But professor palm is being attacked by that guy, that says something like: give me the research or I ll use my pokemon! Prof Palm says to you take a pokemon from his lab, or his backpack, havent decided yet, and you fight that guy that will used a phantom pokemon, that I already made (he and the evoluted form) but have no idea of a good name.

 

Your mother tells you that Prof.palm wants to see you. As you try to walk out of the town there will be an evil team guy in the way. 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.

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.

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.

[blackskullwarlock]

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.

[Prpl_Mage]

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.

[A Forgotten Legend]

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

[blackskullwarlock]

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.

[Prpl_Mage]

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.

[blackskullwarlock]

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.

[Prpl_Mage]

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.

[ZeroKirbyX]

Uhm... Question. Ho will battles work?

[A Forgotten Legend]

So far, we have been planning tradition style. But it may change depending on what Lucas wants to do.

[Prpl_Mage]

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.
