Created By Pokemon Sky SD and
Orinjmate

This is a ROM hack set in a none existant region, called Austra.



The basis of the Pokemon - Sky SD is that your character is travelling this region, collecting the badges of the region. Through out the region there is a group of people, attempting to capture the Black Rayquaza that is said to enhabit the Region.


Your story begins on a small island, known as Kangaroo Island, the home of Prof. Oaks Austra Lab.
Your Dad has gone out that morning to gather things together for you to begin your journey as a trainer.
These include your starter:-

Swablu, Growlithe, and Phanpy.

Your Dad also gives you Trainers, a Town Map, 5 Poke Balls and a Pokedex.

He then asks you to investigate a mysterious group of people that steal Flying-Type Pokemon. He also mentions that he has asked two others to help him.

And so the adventure begins.


To Include: -

- New Sprites for many Pokemon.
- New Overworld sprites
- New Trainer Sprites
- Whole New Region
- The Mysterious 'Team Sky'
- A Black Rayquaza
- New HM to replace Rock Smash
- New Tiles
- Skateboard replacing the Bicycle
- Special Forms of the starters which are catchable later in the game. ~ Such as the Crowned Altaria
- Re-Vamped Pokedex
- A Series of Special optional events, based around specific Pokemon.

Tropical Sunlight June 3rd, 2010 5:19 AM

The screenshots look good so far! :)
What exactly does Fisherman Dave sell to you?

DJ. Yabup 99 June 3rd, 2010 5:21 AM

I'm the other co-creator btw ;) also, the whole game isn't going to be on tropical islands, that is only for the beginning and later on once you have surf. :)

Fisherman Dave is a character inserted too sell you fishing rods at different points in the game. i.e. Sells you the old rod, ect.

edit:Watch the double posting ;)

arcanineflames23 June 3rd, 2010 6:16 AM

Hey I have got to say, this game is AWESOME! I find this game so good! I really want to try it!

PokemonSkySD June 3rd, 2010 6:30 AM

thx for the support, we'll get a beta out as soon as possible, but there still a way too go.

arcanineflames23 June 3rd, 2010 6:31 AM

thx arcanineflames23! :)
beta 1 coming out soon!

hun7er June 3rd, 2010 7:03 AM

This looks good so far.The only thing i can't understand is the 3 starters.Phanpy can beat growlithe and swablu and they don't have any move that is super-effective on phanpy.I think that you should change swablu.

altariaking June 3rd, 2010 7:05 AM

NOOOOOO!!!!!
keep swablu :<
looks good so far, keep it up!

arcanineflames23 June 3rd, 2010 7:09 AM

Your welcome mate, Waiting for beta one! By the can I be your beta tester?

PokemonSkySD June 3rd, 2010 7:11 AM

Growlithe get beat by Phanpy.
Phanpy's STAB is immune against Swablu.
Growlithe is more powerful that Swablu.

Thx for the comments.

Also the map for Edge Town is up for those that want too have a look.
The home of Taillows, and a single Swellow. The first major event in the story line is here.

EDIT: Arcanine yes, as soon as the next part is completed

They aren't supposed to be super effective against eachother as ur rival doesn't have one. Pokemon Project SD, please take that out thx.

arcanineflames23 June 3rd, 2010 7:26 AM

Yayyyyyyy!!!! Thank you you both!

DJ. Yabup 99 June 3rd, 2010 8:17 AM

same as above for the sandstorm music
same as above for route 38 gold/silver

The screenshots look really good, but... *looks at features* I don't see why you need new sprites for "all the main pokemon," unless by "main" you just mean the starters. If that's all, then yeah, sounds pretty cool.
Now based on the story, it looks like you're reusing the Oak's Parcel script. Bleh. It's interesting to pick and choose and reuse certain scripts, but I don't know that such an easily recognizable script so early in the game needs to be in a hack. But I digress.
The hack looks like it has potential. I look forward to seeing it completed.

I like your realisticness, but for new sprites we mean very small changes (other than starters and rayquaza) and we wanted to keep the Oak's parcel script, we could get rid of it if we wanted but we like the fact you have to go back to the beginning to get the pokedex, also it triggers the grunts blocking the way on king island to disappear which works really well. Other than that thanks :)

Edit: We may change the name, picture and description of Oak's Parcel to 5 pokeballs or 1 i'm not sure on the amount.

simdu68 June 3rd, 2010 12:21 PM

looks really good so far!! great screens with great graphics ;)
but, the starters are maybe not well balanced enough......
usually the starters should be in a circle all three in inferiority and minority(I'm sure I have a grammar mistake in this phrase, sorry for my bad english :S)
and I can't see it in these 3 starters......
but I think it's still alright ;)
well so, looks great, keep up the good work ;)

PokemonSkySD June 3rd, 2010 12:28 PM

Thanks.
the starters are ment too be three different ways too play the game, as the rival is not going to have one.

Nikolai Fox June 3rd, 2010 1:09 PM

I like the look and sound of this hack.
I'd like to join as an assistant scripter.

Where I don't be one of your scripters, but if you think of some unorthodox scripts that you're not sure you can do, I can think of ways to do them. (Thinks like re-challengable trainers, a rock climb HM, stuff like that).

Just PM me if you're interested/ have any questions (Y)

Very interested seen as I am not much of a good scripter myself. I will PM you.

frigid June 4th, 2010 1:35 AM

Sure, you can. we'll send you a patch once the part we are currently working on is complete.

The Offical Beta will be released once the Second City is complete, this includes the Second Gym. A special optional event will take place there, in the urban sprawl.
You'll have too wait and play it too find more. ;)

Don't send a patch. They tend not to ever work fully properly for me. or maybe that is just me.

Ps. us two are alpha testers not beta testers :)

PokemonSkySD June 4th, 2010 5:30 AM

Oops, ment too say file.
Also working on the Swablu Sprite at the moment. Ideas?
