Level design question: What are creative ways to block progress? I'm trying to avoid the obvious Pokemon blocking the road or HM obstructions like cut trees.

Thank you! I'm taking a break from it right now to work on the narrative (main events, dialogue, etc.) So far I've made the most progress with the Fakedex, with only backsprites left to do.

Everything about this ROM hack is awesome! You might want to consider modifying the name a bit so it doesn't get confused with preexisting ones. I'm definitely interested in hearing about what kind of side quests you had in mind though. Honestly that's something the real games could use more of...

Thank you so much!

UPDATE: Fakedex After a few months hiatus from any kind of development, I think its long overdue that I give you guys some form of update! The majority of the time has been spent completing the Fakedex by churning out more sprites, tinkering with stats, and rewriting dialogue/story. For now...

Update: I've recently passed the 100 mark for my Fakedex, which has been readded to the original post. Yay! As for the HACK name, I really haven't gotten many suggestions, so be sure to leave some replies. This page has a poll too on some names. As far as design goes, I've also brought on a new...

Thanks! I'm a little over 50% of front sprites right now so I should really do an update. For inserting sprites, the tool I use is called AGIXP (it's free!). Here is a tutorial I used as reference here. Constraints: - There may be some compatibility issues with your machine, in which case...

Since my last update I've added about 30 more Pokemon to my Fakedex. I've also reformatted and reorded it to include names and types. Individual dex entries can be found in the link included in the original post. If there are any improvements you think can be made (type changes, sprite...

Noted, and thanks! The later stuff is indeed outlined, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to spoil too much up front. (the spoiler tags I put don't actually contain spoilers....yet). Hopefully this is enough to go on.

Those reasons aren't why I'm making this hack, unfortunately. Aside from the field being very oversaturated with these titles, I'm simply making this a Gen 2 hack because those are the games that had the most impact on me as a fan. I've also invested a lot of time under the assumption that this...

Title + Opening Act Feedback Pokemon Sogen While I'm focusing on the map editing aspect of my ROM Hack at the moment, I'd like to first of all come up with a better name for it, one that captures the themes of loss, facing the past, life, death, and resurrection. Secondly, I'd also like...

Pokemon Faded Memory (Working Title Pokemon Sogen. Suggestions Welcome!) [Background] Faded Memory is an extensive pokeCrystal Hack I'm working on at the moment. It incorporates a brand new story, region, characters, and Fakemon into the game, adding complex themes of loss, consequence, and...

UPDATE: So I've figured out the tile fiasco after looking at the map data in the hex editor. Apparently some of the tiles I used were duplicate versions (look the same, different value) so that was rectified. I also fiddled around with the Map Connections and got the map to not overlap itself...

To preface, I'm modifying New Bark Town to make a town of my own. So far I've enlarged the map from 10x9 tiles to 16x12 and rearranged the tiles, making sure to put the Warps in the correct places. When testing the map, I ran across a few problems. Towards the center of the map things seem...

True. Spell check and punctuation wouldn't hurt either. As for the original poster, let's start with the basics so we can understand your thought process: - Which game are you planning to hack? (This is important if you want to fit all of this content in. We need to understand the software...
