This causes only about 1/3 of the model to import, however what is imported seems to be weighted almost perfectly. I hope you can fix these Scripts soon RTB, keep up the good work. I haven't tried the script with XY models as I don't have the XY BCHs.

Yeah, that would be because the supposed "vertex flags" I found earlier aren't exactly what they're supposed to be -- two models with the same flags have different setups for some reason. I'll continue researching that, hopefully I can finally figure that out soon and have a flawless importer.

I did fix Mega Lopunny, though, that one will now import correctly if you re-download the script. Lopunny itself doesn't work because of a different reason that I'll also have to look into fixing (for both its X/Y and OR/AS models). Fix one thing, break three others, it seems...

(EDIT: Aaaand I speak too soon, by rewriting some arguably-sloppy parts of the script, I got Lopunny to import correctly now.)
(EDIT 2: And fixed the Cosplay Pikachus now, too.)

1. Perhaps in the next batch, I don't have them planned for the current double-batch.
2. Well, the textures are mostly flat-shaded, so it might not actually be too hard to do so. Using the "shadow maps" / "2" textures as an inverse on the main textures should help cut down the shading, making it easier to edit for that kind of thing.

With just a steady hand and copy of Inkscape or even the path tool in Photoshop you could trace over the shapes and fill them in with the matching colours, also get much higher resolution textures if you want to remake the whole thing.

Though, then you have to deal with the baked-in shadows, either remove them entirely and let your renderer deal with the model's lighting or bake in your own more realistic AO map for a better (and again, high res) result. Finally, there's also parts that use dark lines to define features on the mesh - like Squirtle's shell, Gardevoir's hair, or most Pokemon's eyes and mouths - that you'd have to repaint them with less stark lines or go in and make large geometry edits so that the features aren't lost completely.

Then that would go back to what I had mentioned in an earlier post about how to remove it.
