Pokemon Law Enforcement
 
2 Attachment(s)
A New Hack By.......Wolverfrog! (Who?)

Pokemon Law Enforcement is a game in which you play as a newly graduated Police Officer trying to clean up the crime-ridden region of Anjonn. The only help you recieve is from your trusty Growlithe, and the other few coppers scattered throughout the region. Expect trouble around every corner, and be prepared.

-No Pokemon league

-Growlithe as starter

-Play as a police officer

-New region

-No Diamond/pearl pokemon

I have already started work on a little bit of it, just the first "Town", also known as the only Prison in the whole of anjonn.
I am an apt scripter, and have managed to script some text, Give pokemon etc etc, but i could do with some expert help with things like making the pokedex appear, or, the actual Pokemon menu.

I am absoulutly terrible at mapping, but have managed to put together a basic idea of what I want the place to look like using advmap.

I'm afraid i have simply no idea how to edit overworlds or sprites, so i shall need help there.

If you are interested, post here.

Thanks

i like the sound of this, but i think you need more of a story than just "your a new recruit" but if something epic happens, like the prison blows up and all of team rpckets members escape and start stealing pokemon and using them for evil deeds etc. then i think this hack could be very good. if you're using pokemon fire red then i believe the "add pokemon menu" is checkflag 0x828 (or addflag, or something along those lines, but 828 is correct i believe) if you google "pokemon fire red flags" then you should be able to find a list of all of them.


good luck with this hack, i'll be looking out for further updates

I agree that you need a bit more of a storyline (maybe there is some major criminal activities?) Can you catch Pokemon? As playing through with only a Growlithe/Arcanine will be quite difficult.

I can help map if you are using existing tiles and maps (or if you can insert the maps) For some reason whenever I try to insert a map the ROM crashes in Advance Map, if you could tell me what I'm doing wrong then I can do it myself.

PM me if you want help.

Good luck!

I like the name of your Pokemon Hack.

Kind of like my old hack, Pokemon Police. Good job, but practice your mapping.

It's ok, I can still help, but I'll need to do a lot more planning. PM me if you want help. (I'm more than happy to help, it's just so you know I can't insert maps but I'm going to ask around.)

Again good luck!

Right, i'm getting on with it, i have made a policeman OW (No police women yet sorry) and that works fine. Also, i have a script that makes the seargent at the begginning give you a lv growlithe. I'm currently attempting to script a early on team rocket even, more pics on the way soon.

I may move this into the progressing hacks forum, as i have way more than 4 screenshots for it.

this just reminds me of law and order and other law enforcement shows. I am a good mapper so expect me to help. Also i am working on a banner for this. I found a better pokemon to use than growlithe. It is... WEEGEE.

Damn, my cleanup wizard deleted my files on this hack by accident....

Sorry guys, It was starting to get decent, with a starter growlithe that was given to you rather than the ball, a police officer OW for the protaganist, and I had just finished a team rocket script at the beggining, on your way to the next town one ambushes you. He was a special team rocket, like your rival. Oh well, I'll start again sometime soon.

NNOOOO... oh well i will weight for commands sir hope you the best of luck

Hah, I like the Rockets in prison. All they need is some hammers to bust up the rocks with. (Too bad it'd be too complicated to have OWs of that, huh?)

Good luck with this, I like the concept. For me, the most fun parts of the original games was the Team Whatever plots (although I wanted to join the teams... eh, c'est la vie), so a whole hack dedicated to fighting an organized crime team should be loads of fun. If you need an OW for a female officer, let me know, because I'm going to be making a Jenny for my own hack and would be glad to share the OW when I've finished it. It won't have the running-shoe animations, but it'll be a start.
