Pokémon: Odyssey

yeah thats a good idea can't wait to see what you come up with

Well I was thinking about drifting away from a battle of any kinda and having a more realistic bug catch, with a net etc. Obviously I know you can't net a pokémon like scyther, but for the mini game it will have to be that way lol.

Or I may change it to be more like a finding question, different areas have different pokemon etc so searching a tree could let you find a caterpie or wurmple, but searching under a rock may give you nothing etc.

Come on people, input input input. The person with the bets idea, will be scripted as a contestant for the contest.

Um how about since you cant net a scyther you kinda um tranqualize it and send it in? Or for big pokemon like it and pinsir um try and make it friendly by giving it food and stuff. But for the little bugs send an almighty net on them. Also with the ideas youll get in and some other posts I think the demo would come a bit later then post 300.

Yeah i think it will end up being later than 300 to :P

sorry guys. But there's just so much I wanna add into the first demo lol. It needs to be added in as well, because it's where it goes. lol.

So don't take 300 as a definitely, I'll try my hardest, but I don't think i'll make it, I still need to sort out the D/P NPCs yet.

So my ideas good or no? I think making it faint from drugs is bettr then trying to make friendship with a killer bug though.

You'd need a spriter, but maybe you could do this thing where instead of battling, the encounter goes into this mini game where you have to lure a pokemon into a trap and when it steps on the trap- the player must press enter to nab it.
So like, in "battle" instead of having turns- the first thing you do is set the trap- then place bait (the bait will judge how much the pokemon is lured in) that at random, move the spirte of the pokemon on top of the trap sprite. Then the player must press shift (or a random number between 1-9 so he cant cheat) to nab the pokemon.

Just make the Demo already. It doesn't have to be perfect you know. I'm beginning to think your afraid of what we'll think. But so far you've done a great job.

Also, you don't have to make the demo so long.

*yells* ITS A DEMO FOR CHRISTS SAKE

Yeah I agree.

Well let me give the idea i have so far.

As you choose to enter the contest the screen fades and now you are in the contest mini game, there's lot's of different places for bug pokemon to hide in the background.

You have a menu with your "Bug Kit" detailed in it, things like, bait, net, tranquilliser, and Park Ball etc.

there will be no active pokemon at first, you have to attract them, using the bait, the net will be useful for stopping Pokémon running away and then using a park ball to catch them. The tranq can be used on any pokemon, and weakens the enemy to half hp, thus giving less points for the pokemon.

So it's best to net and then catch it.

Now there's no need to be rude. I'm not afraid of what you'll think, I just want to make the game as good as I can. I am not adding anymore storyline so the demo wont get any "longer".

I'm adding in the features which need to be there.

SO for national Park the bug catching needs to be there.

What do people think?

Everyone here is smarter then nintendo. I mean sure they got the power of 10000 men but hey we use there graphics properly and make games properly. Well the teenagers who acually do but hey i think a lot of us here who do this kinda studd will be at nintendos idea desks soon.

OK I sincerely apologize for being so childish and unreasonable its just you kept making promises you can't keep.

But on a lighter, more creative note, for the new mini game I was thinking of giving the trainers some sort of cage to catch their Pokemon. And when they are finished with the session they could trade in their caught Pokemon and in return receive them in their poke balls for the small price of 400 "Pokemon currency"

Okay I'm now quickly whipping up something that will make due as a background for the mini game, it's a mixture of graphics from D/P and FR/LG lol.

I'll upload soon.

like u buy the pokemon that u caught in the contest that could work oh and waudby nice job when your finished with the minigame is going to be like you can only get some pokemon in certain areas of the park

Can't wait to see it.

I hope it looks nice.

Right here's my quick presentation of what I think the contest should look like.



What do you guys think?

I added the scare option, in case you get a pokémon you don't want etc.

Oho thats nice. For tranquilizer will you have a shooting target and the effectso of the drug is more stronger on where you shot it or no?

It looks nice but I think you should change the color of the font since its a mini game and you probably want to give it a more unique feel.

But overall it looks stunning.

^_^

it looks great and i agree with cuttyflam you should change the color of the font you don't want it be be like every other normal event its a minigame
