Tristantine The Great's Fakédex Template
A template for displaying your Fakémon sprites as a full, easy to look at, Pokédex.


This is merely a cosmetic template to organize your Fakémon sprites on to view them as a full Pokédex. These templates have existed for years, as artists online usually make their own for their specific dex. I wanted to make my own as well, but I figured if enough people wanted to use it themselves I could publish it for...

I really like displays like this, so I made a script to generate a full graphic without having to do all the work of pasting and arranging yourself. Here's an image generated using the Kanto dex as an example -

  • Call TristantineDisplay.pbFullFakedex(dex) to generate an image based on the given dex. The dex argument is optional, but you hit a hardware limit with bigger dexes, so you should have a small National Dex if you're going to use it. It'll create the image and save it as DexDisplay.png in Graphics/Pictures.
  • Shadow size and metrics are already accounted for
  • Things like row size, colors of borders/background/etc can be changed with constants at the top (and new types can be added to the arrays)
  • As you can see with Weezing, Scyther, and Gyarados, some sprites won't fit the borders when their metrics are factored in. (Personally, I think adds a dynamic look with some of them, but then you get cases like Pidgeot where it just looks bad)
  • It only uses Essentials assets, so that means that the font isn't the one used here, but that could be changed by creating a font out of the text given and then changing it in the constants up top.
  • If your dex starts at 0, remove + 1 from the line dexnum = regiondex.index(species.species) + 1
  • Monotype Pokemon are displayed differently in this
