    PokeNation is a project that started back in 2010, since the beginning that
    what we want to create is a new Pokemon Online Game, but not just another one!
    We want you to enjoy the real Pokemon gameplay while being able
    to fully interact with your friends, building an healthy competition.
    PokeNation is being programmed in Java, and since the engine isn't
    completely done we can't show much content at this moment.

    • That looks fantastic. Just wondering, are you using any game library like LWJGL, game engine like Slick2d, a built in gui package like awt or something else entirely?

    • Looks really sick! I don't personally like Java but I really respect people who use it in there games, and pull it off (something I can't do) :) I wish you good luck.
    maybe you can give me a few pointers for my game? http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=256373
    Thanks.

    also, when do you think you might have videos or a demo? I really wanna play this game, love pokemon online games :)

    This is inaccurate, your using Fire Red/Leaf Green Tiles and Gold/Silver Sprites.

    Don't take it the wrong way, but I think it's just common sense.

    Rad means "TO DO"
    Orange "WORKING ON IT"
    Green "DONE"

    Oh I thought it was clear and easy to understand but I'll put the color description on the thread. Sorry for that.

    Most-likely done with chatbox, just need to finish the chatscroll updating:

    That's where COMMON SENSE comes in. That kind of color codes are widely used in this kind of W.I.P projects.

    • Looks cool! But i have few questions.

    1. Will the game have somekind of story and gym leaders? Or just player vs player battles?
    2. How many Pokemon game will have when ready? And from what generation?
    3. Will the game have Fakemon? How many?
    4. What are the starting pokemon?

    Sorry for my bad english :)

    I second all of Nobololol's questions, but I'm also wondering, are you only planning on creating Kanto and Johto (since those are the only ones listed)? Later in development are you going to try and add other regions, or is the possibility unrealistic? I understand there's lots of problems with tilesets matching up and the like. Will only Kanto/Johto pokemon be included then?

    Looks very pretty.
    What protocol are you using for your MMORPG?

    Do you have a battle engine?

    It's been a long time since my last post here but I've been busy with uni and other things, anyway I didn't stop developing PokeNation and I don't plan on stopping it :p

    As I said on my last reply I was working on music system, and here it is:


    The website pokenation.org has been started and is in its early development.

    Forum has been opened as well here: http://pokenation.org/forum/ Join to post some suggestions or something :p


    Now let's answer some question from the last replies!

    1. I'm not sure if it will have a "story", but there will be gyms, quests, and some other things that I won't reveal :p PvP battles will also be present. :)
    2. I haven't decided yet, but at least Gen III or IV.
    3. I'm not thinking on adding any Fakemon since i'm not a fan of it. Unless someone suggests it and many people approve the idea.
    4. The starter pokemons are all the starters from the Gen III or IV.

    As you said creating many regions while keeping a tileset style will not be easy, unless I can find some spriters that are able to join this project. Anyway I plan on doing at least Johto and Kanto, but later I hope to have other region and custom regions/maps aswell.

    Generically I'm using TCP protocol to make communication between client and server, I'm not sure if that was your question :o

    I didn't start working on battle engine yet, but there are one or two engines already made in java that I can take a look to see the basics.
