Pokemon: The Awakening ~~13th May Route 1 at 80%
Features:
-A New Region.
-A New Rival, and many new allies.
-A New set of 8 Gym Leaders, in interesting and challenging locations!
-A New evil team - Team Zodiac.
-Different Starter Pokemon! (To be Decided)
-A wide range of Kanto, Johto and Hoenn Pokemon, however no D/P will be included (unless I have a change of heart).
-Some Pokemon evolution methods have/will be changed.
-A New Legendary Pokemon.
-Bye bye annoying Flash and Rock smash! They will feature but they are no longer HM moves that can't be deleted (or so is the plan!).
-Puzzles, Mazes and more!
I am also currently thinking about Fakemon. I would love the three Starter chains to be Fakemon, and also the main legendary of this game. However I am totally unskilled in this department so if anyone is up for a project please message me! (Thats a total of 10 Fakemon : P Unimpressive eh?)
Starter Plans: (From Post #4 and Post #20)
Now decided on :) Only read this is you are really bored... Haha.
Larvass (Bug/Grass)
Worm with wing-like leafs on its back.
Evolves early, like most bugs do, at lv 14
[needs name] (Bug/Grass)
Cocoon made of leaves (Think Bagon's evolution)
Once again evolves early at lv 30
Florixie (Grass/Flying)
Pixie with leaf wings.
Final stage :D
Pyrake (Fire)
Red and Orange patterned snake
Evolves late, lv 18
Salaro (Fire)
Red and orange patterned salamander, smokey pores on its back.
Evolves late at lv 36
Volcroco (Fire/Ground)
Red crocodile with earthy scales on legs and tail and a flame ridge on back.
Final Stage :D
Molsqua (Water)
Small blue slug like thing.
Evolves at the happy medium of lv 16.
Snailter (Water)
A blue snail with an ornate purple shell
Evolves at lv 33
Hydrasco (Water/Ice)
Two headed deep blue snail with frosting layer. Scary :3
Final Stage :D
Of course these ideas require actual spritings, of which I have no skill in >< if you read this and feel inspired please pm me :D hehe.
What do you guys think? :) (Personally not too fond of the Water group at the moment, and did you notice I almost made two Triangles? XD Water - Fire - Grass with Flying - Ground - Ice. Its close << shh)
----ALTERNATIVE----
Since a) Spriting seems to be a problem and b) The poll states otherwise ;).
I propose these pokemon (all edited to meet requirements :P )
Staryu, Vulpix, Cacnea
All seem underused and they are pretty kick ass pokemon really :) I will edit their stats to vaguely resemble Nintendo starters and update their move sets (as Staryu and Vulpix now evolve on a Level rather than by stones!).
Plus I noticed 2 stage evolution pokemon are never used as starters... that has to change!
Screenshots:
Updated 8th May
Lament Village as you leave your house (Damn, caught it as the label scrolled out :P)
Woman up on the rocks, I know about the border error >< its been fixed.
Entrance to the Breeding Center's trading area, blocked as the Hero doesn't have a pokemon yet!
A Meowth resting in the Poke-Yard :3 Isn't it cute? Haha.
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...
Whilst the green egg hatches into...
And the blue egg you ask?
But Staryu isn't blue! You yell. But of course Starmie is, cough, please don't try to use this to link to why the Vulpix egg isn't white! Shh.
And here it is Vulpix its updated stats :)
All starters have an original Ability and the usual starter ability, so theres some diversity in it!
New Rival Seph pops up:
Running Shoes?! Thank god!
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!
Maps:
Updated 10th May.
Lament Town:
Whats in the cave? Sorry to disappoint but its nothing exciting...
Breeding Center:
See the grass at the bottom? Thats the training yard which you can get access too after your Egg has hatched.
Route 1 (Part 1):
Its a rather Tiny route, but its enough to get to the first town - via a rather busy little place - :) (Also even though its the first route its technically the 2nd training area).
Route 1 (Part 3)
Maple Town
Looking for...:
I think I am good enough at Mapping to manage that task on my own, and I know the basics of Scripting using PokeScript so I can manage simple talking scripts on my own.
However I would appriciate anyone who is willing to help with:
-Complicated Scripts
-Fakemon Spriting/Indexing and some help putting them in game (: I have sketches of 1st stage starters already. No Longer needed.
-Title Screen redo, this isn't very important yet to be honest (:
-Gym Leader sprites, (see above note).

Pokemon the Awakening
Hack of: FireRed (:
Story:
You start off in the small seaside village of Larent, where you live with your Mum and Dad. On the morning of your 15th birthday you come downstairs to be told to go to visit your Dad, who is a Pokemon breeder and works just across the bridge. Sadly he has lost your birthday present, a Pokemon, however he does have some odd looking Eggs. He says that you can take one of them home to look after, but on the way - shocker! - it hatches! Well, you might as well start your Pokemon journey now!
~~
Elsewhere in the Region of Carba people are going missing, from Hikers to School kids, Gym leaders to the Elite. And thats when the chaos begins.
The police have quarantined Mount. Tar, where sightings of extremely dangerous Pokemon have started. Deep in the heart of the mountain Team Zodiac are undergoing an ancient ritual to awaken the black dragon, Obsidian, using their hostages as bait for the colossal beast. To stop them you will have to team up with Rivals, Leaders and the odd Pokemon professor or two. Can you're combined efforts stop Obsidian rising again? Or will the world be plunged into chaos...
However, not everything is as it seems.
