Let me explain:Zekrom(main legendarie)=black.
pokémon Black=copyright Nintendo, meaning:black=me being sued.
darkblack=nintendo and me
Besides, it's better than lightblack.

wasn't there a hack called pokemon black before the official black and white were released? if so, then they stole the name, but we couldn't do anything about it because if they find out about all the people hacking their games, we could get into some trouble no?

If GameFreak stole the name then that would mean they come on to Pokecommunity, and in that case Pokecommunity would've had to be closed down probably.

Anyway R0bert, this is looking pretty nice so far, although the mapping could definitely be doing with some work, and that grass tile has got to go. Maybe using HGSS styled grass? I was using those same tiles ages ago in I/S and HGSS styled grass worked out a lot better. Title screen is decent, but maybe a smaller/better font? More scripts please. And the story...is one big fail. Sorry, but honestly, you and your friend just randomly decide one day to become Pokemon Trainers? Guy randomly gives you a Pokemon? Could be doing with a lot of work. Btw I know where your Mother is. For the features, you've said RTC and Seasons. Ok, with that smexy new tool seasons are easy, but for the RTC, what are you really going to do with it? RTC imo is better when it is used for time-based events, however you say you cannot script. For the no Pokedex...just don't set the flag. And the whole sexism thing, why not just give the player a choice of two different outfits? Anyway, hope to see some more of this soon

Yeah...story needs some a lot of work.
I can't script,true.wanna script for me?
ass for the grass,I used it to begin with,but it takes too much space in the 1st tileset,the animations will look crappy and it takes too much time to map with it.
If you don't have a pokedex,what will happen when you catch a pokémon?
outfits,good idea,but how do you edit the multichoice?(Boy/girl)
And you shall see more.I'm inserting some very nice tiles right now,I can post some screenies tomorrow.
BTW,you don't know where my mom is.

Yup.
Uhh...uhh...I can't script.
I have an animation for it that looks fine. I could PM you it if you want. But either way, good looking grass that takes up lots of room > bad looking grass that doesn't take up much.
Good point. Why not just give the player a Pokedex then? Since it is one of the most important parts of Pokemon. Or just change the text so that instead of saying the Pokemon's data was recorded in the Pokedex, it just says something like "Here is some info on Pikablu".
Just change the text.
:D
Oh trust me. I do

Edit: My 200th post was in your thread. Lucky you.

...
true, but 'bad looking' grass that still fits in my tileset>good looking grass that doesn't.But I'll fink about it,so yeah,PM me please.
Great idea!(seriously?Pikablu?(at least use something original,like poopip.)
XD
No you don't,only Minkey the Monk Mankey knows :/
Lucky me!(In your face,Justin Bieber!)

You bloody sexist
Why not being female
I am a girl so playing the girl sprite
I don't understand why you'd go with something as bugging as that
But it's your hack
Best of luck with it

[Nintendork15]

After looking a bit closer... this hack seems farmaliar have you ever posted this before ??

Yeah,on PHO (why did you ninja me?)

[Nintendork15]

Ah!
That's probally where I have seen it. :'3

[dark_ho-oh]

Woah!
how come i didn't see this hack?
Finally brought this hack out to the community when the Legacy shut down, eh?

[r0bert]

Gigantalicous update!
Most of the gym leader OW sprites are done,look down.


Also,progress will be slow.It will be there,but slow.
Exams,you know.

[Trifindo]

I love the cover, it's great.
The tiles are good but can improve the maps.
I think you're future, good luck.: D

[r0bert]

WHAZAA?
I haven't been doing much (hacking) lately, that's gonna change.(only the hacking part, mom).
UPDATE.
I'm re-starting the hack. from scratch.

Spoiler:

note: the overworlds haven't been changed yet. And nothing has been scripted

[[I]-Hac*ker.]

Looking good man, if I can help out, just say so. Looking forward to playing it

[r0bert]

MEET BRIAN AND MELLISA.

Brian: the hero's best friend, he's the kind of guy that acts before he thinks,mellisa's twin brother. Can't stand still.
Mellisa: a very quiet and serene girl, but when angered, scary, she thinks before doing. Brian's twin sister.
and thanks for the scripts, really nice.
