yea like in shiny gold they all evolve another way. like onix evolves at lvl 40, esp/umbreon with sun/moon stone etc..
also ckret after you beat the marowak in the tower theres a guy on the bottom left of the floor with nothing to say lol. just thpought id point it out ;P
Pardon? I never said that the other Pokémon would be evolving those ways--because they aren't. Onix will not be evolving at level 40, and Espeon and Umbreon do not evolve with the Sun and Moon Stones. I figure you're trying to compare ToxicPurple to Shiny Gold by describing how they evolve in that hack, but it's not very clear that you're just doing a comparison and not giving examples of how they evolve in ToxicPurple. But if you're saying that that's how they evolve in this hack, then that's completely wrong. I already described how trade evolutions will work earlier in the thread, and while I didn't describe Espeon and Umbreon, they evolve in a similar way.
And yeah, I noticed after I posted the alpha that I'd left off the script for that guy. It'll be fixed by the next alpha. (I'd actually had it written, but forgot to compile it. :P)
Hey, I don't know if this has already been asked or explained, but here goes.
Are Pokemon like Haunter, Gravaler, Machoke, Kadabra, Paliwhirl, and others be able to evolve with just an item? Like if you give a Paliwhirl a Kings Rock, it would evolve into Politoad. Or Onix and Metal Coat. I just want to point this out because some people love those evolved forms, (I love Politoad) and I don't know how many Pokemon from Kanto, Johto and Hoenn you're going to put in this game. So if you're not going to put a lot in, you could at least include the evolved forms.
It's just a suggestion, with insite on my limeted knowlege about what you're planning. But I would like to know. And again, sorry if this has been explained before.
Yep, they all evolve without trading. And this game will include every Kanto and Johto Pokémon, including event legendaries, plus a handful of Hoenn Pokémon but (probably) not all of them.
Trade evolution Pokémon will evolve through the use of an item called PokéToaster, a Team Rocket invention you get in the Johto arc. It's called a PokéToaster because that's basically what it does to your Pokémon. Because Team Rocket isn't patient enough to get their Pokémon to evolve the right way, Pokémon that are difficult to get to evolve (essentially, all trade evolution Pokémon) will instead be forced to evolve with the PokéToaster. It looks basically like an evil microwave; you stick your Poké Ball inside, turn it on, and the Poké Ball with Pokémon inside is bombarded with high-energy radiation until it's forced to evolve. There's a warning on the side reminding trainers to take their Poké Balls out of the machine before they melt. :P It releases so much energy that a PokéToaster fries its own wiring when it's used, so they're one use only and pretty expensive. (What did you expect from Team Rocket? They're vicious, brutal trainers. :P) It's an offshoot of their research into forced evolution, and kind of a compacted version of the radio waves that they use at the Lake of Rage to evolve Magikarp into Gyarados, which is why it's about that time that you first get a chance to buy them.
In game, it acts like an evolutionary stone: click it in your inventory, click "use," use it on a Pokémon. It'll work on all trade evolution Pokémon like Haunter, Kadabra, etc., and even on Pokémon that would normally need a held item, like Politoed w/ King's Rock or Onyx w/ Metal Coat. Also, I'm replacing the Moon Stone with the PokéToaster--since it's a lot easier for me to rename an evolutionary stone than try to convince a new item to act like a stone--so all Pokémon that previously evolved by Moon Stone will be classified "difficult to evolve" by Team Rocket and made compatible with the PokéToaster. Eevee will be changed so that it evolves into Espeon through happiness at any time of day (since it's pretty much perpetually daytime in FireRed), and the PokéToaster will evolve it into Umbreon.
As to which other generation Pokémon will be included: like I said, all Kanto and Johto Pokémon will be available. Some will be available through theft only, so you'll want to keep an open slot in your party in case you're challenged to a battle with someone with a stealable Pokémon that you might not be able to get anywhere else. No guarantees on which Hoenn Pokémon will be included yet, but at a bare minimum there'll be the Gen III baby Pokémon (Wynaut and Azurill, because the incense and a day care center will be made available), Vibrava, and Deoxys. Haven't decided on any others yet, but there'll probably be some more.
