Pokemon The Lost World

Application Form



We people of the Pokemon The Lost World Team are a family. We strive to reach or goal, and the hope of hundreds of Pokemon fans. Our goal is to piece together the scattered world of Pokemon into one world, where there are almost no boundaries, and not only are we to connect the world of Pokemon, but to connect the players as well. With online capability being possible, we will strive to reach it. The Towns are big, the cities are huge, and the routes are perilous. But we are staying true to the franchise. With the exception of new regional and gender variations there are no fake Pokemon. While there will be many secrets in the game that may not be known or true to the Pokemon World, there are some secrets that only few know about and you must overcome life risking obstacles to discover them. I hope as the project leader that we complete this daunting task and bring together the world of Pokemon


I hope that your contribution of skill, determination and spirit can help us accomplish this task,

Open Positions


Enterior Designers -15 positions open
People who can alter already made furniture, and produce new kinds of furniture. That includes walls, chairs, tables, plants, windows, and anything else that would be indoors. This furniture will be able to be bought at furniture stores across the Pokemon World, and there are goin to be approximately 15 different companies.

Entertior Decoraters - 15 positions open
People who can place, and design building layouts with great design. This position requires the person to have sphere, and is a very tedious position. I will direct you to chich buildings that need designing, and input to what I want the house or building to look like.

Concept Mappers - 7 positions open
This is a very special job, which the person(s) will be working directly along side me. You and I will be drawing up concept maps for cities, towns and routes, that will incorperate the layouts from the anime and the games. People who have scanners may find this job much easier to portray thier ideas, but it is not required. I will be assigning people with cities, towns, routes, caves, or forests to make concepts for.

Tile Artists - 5 positions open
Again, people who fill this position will be working directly along side with me. I will only accept professional tile artists of the highest caliber. The tiles must be neatly designed, and must have that type of "Pokemon feel" about them. I will also look over each tile, and may suggest changes or revisions if nessesary. I also will be assigning city tile set projects that wil require tiles being made to look a certain way. But, this field, wont be very active, though you most likely will partake in the creation of cities and towns.

Overworld Spriters - 14 positions open
This position is very important. I need people who can make many different variations of overworld sprites of NPC's, and also custom overworld sprites. Because this game is using FR, and LG graphics, I need may types of people transformed into overworld sprite from D and P, and a few from R/S/E.

Character Sprite Alterator - 15 positions open
This also is very important. People who wish to fill this category must be able to create an emmense amount of color variations to in-battle trainer sprites. They need to be able to make skin color changes, and clothes color changes. We will be using DP style trainers. I will allow edits of R/S/E and FR/LG sprites, but I have a way of converting it into a DP style sprite. So, if you happen to edit a R/S/E or FR/LG sprite, send it to me to convert, and I will teach you how to convert sprites.

Custom Character Sprite Designer - 10 positions open
You must be able to design custom people from the anime, and maybe other things. People who wish to make custom trainers must be of the very best caliber, the custum character sprites must look authentic. We will be using DP style trainers. I will allow edits of R/S/E and FR/LG sprites, but I have a way of converting it into a DP style sprite. So, if you happen to edit a R/S/E or FR/LG sprite, send it to me to convert, and I will teach you how to convert sprites. I will be realsing a list to all that apply to this position, and you can choose who you wish to design. I will try my best to supply pictures of the charater as well.

Cloth Designers - 15 positions open
This position takes immense skill as a spriter. You must be able to design new clothes, and accessories to be sold at clothes stores for the playable character. The clothes must look neat and actually feel like they belong in the game. There are going to be approximately 15 different clothes companies, some will sell only male clothes, some may only sell female clothes, or some may sell to both.

Pokemon Variant Conceptors - filled
This is a very special field. People wishing to fill this position will create ideas for Pokemon Variants. Your ideas must be at least somewhat realistic, maybe adaptations due to climate change, or something else, etc... These changes must be minor e.g. color changes, or physical appearances. This is one of my favorite factors about this game, I expect great idealists for this field.

Do you have ideas that you'd like to see in Pokemon the Lost World? Ideas for maps, items, story, anything that you would like to see, PM me, or just post it here, doesn't matter to me. Also, I'm very confidential, so if you PM me about an idea that you don't want anybody to know about, just say the word and my lips are sealed.

The goal for the team of Pokemon The Lost World is to piece together the scattered world of Pokemon into one world, where there are almost no boundaries, and not only are we to connect the world of Pokemon, but to connect the players as well. With online capability being possible, we will strive to reach it. The Towns are big, the cities are huge, and the routes are perillous. But we are staying true to the franchise. With the exception of new regional and gender variations there are no fake Pokemon.

The story of Pokemon The Lost World is of a Pokemon master, you. Like everything else, this is also one of the combined aspects of the Pokemon World, so you will be challenged by your rivals, battling every gym leader, seeing every frontier, capturing every Pokemon, and defeating every evil organization… or will you be joining them!? But the main story, like all the other Pokemon games, is becoming a Pokemon Master. You start out in Pallet Town, but unlike Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Leaf Green, and Fire Red Version, you do not take the place of a main character. You are you, Ash and Gary are still there, meaning that they are your first rivals. But that’s not the end of it! Every time you enter a new region, your list of rivals increases, so beware of a lot of unexpected rival challenges along you journey.

You travel from town to city, defeating GYM Leaders along the way. And there are many side quests too, not to mention hundreds of Pokemon to catch.

Story:
You get a letter from your mother, who lives in Pallet Town, informing you that Prof. Oak is giving aspiring Pokemon trainers one of three choose able Pokemon to begin their Pokemon Trainer Adventure. She encourages you to come visit and stay at her house for the night and go see Prof. Oak in the morning.

You arrive at your mother’s house by taxi, and she runs out of the house excited to see you. As you are about to step inside, a neighbor happens to see you while walking by and happily welcomes you back to Pallet Town. After the conversation, the neighbor then leaves for home, and you and your mother step inside. As you do, a commercial for Prof. Oak’s Pokemon Trainer Initiation comes on the TV. Your mother turns up the volume and tells you to pay attention.

“Attention all aspiring Pokemon trainers, tomorrow is the big day. Prof Oak will be holding a Pokemon Trainer Initiation at his laboratory in Pallet Town early tomorrow morning, so you better be ready and get their early before he runs out of Pokemon! There are three available Pokemon to chose from, Bulbasaur, the grass Pokemon, Charmander, the fire Pokemon, and Squirtle, the water Pokemon. So remember, get to bed early, and be ready for a long a hard day, goodnight, and good luck to you all.”

As your mother turns the TV volume back down, she starts to speak, but just as she is about to, the phone rings. She picks up the phone and says that it’s for you. You pick up the phone to discover that its Gary!

“Hey looser, I guess it’s true, you are back in town. Your not planning on coming to my grandpa’s lab tomorrow morning to get a Pokemon, are you? Well, it doesn’t matter; you probably don’t even know what the good kinds are! Ha, well either way, my grandpa’s giving me a special Pokemon that no one else can get! So I guess I’ll see you tomorrow, if you can handle it! Looser!”

You hang up the phone, irritated by Gary, and your mother tells you not to worry about it and that maybe you should get to bed. As you agree, you walk up the stairs and head for bed. You walk in your room to find everything neatly placed, organized and just how you remembered it, and you then go to bed.

Customizable Trainer
You trainer is customizable from head to toe. From male to female, to the color of your skin, you be who you want to be.

Night and Day
Night and Day make a welcomed back returned, meaning more opportunities to catch Pokemon, and certain events. Time shifts include: Morning, Day, Afternoon, Dusk, and Night.


Biodiversity
No longer will Pokemon just have visible gender differences, like in Diamond and Pearl. They will now have their own distinct traits that are similar to each of its kind, but overall are different. Pokemon will become more realistic than ever before because of the Biodiversity factor I have decided to incorporate. And so, enabling this, I have also decided that the Pokemon of the same species, but with different regional differences will each have slightly different stats. So, to put it simpler, while you might have a Yanma native to Johto, a Yanma native to the Orange Islands might be stronger, or weaker.

Biodiversity Differences
Gender Differences: Pokemon with physical differences between genders of the same species of Pokemon.
Regional Differences: Pokemon of the same species with physical differences from different regions.





Secret Bases/Homes
In Pokemon The Lost World, secret bases from Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, will not appear in this. But, there will be a replacement that I think will satisfy even the most fan game hating person. But, I’m not going to reveal it at this time, but don’t worry, its really, really cool!!!


The Starter Factor
Many have been wondering what happens when you get your starter Pokemon. When you start out, Prof. Oak gives you a choice between Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander. Then after you defeat the Indigo Plateau, you will venture to the Sevii and Orange Islands. But, after your journey threw the Orange Islands, you then go to Johto, but the Pokemon Level Cap will be set at 20. So, any Pokemon above level 20 that you bring to Johto will not obey you, and so on and so forth.

Level Cap Regions
Kanto, Sevii Islands, Orange Islands
Johto
Hoenn,Orre
Sinnoh, Fiore


Gym Leaders
So, do you think you know what every Gym leader’s Pokemon were? Well, not anymore! Now, every time you fight a Gym leader, they will have a randomized party of Pokemon out of a set stock of Pokemon. And to discover what Pokemon each Gym leader has, you must fight them all at least once. And the farther you get in your journey the more Pokemon gym leaders obtain. So, this feature will train not only the Pokemon, but also the trainer, to be ready for anything. Oh, and you’ll be happy to know that you will be able to re-battle Gym leaders.

Gym Leader Example
Leader: Brock
Known Pokemon: (this is just an example, so this may be changed)
Geodude
Geodude
Graveler
Onix
Zubat


Pokemon Centers
As you have seen, the Pokemon Centers have gotten an extreme house makeover. And seeing how they are more anime like, and online orientated, they will exhibit new and cool features.

Pokemon Center Features
· Pokemon Healing: The standard Pokemon Center feature, and required by all Pokemon Centers. Seriously, what would a Pokemon Center be without healing?
· Intensive Care: Probably on of the most realistic features in the Pokemon Center. If your Pokemon happen to faint during a battle, and when they are taken to a Pokemon Center, they will be taken into intensive care, and will take 1-5 minutes to heal! (that will teach you to take better care of your Pokemon)
· Operating Room: When any of your Pokemon are taken into intensive care, you be permitted to enter the waiting room, were you can look behind glass walls and watch Chanseys’ and Nurses take care of your injured Pokemon. (kinda cool huh)
· Lounge: Basically made for the online factor, the lounge is a place to relax and hang out, with or without friends.
· Visual Phones: Before you acquire the Poke’ Nav, you will have to use the Visual Phones to talk to online friends, or in-game trainers, or even contact Professors, and even your mom!

There are quite a few more features to the Pokemon Center, but I will hold back for now, so I guess you all can enjoy these for a while.



Customizable Trainer Card
Your Trainer Card, like you trainer, is very customizable. You will be able to choose your background color and much more. Not to mention how advanced it is compared to the other games trainer cards. But with four tabs, this is this the perfect trainer card.
Note: I saved these as JPEG's to prevent people from stealing custom work.

Battle Frontier
Battle Frontier makes a triumphant return, stay tuned for more information about this subject.


Online Capability
One of the most sought after aspects in a Pokemon RPG is to be online to explore, train, and battle with friends and foes. Pokemon The Lost World is almost a dream come true, and you will be able to start or join a Poke Group. But I have not actually decided how much people can be in one world at a time. I was thinking 30, but when I get more in depth with the online functions with this, I will get back to you on it.


Every Region
The world is your frontier in Pokemon The Lost World, from Kanto, to Sinnoh, all 8 regions are open (that includes the Sevii Islands). But be careful, with a world this big, it’s easy to get lost. Also, this map is outdated, and I’m working on a new one, which I hope to complete soon. So, don’t worry, the finished product will be much easier to understand.
Note: I saved this as a JPEG to prevent people from stealing custom work.

Pokemon Moves
Do think you know every Pokemon Move? Well not any more! I have made a huge list of new Pokemon Moves, each with their own unique traits. And also there will be at least 100 TM’s, and 12 HM’s. Depending on how much moves there will be in this game, I will decide a correct number for the amount of TM’s.

Also, Pokemon will now have a broader range of moves. By that I mean, Pokemon will be able to learn up to 8 moves. But, I have created a system that will act like maturity. So, that means, Pokemon will be able to learn more moves only by gaining levels.

Pokemon Move Pool Range
Pokemon that are Lv.1 – 69 can learn up to 4 moves
Pokemon that are Lv.71-89 can learn up to 6 moves
Pokemon that have reach Lv.90 can learn up to 8 moves (maximum)

Boundaries and Moving
I have decided to make this game a free-roam game, meaning that you will not move by tiles, instead you will be able to move freely, and that you will also be able to move diagonally!!!

The Poke’Balls have all been completed, except for a select few. But otherwise, yes, there all complete.

Now don’t worry, I know that these are basic screen shots, but trust me, I have more to come. Also, every tileset that is not originally from the Pokemon games were made by me, 100% custom. But I also am only able to come online on the weekends, sometimes on weekdays, so expect updates on weekends, not weekdays.
Note: I saved these as JPEG's to prevent people from stealing custom work.

Nice tilesets :)

If this game takes off, it will be very popular. Keep up the good work.

Agreed. For promotional imagery depicting the creator's original work, it's perfectly fine to save in a not-incredibly-highly-compressed, small-size JPEG.

Resources that are meant to be shared should of course be shared via PNG format.

Sory to disapoint you, but this is gonna take a while...(meaning a long time) but at least I have the determination to actually do this.

Thanx, Snowpoint took me forever to do.

Check under features, and click the spoiler for Regional Transportation. But to answer your question, yes, you can travel by foot, fly, and surf. Whatever it takes to make it to your destination.

Yes, it is possible, amazing huh! but the online feature is gonna be the last thing I do, but as long as its possible

even if you don't do the online mode this is going to be the second best game i ever saw(sorry no-one can beat the megaman battle network series:D) and the best Fan-game so far

good luck hope everything will go alright and it will be a great succes

Note to new poster, it is not even got a beta.
Dont ask how to play it.
Well This game is on my Games list, Which is rare for me adding games to it.

If this goes good, I can imagine you will be very popular over Pokemon Fans.
I like the online aspect as its like online and offline right?
Will it be like friend codes or ip address? or will you have servers?

*note I love the map, I want it lol....*
Also i have memory of nothing i bearly remember which place is which on the big map lol...

Wow! Smart mapping. Snowpoint looks brilliant, really brilliant. It's one of those perfect scenes.

I worry that the game concept is possibly too large in scale - having so many regions and areas is a really difficult thing to pull off. I don't want to be a pessimist, it's just that not many games seen here reach completion, and this one being so huge is a risk. Good luck to you on that.

However, what I see here is really high quality and anything you produce will likely be an excellent game to play. Seriously, this thing has bags of potential :D

Keep up the good work!

August 17th, 2007, 07:10 PM
Fantastic! I really want this project to be completed. How about making two versions, with different game makers. Like RPG Maker and Sphere? We could make the one on RPG maker while you continue the one on Sphere. That way if one game dies the other will be there. How about it?


PS I love the City, Trainer Card and Map.

I THINK SUMMINK JUST HIT ME!

I think this might be a good story:
Teams Rocket, Galaxy, Neo Rocket, the Go-Rock Squad, Cipher, Snagem, Magma and Aqua form an inter-region alliance called The Nebula Group. The Pokemon League has advised nearly every trainer to stop it. The Nebula Group members will use every Legendary Pokemon for their own purposes, and each trainer has to intervene them. You are either a curious boy or girl, who plans on becoming the Pokemon Master. You travel through regions catching Pokemon, and you notice the Nebula Group doing their dirty work again. Will you be able to fight off the Pokemon League and catch all Pokemon, stopping the Nebula Group? Or will you be led by rebellious criminals who are part of the Nebula Group?

Play to find out!

Probably the league system will be like this:

Each champion of the main 4 region's E4 will become the E4 for the whole world so far.
I guess it could go like this:
Elite Four Champion Blue
Elite Four Champion Lance
Elite Four Champion Steven
Elite Four Champion Drake
and lastly... Elite Four Champion Cynthia!

And for the Gym Leaders...
I guess it could be like GS... or maybe the Leaders will be grouped by element.

Starters?
You will get one of each kind, except for Orre and Fiore. Or you can even get all starters! It could be:
Kanto Starter: Pikachu
Johto Starter: Mareep
Hoenn Starter: Electrike
Sinnoh Starter: Shinx

And then you'll manage to get all starters just like in Yellow.

So whaddya think of my ideas?

Wow, thanx for the awsome replies everyone. I can't tell you how much encuragement that gives me to continue to make this. Thanx, really, I can't even explain.

That is a pretty nice story line there jonspolder, but I already have a story line that is pretty in-depth, but still, thats a cool story line for a fan game.

Now, last but not least...

I'm sorry, I have not updated this in a while, but I have been work'n very hard, so don't worry. Like the first post says, I'm working on Pallet Town, which by the way is finished, but I can't show it to you until next weekend because there is no way for my computer to connect to the internet at this house (I have 2). So, again, I'm sorry, very sorry, but just wait a little longer, I'm sure that Pallet Town will amaze you just as much as Snowpoint City.

Also (I think I should've mentioned this earlier) I don't make beta's, but I have a select few people that will test certian things. So, don't ask if you can test something, I will personally contact you if I want you to test something.

Sorry, but there is only going to be 1 version. But you are able to have more than one file, so don't worry.

Sorry for any other questions I missed, I'm in a bit of a rush, since school started I have been really busy. Oh, and thanx again for all the inspiration.

I'll be on next weekend.

If you need help mapping just tell me what to do and i can try.
I'm sure theres no way to beat your mapping though.
(Also i would need to be told how to map, as in open what file etc..)
But im an okay mapper. I will see if i can find a old pic from a game i stopped doing.

I hope to god you are very good with Sphere and know what you are doing.

So how far in are you? Have you even started with the movement engine yet? Pokemon battles? Making the maps?

Because from what I an see all you have is ideas. And ideas are okay but what's AWESOME is when you can actually put these ideas into action!

Well, there not all ideas, I have worked on a great many things for this hack, but most things aren't ready to be shown. But that map of Snowpoint that I posted is actually in the game? I've walked in it, the music plays, but the only thing that I have not done is the aniamtion for the snow, but overall, besides the people, zones, and snow, its complete.

So, yes, I have started with the movement engine, (which is already in sphere), I just got to find out how to make some spritesets move faster than others.

I've obviously started on maps, I have all the icons for the items and some other stuff......!!!!!!!! HOLY, I can't believe I forgot to post that in the begging!! *Hitting self on head* Crap... Okay, expect that weekend update to be bigger becuase I just realized that I have some stuff that I completely forgot about.

Anyway...
... but I haven't made a battle system yet, but I'm going to make it as close as possible to the orriginal game as possible. I look at it in a way of; if a gameboy advance can do all that, so can sphere.

I think of myself very good with sphere, but I know I'm not the best, far from the best, especialy at scripting, but I still manage, and I learn something new about sphere every day.

Here's a link to my intro to sphere tutorial. It's all you need to get you started.
My Tutorial (http://legaia.sitesled.com/SphereGuide.html)

Edit: By the way, that tutorial has instructions on how to get sphere to work on your computer ;)

PS: Sorry for the little bit of spam Arcane but since you're a fellow sphere user I'm sure you don't mind.

Edit #2:
I just realized that you want help with making spritesets move faster or slower. Here ya go:
Movement speed
SetPersonSpeed(name, speed): sets the person's speed.
SetPersonSpeedXY(name, speed_x, speed_y): sets the person's x and y speed individually.
GetPersonSpeedX(name): gets a person's x speed.
GetPersonSpeedY(name): gets a person's y speed.

Oh, if you look closely, you can see the "R" for Team Rocket. Becuase its in jpeg format, the quality is lowered, and for I am sorry, but I do not want people stealing my work. Not to say that you will, but I know that there are many people out there who just steal things as if the worlds gonna end in
1 1/2 minutes. But yeah, its a Rocket Ball.

Note: Those are not all the balls, there are more, but I haven't finished them. Also, I have made a few new ones out of my own design. I hope you will like them when they come out.

Thank you very much. I think that it should be a rule that In a topic now that you put that warning. Anyone else who does that now will be shot by me.

But seirously, thank you.

I'm kinda making them by how you travel in the game, but with an exception to Snowpoint City. I had to make that city because I was soooo disapointed with Nintendo's first snow city, that I had to revise it. But yeah, kinda like how you travel kinda thing.....O____o (I'm speakning like a loony)
Thanx again man, for the motivation.

Can you guess what time it is!!!????

Change in plans!!!
I have very good news, and also very bad news. So I think I'll start with the bad news, just to get it over with.

Bad News: It seems my computer does not like me very much, and I think it's about ready to take a huge dump. So there may not be very much updates for a little while longer. But don't fear, all my work is backed up on my brothers computer, and I'm playing it safe. But hopefully, I will be able to reformat my computer this weekend...

Very Good News: I know how long this game is going to take, and I also know that people hate long waits, exspecially for something they want really bad, so guess what?? DEMO!!!!!!! Yep, as soon as my computer gets better, I'm going to try as hard as I can to get a demo out, but don't expect to do a lot of stuff, its just a demo.

But again, I am very sorry for the lack of updates for this and I hope that I can make my computer better very, very soon. Oh, and also, thanx for your suport and motivation, it helps a lot.

Note: If anyone would like to make banners or sigs for Pokemon The Lost World, just post it here, or PM me. I'm also trying to make some, but again, if anyone wants to make one or something, just PM me, or post it here.

Captain Arcane

wow, you have FANTASTIC tilesets. The gym is good but it doesn't really look challenging. Still I LOVE the tilesets.

Well first off, there are basically no limitations in sphere, for example, one tile can have as many colors as you want, and you can have as much and as many different kinds of tiles in any tileset.

Also, one reason why it doesn't look so challenging is because there are no trainer entities, plus, this is the first gym, its not supposed to be extremely challenging.

Well, I got a quite a bit on my plate right now. But the maps you see are basically finished. But right now I'm working on Kanto's Safari Zone, and I'm remaking Pallet Town.

This game isn't really catching much of my attention you should put some "in-game" screenshots instead of just maps.
Well, the most you can do in game right now is just walking around. And I already have a video of myself walking around in snowpoint city.

Now, I'm trying my best, and I know a lot about sphere, but I'm still learning a lot about it as well.

Most of the time scripting is the hardest part in any game, well not this game. As you can see, these maps are huge, realistic, and they take a whole lot of time, and effort, and on top of all that, I make my own tilesets, which quadruple's the ammount of time. So the most your gonna get is maps, trainer sprites, items, and interfaces for a while, and telling by all the great replies, I'd say people are loving it, and are very content as of now.

Wow, thanx for the compliments everyone. Oh, and here are the answers to your questions pokepal2007

Q:1. on the world map what is that place above johto
A: That would be Orre, and yep, that huge mountain is Mt. Battle

Q:2. on the world map is la rousse the brownish colour dot
A: Well, it may look brown, but its located right above Hoenn, right by Fortree City.

Q:3. on the world map where is orre
A: Orre is right above Johto

Q:4. on the world map where is fiore
A: Fiore is right above Kanto, which is right next to Orre.

Q:5. world map what is the place just below johto and just north east of kanto
A: The place right below Johto is Altomare, the island north east of Kanto is Summer Town from Fiore

Q:6. below islands 1-7 is that thwe orange islands
A: yes, including new island, the place where mewtwo was created.

Q:7. on the game will all the event pokemon be avalible?
A: Yes, every single one, with events that match the anime, and the game combined. For example. When you catch Moltres, Zapdose, and Articuno, there will be a special battle event where you will be fighting them all at the same time, like in Pokemon The Movie 2000.

Hey everyone, I got a question for ya.

For the past few months, I've been thinking of making more variations for the Pokemon. but not just gender, but with regional differences too. Heres an example.
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/6030/pokemonvariationsuo7.png
I really hope you like the idea, cause I would really love to see a lot of difference when you battle other trainers.

Also, more ideas for the variations that could be included:
- Some variations of pokemon could have different, but still similar stats than other variations.
- The same cry, but a little different sounding for some variations.

if you like this idea, and have other ideas that you would like to see with the variations, post it, and it could very likely become a part of the game.

OK, but first would you like to PM me some pokemon sprites that your using, and if you want to PM me a list to, otherwise I'll do colours I think fit. So I'll do ones like in the graph you demonstrated. 4 diffferent colours, also do you want me to change the entire body colour to make it cooler?

Edit, I whipped this up in 1 minute: Whadda ya think? http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa55/jonsploder/poke_1.jpg
The one on the left is the new one, the one on the right is the old one.

Well, I think that the blue contrasts the red to much, so much that it almost seems like a shiny. Also, um,..... I'm gonna leave the starters of each generation for last, just becuase they are so important.

Well, OK, but here are some other sheets I did in that minute also:

http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa55/jonsploder/blackanwhite.jpg
http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa55/jonsploder/blured.jpg
In this order they go:
Red
Shiney
Inverted
Highlighted
Black and White
And blured.

What do ya think? As I said, It was a minute, just an example.

Captain Arcane
November 10th, 2007, 01:18 AM
Um, I really don't understand the purpose of you doing that, even though its an example, but an example of what? By variations, you are going to have to actually edit things by pixel, I not going to except an inverted, or blurred images of pokemon. Also, I'm using Diamond and Pearl sprites, not GBA sprites.

Mabye this will help you. Don't see variations as just Pokemon with different colors. See variations as Pokemon that look the same but different at the same time, with mabye one, minor color change. But difference is not just color.

Hope that helps.

i could help you with the variations sprites i've done something like you said a little while ago
but actually i did it only one per region cause that was before diamond and pearl
so i didn't thought of the whole female and male thing

so if you want help with the variations sprites i can give you it

Captain Arcane
November 10th, 2007, 06:35 AM
Sure, that would be great. Just do some random pokemon sprites first, and then we'll go from there.

That is a great feature or idea to the game! Could you post some in-game screenshots? Like when the character is walking around or something?

actually, no,

See, its swirl is just reverserd in color. A variation of that could be the swirl going the oposite way, or mabey its nostrils will change. But remember, variations are not just color changes.
Kinda like this:

When I first saw the thread, I didn't think it would get very far due to the gigantic add-ons. But now that I look at it, it looks like it would get finished (eventually.) I might be able to help you on some of the variations and OW's, I'll start on Sableye as an example.

Captain Arcane
November 10th, 2007, 04:24 PM
Alright, cool, I'm really anxious to see that Sableye.

Orre's and Fiore's are the same as Hoenn's.
Explanation:
Kanto - Due to the lack of cave structures in Kanto, Sabeleye's eyes seem to close half way to get used to the light.
Orange Islands - Sabeleye once lived in the Crystal Onix Cave, where more ores grew on their bodies.
Johto - The ancient caves of the Unknown some how reversed the colors of Sableye's gems.
Sinnoh - While in Iron Mountain, the Steelix's broken pieces would mend to Sableye, causing extra horns.

Wow, that look's great! Like I said, any in-game screenshots?

Captain Arcane
November 10th, 2007, 05:18 PM
I like most of them, but I don't really like the kanto version. Its...i don't know, its like it doesn't fit. But heres another thing to take in.

When you do variations, you don't have to make a pokemon for every region, you could just make one variation, or two, or three, mabey even four. But this lesson is just that, you don't have to have a variation for evy region, or area.


Wow, that look's great! Like I said, any in-game screenshots?

Well, all those maps I posted are in game, unless you just want to see the character in the center of the screen, they are basically the same. But yeah, I will get some up.

November 10th, 2007, 06:12 PM
Actually, I think that you should worry about spriting later and do the engines like the CBS, leave the sprites to us to post up.


Edit: I included an image, check it and spot the difference.
Edit 2: I screwed the colours, but deleted the little bumps around the head. Again, I screwed it. I'll actually try for the next one.

The colour is too bright !
Try another edit instead of colour^^

These sableyes are FABULOUS! Are you using them? Cap. Arcane?

jonsploder
November 10th, 2007, 09:08 PM
well, this was a complete colour change and removed spikes, its still pretty bad though.

Edit: These are better.

OmegaGroudon
November 10th, 2007, 10:24 PM
I dont think you should remove the spikes because this is where a Chikoritta attack enemy. So maybe you can edit the leaves on it head^^
Just an advice.

Tell me what you all think?

Jake

I like it, I think it would fit as male. I always thought as Chikorita as a feminine Pokémon that doesn't like to get in trouble.

November 10th, 2007, 10:33 PM
damn jake, those look awesome
jonsploder, i dont' really like any of the pokemon that you've done. they don't really seem to be variations, just a simple effect done by photoshop. and like when you removed the spikes, that just looked weird. and the quality wasn't that good, and it just looked worse because of that

Captain Arcane
November 10th, 2007, 10:49 PM
PERFECT!!! OmegaGroudon, yes!
That is a great variation, and a perfect example of one, thats deffinetly going in. Awesome dude.

Johto, Hoenn, Orange Island, Fiore, and Orre are the same.

Captain Arcane
November 11th, 2007, 12:54 AM
Eh, I think the male losing its growths are a bit to much. Looks empty, I'd try just taking away some or all its bubbles on its surface, instead of its growths.

Okay, I have compiled all the new variations that are complete so far. And I edited some of the Sableyes because some of their points where a little sketchy, and I added a new feature to some of the female Sableyes. Enjoy

NICE! Execpt the onyx are not great. Otherwise its great. I have relised that I am a terrible spriter, lol. Don't expect anything great from me. Otherwise its great, but as I said- I think that you should do the CBS and CMS FIRST, then the pag and PC and the complex things that need doin'.

OmegaGroudon
November 11th, 2007, 03:44 AM
Ya, I agreed with jonsploder.
You should have a working CBS and CMS at first^^

Captain Arcane
November 11th, 2007, 03:49 AM
Well, the two Onyx variants are kinda special.

First:
Onyxes that inhabit the mountains of Pallet Town in the anime are said to be huge, and extremely strong, and even Bruno of the Elite Four trains there. So I made the Onyx a little more earthy like, intead of just rock that looks like it was carved out of Fred Flinstones house.

Second:
The Crystal Onyx is from an episode of the 2nd season of the anime in the orange islands. It lives in the crystal caves, and is thought to be a myth to the people of Sunburst Island.

So they both are anime related. But yeah, your opinion is your opinion.

Well, I'm not the best at scripting, but I'm still learning, Legaia hasn't been on in a while, but I'm not dependent on him. But like I said, I'm still learning many things about java script (which is what sphere runs off of). And yes, all those are very important, but so are other things. I"m just taking it one step at a time.

OmegaGroudon
November 11th, 2007, 03:55 AM
But you have to make sure you can script the CMS and CBS things.
If not, you will give up the project because of no CMS and CBS.

I can help in those variation.

Captain Arcane
November 11th, 2007, 04:10 AM
Yes, anyone knows that, but there is nothing wrong with getting some things done first, and I'm not even putting all my time into these varients. I'm working my butt off trying to get a demo out for everyone, but when I want a brake from coding maps and triggers, and when I want to just do sprites, I'll do sprites. And of course I have to be able to script thoses things scripting is 50% of the whole game if not 75%.

hugh....
Just to let everybody know, when I started this, I was pretty shure everyone was gonna think that this was just gonna turn into a 1 week idea, and then I would drop it due to lack of knowledge and determination....well, for those of you who did think that, you were wrong. I know the challenges that I have to overcome to make this happen, but that doesn't deter me, it doesn't make me look the ot
