:::Has he specifically said the images are available for anyone to use at any time, without retribution, and can you thus say our using then would not get us in trouble? That i a crtieria for us to use images; if someone else rips them, even though that user doesn't own the images themselves, we still need to know we are legally allowed to use images ripped as part of his image ripping work. Obviously we treat them as fair use for the purpose of Nintendo or such owning them.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:35, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

:::Also, one more thing. Make sure to rename the files in the archive in the format of Shuffle### format, with forms getting proper matching numbering per the conventions we've used for them. For instance, female Meowstic would be Shuffle678F (male is unnumbered), Rainy Form Castform is Shuffle351R, and so on. I'm told you can quickly upload and replace over existing files directly with names that way, whereas the way they're named you'll need to select the proper filename to replace each time. If you have any questions over file names, you can let me know about any you're not sure about and I can help find them for you. Also, some forms and Shinies are not uploaded yet, so we'll come to those later as well when we upload. Again, please link me to something showing we have permission to use them and I'll give the go-ahead.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:40, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

::::I gave it a day, but there is no reply so far. tsukimechii isn't an active user on reddit, so I can't guarantee a timely update on this matter. The closest thing I found to a confirmation of free usage of their work is [https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonShuffle/comments/5vc6he/new_sprites_coming_soon_any_help/des5njp/ this] - a month old comment. It does seem like they intend for others to make use of the sprites they ripped. If that doesn't pass the upload criteria, then we'll have to wait for a personal reply from them - something which I can't assure. I can try to look for other ways to contact them though.
