I have been working on a Pikachu Rig in my spare time, so I thought it might be cool to try and make some animations using it.

I made an Idle animation that plays whenever you aren’t clicking.

Each animation is set to activate once you click on the proper spot.

I also found a fix for the glitch where holding the mouse button over a button causes the animation to glitch out. I did this by using a gate that opens only when the Idle animation is playing and closes when any other animation begins playing.

Here is the clipboard of the Max File:
