:::: Pokemon Next Generation::::
::being made with Game Maker

=======================
The Team of NextGen
=======================
I owe it all to the team of Pokemon Nextgen. all I am is but a simple director and a mapper. Heres what we all do!
Kamon - Director/Mapper
Elusive Mew - Custom Building Artist/ Pokemon Spriter
Lich - Random
Serebii - Coding. NO, not THE Serebii
Cheez Puf - Environment Tilest/Tiler
Music17 - Random Jobs

=======================
Introduction to the Future
=======================
A lot of you may have heard of us already, but now its time to learn about us again!! NextGen is a game crew that constantly works on Pokemon Fangames to keep Fans happy! Though this is our first major project, it is personally my favorite. NextGen offers a brand new region to explore, the vast lands of Iouso, a beautiful green lush Region that includes an Icy Northern Mainland, and some frigid Mountains! Yes people, we do have Penguin Pokemon and Polar Bears XD. You can engage in the expansive Iouso Region to stop the evil Team Nebula and become the Pokemon Champion, and eventually make your way to the tropical Bastion Isles!

=============
The Story
=============
Ah, a wonderful day in Offia Town, you've lived there your whole life, with nothing new, nothing different, except for a traveling dad that ventured off on business trips to places like Sinnoh and Hoenn. Ahh, how you wish you could be him.......

Its your 13th Birthday! Says your mom, waking you up. As soon as its almost time to celebrate, you wonder where your long time best friend is. Your Mother reminds you that he/she's getting their first Pokemon at the lab of Professor Elliwood. You rush over there to wish them good luck until the Professor sees something in you..something big, grand, something great! He persuades you into picking a Pokemon, and being nice, your friend lets you choose first. Your not sure at first, but you accept, and head back home..Thats where your dad awaits.... You'll have to play to find out ;)

=====================
Features of Nextgen
=====================
-Choose from a new Hero/Heroine!
-Explore the Vast Region of Iouso!
-Catch over to 150 NEW Pokemon! (These arent your average Fangame Pokemon!!)
-A new PokePDA, featuring Weather forecast, Location Setter, Trainer Eyes, and more!
-Stop the Evil Team Nebula before they destroy the balance of the world!

=====================
The Region of Iouso
=====================

Thought we were the type of People to base our Regions off of real places in Japan, like the REAL games? Well, we still did!! Turn the Map 90 degrees to the Left, and wholla! You've got Shikoku, Japan ^^
-Iouso features the average 8 badge collecting System
-Offers a wide variety of new types of Pokemon from Polar Bears to Flamingos!
-Explore new environments and enjoy the Industrialized Cities!

==================
What? NEW POKEMON!
==================
Calm Down! Yes, unlike most Fangames, we do have new pokemon, and we have currently 88 to prove it. Though Hold up! Were like Nintendo, we dont show ANYTHING, we slowly feed you information, some lies, some true, be on the look out! Oh, and to keep you drooling, heres our sneak peak on some new Pokemon!

Map Previews!!!!
================================
Well, we got some MAJOR downfalls from people saying our Screenshot areas looked horrible, now here I will keep small map previews that I will update every so often. Please note that these are not real areas, simply tests with new tiles

I love the custom pokemon, they look great! Storyline looks interesting too

One thing though...the trainer's sprite looks really weird. The hat seems to drag the rest of the picture down, so I'd change his hat if i were you, but its just a suggestion

I like the graphics. Looks really nice. I want to hear more of the story :P - just kidding.
Anyways, I look foward to this game and hope it works out for you.

Looks and sounds great. Graphics are very nice although the hero looks a little out of place. I also like your new Pokemon. Anyway I can't wait to see and hear more.

lol, the Hero is off becuase the program we use for the test areas doesnt like Tiles. No Worries, Game Maker does imput the correct tile motions xD We've been around for awhile, though some hibernation has recently happening, thus a lot of our team is somewhat inactive.

Look Forward to a possibl City Screenshot of the 3rd City. Sooner or later I might make a Chart to see which Cities you go to first. Oh, and a few more new pokemon will do...Go Flamingos lol

Damn that looks really nice.. This is the first game that I've seen to use the D/P graphics really well.. *Hides from Neo-Dragon.* Looks really good, I really can't say anything bad about it O.o keep it up.

Lol Dash, I've to quote you...

Y'know this is the first time I've seen the D/P sprites used without looking really ugly.. Something I have to say though is don't blend 3rd gen sprites and 4th gen sprites.. They just.. Don't go together y'know?


Since we're in the subject, I don't really understand why people try to make games with D/P graphics ripped from screenshots... I mean, quality may even be good if you recolor or something... but there's just a few tiles, which means you would have to create your own. And I hope you're good on spriting, because that would take real effort.

:D

Hope you can do it ^^

But i dislike the D/P grass tiles

Now, now, theres NO Ripping from D/P AT ALL. We use custom everything, due to Nintendo making their statement about Fangames. And For spriting, LOL, we have spriters everywhere. We've got 2 EXCELLENT Pokemon Spriters, and 1 awsome Building Spriter, which they turn out, much like whats in the screenshots. Though some of our stuff may resemble D/P, its not ripped. Plus our Graphics are a bit of our own style, since the only D/P in their are the Color Pallete, Building Mass, and the Chibified Characters

It looks great!

No, except for the Bastion Isles, south of Iouso


EDIT: Oh, and time for a new Pokemon

Meh, When their ripped, the horrible, but I guess they look alright on the DS. Except the tilting of the houses. Stupid 2.5d. lol


@Nekro Boi:: Lol, thanks, though it might be awhile before Beta Comes out, we still have to gain a few more building spriters to help Elusive Mew

Update:::

Well, we've been getting some people asking if those screenshots are what the game would look like. NO, those were lazily put together maps. I have posted Mini-Map Previews, these are areas tested with the new tiles. Please note that these once again are not real areas in the game. Credits for the Rocks, Cave Entrance, and Cave Dirt to Project Platinum.

January 21st, 2007, 10:44 AM
From what I see of the new tiles they look promising. I can't wait to see some maps that have had some real work/detail etc put into them, its going to look awesome.

Anyway I hope to see this go a long way, all they way in fact.

Good luck!

Sure, post some examples! We always need more staff members. And yes, pokemon may be spliced, but THEY HAVE TO LOOK COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.


And yes people, we are in dire need of new staff, most of them have disappeared.

XD its cool! The only thing that needs work is: Size. Its a bit small for the screen were using, unless its meant to be a small Pokemon. Otherwise, it looks quite cool ^^. Give me some item examples as well, we almost have 0 item sprites.

Keep bringing it in, everyone! We still need more staff! They've all disappeared!
