Regular users

  • Upload, upload, upload!
  • Upload any missing back sprites from the following categories that have differences between games: (add in a proper summary template i.e {{backsprite|180|Flaaffy|shiny|II|Gold and Silver}}):
Category:Crystal back sprites
Category:FireRed and LeafGreen back sprites
Category:Platinum back sprites
Category:HeartGold and SoulSilver back sprites

Useful tools: veekun Use this to compare back sprites between games and to know which ones have differences among them.

Current tasks

  • Upload animated menu sprites for Generation V: e.g.  
  • The format for uploading is:

==Summary==
{{animenusprite|###|Pokémon}}
==Licensing:==
{{i-Fairuse-sprite-game}}

  • .gifs can be converted to animated .png using this tool

Ongoing tasks

  • Upload all Black and White images (e.g. File:Spr 5b 151.png, File:Spr b 5b 135 s.png)
    • Upload over the current sprites to show Black and White unanimated images (e.g. File:081 s.png)
    • Upload all missing sprites
  • Upload png replacements of anime jpgs (do not forget to input the {{delete}} template into the file to notify administrators

  • Categorize, and add proper licensing to all files
  • Request better images that don't fit any of the above requirements through the {{bad image}} template

  • Request deletion of images through the {{delete}} template. Ensure the said images on Bulbapedia and/or Bulbanews are properly fixed or removed before doing this.
  • Fix the images on the TCG such that they go in the proper category (this category is for non-card images, whereas this is for the cards only) by use of the correct licensing (non-card vs. this)
