Could perhaps in this game, legendaries be bred? But make them have extremely long hatching times? Since this game is so big, make them as long as an entire walk by foot around all the areas. It would take forever, and only determined breeders would probably raise them. Just a suggestion though.
Also, you had mentioned that the level cap for the first area is level 20, which means it must take an extremely long time to level up. Maybe when you travel to johto, the new starters could have accelerated leveling until 20.
the legendary idea is a good idea, but maybe not for some pokemon like dialga, palkia, arceus, ect... But some of the other legendaries have been mentioned to have be or have been part of a once common species.
No, what that means is that any pokemon that you had in your team in a different region will not obey you if you go to the jhoto region, until you have enough gym badges. It is a rather confusing system to explain, but it actually makes alot of sense
I just looked over the maps in the first post and I can't see myself playing this game. The scale just turns me off completely.
I know this sense of scale is your goal, but the while maps look impressive at first glance, they really aren't.
Pallet town is so bare, plain and un-interesting.
Route 1 seemed okay when I first looked at it but the little one tile size patches of the paths are actually annoying me looking at them now.
Route 2 has a few tree errors that I'm sure have been fixed but there is so much wasted space on this map and way to big.
Route 3 is worse then pallet town and I would not be able to tell where I am in the games resolution.
These maps look impressive as images, but in gameplay they will be a nightmare. WAAAAY to big and as I said above, will be a nightmare to tell where you are unless you are looking at the map file as an image. If you had some crazy form of transport (a bloody jetpack would be needed- a bike wouldn't do ha) that can be accessed at the press of a button it might be a bit bearable.
I can only see fan boys of you and the game to play this, but I can see most users not wasting time with it. You would need so much free time to invest to get into this game and I think that judging by the 4 maps I've seen, that's asking for too much free time of the general audience here.

so when will this game actually take off??
i mean how far along is it and when will the beta be out???
i think that instead of slowly completeing a hacked game.. ppl shud just do the entire game if possible to the point where yu only beat the gym leaders and go thru it real quick but THEN start adding little things like items at certain places.. editing the text,, inserting people.. etc.. that way ppl will still b able to play the game even tho its not finished ( by that i mean the little things arent finished...)
Then you obviously haven't noticed the 120+ pages of positive comments
