Is there any reason to create separate sprites for what are just
different images? If you set the sprite.image to be whatever static
image or animation you like depending on the situation, batch.draw()
will take care of the rest. Or when you say sprites do you mean
images, and not pyglet.sprite.Sprites.
For example, what I'm doing is loading all images and animations
(which are composed from sprite sheets) into an images class and an
animations class. The animations class creates a texture grid from the
sprite sheet and then the animation with a get_animation(), also
transforming it horizontally for the opposite direction. Anyway, then
when the sprite needs a different image I set the sprite.image to what
it needs, either an images.image or an animations.animation.
