Sorry for the wait everyone. Had some RL stuff going on and it's been difficult figuring out how to get this working in a way that works well for everyone.
So I'm here to ask - would you prefer if this was just one massive mod that you'd have to break up yourself, one mod with several variants (1 for each Gen of Pokemon, of which there are 7), or 7 mods (since there are 7 generations of Pokemon) where the main mod is CP and AT? Or some different variant I haven't thought of?
I posted an AT version here. It's got 1 main file that has all the generations from this mod and then 7 optional files (1 for each generation included in this mod).
Thank you for the suggestion, but I won't be updating this at all. I wasn't the original creator and I don't do art, so I wouldn't be able to provide the additional pokemon.
Glad you have interest in seeing this expanded. Whoever wants to is free to expand it or make mods, based on mine, that add the other generations. My mod was just to get the pokemon assets from DGA to CP.
I can take a crack at making this work for Content Patcher (CP). Not sure how to make it work with Alternate Textures (AT), but if I can get it for CP, then I'll look into AT. Seems easy enough, just need to convert things to use the correct CP-isms.
Mind you - according to the Permissions & Credits, I'll need to contact them about submitting anything. Plus the mod author has been active lately, so maybe they're working on it or they'll reply. Who knows.
Edit - I was able to get a CP and AT version working locally (for abra, currently). I'll see what I can do about getting everything else upgrade. There are a lot of images/textures to consider so this might take a few hours. I'll see about doing this later today/tomorrow.
I still need to reach out to the mod author to see what their plans are, but it was much more straight forward than I thought. Might even add in the ability to enable/disable certain Pokemon for CP since not all Pokemon are everyone's favorites and you probably don't want to have to scroll just to find the one you want.
Just curious for people out there - if you could have one or the other: would you want an AT version or a CP version? Both? Let me know in a reply! I'll let you know what I find out after I message the mod author.
I suppose with an answer like that, I could just do both. People who want to only have to use CP and be able to buy the pokemon can download that and then people who want AT and be able to texture specific furniture can choose that.
If you are able to publish the mod, if it's not too much bother, since there are a lot of sprites would you consider making a furniture catalogue for the pokemons so they do not take over Robin's shop? 🥹❤️
Been trying to figure out how to make the furniture catalogue work but can't figure it out with just CP (and I don't want to do a C# version). I plan to do an AT version though (which will definitely solve the problem).
Can't get ahold of the original author either so might not even post it. Good practice though.
Figured out how to get it into the furniture catalogue, but not sure how, or even if it's possible, to get it into its own collection or to make a whole new catalogue. I think making a new catalogue is beyond CP capabilities. But they would show under decor (which is the last tab in the catalogue). I'll keep tinkering with it to see if I can force it to do something different.
are you using the calcifer frameworks to make a new catalog? I am sure wildflour and himetarts would be willing to help you use it if you need to make a catalog
No, just trying to do it via plain CP. If this mod is to be converted to CP, I'd rather not have it have any other requirements other than CP. For AT, this isn't a problem since it's just textures.
I got it working with being in a catalogue and figured out how to put it into various, already existing, catalogues. But the game hardcodes the actual catalogues so I can't make a new one without another mod's assistance, which is disappointing. 1.6 made modding easier, but didn't open things like catalogues.
Also kind of weird - adding it to any catalogue adds it to the furniture catalogue. Oh well. That would probably have to be good enough.

Thank you all so much for your patience. While I'm still working on the CP version (I really want this to just work for everyone but I don't think that's going to be possible as I don't want to use a mod ID that isn't my own), I posted an AT version here. It's got 1 main file that has all the generations from this mod and then 7 optional files (1 for each generation included in this mod).
I personally think that just using Alternative Textures will be much nicer as this is the only version. But I will continue to work on the CP version and just push out something new just to get something out there and then think about a way to try to make a backward compatible version.

I don't want to be given credit for this assets gathering, nor need a honorable mention.
consider it a generous gift.
i wish i could help with modding problems but i can hopefully assist this way.
I'm planning on using this mod in the future, and i also know some like to see their favourite pokemon in here too. so hopefully this helps in that goal.
Looking forward to any additions, but remember to don't overextend yourself. i'll wait as long as it takes.
for now i'll keep this one in the back of my mind for later.

I happen to recognise the assets used in this mod and also happen to know where they can easily be found.
I have seen them before in this asset pack
I contains all pokemon up to gen 8 with all 4 directions (west, east, north and south)
and if you want to go even further. Here's the resources for gen 9 (still in works, so keep an eye out.)
