Keep in mind that if you're eevee was a male, you would have to breed it with a ditto. And don't worry, Ditto will be catchable by that point in the game.

Can't wait for the next beta

[icychill66]

Here's an update dealing with the EV Training Sector. Its features include:
1. EV checking on all stats
2. IV checking on all stats
3. EV increasing items for sale
4. EV decreasing berries for sale
5. 6 different routes (one for each stat)
6. Limit on how high-leveled your pokemon can be depending on the number of Gym badges you have acquired.

Nice idea

I love the multi chose
great job scripting it.

[Tomackze]

Wait... why do you want to lose EV? I thought you'd want more EV?

I'm so confused with this lol

I love the addition, as you can only have 510 EVs max, and each sat can have 255 EVs max. So, if you make the wrong choice, you can undo it. I love them being for sale, and that is one nice script.

[Tomackze]

Ah that makes sense then. So it is more if you want a "powerhouse" pokemon for one category.

But man... paying just to get rid of some EV, damn...

Is it better than messing up permanently?

Anyway, I watched this hack from afar, without posting much, and I love it. Keep up the good work! I love the effort you have put in it!

[Dankesque]

Man, it's a shame that there aren't berry bushes in Fire Red, because the EVs would be a great reason to grow them. Get 10 Pomeg berries, turn them in to erase such-and-such many EV's, etc...

Looks great, keep it up. =)

[icychill66]

There is one thing I didn't mention about the EV-erasing berries. In Diamon/Pearl/Platinum, those berries DO erase EV's. However, in Fire Red/Leaf Green, they are only used for Pokeblocks. The player never actually obtain a "berry" item in my scripting. The man just feeds it to the pokemon, and the effects are the same.

Also, here's an update!

This girl will act as a second rival. While the hero is more of a buddy with the original rival, this mystery girl has some hate to go along with her!

I like the EV lowering berries option but is the store going to mirror the games exactly, or just reduce the EVs by 10 each time? In the games an EV reducing berries lower a stat that is over 100 EVs down to exactly 100 EVs - Whether its 101 or 255, it will return to 100 EVs with any subsequent berries reducing the stat by 10.

Sorry, I was just curious if this was going to copy the games :)

Your hack is coming along nicely and I hope to see it progress in the future :D

Nope. I want them to only decrease by 10 each time I have them priced at $200 right now, but I think I will lower it down to about $75...

Wow, I'm loving this new feature, certainly one of the most interesting I've seen recently. For some reason or another I like the multichoice boxes' new look better than the original, all you need to do is make the normal textbox look as pretty and I'll be pretty satisfied. Well done. :)

Thanks Don't worry. I'm ditching the orange look to the normal textbox. That was just the first time I had ever experimented with pallets, and I haven't changed it to something better, yet. I'm thinking that I'll make it similar to the multichoice boxes, but with purple instead of blue.

[Tomackze]

Am very interested in finding out what the hatred is stemmed from

[MatyoSai]

HEEEEYYYYYY u added my idea ) this is so cool good job man

haha that's great!! nice work

[Cilerba]

You've done a great job with this hack so far.
The only thing I don't like is the trees. The shading seems a bit off to me.

Thanks! Although, I like the trees because I don't think any other hacks use these specific trees and this shading color scheme.


Mapping for beta 2.0 is officially 100% complete. Here's a couple sneak peeks at the different EV Training Zones. There are six total, remember.

Spoiler:

HP ZONE




DEFENSE ZONE

Keep posted because some cool new sprites will be added in the next few days, and trust me, you'll want to see them!

EDIT: I just noticed some tile errors on the left side of the water of the defense zone. They will be fixed!

[nasonex]

It's a good Hack because I love the way you work with your teammates.

Hopefully you should progress slowly but surely to avoid bugs and glitches.

And always remember, "Every Detail Counts" :D

Good Luck on your Hack! Can't wait for the Next Update! :3

[icychill66]

I guess this would be a good time to just announce that I have fixed the Quick Claw glitch, and the Rija City Pokemon Center bug. I accidentally scripted "giveitem 0xQUICKCLAW 0x0". Basically, I was telling the game to give the hero zero Quick Claws. There must have been an initial function built into the OW in that Pokemon Center because I simply changed its event number, and now he doesn't get possessed by a bad-colored here sprite!

[MatyoSai]

When do you think the next beta's going to come out?

P.S I love those maps for EV training sectors good work.

[icychill66]

Just so you know, asking for release dates is generally frowned upon. Next time you are interested in that kind of thing, just pm me instead of posting it here. I'm thinking within the next 2 weeks. I want to have every typo and detail perfected and all the new sprites inserted for the release.

Thanks about the maps. I tried to keep them small and simple because the EV Zones are for grinding out the training, not for exploration.

[Tomackze]

Dude you are making really great progress with this game. I can definitely see it finishing in a year

[nasonex]

I agree with Tomackze, its been a long progress but a lot had been
developed and fixed.

I really wish I could do something to help...

Anyways, Good job with this Updates. Its really been a long progress. And
you have a pretty decent team too! :D

Good LucK! :3
