Hello everyone here.

I am wondering what the interest level would be for a Pokemon RP I'm looking to DM here.

I have the world for the RP mostly designed from a while ago when I tried doing this RP before but inactivity happened so it couldn't continue.

I am looking to gauge interest and the more, the merrier but there has to be a limit to the amount of participants so I would say 12 trainers max.

Let me know if you would be interested and I will post the background synopsis when I can.

I look forward to this and have a great night/day.

Hello Reborn.

I hope you are doing well since we last met.

I am redoing my introduction because I have been away for quite a long time (a yearish maybe) and a lot has happened to change me since then.

I hit a real low with my bad habits, attitudes and tendencies back in February of this year and so I called a phone therapy service my work is connected to. I talked on the phone with a counselor for an hour and 20 minutes about all kinds of issues after I destroyed my Discord server with a controlling tyranny over a fun and successful RP I had going and it caused half of the active members to leave the server leading to a slow demise which I'm hoping to reverse soon.

Anyways the point is that afterwards I started going to an in-person therapist to discuss my issues, get some well needed tips on addressing my bad behaviours such as controlling and not giving others the freedom to choose when I always had that. In addition, I have been learning to humanize people on the internet because I wasn't doing that most of the time and literally thought you all were just avatars with words and text behind them. I have learned a lot and I'm still learning through my therapy. It has done wonders on me despite what my dad told me.

I want to make one thing clear to everyone who knew me before:

**If you plan to haze me for my past transgressions or troubles while I was here before, then so be it but I hope you can put the past in the past and give me a fresh start per say. I promise and guarantee I have changed how I view people, things and how to address my bad habits and now it's a matter of putting what I have learned into practice.**

I hope to get to know all the new people as well that have joined since I left and I'll see you guys around.

Have a great day/night.

Hi guys, as a new recruit to this fangame, I can tell you I am very excited for the outcome of this game we are making. Even If I just make the official art for characters in this game, my involvement still gives me high hopes. And I can tell you, the story is gonna be AWESOME. If you want to join into our team, go ahead we are looking forward for your help.

Hello everyone. We are very welcome to have agood join Team Darkness as an artist and more for the project. Thank you for your kind words and enthusiasm agoodcabinet though.

The team has a question which we put in the poll and we would like your feedback about it if possible and thanks for helping us out if you answer the new question in the poll.

Have a great holidays and we will be back to working on this asap.

WOW Zumi. This is an amazing drawing of Guzma and his ace. I love the pose of the ace and now I finally understand where your guzma profile pic before came from lol so I'm glad about figuring that out. ;p

Very impressive and keep up the amazing art. Have a great day/night.

December 15, 2016

Seeing as we have an update to make, I should make a post right?

Anyways, I am proud and happy to announce that we have a new scripter/coder in Night Fighter who has joined us and we have a new composer, who joined us after we advertised on twitter about needing a composer, because the last one isn't available anymore.

We thank you Night Fighter of Reborn for joining Team Darkness and we are proud to announce the game development is off hiatus now because we have already started planning in-game ideas.

Hope everyone is excited for the return of Pokemon Darkness and have a great day/night.

December 15, 2016

Hello aGood.

The game I am working on with a team is not using fakemons but maybe post some images of a couple to showcase your skill level when it comes to the art or sprites.

I saw your Adrienn picture and it's very well done and so I would like to ask if you would be willing to help a fangame out by making official art or fanart for the project. If so, I am very willing to get ideas and feedback on the story I am doing and if a character of yours could fit, I'm all for including them.

Please let me know and if you decide not to be a part of the project, that's cool and I hope someone else sees value in your help.

Please PM me if you are interested so I can give you important information if you get in contact with me.

Hello everyone.

I am posting to mention that Pokemon Darkness has been kind of on a hiatus for the last 3 months which is due to the team including me not being available due to school, work and being more busy since summer was over. We just wanted to let you guys know this and we are hoping we can have something going soon if I ever stop procrastinating and focus on this once again which I honestly am hoping to soon.

Until we have another update for you, we are on hiatus but we are still searching for a composer and a scripter (check above post or first post of the thread for details) because if I had those, it would help get me motivated to work on this again and thus get my team going again.

Thanks for reading this, supporting this project and have a great day.

Thanks a lot for the encouragement. I've been trying for years, but never seemed to get it. I'll try harder now.

I guess people aren't editing ROMS anymore? That's what I've always done.

No problem. Trust me when I say I have had moments of unclearness/doubt during making the game and despite it's 3 month hiatus so far due to the team being busy, it's worth it to push through and try to continue forward. I'm also not letting the game die because it's been a year so far of development.

I mean you can edit a rom if you really want to. That gives you some experience with spriting, scripting, mapping, other game aspects that you could then use to perfect your own pokemon fangame. I don't know how you would edit a rom though so sorry about that. I'm doing my own game from scratch using RMXP and Essentials over time with my small team.

3 minutes ago, Tristram said:

Is there a good place to find these programs? Also, I've been told that doing these alone is not the smartest option.

I have sprited a little in the past. Here's some examples.

RMXP is on Steam. Wait for Sales if you want or buy it for 25 dollars, Essentials is free on the Essentials wiki, Graphicsgale is free online, notepad++ is also free. I don't know about the other programs since I never use them so sorry I can't help more.

You just have to look around to find the resources but they are out there for sure.

I wish you good luck and I know the exact same feeling of not knowing most of the game development when you start. I was the same way but I learned some spriting, mapping over the course of my game designing and now I'm a much more knowledgeable game creator but also you don't have to do it alone. If you run into trouble and need some occasional help, I'm sure the very nice and helpful people here in Reborn will be glad to help you out like they did for me. Disclaimer: I do have a team because I polished my idea and made it appealing for potential team members so maybe consider doing the same and you might find some people willing to join you in making your game. Don't sell yourself short like Ame was saying above just because you don't know how to make a game all by yourself and really you just have to be willing to learn over time like I am so I can be more than just the manager/story person of the team for my game.

BTW that purple sprite is so good imo but I'm not the best at spriting and are more the idea/story kind of guy.

December 4, 2016

Hello Ame. Do you want people to share/tweet about this because Team Darkness can tweet about supporting a fellow amazing game creator if you would like?

I plan to help you a lot per month so I hope you continue to have lots of support from people.

This was an awesome idea. I just hope it doesn't backfire later on somehow.

November 13, 2016

I said mine on Skype already but I'll say it again here lol.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND HOPE YOUR DAY HAS BEEN AMAZING AND FULL OF FUN AND HAPPINESS!!

November 10, 2016

As a spectator, you guys are doing awesome and I'm excited to see what Karik (Marik with a K ) adds to the party now.

Keep up the awesome RP and have a great day/night.

Sorry if I shouldn't post and just let me know if you don't want me to and I'll respect that.

Something you need to understand is that rping is largely character driven. Backstory and conversation is not "fluff". In fact, it is what makes posts more interesting. Furthermore, as expressed above, these kinds of things happen all the time within the games and thus it makes sense that they would happen here.

It's honestly disrespectful that you would call any form of development pointless, not only to the players, but to the hosts as well. If you feel that we're adding unnecessary aspects to the game (that is again, largely character driven) in including this, feel free to stop following and do your own thing. See how well it goes for you.

Yes, I understand that. I'm sorry for calling it fluff and pointless, I didn't realize it was an important part of this. I do apologize about that. I forgot support convos happen mid-battle majority of the games but that becomes the next question then. Is the conversation between Suto and Huk a support conversation then and does that mean for these RPs you don't need to be between chapters time to raise a support level or how does it work?

To be totally clear, I wasn't saying don't have conversations at all and it seems Krim you are twisting my words which is why I want to be totally clear. I was thinking these conversations should happen after the chapter ends and between the chapters because they are support ones but the above posts reminded me supports happen in midbattle which I forgot so I understand better now.

I just wanted to say my thoughts but I was not expecting to be attacked for them so thanks a lot. I appreciate the understanding that oh maybe I can make a mistake in thinking somehow. *sarcasm implied*

EDIT: To Huk, Murdoc and Inno, I forgot Supports can happen midbattle so thanks for reminding me and I apologize for forgetting.

November 7, 2016

I'm confused about something and whether it's okay to do it.

I notice now Huk and Suto are having a full fledged conversation which should be saved for support convos AFTER a battle/chapter NOT DURING right? It adds a lot of fluff to the thread which if people want to catch up later in the future or something and see how the battles went, they have to endure through the pointless fluff.

The enemy is not going to let you just sit around and chat so how can they have this conversation while battling the pirate army exactly lol.

Just my opinion but I would think it's reasonable that you can't have a conversation while battling an enemy army tbh and would rather wait till after the battle to chat to your heart's content. XD

November 4, 2016

so if Madante dies, is it game over for the party?

His class is lord so that's what I'm thinking but I'm just wondering.

Anyways excited for this and that it has started. Interlopers from another universe, you're not welcome here lol.

Can anyone join the discord or just the party members?

Also no one has actually shut the door yet so can someone?

Have a great time. Hopefully I can appear soon.

November 3, 2016

Uh for an OOC thread this sure is IC right now.

2 more days till this starts. Will anyone die or will you be successful, only time will tell.

November 2, 2016

i actually play fe near-constantly; it doesn't make me much better at it though hah

thanks for your kind words, though

Oh okay, I didn't know so I was just being careful.

No problem and you're welcome about the kind words. Hopefully together we three can still be in this later on when more recruitment happens but if not, oh well I guess and Link and Roku, make sure to have loads of fun for me as well.

November 2, 2016

Congratulations to my 2 friends Link and Roku for making it.

I'm sure you'll do awesome Roku and I'll be watching over time so just try your best. Maybe play some FE over time to get a better hang of the mechanics, strategy etc.

Wish we could have been together all three of us for this but it's fine but in reality I'm very sad.

Also congratulations Pyon. You're not just a host but a participant this time. Can't wait to see how you do.

I agree with Commander which is why I gave him a like on his comment.

Have a great night and I need time to grieve the exclusion of my character for the time being lol. XD

October 31, 2016

I was going to say having the data would be a nice thing and just because Ashes doesn't, doesn't mean this has to follow suit. In FE games, you get the enemy data simple as that so yeah.

One more day to go before the big announcement. Crossing fingers tightly

October 31, 2016

I'm just glad there finally is an actual tiger, besides Raikou which is not even really a tiger.

But the name is lazy and it sucks. Especially since Pyroar exists. Couldn't they have made a more creative pun? Tigristle? Sabrawl? Roguier? Anything but Incineroar.

Sigh.

Also it's seven generations in and we still don't have anything close to a dolphin, besides Kyogre by technicality. Wth, GF.

Tapu Fini when it closes completely is a dolphin looking thing so there you go.

October 31, 2016

The new JP trailer that just came out has LOTS of new information such as popplio learning aqua jet, torracat having fire blast, turtonator having flamethrower, etc and I'm still watching it but we also see the bug and psychic z moves in it which is cool.

I feel like there could be some potential things to discuss with these last few trailers that have recently come out.

October 31, 2016

I love math despite sucking in calculus and functions in gr 12 lol.

I like the simple math with numbers for addition, subtraction, division and multiplication not the complicated junk math. It's why I'm pursuing accounting field of career.

I don't mind calculating my own things if need be.

2 more days until we learn who will be part of this rp. Super excited.

Hey Roku. Nice to see you around.

Remember what we said we would want to do as RP newbies in the showdown lobby chat a while ago during nations? Be in an RP together. It would be really awesome if me, link and you could get in for sure.

Anyways can't wait to see who gets in on Tuesday. Crossing my fingers my backstory was really good because I put a lot of time and effort into it.

October 30, 2016

Here is my entry. Hope you all like it. Have a great night.

EDIT: SORRY!
