Umm, try to get more info on this or wait until you are ready to post.

Likewise September 2nd, 2008 3:22 PM

*sigh* so many threads like this pop up!

you need an intro, storyline, features, section for screens, and a lot more info!

also this is a bad idea, the only thing you are editing is the sprite of the game!!!!

1. Many have researched in vain trying to figure out a way for Pokemon to follow the player, and so far no logical solution has come up.
2. You need more to the story
3. The story sucks, and is completely unoriginal
4. You need a better name
5. You are being lazy when it comes to mapping

SpartanPatriot September 2nd, 2008 3:46 PM

Sounds pretty good. Everyone has to start somewhere. ;)

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 3:46 PM

i just updated the post so it has all of those things in it

to have a different pokemon follow you cant you just replace the sprite of pikachu with a different sprite

Likewise September 2nd, 2008 3:51 PM

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 3:53 PM

Likewise September 2nd, 2008 3:54 PM

Gold Tom September 2nd, 2008 5:13 PM

Hey, this seems pretty good, are you going to change the gyms around? Good luck.

ok i will change it right away

Semblance September 2nd, 2008 7:50 PM

That's basically a modifcation of FireRed. I mean, in FireRed you already can choose if you want to have Charmander as your starter or pick the other two. Pikachu is already catchable in the original so basically all you've added is that you can catch the starters later in the game.

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 7:54 PM

it is a hack of yellow
it is going to be yellow but charmander will follow you and you cannot catch a pikachu in pokemon yellow and you have to choose charmander and gary will have eevee

Semblance September 2nd, 2008 8:03 PM

Yes, it's a hack of Yellow but you've barely changed anything. The "hacking" your about to do is simple modifications, the most compliacted script being the Starter Pokemon one. One of the main points of Yellow that made the game so popular is the fact that you can start with Pikachu, easily the face of the Pokemon franchaise. Yellow hacks already lack originality as it is and you've taken away one of the key components that made the original so succesful. In the Kanto games you can already choose Charmander and there's a 33% chance a player that plays FireRed will choose Charmander, so that's just making the user definetly having Charmander. Pikachu is already catachable in Viridian Forest so you havne't changed anything there either. In the end if you look at it, the only thing you've really changed is that you've given the player a chance to catch Squirtle and Bulbasaur in the wild

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 8:11 PM

you cannot catch pikachu in pokemon yellow
it cant be done without a cheat device
and the will get the other starters and pikachu in events

Semblance September 2nd, 2008 8:15 PM

But your hacking a FireRed rom, a game where you can catch Pikachu in Viridian forest. You can't just rely on one or two extra events as a hack, Nintendo can sue you for claiming all the rest of the work is yours when people in their company really did it.

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 8:46 PM

i am going to hack the original pokemon yellow

OK, that just made me look like a idiot :\

Even if your hacking Yellow, your only adding a few events. Try remapping some routes and city's and change up some of the dialouge.

darthd1 September 2nd, 2008 8:54 PM

i already said i probialy will when i finnish what i have planed

Blazichu September 3rd, 2008 12:17 AM

Alright, guys....stop mini modding! It happens a lot in these sort of threads.

On Topic...You need to expand your storyline or features to keep this alive.

Pokémon Charmander? Kinda... sucky. Perhaps... Pokémon Burning Thunder? Because it's hack of Pokémon Yellow (thus the thunder part) and you get Cgarmander, which is fire, thus the burning part.

EDIT: I think I can get you some sprites... but I;'m not entirely sure.

By the way, I#m not really sure why I'm helping you with this hack. Usually a boring hack like this I would leave to die. Must be in a weird good-but-not-exactly-happy mood... how weird.

EDIT 2: Gary's Eevee evolves depending on what you do:
Lose against Gary in lab: Vaporeon
Win against Gary in Route 22 (If you didn't lose against Gary in lab): Jolteon
Skip/Lose Battle against Gary in Route 22 (If you didn't lose against Gary in lab): Flareon

Perhaps you should change it so it always evolves in to Vaporeon. Or change it to this:

Lose against Gary in lab: Jolteon
Win against Gary in Route 22 (If you didn't lose against Gary in lab): Vaporeon
Skip/Lose Battle against Gary in Route 22 (If you didn't lose against Gary in lab): Flareon

Of course, you could just leave it as it is.

EDIT 3: Found you some Charmander sprites, there not that good, but it's the sprite used in R/B, so what did you expect?
