FireRed hack: Pokémon: Legend of Thunder edition!

Pokémon: Legend of Thunder!

Intro

Hi! It's PokéHackerOmega here presenting my 100% original hack, Pokemon: Legend of Thunder.
How did this hack come about? Well, when I first joined the PokéCommunity, I was amazed by
ROM Hacking. Alas, after awhile I got bored of seeing lame hacks like countless Silver
remakes and hacks with virtually no creativity. Then I was inspired to make my own hack with
a 100% new storyline. After about 3 days of mapping, scripting and tweaking, I have a fair
bit done. 3 new maps and a few new events, so I thought now would be a good time to share my
progress with the public.

Storyline

You and your family live in Electra Town, a small mountain-foot village, where your dad is
the proffesor. According to myths, the gaurdian Pokémon of Electra Town is Raikou. The town
has a shrine to honor Raikou. Within the shrine is a statue of Raikou, and a mysterious orb.
One day you decide to visit the shrine. You notice something strange about it today. Then
you notice that the orb is missing! You rush to your dads lab to tell him. Then your dad
gives you an Eevee and you start on your journey to retrieve the orb.

After rethinking it, I have decided, I will release Beta versions. But don't expect them to come super fast. ;-)

 

[destinedjagold]

so ya decided to put it up! good for you!

Anyways, the hack's very great so far. Tiles are nice, but the mountain looks weird :\ Oh well...

And wow, nice! Eevee as our starter! Cute =3

Wishing the best of luck~

Spoiler:

And wow, a Raikou shrine! Neat! I'm getting too excited! :D

 

[Mew88]

This looks pretty good so far, tiles are nice and the trees are fantastic! Storyline seems interesting, i will be keeping an eye on this! Maybe you could put like a cut tree or rock smashable rock at a point for getting onto the mountain to put something special there seeing as it is protected by raikou:P

The only thing i dont like is the lab, dont know why i just never like that tile:P

Anyways keep up the good work, hope you dont give up on this.

 

[master pokemon]

will... this hack is a gooD one

and i like the map

but ... is it a hack of fire red or leaf green ?

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

It's firered. And also thanks for all the positive feedback! :)

Sorry about that mountain, the border was going wacky and I had to try to fix it. That will be fixed in later versionss. :)

Hmmm... Not bad, the game looks fine from the start, but I'm more happy with that storyline. Maybe with some more time the mapping will be even better (you'd need to put some more new tiles), and this goes also for the scripting (have you noticed some of your texts barely fit inside the box?)

The idea of Eevee as a starter may not be too original, but, since Eevee is quite versatile, I guess a lot of people will be happy with the idea.

Well, hope you keep it up!

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

Yeah, I'm going to redo the first route.

 

[Binary]

This looks like a very good hack, nice work so far, and the rombase you used is very suitable. Wow a raikou shrine, that sounds good.

[pkmnmaster69]

The storyline seems very impressive it also seems like rakou is the main legendary i cant wait to play the game and the orb was a impressive idea

Good luck!

 

[Renyui!]

woah man, this a pretty sweet hack!
and a raikou shrine? how did u know he was my favourite legendary?
hopin' to see some vids

 

[Yingxue]

This looks like it might be a neat hack. :D

 

[Frostbite]

I'm absolutely in love with the thread presentation.

I also like how your features and various things throughout the thread are worded.

You are so original!

:D

Thanks for stealing my overall format ;>>

 

[Superroshan]

Looks good! Can't wait to play it:). Eevee as a starter and raiku thats a main legendary pokemon is great! Keep it up:).

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

EDIT: Right now i'm going through and fixing all the bugs, apparently I killed my ROM really bad. I went and fixed The Electra Town border. Now I need to remap Route 501.

 

[Heart's Soul]

Err... Not to be rude or anything, but it doesn't look like a promising hack... The Eevee starter is the only thing I like, although he can't be Umbreon or Espeon, only R/S/E can do that. Everybody remember that.

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

Well, I'm planning on letting Eevee evolve into Leafeon and Glaceon.

Aww well, you can't please everybody in the world.

 

[Lady Berlitz]

Hey, PHO. (Hm that's the website too...)
I can help out with sprites. (Overworlds, trainers, everything pretty much)

The game looks pretty good... good luck!

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

Bad news, I killed my ROM, and then my back up... Now I need to restart everything...
(It's not that bad because I saved the scripts on my computer and I was going to remap most of it anyways.)

 

[zel 2.0]

Oh, well. You were starting, so just learn from the mistake and keep many MANY backups close by :)

Good luck on the restart, hope you can reach the same level soon (and improve it, if you can ;))

 

[PlatinumDawnFtw]

Yeah, I'm planning on making tons better this time around.
