Update

01/20/20: Gen VIII Favorites

I'd been hoping for an official release of high-quality art for the Galar Pokémon, but since that still hasn't happened, I've given up and am just making my temporary Gen VIII Favorite Pokémon Picker, which uses party icons, official for now. I didn't do so when I first made it because it was kind of rushed and half-baked and very much made as a temporary thing for the particularly desperate, but I've now made a number of fixes to it (thanks to @shake_the_sky on Twitter, who took me up on my persistent requests for corrections) and hopefully it's reasonably solid now.

It still will not clobber your regular picker state... but if you'd like to import your regular picker state into the Gen VIII picker, I've now also added an import/export feature to both the original picker and the Gen VIII one, allowing you to take your regular picker state and quickly import it into the Gen VIII picker. It's accessible in the same place the "Show debug information" link used to be, in the bottom right of the "Found favorites" tab.

Again, this Gen VIII picker is temporary, until there's a better permanent solution for images to use. The regular picker will eventually be updated with the Gen VIII Pokémon too, when there is a polished, consistent decently-sized set of images to use for it.

With the release of Home, we now have decent quality art of every single mon and all their forms in the same style:

Hey, have you considered using the new artwork from Home? It's high-quality and official.

This looks pretty good!

Very very late happy new year by the way. I found this website again during a nostalgia trip, glad to see it still alive and running :)

I have seen! Unfortunately, since there are no alternate forms, that's still not really good enough for my purposes - I'd have to let the forms look completely different or else remove forms mode from the picker entirely, which I don't really want to do. I'll just wait for Home.

Looks like we've gotten high-quality artwork of all Pokemon! (No alternate forms though.) Search for "Pokemon of the Year" on Google and you'll come across TPC's promotional thing; it's only going to be up for a week though. If you try to view or download the artwork directly from the vote page you'll get an 80 x 80 thumbnail; to get the full artwork just delete the "w80-h80-" string from the URL.

Yup, that's the plan.

I've heard Pokemon Home is going to have art of every single Pokemon in a consistent style. Once it's released, maybe you can use those?

Thanks so much, I've been really looking forward to this!

Hey! I really like the party sprites, do you think that you could have a toggle for the type of image (be it model or sprite) that shows up in the future?
