Did I screw up? xD

Somehow I found an ultraball while playing (In the second mission area...somehwere.) and caught a Bellsprout to teach it cut. But hearing that we will get three other partners through events...erm, ya. O.o So first, why was there an ultraball on the ground if we're not supposed to use it? And second, how can I get rid of the bellsprout? xD

Well, The Ultraball was probably a glitch. Without the computers around, you can't get rid of the bellsprout.

And, isnt that the way it's working now, anyway? :P

It's simple to make that more realistic. Just increase the stats of the "poke team" to make it stronger than one poke. Talk about "team strength", if the "team strength" is 0, team is over... It makes sense to me.
And again, it's not like always battling with one poke (team in this case) will be boring. As the leveling up while doing combinations is what'll give some excitment to the game (Man... If we only could add more than 4 attacks the idea would be even better)

Well, it's up to you. I just got interested in the concept and wanted to put some of my creativity into it :laugh:

No, it is not. The PLAYER has a CHIKORITA, PIKACHU and a TORCHIC to begin with... :\
Hm... Now that you mention it... I guess it could be nice.
Then again, I need to think of it further more. xD

Hmmmm

BEHOLD, PURE MATHEMATICS TIME! COMBINATORICS!

Let n be the number of pokemon that he's going to put in teams of 3.
Since ABC != CBA (order matters) and elements can't be repeated, the number of total possible teams is variations of n elements taken in groups of 3, V(n,3)=n!/(n-3)!
Which is a large number unless n is a small number. For example, if you're putting 10 pokemon in teams, the total possible teams would be 10!/7!=10*9*8=720.

Without the "leading pokemon" thing (ABC=ACB=BAC=BCA=CAB=CBA, it'd be C(n,3)= n over 3 = n! / (3! * (n-3)!), which is a smaller number. For 10 pokemon, there'd be 10! / (3! * 7!) = (10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1)/(3*2*7*6*5*4*3*2*1)=(10*9*8)/(3*2)=10*3*4=120


Here's some wikipedia support
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinatorics

LOL! I understood merely half of the equation...
I love math, but I tend to forget things. xD

Heh, no problem. :P The words "How did THAT get there?" Come to mind though. xD

well, the lack of beta testing is the cause of that Ultra Ball there... :P

anyways, it seems I can't update you guys for anything if my internet connection is so damn slow and in a stop-and-go system... -_- it needs to be fixed...

Well, a few updates... I am still mapping Aqua Swamp. Yet, the name will be changed though, depends of the suitable name for the plot...

Also, new OverWorlds inserted.
And expect one of the player's real-life friend to have an event to join you.

zel... I still haven't decided yet...

That will be all for now...

It's kind of not very C00L because you can't get more Pokemon.

There could be (a Pokemon, doesn't matter who it is, a Porygon, for example) in Pokemon Square that can store your Pokemon in Virtual Space (Porygon has the script of computer in Pokecenters). You can catch Pokemon with Apricorns of something (of course you must catch a Pokemon in a mission). And when you catch it, it goes to the Virtual Space in Porygon's (the box in the PC).

I wrote this idea of mine. You can say it's good or you can say it's bad.

btw. I love the Abra you made and its script!!!

He already said I think a post back that u can get certain pokemon through script, he just hasn't told anyone which ones.
In other words, it's a secret.

Well I've only played through the 2nd mission, but as of what I've played so far, I loved everything, except....

The beginning dungeon (Sinister Woods) lacks a way to heal poison. I know that there are healing plants occasionally, but I still almost died from Wurmple-induced poisoning, so that may be something to think about.

Just finished the beta. All I wanted to say the beta is great although it's a bit short though.
Found another glitch. If you go to B.F, and keep going left, I end up ina desert full Ruby trainers and ruby texts.
