Story

This is just something I wrote in order for you to really get a feel of the region of Apollo and its hero. The viewpoint is from the main character in the game. It is seperated into chapters.

Hope you enjoy :D


Chapter One

Spoiler:

Mythic Beginings

"Whoa, where am I?"

Issaic looked around abit. He was surrounded by thick trees that never semmed to end. Suddenly, it began to rain.

"Great, first I'm in a forest, now its raining all over me?"

Issaic looked for a possible way to avoid the rain. Up ahead was a building. The building had a strange aura to it, as if it was beckoning him to come towards it. Issaic ran towards the old building, shivering from the cold. As he approached the building, he noticed the door was pretty beat up and old looking. It had a large crack going right through the middle.

"Wow, this place looks as if it hasn't been touched in years..."

Issaic pushed the old door open and then attempted to shut the door behind him as best as he could without causing anymore damge. When it had finally appeared to be sut, the entire door collapsed and Issaic shivered as a fierce wind blew cold water droplets through the door.

"So much for being gentle.." Issaic muttered to himself as he walked further into the dimly lit room.

"Whoa..."

As Issaic walked in further, he noticed that all around him were giant statues of what appeared to be unkown pokemon he had never seen in his entire life. Issaic walked up to a statue of a bird-like pokemon and read words inscripted into the surface right below the pokemon.

"Zapdos...? What are these pokemon..?"

Issaic continued walking around the room until he came upon the biggest statue of them all.

"Arceus huh? What does it say under it..?

Issaic bent over to read what was inscripted under the statue. It was a bit dusty so Issaic gently blew it and coughed as a cloud of dust hit his face.

"Powers of young, and powers of old.
Legends continue as time unfolds.
As each one dies, another is born.
And with each legend, a Guardian is sworn...

What the heck is all that supposed to mean..?"

Issaic continued walking down the corridor untill he came across another door. He slowly reached for the handle and gently turned it, afraid it would come right off if he turned to hard. He opened the door just as slowly and walked in to reveal an extremly dim room. Issaic became frozen when he saw a woman standing just a few feet away with her gaze affixed on him.

"The time has come..."

Chapter Two

Spoiler:

Destiny

The woman looked old from afar, probably in her fifty's. She stared at Issaic with a Mystical look on her face as if she was examining his entire being. She sloely walked up to him and Issaic faltered, unsure of what to do.

"Do not be afraid child..."

She said as she walked towards him. Her voice had a soothing effect, as if she could lull him to sleep with her voice alone. She was at arms length now, and Issaic could see her features clearly . She didnt look as old from up close then she did from afar. She had long dark hair that flowed down to her shoulders and she had a comely face with no wrinkles or worry marks at all. After examining him further, she finally spoke.

"I bet your wondering how you got here and why your here in the first place. How you got here is a question that even I cannot answer... As for why your here..."

In the darkness, Issaic could make out a faint yelping sound. Issaic understood nothing so far, but decided to let the lady finish before asking any questions.

"You have a great destiny ahead of you... You are one of the special ones that may alter their paths at their will, causing great changes..."

Issaic was completely baffled by this woman's words, yet somehow, they made sense.

"C-Changes? What kind?"

For a second, Issaic could of sworn he saw the woman smile for a second, but dismissed it as imagination.

"That depends... Would you accept a changed destiny even if it meant giving up your life to protect others?"

Giving up my life? A changed destiny? What is going on here..?

Issaic was unsure of what to say at the moment. But he then boldy answered.

"Yes, I would!"

Issaic didnt understand if this was just some extremely realistic dream, or if it was indeed all real. So he made the decision, hoping that whatever this was would end quicker.

"Then follow me..."

Issaic watched as the woman turned around and in a matter of seconds, faded into the darkness ahead.

"For an old lady, she's pretty quick. I better catch-up before I lose her.."

Issaic started walking further into the the room. Every now and then, he'd hear a snarl and freeze up. The farther he went into the darkness, the louder the sounds got. Issaic finally found what was making all the sounds and Immediatly a smile enveloped his face.

"Pokemon!?"

Issaic yelled excitedly as he got to the part of the room where the old lady was standing.
She stood there, watching three pokemon at play on the ground. They were pretty large pokemon, but not larger than Issaw was. They looked like little babies, yet Issaic could feel the power brimming in each of them. One was blue, one red, and another yellow. The pokemon resembled some of the statues he had seen in the other room. They were crawling over each other, trying to pin one another down. They didnt even notice when Issaic walked over to the old woman.

"What are these pokemon?" Issaic asked the woman curiously.

She continued watching the pokemon as if Issaic didnt even ask the question.

"Lying here are the offspring of the legendary beast pokemon. Suicune, Entei, and Raikou... You must protect one of these pokemon with your life and keep it from being used for evil of any kind."

Issaic absorbed what the woman was saying before saying anything.

"My life huh...?"

Issaic watched as the red pokemon, Entei, playfully bit the blue one on the ear. Issaic bent over to let the pokemon know was there, and they instantly jumped on him. They licked his face, and playfully bit him.

"Ahh, stop that!" Issaic said laughing. Issaic got back up and looked at each pokemon.

"Entei, Suicune, Raikou..."

Issaic thought hard about his decision before finally deciding.

"Entei.."

The old woman looked at the pokemon, then looked back up at Issaic.

"Interesting choice trainer..."

The old woman reached into her pocket and pulled out an extremely cool looking pokeball. It was pokeball designed in shape, but had a flame design all around it. Engraved in the middle, where the button was supposed to be, was a maginificent red ruby. The woman gently grabbed Issaics hand and he didnt resist. She then put the ball in his hand.

"Now capture your partner.."

Issaic firmly grasped the ball and gently tapped the confused red pokemon on the nose. For a second, it had a knowing look on its face. It was then absorbed into the pokeball. The other pokemon looked around in confusion, but then went back to playing.

"It's time to send you back. It is now too late to return to the path you once had. Evil forces lurk.. Don't let a legend die..."

Issaic was once again confused by the old womans words. She stared into his eyes and suddenly, he couldnt move, breath, or even speak.

"What's going on!?" Issaic thought to himself, panicing. Suddenly, he collapsed on the ground.

"And so your journey begins.. Be careful..."

If you can do any of these, show me proof in a pm or post it here.

~Good luck.

5th >.> And thank you! Im not hacking for fame, i'm hacking because a lot of hacks just dont seem to finish. They just stop mid-hack and say "NEW HACK" If I can get this done, and people enjoy the hack... Then i've done something right /End speech >.>

[Dry]

excuse me for asking but what percentage of this hack is complete?
i am ok with scripting hacking not rlly great but learn fast would appreciate if you took me onboard or atleast show'd me how to get better at scripting/hacking in general so then i can become part of your hack teams in the future..
also the mapping appears to be dodgy below the tower (tallest building) the base, the cave with water the secound and higher "shelf" of rock on the left hand side last the second rock shelf in the corners.
i know there little things but you said you wanted to be able to make a complete hack so its sorta advice i spose

That's what I usually do. Putting stuff starting with Capital Letters which are not really needed...

And also, did you take my advice on correcting that mistake?

[psychicboy]

Could someone test my current beta and tell me if its too hard/easy?

[Chaos190]

I will do it psychicboy
I will beta test for you

[psychicboy]

You... Are... Awesome :D Should I add you to the beta tester list, or is this a one time thing ?

Add me I have some what a good amount of time for beta testing

[psychicboy]

Great :D Just tell me when you've played, and tell me how it is.

[Chaos190]

ok I will let you know

[Chaos190]

Interesting so far
I got raikou as partner not really hard yet

[Sarcastic Prince]

I am currently playing your Beta.
I don't really think it's a good idea to have a Legendary as a Starter Pokemon...
In the dream, you should make the Legendary Dogs you choose appear later in the Game...

That'll make the plot even more interesting...

And one more thing... this Hack has quite a lot of Grammar Mistakes and stuff...
In the first town and including the dream there are over 30 Grammar Mistakes...
Try improving your Grammar later when I post them...

Edit: Ugh... too many spelling and Grammar Mistakes.... I am tired of Screen Capturing every one of them...

So now, I'll report all of them so make sure you correct them...

Spoiler:

It should be "I'll" not "i'll".

The word "when" ran outta the box.

Spoiler:

You should add a period.


It should be "I'll" not "i'll".


It should be "That's", not "thats".


It should be "What's up, dad?", instead of "Whats up dad?".


It should be "it's" instead of "its".


Again, it should be "what's" instead of "whats".


It should be "you're" instead of "your".


I'll correct the whole sentence.

Dad: Hey, Player, you should rest a bit, as it's dangerous out there.


Again, I'll correct the whole sentence.

Player: It's ok, dad. I'll visit. =)


It should be "That's" instead of "Thats"


It should be: What's your name?


"Because" is spelt wrong.


It should be: Sorry, Player. I can't let you go through until you have a Pokedex.


There are no Grammar Mistakes in this one, but... after I read that signpost, the the box "follows" me as I walk. There are a lot of these kind of similar glitches in your Hack.


It should be: Gary's already gone.


It should be: There's never a dull moment here. This place is a good place to learn stuff. =D


It should be: I love working with the Prof.


It should be: There's always something to learn here.


The word "Wrong" went outta the box.


It should be "I'll" instead of "i'll".


You should aadd "...." after "Ummmm".


It should be: Fisherman: The fish will come to ya eventually.


The Rival doesn't leave properly.


Doesn't make sense.


You should add a period.


"Library" is spelt wrong.


It should "Don't" not "Dont"


It should be: Bug Pokemon evolve quickly, so they are weaker than most Pokemon.


It should be: Hey kid! I noticed that you don't any Fishing Rods.


It should be "That's", not "Thats".


You should add a Period.


It should be: I've taken this challenge before, and I couldn't even get past the second floor...


It should be: Player: Ehh, it's pretty hard because I'm not that patient...


It should be "I'm", not "Im".


It should be: Wow, Player. You're a natural at battling! =0


It should be "I've" not "Ive".


It should be "I'm" not "Im".


It should be "You're", not "Your".


It should be "You're", not "Your".
And the building has tile errors.


It should be "It's" not "Its".


It should be "Don't", not "Dont".


It should be "What's", not "Whats".


It should be "It's", not "Its".


It should be "It's", not "Its".


It should be "You're", not "Your".


It should be "That's", not "Thats".


It should be "I'll", not "ill".


It should be "I'll", not "ill".


It should be: Player hugs the Prof.


It should be: Well, Player. I know that you're a grown-up now.


"Thankyou" should seperated as "Thank you".


It should be "I'd", not "Id".


It should be "I'm", not "i'm".


It should be "I've", not "Ive".

Ahh finally. All glitches on how far I've went to are reported.
Please take my advice and improve the Hack with better Grammar.

[psychicboy]

Honestly it depends on what you do with the legendaries. Of course having a legendary as a starter means you would have to have slightly harder and more interesting gameplay. I have alot planned for this hack :D As for the grammar, fixing plausible mistakes now. Edit: Whoa, those are alot of errors *.*

[Sarcastic Prince]

Still, I don't think that having a Legendary Pokemon as a starter is a good idea.
Having you to use a Master Ball to catch a Pokemon in the 1st cave you will go to will be better.

What, having a Legendary as a starter DOES NOT mean you have slightly harder gameplay. It just won't work, as it will actually make the game quite easier, regardless.

[Jhonnyduffboy]

I like the ideas of this game, i recommend getting new tiles and pallets to make it look more nice, also the maps need some work. But overall i like this hack.

Now tell me, why won't this work? I assure you, it will not make the game any easier than your average pokemon game. Well those are bad to compare to because its nearly impossible to lose unless your terrible, had bad luck, in the battle frontier, or your fighting the elite four. I'm going to assume you haven't even played the beta yet.. So seriously, how would you know if its easy or not? >.> Maybe its just the fact that legendary as starter equals no no. I just happen to think other-wise...

No, I haven't played the beta, but listen for a sec, people will take the legendary, and trust me, people make hard hacks have normal starters, as it makes them even harder. Legendaries make the game easier due to their stats being higher than other pokemon. If you edited this stat issue, then OK, it could work, but as they have high stats (and why most are Ubers), eventually the game will get easier. Name 3 successful well known hacks that had a Legendary Starter.

I can't name any simply because I haven't seen any But something you said there has captured my attention... How would I go about changing base stats?
