Pokémon Amethyst

[Wichu]

How many Pokemon will Amethyst have? Will it have all 493 plus fakes, or some condensed number?

Nope, I'm not going to make every single Pokémon catchable. There will probably be either 200 or 250 in the regional Pokédex. However, there will be methods of obtaining the unobtainable Pokémon, which I'm not going to go into now.

That sounds like an insane amount of work. I would just keep the number of Pokémon low to keep things simple.

Also, if you're interested, I have a renumbered national dex that accounts for evolutions found in later generations. Here's a spreadsheet with an early version of my work: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pjuW0njaN1SmoXddNg5EfRA

Ignore the type and ability columns. Those were just me brainstorming.

Nice new building tiles.
And a Q:
How are you going to blend the different-colored grasses in Route 2 and the town before it?

Not 200 new Pokémon; 200 Pokémon in total, including old ones. And thanks for the dex, but I'm keeping the numbers the same. I will probably have a second mode for the National dex with a similar concept, though (think G/S/C).

I'm assuming you mean Route 58.

That enough explanation? :P

Sure it is :)
And thank you for the screenshot :P
I really like the tiles :3

Thanks for the feedback.
Most of you seem to like my tiles. Here's a small challenge; in the first post, Kyledove is credited for some tiles. First person to spot Kyle's tiles (it rhymes?) wins.

Anyway, I'd just like to announce a (rather awesome) breakthrough. Do you remember the Pokédex script I showed a few months ago, and how I was complaining that it was really slow? I've rewritten it, and managed to achieve perfect framerate just by making it a standalone class instead of a subclass of Sprite_Window. Now I just need to rearrange the elements to fit the D/P screen size.

Ummm...Would his tiles happen to be the mossy looking rocks/mountains with what seem to be flowers on them? As well as the flowers seen in some of the screens? They would there by be the base of your tiles?

The flowers are based on the D/P flowers and the FR/LG ones. Kyledove based his on the D/P ones too; however, the flower tiles in the screens are mine. Keep guessing!

EDIT: By the way, you can search any screenshots, not just the ones in the first post.

 

[Lorem Ipsum]

The bushes are Kyledove's bushes. Like the small, spherical ones.

Nope, they're edits of FR/LG's. Keep guessing!

Oh, and I've got the regional dex to work, and written a script which makes it easier to create a regional dex :)

 

[Atomic Reactor]

is it uh... the water edges?
Kyledoves right?

 

[Wichu]

Nope, they're heavy edits of G/S/C's. You're getting closer...

 

[Atomic Reactor]

the water itself?
lol. I can't really see anything else that we havn't guessed.

 

[<~F.M.P~>]

I'm just gonna guess the trees. They look thicker at the bottom. Sort of like Kyledoves. FR/LG's had a thin trunk so that's my guess =\

 

[Wichu]

the water itself?
lol. I can't really see anything else that we havn't guessed.

Nobody guessed the ground, trees, or buildings...
But yes, it is the water. It's the only tile which is copied from any of Kyledove's tilesets, even though it's just a single shade of blue. I'm using a few more of his tiles, but I haven't taken screenshots containing them yet.
I'm actually surprised nobody said the trees; I suppose most people here are familiar with which trees he's done, though.

EDIT: Or not; Flood posted while I was replying :P

 

[Atomic Reactor]

lol. well, i thought we were talking just about that screenshot above.
That grass kinda looks like kyledoves, is it?

 

[Wichu]

Nope, it's just the water. You can stop looking now; there's no other Kyledove tiles in the screens :P

 

[Crosell]

You guys are talking about kyledove to much -,-
All the tiles I see are almost the same pallete as kyledove's, not a big deal.
So logical that some tiles might look like his, doesn't mean those are his haha.

Also I like your tiles, it's a great style for any pokemon game, also everything is mixed.
Like trees, not only one boring colour, there more kind of colours in that screenshot above.
Thats really attractive for a pokemon game..
