Create your own theme

Introduction

On this tutorial we will see how to create your own theme for iPokeGO.

As you know, with v2.5, iPokeGO introduce a brand new functionality : Theming. With this, you can easily change Pokemon annotation by customs images. If you want to create your custom pack just follow following steps !

Preparation

• Create a new folder called "theme_YOURTHEMENAME", the "theme_" prefix is very important !
• On this folder, create a new file called "meta.json", it will contain all informations about your theme, here is a template for this file :

  {
	"id": "theme_IdOfYourTheme",
	"name": "Your theme name",
	"author": "Your name",
	"version": "1.0",
	"release_date": "09/12/2016",
	"short_description": "Short description of your theme"
}

• Still in the same folder, add the theme icon and name it "icon" (Warning ! your icon must be a PNG !).
• Create a new folder named "images", it will contain all Pokemon images.
• At this point, your theme must looks like this :

• To create Pokemon image, name it "IdOfPokemon.png", for example, if you want to create a custom annotation for "Porygon", name your image : "137.png" (to find id of Pokemon, use this website). Furthermore, your image must have a resolution of 90x90px.

• When you added all your images, just ZIP your root folder ("theme_YOURTHEMENAME").

• Congratulation ! Your theme is now ready 👍
