Walli and Lucus? Sry but those are awful names :/
What about Wayne and Luke?

LassLaura June 6th, 2010 10:42 AM

Remember when Gym Leaders used to have names based on whatever their primary Pokemon type was? Whatever happened to that?

It doesn't matter. As long as they pronouce the same, it's fine.
Plus, those names are unique. And the reason to that is because
they're more like custom names.

The leaders' names don't have to have their names based on their
primary typed Pokemon. That's Nintendo style. But! This is a hack
made by Wesley. He has his own unique style.

I finished the beta and i say its really good i will wait for the next beta released...!!!!

Well, it's only kinda Nintendo's style, but they do stray from it occasionally. Look at Sabrina in Kanto- to my knowledge, that doesn't have a connection to the Psychic type. Although, sometimes it's so blatant it's stupid- Bugsy, Gardenia, etc.
But I think it'd be better if you tried to make their names refer to their types, Wesley. Just my opinion, but it looks better, and it's one of those few things that it's okay to keep while still being original.

But they really sound crappy :/

To all fans: Could you tell us your opinions? Do you like SP's names or you'd prefer my or you have your own ideas?

pokehacker12 June 7th, 2010 4:48 AM

wow you inspired me into rom hacking thanks

Alireza June 7th, 2010 5:49 AM

That's true, the only possible but very weak connection I found between Sabrina and psychic types is you get the name "Abra" if you mix the letters around a bit, or that it's possibly a reference to Sabrina the Teenage Witch. But a lot of Leaders and Elite 4 have type-themed names (Brock, Lt. Surge, Falkner, Pryce, Will, Roxanne, Brawly, Wattson, Glacia, Drake, Volkner, Flint, etc.) so I think this naming scheme should be given some consideration, at least for a few of the Leaders.

I agree, they do sound crappy and not imaginative at all. Changing one letter of an existing name does not a new name make.

What about Wyre (as in electrical wiring) for Wally instead? And what about Marsh (as in a watery swamp-like area) for Lucas?

BlazingShadow June 7th, 2010 4:21 PM

Whoa this hack is best best there is can't wait for the next beta.

Yes, that's OK, but is there any word related to water and it starts with "L"?

Well there's Lake which can also be spelled as Laike, or Loch (the Scottish word for lake) which you could spell as Locke if you wanted to get fancy-shmancy.

I really love you hack but i have a question can we continue our save game if the next beta come out?

You can always save xD xD
But I guess you wanted to ask if you can use your old saves.
If yes then yes you can use it ;)

Maxim June 9th, 2010 5:35 AM

I don't like the Leaders' names... At all.

First, they don't seem to relate to the types in any way. Sure, not that it's a neccessity. But it's always more creative to give Leaders names that are related to their types but not blatantly. The current names bother me. That "é" in "Jéssica" bothers me. I'm not a fan of "Kool Letterz". The Leader called Esmeralda in Esmerald City? Really? Wally sharing his name with an important canon character bothers me the most. And Lucas and Thomas are too plain to be Gym Leaders names.

I'm a good namer, they say. I love giving names. And if I were Wesley, I'd call those leaders that:

Bug girl - Ariadna (similar to Arachnid)
Grass girl - Florence (nice name, related to flowers)
Water guy - Deuterius (from Deuter, one of Hydrogen isotopes, which creates the so-called "heavy water")
Ghost guy - Auric (from "aura", you know, spiritual stuff)
Ground guy - Silas (from Silicon, one of the main element of Earth's chemical structure)
Electric guy - Newton (force unit, you know, not strictly electrical but physical and energy-related)
Ice girl - Aisey (cute name, similar to "icy") or Gladys (from glacier)

But that's just me. Do your hack your way, it's very cool anyway. But I just think that these Gym Leaders deserve to have better names.

What do you think about these names, people?

personz5 June 9th, 2010 5:55 AM

it freezes wen it gets to the tittle screen help?

I couldn't agree with you more. The names you proposed are great and I hope Wesley decides to use them.
Send him a PM with those names.

Btw did you know Auric was Goldfinger's name? XD Auric Goldfinger, from James Bond.

SonicBlazePlatinum June 9th, 2010 8:23 AM

I agree with Tropical Sunlight and Maxim. If Wesley doesn't use them do you think Sarcastic Prince will in the translated version? I think he might or should.

cspmoneymaker June 9th, 2010 9:04 PM

This hack is definitely gonna be a hit when it's released !!! ;)
For quite a long time,finally there is something to compare to Ruby Destiny - Range of Legend. :D

Unknowndevil June 10th, 2010 1:21 AM

Hey
sorry guys if this is asked (too lazy walk over 100 page to see)
but what is the newest version of this game right now?
beta 2 or beta 4
I found a beta 4 version on youtube but on the first thread only beta 2 are there

Josephrulzyou June 10th, 2010 2:29 AM

Beta 4 that u seen in youtube was the old beta story. The new beta has upgraded story line and beta 2 is the latest installment in it.

There's only beta 3 of old LP and beta 2 of new.

Bzhuan June 10th, 2010 2:57 PM
