Stuff
So this'll be my ehh...... 3rd attempt at COMPLETING a hack, I started 2 hacks before, but never got around to doing them and ended up losing the files when I got a new laptop. Now this hack will be the only one I will work on, I will release it when it is completely done. I can only work on it on weekends cause of school so it will take some time, but I will try to post a update every week.

STORY
Spoiler:
Years after Ash Ketchum defeated the Pokemon League and has become the Pokemon Master, A new era was beginning...... the time of darkness.
Team Rocket created a symbiote; a living form of manifestation that can take control of its hosts. But little did they know that after recapturing Mewtwo and testing out the symbiote that everyone in the Rocket Headquarters would be massacred. Now, Ash has been called back to Kanto to put a stop to Mewtwo and the army of shadow Pokemon, but upon reaching Pallet Town, he realized just how much the landscape has been changed...
PLOT: You must go collect symbiote shards scattered around Kanto in order to summon and put a stop to mewtwo, but each shard is guarded by a empowered shadow pokemon sent by mewtwo himself.

Looks very cool. I am going to play it when its out. PS. if you need some help in mapping a may can help you :D Pm me if you need help.

Lucifer-san November 15th, 2013 4:30 PM

This looks quite nice and I'm liking the basic story idea behind this. The maps aren't too bad and look quite nice so far so just keep on working how you are. I can't judge the scripts but I'm liking the Shadow Pokemon especially Shadow Jolteon but Shadow Lugia should be fixed somewhat to look more like Lugia. I'm actually anticipating this so keep up the good work man.

Yea, I like the outcome of shadow jolteon and arcanine, tho they were basically a re-color and a few tweaks XD Got any suggestion on which pokemon I should add a shadow version of? Anyways, thank you for your time to check this out :)

No need to waste your time on making your own tiles, download some HGSS or BW/B2W2 tiles if you want... :)

I actually like making or modifying tiles, the only thing I dispise is the inserting of tiles itself, it can be a pain {XD}

Sniper November 15th, 2013 4:59 PM

Oh wow, I like how that big tree inserted. (The one where celebi is on)
Also that dark mewtwo ^^ I like the tiles and yeah, inserting it is the hardest part.
So cool, no Gym leaders? We'll see how you implement things with together with
the badges and the flags to be set on the trainer card. Good luck on completing your
hack! Hope this another attempt will succeed.

qaz015393 November 15th, 2013 5:39 PM

Story, tiles, screenshots all look amazing. Looking great. Will keep on eye on this hack.

dhogan November 15th, 2013 5:46 PM

That title screen looks awesome :)

DarkRisingGirl November 15th, 2013 5:47 PM

This looks very nice & I think you're good at tiles. Btw is tha Ash's Pikachu in the picture battling Shadow Lugia? If so, I think you should put the gender as Male. A lot of signs point to Ash's Pikachu being a Male.
Goodluck with this!

Well there never was a definitive gender {XD} but sure, im trying to make it so its basically Ash from the anime, currently re-creating Pallet Town, will post a update as soon as im done

TheNightEon November 15th, 2013 6:20 PM

This hack seems really cool and I can see it going places, PS: if you need a beta tester, hit me up :D

tanjim13 November 15th, 2013 8:23 PM

There is definite gender. He was affected by Tsutaaja's Meromero (Attract) and Tsutaaja was confirmed female.

Anyways... if this is what you call "sucking at tiles" I don't think I want to see tiles that you would be satisfied with, because I would be taken aback by beauty.
Even those "suck" tiles are fantastic.
As everyone, I like the shadow Pokemon pretense. Keep it up.

Drk.Legendary November 16th, 2013 3:18 AM

Wow this is one of the hacks with the best graphics. Im gonna keep an eye on this hack

Hound of Justice November 16th, 2013 4:07 AM

Wow a new hack, i love those graphics Pallet Town looks cool the only things i didnt like are the shadow mews and shadow lugias sprites a bit

Since this hack is about darkness and shadow pokemon will Giratina and Darkrai make an appearence? xD

Well, since more shadow pokemon got the most votes, I'm gonna go make some more and post them as soon as I'm done

Probably will replace flareon cause I never liked flareon XD

http://imageshack.us/a/img35/8084/xieo.png
Looks a bit derpy, i'll rework it later.

Alright, an then theres this, mid way through the story you will be given a "symbiote shard" which you can use to change Pikachu into
http://imageshack.us/a/img818/7397/u1sw.png
Again, I dont like how this turned out so i'll rework it later

The small problem I see with the Pikachu idea is, Ash would never use anything on his Pikachu. If he won't even use a Thunder Stone to evolve it, why would he use something as dangerous as a Symbiote Shard? If we're playing as Ash, we should be thinking like Ash.
