Pokémon Amethyst

[Wichu]

Yeah, thanks everyone for the move ideas. I really need to make a list of what people have suggested...
I'll edit this post with comments about the moves later. Why? I have an update!

UPDATE: The Mystery Gift system is 90% finished. I tested it by reproducing the PBR Electivire and Magmortar gifts (I haven't actually got them, so the description is different). Here's the screens:


I haven't mapped any Marts yet, so I stuck the guy in a Pokémon Centre for now.


The Pokémon's stats (I haven't made custom sprites for Electivire or Magmortar yet):



And collecting the gifts again after resetting:


Notice that the Pokémon's characteristic and stats are different, while their gender and nature are the same. This is the case for the real gifts too. And the gifts aren't coded into the game - they're stored as external files. This means I can create a brand new gift whenever I want, without having to release a patch/new release. For the record, I got lucky the second time with IVs:
Adamant #466 Electivire: 14 - 15 / 31 / 0 - 1 / 6 - 7 / 16 - 17 / 28 - 29
Modest #467 Magmortar: 6 - 7 / 6 - 7 / 14 - 15 / 31 / 20 - 21 / 26 - 27
Max Attack/Special Attack ftw!

Oh, and ignore the fact that the player seems to have changed gender. The old save file got corrupted, so I started again.

More updates soon!

EDIT: Oh whoops, I forgot to set the default font to FRLG. That's why some of the writing on the summary goes off the edge.

[Joey the Cockroach]

I think i have a move idea, not a very good one

Electric Reel
ATK: 70
ACC: 95
PP: 20
DES: a fast electric attack which hits the foe first. can lower the foe's speed. (Quick attack effect)
Learned by: most electric pokemon

[Wichu]

It's a bit overpowered. Lower the power to 30-40ish, and you have yourself a nice move.

[BlackRainbow*]

Wow nice. I really like to see some maps or maps in action
keep up the great work.

[Lorem Ipsum]

Wichu, am I accepted as musician?

[Wichu]

Yeah, you're on the team.

EDIT: I changed the default font to FRLG, and made it so you can't change it. This is due to the other fonts being too large, and making the text overflow occasionally, like in this screen:

[Fangking Omega]

Looking really excellent as always. More than impressed with the implementation of Mystery Gift!

[Tetsu]

So, Wichu, I have to ask. Did any of my moves make it in? If not, that's cool too.

Anyway, I really want to fill this post with something else to divert attention from the fact that that was the only thing I wanted, but, I couldn't think of anything to distract with... Ooh! Shiny! Look! ->

[Lorem Ipsum]

Thanks Wichu. I PMed you about it.

So, until again, b-- WHOA

Those screenshots look INCREDIBLE. I am glad that I work for this game, they look like they have come right out of a Pokémon game :O

[adamb241]

Awesome, the way you did that is awesome! I hope I get one! XD!

[Joey the Cockroach]

ok, lowered attack to 40.

Electric Reel
ATK: 40
ACC: 95
PP: 20
DES: a fast electric attack which hits the foe first. can lower the foe's speed. (Quick attack effect)
Learned by: most electric pokemon

and a new attack to go along with it.

Scramble
atk: ---
acc: 100
pp: 15
Des: can make the enemy pokemon attack with random moves. lasts for 3-6 turns.
learned by: most psychic pokemon

[Neo-Dragon]

Adding the Mystery Gift option is a neat feature. Don't worry about the font. It isn't that big of a deal. :)

[Lorem Ipsum]

If you could reply to my PM, Wichu, it would be much appreciated.

[robert5000]

wow looks great cant wait to play it

[Zeta Dimentio]

Even more ideas for dragons and dragon-like pokemon.

Name: Fierce Pride
Type: Dragon
Power: 80
Accuracy: 80
PP: 15
Can be learned by: Any dragon except Bagon
Description: Attacks the foe while trying to recover its dignity


And a move for Aerodactyl

Name: Ancient Claw
Type: Rock
Power: 120
Accuracy: 90
PP: 5
Can be learned by: Aerodactyl
Description: Gathers power for 1 turn then attacks on the second.


And... finally

Name: DraconicWing
Type: Dragon
Power: 75
Accuracy: 100
PP: 15
Can be learned by: Any Dragon type, and Charizard

That's it... for now

[adamb241]

I really don't want to be the guy who has to make all those attack animations, lol

[Blitzballer]

I have two moves that kinda go together! :]

Chivalry:
attack: --
acc: 100
description: The user is kind and attacks last for the next 2-5 turns. Their attacks' power is doubled.

Anarchy:
attack: --
acc: 100
description: The opponent Pokemon disobeys it's trainer for 2-5 turns. Attack fails against wild Pokemon.

[Wichu]

Thanks!

You think making animations will be hard? Try scripting at least 50 new move effects! :D

Hmm... Scramble is a bit overpowered - it's basically 3-6 free turns, unless it can be got rid of by switching. I like the idea of Anarchy more, though they have similar effects.

Rubii: Good moves as usual. I'd suggest raising Ancient Wing's accuracy if it has to recharge. And DragonicWing should be DraconicWing.

Kwwa4: As I said, Anarchy is good. Chivalry, I'm not sure of - it would still go last in Trick Room, right? It's a nice idea, as it would encourage people to use slower, bulkier Pokémon instead of fast sweepers, which are currently monopolizing the metagame (compared to slower ones).

[Retribution]

So since with all the moves, I decided to make abilities for Dialga and Palkia (I might do Ho-oh and Lugia soon.)

Dialga
Ability: Time Warp
Time Warp: This Pokemon has a 20% chance of going first no matter the speed of the opponent pokemon.

Palkia
Ability: Spatial Boost
Spatial Boost: Increases the power of Water and Dragon type moves.

Also Dialga's other ability which goes along with Palkia

Dialga
Ability: Temporal Boost
Temporal Boost: Increases the power of steel and dragon type moves.

[Minorthreat0987]

I really like the Mystery Gift System, it looks excellent. I love it. You did a very good job scripting it and the Pokemon Status Screen aswell.

Good luck with this project.

Wichu what you think about my moves ideas in 9 page and about "underground caves" idea? They're new ideas:

WEIGHT SMASH <Physical> <like for some fighting pokemons>
Type: Steel
PWR: 90
PP: 5
If user's have 110 Attack or low, must recharge after use that move. For each next 20 Attack points more like 110, raise base power of that move by 10 damage. This move can't have more like 150 base power.

TELECOMBO <Physical> <like for Gallade, Deoxys and Claydol>
Type: Psychic
PWR: 85
PP: 10
Can be only use if user have in him moveset move Teleport. Always attack first, never miss.

MOVES SWAP <like for Aipom/Ambipom, Porygon/Porygon 2/Porygon-Z, Mime Jr./Mr. Mime>
Type: Psychic
PWR: --
PP: 10
Swap user's moves with opponent moves for 5 turns. When opponent have now user's this move, they can't use that.

MYSTIC COAT <like for Burmy and Castform>
PWR: Normal
PWR: --
PP: 10
If user have now any acquired type or user's preevolution have any acquired type in time when he evolve into present user form, they have now immunity for that type.

COAT BLOW <Physical> <like for Burmy and Castform>
Type: --
PWR: 65
PP: 20
If user have now any acquired type or user's preevolution have any acquired type in time when he evolve into present user form, this move have now that type.

COMBINATION <Special> <like for Porygon/Porygon 2/Porygon-Z, Togetic, Xatu, Mew, Arceus>
Type: --
PWR: --
PP: 5
Can be use when user have in him moveset 2 or 3 other Special moves. Does combined damage and effects of 2 selected, Special moves with types of both moves (combined moves can have 2 types). They use one PP of both moves. They can't be used if at least one of that moves don't have now any PP. If opponent have weakness, resistances and immunities for types of used moves, this move can't do more damage like for 4x Weakness, less like for 4x Resistance and does nothing if opponent have immunity for both types (but still can do damage if move have at least one type for which opponent don't have immunity). User can't use whichever of combined moves in next turn and can't use now Combined Attack.

[Yuoaman]
