I'm not going to reveal the sprites for the legendaries yet; there is two, and one won't be revealed at all; you'll have to play the game.

Wow Trace!
You've outdone yourself with this game i love it!
The tiles seem nice, and the sprite of the heroine is great! The Overworld looks weird to me though :/

Heh thanks.
The overworld...what about it seems weird to you? I kinda know what you mean, but I need your feedback in order to fix it. ^_^

Good game, seems interesting and it has great tiles so far. Im guessing the story will include the 2 new pokemon along with others with other legendaries. Will the story have giritina because it is from another dimension? btw, one of my future game's name is taken now... you beat me to it...

Aw, sorry about the name. People kept taking my names too :P

It'll have every legendary (although most won't play a part in the story), but yes, Giratina will have a role.

Thanks.

What's a pokeyap (last picture in the text)? Anyway, I think you should change the starters to something like:
lvl. 5 geodude- tackle, defense curl, mud sport
lvl. 5 abra- teleport, fire punch, thunder punch, ice punch (give it the punches because it doesn't learn any new moves till it evolves, and it wouldn't be a total advantage of having the punches because abra focuses on sp. atk
lvl. 5 machop- low kick, leer

just an example because you want the starters to have something in common (geodude, abra, and machop all level up to the last stage through linking if you add it to the game).

What the ****?!
Dude, I've already planned to use this name a while ago.. Ever try Googling?

EDIT: NVM, it isnt on Google o_O
Search through My threads.. I moved to Game Making, still planning on using this name, in which I've plan to use for 7 months now >.>

EDIT 2: As you can see in my sig, "Pokemon Crimson Version" has been in my sig forever...

@TeddiursaFan: It's like a cellphone, it's so the player can recieve calls from important characters in the game; you can make calls using Phone + Phone Card in PokéZones. (I will explain what a PokéZone is in a later update.)

@Xray:
I googled it, didn't come up. I even searched the forums; it was in the Emulation section, therefore, it was not used as a fangame, so I used it. I've never even talked to you before; so why would I notice it in your signature?

It is really not that big of a deal. Just let it go. You may have been planning on using it but Trace beat you to the thread. Move on and find a new name. (Reserves Pokemon Onyx).

No stealing, thats mine. xD

On topic, the game looks fantastic Trace. If there is anything that I can help you with just give me a PM. I can recolor and revamp nicely and I am a fairly good mapper.

Keep up the good work.

Why are you arguing over such a pointless issue? Is there something wrong with having two Crimson versions? It's not the name that matters, it's the contents of the game. I really don't see why you can't both name your games Crimson...

@Gyrados: Hmm... I'm just a bit worried that the post's size will be a bit bloated.

@Xray: The only person I talk to from your list is megiddo, and not very much at that. If you have further discussion about the name, please send me a PM, do not post in my thread about it.
And honestly, I can agree with Wichu. If you don't mind me having the name, I don't see why there can't be two.

-Anyways
I should have some userbars and an update ready at some point; so stay tuned.

Sounds interesting, I'll have to check on this thread pretty often.

You screen shots look cool. The 3rd gen graphics are "meh" to me. They look good, but I prefer 4th gen grahpics. Your new pokemon looks and sounds cool. It doesn't "look" like a fire type, but that's actually kinda nice --to have a fire type that doesn't have flames on it somewhere.

All in all, keep up the good work!!

@CollosalPokemon: Thank you very much! Actually, we had to have a tileset change. (You'll see in a later update why.)

@D.aisuke: What 4G graphics are you referring to? Like, in-battle sprites? Overworlds? Tiles?
Kimodus (to me anyways) looks like a steel type, (first impression wouldn't strike me as a dragon type for some reason), so I would use fire type. Fire type would hardly scratch dragon or fire type, thus giving Kimodus a small advantage.

@Curt200718: Thanks. I plan for the first demo to go up to two or three gyms.

~Thanks for the feedback, guys. I appreciate it. :D

Wow amazing! I can see you put a lot of effort towards this update! I love to see that you're using the platinum trees, they look great! The pokezone building is too small to hold both a mart and a Pokecenter though. The white rock idea is ok. Here's my guess: 00254.

Well, the heroes aren't the main focus of the game, so we decided for simplicity.
Looks like we got our goal.

Good luck mate.

You must be blind and incapable of reading. First, custom sprites in the pc, for the character, a dark tone to many of the screenshots. Second, did you even read the story. It's not from pokemon at all, I would call that originality. Lastly, ever heard of constructive criticism, apparently not. You can post all day about how much you don't like the game, but calling it crap is immature. If you don't like it then post exactly what you don't like about it and maybe some suggestions. Don't expect any of your ideas to be taken into mind because this isn't your game and if you think you can do better than this, then why don't you make your own game.

Personally, I feel this game has plenty of originality about it. Its very well mapped out and I like the battle screenshot that was shown. Keep up the great work Trace and ignore Lmayonaise, you have the beginnings of a great game here.

The prologues are pretty good, and the white rock event doesn't seem like the best idea. Actually, it's too early to say if it's good or not because not much have been revealed besides the parts where guessing is included . Does the event relate to the legendary in the event in ways of past or something like that? Was just wondering. Maybe the number has to do with the legendary's past like the day something happened. Maybe the the legendary was sealed in a room of the cave and you need to know the day it happened and the item to release it (by capturing it). These are just guesses of what happened. Hmmm... I'm surprised no one guessed 12345.

You are half correct; it's about a legendary, but the numbers aren't that specific to the legendary, but to something else.
12345? Cmon, man. It's not that easy. :P
