Pokémon Saiph 2 - The VytroVerse Part 3 (Tech Demo Available!)
 

Before we start off!


Hey everyone, I am here once again with a new gba romhack project!
This time around I am making a sequel to my first romhack (and Part 1 of my series), Pokémon Saiph!
This is Part 3 of my romhack series, The VytroVerse! (Hack made from: "1636 - Pokemon Fire Red (U)(Squirrels)")
Parts:
Spoiler:
Part 1: Pokémon Saiph
Part 2: Pokémon Sors
Part 3: Pokémon Saiph 2
Further parts will be added in the future!


Story (Spoilers)


Spoiler:
The game takes place 3 years after the events of Pokémon Saiph and a few weeks after Pokémon Sors, however it's not too connected to the latter.
Micah along with Darlo, are returning from a formal event which Micah was invited to as Colen's Champion and the Co Leader of the world's first ITP Group. (International Threat Prevention)
On the flight back, they get into an mysterious accident which results with the plane crashing. Micah and Darlo evacuates everyone, however they themselves ended up being stranded in the faraway Regris Region! Micah is being treated by a Regrissian (The word used for someone from Regris just to be clear) girl and starts his mission to find Darlo, find a way to connect with Lori in Colen and a way to return home... However as always things aren't as simple as that. Little does Micah know, that he is about to be involved in something even he hasn't seen 3 years ago... (or Asher a few weeks ago for that matter)

The game follows the story of Micah Kusei, and uses a singular protagonist. Once again, this is a artistic (wiritng? idk) choice to have a much more coherent story!
Story segment will be expanded later!


Features (Will get expanded later!!)

  • A new region to explore, Regris!
  • A Custom soundtrack (tracks from various, media remixed with a B2&W2 Soundfont, not my own compositions, “official soundtrack” in yt vids just means audio you can actually hear ingame)
  • The Complete Fire Red Upgrade as the game engine... finally! (Items, moves, abilities, Pokémon, pss split etc. Updated to the latest standards)
  • Proper Battle AI
  • Multiple modes to play the game in! (Randomizer, Lvl scaling, exp all etc. These modes can be combined as you please!)
  • For the dedicated players: Hero Mode!
  • Once again a full PokéDex now including gen 8 too!
  • DexNav (Not in the Tech Demo)
  • Side Quests (Only 1 in the Tech Demo)
  • Soaring
  • Ancient Regression (It works like Mega Evolution)
  • Day/Night System and possible D&N events (the emulator needs to support RTC)

Hero Mode
Spoiler:

Hero Mode is essentially the game's "Hard Mode" with various changes applied to your gameplay!
(It's also randomizeable)
  • Trainers Scale based on your highest levelled Pokémon
  • Forced Set Mode
  • Harder Boss Battles
  • Saving tied to Pokémon Ranger like save spots (no start menu saving)


Screenshots (Will get updated later!)

Obviously lol
As a little spoiler
Spoiler:
There are 6 parts planned


As to the starters, you will see lol
(There will be 3, no singular stuff like in Sors)

PCG - Pokémon September 16th, 2021 7:32 AM

I'm so excited for this hack, Vytron! Hope you finish it soon ;D

Inner Rhymes September 16th, 2021 9:57 AM

Wohooo! Can't wait to hear you go wild on the music in this one!

J. D. Guy September 16th, 2021 10:09 AM

Out of curiosity, are there going to be any distinguishing elements/aspects in this game to help make some of the Pokemon stand out? Some examples of what that could be include fan-made Pokemon, or fanmade Evoltions or Mega Evolutions, or even overhauled movepools that include Egg Moves in the Level-up and/or Base Stat rebalances.

I see that this will be an "all the Pokemon in one Region" fangame, but I have found that those tend to be weaker in many ways (including due to things like Region overcrowding) to fangames with more curated Pokedexs that can then spend time adding nuance to the roster that's included.

New species expanding already existing ones isn’t planned.
As to the full Dex, I might not make the region force in all 890+ species in a single National Dex, as I might have a regional dex with less and make the rest available outside of the dex like in S&M (if I do this I will hand out a Nat Dex in the postgame but yeah you get the idea)

Hermione Granger September 16th, 2021 7:55 PM

Something I would suggest, you could incorporate difficulty levels instead of just one single set one to offer player choice.

Mahian23 September 17th, 2021 12:12 AM

Do you have plans to add an Ev-Iv Display Screen?

Maybe, the IVs are kinda displayed but I might make it more streamlined

I love it

OmegaGiratina September 18th, 2021 6:14 PM

A Full Pokedex with Generation 1 through 8 you say?! Oh boy! Will it include the Pokémon from both the Isle of Armor, and the Crown Tundra from Sword & Shield too? Do you also mean by all the Generation 8 Pokémon
Including the starters too? i would be happy to play your game if it has it all!

considering RadRed has all the mons and both Saiph 2 and RadRed uses cfru, I think its a yes.

LazyLucario007 September 19th, 2021 2:00 AM

Will it have other forms of pokemon like eclipsinging in pokemon sors

Not overcrowding a single region would definitely be a good thing to do.

RenElite September 19th, 2021 7:17 PM

I hope this game has a longer post game, considering Sors is really short.
