Hi there I'm just starting with hacking and I'm trying to make a gold hack with absolutely all the pokemon from newwer generations but I think I made a terrible mistake because i didn't considerate the sprites with 40x40 or 48x48 so all my sprites are 56x56 well my question is if I can resize all sprites and make them 56x56 without affect the rom???????? I hope that someone could help me or I'll have to do the spriting again :'(
P.D. sorry my english I'm from Mexico

If you are trying to add *all* the new Pokemon like you say, you are going to have a lot more problems than image size (which isn't really an issue). The game only uses 1 byte for a Pokemon's identifier meaning there is only room for 255 Pokemon (actually more like 254, since "FF" is often used to mark the end of data). You would have to literally modify every single routine in the game that deals with Pokemon if you want to have more Pokemon than that.

Well, since Gold has 251 Pokemon, and there are 254 slots available... you can do 3. Plus if I remember, the Egg takes up 1 of those slots too.

What you could do though is to pick 251 Pokemon from the new ones that you really like and replace the original Pokemon with your new ones.

I think I didnt explain myself clearly because thats just what I want to do replace the pokemon from gen I and II with pokemon from newer gens thats why I wanted to know if change all the sprites to 56x56 won't affect the game :P sorry if I didnt explain it well.

Oh okay then. Yeah you made it sound like you wanted to have 600 and something Pokemon in a gold hack at first.

But yeah, you can easily change which size image each Pokemon loads. My "Pokemon Editor Ultimate" tool can do that. The backsprites need to be 48x48 though.
