Hi folks, I’ve created a dropbox shared folder to upload Japanese Promos you’ve created & collaborate with others. We can use this PM thread to communicate & sync privately. It’s important to follow consistent numbering with metadata. Thanks!
So which of these IDs should be the name of the file?
- id: 116-1
pioId: unnumbered-1
enumId: SLOWPOKE_1
name: Slowpoke
nationalPokedexNumber: 79
number: ‘1’
Number should be the file name; i.e. 1.png or 1.jpg
Gotcha. I’ll start exporting them in a reasonable size and send them :). Mine have a few adjustments in attack names (so they don’t clash with other attacks where the effect was completely replaced), and the wording was modified to be as close as WOTC cards, I checked some of these with Jason when in doubt.
Also, looking at the metadata, I think it’s wrong that Munchlax can evolve into hungry Snorlax, its a card with a different name so it shouldn’t be able to participate in the evo line.

In order to change @jamie756 ’s metadata file, better track them on github by selecting the relevant line in “changes” tab then adding comments & suggested changes.

Sounds good, I’ll add comments as soon as I can give them a read while comparing to the renders. I’m about to upload the images, I got most done!

Alright, I have uploaded everything that I got done as of now. I uploaded 2 versions of Ancient Mew (render and English translation).
I am missing the following cards, but I should be able to get through them in a few days:
72 Brock’s Onix
75 Lt. Surge’s Electabuzz
76 Erika’s Dratini
77 Brock’s Mankey
78 Erika’s Bulbasaur
80 Lt. Surge’s Jolteon
81 Blaine’s Growlithe
That aside, I noticed there are a few alt arts that are missing from the metadata (and these are done as well):
Eeevee (fan club)
Flying Pikachu (ana alt art)
Lucky stadium (Several alt arts)
Articuno (blackstar promo alt art -toshinao aoki)
Zapdos (blackstar promo alt art -toshinao aoki)
Moltres (blackstar promo alt art -toshinao aoki)
But, probably there is a bigger omission, there is another flying pikachu that has thunder jolt instead of thundershock as its first attack, which makes it a different card from the other 2 flying pikachu.

On a side note, you will notice on Ivysaur and Bulbasaur (pokemon snap) that Leech Seed has different text, that’s because I took the minor errata into account (compulsory vs optional effect). May be worth making errata versions of the other cards that have translation errors

Hi, I just saw your scans, they look great!
Let’s only use this thread for sharing sensitive content (like passwords and access links), better continue our discussion in the main thread for more visibility and input I’ll share an update there to wrap things up.

I agree - When I created the YAML, I was just going off of existing YAML files for Base- Team Rocket - (For example if you look at the Base Set YAML, for Electabuzz Base set they have Pokemon that werent’ even invented yet as evolving Electabuzz ->Electivire).
I wasn;t sure if they did it this way for Unlimited format reasons so that if you are playing Unlimited format that you could evolve. I didn’t want my work to get rejected for any reason so I was just following what was on the old Base-Team Rocket YAML files.
Also, if you look at the existing YAML files there were other inconsistencies such as the existing Gym Heroes YAML having regular Pokemon evolve into Owner’s Pokemon, but the Gym Challenge YAML not doing this and having only Owner’s → Owner’s, so I went with the more correct Owner’s → Owner’s.
So what steps are we missing to be able to implement these cards into the game?
We are missing me I have to implement each card into the game. The process takes some time and my hands are full at the moment with bug fixing and gen4 sets.
I am doing my best but this stuff is complex and takes time. My initial estimation is 6 months. Will share more when I can.
Oh I see, no worries. there are still a few cards I should get done, and I’m working on the erratas as well. Sounds good, looking forward to see this come through

I uploaded the erratas that I’ve done so far to the dropbox. I got 9-10 left to do, I should be able to wrap up next week. I had to slow down a bit because I got sick, but we should be done really soon

Hi folks, hope everything is well. Unrelated, can someone help me fix the Pokemon Rumble images? It seems they are missing. If you could please curate then add them to dropbox I’ll upload them to the server. TY
I’m trying to get some raw scans to perk them up. I’ll get back to you as soon as I get them!
Hi. I added a folder called “Pokémon Rumble” with some scans in decent resolution and minimally improved by me, so that these are not exactly identical to the place where I downloaded them. I don’t know if they are useful to you, it’s what I can do for now haha.

Thanks a lot, I’ve uploaded them to the server 
Hey @linkinboss how is the progress on errata scans? I can replace them with the originals on the main server if they’re all ready. Cheers
I’m about 90% done, I’m just finishing some cards Jason added to the list. I’m gonna replace the files I had uploaded so far because I made some minor tweaks to increase the resolution of set logos among other things. they should be done by the end of the week. the rumble cards will take me a bit longer because I have to remove dust from the scans before compressing them, but they should be really good.
