Hey I wanted to ask, do the player characters have official names? Similar to how the player characters in Reborn and Rejuvenation have official names, I would love to know if the ones in this game do as well? I love playing a Pokémon fan-game more when the player character I'm playing as has their own name. For me, it makes it feel more part of the story then imposing a chosen name on a character.
Yes! I wasn't sure if Caz wanted to reveal them in a cool way, but I just got the okay to do so~
Spoiler
Chad (Caz really wanted that to be his name lol)
Sienna!
Diego!
Danielle! (just Dani is fine too~)

My former favorite moment was E4 but the whole archives thing and the battle with aurora/shiv.
My new favorite is (E5 spoilers)
Spoilergoing through Cellia North with Aaron and Garret, that whole sequence and the battle with Hardy at the end, I loved that!
6 minutes ago, AmadeusXander said:So ... I'm not sure if this has been answered, I tried looking it up and I haven't seen it as answered so I'm going to take the shot!
As we all know Pokemon Desolation has its own quests and sidequest and ... what is bothering me is the Weeping Hill book sidequest, I've seen some videos from previous episodes but I can't seem to find the key to enter the room that has said book, anyone knows how to do this?
PS: Yes I have done the other quest on weeping hills (Rangers quest and the Red Piece Quest)I'm going to assume you mean the book sidequest given to you by a woman in Celeste. You have to have done all the rangers sidequests, and speak to Elliot. He'll give you a final sidequest in which you'll be able to access the library in the Weeping Hill, and you'll find the book for the woman there too.

So im at Redcliffe town, and im grinding before the Connor battle, but my pokemon stopped at level 20, is there a level cap? or is there something wrong with my game? Because even at level 20 his team destroys me, my team is Noibat (Lvl 20), Rockruff (Lvl 20), and Shiny Meowth(Lvl 20).
There's a hard level cap at 20 when you vs Connor. You can view the level caps on your trainer card, and the only way to go above the level caps is to use a rare candy.

Heyooo
We got some requests to make a fanworks thread on here, so... here it is!
Thank you all for the support! Also note that any works that have to do with E5 have to be spoiler tagged.
Memes are fine too, of course! And I might as well throw in some of the meme stuff I made, to start it all off \o/
these arent e5 spoilers until later btw I just dont like my images being huge lolSpoiler
I still love Shiv

What character from the game is your favorite?
Appreciate all that you have done and thank you for your hard work Caz ,Posty, Ruby Red
i can never have one favorite of anything
Hardy, Garret, Amelia and Shiv for me, haha
34 minutes ago, dani0702 said:How do you recolor characters, like how Scarrlet is a re texture of ceil in pokemon reborn. It would be great if you could tell me how to
PS: Thank you for making such a wonderful game
Hi! I, uh.. Scarlett isn't a recolor of Ciel? aha...
Transition sprites are hard to work with, so occasionally I've had to use others as a base/reference for help, but I draw everything from scratch! I'm playing around with completely making transition sprites from scratch without a base, and will be doing more of that in the future for other charas~
As for how to do it? well... I learned from trial and error, and I use Paint Tool SAI to make my sprites. SAI isn't free, but there are a lot of other good free programs for spriting/digital art that are available (for example, piskel, firealpaca, medibang and graphicsgale are a few free programs you can use to get started!) -

Sorry one more question. What are the personalities of the main characters in your opinion?
they actually have names! But some of them have been changed but I won't spoil it atm~
so i'll just refer to them as..
blue boy (lol): adventurous! heart of gold~ would probably be everyone's best friend
green blond boy (the new guy!): lone wolf-ish! probably a bit edgy but punk-ish too~ (somehow he has friends)
blue pink girl: Easy-going, but pretty hyper and brave as well! she'd be a risk taker~
green girl: I could see her being kinda quiet but also unexpectedly sassy and smug at times too!-

oh lord i have been busy (whew late post)
but not busy enough to have time for A LOT OF OC MEMES
btw am deso artist now but any deso stuff im not gonna post here cuz they'll be in the deso gallery jsyk
MEMES (later ones look prettier i promise):
Spoiler
inspired by a similar meme i found on tumblr that i couldnt not draw bc cedric would totally do this if she asked
smol sumi and hideki (her brother)
''dont talk to me or my future gf ever again''
the only reborn i draw now is taka, zel, or memes including either taka or zel or both
the duality of Ruby (and her ships)
me and frens discussed which ship would win in a fight...
(inomire wins cuz they both stronkk as hell but tbh they wouldnt fight BUT YOU KNOW)
Inosuke stop
i finally found a good way to include one of my old forgotten ocs into one of my stories
No Thoughts Head Empty Inomire for the MIND and SOUL
jokes on cedric lol zephyr doesnt fear anything
anyway here's some spicy KIMETSU NO YAIBA / DEMON SLAYER SPOILER MEMES:
Spoilerfrens joked abt them going to kimetsu bucks and being happy after defeating muzan
this was made before Demonjiro so thats why Tanjiro has no arm/eye in this
also bc i thought tanji was gonna die and i was rlly sad bc hes baby..
lord save me. this has become a crack ship that my friends are encouraging
more doumire...
(this unintentionally looks like a continuation so i'll say it is)
okay serious(ish) art time now:
SpoilerOoo this time imma start with KIMETSU NO YAIBA / DEMON SLAYER SPOILERS LOL:
mainly bc some of this spoiler art is older than the other pics i made so i'd rather feature these firstSpoilerthis manga tortured me. it did. im deceased, dead, non existing.
i legit cried here. they deserved to be happy and so much more,, i dont like the last chapter of kny with reincarnations but at least they got to be together then
at least Kaburamaru survived *cries*
what better pic to have made for Inosuke's birthday than A N G S T
anyway, continuing on,
the file name for this isnt accurate bc he did in fact not kill a man
BEST!!!!!!! BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this looks like its a meme and it is but it looks good enough so it goes here >:/ (sumire but as the iconic Tanjiro face)
cedric: ''what if we were animal crossing villagers
(with pants)..... and we held hands........... haha jk.................... unless?
Six fanarts I did for twitter (full images available here)
and another six fanarts I did for insta (full pics here)
u best believe that demon is dead
i think this my fave pic of all time. speedpaint here~ (total footage was 10 hours,,,)

OKAMI SUMI OKAMI SUMI OKAMI SUMI OKAMI SUMI OKAMI SUMI
the stupid jock and the smart girl hdfhsdfjsg

How old are the characters exactly?
If they were to partake in a drinking game, who would get drunk the fastest and who would stay sober?
I asked Caz a bit ago and he didn't give everyone a specific age
and i have my own headcanons, but all of them are adults and iirc.. (srry if i forget some charas,)Protags, Connor, Ava, Scarlett, Tristan, Hardy, (REDACTED), Sena : 18-21 (the protags are canonically adults but ppl can headcanon w/e)
Shiv, Aurora, Nova, Amelia, Emily, Aderyn, Garret(?) : 21-25
Garret??????? Lilith, Rosetta, (SPOILER), 25-28
Baron: no clue. I assume at least 50+ lol
also, ur asking the real questions now. these are my hc's in case caz decides to respond lol
(gonna include the ppl 21+ bc drinking ages vary)
Fastest drunk? this is entierly bc I think it'd be hilarious but shiv/aurora/garret
Sad n Sober? Spoiler character but also probably Baron
ily for these funny q's they keep my sanityI stand corrected

Thanks for the compliments!
This might be a bit anticlimactic but I don't really have an artist as my artistic influence, but the media I consume has really helped my artstyle become my own! My older art style (up till october last year) was pretty heavily inspired by s1-2 of attack on titan's art style. I'm pretty sure my art from then was pretty edgy looking, but since I'm obsessed with Demon Slayer now lol it kind of helped change my art style to become more soft? (yet with my own original flair to it)- I used to refer to my art as semi-realism but now I rarely draw in that older style (exceptions being when I draw my OC's Rubyyeah same name I knowand Cedric, but they look softer than they used to). Sorry if this was a bit rambly lol. Talking about my art style exposes the weeb in me but I can't lie that I haven't been inspired by it lol haha~-

Hey there guys! First of all congratulations to Posty and Ruby for becoming a part of one of the three big Pokemon titans!! (Pokemon Reborn, Rejuvie, and Desolation.) I know with their help the game will explore to even bigger heights than ever before!!
Now I only have about.. 2 or so questions which any member of the team is willing to answer if they like.
First one is something I've always been curious to know. That would be when you had the choice to either give the stone to either shiv or Crescent. Which did you go with and why?
The second one I feel is somewhat similar to the first, Which is character development! If you could choose only one character in the WHOLE game which one did you think was the most shocking but had the best character development and change in how they operated (Basically how they think of situations, how they executed their actions, etc.).
The last one is the music.. I feel it's one of the essential things that can really tell a story for the characters like how Hardy's theme was kind of a soft and hot rivalry before it changed into a more rock and roll and feeling that you wish there was another way until things come up and pull the rug from under you. Will the music change to really symbolize these moments in the story or will they stay the same with only a re-done melody?
I would like to once again to thank you for taking time out of your schedules just to help keep one of the biggest fangames to date stay alive and really drive it to the top of the MOUNTAIN!! **FIND GREATNESSS AT THE TOP OF THE PEAKK!!!!!!!** And to thank you for answering the questions of this curious fan of this game since I've played through it alot of times and enjoyed it ~~Although I rage quitted after I couldn't beat tristan the first time which was for a whole year cause I couldn't get past the wigglytuff since by the time I got by his pokemon mine were either at red or yellow.~~ I also hope you have a wonder day. ^_^Thank you so much for the support!!
1. I chose Shiv because Nova's goal was too bizarre for me lol. I'd rather not dream forever ><
2. Hardy, ufhghgdfgfg he's one of my faves but really, I love his character development throughout the game!
3. Some of the music has been changed, but still leaves the same (perhaps, even better) overall feeling and storytelling aspect! Since we're testing E5 I can confidentally say that the new music that has been added has greatly amplified the mood in certain scenes and battles!
4. Again, thank you, and everyone for the support! It's amazing seeing people come together and reignite the spark for this fangame again, especially after being gone for a few years, aha. I hope E5 is to everyone's liking when it drops, since I've been having one hell of a time testing it~
(also u wont be stuck at Tristan anymore lol I was the same as u when I first played desolation lmao)-

right question
how is rosetta supposed to look like? in the intro or in game?will she be very fabulous? will she still look like ms santa in v5?
The old intro Rosetta of E4, correct me if I'm wrong, looked to be a recolor of another character from somewhere else. Her actual sprites (aka santa) was the more accurate Rosetta. Her design was fine, so I didn't feel the need to redesign her, and her colors fit well with Cellia's aesthetic
Oh yeah, intro Rosetta is actual Rosetta now too \o/-

It’s great knowing this game is being worked on and already getting into the testing portion of the development, I can’t wait to see all the changes and the hard work you guys are putting into the game!
Also can’t leave without asking a question. For Ruby which characters, except for those in v5 obviously, were the most challenging to redesign if any were difficult at all? If that question goes under spoiler territory then just ignore this lol
Honestly? It was all pretty easy for me, aha. Having a ton of OC's of my own makes me feel confident in character designing, so I didn't really have a hard time with it! The lowkey exception were the Crescent and Black Fox grunts, which took a while for me to care to make redesigns for them lmao, I was considering leaving them as they were (albeit, a bit polished,) until I gave into my own perfectionism.
Getting intoDemon Slayer really had an influence on the Black Fox redesigns, tbh, and with that I remade crescent as well~This has nothing to do with the Q, but I thought it'd be funny to add that Caz literally just told me to go wild and revamp anything I wanted to, haha

Try using the regular game file. Game-z isn't compatible with everything, but regular Game might work. However, there still might be slight lag with regular Game in bigger maps.
