I'd suggest to add possibility to choose size the image in this template, because now Melmetal's minisprite stands out.--Rocket Grunt (Report To Me) 19:22, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

Fix the MSP to 48px

That's it. Melmetal was one thing... now the entire Gen VIII is too big for standard purposes. TehPerson (talk) 19:52, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Seconded. It's messing up the spacing on my personal infobox project. I'm all here for keeping the Gi ones at their large size but. Everything else should be standard. Draceon (talk) 01:18, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Suggestion: Use HOME icons, as they seem the most future-proof

It seems like we're not going to be getting a mainline game anytime soon (or ever) with all Pokemon, so MSP will continuously have inconsistent sprites. I suggest we just use the HOME icons, since that's seems as close to universal as we can get. TehPerson (talk) 01:40, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

Agreed. Especially now that all Pokemon from PLA have Home icons, and the PLA icons currently being used are massively inconsistent with the pixel art of the rest of the Pokemon. Gameskiller01 (talk) 12:03, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

Missing images

There appear to be a lot of missing MSP sprites, seemingly at random. I used to have them for a userpage project, and looking back at them now it looks like many have been updated while others have not, seemingly at random. While it seems like most mega evolutions are simply not updated, it also applies to various pokemon in multiple generations. I've included a picture as an example.

I think you mean the fact that we aren't getting new minisprites for every Pokemon since LGPE game. I made a page to keep track with all the sprites that exist here: Minisprites, it's almost finished. We are expecting new minisprites to appear with some HOME update because almost every Pokemon has one in SV style, even Mega Pokemon, but not all of them like Gigantamax forms. If you want to use minisprites on your projects, it's better to use {{ArtP|001}}} template for consistency.--Rocket Grunt 10:36, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
Ahhhh, that makes sense, thank you! I'll look into it. Draceon (talk) 22:05, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
This is really impressive, it's gonna help a lot with my project having all those form differences in one handy table. One thing I noticed, though, is four of the Furfrou sprites are missing from the list, though they do work in the MSP template! I believe you need to add Di, De, and Da to the table. Update me if you find anything else missing, I'm only scanning through normal types tonight! Draceon (talk) 06:41, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
