Looks Cool, can I be a spriter for it?

[Mr. Handsome]

I love the idea. I hope to see great things from it, I know I will. I alredy like the male protagenest, I have seen it and all of the rest of yalls havent :-P

Ill be posting back soon.

[Miror B.]

@PokemonCrazy: Of course you can!

@Mr. Handsome: Thank you for your comments!

[Mr. Handsome]

Woah, I love the Banner-logo thing. The Kyogre is great. But one thing bugs me, with the "Pokemon" text, the black outline seems a little rough to me on the uper part of the letters...

Can't wait to see more!

[Pekachoo]

Hey looks good. I could help with something if you want me to. I'm okay at spriting.

[arcanumghost]

Here to help with scripting - sign me up if you want : D

[Neo-Wolf]

One unique feature - You are hacking Emerald - don't - The ROMs unstable . Hack Ruby or FireRed instead .

Well, I plan to utilize the tagteam battle function in this hack, therefore, Emerald is my only choice.

[Mr. Handsome]

I have something to Suggest, The Ralts family......

I like the list BTW. Ill be checking back!

[Miror B.]

UPDATE: Added the Shadow Pokémon List.

[The Gambling Gallade]

Wow! That's all I can say. This already seems amazing. I've been working on a small hack of my own, but this looks like it will completely shoot down mine! Ha! Mine is just a practice hack pretty much. This looks so amazing though! Keep up the good work! I am going to love how this turns out!

[~Frozen Darkness~]

One problem. The snag machine. How will you script it?

Otherwise, I like it. Looks interesting.

Will Kyogre look like the one in the logo in its Shadow Form?

[Blaziquaza]

Looks like this game's gonna be good.

I'd like to see the Dratini family be Shadow Pokemon.

Oh,yeah,I'll be one of your Spriters.

I'll have a scripted battle with the shadow pokémon happen after the trainer battle with said pokémon.

And then, yes.

Hm, I just might include Dragonite.
And you may be a spriter.

[Neo-Wolf]

Emerald for tag-team battles ? You can probably script them in FR also . And are you making a Snag machine ? It's never been done before .

No, it's been said that you can't do this in FireRed.

And, no Snag Machine. Say you fight in a battle with a Peon that has a Shadow Pokémon. You defeat the Shadow Pokémon, and immediately after the battle with the Peon, you fight in a scripted battle with that Shadow Pokémon. This is what I plan to do.

[Neo-Wolf]

Ok . I will look forward to this one .

Thanks!I won't let you down!

[arcanumghost]

I'm sorry I'm bailing out so quickly after this project just got started, but I have a busy day tomorrow and then I leave early Sunday morning for a week long vacation, so I won't have a chance to get started until a few days in to August. I'll bring my computer with me just in case I can get on the internet, but I'm not too hopeful for internet or time over the week. Don't shoot down the possibility of snagging pokémon in battle until I've seen how much influence I can have on the code. I hope to come back and see lots of awesome shadow sprites! I'll be back in early August if not earlier!

[Ray Maverick]

Hm. The story doesnt tell us much,its very small,but i like it so far. Good luck,i'd like to see the screenshots.

[Neo-Wolf]

A very small story . You should expand it.

[Miror B.]

UPDATE: Plot expanded a bit.

[~Kian~]

[Miror B.]

UPDATE: World Map prototype added.
