UberTrainerRebornZ Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) FROM THE PERSON WHO MADE POKÉMON NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, AND WEST ON THE POKÉCOMMUNITY FORUMS... A Pokémon Essentials Fangame designed to celebrate the 30th Anniversaries of both Pokémon and Tamagotchi, to celebrate the best of the fans of both franchises, to serve as a massive love letter for both franchises and fan games in general, and to prove that the latter isn't completely overshadowed by the Digimon they inspired! HOW THIS IDEA CAME TO BE It was a foggy November night, and I was wondering what sprite project to do next after my big success, Pokémon North, South, East, and West, as next year is Pokémon's 30th Anniversary. Initially thinking of doing a region based off Neopets, and then one off Australia, I then realized that next year is also the 30th anniversary of Tamagotchi, and I was instantly struck with a storm of ideas! However, I am no good at using Pokémon Essentials, and my past experiences with RPG Maker shows I'm only good at making items, enemies, party members, attacks, and status effects: Not so much on the actual scripting side of it...I currently had managed to finish front sprites of all of the new Pokémon and their forms, and written the game's story in full, alongside all the new moves and abilities introduced. So, I am calling for help to make this project a reality. Now, I know for sure this likely won't be finished before Pokémon's 30th Anniversary on February the 27th, and maybe not before Tamagotchi's 30th anniversary on November the 23rd, as I've got loads of other projects to do in the meantime including doing education...But maybe with the community's help, who knows? THE STORY SO FAR: Over to a new unknown Tamagotchi, "Kyatchi", to explain everything.... "Ah, sorry to have kept you all waiting…*moves onto the scene* My name…is Kyatchi. I…have come to make an announcement for everyone, the whole planet! So, you might be wondering why I invited you all here. Well...Following the end of the Tamagottsun, there's been reports of mysterious creatures appearing all over the Tamagotchi Planet. These creatures possess a mysterious power that is beyond anything that we've ever seen here...such power could change the Planet in more ways than we could ever imagine. They came in all shapes and sizes...and some of them looked awfully like the Tamagotchi Planet's residents. I wonder if the Tamagottsun's end was what brought them into the planet itself. These beasts have a wide variety of behaviours, and some might bring forth catastrophe if left unchecked. However, the scientists of Mame City have recently discovered that these creatures can shrink in size at command and fit right into your pocket. Thus, they have dubbed these creatures "Pocket Monsters"... or "Pokémon" for short. Now...*pulls out a Poké Ball* After budding inventor Mametchi discovered the potential of these creatures, he had invented a device that can not only force a Pokémon to shrink into it, but also tame it instantly. And once tamed, the Pokémon will trust you and fight by your side for life. He has dubbed this device, the "Poké Ball". Now, this device is intended to be distrubuted to all shops as I speak, and it will hopefully pave a future where Pokémon and Tamagotchi live in harmony...Oh, and one more thing. Whatever you do...do not throw this device at another Tamagotchi or yourself. It's currently untested against those...Now, as for me... I have come...because I have an idea. I have decided to use these Pokémon...to determine who this planet's true saviour is. Sponsored by the Gotchi King, I have created...the Gotchi Mon Royale! This experience is designed to take you across the planet's beauty and witness how strong these Pokémon can be at the same time...and show that your past feats were not merely flukes. You will work with your Pokémon and use your talents to bolster their power, working your way from the minor Tama Rank...all the way to the coveted Royal Rank, the rank that will decide...the Tamagotchi Planet's Champion." But it's not all calm here on Tamagotchi Planet...a mysterious Legendary Pokémon known as "Amestra" has been running across the planet for years, having landed ten years prior to "The Big Race"...it appears that this Psychic/Dragon type Pokémon has been running for a reason, being chased by a familiar black fog...and it has something to do with the Tamagotchi Planet and the Earth itself. Is Amestra truly the Tamagotchi Planet's saviour as everyone expected? Or is it up to something truly sinister? FEATURES: Travel on a Pokémon Journey across the Tamagotchi Planet! Visit many of it's locations from the virtual pets, the anime, and the video games alike in a detailed ten chapter long story, as you climb up the Gotchi Mon Royale's ranks and find out the truth behind Amestra, and the Pokémon sent seemingly to hunt it down, alongside a mysterious cult of living eggs known only as "The Purity Rebirth"... We won't spoil it to you too much, but some notable places you'll get to visit include Celebria, Dream Town, and Devil Land! Catch, train, and raise the perfect harmony between Pokémon and Tamagotchi! The Tamagotchi Planet has it's own regional dex of 431 Pokémon, of which 185 of them are new, alongside eleven new regional forms! These Pokémon are based off Tamagotchi characters from nearly every source you can imagine! Every Pokémon, even the returning ones, has it's own new Pokédex entry written in third person by none other than Principal Mimizu himself! Walking Pokémon also make a comeback here.... Choose between the Grass-type Kuchiroll, the Fire-type Memlash, or the Water-type Mamin to start off your Pokémon journey! Play as one of 15 characters! Play as one of 15 different Tamagotchi from the franchise, each one having their own unique rivals and personal events: Dialogue also changes depending on who you are. It's like having 15 games in one! You can play as either Mametchi, Kuchipatchi, Memetchi, Kuromametchi, Lovelitchi, Melodytchi, Himespetchi, Moriritchi, Coffretchi, Candy Pakupaku, Yumemitchi, Kiraritchi, Pianitchi, Miraitchi, or Clulutchi. Yes, all of those are real Tamagotchi! Introducing Cheer Abilities! For once, you are no longer merely giving commands to your Pokémon, you fight alongside them! You can use a unique ability alongside your move that is different with every character you play as. Once you use it, it goes on cooldown for three turns. For example, Mametchi's ability damages all enemy Pokémon for a fixed amount of damage equal to the level of the Pokémon using it. Introducing Biomerge! Once you've progressed far enough into your Pokémon Journey, you gain the ability to merge with your active Pokémon to show the true bond between a Pokémon and a Tamagotchi! While Biomerged, your Pokémon's stats get a massive boost, they become immune to all status changes and stat drops, and you get to use your Cheer Ability every turn! But be careful, for if you get knocked out while Biomerged, it's all over! Every character has a unique appearance when Biomerged. For example, this is what Mametchi's biomerged appearance looks like: It's the same for every Pokémon he merges with...but one. But, what do the other biomerged Tamagotchi look like? You'll have to see for yourself in the future... All previous gimmicks return! As you proceed through your Pokémon Journey, you'll eventually gain the Omni-Ring, which allows you to unlock Mega Evolution, and eventually Z-Moves, Dynamaxing, and Terastalization! This fangame brings in 41 new Mega Evolutions, 11 new Gigantamax forms, and 11 new signature Z-Moves! One of the new Mega Evolutions you'll encounter in this fangame is Mega Weavile! Possessing razor sharp claws that are said to make anything struck by them feel death itself, Mega Weavile ditches it's Ice-typing to become a pure Dark-type, allowing it to take on Rock and Fire-types more easily! Meanwhile, one of the new Gigantamax Forms you'll see is Gigantamax Vileplume! Dynamax energy has powered up it's flower to the point that the body itself is merely a vessel for this larger flower. It's G-Max Pollen Cannon Inflicts the target with either Sleep, Paralysis, or Bad Poison! Experience new moves and abilities! Pokégotchi Endless Dreams brings 21 new moves and nine new abilities to the table: Can you master them all? One new move you'll see in this fangame is Emotional Rage, a Physical Fire-type move that gains power for every turn the user has been on the field, designed to punish long games! Pokémon Contests make a return! The Hoenn Pokémon Contests make their grand comeback in the Tamagotchi Planet! Buff your Pokémon's contest stats by feeding them Poffins made from the berries you gather across the region, then enter them into Contests to dazzle the crowd! The coveted Master Rank Ribbon is at reach... Of course, that also means that growing berries is back! Don't worry, there aren't any pests to fend off this time.... A completely new soundtrack! Listen to a vast array of new songs, a massive majority of them being remixed from past tracks from the Pokémon and Tamagotchi franchises, some more obscure than others... You'll also find a few familiar songs from other games are back as well...you'll have to see for yourself when the game is finished to find out what tracks you can hear! Animated cutscenes! Some of the cutscenes in this game are animated just like the Pokémon and Tamagotchi Anime itself...funningly enough, both were animated by OLM, Inc.! Perhaps this will make us understand why Amestra, in the present day, is actually missing the purple gemstone on it's chest? Raise your own Tamagotchi in the game?! At a certain point in the game, you'll obtain a Tamagotchi Device that allows you to raise your own Tamagotchi in the game, even as you're going along! Each TamagotchI Device has it's own selection of characters from throughout the franchise, some more obscure than others. There are over 50 devices to collect in this game, each one having four adult characters: Can you raise em' all? A...special guest? Since Tamagotchi was the original inspiration for Digimon, it was only fitting to include a single Digimon in there...beware the mysterious Tamagotchi X, and his partner, the Psychic/Dragon type Magnamon! ROM Hack players might remember him from ROM hacks like Digimon Emerald, but I think this marks his debut in a Pokémon Essentials fangame! You may find he's got another trick up his sleeves too...but what is it? And who is this mysterious Tamagotchi X? Other features include: Take part in over 100 sidequests to complete, including a vast postgame Challenge the Battle Frontier in the postgame with six familiar facilities: Battle Tower, Battle Factory, Battle Arena, Battle Pyramid, Battle Hall, and Battle Castle Collect over 600 different kinds of Plushies, containing many characters from past monster taming games and the Pokémon franchise itself Play the game in either Normal Mode or Challenge Mode, and set a variety of limits, including a level cap and the ability to enforce rules for Nuzlockes, Monotype Runs, Egglockes, and Wedlockes Built in randomizer mode for a unique gameplay experience Gain several quality of life features, such as automatic Move Relearner, Pokémon Box Link, and the Judge Function Keep 15 Save Files at once, and transfer Pokémon between them ROLES NEEDED: I will require the following roles to get this project finished: Spriters (I've already made the front sprites for all of the new Pokémon) Mappers Programmers (Must know the latest version of Pokémon Essentials!) Sound Artists Storywriters/Game Balancers (I have a ten chapter tale ready but it needs reviewing!) Animators In addition, all roles are required to research the Tamagotchi franchise, most notably the Tamagotchi Anime! (Yes, they had an anime, and it didn't deserve to be obscure) VIEW THE DATABASE: The below link leads to all of the work I have done so far, including the game's full story...or at least, it's initial version. You are free to have a look, but if you want to avoid being spoiled, do not read the story serial! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZW1ENH7O-diX4R1W6QYsrDABw5UU6V9qyuE-AGG2r0E/edit?usp=sharing JOIN THE DISCORD SERVER!: If you're willing to keep in touch with the fangame's updates, or want to join the project to help in it's completion, click on the link below! https://discord.gg/W2U2e9Evkv Edited 9 hours ago by UberTrainerRebornZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
