'''Sprite compression''' is the means in Generation I for where pure graphics data is compressed into a Pokémon or Trainer sprite. The sprite is decompressed again using [[Sprite decompression (Generation I)|the sprite decompression routine]] and allocates use of SRAM bank 0/"unbanked" SRAM. While the source compressor code is not in the ROMs; there are a few rules for a compressed sprite:
*The image to compress is usually a maximum of 56x56 pixels. Other Pokémon sprites can be 32x32, 40x40 or 48x48.
