Welcome to the Grotto Region, a bustling continent of Lush vegetation and a thriving community of
both Pokemon and humans alike. The Grotto region, a man made region inhabited for only 120 years.
This is one of two of the newest regions in the vast and steadily growing Pokemon world. Lately there
have been many odd occurrences in the region however. New land is starting to rise, unnatural weather
patterns are occurring, slowly changing the regions shape. You are a young boy/girl starting fresh from
the Talgo region just a few days from your Birthday due to the urgent business of your mother/ professor;
Mai. After you receive a birthday gift a bit early, you set off on an epic adventure uncovering the mysterious
truths and beginnings of the two regions along the way meeting new friends, discovering new grounds, and
uncovering the 120 year old legend of the mysterious 3 and the cycle of beginnings.

Verdanturf? Isn't that in Hoenn? :S

Hey FMP why dont you post Carbon in the showcase? I think it already has enough content =p. Also nice update and im looking forward to the game.
Sadly I've tried to on multiple occasions, but I'll try again sooner or later I guess, and thanx ^^

Unusual but unbelievably unique, love to see more from this project! Keep it up, im cheering for you:)

Thanx I'm glad to see someone thinks the Idea Is unique! I should have a pretty decent update next friday or saturday, It should be interesting ^^

[~JV~]

[Saidai No Soba-Ya]

@RedGyarados Thats what I did, and also when I tried to make them smaller it messed the pics up ^^

Note: I will be showing the remade sprite of one of the fakemon made, so look forward to it I will also be introducing another new legedary ^^, and some new maps, and events!

Also I just typed this on my Wii T_T

[ryushin5]

Congratulations FMP you got moved to the game showcase. :D

[<~F.M.P~>]

Thank you Ryushin5...I'm pretty happy about it myself, hopefully I'll be able to get more feedback from everyone on the game. I should have an update up this weekend too.

Note: I will be showing the remade sprites of sone of the fakemon made, so look forward to it I will also be introducing another new legendary ^^, and some new maps, events!, and features
EDIT: I also wanted to know how many people think I should change the name(because it's to original)? I have a few in mind and suggestions would be great, so If you post and think I should give the game a name change please do so.

[Likewise]

nice you got this in :)
i suggest you change the text box, the current one is atrocious, im going to start working on some battle graphics for you.

[<~F.M.P~>]

The text box huh? Okay I was gonna work on some new graphics this week any way ^^...and thanx Battle graphics would be nice, and I'll be sure to return the favor ^^

[sonic smash down]

Gigantic update:

Okay whew...Where to start?...Oh I know! Well start with some pics of the new Battle graphics!

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/NewBGs.png

As you can see. The battle graphics have gone through major changes...The message box was made by me, and the Boxes were created by ~Element, and slightly edited by me (Thanx again ~Element)...Now for the sprites, no This isn't a recap of the last update. It's a new sprite I made of Dakhoothe (More detail about it later in the update)

Next Will be one of the new events made in the game:

Warning:VERY LOOONNNG PICTURE!
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Image1.png
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Image2.png
I think the event was...well...sorta self explanatory so I won't go into detail about it, but If you read the last update and saw the last event...You could make a pretty good assumption as to what's going on with the purple light(that only the white haired man can see o_0)
Also If the pics are to small for you to read, or are hard on your Eyes, please tell me and I'll fix them.

Dakhoothe:
Okay so this next one is about the New Dakhoothe sprite which is in the spoiler below

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Dakhoothe.png
Okay the reasoning behind the before, and after thing, signifies two things
One:The sprite before It was redone
Two:How It looks made from scratch(you know with paper and pencil, oh and A scanner ^^)
It also now has a custom cry which I think I'll put in the next update.

The grass starter:

Now I'm sure your wondering why I would put "The grass starter" as an update...well It's just like the Dakhoothe sprite...Just grassier, take a look and see what I mean ^^

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/BeforeAfter.png
Okay so this will be the final Sprites I make of Velgrus, Veloras, and Velaseptor, which also happen to be the grass starter in your adventure...please tell me what you think about them.

Announcements:

Man okay...I'm glad that's all outta the way...Now for some new features I want in the game

I'm getting sick of seeing the same looking trainer sprites(even though there custom made) every time I battle...so I wanted to turn this game around a little and make it a little more User friendly...Or face friendly...so I've created a new feature called the PC(Pokecommunity)Feature, where Anyone and everyone that wants to be part of the game, can make a custom Trainer and Overworld sprite(s) of themself and send it to me Via PM and I'll put it in the game...There are rules however

One: You must make the sprite on your own...No stealing other peoples sprites Or OW's
two: You can ASK someone to make them for you but you must tell me so, and give credit to that person.

And those are the only rules.

Next I wanted to talk about positions...I'm really looking for more Spriters to help the current team with fakemon seeing as how we only have 79/150 made, so If you can make scratch sprites Please PLEASE tell me...I am also looking for someone(s) who is good with making back pics...this is really needed right about now so If you can do that please let me know...

Bonus Round:

Now it's time for the bonus round where I show or talk about a little something extra
In this bonus round, you get to see A new legendary I scratched and pixelated...well part of it anyway :(

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Legendary.png

Now as you saw...It was all black, and scary looking, but the only reason for that is because I can't think of a good palette for it, so If you want to see it first hand, and Have a good Idea of a palette for it, or can color it in and make it look nice...Please VM, or PM me.

Thats all everyone. HOPE YOU ENJOYED!

For anyone who didn't see the update. It's on post 59...Please look at that also, and tell me what you think ^^

[WhiteMarker]

Hey! I just figured I'd drop by and note how pro this game looks! I don't know quite how to compare it to anything else, but I'm impressed just by lookin' at it!

In other news, as I've said, I'll totally remix and/or write some music for the game! You don't appear to have many folks workin' on that portion of the project, so I figured I'd throw that out there on your thread. Um... As far as the application's concerned, I'll PM you if you really need any info. All I really need to know is what program you want me to use to write the MIDI files or whatever you plan on using. Naturally, I'll be writing everything on PowerTab first, but unless you want everything to sound completely different from other games, I wouldn't recommend exporting the MIDI from that.

That's pretty much all I have to say. Once again, good work thus far!

[~JV~]

Nice update FMP, and i want to color this legendary guy for you =p (send me a PM)

[<~F.M.P~>]

Nice update FMP, and i want to color this legendary guy for you =p (send me a PM)

Of course you can JV...I'll Pm you the outline right now.

Ha ha ha alright I'll try to figure out what you need in order to make custom music!

[O.G. Duke]

Personally, I think the screenshot's map are too plaine. And the charset of the Proffesor is weird. I mean the hair. There is no outline, looks strange.

Other than that, the game look nice. I'm looking forward to see the shadow of the legendary pokemon being unveiled.

[Crosell]

I like the story and all, nice screens too good job.
But I dont really like the fakemon.
They look not like real pokemon, I've seen like 3 fakemon in the screens, so I dont be harsh on them.
Maybe the others are better.
Good luck though!

Edit: if you want I can do the legendary for you, but if you had someone else to do it nevermind then..

Thanx Omega, and someones working on coloring in the legendary right now so It'll be in the next update, and the maps are supposed to look that way...They get better down the road ^^...I'll be sure to fix the hair on the OW thanx for looking out!

Thank you, and I don't really think thier's a basis as to how to make fakemon look like real pokemon unless there actually made by nintendo lol ^^...all I can say is did you check out post #59? It has more fakemon in it, and You can take a shot at the legendary if you feel like it.

[Crosell]

Okay I will give it a try, I'm kinda bored now so.
I'll Pm you about it.
And about the sprites again in post 59.
there better, but just a tip, make there atonamy abit more realm some parts look strange like the feet.
Just a tip, making fakemon for a game is difficult.

[BaconBoy914]

Jesse's in-battle sprite looks horrible ...

[Crosell]

Jesse's in-battle sprite looks horrible ...

And you could atleast tell him why it looks horrible.
Post's like that are not needed unless you give you good explanation about the sprite.
Only thing you do now is express your opinion...

[<~F.M.P~>]

Jesse's in-battle sprite looks horrible ...

Yes would you please explain why Baconboy? I can't improve it unless I'm told whats wrong. :/.

Updated first post by the way ^^

[BaconBoy914]

Sorry, it mainly his hair, I know it's white, but I would still get a more gray outline. Also, he looks like he has umm, feminine appendages, & his left shoe needs to be a little bit brigter

[<~F.M.P~>]

Alright thanx...and feminine...I get what you mean, but It's a sprite not a human...I don't think that would Improve it...Honestly I think people would laugh...I'll work on him this week and post the new sprite in next weeks update :)

[BaconBoy914]

OK, whatever, I know it's a sprite, but Jesse is a boy right?

[Poeman]

This looks extremly promising!

[<~F.M.P~>]

This looks extremly promising!

Thanx...I'm currently learning a few things so the last update for the game will be this friday or saturday. Then I'll be off for a good 2-3 weeks learning...I'm also working on a secret project for myself and Omegagroudon, which I hope will be completed in the next few weeks ^^.

EDIT: Also I don't know how many of you know, but all the old pokemon will be in the game as well as 150 fakemon...just thought I'd put that out there for those who don't like fakemon.

[<~F.M.P~>]

UPDATE:

Okay...so last time I got some comments saying that the assistants hair was to light on the OW so I went and tried to darken his hair so that you could all see the outline.
The old pics on the right, new pic on the left.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Colorchange.png

Okay, I'm pretty sure His hairline is noticeable now! ^^...I also received comments on his sprite saying It didn't look to good, so yet again It's being totally redone(YAY!) I'll have to post that in next weeks update. There are also a large group of trainer, and secret sprites being made so I hope you all look forward to that.

NEW BATTLE GRAPHICS?:

Now, since I don't want to put the whole story out there I decided to show some In battle sequences showing off some of the new Battle graphics I've been working on.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/plain.png
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/grass-1.png

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/water-1.png
Please note that these are still WIP, and I'm trying to find ways to make them look better so any comments would be nice telling me what I should or shouldn't add. Also for anyone who looked at the old update...You may or may not be able to tell that I spruced up the Battle boxes a bit...I'd also love some feedback on those too! ^^

Announcements:

Okay this is a message from the other update, but New people check everytime so I thought I'd respost it

I'm hate seeing the same looking trainer sprites(even though there custom made) every time I battle...so I wanted to turn this game around a little and make it a little more User friendly...Or face friendly...so I've created a new feature called the PC(Pokecommunity)Feature, where Anyone and everyone that wants to be part of the game, can make a custom Trainer and Overworld sprite(s) of themself and send it to me Via PM and I'll put it in the game...There are rules however

Also Here's a quote about positions from last update

Next I wanted to talk about positions...I'm really looking for more Spriters to help the current team with fakemon seeing as how we only have 79/150 made, so If you can make scratch sprites Please PLEASE tell me...I am also looking for someone(s) who is good with making back pics...this is really needed right about now so If you can do that please let me know...

So far we've gained another 3 members(WOHOO!), and I really wanna thank them for joining! ^^ along with my other teammates...I really appreciate your dedication to the game...without you all, this game wouldn't even be in development!

WHAT?! A NEW FEATURE?!:

Yes a new feature called Porta. PC! Now you can carry a small transport/store system everywhere you go! Here's a pic of it...

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/newpokegear-1.png

Basically it's for those times where Your at a certain place, and you need a pokemon such as charizard to use strength on a bolder but you didn't bring it along...so this feature comes in handy there!...There will also be new features added in due time. Also some credit is due to OmegaGroudon for helping me solve a bug in the script! Thanx alot man XD.

Bonus Round:

Now it's time for the bonus round where I show or talk about a little something extra
In this bonus round, you get to see A new legendary! and yes it's the same from last time...well this time it has a color scheme, and It looks great ^^ there is some explanation to the sprite however, but first take a look.


Endalgo:Fire/Dark type
Created from the mind of Metricity, Endalgo unleashed 900 degree lava that it's counterpart cooled down in order to create the Grotto, and Mahko Regions. It's dark fur is a symbol that ties it to metricity.
Now for my explanation...Well The look of the Pokemon is all thanx to JV12345, and Crosell who each came up with different color schemes for the pokemon, but since they both had something I liked in them...Well I added them together! Great job you two!, and thanx!

Well Thats it everyone. HOPE YOU ENJOYED! Please leave a comment if you can, and tell me whats good, and what must be improved!

[ryushin5]

I like the update FMP i love the battle backs the legendary looks nice and i like the portable PC feature hey will there be some kind of limit or restraint to when you can use it or can you use it anytime you feel like it?

[BaconBoy914]

The OW is/was fine, but the in battle was to dark ...

[<~F.M.P~>]

I like the update FMP i love the battle backs the legendary looks nice and i like the portable PC feature hey will there be some kind of limit or restraint to when you can use it or can you use it anytime you feel like it?

Yes there will be certain restraints, such as battling a certain boss, or completing a certain event, ect. and thanx.

The OW is/was fine, but the in battle was to dark ...

Uhm...Okay...

[Lornami P.]

:o You should of told me ya'll had a new thread! I linked the really old one on my Sprite Thread, but I've updated it now.

^_^ It looks really good! Quite a-ways from when you started!
If you need me to re-do any of my sprites just tell me. It looks like you used the Gym Leader in the old screenshots as the professor?

[PoKéMaKeR]

Nice I really like it so far
but the new feature I don't think that's such a good idea to be honest because it's like you can take all pokémon with you (you know what I mean?)

[DamianLeonhart]

Such Tiny Text! Anywho, the Portable PC is a bad idea I think. It's like a never ending supply of Pokémon whenever I need them. I understand that sometimes it will be disabled but, I think that if someone forgot a Pokémon that they needed for a specific reason then they deserve to have to go all the way back to a PC and switch Pokémon. A well balanced team should suit any trainer with the option of one HM slave.

[O.G. Duke]

Glad to see your update.
You don't need to thank me even.XD
The sprite looks nice!

[Exiled~Shadow]

kool updates man. sry 4 voting lowly... i pressed wrong bttn

[<~F.M.P~>]

No worries man...It'll get better in the next few weeks, and thanx

Thanx man, and I feel it's needed to thank you...You went through alot of hard thinking for it.

You all are starting to get my attention with this concern...I agree, but I'll try to think of something, or I may get rid of it all together. Thanx though

Thanks ;), and yes I did use the Gym leader I've been wanting to get a professor sprite done, but I've been busy with other things...I just found someone who's good at trainers, and such, so He's making one.

[DamianLeonhart]

If it stays or goes I still think that it's good for this game and that you deserve props for going beyond the starter kit to attempt something different and out there that people have not thought of.

[Pika Storm]

maybe the laptop system could only work in cities, large towns, and a limited area in the surrounding routes, but not in caves, forests, during battles, ect...

[<~F.M.P~>]

If it stays or goes I still think that it's good for this game and that you deserve props for going beyond the starter kit to attempt something different and out there that people have not thought of.

Thank you very much :) That just gives me more encouragement to keep new Ideas coming, and make the game even better!

maybe the laptop system could only work in cities, large towns, and a limited area in the surrounding routes, but not in caves, forests, during battles, ect...

Thats not a bad Idea, but I think iv'e worked something out for the system...I'll show it in the latest update when I get back from my slightly extended leave.

[Pikachu™]

I like the layout its awesome but some of the pic have come out wrong so u might want to fix that.

[<~F.M.P~>]

Ummm do you mean the small ones? I'll try to fix them later when I get back...Thanx

Thanx. I'm currently in Colorado right now, due to sad circumstances, and work on the game has been slow due to the fact that I'm helping out many others, but Right now we are working on a new title screen, and I'm writing up a new menu system for the game, as well as making a new feature that seems pretty nice! Hopefully I'll be able to show them off when I get back.

(Also working on better legendaries)

[ryushin5]

Can't wait for the next updat FMP it sounds real interesting. :D

[<~F.M.P~>]

Thanx alot! I'm currently working on the new features and will probably be able to show them at the end of this week, I have also made new sprites for the starters and wanted opinions on them. so Here's the first one.

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=1309&pictureid=14882
It's the new burlasie...I want to get some feedback on it.
Here's the old one.
http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=1309&pictureid=14883

So any suggestions anybody?

I'm not sure, because of the totally different poses on those two, I like the old one because of the colour in the tail (or is it a tail lol) and I like the new one aswell but that's more because of the pose it has, but all in all I should stick to the old one!

PoKéMaKeR

[O.G. Duke]

To be honest, I really like the new one.
I like the pose.
But it's just my opinion, though.

[sonic smash down]

yea have to agree with them fmp the old one is better just needs more detial into it. (but love its pose) its your choice though dude

[~JV~]

If i were you i would stick with the new one, the old one is facilg to the sides which is just wrong. Maybe if you recolor its tail it will looks better ^^.

[Mytrix]

I really like this game. The screen shots are great, although, the mapping needs little work. But overall the game is looking amazing so far.
Best of luck on this.

To all the above:

Thank you all for your suggestions. Here's the new one with the same colored tail as the old one

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=1309&pictureid=14917

and I think I have a solution for the 2 poses. when you pick your starter you will have the choice of picking one of the 2 poses rather than just the usual one.

Does everything that was born, and created in the new land also cease to exist? It's dangerous to think we can create everything. Even the best inventions, come with great consequences."
It's vague...but, if its intent is a just to be an attention-getter, then it does its job. And it's promising to see some language just a bit more sophisticated than all of the typos and 'lol's and 'alot's around here...

Half of it I love, and half of it I do not agree with...I'll be watchin' for more info.

[<~F.M.P~>]

I'll answer these in the order you wrote.

"The flow of this very region is controlled by three. We call it the cycle of beginnings, but what happens if the cycle is interrupted? Does the land cease to exist? Does everything that was born, and created in the new land also cease to exist? It's dangerous to think we can create everything. Even the best inventions, come with great consequences."
It's vague...but, if its intent is a just to be an attention-getter, then it does its job. And it's promising to see some language just a bit more sophisticated than all of the typos and 'lol's and 'alot's around here...Yes that was the intent :)

The Grotto Region Name Check-->Superb Thank you. A man made region Yes! again thank you. inhabited by man and pokemon for only 23 years So what's it made of? For all I know of right now, it's a lunar outpost cant tell you yet ;), but It's natural and comes from earth so don't worry..... This is one of two of the newest regions ...oh, please not two legendaries, one per region Nope, not even close... in the vast and steadily growing pokemon world, but lately the region has seemed unstable .... There have been tremors and earthquakes occurring everywhere Yeah? So? Send them to western America; that place is decimated with earthquakes (remember, Surge went to America) this falls in with one of your comments below...! New land is magically Oh really? it all happens for a reason popping up and natural disaters are slowly breaking the region apart! [/unoriginality] how so? You are a young boy/girl in this region, starting fresh from Terilvine City Your names are top-notch! and again thanx three days before your birthday ...at least not -on- your birthday (my thought too)., along side you is the cause of your sudden move So THAT'S what you meant by fresh? Yuck, cliche alert how so?... (your mom)who also happens to be one of the top professors Juuuust happens to be yep :)..., and helping hand in the creation of the two regions. After experiencing an earthquake in Giltine Town Again,the names are enticing And again Thank you...., your sent out on an epic adventure, you set off on your journey uncovering weird truths and the origins of this mysterious and slowly decaying region So the only problem you've really established is the natural disasters...but, if the region is synthetic, how would it have normal geologic features? Was it carved outta another region (Ratchet and Clank, people)?Nope not at all. the storyline is totally different I assure you. along the way meeting new friends, pokemon, cities and Islands. All the while fighting unexpected enemies, collecting badges + much more!

There's more? Sweet! well of course! :)
You start the game off asleep in your room, You then wake up and go downstairs. No ones home but you. So You decide to go outside, and look around, you stop to find there"s a note on the table beside the door for you though. So you read it and find that your mom wants you to come on down to the Pokemon lab C'mon...come up with something ebtter than this, seriously. Hmmm...You'd have to play the game to fully understand. to pick up something for your birthday did you read this part?. So as you leave the house and proceed to the pokemon lab. Something strange occurs...A purple Flash of light? Ghost-type attacks are purple close, but nope.... Then almost just as the light appears an earthquake starts rumbling the town So does whoever crafted the region have the power to alter it? If that be the case, this is went another tier up now you've sorta got it! This comment also links to one of them above......Your then sent running into the pokemon Lab for shelter, And thats where I'll leave off for you all ...pff Hmmm... Also, after you receive your starter pokemon. Make sure to get the Running shoes and the Pokegear(soon to be changed) from the assistant to make your traveling easier Why the assistant? Does he have a reason to give you this junk?well If you wanna progress through the game a bit easier Your gonna need it. That's why.Was he instructed to do so by mommy?.nope

Idealists - 2 positions open I've gotta ask...what exactly does the 'Idealist' do? xD Shouldn't you all be idealists?well yeah that's actually a good point, but an idealist comes up with the main ideas for the game. you work closer with them than your friends. Part of your team...you get what I mean?

Great job, Flood! I love the characters! Great work! :D

[Crosell]

Flood, I kinda deleted my private messages.
So I dont know what needs to be done for you.
If you can Pm me what is needed, thanks :)

[h POKE]

This game shows quite a bit of promise. The idea of a man-made region is definitely something we don't see very often around here. Most of the fakemon sprites are alright (Pyaroo is my personal favorite). The main thing is they could use some work:

Velgrus: This has the very distinctive "flat" look found in a lot of the sprites from first and second gen. Try to add some change in color around the face area/extra shadowing to brighten up the look.

Pyaroo: This sprite looks wonderful. It is tastefully shaded with well-matched colors. Hopefully future fakemon will look like this.

Burlasie: The eyes are well-done, but the head could use some work. The bright red hue of the ear is a bit too vibrant IMO, and the head is a little disporportionate.

Cripet: This is mainly a good sprite, except the eyes. Eyes tend to have a great effect on the feel of the pokemon, and right now, they make it look very bland. Instead of those big, black Dream eyes, I suggest using grayish-blue compound eyes.

As for the screenshots, the title screen is a bit distracting, if only because of that blaring photoshop effect. The pokemon reminds me a lot of a purple Houndoom. Your mom (as in, the character's) looks like a hooker, no offense. The maps look too balnd in some places, but very crowded in others. I like the lampost light effects as well as the railing, but the boxy FR/LG pokecenter doesn't really fit in this game. And by the way, for your dialogue (which is fine other than the fact that the grammar could use a little help), YOU SHOULDN'T USE ALL CAPITALS TO GET A POINT ACROSS BECAUSE IT GIVES A VERY UNPROFFESSIONAL LOOK TO WHAT YOU'RE WRITING. The starter selction screen, and tilesets all look very refreshing and new.

Just keep at it, and you'll do fine. The story has promise, and the graphics are something to be envied.

Thank you for your comment h poke...Most of the things you mentioned with the fakemon have been fixed besides the eyes on cripet.
A new titlescreen was made just recently and will be revealed in the next update...as well as 2 others. The mother was actually a gym leader, but was used to substitute Prof.Oak while the new professor was being made...That will also be in the next update.

Thanx for your comment. I greatly appreciate it. ;)

I will have a new update by next week. I'm currently having small script errors which should be fixed soon.

[anugrah6]

When we can download it?

[<~F.M.P~>]

When we can download it?

There may be a possible demo somewhere in mid January, but the game is far from being finished.

[Nytkoi]

You're welcome, you're welcome! :] Great job!

[h POKE]

Generally, I think small demos (but I usually keep this to myself) are a bad thing. Psychologically, when you make a demo, you think you're ahead of the game, right? And when you think you're ahead, you stop working as hard (the main reason TLW hasn't fallen apart yet). So, if you keep on thinking like you did when you were at peak enthusiasm (i.e, when you started out), you won't soon get tired of your game. The worst thing in the world, IMO, that can happen to a game is for false hope to consume the designer.

I understand what you mean...I'll have to take that into consideration.

On a side note, I have started working on a new fakemon/potential Fire starter. I would like to get votes on which one you all would like to see as the Fire starter in game.

The old fire starter Pyaroo

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=2216&pictureid=15259http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=2216&pictureid=15260

please vote for one if you have the time. thanx.

[PokemonOI]

The userbars are really well done man! I think that the old one is better.:classic:

[O.G. Duke]

I'll vote for the new one.
I would prefer the new one cause I like the cute design.

[Nytkoi]

I like the new starter. Great job! <3

[h POKE]

Aww... The sprite of Pyaroo is clearly in view, but my computer won't show Eurdeer. Everyone is saying it's a good one, but all I can do is take their word for it.

[<~F.M.P~>]

Well I'll just have to fix that so you can view it...Can you see this one?
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Flaraeer4.png

[= GPR =]

i'm sorry fmp... the new fire doe looks beautiful...but it doesn't seem to fit the starter base... although doing things differently never seemed to bother us before...

But i still like pyaroo and his famiy! i just liked his idea... his entries ^_^ and his design... the new proposed starter seems kinda big for a basic starter, how big would his evo's get? if you noticed, all the pokemon of grotto are a bit smaller than usual, something i purposely did to emphasize the "big three" and also which a side effect of species displacement, especially on a new region.

as for burlassie...i like the new sprite much more! it is far more complex, and not as 2D as the old one... just the legs need some work, they seem really skinny and stick strait...

i'll pm for the rest i have to say...

[Den]

Pyaroo has a better sprite in my opinion, but Eurudeer is a better concept.
So I think you should use Eurudeer but keep Pyaroo somewhere in the dex.

[<~F.M.P~>]

Thank you to all votes. So far the score is

New Old
3-----4

The voting ends this Friday so please, please vote If you haven't.

[Ash987]

I vote... The old one. The old one just looks better. (Don't ask me why)

[Pika Storm]

I like the old one, the new one looks good, but for like a rattata/sentret/zigzagoon pokemon. (when I say that I mean one of the normal type pokemon that is spread throughout the region and can be caught from the begining).

BTW, the new one looks a bit flat, like gsc, just to let you know

[<~F.M.P~>]

[css-div="padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; border: solid 5px Indigo; font-variant: small-caps; color: Indigo; background-color: gray ;"]UPDATE:

Okay...I haven't given a reasonable update in at least 2 weeks for the simple fact that I've been really busy helping others with there games... so I think it's about that time!

The new Firestarter will be:
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Thestarters-1.png

Well the results are in, and It's time to show who won the majority votes...The Firestarter for Carbon will BEEEEE!

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/whos%20that%20pokemon/PyarooIP.png
Pyaroo with the majority vote of 8 to 4!
I really appreciate everyone's vote, and now that we have the official firestarter...It's time to re-create new sprites for it and it's evo's!

Hmmmm...What now...Oh I guess this will do.

The new Titlescreen:

Well We ALL wanted a new one(Myself included)So I did just that! take a look below.
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Ttilescreen.png
Info: Okay so You may or may not be wondering, why are there 2 pictures? One Black, and one blue?...Well Just like in Ruby, and sapphire the main parts on the legendary on the title screen glow in and out!. I hope you all like it!

New things In-game:

Well of course there have been a few problems mentioned to me about some of the screens, but now I have started to work on them. Here are a few! Also new info.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/Newingame.png
Explanation of screens in order from left to right:
pic 1- The main professor of the game...It was originally the flame gymleader for the game used as a replacement, but now We finally have her!
Pic 2-Okay as many of you know. That's the load, continue, new, etc. screen. We now have a new background for it, and the plain boxes will be replaced and shown hopefully in next times update.
pic 3- Just a simple screen of the grass/bug pokemon and the grass starter Velgrus. Whats new about this? Well nothing except that Velgruses palette and shading is new and improved...I'll keep working on it until it's perfect!
pic 4- Well That would be the First Gym leader you face! Hiru, uses bird type pokemon(remind you of anyone?)

New OW'S:

Thanx to Lornami and her amazing talent. The game finally has new heroine OW's and I couldn't be any happier with the work shown in them.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/TheGirlsOWs.png
The thing I love most is that when she moves...Her hair sways!...It took me a sec to notice.

The new map:


Well I was told that my mapping needs work so thats exactly what I'm trying to do. As you can see below...This is the new map for Bailey City.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/udates/BaileyCity.png

The bottom of the map leads to route 1 and Giltine Town, and the top left leads to Route 3
Comments critique?

Bonus Round:

Now it's time for the bonus round where I show or talk about a little something extra
In this bonus round, you get to see some new pokemon!

ooo very nice Flood ^^
i see there will be a new water starter?

[sonic smash down]

okay first of all man: loved the teaser wonder what happened to that mart., and a great idea with the titlescreen. great screens and you know already i loved that bug cricket pokemon, next is the gym leader screen. thats ovous flacor (or something like that) first gym in johto, flying type. ive already commented on the shadows and stuff to you. i had a sneak peak at this and still loved it man. great job

[O.G. Duke]

Wow. It's a huge update.
I'm glad to see that.
Btw, I think I already tell you the way to change the window in Pokemon Load screen.
Hope to see update for it next time.

[<~F.M.P~>]

ooo very nice Flood ^^
i see there will be a new water starter?
No...New sprites have been made for it however...all Starters have been or are currently being redone with proper shading, different poses, etc. and thank you ^^

Thank you. The shadow effect has to deal with the script in which I will attempt to edit later on. but thanx for the comment!

Thanx! You did tell me, but It didn't work out quite how I expected to so I'll have to try again later, but It should be done by the time the next update rolls around.

[h POKE]

Wonderful. I love the new sprites, including the heroine and actual professor. It's a refreshing change to a lot of the molds of many other games. I must admit that the back sprite for Velgrus is a little misproportioned, but that's hardly noticeable.
The title screen is different, yet in a good way. I also like the new map, although it seems empty in some places.
My favorite part is the ruined town screenshot. I once had the idea for burned-out ruins, but I never knew what it would look like in pokemon graphics. Now, I know.

Thank you h POKE. The backsprite of Velgrus is at least a year old( I've been planning this for quite a while.)so I'll be making another one while I'm away. Also speaking of ruines I have a small update showing a few screens of new events and ingame materials for those of you who are actually looking at the game.

Update:

Well usually I have a really big update for the game, but today I'm just going to show a few screens.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Latestupdatescreen.png

Info on screens in order(right to left)
Pic 1 - Thats what the new continue, new game, options, etc. screen will look like in game
pic 2 - How do you go from a nice warm looking cave. to staring at a sign that says confidential area only? Well I don't want to ruin the story for those of you interested.
pic 3 - Ruins...Yes from earthquakes...wait black water? Yes black water(and a floating tree trunk)...Theirs more to this earthquake then you know(an earthquake wasn't the only thing that occured.) we'll just have to wait and see.
pic 4 - Just a continuation of the warning...SUB-ZERO Temperatures?...Wonder why?

Well Thats it for now. When I come back I'll give a big update.

[Pika Storm]

I don't mean to be a stickler or anything, but nothing can survive even one second in subzero temperatures, so if they were to find out that it was subzero, they would be dead and could not have put up the sigh :\

But anyway, the new screenies look awsome!http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Most people are capable of surviving in conditions below zero (either centigrade or fahrenheit) for a good amount of time before contracting frostbite. With a good coat on, a sub-zero cave is pretty believable...
Anyways, the update is cool, especially the curved menu format. Although I must admit I was a little disappointed that the town in the top left was only destroyed by an earthquake (expecting sabotage, much?), your updates are still intriguing as ever.

[Theik]

You're most likely thinking 'absolute zero', which is −459.67 degrees Fahrenheit. Sub-zero only requires temperatures below zero, which is like -17 degrees celcius.

The north pole is colder than that during the winter, and last I checked, there's plenty of stuff there that survives for longer than a second. ;)

[O.G. Duke]

Good update.
But for the first screenshot, the text is dark, so the box should be light colour.
Just to tell you. It's hard to see the text clearly.

[<~F.M.P~>]

I don't mean to be a stickler or anything, but nothing can survive even one second in subzero temperatures, so if they were to find out that it was subzero, they would be dead and could not have put up the sign :\

But anyway, the new screenies look awsome!http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Thank you.

Lol...Like I said...It's waaaayyy more than just an earthquake this time. We'll just have to wait and see.

The story is quite unique, and has the potential to be quite interesting. Just be sure to add in lots of detail, otherwise it'd be a bit bland. One thing I also want to comment on is the battle interface; it's somewhat ugly. The text contrasts dramatically with the background and it's rather hard to read.

Just a tip: when adding graphics, keep both 480x320 and 240x160 in mind. In the fourth screenshot of the latest update, for example, the player's battle base hasn't been resized, meaning that it'd look quite strange when the player sets the screen size to normal.

[Vampire://Krimm]

Cute updates, Flood <3

Though I have one complaint, on your update prior to last, the hero has numerous shadows during day time. I'd suggest removing that, because your character wouldn't have shadows extending in various directions if it were reality, and even if it is just a game it looks a bit strange :x

As for the current update, the earthquake tiles and stuff looks awesome :3 Can't wait to see more from this project~

^^ Thank you Krimm. Yes the shadow problem Has been mentioned to me before, and I'm fixing it all now. I will have a gigantic update upon my return to the game showcase to reveal alot thats been missed. Thanx.

[h POKE]

I almost feel bad for the amount of work that you still have to get done on this game...
I'm kind of bored of playing it after about a half-hour, but maybe that's just me. Plus, there needs to be a bit more of a little something I like to call punctuation in the script. If you're planning on keeping the story the way it is (and not use the idea I gave you this morning), then I can edit it for you. That is, if you have it written down in one place.
By the way, Parmal seems too Christmas-y to be for a year-round game. If you want to put it into the game, I'd suggest changing the color scheme on it a bit.
Edit:
The little steel type (or so that is what type I believe it to be) ball-with-a-diaper pokemon found on Route 2 could use some work. It just doesn't look like an authentic pokemon at all. But I'm guessing most of the pokemon you programmed in but we haven't discussed are up in the air anyways.

[<~F.M.P~>]

Well...Carbon isn't back exactly, but I guess that doesn't mean the thread can't be...Before the crash, we were hard at work touching up carbon a bit. If you want to see what I mean, You can look at the main thread. ;)

[Pika Storm]

I like the new water starter, but I thought that the poll said that the fire starter would stay....

[Sandro™]

Wow... Its been quite a while that i've been here... But will you come back with Pokemon Carbon???

[= GPR =]

Wow... Its been quite a while that i've been here... But will you come back with Pokemon Carbon???

Don't worry, we haven't even gone anywhere... we are just having some technical diffuculties with the backup files, and the fact that they weren't as updated as desired... never the less, do not worry! Carbon is alive, and will be back on it's feet sooner than later, FMP just needs to get a computer...or at least get this one repaired!

Thanks to everyone who has been popping by here, your support makes our game a reality! I'll see you all in a week or so. Until then, you know the drill!

Take Care!

(Spriters) Keep Spriting!!!

By the way FMP, i have about a quarter of the move sets done... T_T

Thank you for explaining GP...Yes Carbon is still alive...I just got a decent source of internet(Been on my Wii latley) and We have a backup of Carbon, but a few things are missing, however most can be easily recovered.

Wow... Its been quite a while that i've been here... But will you come back with Pokemon Carbon???

Glad to see you again. Carbon isn't dead just a few setbacks.

I like the new water starter, but I thought that the poll said that the fire starter would stay....

At this point Im not to sure =/ The Kangaroo looks a bit closer to a real pokemon(I guess), however the evos of the Deer really show a bit more promise than the Kangaroo, so...We'll see.

[Disturbed]

Tyree, awesome news for you :D

It seems as though I figured out the problem that caused RMXP to not work....
Thus meaning, I can now help with mapping :)
VM or PM me any time if you want me to map.

Also, the new updates look fantastic! Keep up the stellar job!

Wow Just in time too...I have a fresh computer up and running RMXP(No internet though)I would be real happy if you'd help out Jake ;) Your maps are always great.

And thank you...I may have a new update up soon also.

P.S. I hope you're enjoying RMXP.

[h POKE]

Awesomesauce... The thread is back up. But it would be a lot cleaner if you started it over again. Whatever, it's not my business. Anyways Flood, I'm still able to write, even though I deleted a lot of my records... Don't ask.

P.S. While I was gone, I practiced my game-making skills a lot. That means I could also fill in making some maps on the side, if you'd like.

[ZhaneAugustine]

Tight when will it be ready to play?

Yeah I thought about starting over again, but It would have taken a bit longer than I would have wanted, so.

I'm glad you'll still be able to help out too, and Right now. Mapping isn't an issue since My good friend Disturbed fixed his RMXP so Thank you though, but I do need your writing skills.

Tight when will it be ready to play?

Not for a while...We just transferred the game to D/P style, and we've redone quite a bit. but thank you.

Update

I realize I've been off quite a bit but Carbon is still going strong.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/updatepic1.png

Explanation of pics in order:
pic1: I know you've all seen this picture but I just wanted to show you all the starters in one pic
pic2: Well proffesor Mai has been DP styled finally...so I thought I'd show that...How does it look?
pic3: That would be Marcus(Yes it's his actuall name)In DP style...again, how does it look?
pic4:And This would just be the pokemon selection screen....I thought this would be good to show for the final evos in the background....Heres a better pic if you need it.
http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/pokechoice.png

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/updatepic2.png
Explanation of pics in order: New battle screen look
pic1:The new fight command box....I love this much better.
pic2:The command box...It's bland like that for a reason...I'll improve on it later though
pic3:This just shows the new color for the Exp bar.
pic4:...It's just a placement pic. I'll have the new Menu done next update.

Thats all for now...comments would be greatly appreciated.

[victorspvl]

very nice updates!

Keep going with the game!

[ryushin5]

Wow FMP nice dude this is really awesome. :D

[Neo-Dragon]

The new screenshots look really well. I like the look of the battle commands. I don't like the brown EXP bar though. I think you should go with a really bright color to match the HP bar. Maybe even a silver color or something like that.

[h POKE]

I'm going to have to agree with Neo-Dragon on the above-mentioned EXP bars... although I myself like the color, I think that it would look better if the RGB values were toned up a bit.

The new sprites look really great, although I'm kind of unsure about why you put that funky background behind Professor Mai... It seems like something that would be animated- in motion, even though I'm pretty sure it won't be.

A great idea for the new fire starter, but where's Pyaroo? Will it still be a pokemon in-game?

[<~F.M.P~>]

I'll tone them up a little more. Thank you and actually I wanted to animate the background so when you click it forms together then a pokemon appears....something to that effect I'll do that a bit later on.

and thank you, Pyaroo will still be in the game It will be an easter egg event.

[Pika Storm]

I was re reading the first post and noticed the carbon cycle. How exactly does the carbon cycle work? and how does it fit into the other regions?

[<~F.M.P~>]

It makes a little more sense If you could see the actual legends, but I will not show them until I get to a certain point in the game.

[Pika Storm]

Ok, I can wait, although I already know one of them...

[Sandro™]

Oh a update! Really nice done FMP.
And if you need help. You know where to get me! ^^
Oh and Btw. Love the Menu Screen!

Thank you...another Update should be nearing...I just finished a minibox script...I'll provide more info on that in the next update though.

Well I guess I should have posted when I had the update finished...here it is.

Update

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=2216&pictureid=18454
Explanation of pics in order:
Pic 1: Yep...If we're redoing carbon, might as well redo the titlescreen right? Well the good thing about this one is...It has the D/P effect and everything...I have a vid below if you're interested.

pic 2: This was inspired by Omegagroudon...I didn't get proper permission to use his palettes and everything so If he wants I'll remove these images immediately...Sorry Omega...this is the new Trainer I.D card...where are the badges you ask? You'll see in the next update ;)

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=2216&pictureid=18453
Explanation of pics in order:
pic 1: Just a picture of what the Hero looks like...I'll post the female in the next update. I also moved the enemy bar up a bit more.

pic 2: The Grotto region. It's still a bit plain though...Also still in the works.

pic 3: Also inspired by Omegagroudon(Same statements apply as the one above) It's known as the pokewrist. I liked the new look and thought having a whole pic of the gadget rather than just the screen seemed a bit better...I'll be adding on to this in the future to give it the feeling that the player is really looking at it...you'll see what I mean later on.

pic 4:...If anyone who's been here before remembers the Mini Pc and how it had the problem of having a plethora of pokemon from your pc at your disposal anywhere...I modified the script to make it a bit better...Now the player can only place 6 pokemon in the ministorage(might make it 3)and they no longer heal if you place them in there and try to take them back out...adds a bit more of a challenge don't you think?

[ryushin5]

Wow amazing update FMP that's feaking awesome I like the mini PC storage feature you worked on can't wait to see more.

[h POKE]

More great stuff Flood. I believe I put this in Issue one.

Still, let's hope you can come up with some more of your own stuff soon. I liked the previous update almost more than this because you put in your own stuff, as opposed to this, which has a region map (okay), but then a lot of designs of Omega Groudon's. Good, but not separate game material.

[Exiled~Shadow]

i can only see the video...

[<~F.M.P~>]

Wow amazing update FMP that's feaking awesome I like the mini PC storage feature you worked on can't wait to see more.

Thank you Ryu. I was pretty satisfied with how well it worked out too...The real PC still works fine also...just thought that should be clarified :)

Thank you...Omega's Idea and my ideas are still majorly different...I was just inspired by some of his designs and colors.You'll see what I mean when I'm totally finished with my designs of each.

i can only see the video...

Hmmm...maybe it's the
theme you're using.

[Exiled~Shadow]

no, i changed theme multiple times and i still cant see... but i can see the pic's on all your other updates

I wanted to do this week finished so I will have to be postponed :( But It's not all

Nice update FMP I like the sprites even though I had already saw them, anyway can't wait for the big update.

[Exiled~Shadow]

oww.... once again i cant see the pictures.............

[h POKE]

This is certainly wonderful. I liked a lot of the original forms before, but I have to say that Velaseptor stands out now as a cut below some of the newer sprites. Scheleon looks great.

[Jesse[TB Pro]]

Ahahaha, I won the contest, yays! Seriously though, I can't wait to play the game, it looks amazing!

[Exiled~Shadow]

Yay i can see, they look so awesome! congratz, i love the fire and water starters and am starting to like the grass!

[Yuoaman]

I think the water starter is the most original, it is reminiscent of Lapras, but has its own charm which draws the eye... Great job.

[Jesse[TB Pro]]

Hey dude, I was just wondering why you posted that update twice? :P Anyway, they really do look great, especially Scheleon. It has heaps of originality and detail.

[Pika Storm]

before we get any closer to the one month closing rule, about how many fakemon are there going to be?

[Rabbit]

Your storyline is rather explicitly ripped fom the Matrix. Do you mean it to be a homage?

[<~F.M.P~>]

before we get any closer to the one month closing rule, about how many fakemon are there going to be?

One month closing rule? And were still debating on that, so far there have been a total of 65 fakemon made we may do a whole set if 150 or keep it small an add in nintendos pokemon for those that dislike a bunch if fakemon. That's a good question well have to think about that, thank you :)

Your storyline is rather explicitly ripped fom the Matrix. Do you mean it to be a homage?

Is it? Hmm I didn't know that... No I'm not trying to copy an already made storyline I just thought something different from a normal pokemon storyline would be fun, and no it's not a homage...some of the story stands for something more natural. ;)

[Disturbed]

Well, FMP, I'm surprised you haven't asked for help yet xD
Well, I'd like to see more updates soon, Ty. Best of luck!

Okay I've been off the scene for quite a bit lately. I bet some of you are wondering why? Well it's mostly due to my report card, no, no It isn't bad it's actually the best one I've had thus far. I've also been working on new Ideas for Carbon and fixing my computer up with software and files from my crashed one, but now my report out, my computers almost complete and my spring break is today...In laymens terms, I'm Free!

Being that I'm never satisfied with what I make so I'm forever making new things...I finally think I've made new Battle graphics I'm satisfied with. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Explanation of Pics:
Pic 1: The only thing thats changed here is the background...Just a normal grass battle here.
Pic 2: Swirly...Had to give some color to the battle box Yellow and Blue
Pic 3: A sand battle...With a Hippodawn? Why?
Pic 4: I'm pretty sure a Parmal couldn't take on a Sharpedo nor a Hippodawn especially in a watter battle...The scenery in the back gives the effect that your really off to sea. I'll probably be working on this one a bit more.
Pic 5: Who's that pokemon?! Ha ha I don't exactly know when this background comes into play, but It's there ^^

Are you wondering why I connected the player and enemies battle stages together? Me too...Ha ha No I'm just kidding...I did it because I thought I'd give the battle the effect that they were fighting on a real battle field...At least I hope that's what It looks like.

Yes New Fakemon Finally...I thought I'd just show a few for now though. I like how they turned out.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Parmal-1.png

Parmal - This pokemon is just as common as a pidgey...You'll find this one at the beggining of the game along side Cripet and A few others.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Maramoo.png

Maramoo - A not so common pokemon It can only be found around route 30, Carselvite Town and Professor Dobbles Farm.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Solidotfamily.png

Solidot, Tulpia - These two come from the same family, but which ones Solidot and which ones Tulpia? Solidot is the pre evoloution of Sunkern. The same rules apply for it to evolve into Sunflora find the sun stone, for Tulpia however It's a little different...You have to train it to a certain level then evolve it using a gravelroot...Sound like to much work? Don't worry it's well worth it in the end.

Carbon has much more to offer this time around...This is just a bit of the story...It's written in a confusing way to keep you guessing.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/Carboncontinued.png

During the time the three spent together...They improved upon the designs of the cycle...Things however went wrong in the end and the two left...A fight between three sides began...you are now stuck in the middle...Whoever thought things would come to this? It's now up to you to stop the two sides and set things right...Trouble will ensue, but without you...It may all just be for nothing...The fourth is imperfect...It's corrupted...What they have done will change the world.

Yep The Poke wrist...Do you remember when I showed you all that little poke wrist design I made an update or two ago? Well It just seemed to simple...It didn't take up enough of the screen so I improved it a bit.

We have two easter egg events complete...The Easter eggs were put in the game to make it a bit more fun...They'll add an extra level of challenge as well as fun to the game.

The SOLIDOT Easter Egg

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/capture003.png

Were you wondering how you could get a solidot? Probably not, but I'm gonna tell you anyway! Solidot isn't to far off...You can get a Solidot after you gain your second Gym Card...The Event is a little red pot that contains a plant, over time the plant grows and finally a little sprout appears...after you click on it you begin a battle with a lttle seed poekmon known as Solidot...It's only a level 5 so you'll have no trouble catching it.

The PYAROO Event

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/capture005-1.png

Well I did say Pyaroo would stay in the game didn't I? Well It's going to be as an easter Egg event...Pyaroo has been stolen from a nearby Research building and is being kept by a gang of little holligans( Yes I said Holligans) Your job is to retrieve it and bring it back to the research building...You may just be rewarded in the end.

Say Hello to the Malva League. Whats a Malva league? You mean you Don't know?! Alright I'll explain so listen up...the Malva league(below)

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/1-1-3.jpg

Consists of a total of 9 Gyms and The Core 5. Each gym will be hidden between Routes and towns or cities, but don't worry you'll notice something that will make the gym evident. The battles are no longer carried out inside a building however, each gym is designed with tiles corresponding to the leaders element. For example, the pictures above show The first gym you'll be traveling to which is the grass gym. They will each have a different look and puzzle you have to figure out in order to get to the leader.

Hint: After Beating a Malva league Gym leader once, why not do it again? You might just get something for it ;)

Wow this is amazing, great, all is cool kepp it up on that game,

[Pika Storm]

whoa, huge update, but the dude next to the professor that is shaded out looks like a mideval court jester, just saying...

[ryushin5]

Awesome update FMP nice, it's amazing dude keep it up. :D

[Neo-Dragon]

What the hell? Where is the post I made?
(Server error maybe?)

Anyways, I'll say it agian.

I like the update, pretty big. I'm not going to go into detail that I did on my first post that I had written, but here are some random comments.

I'm not a fan of the battle platforms stretching, but you should keep em to make your screens stand out (since everyone is using those mad backgrounds now).

What's up with the menu over the pokewrist? Forget to get rid of it?

The fakemon looks nice.

All of the gym screenshots look sweet.


Well thats a summary of what I wrote.
Good update again.

[Vampire://Krimm]

Hmm, everything looks very good, the game has definitely improved since the beginning.

I watched the video, and I must say, the eventing looks very good quality wise, HOWEVER a side tip of mine is to make sure there are alternates evented in case the player doesn't do what you intend for them to. Such as, if you lose to the Pokemon in the Dream, or you chose to try and go different places other than the lab in the beginning.

All in all, everything looks great~ keep it up <3

Thanks for the creative crit Neo. Yeah I kinda did forget to get rid of it Ha!
Yeah the battle backgrounds are beggining to get a bit over used but they do give the game a nice touch and thank you ;)

Glad the fakemon look decent.

And thank you for Gym screen compliment.

[Saidai No Soba-Ya]

Nice update
cool gym idea *cough* *cough*

[Mista T]

Wow, you weren't kidding when you said it was to be a big update! I love the look of the first gym, it has a certain aura of mystery shrouding its entirety. The new start menu is very clean and practical in appearance, and the Solidot easter egg is creative at the least. I also love the swirly!

Now for some questions:
How can a Pokemon be weaker than Sunkern and still have a use in battle?
What is Tulpia based on? A tulip?
You say there is a trilateral conflict in the story, and you are caught within the center of the dispute. However, it says you must stop only two of these sides . Is this because you form an alliance with one of the groups?

Now some crit:
Not much, I'm just not a big fan of the battle field. Perhaps you could adjust the left boundary where it connects to the area that encircles your current Pokemon? It appears to be off.

And now it is time for some encouragement:
Great job, love how the complexity appears to be simplicity, and I bid you fair fortune on your road to success!

[O.G. Duke]

Nice update! Yeah, it was huge!
Good job! Everything look nice! Keep it up.

[mulch_ar]

Whoa, very cool update!! But a pre evo of Sunkern? I think Sunkern is small enough, just my oppinion. Good Luck with your game! ^^

What is Tulpia based on? A tulip?
You say there is a trilateral conflict in the story, and you are caught within the center of the dispute. However, it says you must stop only two of these sides . Is this because you form an alliance with one of the groups?

Now some crit:
Not much, I'm just not a big fan of the battle field. Perhaps you could adjust the left boundary where it connects to the area that encircles your current Pokemon? It appears to be off.

And now it is time for some encouragement:
Great job, love how the complexity appears to be simplicity, and I bid you fair fortune on your road to success!

No Tulpia wasn't based off a tulip...more of a dandelion concept. To answer your question about Solidot...Keep in mind that when you hatch a poke egg, the pokemon that's been hatched out of the egg is a level 5. Solidot basically follows that idea. Sunkerns were found in the park in Gold/Silver/and Crystal I believe at a level of 8 or higher...I'm not to sure, so although it may be weaker...It could still possibly play roles in battles...Like Togepi for example. Hope that made since ;)

For the battlefield, the Base on which the player stands is the same size as the one on which the enemy stands...Normally it's bigger and instead I've just made it smaller...That may be why it seems off.

And finally, thank you for the encouragement. I'll make sure the game stands up to par when the Demo is released ;P

Nice update! Yeah, it was huge!
Good job! Everything look nice! Keep it up.

Thank you very much Omega I'm glad to hear from you again :P

Whoa, very cool update!! But a pre evo of Sunkern? I think Sunkern is small enough, just my oppinion. Good Luck with your game! ^^

Ha ha Yes it is but I just thought a pre evo would be fun too! and Thank you ;)

Note: Next update will go furthur into the Gym battles showing a video of the first gym and how it's played, as well as a few new events, The trainers bag(hopefully) and New fakemon again ;)

[~JV~]

Really nice update, probably the best on this game so far xD (probably because of the video). Also is that a four stage pokémon (the sunkern one) =p?

[blueguy]

That's a lot of stuff!

Here's what I liked... The dream sequence was really cool, and the Gym looks really nice too. I find the new additions to the Sunflora family really, really confusing and I still don't know how they work. Here's what I didn't like... The battle platforms stretching across. It just doesn't look very good. Oh, and also, you should change the text of the Pokémon's names in their battle bar, because the current color does not fit with your black background.

Overall, a really nice update.

Thank you JV ;) For the sunkern question, no not exactly. Solidot evolves into sunkern and sunkern can either evolve into a sunflora or Tulpia depending upon the players choice. For a sunflora, the player simply has to find the sun stone and for Tulpia instead of a Sunflora, the player must raise sunkern to a certain level then evolve it using the gravelroot.

Glad to hear from you :P

Thank you blueguy. The solidot question was just answered above so I hope it makes since. The elongated battle stages seemed like a decent idea. I'll either keep the idea or try to come up with a better idea. Also you make a good point about the name color I'll change it ;) nice fakemon in your sig by the way.

[Hall Of Famer]

The update looks great! I like the new screenies and they look gorgeous!

While I was doing research on my youtube videos, I found that one of my videos on my WSSDK (World Settings SDK) had been embedded in page 9 of this thread. I'm curious as to why it may have been embedded and removed, or, if not, why Youtube told me it was? Incidentally, nice fakemon. They aren't exactly the best, but you don't see those games any more, due to having been cancelled or dropped. (I really wish some of them would come back) In other words, I'm still holding your fakemon to standards that no longer exist. Also, interesting concept regarding the gyms.

Edit: Ahh. I see. My video was linked to in the related videos section at the end of your video in your update. Also, I have a few more comments on the project. First off, why are you using the default attacks for Poccil's kit? Does everyone still use those? I'm sure someone must have gotten around to ripping the attacks from D/P by now. I could easily rip them from the GBA games. (In fact, the only reason I haven't done it is because it takes too long to do, and I don't have the time at this point) Also, why are you using what amounts to a slightly edited version of the intro from the official games. And don't bring up the don't fix what ain't broke argument, they are broken, and yours is even worse. Can you imagine your mom forgetting your name, much less whether you were a boy or a girl? And before you get in a huff about my blunt comments, think on this: I prefer to tell the truth, instead of only saying nice things. If you take my advice, your game may get better. If you ignore me, then power to you, I was only trying to help.

First off thank you for the compliments regaurding the fakemon and the gym style. It's not that standards have declined, different people just have different ideas in terms of fakemon. The fakemon In Those games that died may have indeed been much better than mine, but I'm not them so my idea won't be the same as theirs.

To answer your question of battle attacks. I just haven't gotten to that yet. Carbon will feature all nintendo's moves and battle effects as well as quite a few custom attacks.

If it ain't broke argument? Ha ha ha! I wouldn't even try using that excuse for anything. This version of carbon has only been in the works for about 3 months or less... I usually reffer to this version as NEw Carbon. that intro will be replaced by an better one in the future it's just there for now to keep the game moving along, same with poccils battle effects. It'll all be replaced later on. Now your mom forgetting your name? That's definitly probable. The boy or girl issue however, does seem unlikely but as I said before it'll be replaced later on. Don't worry I take no offence in what youve said, I understand where your coming from with it all and I appreciate it.

[StaraptorX]

ok ill start with Parmal.


Parmal:

the critisizem:
i dont exactly think the colors should go together like that. so im gonna call it a color clash, it looks like one of santas little helpers turned into a bird. and theres another thing, the wings look a little like hands to me, but thats about it.

the praise:
the overall sprite work and clean up is done very well like most of your sprites. this is an improvement on petweet or its original sprite. and the ribbon, feather, ect on its head is placed on the sprite perfectly if you know what i mean.

the rating:
8/10

Maramoo:

the critisizem:
not much really, just that the outlines look a little on the bright side. and the eyes look like they are looking away from the opponet pokemon.

the praise:
the design, sprite, choice of color, detail, and name all perfectly mesh together. this is definitly something i want to catch!

the rating:
10/10


Solidot:

the critisizem:
omg it looks to much like sunkern, i cant say i looks much different. its got the stripes removed, mouth removed, spikes removed, shrank, and repositioned but thats about it.

the praise:
well the sprite work is good.

the rating:
5/10

my advice: remove a leaf and the stem so just the leaf is there.
or:maybe make it more seed looking like make it a light brown and transform it into a seed shape.

Tulpia

the critisizem:
i dont really like the way its leaned to the side like that, and it should probbly be posed.

the praise:
as you can see its very well done, sorta like the magikarp evo tree. something crappy turns into something super powerful ( except sunkern out moves magikarp any day lol )
the shading is great and well... thats about it ( i got to start puting in reasons why i like them ).

the rating ( duh duh duh... ) :
10/10



well thats my opinion. srry it took so long

Thank you Staraptor X. I've been meaning to switch out parmals colors for something a bit more fitting and unsaturated. I'll find the time eventually. I also agree with a few ideas of yours for solidot, perhaps I'll remake it. :)

[StaraptorX]

your welcome! im thinking of becoming a sprite critic. i just watched the video and this looks like a game i would want to play without a shadow of a doubt! i like velgrus custom cry to, but the unknow pokemon has giratinas cry.

100 official post!! WOOTLY!

[= GPR =]

I've been on board with this from the start, and i have to say, i am truly proud of where this is going. Granted, alot has changed since we first started, but alot of the core ideas are still here, and this is just...just...im still thinking of the word...

you get, i'm at a loss for words it's so good. I LUV it fmp...flood.

Call on me if you need some help on anything... i'm only a pm away...

[StaraptorX]

Are you going to have a contest soon? I particully like the design contests the best.

[PokemonOI]

yo Flood any new updates? It's been a while? I cant remember the last update....Anyway I really just wanna see what your scripting has gotten you.

Thank you I'm glad you liked it although a bit of it will be subject to change in the demo. I'm working on velgrus's cry as well as the other fakemon, the mystery pokemons' cry is also almost finished I just have to find a tone that goes with the look of the fakemon. I appreciate your comment by the way thankyou ;)

Congatulations on your 100th post by the way. Seems you're here to stay LOL.

Thank you very much for your sense of dedication to this project GP I'm glad you like where it's going ;)

I actually do have 2 new contests to announce but one won't be until the demo release however but the other one will be in the next update after this one I'm currently planning.

yo Flood any new updates? It's been a while? I cant remember the last update....Anyway I really just wanna see what your scripting has gotten you.

I'm currently working on a battle system similar to pearl diamond and platinum as well as the new bag script and a few other scripts so the next update is a bit far off, but I promise the update won't dissapoint.

Next update: the next update will feature a new and much improved battle design, new tiles, fakemon, the reveal of the first gym battle as well as the first gym card, new events, characters, features and more.

[PokemonOI]

All cool man I cant wait to see. Especially since your working on a system "LIKE" D/P. I cant wait to see what new creative twists of your own that you put on it.

[cdrew]

i like the battle graphics. they're really unique.

[~Äkumà~]

Looks amazing any idea when the demo or game should be released??

jw?

There's a probable demo June 12...I'll keep everyone posted in May to see if it's a strong possibility. Thank you by the way.

[Gir?]

A bit of constructive criticism. The head on the evolution of Velgrus seems to big. I'm not sure if someone told you that yet but it sticks out to me.

[Atomic Reactor]

Wow, I can;t believe i havnt posted on here yet :O
Everything looks really good. I would suggest changing in battle text colors, it blends with the battle box to much. But you already know this.
Everything else looks real good. Keep up the good work :3

Really? Seems fine to me, but that may because I was the one who designed it, no matter It's having another pose change later on in the future. Thank you though.

Thank you AR and yes I entend to change the color of the text as well as quite a few other things. Thank you and I will.

Note: The next update is almost finished and may be up within the next two days or so.

[Atomic Reactor]

You mean the update for april 13th?

[<~F.M.P~>]

You mean the update for april 13th?

lol Yeah, sorry I should have stated that a bit more clearly. Yes The update I had planned for April 13th may be up much sooner than I expected.

[Atomic Reactor]

As much as anyone loves updates, I think you should post pone it till the said Date.
And just give like, one screen in the next couple days.
To build up our anticipation :P

Alright well If that's the case, Here's an updated picture of what Carbon's been up to.

http://i510.photobucket.com/albums/s341/mytree2003/comingsoon.png

I'll give a cookie to the first person who can tell me who that guy with the white hair is. XD


Most of what I promised for the update is in the one picture...minus many new tiles, characters, and events...but It's just the general gist of what to expect...Comments on the new tiles would be appreciated.

You're closer. ;)

Isn't that the Professor Assistant?

Bingo! Yes It's the Professors assistant, but OI was also correct. He's one of your rivals.

Thank you for guessing guys. I'd send you the cookie link, but I'm afraid it may go stale by the time it reaches your doorstep...So I'll send you an E-cookie later. ;)

Here's yet another Teaser Screen.

[StaraptorX]

[Pika Storm]

I don't know when you all will see it come out of the shadows, but you all will like it ;)
