Pokemon Piratite[Preview Available]
 

A Blueberry Production

Hack of: Fire Red

Story
You awaken to the sound of a boy crying. Startled, you jump out of bed and rush out the door. On the beach you find a nearly unconscious boy soaking wet and moaning in agony. Panicking, you grab the boy and rush into to town to seek the aid of the town elder. You navigate around the tall grass and race through the town to the man's home. The town elder takes the boy and gives him a bed to rest in, saying it seems he fell overboard on a ship and had been drifting on the sea for a few days. The elder says he's happy you were here, as his wife hasn't returned from shell collecting in the Azure Caverns and he's beginning to get worried about her. So he asks you to go to the caverns and fetch her. So you run back to your house, grab your sole Pokemon, a Clamperl, and set off for the caves. After finding his wife and returning with her to her home, you find the boy is now awake, but he won't speak to anyone. Puzzled, you attempt to speak to him. However, you are interrupted by a man claiming pirates have landed on the island and were beginning to enter the city. They are claiming they've come looking for a boy that escaped their ships four nights ago. The town elder tells you to quickly take the boy and escape into Hermit Forest. You agree and quickly depart for the woods. Navigating the thick grass, you eventually find the home of the hermit himself. A wrinkled old man, he is at first adverse to your presence but upon explaining to him the situation, he allows them to stay. As you speak to him, he realizes this boy is more than he appears. Without explaining anything to you, the hermit orders you to escape in the dead of the night with the boy and visit eight different locations that can be found on nearby islands. There, you are to receive training that will increase your skill enough to take on the Pirates and remove them from the island. So later that night, you escape with the boy and set off for the locations on the map. However, you are spotted by the Pirates who begin to chase you.

Thus, your journey of deceit, adventure, excitement, lies, difficulty, and rewards begins, all on the High Seas in what is known as "Pokemon Piratite."

No turning back now Luke.

You know I think you have a good story line. Your maps look nice apart from the few errors. You just need pallet editing which I should be able to do for you or help with. Also I sucked at scripting so.... But I will be subscribing to this and posting my support.

+Sneasel™ February 19th, 2008 9:55 AM

Wow, i love the story!!!
Pirates rock, this seems great!
Kebbles is a great scripter too, so I can guarentee this will be great!
~Best of luck~

xghost February 19th, 2008 10:47 AM

now this is an awesome story
it will be a very good hack
good luck

luke February 19th, 2008 10:55 AM

Thanks everybody. I'm redoing my maps with a few new toys from AdvanceMap 1.9 at the moment. And if anybody wants to help with anything, PM me or post here. I'd love it.

Zanacross February 19th, 2008 10:59 AM

I now have no need to help you with pallet editing Luke :p

Well this new advance map rules and I'm gonna start scripting to help you. (Done with mIRC scripting now)

Starting Town Map.

Antwhan February 19th, 2008 4:40 PM

nice map and awesome story....

all that i can rly say is....

Yar har, fiddle de de. Being a Pirate is alright to me. Do what you want cause a pirate is free. You are a Pirate!

Pirates = automatic epic win

good luck Blueberry!

Jack of Bl♠des February 19th, 2008 4:58 PM

I might just need to make a Ninja Version off of this, jk. As long as I don't see Luffy or any characters from One Peice, this hack is fine with me. Your starting town is looking pretty good (I'm a fan of large starting towns, since mine is going to be a city).

luke February 19th, 2008 5:09 PM

One Piece? Ummm... no. I don't watch anime or play Zelda games (someone told me the story was similiar to a Zelda game as well? O____o; I don't know). Big towns are fun, and by walking around on VisualBoy, I think it'll be a fun town to start in. Now if only I could get a scripter and such. :P

That's good to hear. I honestly can't stand that show. As for a good scripter, I'm not so sure I could help you with that.

But one question regarding the hack. Are you going to change the orders of the HMs or something? That lake leading into the caves strikes me as something significant so I'm curious as to if it might be included later into the story or something.

luke February 19th, 2008 5:30 PM

The cave plays somewhat of an important role in the mythology of the island. There are events at the beginning of the game and at the end when you return to the island. That part will be blocked off until the end of the game. There's another entrance to the caves on the island you'll use at first.

Blazichu February 20th, 2008 2:31 AM

Nice to see your hack up Luke, now with scripting I can help whenever I am not busy....but first I need to try hex editing in GBA xD

Also with the cliff tiles, make sure to fix the edges of the cliffs that are on cliffs as they have a green outline as you have used the grass ones.

luke February 20th, 2008 7:54 AM

It's really tough being color blind and not being able to differentiate between the grays and the greens. Hopefully everything is fixed now.

http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff189/lukeXwarm/NeroTown.jpg

Which map has the right cliff tile, because I can't tell. ;_;

mistersmeargle February 20th, 2008 9:07 AM

Still a few small errors on the right side of the map up on the cliffs.

adamb241 February 20th, 2008 10:46 AM

The starting map look a bit to big. There isn't suppose to be a pokemon center or a mart in the starting town.

Zanacross February 20th, 2008 11:30 AM

I'm going to suggest something about that to Luke later. It's all about the planz

luke February 20th, 2008 11:47 AM

I know the normal conventions of a Pokemon game is that the starting town lacks a PokeCenter/Mart, but seeing that this town plays a more central role than most starting towns and it's one of the premier islands in the area, I figured it wouldn't be a major town without them. And does size really matter? I'm not one to conform to standards.

Well I didn't know it was a major town. Then size does not matter. If its soul purpose was to be a starting town and nothing else....Then size matters.

Jack of Bl♠des February 20th, 2008 12:23 PM

I don't see why it wouldn't work to have a Pokemon Center in the starting town. Besides, to clear up any continuity errors, you could just have a script at the front desk where if you step on the tile to talk to the nurse, some random guy tells you not to bother the people there unless you have some pokemon to heal. And when you use the givepokemon prompt for when you get a starter, simply setting a flag will prevent that from happening again.


Also, there's a small error on the right side. Two tiles have some grass left, but other that it looks even better. Hope it comes along nicely.

Though my eyes may be playing tricks on me for that top circle. Other than that it's great.

luke February 20th, 2008 1:20 PM

http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff189/lukeXwarm/NeroTown-1.jpg

Thanks. There were errors in both spots you pointed out. Now to find someone to script for me.

Legobricks February 21st, 2008 1:01 PM

Saw this in Zanacross' signature. Sounds awesome. I'd offer help if I had the resources and knowledge.

Though I don't actually know what Pokemon game hacks are, I'll sit around here and see, since it's interesting. xD

luke February 21st, 2008 3:27 PM

Thanks for the compliment. I'm working on my second map now and trying to find someone to script since apparently Kebbles can't.

Zanacross February 22nd, 2008 8:26 AM

I would like to possibly like to see some more plans for this Luke

luke February 22nd, 2008 11:23 AM

Well, I posted some screen shots of the first scripts (done graciously by wngzero17 despite my Grammar Nazism and my persistent perfectionist attitudes). I am also revamping the first post. Currently looking for someone to make banners so the first thread looks prettier.

adamb241 February 22nd, 2008 12:32 PM

Personlay I think your map looks a bit empty. Maybe adding some more trees or bushes and flowers will make it look a little more "lively". It just looks empty to me.

luke February 22nd, 2008 2:23 PM

Well, you do have a point. Maybe if I get some more tiles of different color flowers, I'll splash more of them on the map. I also posted new screen shots, an updated map, and a banner by mistersmeargle.

+Sneasel™ February 22nd, 2008 2:55 PM

Wow, the screenies look great!
Yeah, maybe you can use a ROM base, just to spice your maps up a bit.

Majestic Milotic huh...do we get to see it ever?

luke February 22nd, 2008 3:11 PM

I like the Fire Red / Leaf Green ROM base, so I think I'll keep it. However, I think I'll insert custom tiles if the situation calls for it. And I explain to you the meaning behind the Majestic Milotic already. ;)

adamb241 February 22nd, 2008 3:22 PM

I think you overdone those flowers over by that one house. Don't make that many of them. Cut the number of flowers you used in half and it will be good. I like your mapping skills though.

luke February 22nd, 2008 3:30 PM

Well, the number of flowers is kind of a result of the personality who the people who live there. When you play the hack, you'd understand. xD I don't normally group that many flowers together.

adamb241 February 22nd, 2008 3:57 PM

Oh, ok. Well I will see when the beta come out.

luke February 22nd, 2008 4:48 PM

New banner by Loki./Mizuki/Xenocrates. Isn't it beautiful?<3

Luck February 22nd, 2008 5:06 PM

Hey blueberry how will clamperl evolve because in the previous games clamperl evolved by trading.
Are you going to make the evolution different depending on which stats are higher like the 3 hitmon's?

mistersmeargle February 22nd, 2008 5:07 PM

*sniff*sniff* You have cast my banner aside like a filthy rag. *sniff*sniff*

Now for the serious part.

Oh wait, no serious part right now, ah well.

Zanacross February 22nd, 2008 5:07 PM

Luke has something involving touching a rock. I think.

What he said. Depends on who I can get to script such an event. I'm also thinking of adding a special Third Evolution, but that depends on if I can get someone to sprite it for me. As you can see, either of these possibilities depend on what resources I have available.

Luck February 22nd, 2008 5:46 PM

yeesh i don't mean to offend mistersmeargle but most of the custom ones are terrible!
The revamped jirachi and the last two are good but the custom pokes are...yuck!
Especially the spirtomb with the helmet thing.
the 8th one looks like a half-empty toothpaste container.
As for blueberry...

good this should be in its rightful place.
I expect much from this game and will seek and find glitches and bugs in the game if you want me to.

luke February 22nd, 2008 6:07 PM

Thanks NIN. Yeah, I like the revamps but the customs aren't the best. :\ Thanks though.

Aquila February 22nd, 2008 8:40 PM

Like the storyline, it sounds exciting. Especially the pirates, can't wait to see the sprites for them
About the Clamperl. Are you gonna make it evolve by level? Cuz I don't like to trade to evolve. And I also wonder if there are Gyms, League etc...

Luck February 22nd, 2008 8:48 PM

No check more up and Blueberry will give you answers.
And they can't evolve by level because Clamperl has 2 evolved forms.
Blueberry why don't you just make a deepseascale and deepseatooth an evolution item?
You know like fire and leaf stones.
it would be much simpler than making a rock script.

TheKingofKings February 22nd, 2008 9:09 PM

Hey Luke. I'm loving the Hack! Your Maps are pretty damn good. The Storyline sounds great, I can't wait for the Beta. If you need any Help, PM me, okay?

Good Job.

Or how about you get to chose? You have the option of take either types of one of a kind stones. You can make it evolve into which ever form you want.

luke February 22nd, 2008 10:24 PM

I'm not one hundred percent yet. I have to figure out what I want to do and when to have that event happen.

Luck February 22nd, 2008 10:27 PM

Makes sense.
Anyways did it get accepted for the GD yet?
And you should put more trees in your starter town.

luke February 22nd, 2008 10:35 PM

No, not yet. Have to wait for someone involved in the Hack section to come and look it over to see if it's approved. And I might add more trees. Working on other maps at the moment.

Zanacross February 23rd, 2008 5:05 AM

All the sprites are custom NIN. None of them are revamped. And 'the spiritomb with the helmet thing'? It's not Spiritomb at all. Apart from the first four, they're all fan-made Pokémon from another website and for your information, if you knew anything about spriting, only the first two (Wailord and Gulpin) and the Spiritomb evolution are done properly. The rest are from my early day of spriting but I posted them because I didn't have any other sprites handy. From what I'm reading you only dislike most of them because you don't know what they are.

wolverfrog February 23rd, 2008 6:04 AM

keep up the good work! is this gonna be released in betas/alphas or are you going to wait til it's fully completed?

bloodthrister February 23rd, 2008 6:27 AM

If you want I can make sketches of some new pokes ;) just tell me what kind of idea you have. Personally I'm definately for another evolution of Clamper. And maybe even an evolution after those??? Anyway Ill look up in my sketches, because I've already drawn out some nice evolutions. The only problem is finding them again XD.

Anyway do you have any requests? I mean Huntail is a Dark/water type and Gorebyss has a psychic/water type, so what should the third be? Fighting??? :P

That sure would make a nice triangle: they can each defeat one other and are weak to another :D

anyway I'll read whatever you want and try to make some nice sketches of those :D

destinedjagold February 23rd, 2008 6:30 AM

Finally, it's in the hack showcase! :D
I love the story and I love the plans you have here! :D

Tiny text error there... It should be spelt as 'receive' and not 'recieve'... :\
Oh well... Best of luck on the project and hoping for more updates! :D

Gorebyss can learn Confusion, Psychich, Agility and Amnesia (all psychic)

are you planning to get genderspecific sprites btw?

For what? Pokemon? Trainers? There's going to be a male and a female trainer if that's what you're asking.

bloodthrister February 23rd, 2008 9:09 AM

no I meant for the pokemon ;)

luke February 23rd, 2008 9:12 AM

There's one Pokemon in particular I'm editing the female sprite of, but I want to keep that a surprise for when it's revealed.

There's just one tiny problem with that, I am fairly sure it would take some hexing to make gender specific sprites actually work....not positive tho.
So Yeh....Just sayin'.
Anywhoo, This looks great so far Blueberry! Nice to see some new hackers blossoming here! You seem to be fairly talented in the hacking degree, so It seems like this could go pretty far bud!
Also, as I said In the PM, If you ever need any help at all(besides spriting and hexing) just ask me. I would like to do some pallete editing for you if that's alright, and if you need proof just send me a PM okay?
Well,
BOL!

luke February 23rd, 2008 11:32 AM

Well, I'll figure it out when need be. So many offers to edit palettes for me. O__O; Oh and I added new screen shots.

linkinkid February 23rd, 2008 11:46 AM

this hack is going really, love the maps and specially the story,only one thing........why clamperl?honestly this pokemon doesn't appeal a lot to me........but asides from that everything else is good.

luke February 23rd, 2008 11:51 AM

Clamperl is one of my favorite Water-types and it's a Pokemon that you never see as a starter. Thanks.

Fox♠ February 23rd, 2008 12:58 PM

That FoxHound sounds helluva sexy. Too bad he never does anything on time.

Oh wait...

It's looking great Luke, maybe I'll have some more sprites done soon :)

ive just made a very quick sketch, but the scanner isnt working :S

do you also want some pokédex info on the pokemon? Or do you want to make that up yourself?:P

luke February 23rd, 2008 1:58 PM

I'll be making it myself. Well, I'm sorry about your scanner. Can't wait to see it when I can.

GKS February 23rd, 2008 2:33 PM

I like the whole idea of the story and good luck. Just a suggestion, maybe you could change more of the tiles like the color of the grass, which should be easy for after you learn how to edit tiles. again good luck!

bloodthrister February 23rd, 2008 3:05 PM

Well it kinda looks like a swordfish >_< and it was just a 5 minute sketch after I saw one on a commercial :P so dont expect too much of it :p I would also prefer to keep it black and white (i'm color blind, so then I'm 100% sure it also looks like that to people who can see colors :P) if thats not too much trouble.

Ill go scan it at the neighbours tomorrow (or today cuz its 0:05 here:P) so you'll see it soon

luke February 23rd, 2008 5:06 PM

Alright cool. Just updated screen shots with the fixed scripts and maps. Added some CSS as well until I can figure out another way to make the first post pretty.

I also need someone who can make a better Milotic OW. That one is temporary.

Zanacross February 24th, 2008 9:51 AM

You should add a what your currently doing part to the front page. That way we know what your doing

luke February 24th, 2008 10:56 AM

Well, I'm looking for someone to sprite a Narwhal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narwhals) that looks like it would evolve from Clamperl. And I'm almost done with my next map. \o/ Should be done within the hour.

mistersmeargle February 24th, 2008 11:20 AM

Y'know what, I have a Narwhal-esque sprite of a fan Poke I made, let me see if i can find it.

Also, here is a Milotic OW:

luke February 24th, 2008 12:07 PM

I really like that OW mistersmeargle. I'll insert it as soon as I can. Thanks.

mistersmeargle February 24th, 2008 12:52 PM

No problem. I found the narwhal guy, in my Recycle Bin >->;

bloodthrister February 24th, 2008 1:03 PM

^^ lol yours looks a little bit like mine (or vice versa) :P
I couldnt scan it in yet(its a drawing with pencil and paper:P) I'm no good spriter so that won't be a good idea :P Hope you can find some more good spriters though

cuz in my opinion MisterSmeargle is a good one ;)

Btw do you give some courses for spriting mister??

Luck February 24th, 2008 1:11 PM

I'd make a banner but i don't know how to change the link.
If you want blueberry i can spot glitches in the game for you.
Hows the progress on the game?
and that narwhale sprite looks pretty good mistersmeargle.
If it helps w/ the pokedex entry,people used to think a narwhale was a unicorn because of the horn(duh).

Thank you for the compliment. Unfortunately I don't do courses but I can direct you to two websites that assisted me. I'll PM the links to you later.

Also trying to get you them banners luke

mistersmeargle February 24th, 2008 2:35 PM

I can make a couple of support banners, I made two of the ones for Pokémon Zephyr and one for Pokémon Red Waters as well as four for my own but you don't get to see them yet...

(To the tune of Peanut Butter Jelly Time) MisterSmeargle Banner Time! MisterSmeargle Banner Time! MisterSmeargle Banner Time! MisterSmeargle Banner Time! MisterSmeargle Banner MisterSmeargle Banner MisterSmeargle Banner with a Baseball Bat!

Luck February 24th, 2008 5:35 PM

That was unnecessary.
the banner looks good though.
but shouldn't the 3rd evo be there too?
And i expected a pirate to be there.

mistersmeargle February 24th, 2008 5:43 PM

Well blueberry hasn't accepted my sprite yet.

Luck February 24th, 2008 5:46 PM

If it is accepted i think it should be steel/water like empoleon because it kinda looks like its wearing armour.
If not i think elec/water because its horn looks like a thick lightning rod.
Are pirates going to pillage and plunder cities occasionally blueberry?

mistersmeargle February 24th, 2008 5:58 PM

The evo is loosely based off a fan poke I came up with called Drilbitt, a fish with a drill horn. Drilbitt was Water/Steel so in the event that Blueberry takes this sprite, I would hope the type doesn't change.

Zanacross February 24th, 2008 6:03 PM

yrrebeulb Will do what he thinks is right for his hack.

now make sure you don't spam his thread up.

While it's good, it's not what I'm looking for exactly. It doesn't look like it would evolve from Clamperl. But it's very nice.

It's actually at a standstill because of a weird error. I'm trying to get it fixed though.

I was thinking of incorporating a Pirate, but I like that one. It's probably not the set one, but it's good.

Luck February 24th, 2008 7:39 PM

Ok what do you think a pirate should look like?
I was thinking of the average red hooded eye patched pirate with the aqua grunt position.
And do you mind if i add you to my friends list blueberry because you seem pretty cool.

luke February 24th, 2008 7:51 PM

Go ahead and add me. Well, my friend FoxHound is doing the sprites, but he's very busy with his college work, so he's taking his time (I know how he feels - College is hard work). These aren't traditional pirates though. You'll see when they're revealed.

adamb241 February 24th, 2008 7:58 PM

That fakemon is amazing up there. It sorta looks like a clampearl evo. but not really. It is awesome though.

You would not believe how effing relieved I am to here that. It's just after looking it over, I realised I wanted it, but I would have given it to if you wanted it.

Luck February 24th, 2008 8:02 PM

Okay blueberry i suck at sprites anyway.
And college?!
I'm not even in high school yet.
Well i guess peoples love for certain games never die.
If you don't have enough mappers then i can help you.

luke February 24th, 2008 8:37 PM

Mapping is my favorite part, so I don't think I'll need help there. Yeah, Pokemon is a fun way to relieve stress.

Don't worry, that's when it gets fun. All I can say is, don't end up hacking more than studying, or you'll end like me right now (hooray for school in six hours !!)

Anywho, I like how the hack is coming along. I hope you'll be able to find a third form for Clamperl, and I'm interested in seeing how you'll implement it. Also, blueberry, what type is the third form going to be? I agree with everybody else where steel could be a nice type mix-up (provided you also edit the types of Gorebyss and Huntail)

luke February 25th, 2008 1:19 PM

Cowrie might possibly sprite the evolution, which may or may not be a pure Water-type like Gorebyss and Huntail. I'm still having an error when I load the game into VBA to test out some stuff, so updates might be slow until I get it fixed.
