Move Animation Photosensitivity Enhancements

Browse source 
This changes the animations for various vanilla moves with the aim of reducing photosensitive reactions. KEP is going to chiefly be played on emulators, and thus players will experience flashing that is meant to be dimmed by a Game Boy screen. This is dangerous, so here we are.

Many moves have been given black screens which 1) Look cool as fuck, Thunderbolt and Blizzard are really nice and 2) bypass flashing. Others have had their flashing reduced or outright removed.

Blizzard has been given special treatment, having the second part of its animation given an Ice Rise clip like Ice Beam. This, coupled with the darkness, looks ace.

Changed moves include:
Body Slam, Glare, Dazzling Gleam (oops), Disable, Blizzard, BubbleBeam, Confusion, Dream Eater, Explosion, Guillotine, Hyper Beam, Mega Kick, Mega Punch, Psychic, Reflect, Rock Slide, Selfdestruct, Spore, and Thunderbolt;

; RBY has a lot of animations designed for the natural cover of the non-backlit Game Boy.
; When played on an emulator, these animations will trigger potentially dangerous medical reactions from photosensitive individuals (like me!), such as dizziness or even seizures.
; For the purposes of KEP, I've replaced much of these animations with just...better animations, that don't need flashing.
; Specifically, I checked off the 3DS VC's "dimmed out" moves, and replaced them with better animations;
; Blizzard, BubbleBeam, Confusion, Dream Eater, Explosion, Guillotine, Hyper Beam, Mega Kick, Mega Punch, Psychic, Reflect, Rock Slide, Selfdestruct, Spore, and Thunderbolt
; I have also edited Body Slam, Glare, and Disable.
