pokemon-assets

Essential Pokémon assets for any kind of project: menu sprites, fonts, JSON data, SASS/CSS spritesheet and more.

Please note that this is an early version and the JSON API format and the project structure and contents may change until we release the first stable version, 1.0.0.

About missing sprites for newest Pokémon games:

Note: The images are not yet updated with the newest Pokémon introduced in Legends Arceus, since there are no pixel-art icon sprites for them yet. We are trying to find an alternative from pixel artists. Feel free to contribute to msikma/pokesprite for this.
