I hate to add to my list of “Pokemon themed ides”, but hear me out on this one again. You might have heard of Poke Wilds, the project that is still in the works that is based in Gen 2 graphics and mechanics while adding most, if not all of the pokemon to the game. It has an easy moding tool as just editing graphics and simple code.
I did make one just to edit the trainer, and in the process to edit ONE pokemon instead of them all, it is still being worked on, and I wanted to show this amazing project to more people and get the moding scene for this fan game in high gear. I also have a base model using the Hiker NPC so I’ll drop it as a download so you can make your own edit.

My Character and Hiker Mod
I will update the mod folder when I finish projects, but have fun making your own mods and post them here if you want to share them!
