Pokémon Amethyst - Page 3

Come on! The more the merrier. Please

Wichu · #52 March 3rd, 2008, 07:35 AM

Well, looking at your thread, you only seem to have names. Besides, most of your suggestions are evos of old Pokémon, and I already have enough of those. Four designers is easily enough for a game.

Oh yes, and anyone who hasn't seen, I updated the first post with the starters and some more animations.

killin_kobra · #53 March 4th, 2008, 02:36 AM

What do you need help with?

Wichu · #54 March 4th, 2008, 06:40 AM

If you'd read the first post, you'd know I'm looking for spriters, musicians and moves/abilities/items.

New Age Retro Hippie · #55 March 5th, 2008, 01:25 AM

It seems to be coming along excellently- But I have a little jibe with the name "Charcub".
It's mainly because of Chimchar and Charmander- It's just CHAR is used a little too much. Perhaps something like Ignicub or something?

~~Mitchman~~ · #56 March 11th, 2008, 06:11 PM

um is the site bugged Im looking here and there and all the posts I read are coming back as Unread since march 4th something is fishy

Wichu · #57 March 11th, 2008, 07:47 PM

Yeah, the forum messed up, so it was restored to a backup. This means everything that happened since the 4th is gone.

Anyone who posted ideas, could you please repost them?

Anyway, I'll post all the deleted stuff as soon as I can.

LONG POST ALERT!

Out of request by Wichu, I shall repost my ideas, just an-noted. Some might be missing, because a few of my last ideas were off the top of my head. Also, some names might be different, as I didn't have the names picked out yet for my never-gonna-happen hack, just an idea.
~Rename 'Burn Heal', 'Ice Heal', And 'PRZ Heal' to 'Aloe Vera', 'Heat Pad', and 'Relaxant', respectively.
~Add new 'Full' Restores (Note, name as needed. These names are disposable.)
~~~Small Restore: Heals Status, and only 100 HP, but cheaper.
~~~Wide Restore: Heals Status and 'Hidden' statuses, such as Attraction, Confusion, or being Wrapped, etc
~~~Giga Restore: Heals Status, even fainted, and all HP as if Pokemon just came from a Pokemon Center (NEW IDEA! If used on an un-fainted Pokemon in battle, also heals 'hidden' statuses like Wide Restore. Wow. They just kinda fly in from left field, don't they? lulz.)
~Another New Idea: Perhaps 'Fossils' for non-extinct Pokemon, that have different move-sets or something, as if they developed new abilities over time?
~ 'Max' items for more than just 'PP Max', like 'HP Max', 'Calcium Max', etc.
~'Ability Up' and 'Ability Max' (man that'd be worth some dough!) that act the same as Calcium, HP Up, etc, except they effect all stats at once.
~A Rare Candy-like Item that also gives EVs before leveling the Pokemon, so that you wouldn't have to worry about missing out on a whole level of valuable EVs. Rare Cookie? Rare Pie? Rare Rice Ball? etc.
~New Rods and Modified original rods
~~~Old rod: catches starter-level Pokemon. Pokemon Encountered depends on fishing source.
~~~Good Rod: Catches Average Level Pokemon. Pokemon Encountered depends on fishing source.
~~~Great Rod: Catches Average Level Deep-Sea Pokemon
~~~Super Rod: Catches Upper Level Pokemon (river, ocean, and deep-sea Pokemon)
~~~Top Rod: Catches High Level Pokemon (levels 50-60 area)(river, ocean, and deep-sea Pokemon)
~Revival of Apricorns. Here's some ideas for additional apricorns I had:
~~~Orange Apricorn -> New Ball: Better catch rate for Pokemon species you do not have.
~~~Clear Apricorn -> Copy Ball: Acts exactly like the last Pokeball you used (stock up for inf. Masterballs!)
~~~Violet Apricorn -> Power Ball: Better at catching higher-level Pokemon
~~~Indigo Apricorn -> Weakening Ball: Caught Pokemon reduces its level to 1, becomes its lowest stage, and its stats are minimized, as if It was newly hatched.
~Perhaps some new Mail Stationaries? How about bringing back ones from G/S/C?
~How about new legendaries that balance out other legendaries or add to the flair?
~~~Clorotro (Cloro=Clhlorophyll + Tro=Quatro) Grass/Flying legendary bird.
~~~Perhaps modifying Ho-Oh to be an alternative to fire/flying, as we've already had a fire/flying legendary: Moltres.
~~~Chilltran: Water/Steel - opposite Heatran
~~~How about a ???/Dragon 'Angel' Pokemon opposite demonic looking Giratina (see 'Arceus' below for what I mean about ??? type)
~~~Maybe a 'full moon' alternate to Cresselia?
~~~(New Idea!): Maybe an 'evolved' version of Phione, which breeds out a baby form of 'Manaphy'? Which as you know, breeds out a Phione?
~~~ Serebii.net points out that there is a '???' type Arceus programmed into the game, but no ??? plate and only one ??? move. Perhaps you could expand on this? Make a ??? plate and a multitude of ??? type attacks, which have their own weakness/resistance table?
~RE: Rainbow Wing/Silver Wing. When used in the right place, item vanishes, and you encounter Ho-Oh/Lugia. I had some alternatives. (Note. Names may be different, as many were off the top of my head.) I chose 'feather' instead of 'wing' because if it was a wing, how would they fly?
~~~Blue Feather - Articunoo
~~~Yellow Feather - Zapdos
~~~Red Feather - Moltres
~~~Green Feather - 'Clorotro'
~~~Mind's Eye - Mewtwo
~~~Pure Heart - Mew
~~~Thunder Claw - Raikou
~~~Fire Claw - Entei
~~~Wind Claw - Suicune
~~~Silver Feather - Lugia
~~~Rainbow Feather - Ho-oh
~~~Chrono Leaf - Celebi
~~~Brown Stone - Regirock
~~~Blue Stone - Regice
~~~Grey Stone - Registeel
~~~Transparent Stone - Regigigas
~~~Red Egg Stone - Latias
~~~Blue Egg Stone - Latios
~~~Blue Orb - Kyogre
~~~Red Orb - Groudon
~~~Strato Orb - Rayquaza
~~~Hope Tag - Jirachi
~~~Virus Vial - Deoxys
~~~Broken Transceiver - Rotom
~~~Pixie Dust - Uxie
~~~Spirit Ball - Mespirit
~~~Elf Magic - Azelf
~~~Grand Diamond - Dialga
~~~Grand Pearl - Palkia
~~~Molten Gemstone - Heatran
~~~Frozen Gemstone - 'Chilltran'
~~~Black Spire - Giratina (named it a spire, because he has no feathers. Just Spires)
~~~White Feather - 'Angel' alternate to Giratina
~~~Lunar Feather - Cresselia
~~~Full Feather - 'Full Moon' alternate
~~~Rare Egg - Manaphy (or Phione, if you go with my 'Phione - ? - ? - Manaphy' idea
~~~Black Smoke - Darkrai
~~~Small Flower - Shaymin
~~~Unknown Object - Arceus
~Differences in gender, metallic Pokemon, different colored Pokemon (Idea was ousted, due to the 'Duh!' factor.)
~Maybe modify breeding so that Pokemon specie, attacks, etc are randomized between the 2 parents rather than 'female specie' 'male attacks'. Or perhaps only some of them.
~(My favorite idea): All Pokemon have a gender AND can breed, including ditto. As well, legendaries are harder to breed, can only breed with their own specie or a similar legendary. Legendary birds (including Latias/os) , legendary dogs, Mewtwo/Mew/Celebi, Regis, are just some of the breeding groups I came up with.

And that's all I remember. It doesn't matter to me if you credit me or not. I don't mind either way.

Wichu · #61 March 12th, 2008, 06:02 PM

Thanks! As I said, here's some updates that were lost in the backup:

Switching Pokémon without going into the Pokémon menu. Just hold Shift and press up or down on the Start menu.

Some moves by Ardi81.

Thunderrr!!! A quick test - the animations are placeholders.

Anyway, I will be uploading any new images to a Photobucket account I made for the game, so you can see all of them

Neo-Dragon · #62 March 12th, 2008, 06:20 PM

Looks really cool. The pokemon quick switching is a good idea. (I say that because I have one like it in my game too :P).
The game is looking great and I'm sure it will play great too. Good job so far. Nice update.

adamb241 · #63 March 12th, 2008, 06:41 PM

Nice, shouldn't Smeargle freeze after the attack though?

Or maybe a stat reduction?

The Smell · #64 March 12th, 2008, 07:46 PM

Wow! So there was a problem...

Anyway, I posted a new form for Chatot. It doesn't look very different but, take note it was made from scratch!

Mine -

- Original

Hope you like it!

~Smell

Wichu · #65 March 12th, 2008, 08:22 PM

adamb241: It does freeze. I edited it after making the animation to make it clearer.
The Smell: It's OK for a scratch. However, I can see some mistakes:
The lines. Some are too thick - keep them at 1 pixel. Also, too many are black - use darker shades of colour. Finally, they are too straight - they need to look more curved.
Second, there aren't enough colours - you seem to have reused the DP palette. Advance sprites usually have 4 shades of each colour - highlight, base, shadow and line. Since you're not limited to 16 colours, use all those choices.
Thirdly, the shapes: Try not to use the shape tools, but if you do, use shading in the lines. Its head looks a little off; move it across a bit. And its eye is circular on your sprite - it should be circular.
When I sprite, I usually hand-draw a picture, scan it, resize, and go over the lines. As both the people who tried have had problems with Chatot, I'll sprite Chatot myself.
If you want to help, please choose a DP Pokémon you know you can do perfectly; I don't want anything less for the game.
Feel free to do backsprites too. Just make sure the lines/colours/shading is in Advance style, since DP and Advance style sprites clash.

LynnCreed · #66 March 12th, 2008, 08:35 PM

Just some thoughts and ideas: The hair on the trainer below is equally shiney at all times of the day. Not to be picky but it looks odd. Your bearcub has too much color contrast for shadow/light too. It looks synthetic-thread shiney rather than natural-fur shiney, you know?

I think you said you were working on it somewhere but the three shadow species in your opening vid have rough coloring. Their color splotches look like you weren't quite sure when to stop coloring and make it black again. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it right. anyway, just constructive criticism, nothing personal. Want to see this be successful.

You story-line sounds like a diamond-pearl copy and basically replaces all the legendaries of that game with new pokemon that fill the same roles. just saying.

Item ideas: Comfort blanket: rare item that induces friendship evolutions upon levelling up. If i come up with another before the next post in this thread I'll just edit, otherwise I'll post again

Anyway, I'm going to be using day-night tinting in battle too. Screens:

Morning

Day

Evening

Night

And finally, we don't need designers any more. However, I am looking for spriters to sprite the DP Pokémon in Advance style (like Shinx in the screenshots). This is because the DP sprites use a different style from the Advance sprites, and I'm sticking with Advance for this game.
The sprites should be at least as good as my sprites, and should be in 64x64 resolution, scaled up to 128x128. I will not accept simple resizes of DP sprites, as they have a different style. I need backsprites too.
Well, thanks for the replies!

darth meanie · #67 March 13th, 2008, 05:39 PM

Note: I can't sprite, and my pre-evos always suck. I am just dumping some of the ideas that have been spinning in my head.

Once Again, Note: I just realized I still have to work on the second one I posted. When I finish it, ill finish it here.

Everyone else, thanks for the feedback!

Illiterate · #72 March 14th, 2008, 09:33 AM

Inner Flame/Might: You mean OMG so broken uber?
Diamod Skull: You mean Rock Head?
Natural Antidote: You mean Immunity?
Cruise Missile: You mean No Guard?
Dust Shield: You mean clear body/white smoke?

I don't like Embcub. but Embrcub sounds really good.
