I didn't see this suggested and i yet to know if it is possible or already implemented, but is there a way to create your own custom skin, similar to minecraft, but i even remember a pokemon hack program that allows you the change the sprite of your character, is there any possiblity of implementing a feature that allows you to edit your own sprite?

Yup! There's already people, like me, who're playing as their own characters or canon characters. I'm not sure exactly on how to make the sprite, but it has to be grided properly before you apply it. Grided like this:

You already can change your sprite by formatting them into an .xnb file, and placing that .xnb file in Poke3D Folder > Pokemon > Content > Textures > NPC

Then you go to Poke3D Folder > Pokemon > Save > the name of your file or Character, and open the "Player.dat" file in Word or Notepad (or Notepad ++) and scroll down to where it says "Skin". You'll replace whatever is next to "Skin", with the name of the .xnb file you added before.

so for example in Player.dat, you might have

"skin|Red"

you'll replace "Red", with whatever your .xnb file is called. So if you named your .xnb file "Poophead", you'll put

"skin|Poophead" without quotation marks, obviously.

Oh and of course be doing all of this while logged out of Poke3D.

There is no "automatic" feature for it
as whitney said thats how to open it
If you want to make your own you will need some of these

Here's the program that puts various image files into the XNB format: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xnbbuilder/

For the program to install properly, make sure you have its required components installed (it'll tell you which stuff it needs installed before IT installs).

Use that once you've made your sprite and have it grided properly like the image I put above. :3

FOR GRIDING: If you want to grid the image right, install a program like PAINT.NET (which is what I use) and install the griding add-on. You'll open your sprite sheet that you made, in PAINT.NET, and with the griding add-on, you'll put it at ...I believe 32x32. You can try to align it to the image I put above (of Red), by making a second layer of the Red sprite sheet. ORRR, if you suck at griding them properly (like me) you can get someone kind enough to do it for you. Shou is a pretty cool dude who, if he has time, might do it.

GRID MAKER PLUGIN/ADDON: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/1964-grid-maker-plugin-v20/

Put the grid plugin/addon in the "effects" folder wherever you have PAINT.NET installed. Usually will be Program Files.

Here is the grid an a sprite sheet for you. Don't forget you have to make the white background transparent through use of a program like Gimp. I have no idea if paint has that option.

Paint does, through the "Magic wand" tool, though it's tricky.

Eh. With Gimp I just click the bucket, click the dropdown and select "Transparent." Very easy.
