Title: Neead a team for a Pokemon Game
Post by: forgetaboutit on August 15, 2007, 10:28:37 PM
I need some peoples that are interessed in working in a pokemon game. What I need now is:
Someone that can help with the characters and chipsets
Someone that turn sketches into sprites. (like, I ll make the sketches and someone will make a sprite of them)
Someone that can help with events (I dont need help with the battle system, cause I already made it, but I may need help with the menu and such)
Someone that can make the maps (not the chipsets)
And someone to help with the story, the names of the pokemons, towns, and the name of the game.
If you can do any of those things, post here and add my MSN, lucas_irineu@hotmail.com . It will be a big help.
Thanks for reading!

*raises hand*

I'm involving myself in a lot of pkmn projects lately...


Like editing some music for that one Pokemon MMORPG....



Question:

For the character sprites, what are you using?


Like:
Blue, Red, Yellow

Gold, Silver

Crystal,

Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald

Fire Red, Leaf Green,

Diamond, Pearl?

I like the sprites for diamond pearl...  as well as the battle images....

Why do you need help with Pokemon's names? Are they strangely translated to your language or something?
But I am willing to help if you are going to introduce some of your own creations or something.
But chipsets and musik or complicated coding just isn't my best side.

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 16, 2007, 02:26:16 PM
I think he was trying to say he's making up some new pokemon.

By myself, second row.

I was refering to his own pokemon here but either way.

But I'd say that we should go with the diamond/pearl sprites even though I'm not directly involved in this project in any way. They look best but I'm not sure about the maps and such, it might be a bit complicating.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 16, 2007, 05:37:40 PM
I'd suggest the same with the diamond/pearl sprites.

As with the chipsets, I'd suggest FR/LG or R/S/E.

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 16, 2007, 07:28:26 PM
THIS IS FOR REFERENCE!!  (Lucas and I chatted about this today)



First town's name:

PINECREST
The winds of the mountain will aid you in your journey!


Professor:

Prof. Palm

i wouldnt mind being part of the team but im kind of busey right now working on 2 games right now but if ever need somemore help just send me a message
Title:
Post by: SC3K on August 17, 2007, 02:15:44 PM
I could help with the maps, story, and events, although I don't think  I'd be able to convert the sketches into pokemon.  Might be fun to try, though.

ORIGINAL POST:
Well, if you want Lucas, I can begin taking some sprite sheets and changing them into charsets...


Oh. For the one I only have to fix that current one I have. Sweet!


NEW POST:
I have D/P Male Hero, D/P Female Hero, and a version Prof. Palm done.

Here is my unfinished version (i have to place him in the charset, and move some things around--and I want you to give a yes/no to whether you like him)

What do you think?  I think it came out well for how long I spent on it.  (About an hour)

also, I suggest going here for graphics:

Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 17, 2007, 10:14:50 PM
hm... I'll try to make it so his hair isn't as wide.  (I used the head from the Gentleman sprite to make it.  Then recolored it and some other things...)

I put some other sprites into a charset with what I had of Prof. Palm, but I'm on the wrong computer to attacht it. *sigh*
When i get on that computer, I'll post it.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 18, 2007, 12:26:12 AM
Is this good?
(this also has some other characters...)

This is ready to be placed in Rpg Maker if you want to try it out.  I'll put two more characters on it tomorrow.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 18, 2007, 06:23:12 AM
Looks great. Like his moustache.
I will try to do the sprites for the pkmns when I get the pictures again unless you want to.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 18, 2007, 09:50:19 PM
I'd say the main rival should be the Prof.'s grandson like always.

We should do something special to get your first.  Like how in R/S/E where Prof. Birch was being chased by that wild Pokemon.

Hm... how about Prof. Palm is being cornered by a wild "____".  His bag is laying off to the side.  He yells for you to grab one of three pokeballs laying on the ground next to the bag.

I think the bad guys being part of the storyline is a great way to make the storyline better.

Hm...  we should come up with a name for the Team that matches their evil plans.  (Examples being Magma -> Raising Groudon    Aqua-> Raising Kyroge)
Title:
Post by: redwallmax on August 19, 2007, 01:36:40 AM
so for a special feature i was thinking that tournaments should be a bigger part of the game.....like winning special pokemon from them would be fun and if you want to give me sum sketches ill try and sprite them for you
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 19, 2007, 01:39:50 AM
Here's a screen of my somewhat finished Chipset.  I have the entire lower layer done.  Now for the top layer!  (Some of the things are in the top layer, just not may.  For example, some parts of the buildings had to be top layer things)
Title:
Post by: SC3K on August 19, 2007, 01:42:17 AM
Why not just have the protagonist get his pokemon the classic way? In otherwords, on his birthday he goes to see Professor Palm and choose from the three. However, I think this could be made more interesting if perhaps the team of the game attacks the town on his birthday, maybe kidnapping a loved one or even killing one. This would certainly give the hero a motive for his pokemon journey. However, why he would have to gather the eight badges to accomplish this is a mystery. Perhaps they have kidnapped someone in ransom for the badges or something, I dunno.

Post by: aboutasoandthis on August 19, 2007, 02:04:11 AM
Are you guys sure you want to create your own sprites? Including genders, shinies, tiny menu, and new pokes that's over 5,400 sprites.

I've found a nice site with every single Diamond/Pearl sprite. Unlike Serebii, you can easily copy/paste these. I hope it helps.

http://pokemon.marriland.com/diamond_pearl

That's a very pretty screen AFL.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 19, 2007, 06:03:42 AM
We will use the D/P sprites from the Spriters resources, got every last of them there so that's no problem at all.(Already downloaded them so...)

But yeah 493 pokemon front and back poses, I'm not sure if I wanna add these new gender-sprites as well or the shinies but that's up to Lucas.
But it's great that the site got every pokemon's stats and attacks will probably make things easier when it comes down to those stuff. So that's great.

But about us making custom stuff was refered to the custom pokemon's we wanted to add in the game, but those will try to match the D/P sprites.

I will cover the menu sprites at least, shouldn't be to hard. And I can make most battle sprites. But I don't think I would be able to make the back poses, they always seem so different in the way they stand...

I Like Transforming sketches to 2d Pixel art.
Nothing set in stone right now, But I can probably help out reguardless.
Title:
Post by: aboutasoandthis on August 19, 2007, 01:24:30 PM
To be honest, I don't like them. They look too much like Sudowoodo (SP?). The starters should look more like animals, preferably ones that weren't done before.

Based on what you've done, how about a kangaroo or something?
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 19, 2007, 02:28:23 PM
Well there is alreayd a kangaroo, and it's a grass type as well. Breloom, the evolvement of Shroomish, a mushroom kangaroo with a hat on his head. Grass-Fighting type.

I like the idea with the treant-tree. Sodowudo(sp...) was a rock type after all.
Title:
Post by: aboutasoandthis on August 19, 2007, 03:25:30 PM
Well whaddaya know? There is a grass kangaroo! lol

Forgot about Kangaskan too.

Would you mind if I tried to make it? I haven't really sprited in a while, plus I'm bored.

I've managed to make a basic outline of the little guy. I made the stems a little bigger. What do you think?

Post by: Vlad Shadeu on August 19, 2007, 06:46:02 PM
if you need any help, call the nerd with the obsession with the gastly trio (me)

How do you get the 1st pokemon?

How about, just for ONCE IN THE HISTORY OF ALL POKEMON GAMES (or at least for all i know) you get them the NORMAL WAY! just go to Prof. Palms office and pick one out. nice change of pace. if you want to make it fancy, set a battle with the opposing team right out side the door and after their defeat they also rescue the other starters of the other people that the team stole from, which is a good place to meet rival/friends etc.

Does the bad guys (like team rocket or team magma) are a important part of the game, like in R/S/E or they are just evil trainers, that doesnt afect the plot too much, like R/B/Y?

make them important!

Whats the name of the bad guys team?

Ideas for this:
Team Psycho. it''ll be interesting to see another non-primary-elemental team like galactic and rocket without the space theme

Team Shinebright: normal types. wow. this'll be cool. having a team using pokemon we usually think of in a good way, like chansey and clefable. this ideas actually kind of funny. and, Sycther can learn False Swipe, a good Hunting move. you should hand one of those boys over to the main antagonists

Team Spook:I like ghosts. heck, if there were an evil team like this, i would join. ghost pokemon are excellent for hunting out pokemon, since they have full immunity to some of the more common types, so this would likely be a more successful team

Who is the main rival?

the clasic boy-related-to-the-prof seems a tad too cliche, but it might work. or you could do the jesse-james-thing, where a small group of members from the opposing team are your rivals. i reccomend choice 2

Could someone answer those questions?

i can. or at least i can try

if you find this enough help, or just wanna be nice, make the character from the hero 4 file on the top right into a gym leader or other character named Vlad who uses Ghosts. Please? i reccomend Gengar, Mismagius (from D/P) Sableye, a Haunter, and a Weavile (as a little surprise at the end) preferably high level. i would just love it if you did this for me.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 19, 2007, 07:24:55 PM
Hmm, quite intresting actually. But just getting the pokemon in the start would be like in R/B/Y where you just get one to help the professor and his niece to complete the pokedex.
 
And the idea of someone stealing the pokemon's was used in S/G/C actually although not a Team but the rival.

And for the teams, well they are supposed to look evil... And an evil man with a Happiny/Chansey/Blitzey wouldn't look that evil now would he? Pretty good idea though.

And even though I can't speak for Lucas or anyone else. But we will not use the RTP charsets, but I bet we could put you in there somewhere if you just post a charset in D/P style.

And yes, I would say that Breloom is a kangaroo, can't you see it? The slim humanoid built, the long bent tail, the muscular legs and the small hands simply laying at its belly. It looks like a kangaroo to me and learn a lot of fighting kicks.

Do not steal.  I spent 2 days on this.  :x



Only for Lucas.  If you want to use it, please pm me, or e-mail me at joeafl@verizon.net


EDIT:  Hm... I actually like this idea:

Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 20, 2007, 03:53:44 AM
Yeah ghost types would be enough evil for our team. Having a bad guy with a bunch of Gengars ect running around putting people to sleep while they do their mischief.
But I agree on the name, Team spook doesn't sound that evil to me. Just sounds like a bunch of kids going around and scaring people.
Something more ghostly like team phantom would fit better.

And that's an incredible chipset AFL, godlike.

And Mismagius is the evolvement of Misdreavus so it really is from D/P.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 20, 2007, 05:57:16 AM
And I had a go with the battlesprite as well, I think it turned out ok, maybe it sesembles Oddish to much though.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 20, 2007, 02:23:04 PM
Wow.  Nice job Prpl_mage.

Also with the chipset, remember all I did was put it into the chipset, I didn't make the graphics.  ;)

Although, I did have to edit a few things in there.  (auto-tile things like the water and the road)

EDIT:

What do you think?  It my first "combine a whole bunch of different things to make something new" image.  I mixed a few different bird pokemon, and then recolored it with some of the basic colors from a Torchic.  And the fire is from the G/S/C fire starter I can't spell the name of.
http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa18/aforgottenlegend/Fire_pokemon.png

Here's another example of the chipset...
http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa18/aforgottenlegend/Anotherexample.png

I have a town I made (actually, its the one in the screenshot).  I want to show it to you (Lucas).

When you enter the lab you will realise that there is no proffesor in there and you exit it again. When you go back to where the guy used to stand Prof.Palm will be there instead being comfronted by the guy and threatened to his life. He wants the research but the prof tells you to run back to the lab and collect a pokemon in order to help him.
Note that Lucas has made the pokemon and its evolution but hasn't decided if the guy really should be a team member.


Sorry, just thought it looked a bit messy. So the proffesor is knocked out or something so he can't use the pokemon himself? Because in R/S/E the prof is being chased by a Zigzagon right?
And your mixed pokemon actually looks good AFL.

The "at the lab" would work well.

EDIT: Here is the interior.
Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on August 21, 2007, 08:04:18 PM
This game seems to be proceeding decently...decently enough for me to bother posting something about it.

So far so good, the graphics fit together but from the few town screenshots I have seen, they are very anti-pokemon. The water always has been in the corners of the towns, hardly in the middle unless it was an island like Cinnabar or Dewford.

As for the started, the grass(?) one look like a mix between Chikorita and Jumpluff while the fire(?) one is an obvious cheapened-up version of Torchic. If you want this to work, you'll need to think hard and find your inspiration in exotic animals.

As for the evil team that uses ghosts, I'd got with Team Specter because of Ghastly and it's evolved forms. An homage to Lavender Town, heh. But that's just me.

Other than that, I'll be keeping an eye on this thread regularly.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 21, 2007, 08:40:04 PM
You might just be right BSW... We should disscuss things a bit more within the team. And I feel rather honoured that you took notice to this.

It's kind of hard to find anything original now after 4 generations of games, there are at least a dozen of different dogs/hounds/wolfs and cats as well as plants and fishes.
And I think that a treant-like starter is kinda better than using a turtle.

The only other tree-pokemon I can think of is sudowodu that is a rock type after all.
And I even tried to think of anything else that could fit in as the first step than a seed but couldn't figure out anything that hasn't been used yet.
Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on August 21, 2007, 09:36:19 PM
As you well know, all pokemon names come from two to three other words. In exemple, and the most obvious one, Huntail is made of  Hunt and Tail so if you want to make a starter grass pokemon, take two mundane things and mix them. It's always a good idea to have a background for the pokemon as it opens even more possibilities for names. I'll invent something for that seed-with-leaves-and-huge-eyes-that-seems-awfully-familiar-for-
some-reason grass type of yours. For my sake, I'll replace it's unknow name with a X.

X, the Grasswhistle Pokemon
When this Pokemon feels threatened, it shakes the leaves on his head to scatters spores that put it's foe to sleep. This pokemon sing a melody when it is happy..

So what do we have here. Leaves, Spores, Sing, Melody, Grass and Whistle. You could go anywhere from Sinspores to Whistleeves. You only need to be creative. And that's just an example so take it lightly.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 22, 2007, 05:16:27 AM
Well we took your advice and I made a new version. Although I tried to make it look more like the rest of its evelution it still reminds me of the baby-sudowudoo.

Well, I haven't shown it to any of the others because of my +1 timezone so I'll just submit it.

Note that the things on the sides are leafs and not pincers.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 22, 2007, 01:18:49 PM
Looks good to me. :)

Also, those towns are just mock ups to show the chipset. ;)

Although, Viridian had a small pond thing in R/B/Y/FR/LG
Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on August 23, 2007, 12:40:09 AM
Pleasant Scent? If you do use that name and said Pokemon doesn't learn 'Sweet Scent', we have a problem lol

Huntail is easier as you don't even have to read it backward. I guess it depends on who you ask.

That is all for now. I'll post once you guys have advanced some more.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 23, 2007, 03:54:07 AM
Ok, I'm not leading this project but I feel kinda obligated to let the peopel out there know that the almost-torchic-fire-starter has been replaced and after some disscusions we came up with an animal that none of us really could remember seeing in the game.

A Feline one. It got a really crappy name now and it's just a placeholder untill we come up with something better just as the earlier pokemons.
Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on August 23, 2007, 07:37:00 PM
A feline heh? What about Skitty and Delcatty? Cats do count as feline. I can't recall any tigers or leopard but they probably exist...I just don't remember.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 23, 2007, 08:29:57 PM
Well yeah exactly. This one will be more like a wild feline creature and then lion in the last evolution.
We just have to figure out a way to make the water type now.

And no, no powders for the grass, they will be fighting types just as Lucas said.
Title:
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on August 24, 2007, 02:24:15 AM
Uhm... Question. Ho will battles work?
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 24, 2007, 11:14:06 AM
So far, we have been planning tradition style. But it may change depending on what Lucas wants to do.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 27, 2007, 06:29:58 PM
Looks great, a bit darker hair than the original but it looks great.

And we are still working with the water type as well as brainstorming at the moment.

Lucas has some trouble doing the catching system though. And I know I had one of those games on my old computer but it's gone now.
So do you have any of those games or something like that? Would help out really.
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on August 27, 2007, 07:06:27 PM
Old Post: Hm... that person who posted earlier with wanting that Hero4 person, I thought about it, and started to edit a sprite to look like him! This is what I have so far, Yay/Nay?

New Post: Finished.  It just needs to be placed in a charset.  I'll do that when I go to put some other ones in a charset as well.

It seems your images are not able to be shown. Can you please provide a link.

If your willing to help me with the Chipsets and Charsets, as it seems that is my "job" on the team. Add me on Yahoo/Msn.

Yahoo ID: joe_oboe
MSN: joeafl@hotmail.com


I'm hardly ever going to be on MSN, so, please use my Yahoo ID.

Sorry I won't be as active on this as before, as, school has started here. =p.

I also have me in Trainer and Sprite form (Thanks prpl_mage for the Trainer edit. ) When I'm able to get on the computer with it, I'll finish up some other characters I'm working on and add them to a Charset.

Here is a fixed version of the interior Lucas.

Post by: Vlad Shadeu on September 02, 2007, 08:40:39 PM
okay.
i gave a SERIOUS contribution to AFL and am now helping convert, so i guess i'm a member of the team.
AFL, can you make the FR LG guy of mine have lighter hair please? it don't look good dark.
working on converting some townsfolk from some sprites i downloaded. i got a couple tilesets, but i have horrible luck with those. i'm used to fetching, not conversion. i'll do my best though. i gave AFL a download link, so he has the tilesets.

Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on September 02, 2007, 09:53:50 PM
Thanks Vlad.  And it wasn't a double post. ^-^

I tried making the hair lighter, but it turned out weird, so I may keep it the same (if i feel adventurous, I may try to do it again, but I'm not right now. ^^' ).

Here's a set!


This includes Professor Palm, Vlad, Myself, Prpl Mage, and a few random NPC's!
Title:
Post by: Vlad Shadeu on September 03, 2007, 12:09:40 AM
AFL, are you sure that is 256 colors?
looks like more.
or is this RMXP we are working with?
either way, i fixed the hair.
but it don't work with 256 without messing up part of it.


EDIT
the water starter should be a llama.
Lamwarr-Droneck-Watlamm (you choose the leveling points)

Lamwarr: Water looks= a young llama with a very long neck, dull blue coloration, and fins.pronounced attacks gained at this state are water gun.

Droneck: Water Looks: larger, particularly the neck, pronounced gills, losing fur, a slightly less dull color.pronounced attacks gained at this state are headbutt.

Watlamm: Water/Fighting: larger still, bipedal, thicker arms, dark blue and large fins pronounced attacks gained at this state are mirror move, ice punch and something i call Scare off.(5 pp) (dark type) it works just like whirlwind, but it only works once without fail like protect and it deals automatic damage to whoever was swapped in.

and there should be a raccon for the rodentine thing that every basic poke generation has.
Racat- LV 20-Maskief

Racat: Normal Looks =a small, vulenerable looking raccon with a long tail and big eyes.pronounced attacks gained at this state are natural gift, fake tears, and tailswipe

Maskief:Normal/dark looks= a large black mask, slightly grayish tint, thick, long tail. pronounced attacks gained at this state are mean look and rollout

PART OF EDIT 2 (THE REST WAS FIXING THE ABOVE EDIT)

we needs us some more ghosties. let's try some really bizzare elemental combos!
Phanto-LV 10-Spectron-Level up with Porygon Z in party-Polterbot

Phanto: Ghost Looks: a basic ghost with small, almost unnoticable wires going through it. noteable attacks:Homeade attack: Jolt. like 20 power, 15 PP, 30 max PP, electric. a small electric attack with a very small chance of paralisis.

Spectron: Ghost/Electric Looks: larger, with pronounced green eyes and larger wires. takes on humanoid shape a little. Pronounced attacks: thunder punch, mean look, night shade

Polterbot- Ghost/Thunder Looks: larger, thick, veiny wires, deep green eyes, fully humanoid.Pronounced attacks:thunderbolt, Hypnosis, dream eater.

NOTE: if i am made an important char, i would like to hand a Phanto egg over to the hero sometime. maybe even in place of the classic winning TM if i become a gym leader not an elite four or something else.

EDIT 3
we are getting a lion. we needs us some other exotic stuff. and some buggies, dem too. let's see what i can come up with
i don't know if those pokemon ideas are any good, but oh well. how bout' a Hedgehog-esque thing?
Porhog-level 20-Spikedge--level up with ekans in team (or some other decent requirement)-Quilbeast

if you will make an item called Poison Quill, that ups poison moves, it can just level up while holding that for Quillbeast

Porhog: normal Looks: small, defenseless, spiky.pronounced eyes, like Racats long-lost cousin. pronounced attacks: Homeade: spike shot 10 Power 30 PP Normal its one of those aweful repetitive attacks that get on your nerves

Spikedge(to clear things up, it's name is spike and hedge mixed)
Grass Looks: particularly larger feet, spikes look kinda like grass at this stage. he has small purple blotches, you will see why soon. (please try to make it NOT look like shiemi in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER) pronounced attacks: razor leaf, vine whip Homeade: Ram Normal 40 power 10 PP decsription: builds up speed to severly damage.

Quilbeast Grass/Poison Looks: large, more conical spikes, green with purple tips. it's large eyes grow a little purplish, and it looks a tad, demonic, shall i say. Pronounced attacks: rollout (hell yes) Homemade: poison shot: Poison 20 Power 20 PP it's old spike shot comes back to haunt you, poison style. has a small chance of afflicting poison.

EDIT 4 (next time i swear i will double post if i have to)
we needs us a dolphin! and maybe some other fishes too, fish pokemon are a neglected concept.
Dolphish- level 25-Swimfast

Dolphish-Water Looks- small, innocent looking dolphin, light blue (like my version of the hair) pronounced attacks- water gun, bubble beam, and strangely, splash.

Swimfast- Water Looks-Sharp, sleek, and angular, dark blue or black (gender based if you want) with a scary lookin' set of choppers. pronounced attacks :Bite, Homemade attack: Crash:60 Power 10 PP this looks like dive/dig/fly conceptualwise, and the actual attack is a huge dark crash of water and a couple slash-like motions


dunno if these are any good

The hair looks kinda bad with those colors.  Its just too.. bright.  Do you understand what I'm saying?  Thats why I didn't change them.  I'll see if I can find a happy medium another time.  Sorry if I'm being stubborn about it.

And no, I hadn't turned them into 256 colors yet.


I'll do that now.  Are you using Paint to do it?  Never use Paint.

I use Ultimate Paint.  I hear Paint Shop Pro works just as good.

It's 256 colors now.

And we're not using Xp.  I think* its Rm2k3.

*Either that or 2000

We have a Water stater already.  I like it. :)

You should add us on Yahoo/Msn.

(Me Yahoo, because that is all i have :( )


Ooo.. I made a .NET account that let's me access MSN!  Weee


Its ------ (replaced, use joeafl@hotmail.com )------

(---------------------------------)


So, now, you can add me on MSN.  I hope.  (PLEASE LET IT BE SO!!!!)

Anyway...  thanks for the list. :)

I think I shall wait until I talk to Lucas and Prpl Mage to respond to them.

okay, cuz i heard you guys talking from awhile back on this forum, and you never mentioned aquiring a fire starter. oh well. now we gots us a llama. where the ideas any good? i'm gonna go get an MSN. what will the gen-staple dragon thing be? (gen-staple noun something every generation of pokemon has some type of) i could think one up if you declare me good at thinking pokes up. need ultimate paint..... paint is terrible.... :guns: OH NOES, PAINT HIRES MEN TO KILL ME! CURSE YOU PAINT! (sorry, random outburst there)

Post by: Vlad Shadeu on September 03, 2007, 03:22:27 AM
now, in my lousy-pokemon-creator-ness (unless i'm good, then scratch that cheesy first line) i have some evos to CURRENT pokemon i would like to bring forth to the commitee.

Ditto-level up with Porygon in team ONLY if level 30 or higher-Dittmax

Ditto-we all know him

Dittmax- Phsychic Type Looks- blue blob. has spikes and scales in various areas, as if he is about to morph.Noteable attacks: transform (of course) Homemade: Form Randomize Power N/A PP 2 max 4 effect: transforms into a random pokemon that is already in the players dex, at the current level of Dittmax and with a decent attack set.

Sableye-level up with an item called shiny crystal-Sableglow

(quick stats for shiny crystal- sell price-300 description: an itemthat enhances Normal-Type moves)

Sableglow- Dark/Ghost type Looks: looks like sable eye, but pitchblack with no ears. instead it has a long line of fins (think dinoish) coming down it's back. it's eyes are green, and a lot more bright, actually emitting light from them (thus sableglow) Noteable attacks: hyper beam, Homemade: Dark fist: power 70 PP 20 effect: A very strong and reckless attack that hurts the user a little

Psyduck-however it levels- Golduck- Dusk Stone- Duckmass

Duckmass-Water/Dark type Looks: it is black, and has very fat, greedy eyes. unlike the slender Golduck, it is quite fat, and has a large red crystal on top of it. its beak comes out to a fiercely pointed triangle, and unlike most ducks it has teeth
Pronounced attacks: payday,trick, false swipe
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 03, 2007, 04:37:45 AM
Vlad, your ideas are quite good although most of them are already included.
I do not really agree with the Porygon Z evolvements, just sounds a bit messy and I can't figure out in what way you would need a Porygon to make them evolve correctly

The Dittmax soudns good but I doubt that it would be easy to code such an attack. As AFL, said, add us on msn so you can actually talk to us.

And I finished your battle sprite btw.

kindly explain why you need remoraid to make a lumineon lol.
well, dittmax is hard to code, i understand.
dittmax and phanto are technologically complex, and the first REALLY techno pokemon i think up is one of the 3 porygons.
i got an MSN, just for you guys.
however, i don't know how to work it lol.
THAT BATTLE SPRITE IS WICKED AWESOME!

Reply to this and get a free wig? Unless of course you're intention is to have a walking wig of wisdom? And in case someone slow reads this, I'm refering to the floating wig on the attached image above this message.

On a more serious note, glad to see this game is still going.
Title:
Post by: lilsniffs3 on September 15, 2007, 09:26:34 PM
For some reason it doesn't seem to look like a girl, but that's just my POV. Nice to see the game's still being made, keep up the good work!

PS: Is that Ash you edited off of? Oh yeah, while looking around on Lucas's photobucket account I found a charset of the grass starter.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 15, 2007, 10:41:17 PM
I donno Lil, but Lad is mostly referering to a boy while lass is a girl. So his name is placeholder as well as most other names at the moment.

Anf yeah, the game is prospering at the moment and will most probably continue with that. We are up at 38 original Pkmns done and I got a pile of additional ones that I have to make sooner or later.

And that wig is porbably just the hair before it was attached to the characters body. I mean, the thing can't be used as a correct charset like that.

So untill a later update comes with some real info, cya.
Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on September 15, 2007, 10:59:05 PM
I was kidding about the wig. It was supposed to be funny. Then again, being funny isn't my strong point.

I want to see a sprite of a new Pokémon or at least give me a name or something to chew on while I wait.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 16, 2007, 06:17:33 AM
Aight, You'll get anoth pokemon to chew on, just note that is is a montage, and a rather bad one as well.

http://i13.tinypic.com/52zb1xc.png

And I did get that with the hair, just wanted to make sure that there was no idiots comming here like "Omg I want to be in if you have a talking wig! PLZ?!" Or something...

Enjoy either way.

Title:
Post by: blackskullwarlock on September 16, 2007, 10:16:29 AM
Did you actually made everything on those screenshots? That's pretty impressive. Makes me want to keep an even closer eye on this game. Never did a game catch my attention with as little details released about it.
Title:
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on September 16, 2007, 02:37:15 PM
Menu? You mean like the bag?
Title:
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on September 16, 2007, 05:33:24 PM
He means the Bag, Party, Pokedex, etc.  The Menu.

Just to kinda clarify... Prpl is doing Trainers, I'm doing Charsets. :)

..just thought of that...


I've already made 3 music pieces for the game.  I think I'll upload one and get some opinion from the Public. :happy:

Updates make people happy.

Post by: Ryos4 on September 17, 2007, 12:58:35 AM
Hmm i just had an thought about this just recently.  There havent really been any ant based pokemon have there?  

If not you should add like a fire/bug fire ant type  that evolves into like either a fire fly or centipede or some sort. I think centipede would be the best bet, addition of more legs and larger mandibles when it evolves and it wont dance around the line of flying type.

Off the top of my head i cant think of any fire/bug types.
Title:
Post by: lilsniffs3 on September 17, 2007, 01:17:57 AM
Was there ever a mammoth, or dinosaur in the games? (i havent played d or p
Title:
Post by: Ryos4 on September 17, 2007, 01:36:52 AM
Well they did have an elephant type before (i think its called Phampy) and i would think that there are plenty of reptiles already.  Lots of dragons and such, which is pretty much the same as a dino just lacking wings.  Which would be alot like charmander.

But the mammoth does sound like a good idea.  It would probably be an ice type right?  Being all fuzzy.
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 17, 2007, 04:04:26 AM
Ants, yes I had that idea as well. But making it burn with work great. Was thinking bug/ice with this iceicle on it's back but never mind.

And there are loads of dinosaurs already, just picking them out of my head...

Bulbasaur,(Charmander), Aerodactyl, Chicorita, Larvitar, (Treeco), Tropius, (Groudon), Turtwig, Cranidos, Shieldon, Gible, (Dialga), (Palkia).
Yeah, some of them aren't really dinosaurs but I'd say that they are.

But there is a mammoth already. Piloswines evolvement, Mamoswine. Ice ground.
Title:
Post by: Ryos4 on September 17, 2007, 04:29:25 AM
Dude i thought that was based off of like a boar or something.  But i suppose it a sort of mammoth, though it looks a lil more of a buffalo crossed with a boar?
Title:
Post by: Ben on September 17, 2007, 05:01:25 AM

ah ok,  maybe make it a little brighter (? I think its the opposite of make the pic darker or?)
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 21, 2007, 07:10:49 PM
The new one, other backround, less smoothed out, emerald style really and a custom made font in an attempt to mimic the original "something version" style. I'm just gonna admitt that the font suck.

In other words, you will most probably see another title sooner or later.

Enjoy.

what's obsidian?
Title:
Post by: Prpl_Mage on September 21, 2007, 08:41:25 PM
Obsidian is a black stone, rather shiny if polished and I can't recall if it is a quartz or not.

Mostly used in various games and mangas as a stone of dark power and/or incredible durability wich makes it perfect for buildings.

So yeah... It's a black stone, and it's a black shadow of our legendary in the back.

Technicaly yes, but still no...
You came up with the concept with the type and the attacks.
I made the design and the pokemon overall, and the name...

But it was not the work of an individual, it was made by the team you know? We sat up all night (according to my time ofc) and disscussed everything wich created what you can see at the intro screen.

And don't you dare give up now Lucas, I've spend hours and hours of spriting. I would almost say that it is harder than your coding as you got everything laid before you.
