Dimitri because I don't want to have to put in the effort to script another great big thing like that.
It might seem like an edit from Epona, but it would be quite a bit more than that.
And also if I were to do Dimitri I'd have to do Moosh and the kanagaroo which I can't seem to remember the name of, and scripting 3 animal partners does not sound like a great idea.
I'm not scripting any bosses, if you want custom bosses you'll have to script your own or get someone else to write them.
And they are... ish.
They don't fit exactly, but I haven't run into any problems re-colouring LA tiles to fit the Oracles palette so far.

LOL , He means that when you save the picture you provided in your post and you try to rip it in the grabber , you can't rip it properly because there's color loss due to the picture being a JPEG format.
.GIF , and .PNG are the best to save.

So I'll put all of the items here, and can a few people just go through the list and tick off the ones they'd definately want?
The ones in Green are ones that I'd definately have, and Red are the ones I wouldn't have. A lot of the red ones are just because I don't like them.
I want to know what you think about the black ones mostly, but I'm open to opinions on all of them though.
Default:
- Swords - Surprisingly enough
- Scrolls - Spin scroll would be default and invisible
- Scroll related rings
- Wealth Medals - Shops will be scripted, and these are pretty lame anyway
- Stone of Agony
- Wallets - Not exactly. I'm planning on having the colour of the rupee symbol on the passive change when you get a wallet upgrade.
- Quivers - Like the GB games, I'd just have quiver upgrades not be shown in the subscreen although obviously you would still be able to pick up arrow capacity upgrades
- Bomb Bags - Same as with the quivers
- Bracelets
- Shields - One of either scripted or normal
- Defence Rings - Or we could have the tunics like in the Fort Knights?
- Flippers - Tunics again maybe?
- Amulet - Tunics?
- Ladder
- Raft
- Boots
- Boomerang - With added grass-cutting capacity!
- Bombs
- Super Bombs - These are rubbish, and the bombchus make a much nicer replacement
- Bow
- Candle - Would be replaced with the Ember seeds
- Whistle
- Bait
- Letter
- Potions - Look at the next section before you jump to conclusions on this one!
- Wand - Might be able to set up like the LA wand which can power through ice combos
- Book
- Lens
- Hookshot
- Hammer
- Feather
- God Spells
- Rod of Seasons
- Harp of Ages
- Cape
- Shovel
- Ember Seeds - Replacing the candle
- Pegasus Boots
- Bombchus
- GB-style potion - that kicks in when you die
- Animal partners
- Magnetic Gloves
- Cane of Somaria
- Guardian Acorn and Piece of Power
- Slingshot - It'd pretty much be a replacement to the bow
- Tunics
- Scripted active shield - One of either scripted or normal
- Biggoron's Sword
I think I might set up two passives, one with magic and one without.

I'll have a think about how I could include both.
I wasn't looking for minigames though, no.
I don't see why a tileset should include minigames.
Default:
- Scrolls -> add in the others for more combat fun Hrm ok. I wasn't going to have these, but they might fit in ok as ring sprites
- Stone of Agony -> don't bother Yeah, I don't much like this either
- Quivers -> I would like to see a Quiver since we see the seed satchel too I'll think about an option for both
- Bracelets -> sure Yeah ok
- Boomerang -> yay! and one that it directable oO Ooh, level 2 boomerang. I hadn't thought of that
- Super Bombs -> go for Bombflowers, I'd like them I don't really want to do bomb flowers
- Bow -> please I'll have a think
- Candle -> Lantern What's a lantern likely to be like?
- Bait -> Scent Seeds Eh... I don't think I want to do that really
- Letter -> why not. Because we won't have the potions
- Slingshot -> Bow Oh, so bow over slingshot
- Tunics Hrm...
- Scripted active shield -> scripted. Does sound like a better idea really
- Biggoron's Sword -> pretty cool. Maybe
I cut it out to show the ones that are different from what I thought.
My responses in bold.
Well, it wouldn't be an entirely new tileset because I have already done a lot of work on it.
Did you decide to go for one tileset or two seperate ones in the end?
And it'd be more scripted items than bosses, I don't really fancy doing bosses for a tileset.
I'd be happy to say, I do all the dungeon palettes and you do all the overworld ones or something though.

the kanagaroo which I can't seem to remember the name of
The kangaroo's name is Ricky. That used to annoy me, especially when my siblings laughed about it.
And I didn't really like Oracle of Seasons, and I never finished Oracle of Ages, so I can't really offer anything constructive here.

Well, they're not so much tilesets as they are starter kits, in a way. Everything (except scripted bosses, obviously) would be set up beforehand and downloaded as a quest, so that authors only need to place the tiles and stuff, and the game will be ready to go
And yes, I did go for multiple tilesets (3 in fact), simply because of ZQuest's palette limitations. But, it's not beyond me to compress them into one comprehensive tileset, if I need to

I'd be a lot happier were it one tileset rather than 3 though.
Could I have a look at what you have so far?

Oh, and give us the 'L' button even if it's not pretty GB-ish. Talking to NPC's by using it was too cool . Or buying items. Or reading signs. Woohoo.
Can't await your tileset xX.
So long, Shiek.
Edit: the lantern: just the candle, with the lantern sprite of ALttP, maybe Gamboyfied style

Default:
- Bracelets - GBstyle power bracelets! lol, j/k unless you changed your mind about scripting them, which I doubt you have. As far as keeping the LOZstyle bracelets in, sure, why not.
- Defence Rings - I think the tunics idea is better.
- Flippers - I prefer the actual flippers item.
- Amulet - I don't really remember what this item did, so no preference I guess.
- Bow - maybe, I actually prefer the Slingshot, see note below
- Candle - Would be replaced with the Ember seeds. Hmmm, it seems kind of weird to have one kind of seeds but not any other. What about replacing with Magic Powder instead?
- Whistle - Not if it is LOZstyle. I can't really think of a feasible way to include it as a GBstyle ocarina/flute at the moment...
- Wand/Book - Might be able to set up like the LA wand which can power through ice combos. Yeah, I would say have the book as an invisible item so that the wand acts like the LA wand.
- Hammer - I would say no...
- Harp of Ages - If you are including Rod of Seasons, might as well include this too.
- Ember Seeds - Again, I would suggest using Magic Powder, unless you really like the Ember Seeds for some reason.
- Scripted active shield - scripted
