should be seperate.
