Pokemon Imperial Contingency
The first major hack project by Edens Elite; Pokemon Imperial Contingency Intro I always loved pokemon. Pokemon Blue was my first ever video game, and Pokemon Black was my most recent, and through every game, I always thought "I wish I could make my own." And to my delight, I one day accidently came across a hack in which somebody replaced a OW with Sonic, eventually I found Light Platinum and finally here. Today, I am here to present my hack Pokemon Imperial Contingency. It's about a king who was kidnapped and it is up to the prince to save him. Yeah, yeah. Sounds unoriginal, but if you want to hear where it gets good, head to the story section. Without further ado; I present my hack. Story Spoiler:
Features * No Trade Evolutions * New Bags, OWS, Trainers etc. * Complete overhaul of Kanto Region with a new world map. * Night and Day System * New Pokemon. With Custom, Unova and Sinnoh. * New Items * A Choice of 16 Starter Pokemon * New Tilesets * Loads of funny, Subtle and not-so-subtle Memes and References. * Loads of Legandaries available throughout the story, each with their own event (Yep, they are all in there but some don't fit in the story.) * Some unique shops such as Berry, Fossil and more. * A Trade Center, A big hall where loads of NPC want to trade. * More fun wild pokemon. Let's face it. Where all sick of Pidgey and Rattata. * Loads of old (and technically new) characters and OWs such as Lucas and Wes, plus LOOOOOOADS more! *Plus many more! Possible Features Features that MIGHT be included eventually. *All Pokemon are B/W Sprites. Actually making good hedway with this project so it might happen, but i'll insert them last. *Behaviour Byte, to make windows emit light at night. *Skills Idea. Basically, I want you to think runescape. Ellaborate scripts etc can be put together to make it fancy etc. and I've got a few ideas but the basics are: I want to be able to have a item (e.g Pickaxe) that I may use on a particular point to (in this example) mine. I thought this may be possible as the idea is similar to headbutting a tree, I think a behaviour byte could do this, the next part is a system in which every 4 or 5 'mines' You level up and are notified with a little message 'your level 5' etc etc. I have a few ideas to spice it up such as having woodcutting, fishing and cooking. Where you can make a fire and cook the fish etc. You see where I'm going with this. I was also going to have prizes for when you reach a certain level ETCETCETCETC. This will be explained more when it gets developed. Media Spoiler:
Bugs Will update when I release an Alpha Team Welcome to the Team section. I'm not amazing at hacking yet. But I am not one of those "Complete my hack for pl0x!!!11!1!" Guys. My only major weakness at the moment is scripting and I will be working on that. To join just PM me or leave a comment etc. and say what your applying for, What Time Zone your in (Or just country if you don't know), How much time you have for this hack and proof of work. I retain the right to kick anyone out or to stop anyone from joining this little crew as I see fit. No offense but NO NEWBS! I have nothing against them except, I have a basic skill in most things so there is no need for them. Avaliable Jobs Scripter - Mostly just generically. Script Developer - To help make scripts for things such as the possible features. Mapper Consultant - I'm trying my best to do this myself, so I would only need you when I get really stuck or something doesn't work. Tile Inserter - I can do it, but I suck at it. Spriter - I'm ok at spriting but not great. Can be specific to one thing if you want, but I need a OW, Back Sprite and Trainer Spriter. ASM Hacker - Do I need a reason as to why I need help with this? Don't worry there won't be a MASSIVE amount of this in the hack. Song Inserter/Looper - I might learn how to do this soon, for now though; I supply the .MIDs you insert them. Easy...;) More to be added if I remember any. Current Team Members Edens Elite - Team Leader, and other stuff... M.L - Mapper Consultant, Script Developer Downloads None as of yet. Credits Credits section. Speaks for itself. Also thinking of a fun idea where I turn one of the Sevii Islands into 'Credits Island' with NPCs saying stuff like 'I'm Eden's Elite, I made this hack' etc. Me, Obvs - Made the Hack Nurse Barbra - Her ROM-Base, Even if it did F*** up 90% of the outdoor tiles... Wesley FG - For being my inspiration, and also inserting my World map and creating some of my trainers through commission. DavidJCobb - Helping me MASSIVELY, and a nice guy as well. Jambo51 - Also a great help :) Thanks for reading. Will be adding a beta as soon as possible. Also if anybody is any good at making animated GIFs, I would REALLY appreicate a support bar.

Reserving the space, Just in case ;)

Hm. I don't think I've ever seen a mix of pokemon and king&prince sorta stories...
The mapping does need more work, although I can't be a consultant. Althoguh they aren't bad, personally I think more could jump out of it. And I love the skills idea, though I think thats been tried(and failed) |
thanks for sharing。。。is a good game!I like it
sorry for bad english |
Looks good... story is great and tiles (they look farmiliar) but the maps are a bit empty
|
The tiles look familiar as i used a rom base which I forgot to mention (Ill add credits in a sec) the maps in those screenshots are supposed to be empty and big, to give the impression of a big castle. Thanks for the feedback though guys.
|
I love the story very original! I really like where this is going so keep it up!
|
Updated the log; woukd appreciate if anyone has an answer to my problem.
|
The tiles are cool here, and I'd say your big problem is maps and scripts. This is not gonna go anywhere without scripts, so you should show some off if you have them. The maps are way too empty and have tile errors with the trees (some of them are missing side overlaps). The graphics are good, as well as the story, but that's it. Being blunt, this needs work.
|
Like I said before, this section of the game is supposed to be big and empty, as you move on, it will improve. Thanks for the feedback though.
|
In fairness if you own a castle your either rich or posh (no offence to no-one) but you'd have a giant garden or something to fill up the space, just to show off .. make like flower gardens or statues(more) or something as a filler to all that space.
|
I dunno why, but that lake looks weird to me.
Maybe have to pokemon in it be under a layer of water, so they don't look like they';re floating? |

And ive update quite a few things since the screenshots, a screenshot update and video will be up on the weekend. |
The history looks great, the grafic of the bag too.
The tiles are very nice, but the scans are also empty. keep it up! |
Looking good, I think this one should be interesting. 16 starters is a whole lot, good luck scripting that. I like the Dragonite-themed bags, they look really good. My favorite part might be the banner and the CSS though, the thread looks good.
|
Great new guys! Ive got back up and further on my hack, plus thanls to the amazing DavidJCobb, I have solved the issues that previously plagued me. All I need to do is create a few OWs and chuck in some scripts and we'll be ready for an alpha!

And then in the next game I gave the player access to my Debug Room. If you legitimately make those things, and then give it to the player exactly how it was during development, I think it's fun doing stuff like that. It's like a "behind the scenes". |
Title made me go in the thread xD
and the Hero's Shirt.... seems to have the Leaf Village Emblem from Naruto. |
Hmm... Its an interesting concept. I'm expecting a lot from this story. It's actually quite original.
Here's some things I noticed while reading; I'm not very "Dig-Deepy", so I probably didn't notice those little things others might have. -The storyline has some minor grammatical errors. Just go through it again and you'll be fine. -Some small mapping issues too: I center myself around mapping and tiles, so things like that incomplete building in the beginning send shivers down my spine. And not in a good way. I don't mind the castle, since I get what you're trying to do. But I would appreciate more castle-y tiles ;) -The last screenshot made me cringe. Nice, straight lines are never in nature. Unless you count those weird Fibonacci things... -Your scripting looks fine to me. -The bag made me laugh. Nice job. -The paths don't really match everything else... If you need me to I guess I could try and make you some, but you could keep them. -Keep up the good work. Keep chuggin'! |
Good New Everyone! I've more or less completed the graphics for the alpha, I just need to do the scripting. If there is anyone out there that can script please drop me a VM, and I may be able to release an Alpha this week!

Love the the idea, seems original. I like the slowking hat for the crown. Hope you find some people to help with the project (i would offer but i dont know anything about creating a hack). Can't wait to see the final product
|
THREAD UPDATE: Added more screenshots. Planning on adding more videos soon, but they are low priority.
|
It may be a good idea to add a disclaimer at the start saying that this game's saves are not compatible with FireRed saves and vice versa.
|
Thanks, I'll probably add that in when I release the alpha (Which is coming closer and closer btw. Just debugging and adding scripts.)
Edit: Updated the thread with more stuff for you guys. I'm pretty much just doing the scripting now. Sorry that nothings happened for a while but I've had some personal problems getting inthe way. Let me know what you think of the changes. |
Ah this looks like it'll turn out to be great!
I'll be keeping an eye on this, I wish I could help but my abilities are non-existant as I've never had a chance to look at the hack software used to create these games. Best I could do is come up with some storylines for events and what-not, but I'm sure you've got that covered already. Good luck with the game, I'll be supporting it from the Alpha Start! |
Could I become a mapper and creative consultant? I have experience as both and although I'm not very good at mapping, I'd enjoy mapping for this because I enjoy mapping anyways. PM me if you're accepted (or not) and I'll post you a tileset that I found either here or on the internet. Unfortunately, I don't know who made it. I wish I did because I'd give credit, but I don't so...
|
Hey Eden. This looks very impressive! You have some great graphics skills! You must have used JPAN's engine because you have a lot of OWs with different palettes their. I like the portraits that pop up as you talk to. There are small issues that you have already pointed out. I'd like to see more from you!
|
I wanna be beta Tester..
if beta testers are those who test betas and find bugs :) |
Quote:
Actually, I accidentally created a boss pallette that covered about 11 Pokemon OWs :). @Eksdi You can beta test, when a beta come out :). |
looks awesome can't wait for a release of some sort. :)
|
Dude.... sooooo epic.
Please please PLEEEASE don't abandon this hack. It looks so great. I hate when people have great looking hacks with great ideas and new things I have never seen before, then I notice the thread has been dead for quite a long time.
|
Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I haven't been hacking for a while, cuz of a crapton of A-Level work. Oh, and Skyrim :). I plan on starting again soon though.
|
Very cool buddie!!! ^_^ I desire luck for you!!! waiting for beta!!! i love so much the heroine sprite!!! >.<
|
The story seems new and refreshing(Love the ideia of the prince), the tiles are good, i don't see a error in the screenshots
So all i can say is to you continue with the good work :D |
the backpack is very good and the events that have placed me look good, I like that you can choose between all the different initial pokemons sagas, however I would stay with Charmander xD, anyway very good game bro. I think even left change some rugs and the like, in order Continues hope so.
|
This is my first time actually commenting on a thread; this looks amazing! Please stick with it, you have me very eager to give it a try. Best of luck :)
|
Hey guys, sorry for the lack of progress. I've quite simply not been hacking for a few months. However I started back this week and have already made significant progress, I'll post a vid in the next couple of days and with a bit of luck hope to push an Alpha in the next couple of weeks :).
|
Great game, the maps arent that great i like the starter event an the dragonite statue. id be happy to help with mapping? love the original storyline too.
|
Ok, some good news and bad news. I was VERY close to an Alpha. Yes, you read right; was. Something messed up and I'm having to start anew. Luckily, I still have access to the resources, so it shant take as long as starting all over again, but it has delayed my progress massively. I just thought I would let you know, it is coming, it just might take a while.
|
looks cool. i'm excited to download it
|
Im really interested in this hack its always nice to see something different+ i luv dragonite
Cant wait to get my hand on the download :D |
this hack promising
I like the story as well as screen expect a beta! |
This game looks cool! Graphics look nice. Is there a spot for beta testers? if so, pm me, id like to take the job.
|
Well I am proud to be able to inspire you,
a really good friend, I like the story through different so I say to take care of the maps, and if possible put more details. great job |
Love the game! def gonna play it! How's the progress coming since u lost everything?
|
Looks great!
Once I find the IPS, I'l play it for sure. The plot looks great, but maybe you should shorten the title a bit |
Seems like a nice hack. A couldn't help but notice though that mallum is latin for evil. I kinda laughed at that.
|
Simply put, I love everything about your work with this hack so far. Best of luck with it! You have my support all the way.
|
Cool! This game looks very nice. I'll be keeping an eye on this one. Sorry if the last post was a month ago. It wouldn't let me go to page 3 and check. Every time I clicked it took me to page 2.
|
Has an alpha been released? This game looks too promising to pass up. Such a complex story-line.
|
Omg, what happened to this hack? It looks too good to have been stopped. I want to play this badly
