It “REALLY” depends on what your needs for animation are. There are multiple solutions in this case.
The most “simplest” form of animation is basically this:
However, you can also have “very complex” animations. Some examples being list based animations, or variable based animations.Though you can use custom blocks to make complex code to make your animations scripts more simple.
For example, you could have this

when flag clicked
forever
next costume
wait (0.25) seconds
end

How do you animate a character and make an animation
Try to make a storyboard first to plan what it gonna look like and what it gonna do. Then make the animation as costumes in scratch editor. Remember! Scratch does 30 frames per frame. Which means 30 drawings for one second. Then just add this script
If you want to do less fps (for example 12) do this:
when green flag clicked
switch costume to [1 v]
repeat (frame count)
next costume
end
If you want to do less fps (for example 12) do this:
when green flag clicked
set [fps v] to [12]
switch costume to [1 v]
repeat (frame count)
wait ((1) / (fps)) secs
next costume
end
