A sequel to my first ever mod made for SRB2Kart remade in Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers! This addon adds in a lot of my favorite Pokémon into the game, including all returners and several newcomers as well!
There is a lot of Bug, Dragon, and Water type representation here due to them being my favorite types. This pack is currently my most active one, so expect monthly updates or so!
Now with that said, let's go through the roster! There are currently 14 mons available in the pack, with all of them being rivals with each other (and a few external characters too). Additionally, these mons also have a determined shiny color that plays a shiny animation at the beginning of each round if they're using that specific color (purely cosmetic, no gameplay changes!). Look in the Shiny Gimmick tab for more info!
Please note that the descriptions of these characters may refer to the appearances of their individual appearances in my AU and not their entire species.
Amongst all 100 base game colors, one among them is determined as a "shiny color". Upon at the start of a race, If you are playing as a character from this pack with their Shiny Color selected, a shiny animation with sound will play at the start of each round when the combination is present! Each character has their own Shiny Color in which you can find in their overview! This does not affect the followers.
If the
Please note on the netgames side is a bit buggy and shiny bots may not be synced to other cilents (which means they might not see the shiny bots!). However you can just turn off the shiny bot feature if it ends up being problematic for your server, this will revert all existing shiny bots back to normal on the next round. Players can still use Character + Shiny combos regardless if the feature is turned on or off.
SPINARAK
Returner
Class A, s3-w1
Default Color: Pistachio
Shiny Color: Jawz
It's the star of the pack himself, Spinarak! Notably native to the Johto Region, this specific one came from Spinarak Paradise, an island located a bit far from Unova where his kind would hang out.
And no, he does not wish to evolve as his kart specifically is made out of Everstone.
Rivals: Tatsugiri, Palkia, Black Kyurem
Has a follower form, he is the exact same Spinarak from Stapy's Dark Stone Heroes until v2.1 where he eventually went through a resprite. I do not plan to bring that resprite over to this pack as well.
TATSUGIRI
Returner
Class B, s4-w1
Default Color: Raspberry
Shiny Color: White
Normally Tatsugiri would be hanging out with Dondozo but he decided one day, what if he can command a kart? So he hopped on and started his new journey! He and Spinarak are best friends.
Rivals: Spinarak, Black Kyurem, Hisuian Samurott
Has a follower form
Tatsugiri was actually the first character ever added into this pack, he was just listed as the 2nd character in this overview since Spinarak eventually took the title of being the main character of the pack
SCATTERBUG
Returner
Class A, s3-w2
Default Color: Black
Shiny Color: White
Scatterbug believes that if she races for long enough, she'll evolve. However, this is not true but please don't tell her.
Which Vivillon form will she become though?
Rivals: Spinarak, Yanma, Salamence
SALAMENCE
Returner
Class F, s7-w5
Default Color: Cerulean
Shiny Color: Pistachio
He wondered why everyone left the moment he made it into SRB2Kart, maybe they weren't ready to face against his intimidation? But now he found his way here, he could intimidate the weak just for fun (notably Scatterbug)
He won't stop yelling at everyone else in here all the time after he saw that he can go to Champions now...
Rivals: Garchomp, Tatsugiri, Spinarak
Salamence was actually finished in SRB2Kart, but was long delayed since Ring Racers released before I eventually added him in, given his lore description
YANMA
Returner
Class C, s9-w3
Default Color: Scarlet
Shiny Color: Sapphire
Currently practicing on how to drive a kart, although he used to fly back in the SRB2Kart days. He believes that his Speed Boost ability could help drive his kart faster. He was brought over here by his good friend, Spinarak.
Though driving that kart gave him extra weight though, but he has gotten a hang of it from the old times where he used to carry Spinarak around. He really can't hang out with his friends often since he has to do his job of being a cheap flying taxi, but has been earning a lot of pokedollars since (especially from Spinarak).
Rivals: Spinarak, Tatsugiri, Garchomp
Has a follower form
SAMUROTT
Returner
Class G, s3-w9
Default Color: Jet
Shiny Color: Teal
The water starter from the Unova Region was tired of being severally outclassed by an evil distant past variation of himself so he decided to take a new job, become a driver just like everyone else.
He figured he can replicate his Hisuian countpart's acts by setting up Bananas and Orbinauts as entry hazards. (it works every time)
Rivals: Tatsugiri, Spinarak, Hisuian Samurott
SUNKERN
Newcomer
Class A, s1-w1
Default Color: Olive
Shiny Color: Royal
Notably the weakest pokemon to ever exist, having 30 in every one of her base stats. Despite this, she did outstanding at the Pokéathlon, even besting against literal gods!
She heard that consuming every last ring would increase her performance stats. No chlorophyll needed!
Rivals: Spinarak, Yanma, Koraidon
GARCHOMP
Newcomer
Class F, s8-w6
Default Color: Rust
Shiny Color: Grey
He saw that his archrival Salamence joined in, so he decided to take part of the competition as well. The Rough Skin + Rocky Helmet combo is NOT something you'd want to bump into and he happens to use that exact combo!
Rivals: Salamence, Palkia, Tatsugiri
KORAIDON
Newcomer
Class I, s7-w7
Default Color: Red
Shiny Color: Black
Everyone's favorite sandwhich-loving bike lizard makes his way on the track! But why is he in a kart, can't he just be in his Sprinting Build? Oh right, I told that if he finishes in first while driving a kart he'll win a whole sandwhich.
Ever wondered what it was like to be hit by a Collision Course coming from him? It's the same as him with the Invincibility and Grow effects coming at you at 999% speed.
Rivals: Black Kyurem, Palkia, Sunkern
PALKIA
Newcomer
Class G, s2-w9
Default Color: Thistle
Shiny Color: Taffy
Wait what's a literal god of space doing here on the track!? Did he somehow open a spacial rift and decided to join in on the competition? Without his Lustrous Globe, he doesn't have the perfect speed stat but can consume rings to help remind him of his Origin Form's speed.
Rivals: Tatsugiri, Garchomp, Black Kyurem
ARIADOS
Newcomer
Class D, s2-w5
Default Color: Ketchup
Shiny Color: Byzantium
Was once assumed to be the same Spinarak was actually discovered to be an entirely different Spinarak. This one had his Everstone destroyed but he didn't mind the evolution. Sometimes Spinarak himself would hang out with him to avoid confusion from others and sometimes they would race against each other as well.
Rivals: Spinarak, Yanma, Sunkern
MEGA TATSUGIRI
Newcomer
Class B, s4-w1
Default Color: Raspberry
Shiny Color: White
After going to Hyperspace Lumiose, Tatsugiri managed to get his hands on a particular Mega Stone known as the "Tatsugirinite", which granted him the ability to Mega Evolve.
Instead of the usual kart everyone rides on, he instead rides ontop of a dish he created from Mega Evolution. The Curly and Stretchy form Tatsugiris beside him are actually copies he made to help aid him into the race!
Rivals: Spinarak, Garchomp, Salamence
BLACK KYUREM
Newcomer
Class H, s6-w7
Default Color: Ultramarine
Shiny Color: Periwinkle
The embodiment of pure evil. After capturing Zekrom (a very large one specifically) and fusing with him, he set out a goal to take over Unova for himself by first coating the entire region in an endless Blizzard. He started an evil organization of his own, replacing Team Plasma in the process. One day he found himself on a kart and wondered if there's any other places he can freeze and claim?
Black Kyurem is visually a LOT more bigger than everyone else in the pack, so he may be a challenge to drive as. You might want to adjust your
Rivals: Hisuian Samurott, Tatsugiri, Spinarak
HISUIAN SAMUROTT
Newcomer
Class B, s5-w3
Default Color: Maroon
Shiny Color: White
A pure evil deranged regional variant of Samurott that was brought back from the ancient Hisui into the present time by Kyurem himself. He serves Kyurem as his right-hand man to help achieve his goal of taking over Unova.
Normally he was sent out to strike anyone with his jagged seamitars and force them to join his boss' evil organization, but one day he found his do-gooder counterpart trying to imitate his signature move on a kart, so he decided to hop on a kart on his own and show who really is the better Samurott form.
Rivals: Unovan Samurott, Black Kyurem, Spinarak
In this mod, A difference between Unovan Samurott and himself is that he uses his shell armor as the recolorable parts (mostly to resemble his shiny differences).
There is a lot of Bug, Dragon, and Water type representation here due to them being my favorite types. This pack is currently my most active one, so expect monthly updates or so!
Now with that said, let's go through the roster! There are currently 14 mons available in the pack, with all of them being rivals with each other (and a few external characters too).

Each character has their own Shiny Color in which you can find in their overview! This does not affect the followers.
If the
ssp_shinies toggle is turned enabled which is already On by default, Bots can also spawn as shiny with a 1 in 10 chance, this effect stays until the bot is eliminated. This extends from Grand Prix, Match Races, to even Netgames as well!Please note on the netgames side is a bit buggy and shiny bots may not be synced to other cilents (which means they might not see the shiny bots!). However you can just turn off the shiny bot feature if it ends up being problematic for your server, this will revert all existing shiny bots back to normal on the next round. Players can still use Character + Shiny combos regardless if the feature is turned on or off.
So you want one of your characters to have a chance of becoming shiny as well? Take this example piece of code and put into your own pack's lua! Just enter in your skin's name and what color to determine as their shiny, and test it out! Here's an example script below which you can copy and edit for your own pack:
String Spit Pack must be loaded in order for the shiny script to actually work, the packs can be loaded in any order. I heavily recommend you playtesting it out first to make sure the shiny effect actually works on your character. You can even have multiple entries in the same script as well! Custom color shinies could probably work with this as well but should be in the same pack your custom character is in.
Please do not take "spinaraklabsShinies.lua" that is included within String Spit Pack for your own pack, you may only take the example code I just provided here.
External Addon Shiny Support Example:
addHook("MapLoad", function(map)
// Check if String Spit Pack is loaded
if not (spinaraklabsShinyChecks) then
rawset(_G, "spinaraklabsShinyChecks", {})
end
// Add in external shinies here
spinaraklabsShinyChecks["stapy"] = { color = SKINCOLOR_PISTACHIO }
end)String Spit Pack must be loaded in order for the shiny script to actually work, the packs can be loaded in any order.
