I really like the colour of those trees, I think they're stunning! I also like how you create a more living world, with the Sunkerns and Kabuto's. Looking forward to try out this hack!
Thank you :3 The palette has been tweaked slightly since the original, after a few people thought it was too dark - so this was the (lovely) compromise! Sunkern and Kabuto (and Swellow) oh my! I intend to use a few lesser-known pokemon and giving them a new walk of life. Yes, Sunkern has a stat-boost.
Just showing off a bit more scripting. I'll be redoing the first post today as well~
Clearly not the entire script, there are movements and further text in between these screenshots.
I've decided to go with capitalising pokemon names, place names and item names. I won't be caps-ing the word pokemon, generally, nor character names.

Looking stunning! I really appreciate the flowers on this screenshot:
(don't know if they are new or if I didn't noticed them early. anyway they are really pretty)
It's really nice to see that you ported over to JPAN's engine. I'm planning to do the same with my hack, it must be a really tedious work but i think it's worth it :)

Thanks! They're new to this tileset, I like them a lot more than the shaking red ones - they're a bit more natural, less overwhelming and look quite nice as a little patch.

This looks very interesting. I'm curious about the Fae stones and how they will play into the game. How many Pokemon will be in this hack, just 386 or more?

Can't decide if 'the Rangers' or 'The Rangers' ;-; hmm hmm.
(Oh look I made a pretty letter screen)
Depends if they're called the "Rangers" or "The Rangers".
But it's looks great!!

I'd suggest 'the Rangers' - gives it a more cobbled-together feel, fitting for a post-apoc-esque setting, rather than acting like it were a long-standing heavily-organized force. You don't join "The Rangers, LLC" - you just join up with the miscellaneous folks tough enough to call themselves a 'Ranger.' Just my opinion on the kind of tone you may want to adopt.

Although I'm not a fan of the colours of the grass, I like the way your hack looks. The maps are decent and the scripting looks solid. You seem to have interesting ideas and I'm hoping the story you're planning is as interesting and mysterious as I'm expecting it to be after the hack's recent name change.
Thank you! :) I'm not entirely decided on my grass palette, it's the hardest one to balance since it's so dominant on the map - which is why I've opted for a rather plain, not-too-colourful grass palette for now.
Not much new, I've fiddled, inserted more (SECRET ;D) overworld sprites anddddd done some scripting.
See, see!

Thanks, Gio! :)
Little progress here and there, I have done a wee bit more scripting, started a few more graphical updates (new [!] emotes etc.) and started a mockup of the titlescreen.
SUBJECT TO CHANGE - NOT INSERTED
If anyone happens to be amazing at these things feel free to upstage me

UPDATE
Scripting for obtaining a partner-Pokémon is now complete! I say partner, rather than starter, as it's nowhere near your typical selection. This time, you must save Pokémon around Pewter City - eventually you'll get to pick one to keep with you!
I want to keep as much of it underwraps as possible - but one pokémon is well hidden, one is fairly obvious and encountering one is forced. Here is the last in that list:

So, out of the Pokemon we saved, we can only choose 1? What if the players chooses to save 6 and decides that the player likes all of them? What a tough decision it will be to pick one out of a cast! But, that's a great alternative than the usual choosing of one from a lab. I can't wait to see more! :D
TOUGH! ;D This way, you can actually check your pokemon's stats/abilities before getting stuck with it :P.
Some more scripting! The second is a bit more important than you might think, as it shows I have coloured the default messages to match the rest of my colour use.
Changes to Evolution
So! In my hack evolution will be changing slightly, with the addition of more evolution stones, this hack will be no exception. In case it is not yet clear, stones actually play a big roll in the story - so it's not really a surprise many Pokémon now evolve by them. I'll even explain it in the story.
Also, please be reassured that many Pokémon now have altered stats to reflect changes to their family/evolution.
Also, I'll be changing this post a lot - hence why I've made it look b-e-a-uuuuutiful.

Can you make an option (or a patch, perhaps) that has it without the type changes? I like it when there's no type changes, but if no that's okay, it's probably just me being picky. Good luck on your hack :)
