Hi! :D I would like to do a collab and like, join our projects but there are some differences.. I'll state what I don't like about yours, and what difference I have in mine :) Hope you don't mind! :D
I'll state what your and mine hacks have in common :
- We both are having an updated Kanto with new features! A little more back story, a little more mischief done by team rocket, etc!
Now I'll state what I would modify in your hack / what I plan for my hack :
- I don't like the idea of Mega Evolutions to be in game as normal evolutions.. permanently evolving seems a bit lame and it will also be unfair as we CAN have a team of monsters where all are mega-evolved AND can hold items that boost their strengths further.
To counter this, what I thought was, we will add some Megas, BUT we won't have them, only special trainers (like E4 second time) and some trainers in Battle Tower etc will have a mega evolved pokemon, we'll just show by story that we didn't found the stones yet. This will also make the game challenging :)
NOTE : The megas will be different pokemons, i.e NOT evolving from anyone. and not obtainable. Just some trainers will have it :)
- I don't see it anywhere in your thread, but I plan to have NEW pokemons.. possibly all the fan favorites from Gen IV, V and VI too! I already expanded my dex as well! :)
- I am using Mr.Doll steak's base, so I have tonnes of new moves and abilities, the movesets are updated as per Gen VI. So I really don't like to give the starters moves like we want. It should match Gen VI exactly.
- I am also adding 2 new trainer classes (Fairy tale girl and Hipster :P)
- I am making the overall game a bit challenging and difficult.
- I plan to make national pokemons available after a certain point in the game. (like after having 3 gyms or 4 gyms). With suitable story ofcourse, maybe team-rocket's mischief makes new pokemons transport here? and so Oak gives us national dex.
- I am also updating the sprites to DS styled ones :) (Have done quite some already)
So yeah this is pretty much all. What do you say?
