::The IC images are sprites found in {{bp|Generation III}} and {{bp|Generation IV}} games for {{bp|type}}s, {{bp|contest condition}}s, or {{bp|damage category}} (IV only). Strangely, these GIFs are not being used on main articles. I traced the GIF usage to {{bp|Template:Ic}} so editing should be rather easy when a properly ripped PNG is available. Can those GIFs be reconsidered for {{template|gif}}? --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 19:55, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

:::Sorry for butting into the conversation but, I do have png replacements for the IC images (if we want to switch them over). If we do switch them over, I am willing to go and switch all the uses over that are not called on be the [[:bp:Template:Ic|Template:Ic]]. Also, "WailmerPromo.gif" did have a jpg version that was deleted that can be restored to replace it. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 20:24, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

::::The impression Bulbapedia gives me is that the {{bp|Bulbapedia:Editorial Board|Editorial Board}} doesn't want JPEGs at all. The JPEG that was deleted would be eligible for {{template|jpg}} if restored, unless the policy towards JPEGs are more relaxed compared to GIF, as PNG replaces everything with 24-bit color + alpha channel and better compression algorithms compared to GIF being limited to 8-bit color + transparency only (even the unofficial APNG format replaces what GIF can do officially). --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 00:16, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
