Ok...... the plot seems somewhat interesting with the backstory.

The tiles seem a bit bland in my taste. Some of these look plain and flat except for the river. But it's good though.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll work on making it look less flat and bland :p

unova starters <3 I'm waiting for this !

These screenshots very good,I love this game,so I am looking forward to download

Razoof December 8th, 2012 7:57 PM

Looking forward to this game, sounds interesting.

Saltsas December 9th, 2012 6:45 AM

niiiice this hack seems very interesting.Good luck with it.

atie December 9th, 2012 7:09 AM

Seems like a fine potential hack, I like the feature of the choice of all the starters keep it up !

xWhyNotx December 9th, 2012 7:41 AM

Thank you! I like the feature too. The only problem I can think of is the fact that with 16 pokemon in one room it would be hard to find the exact pokemon you want. I may section it off somehow so fire are in one section, water and grass in others. Still working out the details :p

Or maybe you could make the Prof ask of which region's pokemon you want and place the selected Gen's pokemon on a table or something.

The story sounds interesting enough but few of those tiles look a bit bland.All in all sounds like a promising hack.Hope you get to complete it!

All I do is hack all day everyday :p This is kind of a side project of mine that I'm doing solo aside from my other hack which I'm doing with my team, Pokemon White Noise, which is still in the development stage :p But yes! This hack will be completed! I am a no life and other team members of mine are usually doing something with my other hack so I have free time. :3

Southueki December 9th, 2012 12:05 PM

I'm going to take a step here and request a screenshot of the Dark Gyarados ahaha

Seems so awesome!

Also, are you going to implement physical/special split? And 4/5th gen moves?

The dark gyarados is not complete yet, and you don't have the chance to get it til around the 6th gym. Kind of like Gold or Silver and the red gyarados. When I was little dark Gyarados was my favorite card but it never got as famous as Red Gyarados so I will make him famous :p

I will try my best with the moves. This is a solo project and I can't do everything xD

Sure, take your time, I know how hard it is to work on a project all alone!

Good luck

Heracles4 December 10th, 2012 3:21 PM

Haha seems like it'll be very good.

Also, someone above said that some tiles were too bland, such as the dirt roads and the grass: I don't have a problem with them, though I am irked by the cave. I like the gems and the rocks, but the tiles just seem bad. Maybe get some other ones?

Can't wait until there is a release ;D

It's a little too late for that xD I've completely restarted and I'm creating my own custom tiles for this game :D

This game looks cool so far, and your using the semi-transparant textboxes which is a nice feature.
Will you be using transparant mugshots aswell.
Whos tiles are you using if you dont mind me asking?

I will be using transparent mugshots as soon as I figure out how to make them. I'm using the tiles from the people in my credit. In my opinion, the game looks great, although I completely restarted yesterday. It was for the best. I will be uploading new screenshots after school today! It's only morning where I live right now though xD

lizzzz December 11th, 2012 5:32 AM

You know, I think this hack looks really promising. I like the idea of being able to choose whichever starter you want (it will make it great for multiple play throughs). Good luck in your endeavors, I will be keeping a close eye on this thread ;)

xWhyNotx December 11th, 2012 2:14 PM

Screenshots and tiles are new and improved! ^_^

Volcanix769 December 11th, 2012 2:23 PM

The new screenshots look better.

Wynchester December 11th, 2012 4:55 PM

Seems interesting. I'm going to try it out once you release it. Be sure to let me know when the Beta is ready, but I'll try and check in on this often.


Not to be a neigh-sayer or anything... but you have Dark Gyarados in this, which I get is an existing Pokemon in the TCG, and the idea existed in XD Gale of Darkness... But doesn't a colorful sprite version contradict not only with the name but with the no Fakemon comment? Just curious.

The version of Dark Gyardos I have posted is just the first version. I don't consider Dark Gyarados a fakemon due to the fact that it was a part of the Trading Card Game. It was endorsed by the pokemon company, therefor, it is a pokemon. I was unaware of XD Gale of Darkness' idea. I've honestly never even heard the name.

kebbles December 11th, 2012 5:40 PM

The new screens are nice, theres a few tile errors and the maps are still very bare but im guessing your not done inserting tiles. You should show us something besides maps and boring talking. And you must credit Andrea for the semi-transparant textboxes. Good luck, and replying to your PM the mugshots require ASM its not like the script that you use to make the textboxes.

I am in the process of learning ASM, and when I do I'll be sure to incorporate that. Thanks anyway. Yes, they are still a few tiles that must be inserted, and I'm not the best mapper anyway xD and thanks for reminding me to give credit!

Wynchester December 13th, 2012 2:43 PM

At xWhyNotx, yeah I get what you mean on it having been endorsed... and I even mentioned that in my previous post. It all really depends on how you use it I guess. If it becomes an important part of events or series of events I guess it can work. To be honest, I barely consider Shadow Lugia a real Pokemon because of the fact that it just is an evil version of the angel-feather-colored Lugia we know and love.

But yeah, Pokemon XD is a GameCube game that popularized Shadow (or the more popularly known "Dark") Pokemon. The criminal organization stole Pokemon, manipulated their feelings and emotions, and made Pokemon evil. There were even Special movesets that the Shadow pokemon knew in place of their normal movesets. The attacks were stronger, but often involved a recoil of some sort (but not always). Their goal was to make the perfect Shadow Pokemon that couldn't be turned back to normal. They were almost successful with XD001 (Shadow Lugia). But the main character used a Snag Machine to capture the Shadow Pokemon and by (here is where it gets sappy) loving the Shadow Pokemon, you revert the Pokemon back to their normal form. XD001 is the hardest to revert involving a tedious and annoying process I won't get into, but you can Google. It's a good game that I suggest you try.

If you need a mapper, I can help ya.

Thanks for letting me know that! Maybe I can incorporate something like that like that into my hack, but with a better ending xD I am currently not looking for a mapper due to the fact that I'm trying to make this a solo-made hack. The only other team member I'd take on is a OW spriter/battle spriter


UPDATE ON PROGRESS:
The first town, route the the lake, route to the next town, cave, and the beginning event are complete.
I will be releasing an alfa after I get done the first gym (1st city, 3rd town) There will be 3 major events and up to 25 obtainable pokemon. Expect it to be released around New Years.

xWhyNotx December 14th, 2012 8:31 PM

Mapping is complete for the first release! :D
Below I have the first big city with a gym. Also, it is where you will first encounter the evil team in the region. There reasons for being there? Well, you'll have to play and find out.
Keep in mind that my mapping skills.. well.. they suck. xD

The tiles doesn't really clash together very well. The original Ruby Tiles and the new tiles don't match very well together.

Wynchester December 15th, 2012 7:22 AM

I agree with PokemonMasters... It clashes. But I will still play it for the story.

Also, I can do OWs if you want/need. Just let me know if you decide you want my help. The invite is out there for you at any time.

xWhyNotx December 15th, 2012 7:38 AM

Don't worry guys. I'm gonna work all day today, tomorrow, and if needed monday to get the tiles right! I'm a perfectionist, so yeah!

Mia-san December 15th, 2012 7:58 AM

Nice story-line. I can't wait for the first beta. I like when you can choose from 16 Pokemon. Good luck!

Banjora Marxvile December 15th, 2012 8:22 AM

Definitely agree with the others, changing the Pokemon Centre, that House and stuff that is from the original Ruby would make it so much better (though, I guess I didn't bother to change them when I made that ROM Base, so I don't mind too much :P), hope you do well!

Immorality December 15th, 2012 5:12 PM

i really like the look of this the tiles and charazard in your screen shot looks really nice i hope to see this finished i really hate seeing really good starting hack and they just quit updating it before its finished

ill be checking back for updates on this for sure

xWhyNotx December 15th, 2012 5:18 PM

I've replanned the first release. I am completely redoing all the tiles for the first tileset (all the outdoor things, gyms, pokecenters, and pokemarts) to make the game even better. This may take some time, but trust me, it's worth it.
THE NEW RELEASE DATE
January 16th. (My birthday!)

phstratton December 15th, 2012 6:34 PM

I don't like the houses. They are too dark and don't match the others. ~

godlesplay December 18th, 2012 5:50 AM

yeah, low quality of houses are not good with rest

xWhyNotx December 18th, 2012 6:41 AM

Thanks for the feedback. I'll update this after school. I'm gonna try to make the houses traditional because of the rich history of the town. I will work on this after school and update again on Thursday. I feel as though I post too much on here. Anyway, I'll be working on this all day the next few days!

xWhyNotx December 20th, 2012 4:07 PM

The screenshots are updated!

What's new as of the last few days -
New house
New mountains
New trees
Flowers
Water
Ect..

I thought that Lucas would make an awesome character as the hero. Dawn will be the girl hero! If anybody has a smaller size of them heros that would be great! For now, it's just a LITTLE too big :/

kebbles December 20th, 2012 5:23 PM

Eek i hate lucas so much he looks so loserish lol sorry.
And your tiles are nice, did you insert them yourself?
Your mapping still needs alot of work, they dont look natural.

I honestly like Dawn more, but I'm a guy .____.
As for the tiles, I inserted them myself, which was fairly easy considering they were all about 16 colors. ^-^
Thanks for the constructive criticism. I can always use some! I'm still a beginner at mapping, but I'm hoping to get better ^-^

Yeah im a guy too, to be more accurate I mean like look at his hat lol that says it all..
Yeah I know I've inserted most of them myself, I never liked those trees thats why I choose different ones.
Your mapping really needs to improve, If your going to use such nice tiles you have to use them to their best.
If you need some tips on mapping Pm me or something :)

xWhyNotx December 23rd, 2012 9:35 AM

UPDATE:
It's been a few days since I've updated you on what I've been doing, so here's one.
I haven't really done as much as usual to the Game. There is a good reason for it though. I am slowly but surely learning ASM so I can make this game great!
I've also done some remapping to Mount. Taber. It is now snowcapped and will be incorporated into the game in a way you'll see in screenshots :3
I did it hit a problem... The houses in the beginning town have glitched, I don't know why. I'll work on the problem later, but if I can't fix it I'll need to get new houses.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY BEAUTIFUL HOUSE! D:

This is where the legendary battle between Giratina and Taber took place and Taber saved the world! It will have a major part in the story. It is located Northwest of your hometown. I know the screenshots have Rayquaza in them. I'm inserting a Giratina sprite later tonight :D

Banette` December 25th, 2012 5:05 PM

So, I've been working hard :D well, sorta xD
I've inserted the Giratina Sprite in the beginning as promised (screenshot updated)
I've finished mapping Mt. Taber's Present Day and Past maps
I've finished mapping the first town, inside buildings and out.
I've mapped out the first route for the most part.
All tiles are inserted except for jumpable hills and buildings for other towns.
I updated the male hero's OW to make it smaller. It is no longer oversized! :D

CHARACTER UPDATE! :D
http://imageshack.us/a/img22/5121/69768997.png
Here you go guys. You may notice I've recycled sprites from other games. Well this is because I suck at OW editing :/ lol
Anyway, I thought of ways to incorporate each into the game so people aren't thinking, "HEY! WHAT'S HE/SHE DOING IN THIS REGION?!" xD

Okay.. So..
Cynthia - After being defeated by Lucas/Dawn in the Sinnoh region Cynthia decides to make a fresh start in the Jade region! After training her new pokemon and becoming the champion of the Jade region your father beat her and due to the devastation, she stopped doing major tournament battles. She is now a mentor and will challenge your skills!

Oak and Ash - After Ash's mother came down with an illness and eventually died he was sent to live with Professor Oak. With memories of Ash's mother haunting them everytime they even looked out the window Professor Oak decided to take the job as the Professor in the Jade Region. Ash, wanting to still be the very best, goes with him and is determined to become the Regional champion in the Jade region. He will be one of your rivals throughout the game.

Barry - After revising his skills he eventually defeated Lucas/Dawn as champion and now travels the world. Simple enough :p

Brendan - He is your brother. He has been traveling the region and training for a long time now and is part of the Elite Four as the fire type trainer. Expect a challenge!

Sir Aaron - Sensing that the Silver Alliance is up to know good he comes to the region with his pokemon, Lucario and Pigeot to put an end to their misbehavior. He eventually asks for your help because he sees that you have what it takes to save the world.

Derrick - He's from the same town as you and he's your neighbor. He is your biggest rival in the game.

I just thought this stuff up. If anyone has better suggestions just let me know, but for now, I'll feel like a boss.

Correspondence December 27th, 2012 9:40 AM

The back stories are great but the characters are just a bit random i suppose :\

xWhyNotx December 27th, 2012 9:44 AM

When you play the game they won't seem as random because they each have a part in the storyline xP
except Barry, who I'm considering getting rid of.

xWhyNotx December 27th, 2012 12:39 PM

A new poll is up. VOTE! :D

teejermiester December 27th, 2012 5:36 PM

While some of the tiles are iffy, I understand that they're just placeholders until you can get better ones.

The story was pretty good, but I couldn't help noticing this:
Quote:

Your father, the regional champion, left you and your mother when you were just a small child for reasons unknown. You and your father are distant, but you understand that he had his reasons for leaving.
Haha, I would expect you and your father to be distant if he's been gone for years...

As always this hack has potential, I hope you can bring in some quality that most hacks haven't been able to do lately. Good luck!

Thanks for the support! And trust me, this hack will be something else! I'm great with storylines and I'm an awesome scripter. Those two put together are a weapon when hacking! c; Okay, enough bragging for me! ._.
Were you referring to the lab when your said about the iffy tiles? I'm in the process of fixing that :p The problem is finding one that size or smaller due to the fact that my tileset is full! It will be replaced when I find one! No worries!

Also, what I meant in that part of the storyline is that you don't see your father much but you don't hate him. lol

After training her new pokemon and becoming the champion of the Jade region your father beat her and due to the devastation, she stopped doing major tournament battles. She is now a mentor and will challenge your skills!

Oak and Ash - After Ash's mother came down with an illness and eventually died he was sent to live with Professor Oak. With memories of Ash's mother haunting them everytime they even looked out the window Professor Oak decided to take the job as the Professor in the Jade Region. Ash, wanting to still be the very best, goes with him and is determined to become the Regional champion in the Jade region. He will be one of your rivals throughout the game.

Barry - After revising his skills he eventually defeated Lucas/Dawn as champion and now travels the world. Simple enough :p

Brendan - He is your brother. He has been traveling the region and training for a long time now and is part of the Elite Four as the fire type trainer. Expect a challenge!

Sir Aaron - Sensing that the Silver Alliance is up to know good he comes to the region with his pokemon, Lucario and Pigeot to put an end to their misbehavior. He eventually asks for your help because he sees that you have what it takes to save the world.

Derrick - He's from the same town as you and he's your neighbor. He is your biggest rival in the game.

I just thought this stuff up. If anyone has better suggestions just let me know, but for now, I'll feel like a boss.

Hmm... as a fan of Lucario, I am glad that Sir Aaron has come to the Jade region. But that isn't sir aaron ^^ that is actually Riley from Dppt. He is a descendant of Aaron and uses Lucario too. I know this is very weird a suggestion, but why not recolor Riley to a darker version and give him a Zoroark? ^^

Your suggestion is quite possible! And yes, I realized he's not Sir Aaron after I posted xD I'd recolor him if I didn't suck at it :P If you want to recolor him, be my guest! I'd credit you for the sprite and idea.

This game looks yummy! :) The name "Jade" for your region seems a bit bland. Is there a reason for Jade (sorry, I didn't have time to look through all the pages), but I think you can get a more epic name for your region!

My little sister's name is Jada (Jade for short) and I love her, so I told her I'd base my game around her, literally. c;

Then I guess it shall stay as Riley xD
It's okay

xWhyNotx December 28th, 2012 5:15 PM

I'm officially looking for a good mapper do to the fact that well.. I suck. I'm not trying to make this a team thing, so this is the only skill area I'm looking for.
The new mapper will be the Co-Owner because I understand mapping is a huge part of the project!

If you're interested just PM/VM me! :D

XERIQ8jesta_laghoul December 29th, 2012 9:42 AM

I like the fact you put have overworld sprites much like diamond and pearl. i hope your hack becomes just as interesting as progress is made to eventually make your hack downloadable :)

xWhyNotx December 29th, 2012 4:29 PM

So guys.. It's going to be a slow couple of days of hacking for me.
I'm revising to the tiles to make them more orderly, shading them better, and finishing to insert the tiles up to the first city so I give the game to my new mapper c:
I'll still be working a lot on the hack, just not making progress, if that makes sense.?

Crimson Stardust is my mapper :P
I just bought a $50, 613 page book on ASM full of stuff I could probably just learn online xD Oh well.
Psh, I'm not devoted to this or anything c;

ASM has many different languages, you know? I think the language for Gameboy is Z80 or something.

xWhyNotx December 31st, 2012 10:44 AM

85% done inserting the first tileset cx I'll probably finish that today then hand it off to my mapper! While he does his thing I'll be reading up more on ASM :3 wootwoot

xWhyNotx January 3rd, 2013 2:18 PM

It's been a few days! Hi guys :3
My mapper quit, sadly, but a close friend of mine is going to take over :3 Just letting you know that I haven't quit xD
I love you all :3

xWhyNotx January 6th, 2013 12:52 PM

No, this game is not dead. I am working just as much as usual on it. I'm just not posting about it much. Expect a huge update in a week or so c; and I mean HUGE.

Growl January 6th, 2013 3:03 PM

The tiles impress me, but judging from the second screenshot, your mapping is not perfected and you are pretty untidy. Mapping comes naturally, it cannot be taught. Once your experience level go up, so will your mapping skills. Don't worry.

JubiPop January 7th, 2013 9:07 AM

Looks awesome and i cant wait for the first release, im gonna dl it right away.

xWhyNotx January 8th, 2013 6:57 AM

I know I said I wouldn't be posting here for about a week, but I have an announcement.
With the release of Pokemon X and Pokemon Y in October, I will be incorporating 6th generation pokemon whenever possible! :3
That is all!

stevenkhac January 9th, 2013 2:46 AM

Can i ask this : are there any new moves in this rom hack like flora sky rom such as aura sphere or cosmic beam?
p/s: sorry for my bad english.

xWhyNotx January 10th, 2013 4:43 PM

Yesterday I started making my own tiles for this hack and editing some DS tiles like the lab from B/W and the trees from HGSS for the game. Those are the only things so far that aren't from scratch :3 Here's your sneak preview c;
Nobody use these please -_- They're for this hack only. The only exception would be for mapping contests.

EDIT: Fixed the house.

The lab looks good, but the house colours are bright and ugly.
And those trees are edited virtually the same as mine?
This is looking more like galaxy elements every update..
Not impressed at all and i havnt been for a while i just havnt said anything.
Dont expect me to reply after this, just wanted to let ya know my thoughts.

All we have in common is a tree from a nintendo game O.o and anyone who knows how to tile edit to remove colors would have edited them the way I did.. I'm not trying to argue.. Just stating that.
And I'll fix the house. Thanks for letting me know. It was the first I've ever made from scratch. ._.

I know you said you wouldn't respond anymore, but how is it looking more like your hack? Only similarities I've notice is the trees and the fact he's using DS style OWs just like you. But he's using the Diamond dude, and you're using Hilbert. If you can, please explain, I'm curious lol. Both hacks are gonna be amazing though.

I recently had a problem like this. I was really upset when I found out that you could basically find everything from Silver Legend on the web, except for those ASM and scripts. At first, I was upset. I didn't expect that. I thought Zeno was a hard worker, but if you look from the point of view of the players, most players on the internet don't really care. Good gameplay is what matters! And I think both your hacks are really good :D

PokemonMasters January 10th, 2013 10:57 PM

Your tiles? Sorry but you're wrong. Most of the tiles in your tilesheet weren't made by you. It was made by the Red-Ex and they are private. The tree on the right isn't your tile. Even the houses. At least give credit to the Red-Ex and don't claim them as your own cause you obviously just recolored them. Even if you did resprite them, at least give the Red-Ex credit instead of claiming it as your own. Im sorry, but deny all you want, these tiles are obviously from the Dawn Tileset that you just recolored.

Seriously? The houses and the grass were from the dawn tileset. I'm sorry, but it's ok if you make a tilesheet but if you take tiles (especially if they're private) at least give credit.

AmazingCharizard January 11th, 2013 9:20 AM

Did you quit hacking or why you deleted the description?

xWhyNotx January 11th, 2013 3:03 PM

I made these myself other than the lab and trees which were edited from DS games. These relate to The-Red-Ex's because I referred to them as an example when I made them. Before posting them here I confirmed them with The-Red-Ex to make sure they didn't relate to his tiles too closely. I didn't steal them. You can ask him yourself if you don't believe me. Anyway, I'm off of pokecommunity now. This hack is dead. I may return.. someday.

Leafgreen2itsmyidea January 12th, 2013 6:24 AM

Finally a hack with good graphics in english and then it's stops
WHATEVER

socko January 12th, 2013 5:42 PM

Lol, guys... He's been through a lot, juggling 4 hacks at once. He shares something and get dislike from people who assume things that he actually had permission for. To be honest, the only similarity I found between this hack and Galaxy Elements is the trees, and he's trees are recolored in a far better way than those in GE. If this happened to me, I will discontinue it too...

PokemonMasters January 12th, 2013 5:46 PM

Actually I dont think it's because of that. Well sorta. People kept comparing my hack with Light Platinum too but I've never ever seen this hack up to a point where I actually like it. It's because he keeps restarting with graphics. Changing tiles since the beginning. Your bound to reach nowhere if you keep doing that. Thats how I started too :)
