  1. Item crafting is pretty cool. It'd be interesting if certain moves are needed to catalyze the item crafting process. Make the game revolve around being the best item crafter (or if I call it in my term, the best alchemist in Pokemon world) instead of being the best trainer. There is tournament to demonstrate the alchemist capabilities of using item in battle. A lot of custom items will be available which the opponent can use as well and throughout the game we have to collect recipes to craft a better item to win the tournament. The evil team would be a group who wants to create a ultimate item (like, philosopher's stone) but it requires the legendaries power. Anyway, this script allow you to craft items although I have not seen a fan-game which use it: https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=346573
  2. I wonder if it's possible now to invent a new trope. It feels like all story tropes has been invented and there is no room for invention for our generation...

      Most tropes aren't necessarily invented, more like "discovered", though not in the way we think of it. When something gains enough traction or notoriety, then it sometimes rises into the level of tropes. Rei Ayanami expies for example. I'm pretty sure it would be very difficult to create a new trope, because the surge of mass media makes it so that many people have already explored nearly all forms of it, thus making sure that tropes are somehow "discovered"/invented.

  3. [REDACTED]-type. The type's effectiveness varied depend on the Pokemon's individual value.

    So, basically Hidden Power but as a type. Thus, gaining Hidden Power its own type instead of Normal. Is this OP?

  4. First, congrats for having the courage to develop a game. Many people have ideas but most of them don't have the courage to realize it due to the sheer work of developing a game. If you are more of an idea/writer person than a developer person, I'd suggest you to become part of other team instead of insisting to lead a project--considering how your real life work require you to travel often. I believe that there are people out there who is looking for an idea or writer to polish their game. Here's one recruiting thread I found: Other options is to try develop the game yourself which you must learn yourself. This channel should help you how to start: Anyway, good luck and hope your dream comes true~
  5. Hardcore: http://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/22500-pokemon-reborn-hardcore-moddiscontinued/ Redux: http://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/30578-pokemon-reborn-redux-moddemo-released/ Hardcore is discontinued and will be replaced by Redux while Redux is still WIP so you have the time to wait~
  6. Ooh, I know Rainbow Field is great. My grass-team has proven that, never swapped team members since Serra. Anyway, your team looks pretty solid. You should try Hardcore/Redux mod for more challenge~
  7. I hope Gen IV remake will feature Arceus just like how Rayquaza featured in Delta Episode.

      I got a feeling they'll retcon Arceus into an UB.

    3. Phi-Bi

      ^ This. Perhaps Arceus is the shaper of 'player' dimension while every other dimension--UB Dimension, will have its own creator similar like Arceus, just saying. I don't know, the moment GF announce UB I got this feeling that Pocket Monster series will end soon and continued by a series about alien...just random thought.

      Pokémon's sure going into a weird direction recently.

       

      I'm curious if Ame has any plans in case of major retcons to Arceus or if there would be even any need for them. (It'd be funny if the whole god Arceus thing would just fall flat on it's face. Imagine El's reaction to that.)

  8. You may want to hack yourself a Celebi as starter, its level-up moves selection is quite shallow and given how limited TMs are in-game, its movepool selection will be quite limited so I hope it compensates for its position as mythical Pokemon. You can also bring a prominent Pokemon which represent each timeline cultures such as Aegislash, Escavalier to represent medieval times; Beheeyem, Magnezone, or Ultra Beast to represent futuristic timeline; Fossil to represent prehistoric timeline. There are plenty of choices actually. More choices than monotype, I believe. Honestly, I feel that a time-traveler team fit Rejuvenation more story-wise but it's your playthrough so good luck!
  9. I forgot to mention that the length of the first episode also depends on the story as in tv show/anime's episode~
  10. I prefer the 3 gym demo mainly because you can get feedback sooner and you will have fewer job in improving old content for later demo.
  11. It's crazy and ironic that sometimes I feel that fictional works told more "truth" of the realm than our newsletter.

    1. FairFamily

      FairFamily

      I'm not surprised actually.

  12. Writing villain creep me out since it reveals the darkest part of me. I keep saying to myself, how could I come up with such disgusting act? It's interesting though~

    1. U-M

      U-M

      I have to stop myself pretty often when I'm practicing my joker imitation. It just rambles and gets really dark really fast....

  13. Spoiler

    Maybe Ame is right about that joke. Maybe Ep. 17 should be delayed and fused with Ep. 18 to satisfy people. Regardless, I really like the branching in this episode. I love BOTH paths. Should have done this kind of story long time ago~

     

  14. How much time have passed in Reborn Region since Ep.1? One month? One year? What do you think?

    1. Dreamy

      Dreamy

      I think it's probably a couple months. the time passage is always a bit wierd, but I think the area where it matters most is when you're stuck up north. because a pretty substantial time has to pass over the whole thing for the entire city to get majorly renovated and the lake to be cleaned etc, and yet only a few days can pass between getting samsons badge and surf, and getting waterfall and going into the WTC with Titania, which is a massive chunk of stuff.

  15. I think it's not a matter of immorality. Immorality will always exist in Pokemon games whether the main games or fan-one. That's why there's villain right? I think it's a matter of censorship. Now I've been thinking for a while but does Reborn has a censorship rating? Sure everyone knows Reborn is not a game for kids but I found Reborn accidentally without knowing that the game will be dark at the first place so I think it's nice to have some kind of 'rating' as a 'warning' for people who potentially not comfortable with the atmosphere. Sure, Reborn is good but even the most amazing games in the world cannot please everyone~
  16. Why people hate Ash-Greninja? Is it because of the design or because the concept of trainer-Pokemon sync is bad?

      my reason is simple: It was a nice concept that they fucked up in both the naming and making it exclucive to greninja. Like, why not give more starters that don't have a mega Battle Bond? Like Infernape or something?

      And it doesn't help at all that the thing is even more broken than a mega, and it allows you to use a mega. Playing Monotype was what really ruined it for me because when it got banned there there were people bitching about it getting banned. You heard me correctly: People were bitching about their type losing the second mega on the team while there were types who had to still work without mega's.

      Ah, so it's alright to have trainer-pokemon synchronization as features then. Honestly, I really like the concept of Ash-Greninja. Pokemon games should involve trainer more tbh. Trainers should not be immortal since they are people too who can get exhausted. It'd be neat for trainer to have HP-stat in game for more immersion actually~

    4. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      the concept isn;t too bad. just decrease the stat upgrades or and give some other mons the ability. or hile your add it give it so some mons with a mega~

  17. I hope the starters get some kind of theme for their evolutions, just like how Gen V starter has royalty as a theme or like how Gen VI and VII have RPG class as their theme.
  18. I'm so annoyed that my idea has been used by other media, not just the general idea but also the details, and such media turns out to be AMAZING! Now if I'm going to use my idea it won't be so original even though I have spent my time doing research to get inspirations. What to do, sigh...

    1. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      Who cares if it's original? And maybe if they started using that idea as well, maybe they have also been researching it for quite a while

    2. GenEric

      maybe you can ride along the waves?

      If someone realizes that my idea is way too similar, people will sue me for plagiarism or at least they'll start to compare. Anyway, thanks for your feedback, they make me calm down a bit Yes, what I need is calm down and then find ways to distinguish my ideaa, time for a break, I guess~

  19. Hi, english speaker what is the antonym for "arid" when "arid" means something dull? Could the word "vivid" chosen as the opposite since "arid and vivid" sounds nice as a pair?

    1. HongaarseBeer

      HongaarseBeer

      I'd say 'interesting' or 'vibrant' when referring to the antonym of arid when arid is defined as 'something dull'

    2. HongaarseBeer

      HongaarseBeer

      But I guess 'vivid' is also fine

    3. Phi-Bi

      ah, sorry for late reply but thanks for the help~

  20. So many interesting news today from volcanic eruption to intercontinental ballistic missiles. This world is edgy.

    1. SilverAngelus

      SilverAngelus

      Agreed. Wish I was in Kalos right now.

  21. Creepy things are not new for GF. Remember about Lavender creepypasta? I guess this is a new take for that, given how numerous the amount of nostalgia in this gen is.
  22. Some Pokemon Reborn's resources like Pokemon sprites are free to use provided credits is given but you can ask Ame for further details. (I believe that the characters's sprites should not be used. Not sure about the scripts.) Well, Pokemon Reborn is nearly finished but Ame planned to make another game--an original series: Starlight Divide so I think the fun doesn't end here~ Plus, with Reborns' completion you are free to make any mod without being wary about major changes from previous episodes.
  23. Most fan-games are made with RPG Maker XP with Pokemon Essentials as the starter kit. You need to familiarize yourself with RPG Maker XP if you really want to learn. There are several RPG Maker XP tutorials on YouTube. Once you get the basic, you should have easier time using Pokemon Essentials. My tip is try making a small game first (around 2-4h of gameplay) before making any attempt a full-scale game. If you want examples, "Pokemon: Attack On" series is a good example of such short games. After that, you could decide if you want to make a full-scale game (like Uranium and Insurgence which has been completed, or Reborn which is nearly finished).
  24. I view Dragonite as an evolution is Dragonair's adaption for harsher environment hence Multiscale as Hidden Ability. I love beautiful and slender dragon as Dragonair's evolution, not as Dragonite but as branch evolution or regional variant~
