Whoops! Hehe, didn't see the item slot. This is just an idea, but the area above health could give the name of the Pokeball used in addition to the graphic above it.

I've decided to go with Myzou's suggestion, as it would be the most useful thing to put there.

And I've been working on the 4th page too -

What do you think?

I'm working on the page that comes up when you press A (or spacebar/C/Enter in RMXP).

Hm . . . remaining PP. I guess that would be useful when determining whether to take a break to head to a Pokemon Center or keep going. It's better than my idea.

I've basically finished the summary screen now, with the move info page. Here it is:

And also, the little icons which appear under certain conditions:

PokéRus/Status

Non-infectious PokéRus

And shiny.

If anyone knows where I can find a text file with all of the DP move descriptions, could they please tell me? The Advance ones are a bit short, so the Desc. box looks empty.

EDIT: Finished the Egg summary screen:

Screens look really nice mate. Good luck with this.

Looks like we kinda think alike with the FR/LG status menu, yours is very very well done, very unique I like it. It has that DP flare to it. But if poccil ever does the Met at whatever level at what ever place...where will you put that lol Theres so much other vital info on the status screens. Anyway great game. Good luck with it.

There's a large gap under the picture on the Trainer Memo page (page 2). That's where it will go. I'm glad you like it!

EDIT: I've made the Pokémon animate like on FRLG (jump up and down) when you view their summary. I also fixed the bug where if you pressed up or down on you first or last Pokémon's summary respectively, you'd still hear their cry. Animation coming tomorrow!

If you need help with move descriptions, I suggest [pokemon.marriland.com]. It's coming out very good so far. Keep up the good work!

Thanks, everyone! I ended up using the downloadable Pokédex data package from Legendary Pokémon, as it contained a text file which I could merge with my Moves.txt file to avoid having to write everything out manually.

Anyway, I made two more animations: one of the Pokémon summary, and one of a battle, showcasing the new HP bar colouring.
Sorry for the bad quality - this is because of the GIF format. But it's better than YouTube's quality (I think), so I'm sticking with it.

Summary.gif

The summary screen, with Pokémon and page-turning animations. Notice the egg shakes more when it's about to hatch.

HPBaranimation.gif

I scripted the HP bar colours to change gradually between green and red. You can see when the Pokémon has half of its HP remaining by the percentage (you used to have to rely on the colour), so I figured why not make the colouring smoother?

Any comments?

EDIT: DP move descriptions fit the space perfectly :D

Next idea.

FLAMING WINGS
Type: Fire
PWR: 80
PP: 20
1/4 damage recoil

<Fire attack for flying pokemon's like Pidgeot>

It's my last idea but i think, best idea. It's very useful for flying pokemons when they must fight with steel and ice pokemons. I know, you must choice 12 ideas, but when you have more you can choose better. Screens are very good, if you complete this game, they can be better like D/P games. Can you add in game attacks animations? Do you need still more ability ideas?

I'll try, but it's not a priority. Do you know how many attacks there are? :S

(There will be around 600 different attacks.)

Yeah, i know, you don't must do this. Your game can be still perfectly. I think, you don't need change HP bar, it's good. Do you want add more fakes or only new starters, Chimecho evolution and Wichu? New ability idea:

SINGING OF GOD - Lowers all opponents stats by 2 stage. <like for some "god" legendary pokemons>

There will be more Pokémon, I just haven't announced them yet. I'll be keeping a lot of them secret until you play the game.

And Singing of God is broken - reducing by 2 stages is equal to halving that stat. Even Intimidate, which only lowers one stat by a single stage, is considered to be one of the best abilities.

Anyway, Arceus already has Multitype ;)

Flaming Wings (or just Flaming Wing because of the 12-letter limit) is an awesome idea, though. Maybe I could have it as a TM? Normal-types learning it by level-up just isn't quite right. Although Moltres, Ho-oh and Charizard should be able to learn it by level-up.

EDIT: Making the move animations would take hundreds of times longer than scripting the HP bar.
