Intro
Long ago, when the pyramids were still young...oh wait sorry, wrong story, haha. Please forgive my terribad reference, and welcome to the Team Endless Disaster thread, the team for Pokémon Ataxia! I decided to make this hack, the first one I've created, because not only do I want a hack that appeals to players like me, who love a challenge and standard competitive play, but also to those who enjoy exceptional graphics and a dark storyline with countless twists and turns, with surprises around every corner. However, I can't take on this challenge alone. This is where you come in. If you would like to see this hack completed and can help improve the hack's quality, we would be glad to have you on the team. All we ask is that you are consistent, friendly, and most importantly, dedicated. As long as you help at least 2 or 3 days each week, that's definitely good enough. We have a life though, so we do understand that there may be a time every now and then where you will be away for a little longer than average. But as a team, we can work things out and focus on making the most of our time and creating the best hack possible!
Hack Details
Name: Pokémon Ataxia
ROM base: Pokémon Emerald
Language: English and eventually Spanish & Portuguese (maybe with other translations later depending on demand and availability of translators)
Progress: 1% (some sprites finished and a lot of ideas)
Story Background
The brand new region where the events of Pokémon Amaranthine take place is an insanely harsh environment, where volcanoes clash with the seas and scorching deserts meet frozen wastelands. This creates great diversity among the Pokémon that dwell in the region and strange type combinations. It has also led to several groups of people who attempt to weather the extreme conditions and adapt to 1 of the environments and utilize it, becoming "masters" of their environment. However, most people choose to reside in the safest area of the region, its calm center. Not all is well in the region though, as dark forces begin to rise, and tensions stir between the environmental master alliances across the landscape. Many sinister trials await our hero, with the stakes far too high, the consequences far too devastating, for failure to be an option.
Features
* New region, new exciting storyline
* Player decisions
* All new custom tile sets
* 4th/5th/6th Gen Pokemon
* 140+ well-designed Fakemon
- Evolutions for existing Pokémon (21 to be exact)
* All Pokémon obtainable

* Fairy typeand a brand new type
* New weather effects
* Custom music and remixes of a few classics
* A couple of cameo appearances from past games
* Lots of post-game content for hours of playing!
"The Weather Wizards" (Current Members)
TheHaymaker - project leader, mapper, scripter, concept/idea creator, miscellane
kakiman - spriter, mapper, translator
Jonkane - art/concept art, sprite inserter, possible mapper *involvement still uncertain*
*Jobs Needed*
Tileset Creator and Inserter (1) - This is very, very important, since the hack revolves around the environment, so amazing-looking tiles for each type of environment are needed.
Scripters (1-2) - There will be a lot of scripting involved, of course. At least 1 really advanced scripter would be great.
Spriter (2?) - Everything from trainer and item sprites to Fakemon sprites and their smaller overworld sprites while in the PC
Cry editor (1) - To give cries to the new Pokémon
Pokedex expander (1) - The Pokedex will need to be preferably 650-800+ slots
Intro, Title, and/or Credits Editor (?) - If anyone can do any of these that would be great, but they aren't a top priority yet
Application - Copypasta
Skill(s):
Proof of Work (if any):
Past Experience (if any):

Time Zone: If you don't want to share it, you can PM it to me
