EDIT: Okay, I have now finished a lot from Night Slash. The only big thing left is coding in the mist effect.
I basically have a big mist sprite (512x152), which has got the + in its center. What I want to do that the mist sprite moves slowly to a side, but without seeing that the sprite is cut off. In other words, I'm trying to use tiling outside of stage creation. What should I do?

I can think of two ways to get the job done on that one:

1. If you're using a helper for the mist, and the helper IS the mist that's moving, you summon multiple helpers at the same time for the mist depending on how fast you want it to go, spreadding them out using "pos". Then you set the velocity of each one so that they all move in unison, and check to see if they're linked together properly. You may want to mess around with the positions a bit as it can get fiddly, but don't copy this code without editing part of it for your preference.

Code:

[State Helper]
type = Helper
trigger1 = animelem = 3
stateno = 0000
name = "Mist"
helpertype = Normal
pos = 0,0
postype = back
facing = 1
ownpal = 1
ignorehitpause = 1

[State Helper]
type = Helper
trigger1 = animelem = 3
stateno = 0000
name = "Mist"
helpertype = Normal
pos = -512,0
postype = back
facing = 1
ownpal = 1
ignorehitpause = 1

[State Helper]
type = Helper
trigger1 = animelem = 3
stateno = 0000
name = "Mist"
helpertype = Normal
pos = 512,0
postype = back
facing = 1
ownpal = 1
ignorehitpause = 1

2. If the helper spawns Explods of mist, then you have this one helper summon multiple Explods at the same time for the mist in the same way as Helper, but using "Vel" to set the velocities of the Explod.

Code:

[State Explod]
type = Explod
trigger1 = animelem = 3
anim = 0000
pos = 0,0
postype = back
facing = 0
vel = 4,0
sprpriority = 5

[State Explod]
type = Explod
trigger1 = animelem = 3
anim = 0000
pos = -512,0
postype = back
facing = 0
vel = 4,0
sprpriority = 5

[State Explod]
type = Explod
trigger1 = animelem = 3
anim = 0000
pos = 512,0
postype = back
facing = 0
vel = 4,0
sprpriority = 5

Looks good, but the curved area that they're standing on is a little questionable. Primarily: What is it? LOL. The background is too small for the stage too.

That's the intro to Diamond and Pearl, if my memory serves me correctly.

If it's not that, then it's Platinum.

P.S. Are you releasing these anywhere? If not, please send them to me via PM so I can add them to the game.

You know, there's a "Miss" in this pokemon's name. It must have parents, so I wonder where the Mr and Mrs are?

I have already started to work on Flareon, without finishing Togetic.
Thankfully, Flareon is easier to do, so I guess I'll finish Flareon first.
Quick Attack and Flame Thrower are already finished.
Flare Blitz is almost finished, and the only problem I have it that the helper faces the wrong direction when used by Player 2 (it looks fine when Player 1 uses it).
So only Fire Blast is left. Theoritically, I can code that move, but I really need a hi-res fiery 大 first, in order to be truly Fire Blast. I hope somebody will help me there a bit soon-ish...

I thought you've given up on Togepi for Togetic, as it has better stats total in exchange for less animations.
