Pokémon Island Chronicles
 
POKEMON:Island Chronicles

This is a hack of:Leaf Green
called: Island Chronicles

Storyline Update:
You and your family are on a sailing boat, enjoying a relaxing boat ride when out of nowhere a storm brews and capsizes the boat. The shock of the cold water makes you unconscious and your limp body floats off to an island.

Waking up, you see a large amount of vegetation, a desert and beyond that a volcano, towering above all of it. You’ve heard of this island before, but can’t quite remember where. Looking down, you gasp in shock as you see your parent’s pokeball lying still in the silk-soft sand. Picking it up, you decide that you are going to have to explore this island if you are ever going to find your parents and use this Pokemon not only as your partner, but as your friend.

Walking along the beach, you remember something else, which is that a mysterious, powerful Pokemon lives on this island. Spurred on by hope that this Pokemon can help you, you travel towards the volcano, knowing that your real adventure has only just begun.

FEATURE UPDATE
Pokemon at the start:
The Pokemon at the start will be the starters from the original series to the third generation Pokemon. If unfamiliar with them, they are as follows:
• Bulbasaur
• Squirtle
• Charmander
• Pikachu
• Chikorita
• Totadile
• Cyndaquil
• Treecko
• Mudkip
• Torchic

Features:
• Ash Dunes will be a zone where you will find Fire and Ground-type Pokemon.
• Cocoon Forest is a zone inhabited by Grass and Poison Pokemon.
• All Items (including HM’s) will be found on the island.
• Valley of the Sunken will be a dive site where you find your parent’s bodies.
• Choice of male or female for your player.
• New music will be input, such as slow, eerie music for when you find your parent’s carcasses.

this belongs in the quick storyline thread

DARKSHADE September 5th, 2008 12:44 PM

ok m8 firstly u didnt say which rom ur using
secondly start mapping now dont wait otherwise u wont get intresy
thirdly u didnt mention the tramp u were telling me about.........
as for pokemon able to disort time?
i would suggest inserting dialga as it is the time pokemon
OR EVEN BETTER!! CELEBI that saves u from inserting fakemon
ill make u some OW'S
sprites and tilesets if u want overall looks good :)

rpgamer123 September 5th, 2008 12:51 PM

cool idea mate go to whackahack and get some software

dragpyre September 5th, 2008 12:56 PM

I've got AdvanceMap. I shall map before scripting with assistance from darkshade.

To Darkwiz: It says in the description that the scrapbox is to be used to jot down ideas for a hack, so i am in the right place to be posting.

The Original Darkwiz787 September 5th, 2008 2:20 PM

There's a thread called "quick storyline thread. It's stickied. it's if you just have storylines, and people can rate it.


it needs a features section.
an info section (eg. rom info)
otherwise though, it looks good! Good storyline! :D

dragpyre September 6th, 2008 1:17 AM

UPDATE!!!:
A zone named The Valley of the Sunken will be mapped. It will be placed underwater and dive is needed to reach it, (HM's will be found on the Island) and it is also where your parents carcasses will be found. This part possibly will be upsetting to the younger player, like when you leave in Mystery Dungeon Red.

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 1:21 AM

so u liked my idea yay ^^ lol
yeah youll have to use depressing music......

dragpyre September 6th, 2008 1:24 AM

UPDATE 2!!!!!:

I will be implementing a sandstorm into Island Chronicles, using the weather edit controls within AdvanceMap. Also i will be mapping a Forest Zone. On a final note, all items will be found on the island, such as pokeballs and potions.

Something like the music used in pokemon tower. It will need to be eerie

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 1:33 AM

the desert sandstorm effect is doable
however the ash effect isnt unless u use the snow weather in fr/lg as the ash
which is what nintendo did in r/s/e

Do you think nintendo® used a different palette to change the colours of the weather?

Gold Tom September 6th, 2008 1:36 AM

Maybe for a name you could try Shadows of Death, or Darkness, or something.

My Hack is based around a volcanic island. I dont think i will use that name unless i put in shadow pokemon like Darkshade, which is not likely.

Gold Tom September 6th, 2008 1:41 AM

Okay, well, good luck, you have one of the more original storylines I have ever seen

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 1:41 AM

lol

island chronicles
island adventures
or element island

Thank You Gold Tom. I have only just started and this idea just came off the top of my head. I'm just building around the initial idea.


To Darkshade: I'll have the name Island Chronicles. Thank you for your support.

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 1:46 AM

sounds good......
nintendo used ow's aswell which might be possible aswell ....

i dont think the bike wil be in it, cuz theirs like no shop and finding one would be strange.

would it be possible to find something like the pokenav to act as a map and it slowly gets filled as you go along like in the old zelda GBC games

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 1:51 AM

no but u could find a map somewhere (the town map)
and u could replace the name TOWN MAP with ISLAND MAP or OLD MAP
or something along those lines..........

no offence but ur island chronicles banner isnt....well gr8 ill make u a better one
maybe animated if i can be bothered

dragpyre September 6th, 2008 1:59 AM

I know it isn't it as good as it could have been, but i was in a rush, but i would like the beach, volcano and vegitation still included, because in my opinion it looks good.

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 2:07 AM

yep sure its kinda hard though .............

dragpyre September 6th, 2008 2:31 AM

Thank you Darkshade
You said that it was hard and it could have been better.....
But i am very grateful

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 11:33 AM

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 11:43 AM

DARKSHADE September 6th, 2008 11:56 AM

Cronos September 7th, 2008 12:00 AM

Story Can Be Credited But Where Are The EVIL Team,So What Is The Pokemon Who Is Gonna Help You Out,Good Luck With This Hack

DARKSHADE September 7th, 2008 1:31 AM

dark wolf x has a point y'no
maybe the evil team can be an evil team of pokemon?

also what about the marts and pokecenters?

Cronos September 7th, 2008 1:37 AM

Yeah And What About Gym Leader's?

DARKSHADE September 7th, 2008 1:42 AM

i dont think gym leaders are that important to be honest....................

dragpyre September 10th, 2008 6:51 AM

hi
 
Apologies for my absence, my wireless is broken so i am forced to use my local library's computers.

I have just began work on Cocoon Forest area and should have a map shot up soon. Also i changed the beach again so opinions on the newer one needed.
http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=1491&pictureid=8998

Also i might need a little assistance for my tests. I require a user to do some scripting for what the character is thinking on the beach before and after he finds his/her pokemon so i do not know if anyone can do that for me please. Any offers will be muchly appreciated.

DARKSHADE September 11th, 2008 10:46 PM

ur a newbie so im not sure if u used movement permission did u?

dragpyre September 12th, 2008 1:05 PM

hey again
 
http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=1491&pictureid=9216
I have suceeded in fixing my wireless internet
I have modified the beach again and have almost finished the tester for the link between the Beach and Cocoon Forest.

Opinions much appreciated

Goku GT September 13th, 2008 5:28 PM

i Think you need to add screen shot but yeahs, sounds pretty cool and yeahhs

dragpyre September 16th, 2008 1:37 PM

hello,
i have had some sprites produced for me (thank you very much, Darkshade) and a real game screenshot should be up soon.

watch this space

SkyeheavenXX September 16th, 2008 1:38 PM

I think it sounds great!
I always loved the games where your the pokemon x3
Hope you make itttt!
:D

no offence, but the actual storyline says that you pick up a pokemon, not that you are one

Hiche.. September 17th, 2008 1:11 AM

Good luck on this hack.
I hope it will turn out great.http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

dragpyre September 23rd, 2008 9:48 AM

My Apologies for my absence, i havent been able to acess my laptop as all my stuff is on it.

i should have screenshots with sprites in them soon. (thanks to darkshade for finishing them)

keep watching this space

UPDATE: (again)
I am officially back working on the hack.
I'm just waiting on an ips from darkshade at the moment, but I have some new ideas.

Pokemon should be able to be stored on pc in my hack too. So I'm thinking in your bag, satchel, rucksack whatever, you should have a laptop which acts like the pc in the game.

Also, if anyone can script and is interested in helping with Island Chronicles, post or send me a message because I should have an ips by the end of this week.

Any help would be appreciated

Keep watching this space and the story of the making of Pokemon: Island Chronicles unfolds.

~DarkAchu~ October 4th, 2008 2:02 AM

sounds great and a bit chilling about the part of your parents bodys, (murder or suicide?)

dragpyre October 6th, 2008 7:18 AM

On second thoughts, i will wait until we have the first major zone done before i post an ips.So yes, the game is still in development. we'll have a beta preview soon.Signed Dragpyre

THIS IS A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:

The hack is being totally revamped. D/P tiles will be added. Me and darkshade are gonna be swamped with work on my hack and his so don't expect this hack to go too fast. This is a slow and steady process.

Once we have a revamp up, we will need scripters to script some things to test if the hack will actually work the way i want it too.

Also, do you think i should make a recruitment thread?

Again, WATCH THIS SPACE and post away!

Dragpyre

i've been gone off this thread for a while but i'm back.

I have some new ideas:

Instead of gym leaders, you will have village cheifs. yes i have decided that they're will also be people on the island. After beating the final cheif, you will go in search of celebi, to see if it can take you back home.

here are some sprites, courtsey of Darkshade:

dragpyre November 25th, 2008 11:33 AM

Mods, can you close and delete this thread, as i no longer need it and i will never need to revive it.

thanks to whoever does this.
