Pokemon: DarkGrey

Hack of Ruby



Story:
October 15th, 2000
It was my Birthday that day. I was 5 years old, at the park with my Father, when a creature attacked us. It was Grey, with a Purple tail. It attacked us without warning, until I fell to the ground. It prepared it's final attack, but my Father...he intervened and was struck down. A group of people then appeared, all wearing a Red letter R on their tops. They ignored me and my father, and proceeded to attack the Creature. They followed after it, leaving me and my father, injured. I awoke to find myself in a hospital bed, fully recovered. My father, however, was not so lucky.

October 15th 2010
I turn 15 today, meaning I am now old enough to leave home for my Pokemon journey. I will get revenge, revenge on the Pokemon that killed my father. Well, my Mum is calling me. It's time to go.


Features:
The Return of Team Rocket!
Travel the region of Nameless!
Battle and catch new Pokemon, as well as old ones!
Stuff happens!
No more Elite 4, instead battle Team Rocket Executives!


Screens:


Videos:


Any Help Needed?
Some tile and overworld makers would be really good, as would a fakemon spriter who is willing to do two frames, backs and icons, as well as fix up the failure sprites I made myself, and someone who is good with naming fakemon and towns would be helpful too, you wouldn't want to battle a Pokemon called noname in noname town, even if the region is called Nameless xD

Current Progress:
Updating tiles and trying to improve what I had already done.

And two alternative menus!

Kevin August 9th, 2010 8:52 AM

So you got Samson's sprites, eh? The CSS is real thin, make it wider. The tiles are not bad, and I like new inserted sprites.

jessemac_7 August 9th, 2010 6:39 PM

The custom pokemon look really nice

Tomackze August 9th, 2010 7:35 PM

Will this have D&P moves? I only ask because it does have D&P pokemon...

Satoshi Ookami August 9th, 2010 11:26 PM

You've got pretty good story.
Screenies also look decent. I wish you good luck =)

Flandre Scarlet August 10th, 2010 6:42 AM

The CSS's transparency really effects the screenshots on the first post IMO, but other than that it's coming along nicely. Good job. :]

Cynder The Bloody Angel August 10th, 2010 6:49 AM

It's "beta", not "beat".

ANYWAYS, Altaria King, your OW and graphics are awesome.
However, your maps look a bit... empty to me.

But that doesn't matter, I just hope that you would fill in the
empty space in the maps before releasing the beta.

Good luck.

Ok. I haven't inserted new music yet so you'll have to wait for the beat.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm not too great a mapper, especially with cities, but I'll probably go back and edit all the maps later anyway.

Nice Hack altariaking! I can see that you're quick on giving updates
and I love it!

Nice tiles you're using! And the graphics too, gotta love them!

Wish you good luck with this hack! :D

DialgaPalkiaGiratina August 16th, 2010 3:25 PM

This is cool! But could you maybe no use my nickname in the credits and use my real Username :)

Neeb August 16th, 2010 5:21 PM

in general does not convince me the graphic environment,
I like the new sprite, I like to see an environment
more suitable


bladewarz August 16th, 2010 8:33 PM

WOW this look really awesome. but turtwig and starly looks like clowns :D

I don't see the resemblance, neither turtwig nor starly has a red nose.

Overworlds still to be changed...

soulkaze August 20th, 2010 5:08 AM

Do you still need an OW spriter and a fakemon spriter?

Um there's a small mapping error in this screen! See, the counter shadow should be below it, not above it! Just compare it to other object's shadows and you'll see what I mean!

I would love to help with spriting and mapping, but I just have barely any time as it is...
But I could help you name some fakemons and towns if you'd like...
