    Nope I have no intention of adding D/P pokemon, I'm not very fond of most of them tbh and theres enough selection from Kanto/Johto/Hoenn region.

    Kanto, Johto and Hoenn are the best. Don't dare you put in D/P Pokémons! (Or at least not overwrite any old pokémons, use the 25 free slots)

    I got a lot of free time so If you want help i can Script, Advance scripting in XSE, Tile ripping, Insert pokémons, tiles and spriters, edit pokémons, title screen edit, map and much more.

    Thanks for the offer Alex! I'll keep that in mind. :)

    Update!! 8/05

    Screens:
    Lament Village as you leave your house (Damn, caught it as the label scrolled out :P)
    LamentTown.png


    Woman up on the rocks, I know about the border error >< its been fixed.
    LamentSprite.png


    Entrance to the Breeding Center's trading area, blocked as the Hero doesn't have a pokemon yet!
    TrainingYard.png


    A Meowth resting in the Poke-Yard :3 Isn't it cute? Haha.

    If you see any tiling errors please point out where! Also the some of the script is bound to change, for examble 'breeding center' needs to be Breeding Center, and Town should actually be Village. Thanks!


    -------------------

    Since I am now onto making Give Pokemon sprite I will be closing the Poll (if I can do that even o.O)

    Anyway the results are:
    1 Vote for New Pokemon
    4 Votes for Using Pokemon not normally used as Starters
    3 Votes for Using Nintendo starters.

    Therefore I will be using Vulpix/Staryu/Cacnea.

    Next up I want to know which Pokemon you want available on Route 1! These will be level 3-5 (maybe one level 6 too for some added difficulty) and can be from any region other than DP :).

    As pokemons for Route 1 I would say, try Pidgey/Taillow, Wurmple, ???Bulbasaur??? and maybe, I don't know, Rhyhorn at 5% rate?

    Also nice screenshots. Just hope I can help yuo with the hack.

    I am going to avoid Rock types until the player is likely to have Grass/Water/Fighting pokemon to stop them, since the starters will only be knowing Tackle moves a Rhyhorn might be a bit of a challenge.

    I like the idea of Taillow! :) I'll make sure to include some of them!

    At the moment I am scripting both Lament town and the Breeding Center (and its surroundings), if I come across any problems I will send you a PM Alex. Hehe.

    You seem to already be incredible experienced in hacking :D
    The first thing i learnt from hacking was scripting, and scripting is incredible easy, imo.

    But now on-topic. Good luck on scripting and I think your right about the Rock-type thingie.

  • Thanks! I'm not good at scratch spriting, but I could try making some rough copies of the fakemon you mentioned in your first post.

    Another Update! I'm in a scripting mood today :) Though some things still need fixing.

    This nice chap hints in a very subtle way that there might be a potion nearby... hmm...

    In to the Breeding Lab! A nice selection of eggs to choose from.

    Oh my! 256 steps later (lol) My orange egg hatches into...
    VulpixHatched.png

    Tada!

    And here it is with its updated stats :)
    VulpixStats.png

    All starters have an original Ability and the usual starter ability, so theres some diversity in it!

    ---Note---

    Does anyone know how to change the number of steps for an egg hatch? Or, on the other hand, some kind of script which can force an Egg hatch? I tried editing it in YAPE but it just resets itself... 256 is the best I can do XD

    There is actually no scripts that lets you hatch an egg. But I really like the idea of the breeding center and nice maps! Further good luck!

    PM me for help, I'm bored.

    Thanks GavZ!

    --------​
    Current To Do List:
    Dad Script
    Get Pokedex Script
    Complete all random Sprite Scripts
    Mom Script <-- Currently doing.

    --------​

    After choosing your Egg.

    Once the Egg has hatched Dad gets a phonecall...

    Where AAa = Player << I should really start a new file haha.

    So yes, that Dad Script = DONE :) Now on to Mom, whose Script should be easier I think...

    Also I got round to completing the Scripts for both the other Eggs XD Which felt left out as I was dedicated to completing the Orange one first :P Luckily it was just a simple matter of copy/paste with some simple edits!

    Nice maps but i would like to point out some tile errors.

    The maps with corrections.

    The fences are really no problem, but they don't really match the grass with rock, maybe use the block editor and make half rock and half grass? And about the stones on the mountains, it may be something by my eye or it just that you used wrong stone. The rest are just some minor errors.
