Pokemon Ovir and Plesio

[MarineAngemon]

STORY:
You wake up in the beautiful region of Kochaki, as the new kid in town. You start in Pinetree Town, only 12 year old, and ready for an adventure. lots of places to go to also. You go to Professor Maple's house and find out that he is having a problem. he wants you to get the package from Jack, one of the Prof's old friends who lives in Vultidal town, to him. he will let you have 1 pokemon to protect you. when you do, he will then give you the pokemon, 5 pokeballs and $2000. his Grandaughter, Jennifer, chooses her pokemon and heads off into Vultidal woods, where she wants to battle you. into Vultidal woods, if you win or lose, then you go back to the prof. lab with Jennifer and you both claim your pokedex. now your adventure begins....

Made With: ??? (possibly Sphere) any suggestions?

Team Plasma

these guys want every single pokemon in the world, even the rare dinosaur ones. they are looking for the 2 most legendary pokemon (not like Groudon and Kyogre btw) is the legendary Sky and Giant pokemon. they are also looking for the 3 legendary bird pokemon, which are locked away in 3 temples, and the 2 dinosaur pokemon which have been dormant for many years.

Features:
150 new pokemon, mostly dinosaurs
8 gyms
loads of events
10 legendaries. (3 only caught through events)
5 of those legendaries are dinosaurs.

other features:
possibly a different entering door clip, similar to raptor, but with the character going through it
poison gas area (need gas mask or oxygen tank)
need certain Keycards for different facilities (the 3 main cities)
different music for different events, like the drought in R/S (music may last through pokemon battle as well, wont know how to do that)

Note: The dinosaur pokemon are active in the game, not fossilized, including Aerodactyl, Cranidos, Rampardos, Shieldon, and Bastiodon. other pokemon which are fossilized will not appear in the game.

so what do ya think?

[Ionic]

Sounds good, are the dinosaur pokemon just gonna be a type or look like dinosaurs ?

[MarineAngemon]

definately gonna be a different type for a different dinosaur. Like Firanno and Icema, Firanno is a fire type and Icema is a (well, you guessed it) Ice type. as for other dinosaurs, some can evolve into bigger ones. i think about 80 of the pokemon will be dinosaur types.

[Ionic]

And some dinosaur eggs that hatch into Dinosaur type pokemon ?
Will any of the legends be undersea ?

[MarineAngemon]

yeah you could, leave them in the day care centre and within a day or so, an egg is formed. although it takes 2 days to hatch.

Icema is an undersea legendary, note the name: ice(ma) -> Elas(mo)saurus.
i think a grass type will be hard to think up of.

Canoptor? (Canopy + Raptor)

[MarineAngemon]

you could be onto something, i was thinking Canoptor -> Canaptor -> Locileaf. (pronounced Lo-se-leaf)

got another one which may be good as a 3 way evo but wont be a starter. got even a pre-evo for Aerodactyl, which is Dactin.

got 61 names, now need another 89.

[Glitchfinder]

Well, first things I thought when I saw this thread's title were something to the effect of: "Wait a minute. Ovir and Plesio? Odd names for Pokemon. They sound more like the names of ancient creatures. This must be one of those 'fossil versions'." I was right. (Oh, and fossil version is something I call Pokemon games that take place at any point in the history of the Pokemon world, or with what would be, in most games, fossilized Pokemon. It also applies to fanfics, etc.) Also, the origins for the names are what, Oviraptor and Plesiosaur? I know that Oviraptors were a type of dinosaur, but the sea creature called a Plesiosaur was technically an entirely different kind of reptile. Also, I think this is a unique, if rather large, game idea. If you have development experiance, you can probably pull at least part of this off, but if this is your first time, you might want to take a simpler project first.

True, this is my first time, and yes, i may want to do a simpler project, but this IS Plot and Story idea space. not trying to argue with you in any way.

i know it will be very hard to pull off, i agree. the dinosaur pokemon are not fossilized, they are active. if they were fossilized, i would only have about 40 new active pokemon in the game.

[DaSpirit]

Sounds good so far. Maple has been used a lot, you might wanna change it. I guess you really like dinosaurs ^_^

[MarineAngemon]

ok i will change the professor's name. Professor Yew will be his name.

yeah i do. ^_^ i dont think this idea has been tried before, and i might be the first to try it.

would love to see that this project gets somewhere.

[Ionic]

Its going to be like a digimom/Pokemon i think.

Which will be awesome :)

[MarineAngemon]

not quite Digimon and Pokemon mixed, it wouldnt seem right.

i may make this project in Sphere. what do you guys think?

[Ionic]

Sphere is okay....
If your a great scripter go for it.

RPG MAKER is easier and easier to navigate.

[Prof. Briar]

Hmm...Cano and Cana are a little similar. How about this?

Locileaf -> Raptopy -> Velarbor

And a few more...

Dactin -> Aerodactyl -> Aerodon
Omanite -> Omastar -> Omalaxy
Kabuto -> Kabutops -> Kabucera

Plus some I just made up....

Arkelox (Turtle, Water/Steel) -> Arkterax (Dragon/Steel)
Dodycurse (Armadillo, Ground/Dark) -> Glyphdod (Same)
Yangcho / Yincho (Based off the Yangchuosaurus)

Get more dino names and descriptions from this site (http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/dinosaurs/dinoclassification/Genera.shtml).

[MarineAngemon]

hmm... you may be onto something again Prof. i like those ideas.

i was thinking for the evo of Aerodactyl, it would be Flydon.
Kabuto, Kabutops, Omynite and Omastar will not appear in the game.
the turtle type sounds like a good one. Arkelox and Arkterax, i think both should be Water/Steel. Also Yangcho, hard to think of what type that might be with its size. :\

i had another good one, Delino -> Stransia (Inostrancevia)

sounds good?

[Ionic]

That one sounds very good
They all sound good especially this one

Locileaf -> Raptopy -> Velarbor

[MarineAngemon]

doesnt sound bad, i will stick with what you said Ionic. Raptopy doesnt seem right, Canaptor seems better. so the line is Locileaf -> Velabor -> Canaptor.

the fire Starter's line up is Rabeat -> Raburn -> Flamare. (not a dinosaur, a rabbit pokemon.)

[Ionic]

Aww i can imagine the starting sprite for that it could be the cute one :D.

[MarineAngemon]

it is, think of it like Cyndaquil. i also had a water starter in mind as well.

Pinki -> Pingua -> Zipingi. very hard to think up of a water starter.

[~KiTsUnE]

MAKE A PARASURALOPHUS BASED POKEMON!!!
And make it a grass type :p

seriously, though. Those things own :p



and by the way, I find it VERY odd that we both have "Team Plasma" as the Bad guys o_O
Oh well, I don't mind, seeing as my hack and your game are two completely different plots :p





as for this game, it seems pretty interesting.

[Glitchfinder]

Well, I didn't quite mean that I thought that they'd be fossils. I meant that in any other game, they would be fossils. Also, it's a little difficult to make a two-part game work so that they interact, especially in the sense that Pokemon games do. (Although, something like Zelda games for GBC, Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons, is much more difficult)

what hack is that from? gosh, i didnt know.

yeah i see where you are coming from now. yeah they would be fossils, but they are not, as they are active. it is difficult to make an interacting 2 part game, i know, that would be tough.

got another one, which is a poison type: Planspit. not a dinosaur pokemon.

[Ionic]

Cool it Team Jurassic instead hehe.

You made up your mind on what your going to design it on yet then ?

[MarineAngemon]

still kinda pulling towards Sphere, as most people know Sphere quite well.
i think its about a 1% chance it will be RMXP, any of the other RM makers a 40% chance. Sphere is leading at the minute.

i could, but i am sticking with Ovir and Plesio.

[Ionic]

Ahh.

Good luck then Sphere is very time consuming but with the right expertise can perform a fabulous game.

[MarineAngemon]

ok, i will need it. i think Sphere is good for most things.

dont quite know how many names i need left for this game. possibly just over 70?

[Ionic]

Belstros sounds cool, reminds me of Blastoise a bit lol.

[~KiTsUnE]

What about the Parasouralophus? D=

what hack is that from? gosh, i didnt know.

*pokes the one in her sig*

let's not freak here. it's just interesting seeing somebody else coming up with the same names I have :p (it's like a couple other hacks... this Gold one takes place in the Eon Region... and another is called Pokemon Eon o_O though it's all purely coincidental :p)

lol yay for coincidences o.o

[MarineAngemon]

Belstros? what type would that be?

got another evo: Cromptic -> ???

cant think of that one yet.

[Ionic]

Belstros either grass or rock type i would think.

What type is Cromtic if its not some strong pokemon i would suggest Crompilia
Or if its a Stronger pokemon Cromptetic.
:D

[MarineAngemon]

well it is quite a weak pokemon, think of a Compy. Comphilia -> Cromptic seems better. Cromptic, a bigger Compy, with better attacks. Normal Type.

[Ionic]

how about Crompustic lol ?

[MarineAngemon]

no, i am sticking with Cromptic. i think the rest of the names will be hard to think of.

[Glitchfinder]

lol yay for coincidences o.o

Coincidences can be quite fun. Like running into one of my friends from school in an Animal Crossing website. Or, like the fact that many of the event systems that I create are immediatly preceded by a scripted version. (This wasn't here, although it seems quite odd that someone would be scripting the same thing I'm eventing, despite a lack of requests for it)

Also, try some variations on the small dinosaur compsonathus. (Those are the tiny meat eating dinosaurs in the Jurassic Park movies) Or , you could try some anciant plants or non-dinosaurs. (Like the trilobyte. Oh, and Kabuto is a horseshoe crab) You could even go for some insect life. (Long before dinosaurs existed, you might have run itno something like an eight-foot long centipede, or a spider the site of a boddybuilder's torso. Or even an ant about the size of a tennis ball. (Trust me, that's about as big as those things ever got.) You could even do some of the ancient descendants of the dinosaurs, most of which were gigantic, predatory birds. (Although one type probably died out because those giant ants kept eating their offspring...)

[Prof. Briar]

No, i definitely think that Arkterax should be a dragon. You see, it was based off of the Archaeopteryx (http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/dinosaurs/dinos/Archaeopteryx.shtml). Seeing as it flies, I thought of it being a cousin of Gyrados.

Also, to explain the name Raptopy. (Raptor + Topiary)


I think it's a shame you won't be using the original fossils though. Since there were so few ancient pokemon represented in the first games, I just can't see leaving even one out.

[MarineAngemon]

i could be having them in, but i am not sure as of yet. the thing is, the other fossils, i dont know how long ago certain ancient pokemon lived.
hmm interesting Prof. i may have it as a dragon type, since it looks like one.

[OmegaGroudon]

Looking forward anyway! You can ask for help anytime! I'll help out!

[Prof. Briar]

Just thinking, some of the "ancient" pokemon will be making an appearance, right? You know, like Relicanth or Bulbasaur? You could also fill some slots with pokemon like Baltoy, that look like ancient artifacts.

[Dachampster]

1: A tiny bit cliché, but, do-able.
2: Convert yen to dollars. 2000 yen= about $20 I think.

[HeavyOctillery]

Ah, I just got the version names - Oviraptor & Plesiosaur. Took me a minute once I noticed that this game's to be filled with Dino Pokes up the rear. :P Sounds cool.

I know. Unfortunately, it seems like this is an idea only, any may not develop further. I hope that it will, but I'm not sure that it can. Oh, and the origins of the names were already posted. Very unique, considering that so far the games have all been related to colors. (Every single official RPG for a handheld has had a name that is, essentially, a color. From gold to red to pearl, the only ones that really don't seem to fit are Crystal and Diamond, and that's only if you don't take into account the ability of artists nowadays to create transparent hues.)

[MarineAngemon]

of course, Relicanth will be in it. as for Bulbasaur, it may be in a secret location, and only one chance at catching it.
