This is the list of Pokémon battle animations by index number in Generation I games.
List
These are the available battle animations:
- From 0x00 (0) to 0x55 (85), there are some new objects created for the purposes of each animation (such as fire, water, electricity, etc.) Almost all of them are in black and white, except the Poké Ball-related ones.
- From 0xD8 (216) to 0xFE (254), there are some special effects that are applied to either or both Pokémon in battle, or to the whole screen. They often share the same color palettes as the Pokémon affected (for instance, a blue Pokémon uses blue effects).
