@DemICE thanks a lot! Hope we continue bringing pokemon of the same quality. @Felcatty have a nice recovery! I hope you get better soon. I agree with everything you said! Dislash's design is based on a therizinosaurus. It's not a very popular dino species, so we thought it needed some more love As for the rock on the leg near the rhino's head... I will never see this one the same way lol. anyway, we were thinking of altering the outlines a little but too for the rhino line. It's nice that you mentioned that. thanks a bunch!!

haha don't worry! We ask a lot of people about the sprites. Most of them said that the new bat sprite is way better, so we are going to keep it at that for now

I don't know if that's what you are looking for: http://pokemonessentials.wikia.com/wiki/Mini-games scroll down to the tile puzzles. The only thing you need to make yourself are the graphics. You can see a reference for how the graphics should be in your graphics->Pictures->Tile Puzzle folder. See the kabuto puzzle for example.

haha, the purple pixels are my bad, forgot to remove them the previous time you mentioned it So about the bat... you find it cute? Lol, I tried my best to make it look intimidating! Don't let its looks fool you. It's a really cunning pokemon! Spritingwise: Do you think changing the color on its feet to gray (like the color of its belly) would be better? As for the frog, thanks for the good job! We may end up keeping it the way you posted it. Love it! When I said that the Gym Leaders might use more than one certain type I wasn't necessarily speaking for this one. But who knows. You might have got it right Anyway, thanks for the quality feedback again! You have been a huge help so far!

woah, it's been a long time since we updated this thread! But don't worry! We haven't stopped working on this project. Over the last month the development was slower because of real life, but we are back at it again! So, for this update, I have some early encounters for you: originally, the bat had a different color but we decided to give it a more vampiric look! As for the frog, it doesn't actually wear a suit. It's the coloration of its belly like that. So, what are your thoughts on them? Would you feel bad when attacking our business frog? Also, I would like to present to you our first Gym Leader! Once a gangster, now a gym leader. Hatori left his old life back and climbed his way up to become one of the most respected individuals in his city. His battle style though hasn't changed. It remains merciless! You'd better not underestimate him! I don't want to spoil too much about him since a lot of things will be revealed in the game. You can make guesses on what type of pokemon he uses and stuff like that if you want In our game, gyms won't necessarily be one-type exclusive. Some Gym Leaders may use more than one type of pokemon. We are trying to keep the battles hard and fair at the same time. Expect lots of custom field effects! Finally, I would like your opinion on this: left or right? We have asked a lot of people this question and we don't have a clear winner yet... Whichever is the final choice, @Felcatty will be credited for her suggestion and coloration of the sprite. Anyway, we hope to keep you updated more often from now on

oh I see. Makes sense! You seem to have put a lot of thought in this. Good luck with this project.

I remember your idea about mystics from your other post! It's great that you continue working on it, adding new stuff and changing others. about the 2 main characters: Will they get the same screen time, or will the one from the past be used so as to reveal some needed information to the player from the past? Personally, I would prefer the later since the constant switching from past to present and vice versa might get a bit tiresome. But it might be just me about mystics: Apart from seeing a mystic fusing with a pokemon, are there any other features that indicate that person is actually a mystic? I am quite curious since both the government and the terrorist group knew that Sofia was a mystic while she didn't even know it herself. All in all, this sounds really interesting. Keep up the good job and don't worry about the slow progress. Good things require time!

It's great to see more new projects poping up! I like your ideas of changing the gym system. It's quite refreshing! I have a question though. Will all the trainers that come to this region have to start a pokemon journey anew? I mean it would be kinda weird to see Steven and Cynthia with starter pokemon and stuff. Or will you come to this region with a "ready to battle" team? Anyway, I like your ideas and of course your artwork! If you need any help with eventing in RPG Maker, you should consider checking atomic reactor's videos. They helped me a lot. Here is a link to them: Another channel worth checking is that of thundaga. Here is a link for it too: I am currently working on an other fangame, so I can't really be an active member of your project, but if you need any help, feel free to ask. I can script and sprite a little bit. Continue being passionate about what you are doing!

It's ok dude We are happy you expressed your opinion on the designs! Our fakemon will get better and better as time passes and we get more experienced in spriting.

Thanks guys! We will work on the things you mentioned. @Felcatty I really like your color selection for the wolf. We might end up using it @Noctelis It was a bit intentional for the tree to be stiff, since it's a tree and trees are... stiff But if this looks bad, we will edit it!

Are you talking about all the new ones or are you talking about some of them? It would be nice to know which ones are not like pokemon so as to work on them again...

take a look at this: https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=327488 It might help

For your issue try this: pbAddPokemon( PBSpecies::BUTTERFREE,100) You just open the parenthesis on the first line and continue on the next one. It works for me Keep up the good job!

This sounds really interesting! Good luck with your project. If I weren't working on another game, I would join you on this one. If you want any help with rpg maker or with some coding, I can help you. But don't expect too much... Anyway, I hope your game turns out great!

@Felcatty Thanks a lot This is actually really encouraging for us to continue our project! Hmmm... those critical hits when the opponent is in red hp is a really common thing, huh? Happens to me all the time, too!

Thanks a lot for the feedback! I get what you are saying about the black outlines, we will try to get rid of them How did you notice the 1x1 pixels at the fire starter? Lol, I tried to hide it. This one was originally made with 2x2 pixels but it turned out a bit smaller than we wanted. So I just went and resized it. Anyway, thanks a lot for the reply! We will do our best to make them as good as possible. Have you seen the trainer class feature that's going to be included in the game? If so, what are your thoughts on it?

here is the txt file for the items in essentials. Just replace your old file with this! items.txt

go to your PBS Files folder and go to items.txt. There replace the first line with this: 1,REPEL,Repel,1,350,An item that prevents weak wild Pokémon from appearing for 100 steps after its use.,2,0,0, This should fix this error

I agree with the others about the short version. That way you can hear the players' opinion and improve your content for the next version.

There lots of great fan games out there! I really enjoyed playing every game that I tried so far but two of them stand out the most. 1) Pokemon Reborn. There are a lot of reasons for this choice. The idea for field effects, every different character has each own personality, it touches a wide variety of topics and although it's a difficult game, I wouldn't say it's unfair. 2)Pokemon Uranium. Loved the fakemon there, the new type had a really interesting concept, great music and the story was awesome! It wasn't that challenging, apart from certain battles, but that didn't bother me at all. It actually inspired me to add fakemon in the game I am trying to create!

Most of fan games are made in rpg Maker xp and pokemon essentials. To get started I would recommend you to watch some tutorials on youtube. I found atomic reactor's tutorials really helpful. You should check them out here:

Oh, I didn't see the edit Thanks for working on it! I really like the white-gold combo in this! Although there is a little issue. I will PM you because I don't want to spoil some things here

Well, actually we didn't recolor the cover pokemon. We might consider changing it when we reveal it whole. Some parts of it are hidden by our game's logo so you still haven't seen the whole thing Edit: Nevermind, I didn't actually see uberle's work

Love these! Do you make them from scratch?

Haha! This got me interested! I always felt bad for turning certain pokemon to HM slaves. Hope your ideas help bring equality to all pokemon!
