Hello, gentle denizens of the much-ravaged internet. The age is long and dark, and little end is in sight. Nothing I have to say can change that for you. But I do have a small update to a video game which can maybe help keep the ennui at bay. Will you accept that? no, no new gens sorry not sorry Today's update is a long time coming, having been forged by our hard at work new team under the capable management of enu, plus some not insignificant help from generous benefactors and patricians of talent within the community. Much love to you all. The focus of this update is primarily on quality of life improvements; it is not a content update. Legacy 19.0 downloads are available on the download page for those seeking to play with older mods. But if modding is your thing, please consider checking out enu's new suite of mod tools, available here: https://github.com/enumag/eevee/releases And if you are experienced with modding or game dev and the idea of helping out sounds good to you, please consider checking out the community cooperation initiative and maybe applying! Anyway, have some changelog. It is not complete, because no list of words can ever equate to the monumental amounts of work the team has put in. But it does have some neat Tidbits. And finally, some parting notes on updating, including a list of places that you probably don't want to update. And by "you probably don't want to update" I mean "we definitely don't want you to update there" and "if you do that and break your game and then complain to us, we will throw metaphorical tomatoes at you". Okay. Downloads are on the download page. We'll have more for you in the future. Not more story content... The game's done. But we're still cooking, and fam we got some Chefs up in here. Much love, have fun... stay safe out there. You dressed warm, right? Did you bring a snack? Okay. Just checking... Until next time.34 points

Hey hey, it's my first time using this forum so idk if it is the right place to post this kind of stuff or not. After few weeks on total of working on this project, it's finally done and I'm sharing it now ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ Before this, please keep in mind some of this stuff: The character obviously doesn't belong to me, so credit for the respective owner from reborn's developer Remember that this is a fan work, so don't expect it to be as good as the official one Might contain spoiler for Reborn This sprite takes so long to be made, idek how the developers manage to create thousands of sprites for the game (no wonder it takes years to be updated) so remember to appreciate our developer y'all ヽ(•‿•)ノ Phew that's all, here's a link from google drive so it'll be easier to access the sprite (I hope): click here! If you actually read all of my commentary and yapping, wow...thanks so much, I appreciate your attention a lot <3<3 much much love!! If V14 onward release new sprite for the protag, I would really love to provide update for this sprite as well, but I doubt that I'll even have free time from this point further. Sadly, it'll going to take much much longer to be updated :( If any of you discovered some weird stuff or problem, even as minor as a random dot or white bg or anything weird, please let me know so I can fix em in my drive ASAP (except the gearen news art, can't fix that). Also, feedback is welcomed! That's concluded my topic, have a great day and have fun playing with Lin! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ10 points

09/11/2024 Dev Blog This weeks post is going to be a little shorter than normal. This isn't due to lack of progress to show, but rather it's quite a big announcement, and I don't really want to bloat this post. Over all development has been going well. As mentioned in the Discord server, there are only 2 main maps left to design and add, and 1 other that needs to be overhauled, once that's done, it's on to interiors, and other smaller maps, then eventing and finishing up writing, and sorting out anything left over. Hopefully we can get this done in a reasonable timeframe! Speaking of map overhauls, I have a map overhaul to show. I've teased and shown the Highlands before, but to be honest, it wasn't that great, the map itself was somewhere around 150 x 180 in size, which, is a little bit too big. I also didn't really utilize that space very well, and it felt very flat and boring, so, I went ahead and redid it entirely. Here is the old map teaser for example: I'll be honest, I didn't really know what I was doing when I made that map. It was the first tileset I had made, as well as the first giant mountain map too, so of course, it wasn't great. With that beside us however, the overhauled map, in my opinion at least, looks a lot better. So, introducing Silverlein Highlands The original idea of this map is still there; it's a big mountain range that has you traversing through caves and windy pathing to reach a destination, this time it's not just a straight path though! Silverlein is the main location for Renegades, Outcasts, and sometimes even Exiles, with the village being located to the north of the main location. From here, you will be able to traverse to the Silverlein Swamps, or hike up to the Silverlein Summit. Who knows what's all the way up there... I managed to get this one done is a reasonable amount of time, which is surprising, since the original map took almost 3 weeks to finish, so that's a plus. Mapping hell is almost over! Additionally, we finished clearing up the inactive teams, which opened 4 new slots, all of which have already been filled with some great new members. So, all of the slots are full, right? Well... for now, maybe, this might change with what's coming next. Ayrien Ralts, and its evolutions come from the Ayrei region, and is the signature Pokemon of Nephele. Both Gardevoir and Gallade are Flying types. Gardevoirs Abilities: Gale Wings, Lightning Rod, Telepathy Gallades Abilities: Gale Wings, Sharpness, Justified As for Vanguard, in version 4.0, you will be able to find and obtain 4 of our Aevian forms! Aevian Scolipede, Sawsbuck, Gogoat, and Pyroar Movesets and Abilities are subject to change per Vanguard balancing standards obviously. Depending on how this collaboration goes, we may end up opening a 4th slot for each field. We will monitor activity and demand, and if its deemed necessary, we will do so. So stay tuned! That's it for this post, I'm sorry it was a short one, but hopefully the announcement justifies it! We will continue to work hard, and feature more exciting content down the line!

PLEASE MAKE A POST IN THIS THREAD IF YOU HAVE ISSUES WITH ANY OF THESE MODS. I check on discord about once a year, more or less; hence, your best chance to get help from me is to come here, in the forum. (In case you're wondering, SWM stands for "Select Weather Mod": this was its name before it became a modpack, and when it came the time to rename it... I actually didn't ) (Btw I'm not crazy nor that original... it's somewhat of a citation, as this is literally how Trumpkin got his nickname) This modpack is for Pokemon Reborn; if you're looking for a Rejuvenation-compatible version, you can find it here: http://www.rebornevo.com/forum/index.php?/topic/33807-rejuvenation-modular-modpack-v11-patch-3/ You can also find this modpack's files versioned on GitHub: https://github.com/Waynolt/SWM-modular-modpack FAQ "Why is there no longer the mod XXX?" > It's a password in the base game now. "I can't find it in the passwords" > Look better; I've decided to not port a couple of mods, but 90% of the missing ones are in the base game now. Installation Download link: (v92 - updated 05/01/2025) https://github.com/Waynolt/SWM-modular-modpack/releases/latest/download/SWM_modular_modpack_E19.zip The link above will allow you to download a .zip archive. Inside of that archive you will find a "Readme.pdf" explanatory file and a "Mods" folder. To install, just drop the folder "Mods" into the folder "[Pokemon Reborn]\patch\" (At the end you should have a "[Pokemon Reborn]\patch\Mods" folder with a bunch of files inside.) This video from Lostelle explains it, showing each step required (it's a bit outdated - for example the location changed - but it's still good): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hc3Mo432C0 If playing on a Mac with Wineskin, then, as @Tacos suggests in this thread, do all the modding in a Reborn folder outside of the wrapper and then make a new wrapper with that folder (I have absolutely no idea whether this still applies though) Every component is stand-alone, and can be used on its own; please refer to the "brief summary" below for more info on each one. -------------------------------------------------- Brief summary of each mod component (Please remember to check and delete the components you do not want when you are installing this mod pack!) -------------------------------------------------- Compatibility with other mods Known incompatible mods: Already compatible, no patch needed: Probably compatible, or at least they used to be: If there's any I forgot about, sorry; simply ask about them. -------------------------------------------------- Changelog -------------------------------------------------- For previous Reborn episodes:6 points

Heyo! Rejuvenation has a lot of custom assets, and we're more than happy to share them with others so they can serve as a base for other people's projects! However, not everything can be used freely. A certain amount of the custom assets were specifically made for use in Rejuvenation only, and we'd like to keep it that way. We've been getting the question quite frequently lately about what can and cannot be used for people's own projects as it's not fully clear on all fronts, so I decided to put together a comprehensive guide on the matter so you can always check what you can and cannot use! IMPORTANT NOTE: Usage of assets in mods for Reborn and Desolation as well as mods for non-Pokémon games is fine, as long as it is used in a context that involves Rejuvenation specifically and isn't passed off as anything else. It is also fine to use the original tracks in videos as background music, as long as it's not a standalone upload of the song. Usage of any and all assets in the game for mods made specifically for Rejuvenation is completely fine and does not need special permission. Please credit the Rejuvenation Team if you decide to use any of our assets. Thank you! -------------------------------------------------------------------- Field effects Fully free to copy and use. Audio/Music LIMITED USE: The following tracks are not allowed to be used in other fangames: All tracks listed here were custom made for the game (or were given explicit permission to exclusively be used in Rejuvenation) and therefore are not to be used in other fangames. Everything else is free to copy and use. Animations The End Of Night animation is not allowed to be directly copied/used in other games. This one speaks for itself. The assets for it are found in the Characters folder but it counts as an animation—Everything else is fully free to copy and use. Tilesets/Autotile Fully free to copy and use. We do however highly recommend creating your own assets for these in the long run to give your game more of its own unique identity. Battle system LIMITED USE: The things related to the battle system that you aren't allowed to copy over to other games are: The battle UI This includes the boss hp bars—please make your own graphics for this. The shields/type bar is fine to copy over. Moves unique to Rejuvenation (i.e. Arenite wall, Desert's mark etc.)—though this is mostly in name only (see Crests on our stance on the matter.) Ideally you don't use the same move animation as the ones in Rejuvenation either for moves that are just renames, but it's not really a requirement. The exception to this is Cthonic Malady and the petrify effect—we'd like to keep this exclusive to Rejuvenation if possible. Rejuvenation-exclusive custom Pokémon (i.e. Aevian Forms, Rift Pokémon, Karma Beasts, etc.) Field effects are fully free to copy and use. Battlebacks LIMITED USE: The battle backgrounds that aren't allowed to be copied over to other games are: Cave battle backgrounds Forest battle backgrounds Zeight battle backgrounds Grand Dream City battle backgrounds Beach battle backgrounds Blacksteeple battle backgrounds School battle backgrounds Colosseum battle background Concert field backgrounds are exempt due to them intrinsically being tied to the Concert field effect having different stages. Everything else is free to copy and use, including the enemy- and player bases. Pokémon sprites/icons LIMITED USE: Rejuvenation-exclusive custom Pokémon (i.e. Aevian Forms, Rift Pokémon, Karma Beasts, etc.) are NOT allowed to be directly copied/used in other (fan)games. Regular/official Pokémon sprites and icons are free to copy and use, including those of newer generations. Character sprites LIMITED USE: Named NPC sprites (VS/Battle/Overworld) are not allowed to be directly copied over to other games. You can use the sprites as a base to work from and edit, but they should be unrecognizable compared to the character they were edited from—so no recoloring a sprite slightly and calling it a day. Generic characters and trainer classes (Battle/Overworld) are free to copy and use. Other assets in the characters folder (Pokémon and objects/animations) are free to copy and use. We do however highly recommend creating your own assets for these in the long run to give your game more of its own unique identity. Fogs Fully free to copy and use. Fonts LIMITED USE: Please do not copy over the Garufan-Regular font to other games. Everything else is free to copy and use. Items LIMITED USE: Crests are not allowed to be directly copied/used in other (fan)games—But we obviously can't and shouldn't stop people from making enhancement items for specific Pokémon since that'd be turbo stupid, so it really is just specifically calling them crests and using the same icons/terminology for that that we'd prefer that others don't use. Use your own unique ideas and assets for them! Maps Maps are not allowed to be copied. Please map your own areas when making your own game. Panoramas Fully free to copy and use—but it's recommended to not use the location-based panoramas... For obvious reasons. Pictures LIMITED USE: Examples of assets in this folder that you are not allowed to directly copy over to other games: All custom character/CG artwork (including the title screens) Battle UI (see Battle System for more info) Character select graphics Intro cutscene graphics Difficulty select graphics There's a lot more that you probably shouldn't copy over, so I won't extend the list too far, but most of it should be pretty obvious that you shouldn't carry these over to other games. The best thing you can do is use your common sense and delete most of the Rejuvenation-specific assets that are in the folder when using Rejuvenation as a base. Windowskins Fully free to copy and use. -------------------------------------------------------------------- If you still have any questions about usage of specific assets, feel free to ask about it below! Good luck with your projects! o76 points

02/14/2025 Dev Blog Welcome to 2025! We're a little late... but don't worry! Progress has been moving along smoothly since the start of the New Year, with most forms being finalized, and general important assets near completion. With the progress that we've made so far, we are on-track for release this year as planned. (As long as v14 doesn't ruin EVERYTHING). As for story writing, I am pleased to announce that Act 1 of Renegade has been finished, and is now being internally tested by the development team! So far, the act is around three and a half hours long for story content alone. This does not include in-depth exploration, side quests, and does not factor how long it takes to complete fights. Act 2, 3, and postgame are intended to be longer, so we can definitely confirm that there will be no shortage of playtime. Act 1 of Paragon will be worked on next, and will not take as long to develop as Act 1 of Renegade, due to some eventing overlaps. From there, we will work on Act 2, and Act 3 of Renegade at the same time, and potentially Postgame as well. From there, we will wrap up Paragon, finalize and sidequests, music tracks, and any other outstanding assets, and hopefully get into a full on internal testing, and beta testing. Thank you all for your patience as we develop all of this! We are excited to showcase the story upon release. Now for actual content to showcase, here's come screenshots from around Aeternus's local businesses, and a new Aevian Form. Second cNPC Submissions About a week ago, we announced that people can submit for a second cNPC within the mod (We need more residents) This is still active, and the guidelines for this are posted in our Discord. I won't be going into it too much on this post, as we have everything needed to be mentioned in the announcements channel. And for this posts form, we have: Aevian Salandit / Salazzle Design & Art by IronicOmens Dark, Dark/Fairy Type Salandit: Native to the Voidal Chasm, these creatures are often compared to Murkrow for their similar fascination with shiny trinkets. Salazzle: Experts at navigating the Voidal Chasm, they'll approach lost people and escort them out. However, these people have found themselves absent of any valuables after being guided away from the Chasm. That's all I have for this post. On the shorter side again, but with story writing, we're definitely limited as to what we can share, so I'll see if I can tease some story content next post! Make sure to check our Discord for semi-regular teasers, and out of context stuff that we post. See you all next time! Overseer Files Discord5 points

Humour me. "Madame X" is obviously the big ticket Da Mystery of the game, because her face is hidden from us and she's called Madame X, which is as "My name is a secret it's hidden woooooooooo" spooky name as it gets. This is despite the fact that actually, very rarely do any of the characters even care about who Madame X is under the mask, and there's even more pressing concerns like "What is Team Xen even trying to DO". Frankly, Madame X isn't even the most interesting character (I actually really dislike her first appearance lol), but even despite this she's STILL the big ticket mystery of the game. Despite this, there's a few things that we do know for sure about her. And I'm going to lead with something that some people try to find ways around, but I think there's just absolutely no way around it. Madame X is a Theolia sibling. Period. I do think we know this for sure. Madame X owns Blacksteeple Castle and an Yveltal. She addresses a mysterious "father" in Blacksteeple castle if her Yveltal loses. Melanie is basically Melia. She calls the same Yveltal, in Blacksteeple castle, "father". It's possible to say "Madame X was just referring to a completely different father", but like, no she wasn't. Let's be real. Can we be real here? I invoke the sacred right of a theorizer to say "Come on, man". Come on, man. This isn't the only evidence towards Madame X being a Theolia. She hates Indriad, as we see in literally the first 10 minutes of the game. She likes Maria and wants her to be safe - but can't save her... yet. So she tells her to be safe and wait. Where does her personal investment in those two come from if she's not one of the Theolia siblings? Madame X feels a mysterious "bond" with Melia, that allowed her to know deep down Melia wasn't really dead. Madame X mysteriously quoted Erin, exactly, to Maria. Erin said the "Don't you dare lose hope" lines to Maria, and the only people around to hear it were the Theolia siblings, Indriad, Anathea, annnnd... the Gardevoir I think. Except Alice and Allen and Maria were unconscious at the time, and also I think Alice and Allen had already been tossed into gen 2. So in reality, only FIVE people in ALL of Rejuvenation could've been reasonably said to have heard it. Madame X has a hatred of imprisonment, like on a visceral level. Madame X has an Yveltal in the first place. But Yveltal is Indriad, or at least Indriad is made up of an Yveltal and a Karma program stuffed together. Madame X must wear her armour. She told us this on the Pyramid. She was trying to trick us and pretend to be weak, but the part about wearing her armour was in the Important Yellow Text For When Things Are Really Really Important. We can assume it's true. Nastasia joined Team Xen because she was looking for her friend, which we know is Maria, and there's some implication I think of having even found her? Madame X basically believes existence is a cycle of suffering, which proves that Team Xen is actually a Buddhist Terrorist Cult who's simply following the Four Noble Truths but they replaced the Fourth one about "following the noble eightfold path" with "Just kill everyone until existence gets it right and stops being suffering". Madame X has a real investment in making history follow a certain path, and the power to do that because she has a Mysterious Artifact That Does it... that Melanie also has by the btw. Back in the Kugearen era, she saves Kanon from death, and forces the Interceptor to rewind their death to get it right. Here's something interesting. Madame X, in Chapter 12, is aware the Interceptor is the Interceptor. But she is not aware in Kugearen. Her speech is all about "What the fuck is so special about you?", and she implies strongly that this is something she's done over and over again. I have a suspicion she's basically savescumming until Team Xen wins using Time Travel, and that's necessary because she has to compete against Spacea and Tiempa trying to do the same thing to force the Interceptor onto a certain path Are we familiar with all of that? Good. Because here's something I've brought up before but I don't think people have really properly thought about, and I think it's the biggest clue to getting it right. Madame X made Clear, Kieran, and the Interceptor check up on Talon and make sure he's okay. Nobody ever really talks about this or thinks about it! And yet, isn't this the most out of character shit we've seen from Madame X ever? We know, because we can see in the future segments, that Madame X's plan is to kill everyone everywhere. Ren admits to M2 in his timeline that "Yeah maybe we'll all die but then we'll be reborn". The only people she's ever shown even an ounce of compassion for are Maria, and Pirate Valarie, and that was apparently just a visceral response to seeing people tied up. Everyone else she believes in Murder Forever. She was even disgusted by Melia reversing Melanie's corruption. So why does she have a soft spot for Talon? You know what else? Talon doesn't exist in previous versions of the game except as a totally offscreen character. That's actually an in universe fact. Talon becomes aware of it after Karma gets to him. So there can't even be an actual connection between Madame X and Talon that we could've seen in any of the actual timelines we've actually seen. And Clear actually gets pissed off about this. She basically says she can't understand why "The Master" - who I think by context with Clear, is clearly Madame X - is so invested in Talon. Madame X is well aware that Karma has infected Talon, so it's not about trying to find out about that. Clear becomes aware of it immediately. Clear suggests it's basically out of pure concern for Talon's welfare. Why? The fact is: Madame X, in this timeline, has never ever ever had the opportunity to know Talon ever, and it is in fact impossible since Talon confirms he didn't exist in previous iterations of Aevium. Despite this, Madame X not only knows about Talon, but cares about him? Well, you can only conclude one thing. Madame X isn't from this universe/timeline. I'm actually going to say she's from a fully parallel universe. Huh. Now wouldn't that be random? No, it wouldn't. I've said this before, but think about how Kieran and Clear are Xara and Jean, but from a parallel universe and as robots. Isn't that random? The answer is: No, it's actually vital and probably solves everything. Let's call this other universe the KCEverse, because Kieran, Clear, and Eden are from that universe... but they're not. In fact, neither Kieran, Clear, or Eden ever set foot in the KCEverse. Ever. They were built by somebody FROM the KCEverse. And they're quite clear that they're meant to be versions of the KCEverse's Xara and Jean. Let's call the person who escaped from the destroyed KCEverse The Escapee. Why? What's the point of that? I'm gonna answer that question with a question. What's the point of Madame X caring so much about Talon? Is there any connection between Talon, Xara, and Jean? We're told that the KCEverse was different, but the people were identical. That means that The Escapee (and Eden, for that matter) have versions of themselves in the universe we play. I've posted before about there probably being a big moonbase connection between Kieran and Clear and Variya and etc, but I kind of ended up dodging the ultimate question of who Madame X was, so I think now I can just come to a safe and definite conclusion - Madame X is the Escapee, who is the KCEverse's Erin. Madame X has to be a Theolia sibling. Madame X has to have a connection to the thing Erin explicitly said to Maria. Madame X hates Indriad. Madame X hates imprisonment - and you can infer from that she probably was imprisoned at some point, like, oh, I dunno, Erin? Erin hates Indriad to the point of calling herself The Devil. Got that? No? Let's get into it more deeply. Which of the Theolia siblings lived in Grand Dream City? Erin. Which of the Theolias could've had a chance to know and get attached to Xara, Jean, and Talon enough to care about them that much? Erin. Which of the Theolias could be smart enough to even conceive of getting Kieran, Clear and Eden built? Erin. And before anyone says "Saki could build them", not only is that subject to "Come on, man", it's been debunked by Zumi. Why would Madame X say exactly the same thing to Maria twice? Because they were two different versions of Erin saying it, one not being aware the other said it. Need more proof? When did Erin even debut in the games? 2017 was the release of V9, The City of Mystery. When has Madame X's identity been locked in from? Huh. What an odd coincidence! It's also 2017! Let's quote Zumi. Huh! Why only 2017? Now of course, it could be "Because everywhere else we spoke about it was on a completely different platform that doesn't have logs available"... but this sounds like Zumi went to some effort to confirm the date, and came up with 2017 in the end. See, 2017 is three years after Rejuvenation V1 first came out. It does imply that Madame X didn't have a real identity in those past versions (I believe it honestly). So, think about it - if she didn't, and you know you need a Big Reveal, what kind of Big Reveal for her identity might you come up with? How about "Melia's sister"? Oh, but you can't do that until you introduce a sister for Melia... and so you introduce Erin. Need more proof? Madame X must be a Theolia sibling, and yet people use the part where she said "My mother died trying to protect me" to prove that she wasn't - because Anathea definitely didn't die that way. But that was just the Anathea of the main universe. If Madame X is the escapee, then the fact that the main universe's Anathea died a different way wouldn't matter. There's another big objection. There's nobody that Erin hates more than Indriad, and yet when she loses, she says "Father, I have lost..." which seems to prove she still respects and answers to Indriad, right? No. Madame X still hates Indriad. She makes it clear in the literal first 10 minutes of the game. In fact, she makes it clear she's seen the same events with Maria happen over and over and over. In fact, is there anyone we're aware of that Madame X hates more than Indriad? Madame X has to be a Theolia sibling, but her memory of her mother's death doesn't match up with what we saw of Anathea's death at all. The conclusion is that she witnessed a totally different death than we did (or became aware of a different one), so she must be from another universe. I feel like that's just an unavoidable conclusion. I mean, the very first Maria and Indriad we meet are from a totally different world, because it's post Storm-9 but the Chrysalis manor is still there and hasn't been turned into the Chrisola Hotel yet (Notice how those two places have such similar names and tilesets and locations.) But then again, it may also be a weird pocket dimension, so, not necessarily conclusive. Need more proof? Let's talk about The Escapee. Is there anything else we can know about them? Yes. We found their house. Remember the Kugearen shack? The one with the Rift Matter journal? Let's take a look at it again. One of the things that stands out the most here are the weird, defaced effigies of Anju and Nymiera, but not Vivian. I've seen it suggested that Nymiera was the owner of this house, which honestly can make sense, because otherwise who made those effigies of the Aevium Fighters? Check that out on the blackboards on the house - we have the Garufa logo, and we have the Archetype drawn up. We also have a map of future Aevium, meaning that without a doubt, this house belongs to a Time Traveller. Then there's a journal, left deliberately for someone to find, to give them important information - which is really just a way to get them to do what the journal owner wants. Now, who, exactly, do we know of that constantly monitors this time period to try to get The Interceptor and their allies to do things they want? Spacea, Tiempa, and... umm... I'm forgetting someone... oh yeah, Madame X. By the way, interesting note: The journal owner speculates about whether it's even worth un-rifting Pokemon. I wonder who'd think of something like that? The presence of the angrily stabbed up Aevium Fighter effigies is interesting, but there's something in this house that's much, much, much more mysterious and important. There's a clue in here that's so big that you can't even press A on it, because if it had to offer any kind of description, it would give too much away. Look in the bottom left. Oh, that's odd. We have three sets of... odd, metallic bodies with empty faces, how interesting. And then spread around near them, on the table and on the table next to it, tools that indicate someone working on or building something. Huh. Where else are there three robots built by a mysterious traveller who seems to know everything important? What you can see on the table there are Kieran, Clear, and Eden. This house belonged to The Escapee. There's no doubt about it to me. It was in this house that Kieran, Clear and Eden were built. They were built by someone who understands the Archetype, knows about Garufa Inc, knows about the future, and was subtly manipulating the person they clearly wanted to come into the house to do things in exactly the way they wanted. There's another argument you could make though. Even if this is The Escapee's house, how do we know that The Escapee is Madame X? Kieran and Clear have always been cagey about whether they're part of Team Xen, but they haven't been cagey about answering to Madame X. They're clear on that. Clear calls her "The Master". Is there some second person out there who built Kieran, Clear and Eden but is not their master, and basically bequeathed them to Madame X instead? I'm gonna invoke my right to say "Come on, man." Need more proof? Well you should, because I actually haven't ruled something out - Madame X being either Maria or Melia. So let me address the Maria part - Nastasia joined Team Xen to find Maria. It sounds like recently she may have gotten closer than ever to finding Maria. Why would she need to find Maria if Maria is Madame X? On the one hand, it would be a really easy way to explain why Nastasia has so much trust in Madame X specifically, and it's always been a popular theory with good reason. It's very hard to discount. But does Maria fit the role of The Escapee? Would Maria have a weird, irrational attachment to Talon, Xara, and Jean, and whoever Eden was? Is Maria known for being Smart As Fuck? For hating Indriad more than anyone else? Let's not forget that in the beginning, Madame X says "How long are you going to torment this girl?" or something like that - she definitely refers to Maria as "this girl", as someone separate from herself. But the Maria theory is strong, and I can't really pretend it's not - but I also can't pretend it's nearly as strong as the Erin theory. But Melia's a different story. Melia was meant to go to Grand Dream City - a parallel Melia could've known Xara, Jean, and Talon. Except... we know what an evil Melia looks like, and it doesn't look like Madame X. Madame X is more like an E2 instead of an M2. And Melia isn't stupid, but I think we can confidently rule out her becoming an engineering genius because she told us outright how bad she is at math. Besides, there's a much more important question: Did Melia even exist in the KCEverse? The Melia part of the post Melia's identity isn't hard to solve. Actually, we know that she has to be the previous host of the Zygarde Entity who had the Zygarde part ripped out to be used as a capture device for Maria's soul after Maria died so that the Archetype and the Archetype user wouldn't be completely lost. Simple really! Let's go over the facts. Melia is Maria. Melia is NOT Maria. Melia asserts BOTH of these facts. At the end of Chapter 15, Melia was saying "Somehow I think I've always known I was Maria", and then that something inside of her was telling her "I am not Maria", like, literally in the same cutscene, right next to each other, she says both of these things. Is she stupid? The answer instead has to be "Both of these things have to be true". So how can you be Maria without being Maria? I'll get to that. Melia is 75 years old. Unlike the other Theolias, Melia's body can't handle the Archetype. She's the only one who can't. In fact, Maria can handle it, and doesn't get Genesis Syndrome. Melia can't handle it, and does get Genesis Syndrome. What age would Erin, Alice and Allen show if you threw them in the Garufa machine? Well, the Calamity happened when Maria was like, what, 5? 8? Relative to the present day in Aevium, it was about... 43-ish years ago or something? No matter what math you do, Melia's actual age makes her much older than any of the Theolia siblings. Even if every single year that Erin, Alice and Allen were in the Gen 2 world counted on the Garufa machine, they'd only get to maybe 59 at best. Hold up a sec though! I've been talking like there's four Theolia siblings, but there's actually a fifth - Zetta. Loosely, anyway. He presents himself like he's Melia's Secret Big Brother, but the most interesting thing about him is - like I've pointed out elsewhere - the New Game+ chessboard calls him The Descendant of Zed. Now, that Solosis's ass isn't descended from anyone called Zed, he's descended from Dittos and other Reuniclus-line Pokemon. So the way in which he's the descendant of Zed musn't come from him, but Melia. It's Melia who's the descendant of Zed. Great. Now who's Zed? There are absolutely no clues, whatsoever, outside of the name. But "Zed" is just how British English pronounces the letter "Z". And "Zetta" is just another variation on the letter "Z", but for people who've played TWEWY, which by the way, Zumi has confirmed Jan has played that if the trainer quotes in GDC didn't tip you off. You know what else is associated with the letter Z? Zygarde. Since Zetta is just a fucked up Solosis, that Solosis cannot be descended from Zed. The one descended from Zed is Melia. That means Melia is descended from the original Zygarde host. In fact, I think Melia was in some way an entity that was meant to be the Zygarde host, and had the Zygarde pulled out, so they could be a Maria host. I can't actually go into all of my reasoning here. But let me ask you this: Is Indriad Yveltal? Here are the two answers. Yes. He's the Yveltal. He had an Yveltal shoved into him. He was made to host the Yveltal. Melanie even calls the Yveltal father. No. He's not the Yveltal. He's just the thing that hosts the Yveltal. The Yveltal was the thing that was shoved into him. Even though he's still connected to the Yveltal and it's how he spies, and the Yveltal can be addressed as father. Indriad is actually the thing that's inside Angie that made her a "Theolia" in the first place, the thing that starts going "Essence", and he was somehow ripped out of the Yveltal. Both of these things are true. In fact, it's the only mechanism in the game by which both of these things can be true. Is Melia Maria? Yes. She has Maria's memories. She remembers Anathea talking to them. She says "Somehow I've always known I was Maria". She is absolutely Maria. No. She says "I am not Maria". She's just 'hosting' a captive Maria spirit, whereas previously she'd have hosted a Zygarde instead, and "been" the Zygarde, now she's 'hosting' Maria, which is why she can't handle the Archetype. Both of these things are true. Outside of being a host, what other way is there in the game for both of these things to be true? Oh, and by the way. Yveltal being liberated from Indriad is how Madame X can call it "Father" without a sense of complete shame. I just figured that out then. As a result - it's not clear that Melia would even be Melia in the KCEverse at all! Think about this. Why is it that Madame X apparently has a soft spot for people from Grand Dream City... but none at all for Melia? The moment she sees Melia in Blacksteeple, she tries to kill her. I mean, I kind of think that moment is just stupid, but when you all try to escape, she sends you all flying, and you're all going to literally die if Nim doesn't save the day. And yet Madame X of all people has sentimental feelings about Talon? How does that make sense? It's easy. KCEverse doesn't have a Melia. KCEverse Erin, The Escapee, did not grow up with a Melia. How on earth she got to Grand Dream from 43 years in the past is another question (one with many answers by the way, you think she couldn't become a teacher at Axis High if necessary?), but there's no doubt that she has no real sentimental attachments to Melia. But she does to Maria, and we know that for a fact. It's because Melia is just a vehicle to get to Maria. She doesn't see Melia as her sister at all because she knows what Melia actually is in the first place! And then let me ask you another question - why does Madame X's armour make her weaker? It's kind of interesting how obviously it's themed after that Gardevoir Erin grew up with, but what kind of power could a human have without the armour? Well, given that she's a Theolia sibling, it obviously has to have something to do with The Archetype. I basically buy the theory that it prevents Madame X from overlapping. And if she can be overlapped, it's because she's from outside of this timeline/universe, and so her duplicate must still be out there. And as far as I'm concerned, that rules out Maria, leaving in only Melia and Erin. And like it just is Erin. Come on. TL;DR Madame X is Erin, Melia is a weird Zygarde host that got made to host Maria instead.5 points

For the last week I've been putting together a sprite pack that will add the Rejuvenation protags! It's a full pack, that includes sprites like, Tauros ride, Minecart, the Mewtwo quest, and the Labradora segment The sprites are set up to replace their corresponding protag (white boy replaces white boy, ect..), so please keep that in mind. Aevis (Replaces Vero) Aevia (replaces Alice) Alain (replaces Decibel) Axel (replaces Kuro) Ariana (replaces Lucia) Aero (replaces Ari) Ana (replaces Alice) Since there is an extra protag, Ana and Aevia both replace Alice! You'll have to pick one or the other if you're planning on installing more than one protag at a time (or you can rename the files yourself) So yeah, all 7 protags, 4 outfits each (excluding Ana, since her Xenogene outfit is the same as Aevia) making a whooping 27 sprites to choose from, go wild DOWNLOAD LINK 8/27/24 edit: 8/30/24 edit: -Added the Xenogene outfits! This gives another 6 outfits to choose from, bringing the sprite count from 21 to 27 (Ana's Xenogene outfit has not been added, since Aevia and her share the same sprite) -Tweaked the Installation instructions a bit, making it so the files can now be dropped in the patch folder in located your main Reborn folder, without overwriting the original protag sprites5 points

Pokemon Reborn has one-thousand, one-hundred, and seventy-nine battles. Now, while a few of these are only available through illegitimate means – such as Tham the Tench Engine and Mr. Meow Mix – and many more are random trainers with no distinguishing features whatsoever, knowing your enemy and knowing yourself can carry you to victory through all of them. About three weeks ago, I decided to start a mono-Bug run, and – inspired by watching Run and Bun videos – wanted to go for as few faints as possible with clear, clean lines. As such, I would need to understand the AI's behavior. However, while the basic information about the AI – it works based off scores for each action it can take – I couldn't find a full document detailing how these scores were calculated anywhere (for good reason), so I (someone with poor reason) decided to make it myself. Anyway, here's a 125 page document detailing the 12676 lines of code that make up the Battle_AI.rb file in the Pokemon Reborn code as of v19.5.26. It's broadly organized into 3 parts: Item AI, switching AI, and move AI, with the vast majority of the doc taken up by move score calculations. I hope it's understandable, please tell me if anything is not, and I damn hope this document helps at least one other person. (Feel free to port this to Google Docs or something, I'm just a "torture myself with Microsoft Office" type of girl). Pokemon Reborn AI.docx4 points

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hey everyone! This is the last blog post before the release of the game. So for this final blog post I want to talk about some last minute features that got added, well, only 1 really big one. The fast travel. I was unsure if I wanted to add one, and then I was unsure how I wanted to add it, but I think we got a decent way of doing it. As I mentioned previously, after this release, there will be some more patches, bug fixes, pokemon rebalancing, custom shiny sprites, maybe some new additions, from suggestions, to things we put in the back-burner because we didn't find them necessary to add right now. Game is definitely not going to be perfect, but I do want to try to listen to as much feedback as I can (there's a limit to how much Ill listen though lol). This does also mean that I will finally start searching for more people to join the team. Spriters (Trainer and Pokemon), Concept Artists and Coders mostly. But of course theres other roles to fill, it would help a lot. If any of you are interested tell me, though I would prefer you play the game first. Now without further ado, the title of the update! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ EPISODE 1: AULD LANG SYNE ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It's your 18th birthday, and you finally have the chance to search for your mother, who's been missing for as long as you can remember. Taking the League Challenge is nothing but an excuse to explore more locations and search far and wide. But you soon find out there are bigger problems starting to ravage the region. You begin to learn of the origin of the Canòrr region as it's known today and the history of its current King and Queen. As the hidden secrets become divulged, the dots to your missing mother connect more and more. A prophecy older than time, ancient inscriptions, a mysterious royal plot, divination, and magic new and old all collide in a clash that shakes everything you have ever known. Join up with new friends and rivals, as you find your way through unprecedented challenges and enemies. Do everything you can to protect the ones you love. Never back down.4 points

I am currently on a testing phase for a 19.5 version. we comb through the game and look for errors and evaluate difficulty of trainer battles. There is still a lot to do though, and since minor reborn updates come out sporadically there is always an uncertainty that it might crash something. 19.5 also has a small event for terapagos, but the currently released version its a Gift Pokemon that just sits around in the Ogerpon Cave (atop Ametrine Mountain), but I am unsure when it's obtainable in terms of postgame progression currently.4 points

Wow, now having finished playing through Case 20, clocking in at about 68 hours of play (about 6 of which were spent on a certain double battle in some certain woods) I can confidently say that this is my new favorite fangame ever. This game gave me so much joy that I feel like I should try to give something back by sharing my thoughts in what turned into a small novel xD There's so much to gush about I hardly know where to start! I'll try to start broad and get narrower. The structure/conceit: I love the case system. While I enjoy how games like Reborn and Rejuv have integrated gyms into the story, having a completely different way to mark progression made this game really stand out from the crowd. I love how it let all the battles and trainers feel more naturalistic--every opponent's team felt like it was something they would put together, and it meant that there could be stretches of battle-lite play where it felt appropriate. Progression felt more tied to story and character development than you proving yourself as a trainer. Also the case system in general was really fun! I'm a sucker for mysteries and puzzle games and despite how limited the medium of this kind of fangame is technically, the system you built captured the vibe of like a Nancy Drew or Sherlock Holmes game. The mysteries were also well constructed--there were only a few instances were I couldn't figure out what to do next or had to brute force the evidence presentation, and they were uncommon enough that they did not diminish my overall enjoyment. Story - General Vibes: The fucking atmosphere of this game...exquisite, effervescent, empyreal. Noir may be my favorite genre/subgenre, so I am already 100% the target audience here, but holy shit you guys nailed it. The moody jazz ost, the hardboiled internal monologue, the smaller scale urban setting... It's so delightfully contrasted with the simple Gen 3 graphics and the general silliness that is kinda built into Pokemon. In that vein, contrast is something this game does incredibly well. The hardboiled, gritty noir is often lightened by humor and some outright goofy sequences, but those add rather than detract from the tone. It keeps it from being a joyless grim slog and then when the game does decide to get real for a bit, the gut punch leaves you reeling (I still haven't recovered from the end of case 19 ;-; ). I was also impressed and pleased with how well Pokemon are actually integrated into the story and world. I feel like in a number of fangames, Pokemon are just sort of the gameplay vehicle and you could remove them without losing much of the story. But this games actually does the thing I always wanted fangames to do: give you a non-negotiable partner so the game can truly integrate them into the story and gameplay. Even as someone who never had particularly strong feelings about the Swinub line, Truffles instantly became my darling, and I love how she both gets to be a character and that her unique snow-pig attributes get to shine in a variety of ways. (Also, it should be stated that now I do have strong feelings about the Swinub line, thanks to this game!) Story - Characters I feel like most people tend to prefer OC/blank slate/self-insert playable characters in pokemon fangames, not because they're inherently a better fit, but because writing a good protagonist is hard. And if a player doesn't click with the protagonist they're playing, they'll probably bounce off the game. Sylvester Lafayette IV is the exception that proves the rule. He is so well drawn as a character and I was so invested in his story. It certainly doesn't help that he is also the kind of character that is absolute crack for my brain: gruff, repressed stoic, trying to shield his soft heart with cynicism and dissociation (and failing), collects strays and is mad about it, unable to walk away from perceived injustice despite it always leading to trouble... Absolute pathetic wet cat of a man, 10/10 no notes, S-tier blorbo material. And everyone else is so good too! I don't know if there are characters I don't feel strongly about. I love most of them, and the ones I don't like, I get to loathe with the strength of 1000 suns, which is just as fun. Even down to the throw-away npcs like the Number Guy. All their relationships are so well drawn and distinct. My favorites are probably (early-mid game spoilers): Gameplay: I already gushed about the case system above, so I'll talk more about the Pokemon aspect of it. I was playing on normal/medium and found that was mostly the perfect difficulty for me. I wanted to make a team of pokemon that seemed fitting for a PI and/or were obtained through story significant events, which means my team was not particularly optimized. The harder encounters sometimes took a few tries and creative approaches to overcome, but only one fight ever left me frustrated to the point I stopped having fun (again, a certain double battle in some certain woods). There was also a satisfying sense of gameplay/story harmony when (mid-game spoilers) Last Thoughts: I'm very grateful that I found this game when I did. Between being in my last semester of law school and the everything happening in the world right now, I've needed something to latch onto to keep my head above water. Especially since I'm in a video game law class right now, and most days I leave that class feeling like the video games industry is doing everything it can to crush the artistic spirit out of this medium. I don't know if it's common knowledge outside IP law spaces, but there's this overriding theory in both the legal system and industry that no one will make art if they can't make money off it. Coming back here, both to Ashen Frost and the pokemon fangame space in general is such a thorough refutation of that mindset. So thank you again for a bit of respite and fun in a difficult time, and I can't wait for the finale!4 points

Reuploaded Spork Updates: -new custom shiny Leafeon -new custom shiny Sewaddle line -Gina's Sableye has been changed to Haunter (Gym battle)/Mega Gengar (postgame rematch) -Kayla's Leafeon is now shiny Fixes: -the Temple of Time no longer has a battle replay for the battle with Drew at Celium Park that was part of an event that was removed last year, so Dialga should now be obtainable -the legendarysidequests notepad file's information on Dialga is now up to date -interacting with Kelani's battle replay at the Temple of Time no longer gives an option for the Sea Star tournament battle if you haven't gotten to that battle yet This is an early reupload to fix an issue where Dialga was unobtainable due to a removed battle still having been a requirement to obtain it. Shiny Leafeon is autumn-themed, and the shiny Sewaddle line resemble cherry blossoms! An autumn-themed shiny Sewaddle line was originally planned for last reupload, but then I saw that Reborn already did that, so the idea changed to cherry blossoms. I was still able to do an autumn shiny with Leafeon though! Steffi posted the similarity between regular and shiny canon Leafeon and suggested autumn for it! Kayla's Leafeon was made shiny because it matches the colors of her hair and outfit and because she's from Ecruteak City which has autumn-colored trees. Gina originally had Haunter/Gengar, but I swapped it out a few years ago because I thought it had the least connection to her tarot card nickname theme (its name was/is Tower, because they live in the Pokemon Tower in Kanto), but thinking on it now, they're a perfect fit for her as a character. Gina licks peoples' faces, something the Gastly line is also known to do. Gina's Badge is called the Mischief Badge, and the Gastly line are like the archetypal mischief-causing kind of ghosts. I also don't know why I thought the nickname connection was a stretch, but I think if it's a choice between what fits the character and what fits the nickname theme, I should prioritize what fits the character anyway, and the nickname theme can be adjusted if need be. Speaking of autumn, that's the current season, so happy autumn!4 points

Hi all, I figured I've made enough progress on this now to share the link to my Pokemon Reborn 100% Walkthrough! Just like the one I made for Pokemon Rejuvenation my aim with this document is to provide a complete route through the game including every single item including hidden ones, available Pokemon, some tips for battle strategies, shop and tutor details, and more. To summarize my approach: if you're the type of person that doesn't really like having tons of tabs open at once while you're trying to 100% complete this game, hopefully my guide may be useful for you. Oh, and, like, it looks decent on mobile if that's your thing?? The link to the guide is here: https://bigjra.github.io/reborn The link to a discord for discussion and collaboration is here: https://discord.gg/3r83avH4sv4 points

Concerning the Future of More Regional Forms Hello everybody, a bit of an anticlimactic way of introducing this post, but after almost a year of v13.5's release, I figured it's time to make an official update notice regarding the status of MRF. First off, let me explain what I've been doing over the last year: When v13.5 released, I wanted to complete a full run of the game first before beginning development on a proper v13.5 MRF update. As of the current date, I have not even completed this recent release yet on either route. Though, I did want to push out a couple of mods at first when after the game got updated, which is why I quickly updated my Battle Music Pack mod (which I am currently still working on an update for) and then pushed out 2 other mods (Battle Bond (with help from Karvanha) and Gen 9 Starters) so that I could get a feel for how working with the new codebase would be. With how quickly I was able to release those mods, I figured I could get MRF updated just as fast, but I wanted to have a big update initially for it and thus joined the Gen 9 Mod team to help develop a base for other modders build their mods off of. I wanted to help build that template and then update MRF onto it, but I didn't expect it to take longer than the beginning of 2024 to complete it. Around said early 2024, I started studying for the MCAT, but also contributed to the Gen 9 Mod when I could. As a result, it left no time to actually work on updating MRF, and wasn't until halfway through the year that we completed the Gen 9 Mod template, which was when I thought about updating MRF again. By this point, there were already 2 large-scale mods in development for Rejuvenation v13.5: Overseer Files and LAWDS. I was very impressed with their work overall, but a part of me realized something after seeing them: I had no clear direction for MRF at all. At first, this mod was made to build up on the Alternate Forms Mod made by Jeb, as well as bring in the Hisuian Forms and Battle Bond into Rejuv v13.0.5 during a time where the game nor Rejuv Modding Community had either. However, over time I just started adding things into this mod that I liked, not really focusing on the goals I had initially set for myself. v13.5 added Hisuian Forms, and v14 is planning on adding Gen 9, so there's not much else for me to add into MRF other than the Delta Forms from Insurgence and Epoch Forms from Soulstones. However, over the last year someone contacted me that they were planning on making a Soulstones Mod themselves, and I figured there's no point in making 2 Mods that have all these forms in them, so I didn't feel like I wanted to add them anymore myself either. As of the current, I am still doing my studies, and thus any time I'd put towards developing this mod any further would be astoundingly slow. So, where does that leave MRF? Well, given the contents of this post so far, or if you just wanted to see a quick bolded TL;DR version of this message, MRF has ceased all of its future development and will not have an updated release for any future versions of Rejuvenation. I deeply apologize for anyone that was a fan of MRF and was awaiting its v13.5 release, but unfortunately I am not satisfied with the direction that this mod took. I don't like the way it turned out, and there's other mods that accomplish my objective but simply do it... better. I've always said I'm not a good coder, and quite frankly I'm still not. That's why trying to pile on so many ambitious goals for myself made me realize that I can't feasibly do all of this by myself. All-in-all, it killed my motivation to update this mod for future versions. So, once more, I am very sorry for anyone awaiting MRF's continuation, but this is where it ends. Now onto bigger news... Despite MRF ceasing development, that doesn't mean I've stopped modding in general. Even though I no longer want to add in the Epoch Forms from Soulstones, they weren't the only forms I was interested in. I've been working together with Sapphiada on a project that we're hoping many will be excited to hear about. The contents of this new mod were, of course, a part of MRF, but now full focus has been put on it. We have recently gathered artists who have volunteered to create sprites for us that will surely bring these old forms into a new light, and bring interest back into a true classic of the Pokémon Fangame community. One might call it... an Insurgence? Well, we'd rather like to call it a Resurgence. (Credits to 6'Rat on Discord for this beautiful back sprite) Any questions regarding the development of this new mod will be answered by either Sapphiada or me on Discord. I deeply appreciate everyone's support and love towards MRF, and hopefully we'll be able to continue giving much joy to all fans of Rejuvenation and the Rebornverse games as a whole! We hope you all have a wonderful day!4 points

DISCLAIMER: This mod and its developers are NOT connected directly with the development of Pokémon Insurgence or Rejuvenation or either of their teams whatsoever. This is a fanmade project and is not related to the canon of either of these games. Do not message the Insurgence or Rejuvenation teams regarding any questions or concerns with this mod. Features: - Most Delta Forms and custom Mega Forms from Pokémon Insurgence! - Most custom Insurgence abilities, moves, and items! - Crests for some of the Delta Forms! - Mild rebalancing of some Delta species to make them fit Rejuvenation's balance better. - New quests and puzzles to obtain the Delta Forms scattered throughout the Aevium Region! - Returning characters from Insurgence's storyline integrated into Rejuvenation's plot! - Battle Bond Forms for Greninja, Delphox, and Chesnaught! - Partner Pikachu and Eevee obtainable in-game (along with Mega Forms for the both of them!) - Trainer adjustments to feature the custom forms from Insurgence! - New mega Evolution forms for most of the Aevian Forms, Delta Aggron, and Shadow Mewtwo! - The Frostbite status from PLA replacing the Frozen status, as well as new items, moves, and abilities surrounding the Frostbite mechanic! - A spreadsheet will be included listing out all of the new encounters, quests, puzzles, and item locations. Side Note: The Demo version does not have full implementation of all content yet. Lots of story still needs to still be rewritten and many assets still need to be made. For the most part, this is just meant to give people access to the Delta Forms that have been fully ported over into Rejuvenation. The Delta Starters are obtainable at the start of the game as a choice for your first starter. Go to the door to the back of the starter room and you will have access to them. Also, all the Battle Bond Gen 6 starters are available when you fully evolve them. At the final stage of their evolutionary lines, use an ability capsule on them to switch their ability to Battle Bond. Note for how Noctem, Shadow Sky, and Shadow Dance work: Due to Darkness not being a vanilla weather effect, we had to make a suitable one for Noctem and Shadow Dance. We were too lazy to have to make a new weather, however, and simply decided to use an existing one in Rejuvenation that is mostly unused: Shadow Sky. Currently, Shadow Sky is a weather effect that simply boosts Shadow Pokemon and damages everything else, and it can only be summoned with the Storm-9 ability. So, I decided to use Shadow Sky as the weather to be summoned by Noctem and Shadow Prayer (a new move that's replacing New Moon) instead, but I edited it to be in line a bit more with how Insurgence's Darkness works. Shadow Sky: Increases the power of Shadow, Ghost, and Dark-type moves by 35%. Decreases the power of Fairy-type moves by 25%. Damages all non-Shadow, Ghost, and Dark-type Pokemon by 1/16 of their HP every turn. Lunar Cannon becomes instantly charged under this weather. Pokemon with the Shadow Dance ability increases their Speed by 50%. Additionally, Shadow Dance's ability activates under a Dark Crystal Cavern. Shadow Sky will turn a Crystal Cavern into a Dark Crystal Cavern. Terminates the Rainbow field effect. Synthesis and Morning Sun all have decreased healing under this weather. Moonlight has increased healing under this weather. Solar Beam and Growth fail under this weather. Additionally, Lunar Cannon fails when it's Sunny. Hone Claws' boosts are doubled. Flash's accuracy drop is doubled, Illuminate's Evasion is increased. Geomancy's boosts are halved. Fairy Aura does not boost any attacks. Dark Aura boosts are increased. Phantom Force takes only 1 turn. Reflect and Light Screen have their effects boosted. Nightmare and Bad Dreams have their damage boosted. Download Link: Mirror 1 (MEGA) Mirror 2 (Google Drive) Installation: This mod uses its own customized version of Rejuvenation. You do not need to download Rejuvenation nor merge anything with vanilla Rejuvenation in order to play this mod. Simply download the .zip file from either one of the mirrors above, extract it anywhere you'd like, and run the updater.exe and then you can start the Game.exe. The mod uses a separate save folder from vanilla Rejuvenation, so if you want to port over an existing save you will need to copy your save data from where vanilla Rejuvenation's saves are stored and place it in Resurgence's save location. Updating: This mod comes with its own custom updater that will receive patches through our Github. We will announce whenever a patch is released for players to run their updaters. Guide for Resurgence Content: Link to Guide Things to do: Finish adding documentation for all of the changes made both to some vanilla Pokémon Abilities and Delta Form Abilities, as well as moveset and TM compatibility changes. Finish the Resurgence Discord for people to join and discuss Resurgence's development. Finish up the rest of the back sprites for Insurgence's Custom Forms and incorporate the rest of the forms into Rejuvenation. Make an NPC that allows you to change Delta Muk's form whenever the player wants. Balancing tweaks (if necessary) Animations for moves I'm not the best at pixel art and I'm even worse at animating. This might not come for a while, and I don't like acting like I'm begging for free help here but if there's anyone who can help me with animating moves I'd really appreciate it. Adding more Delta Forms into the mod if possible We're still working on getting permission from other fangame authors, so we'll have to see what we'll be able to add. FAQ: Is this canon to Insurgence or Rejuvenation? As stated earlier, this project is in no way connected to Insurgence or Rejuvenation's development. This is merely a passion project for some people who are huge fans of both games and wanted to see Insurgence incorporated into Rejuvenation. Please do not bother the Insurgence and Rejuvenation staff and developers if you have any questions or concerns with this mod. Contact either AsN or Sapphiada regarding those questions instead. Why are there missing Delta/Mega/Other Custom Forms? Unfortunately, we do not have the permission to include all of the Delta species into this mod. This is due to most of the original artists behind these forms having been inactive for many, many years now and we have no means to contact them. As a result, we cannot include every Delta form from Insurgence into this mod, but we'll do my best to properly incorporate the forms we do have permission to use into Rejuvenation. Other than that, we currently do not have all of the back sprites finished for the forms yet and I'd rather not include forms that still use a Gen 4 style back sprite into a Gen 5 style game with animations to accommodate that. The only exception to this is Delta Graveler since its final evolution does have a proper back sprite along with a Crest, so we'd like for people to play with it if they'd like. Can I use this on my current save? Do I need to restart the game? As stated earlier, you will need to copy your save data over from where vanilla Rejuvenation saves are stored and place them in the save location for Resurgence's save data. For the current Demo, you do not need to start a new save file, but it is recommended you do so so that you don't miss any features at the beginning of the game. Since the Paldean Forms and Evolutions are included in this mod, will you be adding the rest of Gen 9 as well? How long will that take? We do not plan on adding the rest of Gen 9 into this mod. Even though this mod does use the Gen 9 Mod as a baseline for development, incorporating all of Gen 9 into the current state of the game would be far too much. Rejuvenation v14 will be including Gen 9 into the game, so I'd rather wait for Rejuv's Devs to properly incorporate Gen 9 rather than our shabby attempt at it. Are you planning on adding terastallization? Hell no lmao. Are you planning to make this for Reborn as well? At some point we plan to, but we were definitely ambitious going into this project as just a 2 Developer team. Plus, both of us are very busy with other responsibilities, so we'll have to see when we can get around to that. This Pokémon seems too broken/overpowered, can you adjust it? We'll try to! Just let us know what you prefer and we'll take a glance over it ourselves. We're always open to feedback, but we will mostly try to stay as close as we can to Insurgence's canon stats for the Delta Forms. Can I edit certain things about the mod myself? Of course! The Scripts files are included in the game files. If you know what you're doing and want to edit some things yourself, or fix something that we broke, then by all means! However, if you break something while you're modding on your own, please give a detailed description of what you did. Otherwise, we don't be able to help you much. How can I contact the Developers for questions? We'll try to check the forums as much as we can, but it's better to reach us in the Resurgence Mod Discussion Thread on the Reborn Discord if you need anything. Either reach out to AsN (@katowoozy) or Sapphiada (@sapphiada) for anything regarding this mod. If there are any other bugs that people run into, let us know and we'll fix it as soon as we're able to! Mod Compatibility: (Note: We have not had the chance to test every other Rejuvenation mod with Resurgence. If there is anything that is compatible or non-compatible, please reach out to AsN and he will update this list accordingly.) Compatible Most mods from the QoL Modpack A list of all of the incompatible mods will be listed in the Non-Compatible section. Haru's GBA Cheats Non-Compatible Any large-scale overhaul mods such as: LAWDS Overseer Files Rejuvenation Extreme Gen 9 Encounters Mod Anything non-modular. If it has to replace any of the actual game's files (Scripts, Data, etc.), it's mostly likely not compatible. List of QoL modpack mods that are not compatible: AEC - Mining Overhaul* Universal Accuracy x1.2 Battle_SpeedUp** ShowEnemyStatsOnInspect** *This is already incorporated into Resurgence's base game. **I've made these mods compatible but do not plan on releasing them publicly on this forum. Please visit the Reborn Discord and find them in the 'Resurgence Mod Discussion Thread' if you'd like the compatible versions. Credits: Will be included in a text document within the game's files.3 points

Pokemon Oblivion is a fangame that I have been working on, entirely solo, for about a year. It is loosely a Rebornian-style game, as it features field effects, but there are many new mechanical changes to many areas of Pokemon. There is a new "gimmick mechanic" in this game, similar to z-moves or dynamax, which is the Role system. More info about it in the video linked below. There is currently no released demo. I will be releasing video dev blogs on YouTube, the first of which is linked below. Join the Pokemon Oblivion discord server for updates: https://discord.gg/smC3yMS6re3 points

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Welcome one and all! I am pleased to announce I'll be opening up positions for beta testing the game before it's release. As you can see below, it's done. the Shinys aren't completed but that was never a focus, they will be done one day. The game goes up to the second gym, and then there's a bit of story afterwards. It's not super long, but I think that there's a decent amount of content to play through! If you're interested in beta testing, you can DM me here on Rebornevo, EeveeExpo or even on discord! I am also on the RebornEvo discord, I talk often in the #pokemon-fangames, #game-development or #anime chats. I don't know how many people I will want to play test, but for now, its a free for all and I'll accept any number. I'll start adding people to the beta testing server from next week onwards, but you're free to contact me beforehand! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now. I need to talk about what will happen after this releases, there will be of course a few bug fix patches, these bug fixes will contain the usual bug and typo corrections, but also Pokémon Rebalancing (I haven't finished doing that), Difficulty Tweaks and also one more side quest that I was too lazy to add. Afterwards it'll be just normal big updates etc. : )3 points

04-02-2025 Dev Blog Don't worry, there was no Rick Roll this year for April Fools. Instead we had a hostile takeover of power, and sheer chaos. Fun times! We've got a few things to tease for this post, some new items, and contest winners for an Aevian event that was on-going in the Discord! Starting with some silly story snippets. Make the right choice, you know what has to be done. You'll stumble upon this peculiar Umbreon a few times throughout the events of Overseer. What could it mean? I guess you'll just have to wait and see. She is in fact, still armed. The grudge between these two expands back far further than it would seem. Your options will determine what happens next. Make the right choice... or don't! New Crests! I feel these crests are deeply sought after by the community in general. Especially with some other evolutions receiving the same treatment, so, without further ado. Vaporeon Crest "Gains Fire-type STAB. Normal-type moves become Fire-type. Heals 1/16th of its HP each turn." Jolteon Crest "Gains Water-type STAB. Normal-type moves become Water-type. Attack scales with Special Attack." Flareon Crest "Gains Electric-type STAB. Normal-type moves become Electric-type. Speed boosted by 40%." These crests will be exclusive to the Pinnacle, and can be obtained through a lore-relevant sidequest! Event Winners / New Aevian Form In our public Discord server, we put out an announcement last week for a new community event! That event was filling in a sketch for one of our new Aevian Forms. Whoever had the closest color-palate to the original would win. Now, to be quite honest, no one was that close. There were a lot of submissions for some crazy color combos, and some other unique looking designs. The winners were based on who had the closest color to one of the genders/the closest shade of color. Do also keep in mind that this design has never been shown outside of the developer server. The winners for the Male form are: Minbo & Seren (Both had close aspects to the original, so we decided both would win) The winners for the Female form are: Ronin And finally, the Aevian forms Aevian Buizel / Floatzel Design & Art by Moonpaw Normal, Ghost/Normal Type Buizel: Aevian Buizel descend from Buizel who were born without a flotation sac. After being shunned and driven away, it uses wisps as a suitable replacement for its missing collar. Floatzel: It has collected enough wisps to mimic the flotation sacs that its Sinnohan brethren have. They are very proud of their collection, and will often preserve their wisps at all costs. Additionally, have some undocumented information, provided by the Research Division No further information can be provided at this time. And that's all for this post. We'll be back soon with more updates on development as we continue! Congratulations to the winners of the event, and please reach out to an Overseer for your reward Overseer Files Discord3 points

Reuploaded DDDL and Spork DDDL: -changed Crolea's Inkay to Blipbug (nickname Saucer) Spork: -changed two Pokemon on Crolea's team: Inkay/Malamar and Onix/(Mega) Steelix are now Minior (nickname Meteor) and Dottler/(Mega) Orbeetle (nickname Saucer) -changed Ivan's Slowking to Palafin (nickname Paladin) -changed the Poke Ball starter item gift with Nincada to a Dusk Stone, since that's how it evolves into Shedinja as of last year after it was reported that the canon evo method wasn't working -Steelixite is now located at Olidroll Underground -Bolaii Bar is now a soda parlor where you can buy Soda Pop -after finishing the Cleanup Collaboration ranger quest, the NPC behind the counter at the Soda Parlor will be in front of the building and give you a Soda Pop as thanks -following last reupload, I've finished expanding the choice menus for when you have more than four answer options Specifically, the following menus will now show all answer options at once: move tutors, Sea Star Society vendors at the Shopping and Food sections, choosing your home region at the Tourist Info Center, helping Portal Agent Terrence decide what to order at the Battle Factory restaurant, prize vendors at the Battle Frontier, and the character simulations at Planet Spork. I was going to do the Battle Factory rental lists too, but there are so many Pokemon that they don't all fit in one text command, even with extendtext. I'd been thinking about Crolea's team changes for a while. Earlier this year, I started questioning the connection between Steelix and space. Apparently they can burrow close to the planet's core, which I'm guessing was my thought process there because its nickname was Core, but that sounds more closely related to geology than space. Orbeetle seemed like a great candidate for a space-related mega, since it looks like a UFO! As for Minior, I thought Crolea would really like them, the Violet Core Minior goes well with Crolea's dress, and Crolea gets a Comet Shard birthday present. Malamar fit the team theme perfectly fine and it was a tough decision to switch it out, but Isabelle and Peach still have one! Plus its nickname was Alien, and there's still Celesteela on Crolea's team! Ivan's was a sudden realization that Palafin would work well with his team theme, and since having a King and an Emperor might be repetitive, I switched out Slowking since I think Empoleon's more serious nature fits Ivan better. 2024 felt like a weird year in terms of reupload times. I was going to say that sometimes there were larger gaps than usual between reuploads, but looking back at timestamps from older posts, it doesn't seem like it's all that different to past years. It still feels different to me for some reason though. Maybe I feel like I fumbled a bit towards the end of the year with the Serenity Seaside house stuff, which led to a few reuploads having a lot less updates than originally planned. And the past couple weeks have basically been one reupload split into three, since I needed to reupload early twice due to major bugs. I've still enjoyed working on Spork though, and I'm excited to continue making updates! Happy Holidays!3 points

Hello everyone! I apologize for the long hibernation, a lot of RL stuff (still a lot to do so less time), but I will slowly begin to work back on the mod. First of all, since other developers mentioned and suggested to wait while a Gen 9 Support is being worked on, AND the newest Update getting Patches almost every wekk, I will focus on the current version (19.17) This also lightens the work to transfer and rewrite all scripts for the new version since there will be scripts available (and probably more cleaned up than my homebrew scripts lol) I will concentrate on bug fixes and probably postgame content until then and meanwhile slowly accustom to the new codewriting of 19.5. Since i had a long pause, I will also need some time to get back to map editing and coding in general, so I expect it to take some time for the first update to come out.3 points

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello everyone, it has been a few months. Progress *is* still being made, so let's get the graph out of the way again: So the general Total % didn't move, but Eventing and Sidequests did, Mapping is missing 1 big map. Graphics wise, 90% might no longer be correct, since we need to redo the Cave and Forest Field BGs, but I already have someone on the case (Aboodie). ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I guess what I want to talk about this time is the games story. I don't think I ever really talked about it here, on the games thread the synopsis is this: The premise is still the same, but I'm gonna re-iterate it here in a less 'poetic' and 'mysterious' way, it was written that way in the thread because it was appealing. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The game starts on the Players 18th birthday, and you and your BFF both decide on your own to join the Pokémon League Challenge, it's a championship/competition around the region where everyone can participate as long as they register on time online. Participating in this competition gives you a few perks, prices in items on PokéMarts are cheaper, and there's certain locations around the region that you're allowed to visit without having otherwise, the authorization or warrant to go in them (Participating in the championship basically acts as a free-entry on locked areas), these locations can be certain routes, or abandoned buildings etc... The Players goal is simple, find out where their mom is, they were abandoned when they were a really young child and left with their father, who took care of them ever since. The only thing they have from their mom is a keepsake she left behind, a broken Ultra-Ball, their goal is to fix them, and interact with people around the region that know about their mom, to learn more about her and maybe eventually learn of her whereabouts. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The basic premise is exactly that, of course it gets complicated and doesn't focus purely around just finding out your mom, your rivals and friends will also have their own goals and you will be able to help them and they will help you. I wanted to give the player their own goal, well, at least the Player Character in-world, if you the player actually cares or likes it is a different story that I can't do much about, but hopefully the gameplay can at least make you interested in continuing then. There will be villains, and there will be danger. The start of the game directly mentions that some people escaped prison. There will be minor villains to beat once in a while (I'm a sucker for these), and also overarching narrative villains that will re-appear every so often (I'm a sucker for these). I think I need to say this: I KNOW where the majority of the characters end. I KNOW where the story goes at the end. NOT every character will get a character arc and change (some personalities are just too fun for me to change them) I also do have a list of plot-points that will happen, but I will admit that I don't have the proper order for all of them, there are still two or three characters I worry about, but hopefully as I write them I will have a proper idea of how best utilize them. Anyway I'm gonna introduce some friends and rivals now, because I don't remember if I ever did. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Rivals: Emily Willing (18 Years Old) She is the players BFF, she was born on the same exact date as the player, at the same hour, in the same hospital, 29th October 2001. She has an unusual attachment to the player, likes the same thing they do, does more or less the same thing they do, and enjoys spending time with them. She does have her own personal likes, dislikes and desires, but most of the time they are overshadowed by what she knows the player likes and dislikes more. She starts the story with no real goal other than tagging along, but that quickly changes... Synea Reid (23 Years Old) She is the last of the rivals the player meets, she is good at discovering information, but bad at using it. She can be impulsive and short-tempered, even hostile and agressive against those she deems criminals or bad people. Maybe a bit of a hero complex, who knows. Her goal is to become a detective, much like her father... Keren Galbraith (21 Years Old) He is a lot more calm, and keeps to himself most of the time, but eventually opens more to the player. He is Wills older brother, and is mostly just following him around the region and going where his brother wants to go. He is also the most competent in battle out of all the rivals. He doesn't know what he wants in life, but knows what he doesn't. Will Galbraith (10 Years Old) He is a respectful kid that only wants to do good. He always uses honorifics when talking to people (Mr. Miss. Ma'am etc...), Keren is the exception. He is partaking in the league challenge and looks at you and his brother with admiration and desire to be as strong as you two. Quickly takes a liking to you after seeing how quickly and effectively you defeated the first gym, something that he struggles with. He is the weakest of your rivals, but is also the one with the most growth potential. You'll partner up with this kid quite often. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Starters: I don't think I have talked about the starters for Divulgence either, so I'll also do that here: I don't think I need to explain why these. If you're reading this you're smart enough to figure it out yourself. While I'm at it I'll also tell you what Pokémon the rivals got as their starter: Emily is Skitty Synea is Shinx Keren is Deino Will is Sentret ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ How the game plays... First I want to drop this here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wusCE20z5MjU2fNi0rpcR1YS8UEVXPfF/view This link allows you to play the original 2020 tech demo, it is very bare-bones, you can't even play as a girl in this despite having the choice (you will literally be invisible and might even crash) But back then I needed to put something out, I needed to know if people would enjoy it at least a bit, people did. Give it a try if you haven't, but do remember the save will not be converted to the next update, as the game was remade from the ground up. I would love to see what you think of this tech demo compared to the next update. ANYWAY, about the next update. So, this is more of a warning, but there will be a lot, and I mean A LOT, of side events that you can skip. Just for the next update, I would say half the runtime is skippable content that you *can* miss if you don't do it. A lot of this content is hanging out with your rivals and friends, doing things with them, knowing more about them, battling them. I will of couse still have the main story play out and be forced to do, but I can't stress out enough how much content can be missed, and can be skipped, so please do explore. I will say this again when the update comes out, hopefully by the end of the year but based on how much of a bitch I am it will probably be January, kinda sucks because I actually wanted it to come out the 29th October originally to fit in with the players birth-date. I'm sorry. https://imgur.com/nwR9MW2 oh my god i cant figure out how to make gifs work here so fuck it, you can click the link im losing my mind ( got you boi ;') )3 points

10/08/2024 Dev Blog Today is a pretty big day for the mod, as we recently hit 1,000 members in the Discord server, a huge milestone for something that is just a mod for Rejuvenation, at least to me anyways. Because of this, we are hosting a bunch of community events, and revealing some new content for the mod. Community Events Starting off with the events, we are hosting 3 of them. The first being "The Pinnagame", a RNG based/raffle event, where members with cNPCs can submit their character into a raffle, and if selected, go at it in the Hunger Games, with the first three winners getting an Aevian form on their team! You can submit your cNPC into the raffle here: https://forms.gle/sgfDHYQy3h3b7oZaA The second event is a Trivia, where we will be doing a Kahoot quiz based on the mod, the story lore, and some other mod related questions. The top 3 highest scoring participants will win an Aevian form for their team, where the participant that comes in first place will also win a trainer effect for their team. The trivia will be taking place TONIGHT, at 7 PM EST, check the server events, or join the stage channel to participate. This will be taking place in the Discord. And finally, we will be updating the Aevian Form demo with 4 new forms, those forms being Aevian Noivern Aevian Flygon Aevian Vivillon and a community chosen form to be added to the pack. You can vote for the new form here: https://forms.gle/u82J8yM1Y7xWa4Wv5 Duskmire Bayou Duskmire Bayou is the final main location in the Pinnacle to be revealed. Located south to Silverlein Highlands, Duskmire is a overgrown toxic swamp, and is the least populated location in the Pinnacle, with the primary residence being Outcasts, who are either seeking an escape from the main Pinnacle locations, or those who are in tune with nature. The poison type Pokemon alone are a main deterrent for new residents, but on top of that, the land itself is suspended above the toxic waters by thick vines, and frequently shifts without warning, making it extremely difficult to construct homes, or any other kind of residence in this location. The waters are home to Aevian Dragalge, they're extremely territorial, and will typically attack anyone who attempts to disrupt their home, making it highly difficult to urbanize the Bayou. This however does give homes to a plethora of Poison type Pokemon. RemeSpin.mp4 New Forms These next forms are pretty special compared to the rest. As mentioned in the Aevian Demo update, Aevian Vivillon is now real, but we have two other forms to showcase along side it. The Void The Void is a desolate landscape, No important information is known about it. Any history on this location, or how it came to be is unknown, and there are no known Interceptors that reside there. You are not meant to be here. The Void is watched by a highly aggressive Pokemon. Please see the found footage below. StompyReveal.mp4 A single image has been captured of this creature, and is assumed to be a new variant of Silvally. No other information is available at this time. That's all for this post. Thank you all again for 1,000 members! Make sure to check out the Discord for the on-going events, and future updates. Overseer Files Discord3 points

Reuploaded DDDL and Spork DDDL: -changed dialogue for the "I'm Poppy" NPC in Party District + City Spork: -Happiny and Blissey's shinies now match Chansey's -changed Emily's dialogue in Serenity Seaside; there's still a bit of journey reflection but now she talks about the house -added Planet Spork simulation battle for Yukito + Hideko (Kieran and Carmine's grandparents), which is a double battle against both of them like in SV -changed dialogue for the "I'm Poppy" NPC in Party City -clarified in the Data Vault that Isabelle's nickname theme is the older Pokedex entries, since the entries were changed last reupload -updated both the in-game credits file to add more for Palletite and Steffi, and the end game credits shown in the game to be more up to date in general Spork Bug Fixes: -Oval Stones can now be used to be evolve Happiny (the option to use them like an evolution stone in the bag was missing) -In the Shiny Scouting area, the Paldea starters are now with the other region starters instead of with the misc. event Pokemon -In the Shiny Scouting area, Oshawott was both with the other starters and the custom shinies; it's now just with the other custom shinies so the same Pokemon isn't taking up two event tiles Something interesting about the Chansey line's canon shinies is that while Chansey's is green, Happiny and Blissey's shinies look almost the exact same as their regular colors. Thanks to Steffi for assistance with the Happiny and Blissey shinies (especially with shading), and for bringing up the difference between Chansey and the others to begin with! The "I'm Poppy" NPC was changed because there's an official character named Poppy as of SV, to avoid any confusion as to whether this NPC was supposed to be the same Poppy or referencing her. I'm Poppy is a mid-late 2010s meme from a viral video of a singer named Poppy saying "I'm Poppy" for 10 minutes. I'm not sure how remembered it is, since even when the video was more recent, most of the playthroughs I saw were confused when they interacted with that NPC. Earlier in the year, I mentioned that I might come back to the Serenity Seaside house sometime later. I've been brainstorming on and off since then about it, and I've settled on what I want to do with it! That's what this reupload was originally going to be, but on top of wondering whether I was ready or still needed time to plan it out more thoroughly, some of the updates included in this reupload came to mind. There were also a few weeks where I wasn't working on Spork and was playing other games or doing other activities in general. I got worried about the time between reuploads, and felt like I wouldn't be able to do the Serenity Seaside house update in a timely manner with how long it had already been since the last reupload. As for what I plan to add: I'd like to make it a place where you can hang out with all the characters in the game. You could have shorter conversations about the house and just general small talk, with a longer conversation and/or some kind of activity you could do with them like watching TV, eating, playing some kind of game like two truths and a lie, etc. I'd like to make it different for every character. While I have some of them planned out already, I will need to think for others, and maybe iron out some details of the overall process. I'm not sure how long it'll take, but I've been enjoying thinking about it and I hope it ends up being fun!3 points

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Oh, what is this? A second blog post in a row? On god? That's so sigma. Okay so, let me get this out of the way: I'm gonna explain this thing real quick, which is where the update currently is in development. - 21/08/2024- Old Content: It's everything from the starting town to the First Gym area. Sprites were also retouched a bit. I'll only talk about what I still have to do now New Content: Mapping: 1 Interior map for a Temple 1 Interior map for a Bike Shop Script Changes: Telling AI Field Effects exist Coding some last sections of Field Effects I haven't figured out yet Rework Infatuation Code the 3 new weathers - Fog - Dry Thunderstorm - Acid Rain Eventing: Story event after the second gym and inside the temple Random NPCs everywhere god i hate eventing so fucking much Graphics: I'm skipping shinys, they are self explanatory, I do need to mention these are only for the Pokémon *available* Trainer Sprites: Only 3 Trainer Sprites are left to do + their OWs So I'm telling you all this because I want to be a bit more open about the development. I'm not against anyone DMing me or Pinging me on Discord if you have questions btw. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Pokémon Forms Pokémon through-out the years has had many Pokémon have different forms, Burmy and its different cloaks, Lycanroc and its Day-Time Forms, Rotom and the Appliance Forms... So Divulgence will have more of these, I didn't want *ONLY* to do Regionals, those are cool and all, but theres untapped potential here. Heres a small list of things I want to make, doesn't mean I have made them yet, these are all just theoretical: More Oricorio Forms Another Wishiwashi Form [Deep Ocean] More Rotom Forms [Planned] More Wormadam Forms [Planned and already added to the game] North and South Gastrodon Forms More Vivillon Patterns [Planned and one already in the game] More Florges Line Colors More Furfrou haircuts More Aegislash Weapons [Planned] More Alcreamie Forms [Planned and will be added whenever we have sprites lol] More Squakawbilly Plumages More Tatsugiris, one per stat Dawn Lycanroc [Planned and added] There will also be something special for every Alcreamie Form, planned and already coded. Something special for Antique Form Sinistea and Masterpiece Sinistcha. Sawsbuck Forms will have something special about them.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello everyone! Its been like... a million years? Yeah I don't really do posts or anything. The game isn't dead, I am just very slow at working on things, specially on the elements of game development I despise doing *cough* eventing *cough*. In the past I also worked too much on the game to the point I didn't want to anymore, but now I got my Work-Dev-Life balance figured out, with Development not being the last of those three I focus on. I already posted some of the following things in the Divulgence Discord (link in the Divulgence Thread), but I'll post them here now too and then mention some new stuff. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ [1] What will not return from the first tech demo? EXP Bottles. There's a much better and much faster method of raising levels in the game now. EXP Formula is a bit tigher and helps with low level mons to catch up faster and mons that are too high level receive nothing [Credit: DemICE - Urmumium] Pokecenters will have a Machine that are a 1 TIME buy per PokéCenter, where you can instantly level up your Pokémon to an X level, X being different per PokéCenter and always 1-2 levels below the LVL Cap [Credit: Aboodie & DemICE] Potion Debuff mechanic. While I liked it in theory, in practice I never really needed it and all it did was stop Potion spammers, so whatever. Waste your money I guess. Easy Mode. Gone. Deleted. Yeeted. I don't want to or care to work on it. We are keeping these: Standard [Game Freak Style] - Divulgence [Reborn Style] - Over The Rainbow [Hard+] [2] Next Update, what does it contain? I would love to come here and tell you that in the past 3-4 years since the tech demo I made half the game. Sadly I didn't. I didn't want to work on the game for a big big while, so I didn't. I only really got back into it in the last 2 years or so, and even then I had some moments where I didn't touch it for a month or two. Update will go to after the 2nd Gym, there will be a story event right after, and the update ends there More regional variants! Including one from Soulstones 2, it was one of my favourites from them, and they allowed me to use it Better AI than the original tech demo More new moves, abilities and items as per usual Pokémon Specific Items, think Light Ball and Leek, more details below All areas of the tech demo were remade and re-evented, I'm not doing this again Player Characters actually have designs now, you probably saw them on the thread or on twitter Some story choices will *slightly* matter (they wont be game changers, but they might change order of events in the short term. They are usually cute changes) Custom shinys for all the Pokémon available to the player Pokémon Rebalances, this doesn't mean buffs, just changes, more details below ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Pokémon Exclusive Items Items right? We love them on us, hate them on enemies. What if I told you, I made... way too many... and I'll probably make a bunch more cause I find items really fun. The ideas to start making more Pokémon Exclusive Items started in November of 2023. Game Freak already made a few, Leek, Deep Sea Tooth/Scale, Thick Club, Light Orb... So most of my items will be on that scale, not all of course, because I do want to just have fun. Here are some of them; Plastic Bag [Increases Defense of Trubbish Line by x1.3] Honey Comb [Raises BST of Bee Pokémon by x1.2] [Combee - Vespiquen - Ribombee - Beedrill] Growth Vial [Boosts BST of Seed Pokémon by x1.5] [Seedot - Sunkern - Ferroseed - Pineco - Bulbasaur] Wizards Wand [Held Item related moves have +1 priority; Covet - Knowk Off - Trick - Magic Room] [Mismagius - Hattrem Line - Delphox] Possessed Shovel [Starts Sandstorm when hit by a Contact Move] [Sandygast Line] Gold Coin [Pay Day deals x2 damage. Opponents moves cost more PP] [Meowth Line - Gholdhengo Line] Pendulum [Hypnosis never misses and goes through Protect, Substitute, Safeguard, Mist (not Misty Terrain)] [Hypno Line] Most of these are fairly simple, but then you have an item like the Moon Dial shown in the picture above, that does like 5 different things and basically transforms the mon its for into a whole ass new thing. I am worried I put it way way way too early. Of course, these are only some, there's like.... 50? I have a whole ass list. I don't have ONLY Pokémon Exclusive Items, I also have more general use Items like: Superiority Vest [+3 Atk/+3 Sp Atk when hit by a 4x Super effective move; Consumable] Reckless Vest [Moves deal no Recoil, can't be healed] Mummy-In-A-Bottle [When hit by a contact move, Enemy gains Mummy ability; Consumable] Ubercharged Cookie [Power Herb, but isn't a consumable] I'm not gonna post them all here, I still want some sense of surprise. But I can show you the names! I have a sort of Tier List, that I use to know more or less when to distribute items, with any rule there's exceptions of course and sometimes I'll put these earlier than they would normally. Here! I also have one of these for TMs, and another for Tutor moves, same deal for them, for me to gauge when to place them/give them.3 points

Hello guys ! After some times after designing some teams, I finally wanted to create a new aevian form for a Pokémon I love since I began to play at Pokémon 20 years ago : Starmie. The goal of my fanwork is trying to submit it to the Rejuv Team even if the chance to succeed are low. Let's start ! Firstly, for getting this you would require a Staryu (there is no Aevian-Staryu). It would require to have in its moveset Light Screen and a level up in the Darchlight Caves. Then, you would get an Aevian Starmie ! As you could suppose, the thematic of this form is based on the light & reflection. To represent this thematic, A-Starmie will get a new typing : Fairy / Steel. I choose the Steel Type to get a more significant link to the reflection of the light and dark attacks. I doubted a moment before remembering that A-Bronzong has the Steel Type based of this thematic too. Pokedex entry : A long time ago, these Pokémon took refuge and were separated from the stars. They mastered the power of the light to keep communicating with the night sky. The story behind this aevian form is linked to their migration because of the Storm-9. To survive the cataclysm, a group of Staryu took refuge in dark caverns. In this new environment, the Staryu were unable to use their Water affinity to protect themselves and were separated from the light of the stars. In the different Pokedex entries we could get from all the official games, Starmie and Staryu are said to use their heart and their light to communicate with the night sky. So I imagined they used the power of their heart to concentrate the minerals in their bodies. Then they got the ability to use their entire bodies to control the light to attack and protect themselves. EDIT : I'm back with some update for this design ! I'm not a drawer, but with some AI stuff I managed to give body to my concept ^^ Let's see if you like it ! Not my favorite, it would be a Rock / Fairy Type. The second one is bulkier, which is not what I wanted to do :') I think the 3rd one is better. Its body seems to have crystallized. The yellow part of the body is not gray as I wanted to. This concept fits more with the aevian form I was refering to ^-^ Base Stats : HP : 60 => 60 Atk : 75 => 55 Def : 85 => 90 Sp.Atk : 100 => 105 Sp.Def : 85 => 90 Speed : 115 => 125 Total BS : 520 => 525 After designing the story and the typing of A-Starmie, I had to adapt its stats to its new style. By using their magic powers to transform their bodies, they gained some bulk to the detriment of its Attack Stat. Their transformation made their bodies lighter (lol) and denser, which means they lost weight too. By using constanly their powers, they increased their power and reaction speed. However I tried to prevent my form from being broken. That's why I didn't put more points in Sp.Atk. Other data of the Pokémon : Height : 1.1m Weight : 50kg (from 80kg) Note : I'm very bad for drawing, so if you want to try to give life to my aevian form, I would be glad to see it ^-^ Here I'll present its new abilities and moveset (Level Up, TM&HM, Move Tutors...). Abilities : Forewarn : By mastering the light, they managed to keep communicating with the night sky with other means. They are able to predict the path of the light to interprete the messages of the night sky and they respond by altering the path of light. Bright Body (Unique Ability) : Few aevian Pokémons have a unique ability, so I wanted to create one too ^^. I don't have to explain why I gave this ability to A-Starmie, so I'll explain how it works. All the light based attacks are enhanced by 50% and the ability reduces by 2 (x0.5) all light attacks taken. Magic Bounce (HA) : By using the light, A-Starmie is now able to deflect non-offensive moves such as Spikes or Toxik. List of "Light" moves : Dazzling Gleam, Flash Cannon, Aurora Beam, Starlight Beam, Ice Beam, Solar Beam, Charge Beam, Solar Blade, Power Gem, Steel Beam, Signal Beam. Level Up moves : Lvl Move Type Cat. Pwr. Acc. PP 1 Tackle Normal Physical 40 100% 35 1 Dazzling Gleam (Evolution) Fairy Special 80 100% 10 1 Flash Cannon Steel Special 80 100% 10 7 Rapid Spin Normal Physical 50 100% 40 10 Recover Normal Status — —% 10 13 Psywave Psychic Special — 100% 15 16 Swift Normal Special 60 —% 20 18 Metal Sound Steel Status — 85% 40 22 Camouflage Normal Status — —% 20 24 Mirror Shot Steel Physical — 100% 5 24 Psybeam Psychic Special 65 100% 20 28 Aurora Beam Ice Special 65 100% 10 31 Moonlight Fairy Status — —% 5 35 Reflect Type Normal Status — —% 15 37 Power Gem Rock Special 80 100% 20 40 Reflect Psychic Status — 100% 20 42 Psychic Psychic Special 90 100% 10 44 Moonblast Fairy Special 90 100% 15 46 Light Screen Psychic Status — —% 30 49 Cosmic Power Psychic Status — —% 20 63 Starlight Beam Fairy Special 100 95% 5 As you can see, there is no Water Type moves now for A-Starmie. So, if you want to get a Starmie with water moves, you would need to learn these moves to a Staryu before. Signature Move : Starlight Beam BP : 100 Acc : 95% PP : 5 The ultimate "Light" move for a regular Pokémon. When the target is hit by this move, all its "light" moves are disabled for 2-4 turns.

I would be so glad if this version of Aevian-Starmie could appear in Rejuvenation ahah ^-^ But if you think some moves are maybe too broken or some over mechanics, you can comment to improve this little project and I'll take into consideration your opinions ;) And finally, why not play a little game ? Create a set of this A-Starmie you would like to play in the comments below. I'll start with this one ! A-Starmie @ Life Orb / Wise Glasses Ability: Bright Body EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Starlight Beam - Ice Beam - Thunderbolt - Flip Turn That's how I imagined my Starmie in battle ! ^-^ Edit : Finally, I'll add other sets over the time :) A-Starmie @ Leftovers / Air Ballon Ability: Magic Bounce EVs: 252 HP / 186 Def / 72 Spe Timid Nature - Moonblast - Calm Mind - Recover - Magnet Rise / Rapid Spin A cool defensive Set Up. It prevents the party from status moves while being able to remove entry hazards and setting up Calm Minds to clean the game with Moonblast.3 points

Welcome to my art thread!! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I usually post my reborn fanart in the mega fanart thread but finally decided to make my own. Mainly because I'm building this huge alternate universe in my head based on my headcanon for the protagonists. They're practically OCs at this point haha. I want to make comics based on my headcanons, ships, and personal redesigns of the characters. I hope you enjoy your stay here! If you like what I have, consider dropping a comment or like, I always appreciate seeing those All Art Posts: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- HERE ARE MY INTERPRETATIONS OF THE PROTAGONISTS! I wanted to do a small redesign of all their outfits to better define their silhouette and styles. I tried to keep the characters similar to their original sprite art while putting my own twist on it. I think the characters with the biggest changes are Lucia and Ari. I love those two, but there's just something missing in their original design. I'll make proper full-body refs of them all someday. Here's some more info about who they are! I wrote out unique backstories and personalities for each of them that I can't wait to flesh out in more art pieces. I love them all, but my favorites are Alice, Kuro, and Decibel. Those three live rent-free in my head. They're one big group of friends! As such, you can imagine they have some pretty interesting dynamics going on in the group. My favorite pair in this group are probably Kuro and Decibel. They argue a lot because their ideologies often conflict with each other.3 points

I am currently working on Conditioner's sister mod, Dollhouse- -where I will be tackling the Overworld sprites!! If you'd like to check my progress, or offer assistance, feel free to jump into the Thread on the Discord, in #reborn-mods _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Remember back during Ep19's Development reading the quip about shampooing the character's hair? I stole the joke, and now it's mine. In exchange I give you fixed backsprites for all the characters, as well as several touched up Frontsprites. Essentially all of them. This is (Essentially) a complete graphical overhaul for the Characters of Reborn, excluding their Overworld Sprites (also excluding Gardevoir because she was too tall and looked awkward.) Finished: -Animate the Player Character Backsprites (v2) -Finish all of the backsprites as single images (v3) -Tweak all VS Transitions (v4) -Tweak all Named Character Frontsprites (v4) -Tweak Non-Named Character Frontsprites (v5) -Literally two changes!!!! but it also "works for the new version" (v6) Download is unavailable unless you're logged into the forum :) NEW Download!!! (6.0) - 4/27/24+ | V19.5+ \/ Conditioner v6.zip <---- Most Recent Version /\ | Instructions in Zip are incorrect, updated Instructions are below: Rather than overwriting the Base Game files, open the 'Patch' folder in Reborn's folder- make a new folder inside named 'Graphics', then throw the 'Characters', 'Pictures', and 'Transitions' folders into 'Patch>Graphics' folder.

This a small script which repurposes an old essentials function which let you take pixel perfect screenshots. I modified it to change the keybind tthe 'P' key when ingame. The screenshots are stored in the game's root directory in the Screenshots folder. To use, put this file into patch/Mods (create the folder if it doesn't already exist and run the game. System_ScreenshotFix.rb Report any bugs (there really shouldn't be any) here on ping me @paradoxvault in the #reborn-mods channel in the server.2 points

Title says it all, this is everything I could write down from essentially the start of time up until the game itself begins. I have completed 13.5 Paragon Route and Renegade Route. If you find yourself taking the time to read this and happen find something is wrong, please let me know! Needless to say, BIG BIG HUGE SPOILERS, and also some speculation. 1. The Old Earth: 2. The Aftermath of the "Garufa": 3. The Era of Kings and Queens: 4. The Miera Era: 5. Pre-Calamity Aevium: 5. Marble Mansion Time-Warp 6. Post-Calamity 7. Leading up to the Present: ............................................................................................................................................... What about the house??? The only thing I really can't piece together is the setting that everything actually happens in. It makes sense for the majority of the Indriad-Maria story to happen in the Marble Mansion, which is what I was rolling with for this post. It is this mansion that we physically see Anathea with Indriad and the four children, as well as Anathea and Indriad with only Maria, and Indriad and Marianette. The problem is: what is the house we see in the prologue? Where does this fit? In the prologue, we see Indriad actually sacrifice Anathea, a diverging story from her being killed by the cops and Gardevoir. We also know the house exists and is not simply some kind of dream because we can find the house in the desert. The house can't be strictly a replacement for the marble mansion, because the mansion itself still exists when Nymiera and gang try to beat Indriad. This is speculative, but in the prologue at the house, Indriad calls Maria "Marian--", implying that this whole scenario is a rouse. I think that this house was used to break down Maria's psyche over and over again before Indriad sacrifices her for the calamity. In this case, the person who seems to be Anathea would probably just be a dressed up maid. This would explain why Madame X asks someone "how many times are you going to make this girl suffer?" assuming that someone is Indriad. There is also the issue of Crescent bringing us to the house when she saves the interceptor. Later in the story, Crescent reveals that the house was in Seafore Edge and that she and the former friend would often go there to look at the coast. Thanks for reading!2 points

Reuploaded Spork Updates: -Added Dracozolt, Arctozolt, Dracovish, and Arctovish -Changed Oricorio's abilities to Adaptability, Synchronize, and Serene Grace since I wasn't successful in scripting Dancer -the stats/demographics section of the Data Vault now includes character name origins (ex: the type puns in Gym Leader and Elite Four names). For characters that don't have one, it means their name doesn't have a specific connection to their role in the game or their teams Bug Fixes: -Sushi's Data Vault files are no longer invisible -Fixed typo in Quick Guard's move description where it said "If" may fail if used in succession instead of It I've said in the past that I didn't want to add the Gen 8 fossils because I feel bad for them being parts of different Pokemon stitched together and suffering. What made me change my mind about adding them is that I can just change the rules for Spork from canon, which isn't different to what I've already done in the past. The fossil Pokemon were never fossils in Spork because they never went extinct due to death not existing. Maybe the Gen 8 fossils in Spork aren't parts of different Pokemon, but a related group of Pokemon that have similar body part combinations. I received a PM a few years ago about an offer to include fanmade versions of the Gen 8 fossils where they all have their original bodies. It was something I strongly considered, but held off on making a decision just in case we did ever get the original Pokemon in canon. This message wasn't sent by the person offering, it was sent by someone who was asked by them to ask me about it, so I don't know who they are or whether they're still following the game, but to that person if you ever see this: Thank you for the offer! Even though I did end up including the Gen 8 fossils, I didn't forget about your offer and have still thought about it over the years. Someone reported a couple years ago that the Dancer ability wasn't working, and when checking, I learned that while I gave the ability to Oricorio, I never actually scripted it in. For some reason, I kept forgetting to get back to this. I wasn't successful in adding Dancer from a script I saw in a Pokecommunity thread (no error messages, the ability just wasn't activating) so I gave Oricorio different abilities instead. I got four suggestions for abilities when I asked elsewhere and picked three of them. For the Serenity Seaside house project, I decided to postpone it for now. For the last reupload post where I mentioned you could hang out and do other activities with characters, some of the ones I have in mind would take you to other places. I considered that if I had an idea that would take place in one of the new areas in upcoming map revamps, it would be better to hold off until then. I spent a lot of time brainstorming and coming up with events before deciding to save this until later, which is why this is a smaller reupload even though it's been two months since the last one. Sorry that there's been scheduling issues for two reuploads in a row because of this The positive news is that since I've already done a lot of planning, that's less that needs to be done in the future when it's time to add it!2 points

07/28/2024 Dev Blog We're back with another post. This last month has primarily been us focusing on organization, implementation of any missing cNPC assets, and clearing up the backlog of old things that needed to be done, as well as chipping away at the regions layout. Over all, this has been going alright, working a full time job is definitely slowing this down however, and unfortunately, it's going to be even slower for the month of August, as I have been pushed into taking a vacation for 2 weeks, so the new post after this probably wont have too much going for it. Now, with all the life crap aside, I'll start off with our latest announcement in the Discord server. cNPC Roll Call A few days ago, I made a fairly lengthy announcement in the public server, going over cNPC that are missing things from their original submission, such as dialogue, lore, sprites, etc. There was probably around 50+ people that I ended up pinging, so if you haven't checked the announcements yet, or the team list, I'd recommend doing so as soon as possible. As of right now, there is no deadline for finishing your cNPCs, this will most likely change when I return from vacation. I also do not plan to be removing any cNPCs, however, if your submission is missing sprites, dialogue, and lore, and you fail to contact me, or make notice of it in the server, I will then be opening up your slot to someone else. The team list can be found here Map Reveal I have two maps to show off on this post, the first one has already been revealed in the public server, and the second one is entirely new. First off, let me introduce the rest of you to the second settlement located in the region, Aspenelle Town Located North of the Pinnacle, Aspenelle Town rests on the boarder of the Highlands, and the Outskirts, and is home to a majority of the Paragon Interceptors. The town is built upon the community working together, and you will often find several community events taking place, fresh crops being distributed amongst the locals, and an over all welcoming environment, that is, if you aren't there to cause issues... Here, you will be able to meet a small group of Interceptors who call themselves the "Snack Squad". These group of unique Interceptors will help you settle into the new environment, give you some lore about the Pinnacle, and maybe even team up with you from time to time, who knows! Aspenelle Canyon Located west of Aspenelle Town, the canyon acts as the boarder between the Highlands, and Aspenelle. The environment is built up of large cliffs and mountains surrounding the environment, and several natural lakes and waterfalls throughout the area. Oh, and it's home to several Outcasts, and a few Exiles too... Thankfully, there's someone living there to keep the chaos at a minimum. (yeah I know there's a tile error with the tent, I already fixed it) Aevian Form As usual, I am closing off this post with a new Aevian form. This month, we are revealing another one designed by Chrysanthemum. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ This concludes the post for this month. As I mentioned at the start of the post, I will be on vacation for a good bit of August, so the next post won't be too big. But who knows, maybe I'll give a decent spoiler next time... We shall see. And remember, to make changes to your cNPC, or include anything that is missing, or to just hang out and do whatever, make sure you join our Discord server. https://discord.gg/OverseerFiles2 points
