Pokemon Forest Green

[Final Destination]

I hope this hack actually STRIVES this time. I have quitted EVERY hack I've done. I think I can do it now. So without further ado, I present to you....

POKéMON Forest Green

ROM Base: PKMN Ruby
Hacks Main Legendary: Celebi, Darkrai

Plot:

50 years ago, in an unknown reigon, a storm was brewing, called the DARK STORM. Darkrai, the legend of darkness, came out. Luckilly, Celebi, from the past, came and sent Darkrai through a time journey. Everyone was thankful.

25 years later, Darkrai arrives, sucking everything (and one) into it's Dark Void. Diagla took care of it with a mighty Roar - of - Time.

Present, it comes to your reigon, sucking up everything (and one) again. This time, it's NOT the evil teams, except for one. Team 'Void, as they are called. They want to use the Dark Crystal (from PR2) and harness the power, thus making Darkrai their's.

You are a 12 yr old boy or girl in the Greentops reigon, in the town of Forresto Town.
Stop, catch, battle and explore as you try to find Celebi and defeat Team 'Void and Darkrai! If not, darkness can expand all over the reigon, causing bad things (like voids ) popping up, because Team Void has the Dark Crystal!

Will you stop Darkrai and Team 'Void or be sucked in into the void?

This looks like a nice hack.Don't quit this!

[Final Destination]

I'm going to put the Notched - Ear Pichu in my hack

[Nintendork15]

Sounds really good
pm me if you want anyhelp

[Final Destination]

I have put in Notched Ear Pichu! It will be very rare, maybe in a SBPE, (Special Beta Pokemon Event) at Level 30. I'm changing to FR so I can write Wild PKMN scripts.

Cities/Towns/Routes/Others

Spoiler:

Forresto Town - The town where the Hero/Heroine lives in. However, it is a bustling with activity.

Spoiler:

Ronamo City: The seaside city. As I haven't told you, this reigon is close to Johto, particulary Olivine City. This town hustles and bustles though!
(Inside Ronamo City: Ronamo Beach!)
Dragoton City: The city of Dragons. This City holds your first Gym Battle, has a Muesem and a Day-Care Center.
Eletrivco Town: The city with a Power Plant, that gives off the eletricty for the whole reigon. However, the Gym Leader is inside that power plant!
Reeano Town: A very calm town with ponds around the town. It has a Hot Spring too! Your third Gym Battle is here
Violetta City: A city with towers far and wide. One, howver, is the Violetta Pokemon Funeral Tower. Pokemon that have passed away are buried there.
Grawan City: Nice buildings hide other nice buildings. This is a very confusing maze, like as if it is the Gym Leaders Gym. In fact, it is! There are also regular houses that have people inside.
Takamao Town: The shopping center of the Region. This is where your fourth gym badge is at. Buy stuff, though, too!
Icelan City: A city in a cave! Your fifth badge is here. Be careful walking, though, because it is slippery!

I used it's Notched Ear on Pikachu, making a Notched Ear Pikachu. I did that with Pichu, too.

[<>*Ralts*<>]

Man, this hack sounds promising! Can't wait for more uppies!

[Final Destination]

Ok! Next update will include ALOT of things.......and I will try to keep this alive. I need help, though!

I'll make a rough map of the reigon!

STORY
The story is quite nice, but I would suggest giving more important characters. A must (at least for me) is developing back story. WHY do you want to go and fight team Void? WHY is darkrai attacking?
The main thing I hated about pokemon GRBY... No reason really to fight team rocket, except for that they just happened to be there.
Give more reason than just (O well I decided to just save the world :D)
Were you hired? Did they do something very personal to you? Did they attack you? Did they kidnap your friend? Even if it is just a random decision to save the world, what is your motivation for saving it?
SPRITES
NICE spriting for the notched ear pichu. I still dont know how to do backsprites.....
Region Stuff...
Name is...well not that good IMO. And the first city I do not think is that creative either. Go with tree names from certain climates or something like that. If there is an ice Town, it could be like Taiga Village and stuff like that...



Now that most of my review is done....to other stuff!

I might be able to make some user bars.....but thats about all. If you need story help you can PM me and I will try to help but I am normally REALLY busy with Science Olympiad....

I would do mapping because this is the most intresting hack I have seen in the scrapbox for a while, but once again too busy.

Hack looks nice, the names could use some work and you could post more story, but thats about all I have to say for now. I look forward to the release of a beta :D

[558122_DG]

awwww....you replaced treeko

if u wanna insert new pokemon it's wise if you take a look at how to do it WITHOUT replacing others

[Final Destination]

I'll try with the empty spots.
(They'res a reason why you have to replace others. Explore, and you'll find out.

[Final Destination]

*Needs Help!* HELP!!!!! Inquire Here! I'm making the maps, scrpits and whatnot now. Should I make a 2nd game named "Pokemon Blazing Red?" or something else?

yeah u should make one! i say u should lol

[giradialkia]

Dear me...
My friend, you should focus on getting this hack out of the scrapbox and into Progressing Hacks. Never mind about another hack, think about that when you've finished this one- whether or not a sequel is appropriate. Right now, you've just over a month to get this hack moved, otherwise it'll be deleted with the Scrapbox.
And watch your sprite insertion. They're fine mostly, but the Cyndaquil backsprite is clearly sliced in half, which doesn't look very good. Try to resize it, then re-insert it. Failing that, use the default Cyndaquil backsprite.
Good luck. I hope you get enough done to make it to Progressing Hacks.

Thanks. I VMed Christos about it.

Sprite Updates/Screenshots

[dragonshine]

Are the yellow sprites final? because I made some sprites intending on making my own hack but it wasnt working right

They 100% Custom PM Me If You Want To See Em

EDIT:
I Also Got A HeartGold/SoulSilver Templated Region Map n_n

[Final Destination]

I need HELP! I'm doing Grasskon Bch. Tho

[Congratulations, I Hate You]

Well, I think you really should work on those maps. In those few screenies I saw a few tile errors, and just the maps don't look good. (sorry >.<). I'm not sure who has a guide on PC, but there a few mapping guides, to make them look better in general, I suggest you take a look at that.

The only other complaint is that the Cyndiquil backsprite is sliced =/ I'm not very good with that kind of thing, but I suggest using the original backsprite instead of that.
