Um... no. In the games she's a schoolgirl. In the anime, she's a very young teacher, but in the games she's literally a student.

Anyway, with PlanetDev going down a lot recently and my having 12 exams in the course of 5 days next week, progress is a little slow, but we're still working. Don't panic

[starterra]

hey, I'd love to help out. I suck terribly at actually making a game (so far), but I can help with storyline and some spriting if you need it.

[Peeky Chew]

When are you going to fix the tile errors on the first page?

[NikNaks]

They're fixed in-game, but we've changed so many things since then it'd be pointless to recreate them now. We will, hopefully, have some screens of Dinso to show soon, instead.

[DjGopher]

I saw your topic on smogon and was wondering if I could help as a spriter.
I have some examples of my sprites over there..
This looks very promising

It will be released when it's ready.
I don't think it's against to rules to ask for release dates(it actually probably is) but it can be annoying for the makers.

[melosfox]

This looks spectacular! Will all 386 Pokemon be available?

["defno']

I think this is what we'll be using for the final evo of the armored beetle

theres 493 pokemon up to diamond and pearl. 386 was back in the ruby/sapphire/emerald days. there are gen 4 pokemon in one screenshot of the game, so i assume there'll be all 493, or at least more than 386.

[Serris]

Why would there have to be more than 386? To be honest, it would not need to include all the pokémon. Even today's current games don't have all pokémon in it, one method to get them all in one game is trading, basically. This could just only have the region's pokédex. It wouldn't need to involve all 493. that's just me though.

But hey guys, I'm still on hiatus, I just thought I'd check up on our progress. Letting you know the music is going fine, even though I haven't kept up to date on what's going on, and I'm slowly working on the Mawile evolution I have planned for this game.

just thought you guys needed an update from me~

oops, my bad. made that comment pretty late at night haha. all i meant to reply to was correcting the 386 to 493 lol. didnt mean to say your game like absolutely obviously had all 493, cuz i dont really plan on mine having all of em either, plus i have fakemon too, so the dex would be ridiculous.

[lx_theo]

I believe we're aiming for around 40 fakemon, for the sake of not overwhelming anyone and keeping priority on the rest of the game's features. These do include 9 of them being new starters.

[NikNaks]

Sorry for the lack of response, but the team seem to have got that pretty much right. Also, good to hear from you, Serris! Drop me a message on MSN if you catch me.

We're still working, and in the next few days we should hopefully be able to show off our new menu system in action! Fingers crossed!

Oh, and if you didn't notice our post in the Team Recruitment thread, please do check it out!

[YELL0W]

I've been watching the development of this game and I love it and I can't wait until it's released Because I love the graphics and the Tiles and the Sprites Keep on going Niknaks and the rest of the team.
Good Luck with the Game!

[NikNaks]

Thanks for the support, YELL0W!

Now, for some news! Hurrah! Well, as you may have noticed from my signature, and that of my team-mates, we're revealing a small amount of our new plot. The theme is Faith. We'll reveal more in due course. For now, feel free to guess and speculate...

Faith is part of thinking. Part of feeling.
It's part of being alive.

["defno']

Yup! Faith...
Anywho, we'll be releasing something to show you guys hopefully soon.

[Zenith95s]

The graphics are great! The new interface is soo cool!
I like the new sprites made for Roxanne, Brawly and Flannery!
It's so great that I subscribed this thread...:D

[Peeky Chew]

Will the new part of the story being revealed be part of the Hoenn or Dinso region part of the game? And I fixed the tile errors on the front page:

To answer your question: Although any actual details on the story are secret at the moment, I can say that it will take place in both regions at different points in the game.

[Rhy-rhy]

This looks great, hopefully there will be more updates soon :D

[NikNaks]

For those of you who are still following this thread, listen up! We'll soon be moving across to the showcase, hopefully within a fortnight, so, to whet your appetite, here's a teaser. Well, it's more a teaser of a teaser of a teaser. But anyway, try to work out what it is!



Thrilling, right? All will be revealed soon...

[brokenxnote]

A whole 20 days to find out what's in the magic black box of wonder and doom? You cruel, cruel child ;_; lmao. Congrats on making the progress necessary to move on up to the Showcase.

[amassenburg]

I cant wait to play it!!
ive been wanting to get back to hoenn but the original game's graphics sucked so i held off...

(might have been asked)
are you gonna have the Battle frontier in this too?

And you think your gonna have pokemon follow you in the game??

Forgive me if I'm too forward. What was the point of that teaser? If I'm not mistaken that's the second teaser you've released. Where is the actually updates? Your "black box" as someone else called it isn't a teaser at all its just a pic with nothing to keep people guessing.

It has been asked before, but I'll add it to an FAQ when we move across. We'll be having a frontier of sorts, but it might be in a different place and might have different games, depending on scripting.

And we're undecided on the second part.

Fair play, although it did come across as a little rude. The point of this teaser is just to bump the thread and make people aware that we're still running. Our actual updates will come over the course of one week once we've moved to the showcase, culminating in a big one on day seven. I don't want to give away too much, so the teasers have been pretty strange and vague, and I appreciate that. Hope that answers your concern.
