FireRed hack: Pokemon BurstMode

[pakelamko]

BURST MODE
Hack of: FireRed

INTRODUCTION:
Hello everyone. This is my first hack.
Some of the pokemons and trainers/characters here are inspired from
DIGIMON and ONE PIECE.
I might need on some parts especially in SCRIPTING.


FEATURES:
New Starters
New Region
New Villain
D/P Pokemons
D/P Moves
New Moves



STORY:
Region:

The Region of Konan
The Land of Myths and Legends

Region Info:
Welcome to Konan region, the land of myths and legends. it is located at the north of Kanto, Jhoto, and Hoenn and south of Sinnoh.

Legend:

"There were four legendary pokemons keeping the balance in this planet.

One is Moltres, The Vermilion Bird of the Sky, Protector of the East (Kanto).
Raikou, The Yellow Tiger of the Forest, Protector of the West (Jhoto).
The other one, Kyogre, The Cerulean Beast of the Sea, Protector of the South (Hoenn).
The last one, Dialga, The Azure Dragon of the Mountains, Protector of the North (Sinnoh).
These creatures are the reason why this world have seasons. Summer, Winter, Fall and Spring.

The other legend says that there exist a LEGENDARY DRAGON OF THE CENTER
it was guarded by the THREE GATE GURDIANS...

=UPDATE>

Kuuybi... Kappa... and Sunkwong..."

And that's where you enter. A 10 year old boy recieveing your first pokemon. Then your adventure begins. Collecting badges, battling trainers and catching pokemons. But one day, you got caught into trouble when you bumped on the two Baroque Grunts. They say their mission is capturing the legendary dragon of the center and take over the world. To do it, they must awaken the four legendary beasts, but this means breaking the balance of this world. Can you save the world?

[Poke_a_Dialga!]

[destinedjagold]

i like the water starter. it looks cute. =3
but I kinda dislike the fire starter, for it looks like a Torchic having no feathers on it's upper body. :\

but it's okay. :)

map 1 is really nice.
map 2 is a bit overcrowded...
map 3's mountain is a bit unlikeable. :\

but anyways, it's a cool hack.
keep it up~

 

[pakelamko]

BERFORE:

On that Chromagem City, the mountains still feel a bit awkward. Take a look at a few of the maps in the Map Rating thread that were made by more experienced mappers, such as Disturbed and Neti (both of whom won the communities' Rom Hacking Awards for Mapping). An example, made by Disturbed, is found within the spoiler below:

Spoiler:

Now, notice how the mountains are formed. They can sort of flow along the lines of the previous levels, but they never follow them exactly. Oftentimes, a good map shows the mountains wavering from close to the previous level, and 4~5 blocks (squares? I dunno what to call them :P) away. Also, notice how the mountains aren't really straight at all. This is one of the biggest turn-offs on a map; if the mountains are too straight, the map looks extremely boring to play on. To sum that up: Put a little more action into those mountains you have on there. That'll spice up the map, and make it look tremendously better.

Also, in all forms of mapping, you never really want anything to be symmetric. The trees and bushes around the Gym are really symmetric, which just kinda demotes the map a bit. The rock-thing on the mountain is the same with this.

Btw, don't ever use the maps Nintendo makes for reference. Those are usually distasteful. Instead, use other mapper's work to provide inspiration, basically.

--

Moving away from the mapping and onto the other parts..

The two moves you made have really creative names, and I rather like the effects as well.

--

The world map is quite nice, and seems to have plenty of cities, although the lower amount of routes seems a bit odd. Not that that's bad or anything.

--

The story seems well thought out, although it could use a few brush-ups on grammar. I like the idea that the four seasons were basically made by those four legendaries. :P It'd also be a bit better if you said "ten-year old kid" instead of "ten-year old boy", because someone could easily be a girl. :D

--

Since when has Infernape been speshul? xD
If you could, I think it would be better if you used a different sprite for Infernape if you're going to make him unique, as that D/P sprite makes him seem.. uh, what's the word.. common, kinda.

--

The scripts shown in the screenshots look decent, although I can tell that some of them have simply been re-used (such as the Prof. Oak's Lab sign).

--

The sprites, although I can tell they were based off of another sprite, are pretty sweet. I do really like the water starter, but I don't like the fire one at all. Another good fakemon there would be sweet, as well as one as the grass starter. (Budew isn't mah favourite, sorry. >_>)

--

Also, like DJG said, that second map does feel really quite crowded. The first one is good, though.

One last thing: Be sure to space out your people on the map. Especially on Chromagem City, because they all seem like they're squished onto one area of the map (the center of the paths).

Overall, I think that this is one new hack that could go far. Keep at it, bud!



EDIT: I broke it up a lil' bit to make it easier to read. (This was, by far, the longest post I ever made. :P)

Also, I noticed that your paths and the beach in Chromagem City are straight as straight can be. Try to mix that up a bit too.

 

[pakelamko]

HEY VRAI!


How about this one as a grass starter:

[Sarcastic Prince]

new gym leader: Franky

The Gym Leader Franky looks a bit too crazy.

His/her(?) head is looking up, and I don't think it's good.
