Hello, im just wondering is there a possibility of combining two separate sprites into one. What Im trying to do is to edit the squire sprite and changing pallete #0 with a different sprite. So that I can put a customize unique sprite but retain the vanilla sprite for the enemies.
Thanks in advance for any information on this.
No, that isn't even remotely how that works.
Oh okay thank you so much for the response

The key is the word "palette", which is talking specifically about the colors of the sprite. The Squire sprite has, well, one sprite, with up to 8 palettes, or recolors. If you were changing the sprite, it wouldn't be the Squire sprite anymore lol.
If you were clever, you could hypothetically utilize less than the 16 colors available to each palette, and have unused colors be duplicates (probably black/transparent) in one palette while being a unique color in another, thus looking like the next palette was more than just a recolor, but that takes a lot of technique that would be a challenge for even our best spriters. Overall, the answer to your question is indeed "no".

Thank you so much for the reply and information sir. I guess I will just change the sprite of a unique character.
Sir

Yeah, although you'll likely have to use the "Expand ISO" function first. After that, follow the guides for adding new unique characters. I'll link a few below.
