I think I'd be able to help with modding specific mega Pokemon into your game if you had any in mind, the only problem for me though is the sprites. I'm no artist, let alone a pixel artist. I also don't think I can make any new abilities with effects that don't yet exist. I tried once to see if there was anyone on the community who'd be willing to made a sprite of a mega Pokemon, but couldn't find anyone to help. If you already have sprites you'd want to use, or can make them yourself, then I can help with the other stuff.

Wow, I completely forgot to take into account Crests. That changes a lot...

Right now I've been working mostly in order of the National Dex and I'm in Gen II with a few random ones here and there that come to me. I don't really know what to do for Castform though... He can be one of the few +60 net total candidates, bringing him from 70 in all stats to 80, but what does that really accomplish? I can't give him a different ability because Forecast is a defining trait of Castform, so I have to give him moves that fit with his theme but also increase his viability to not be a total gimmick and that's kind of the issue. If I compare him to another similar Poke

Hmm... If I go through with creating a version everyone here can download, I could do several versions. It would probably be faster to make all the changes at once, but I could go through and do moves/abilities first, save that separately, then go in and edit some stats, that way if you don't want the stat changes but do want the other changes, then you'll have a version meant for you. Also, another reason I wanted to share this on here was because I'd love feedback on different mons as I go along. It's going to be difficult to ensure that every change I make is something that will

That's good to hear. There's a part of me doesn't want to have to edit Pokemon stats and abilities to make the game a bit more balanced, but another part of me that gets frustrated that some Pokemon are so much worse than some others. I spend a lot of time thinking about game design and game balance in a lot of titles, not just Pokemon, but this is the one that I kinda wish I could work on to make the game more fun and make competitive battling more diverse with extra options.

Hello! So something I think most of us are familiar with is that there's a fairly massive gap in power levels between some of the strongest Pokemon and some of the weakest. It's hard to compare Luvdisc, for example, to a Pokemon like Gyarados. This is something that's always bothered me to a degree. I don't necessarily think that every Pokemon needs to be equally powerful, nor do I think that's even possible, but something I've found myself passionate about doing is trying to bring the bottom level up a few notches--to try and tighten the gap between the Pokemon that are weak and t

So I just finished the events at the top of mt Valor and experienced the montage of cutscenes featured around the island. Now I woke up in the ship with no passengers with no explanation, no indication of where I'm meant to go, and I'm completely lost. Am I missing something? Was there something said that I missed? And where am I supposed to go?

It would actually be 115 Special Attack, if you're adding 20 points from 95. Slight miscalculation.

I mentioned a Mega Girafarig before in a post, but I found some fan art of a design for it and I'm absolutely in love. For anyone that's interested, check out this spectacular piece of artwork and like the artist! http://icaro382.deviantart.com/art/Mega-Girafarig-554844752 Retracting my former Mega Girafarig suggestion and changing it up based on the design: Mega Girafarig Normal/Psychic Ability - Duality: Attacks from this Pokemon are followed with a second attack at 50% power from the opposite offensive stat. This second attack does not apply secondary effects. HP | 70 - 70 Attack |

Mega Ledian Bug/Fairy Ability: Huge Power HP ---------- 55 Attack ------ 75 | (+40) Defense ---- 80 | (+30) Sp Atk ------ 35 | (-20) Sp Def ----- 120 | (+10) Speed ----- 125 | (+40) I'm running off the assumption that if Gamefreak did this, they'd add some of the incoming new Fairy-Type moves to Ledian's move pool (such as a Fairy-Type punch). It also works with Ledian's starlight theme which runs consistently through it's Dex entries. Visually, Ledian wouldn't change much; however, its spots would change to glowing stars, and stardust would rain from its fluttering wings. Mega Furre

So I've been thinking about enjoying reborn with my own custom character, but I've never made a sprite before, and I honestly don't know where to begin. I know that I'd need to replace a handful of assets from the character model to the back sprite, the overworked model's walking, running, surfing, and tauros riding animations, and their challenger cut-ins. That's a lot of work if I really want to do that right. Does anyone who does sprites have advice or assistance to offer with how to get started, what programs are best (mac friendly please)?

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I've messaged each of you the story concept.

Hey, So I have a story idea I have outlined, and would love to have someone to talk about it with. I'd like to discuss the main character I have, their Pokemon and nicknames, supporting characters, and ways of interpreting the story elements. If anyone is interested in that as well as possibly reviewing any chapters, please let me know.

Favorite middle Pokemon: Togetic. I love Togetic's design, but I am not a fan of Togekiss. I don't really like almost any of the "correction evolutions" that were added in gen 4. Wartortle is a big one too, I don't like how Squirrel gets the large, cloud-like tail and pointy ears only to lose them as Blastoise in exchange for inorganic cannons. I kinda wish they went with a "Wisetoise" or something that emphasized the old wise turtle concept that I feel like Wartortle was setting up. I generally like the middle evolutions for most of the starter pokemon too... Ivysaur, Quilava, Croconaw, Grov

I'm guessing sometime around Halloween give or take.

can always add in an asian set of protagonists and hispanic ones

I saw the sprite video and how you aren't going to be limited to 8 protagonist characters. Do you think you will try adding others over time?
