Yanmega Shiny Sprite

[Zane0144 16]

Hey, not sure if this belongs here, but it's been bugging me for a few episodes now. Yanmega's shiny sprite seems to have never been updated from the old models and is too big on the trainer's side. Here's a pic for reference:

Thanks!

I don't think it belongs there in the game in my opinion. It must of been an error because Yanmega's sprite doesn't look like that..

What episode are you playing Zane? it's probably that episode that Amethyst or some others forgot to fix up.

I'm playing episode 14. And like I said, it's been this way since at least episode 11 or 12

Here's a temporary suggestion. In your reborn folder, go to Graphics, Battlers, and then look up the shiny yanmega sprite. (Should be called 469s)

You can see there Yanmega's back sprite, and why it appears that way (In fact, many sprites appear that way, showing only the back of your pokemon's head instead of the entire body). If you're decent with photoshop you can edit the original backsprite yourself and replace it, or copy the non-shiny sprite and rename it 469sb. Unfortunately, if you do that, your yanmega will not appear in his correct shiny sprite in battle.

(As a side note, you can pretty much make any pokemon you want "shiny" artificially by messing around with those files)

Hm, not a bad idea. Thanks!

Although the tempts me to make it into something totally non pokemon related as well

Most 4th and 5th gen pokemon have not had their shiny sprites updated as of Episode 14. They probably will be in the next release.
