Pokémon Lightning Yellow
 
2 Attachment(s)
Ok, I have returned and I have decided to finish the hack I started a long time ago.
Name: Pokémon Lightning Yellow
Starter: Pikachu
Rival's Starter: Eevee
Pokémon (newly)obtainable: Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle(all in one game)
Okay, well this is basically a remake of Pokémon Yellow for the GBC into a nice GBA version edited from Pokémon Fire Red.

Beta 0.12 is out(Check the attachment)
New things in 0.11
I edited the wild pokemon data up to pewter city. Everything is exactly like Yellow(except the old man in viridian city) up to pewter city. I reccomend starting a new save as well as not playing past pewter city! Have fun with this!(You can catch Pidgeotto in Viridian Forest)

beta 0.12 released
Okay, I did a little bit more editing, I changed the title screen to have a Pikachu instead of a charizard.http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/4393/pokemonlightningyellow01lg6.png
Also, I fixed a bug or two, but I didn't do much else. So, this is a very small update.

I'm going to add the ability to capture Mew, Celebi and maybe even Jirachi. And I might add in some Johto(who knows). If I decide to, it'll be the first game that starts in kanto and goes through Johto.(Wouldn't that be nice?) You're welcome to suggest new things and tell me of the bugs in the beta.

Incomplete Things(Not Bugs):
IMPORTANT
The beginning where prof. Oak catches the pokemon is screwed up, for he is catching a Weedle. I need help to figure out how to change that into a Pikachu. If you figure this out, and tell me, you will have credits in the making of the game. Very helpful thankyou.

I need to find where the old man's back graphic is in unlz-gba.(same as above)Also, anyway that I could find to edit the old man's back graphic would be helpful.
I think I'm going to change the graphic of the main player(check attachment, tell me what you think of the graphic, and if I should use it or not).

UnHoly February 14th, 2006 1:00 AM

looks awesome im downloadin fire red so i can play just 1 question does pikachu follow u around like in yellow

jaguar February 14th, 2006 1:01 AM

nice remake keep it up looks real good. i want to do a remake of some old pok game but i dont know which tools to use. if you can tell me the tools you use i would be grateful (pm me if u want)

Red February 14th, 2006 1:12 AM

as of yet making it so pikachu follows you around is not planned, however if I can figure out how to add a new event to each map, it might be possible(advancemap doesn't do it right).
The lightball might make the pikachu too powerful, what do you think?

As_Stars_Go_Out February 14th, 2006 1:27 AM

very nice keep it up :) i think you can only get the back pics in FR by using tilelayer pro

to make pikachu follow, you can always edit the sprites with spread (sprite editor)

no you can't. If I was going to make it so pikachu follows you i wouldn't make it some lame sprite edit.

Nox30_04 February 14th, 2006 5:17 AM

Looks great, I look forward to playing it...later in the game will you have pikachu refuse to evolve?

johto_master_2012 February 14th, 2006 2:30 PM

Cool! I soooooo got the hack and it's EXCELLENT!!! THANKS!!
But does the PIKACHU talK? Like "Pika pika!"?

pichu11 February 14th, 2006 2:33 PM

Nice... (Twenty 5 post length

pencilbuddy February 14th, 2006 5:06 PM

what game is this of
yellow

is there a change of the wild pokemon

Nox30_04 February 14th, 2006 9:20 PM

Pencilbuddy...This game is an updated version of Yellow but a hack of Fire Red...it looks great and I believe it will be an overall great hack...however pencilbuddy...please don't double post, against the rules..just edit the previous post you made

I don't think i'll change the cry of the pikachu. As it looks, in the original yellow, the pikachu went "Pika Pika!" when sent out(and wasn't sent out in a pokeball like all other pokes) and when it fainted it went "Chaaaa!", if I edited the cry it would just say "Pika! Pika!" when it died too, which would sound pretty a strange(A pikachu being very happy while fainting...)
BTW, I'm glad you liked it.
So, it seems the second rival battle is perfect.(If you've noticed) The one on route 22.

Actually I was going to tkake out the effect of the thunderstone on pikachu completely so it will say"it has no effect" when you try to evovle the pikachu. Now, that will be the only pikachu in the game. The only thing is, that I'm going to make it so the pikachu can still breed, and therefore pichu can be hatched. I'm just wondering if I should still let pichu evolve...

Nox30_04 February 15th, 2006 8:32 AM

Cool, what about an in game trading for Raichu?(so that it would be possible to still get it) it could be put in where that kid wants like a Nidorino for a Nidorina cause I think thats a useless trade.

brockman5 February 15th, 2006 9:42 AM

Really awesome...if you could get pikachu to follow you it would be..(for lack of a better word) a record!!??! Nice looking though, so it looks like this one will compete with the other yellow remake, but good...keep it up!!

Hiidoran February 15th, 2006 3:03 PM

Really nice, I thought about doing a Yellow Remake and replacing the bike sprite with an ash and pikachu, but then there wouldn't be a bike so... anyway nice job.

revan323486 February 15th, 2006 4:39 PM

Some critisism: Ok.... Some people might look at this (like me) like "Oh no, not another remake waiting to fail..." But for this not to fail, give it something that most remakes don't, like an alternative storyline, like from the shows.

johto_master_2012 February 15th, 2006 6:17 PM

I like your game! I'm a HACK REVIEWER! I AM?

:sean: PIKACHU!! :sean:

okie dokie... Okay, I'll do that eventually I guess...(maybe starting with the 1st jesse & james battle?) Oh, and after you beat the elite four, i might make it possible to travel to johto.

jojotjuh February 16th, 2006 7:28 AM

that would be very cool :)

flash boy February 17th, 2006 4:54 AM

Awesome it looks just like pokemon yellow with improved graphics.

x24 February 17th, 2006 6:18 AM

It would actually be nice to have an actual conversion.. many have tried and gaze up but this one looks very promising.. there were enough differences between the two (RGB and Yellow) to make it worth playing.. Jesse and James, Mew (supposedly in the Jap version instead of Mewtwo), all three starters, different setup for the unknown dungeon.. and theres a few more I'm sure u can add.. Don't bother with the missing 'following' Pikachu, or the sufing game.. its not that big of a feature.. You can base event son the happiness of the first pokemon in your party..

If you're going to change the story or something.. make changes to the Sevii islands.. like different islands.. different items to find and buy and featuring different pokemon (different ones from johto and some from hoenn), celebi or additionals that u make..

yankee_fanatic33 February 17th, 2006 10:22 AM

This looks like a cool hack/remake! I love Pokemon Yellow a lot! I was dissapointed when Nintendo didn't make an official LightningYellow, but I'll like this one, too!

Alistair February 17th, 2006 7:32 PM

Nice hack ya' got going here! You should add some HM Tutors to teach Pikachu to Fly and Surf, 'cause this game obviously doesn't work with Pokémon Stadium.

You should also change the GFX somewhat, to make it feel like Yellow. I don't mean make them like the original Yellow, just improve them.

I was planning to leave the original sevii islands in, and maybe make new levels including some johto.(there's so much empty space in the rom, why not?) For now, I'm just going to script the changes from red/blue to yellow, but later on, it will be possible.

Only if the surfing pikachu is on a surf board.(Like in gsc, if you had a pikachu that knew surf, the surfing sprite looked like a surfing pikachu)
But I might add it in.
And I might change the gfx, I was planning to, but I still have to figure this stuff out...
Expect Another Beta Soon!

Sunflorazumarill February 18th, 2006 9:28 AM

I happen to have a great idea on how to make it so that Pikachu has a better chance of defeating Brock! You should make it possible to get the TM for Iron Tail before reaching Pewter City. That way, Pikachu can know an attack that's great against Rock-types!

Dark_Evan February 18th, 2006 9:48 AM

hmmmm sounds cool

its a great idea

Red February 19th, 2006 2:48 PM

it was never supposed to be easy to beat brock.(especially with a Pikachu...) You can catch either caterpie/metapod or mankey(your choice!) Train them enough and they'll pwn brock, okay you don't need a strong pikachu...(butterfree confusion/mankey lowkick)

Okay new beta out! I'll attach it to the first post and put more info there.

As_Stars_Go_Out February 20th, 2006 8:20 AM

man this rules :) xxxxxxxxxxx

charimon February 20th, 2006 9:14 AM

oak changed allot haha it looks good try to do your best on this one i really liked yellow but my game flipped :( if you want the pikachu's from the intro just ask me i revamped them all ;)

Kurosaki Ichigo February 20th, 2006 9:37 AM

Heh, i'm doing the same kinda thing, but mines alot different but i did do Lightning Yellow, but now changed to Thunder Yellow the stuff is on Pixeltendo.

Red February 20th, 2006 12:56 PM

But I came up with that name first a long time ago!Original Thread
Okay, so I'll go through route 3 and such and edit through to mt. moon, next beta will most likely be to the end of mt. moon.

Kurosaki Ichigo February 20th, 2006 1:02 PM

Yea i know ^_^, btw did you get my PM?

Jodi February 23rd, 2006 1:24 PM

Nice hack sweety! I loved yellow! Are you gonna release a better beta soon?

pkmn_freak February 23rd, 2006 9:59 PM

This looks great, i hope you make it all the way i think everyone has always wanted a yellow remake! (even if picka doesnt follow you the story was great)

johto_master_2012 February 24th, 2006 1:59 PM

Does Pikachu Walk with The trainer you are controlling in the hack?
I don't see pikachu.

pmape09 February 24th, 2006 3:04 PM

ockayethenoo February 28th, 2006 10:42 AM

PROBLEM!!!!
When i click on the file, it opens up my VBA but it says "ussupported parameter etc.."
What's all this then?

djvolcom March 1st, 2006 5:07 PM

up to johto? that would be like just like the series!

megame March 3rd, 2006 10:33 PM

superd188 March 5th, 2006 6:32 AM

Still this game is going to be good

Lt. Surge's Raichu March 5th, 2006 7:13 AM

wow, looks great, this is going to be an awesome game man;P

Live Update King March 7th, 2006 11:42 AM

This is a very good game. Oh and at the end. Mae it so you can get to the orange isands, then jhoto and lasting hoeon regon. Sorry for the bad spelling. and what do you get a full anime.

Karrit March 7th, 2006 12:01 PM

Looks good. I'm looking foward to the beta.

Nyght001 March 7th, 2006 12:19 PM

this game looks good can't wait to see what it looks like while playing.

Evil_Sasuke March 14th, 2006 1:28 PM

I'm having problems with pokemon lightning yellow beta when i patch it to fire red and play it on vb player it doesnt give me pikachu but the original pokemon charmander and the other two. can some help me?

Depends, which version is it?...1.0 or 1.1? cause you should be using 1.0 and are you directly patching it to the rom or allowing the vba to patch it for you?

Mewtwo of the Darkness March 20th, 2006 4:58 PM

OMG GLITCH IN THIS!

Bug Catcher Sammy sent
out ?!

? ------- L10
Sprite: two Questionmarks
Moves: Tackle
Stats: Dunno but attack rules!

ace675 May 5th, 2006 3:48 PM

so when do you get charmander and the rest

Phinsfan May 5th, 2006 4:23 PM

It would be awesome if you made like missingno as a real pokemon in it or the other glitches, go here and try to draw your own sprite, read up on glitches here, trsrockin.com, now THAT would make this really worth playing!

Acses May 6th, 2006 3:45 AM

YEAH MANNNNNNN
can't wait to play it

Red1530 May 7th, 2006 5:53 PM

I found a glitch. When you talk to the fat man outside of Professor Oak's you start a battle instead of getting a response.

Black Jackal May 8th, 2006 1:49 AM

i realise that this might be somewhat trivial, but i think that you should change your title screen soon, i patched the rom and then thought that IPSwin had stuffed up, because the fire red title screen still came up...

two days later i had this bright idea to try again and see ig he'd just not changed the title screen yet... lol

Red1530 May 8th, 2006 11:16 AM

I think I might of found where to get an overworld sprite of a Pikachu. Just rip the the Pikachu from the daycare center that was in RSE and import it to Fire Red.

Ninja Monkey May 25th, 2006 4:28 PM

This is my first time I've ever posted but I thought I should say something.

This hack is looking very good, and it's the reason I've joined here. Keep up the good work!

Scompi May 25th, 2006 4:51 PM

Great hack! it real cool how you made the beginning look exactly like pokemon yellow.

once again great hack, and good luck!

Yes, Nicely done. Good luck trying to complete it.

Alistair June 3rd, 2006 10:17 AM

Anyway good luck with this hack,it looks awesome ;)

The Hacks Showcase has a revival period of 2 months.
Therefore, this thread is still within the limit.

Alistair June 3rd, 2006 10:29 AM

Whoops. I am still not used to that... *Slaps self*

Red hasn't posted in this thread since February so I question that this hack is still in development.

Heheh. It's been a month since some one posted, eh? I'm back! sorry for the wait.. Now, i'm going to continue this hack. I just have to figure out where I left off, somewhere after pewter city I think...(I think I edited the wild pokemon in the route after pewter city, and all the pokemon battles there had the same pokemon as yellow, basically.) so, it's only up to that route.. I need to edit mt. moon, that's what was next.(Oh I get it! I must have stopped because I didn't know of a way to make the jesse&james battle! uber 2 on 2 battle though)
BTW, I will edit the battle with the fat man in pallet. It seems I somehow caused it to start a wild weedle battle....XD

Gokey Shuckle July 1st, 2006 5:09 PM

It's a very cool Hack. I can't wait to play it!!!

pokemaster707 July 1st, 2006 9:05 PM

when i download your game it doesn't work right

Red July 1st, 2006 10:34 PM

The link might be broken, I'll refix it, Remember, it's just a beta so not much has been edited past the pewter city gym.

Har D Har July 19th, 2006 6:38 PM

I'm a huge fan of this hack! Keep it goin' Red! And, you should put Mew instead of Mewtwo, and Johto after Sevii! That would be SWEET!

ace675 July 19th, 2006 8:19 PM

Great hack man this is one of the best i mean its like a totel redo of pokemon yellow i hope pokemon redos there pokemon yellow like this one :)

Red July 23rd, 2006 4:50 PM

Well, I released a very small update, beta 0.12; the main edit is the title screen and some other stuff that might not be noticable, anyway, the next thing I was going to add was the bulbasaur and then go from there.

adeebsworld July 23rd, 2006 6:27 PM

looks pretty cool but u know the real game isn't gonna come out

Red July 23rd, 2006 10:27 PM

Exactly, I'm making it, because I think there should be a remake of Yellow. Remaking yellow doesn't apply really, so I can make it. Anyway, I'm almost done adding in bulbasaur, the other two will be next, and maybe some gym battle edits, then another beta, then I'll try to make the jesse and james battle.

BuoyselLover July 23rd, 2006 11:15 PM

This looks great! I think you SHOULD use that sprite of Satoshi as the male hero. ^^
I also think it would greatly enhance the title screen if you made it say ThunderYellow Version, and replace those little flames with bolts of lightning. ^^ Great hack, keep it up!
EDIT: Oh, it also plays Charizard's cry on there instead of Pikachu's. Just thought you should know.

alexmad July 24th, 2006 7:56 AM

as for me that parese a triviality pue the mapiados ones are lod same that network fire that becomes to be a little boring

That's not satoshi... that's RED from pokemon red, yellow, blue, gold, silver, and crystal. In crystal i beleive you can fight him on mt silver after you beat the elite four. He has like level 70 somethings, he has a pikachu, charizard, venusaur, blastoise and espeon. This is called pokemon lightning yellow version. I don't know how to change the cry, or the words into lightning yellow. I'll look into it later, and the flames i also don't know how to change, for now gameplay is top priority.

User_Name July 26th, 2006 5:16 PM

I have awsome sprite and artwork of a Yellow, if you wanna use it as the female character. I also PMed you about something.

Oh, it's Red? OK, then. let me rephrase that... Yes, you should use that Red sprite for teh hero :P
I might possibly be able to send you a patch that will change teh title screen a bit (although teh cry-changing is beyond me). Any thoughts on what font I should use for 'LightningYellow'?

Bebetrunks July 31st, 2006 6:51 PM

Looks very good ^^ also i have no idea about hacking but couldnt you maybe rip the sounds from pokemon yellow? Again i have no idea, this is just an idea if its possible. Keep up the good work.

Dillon July 31st, 2006 7:10 PM

i like it! it looks good,cant wait to play!

martijn August 2nd, 2006 10:19 PM

Hi, I really like this hack, it stands out quite a bit from the rest.
I got a few suggestions for you:
- Can you replace the Daycare center below Cerulean City with the one from the Sevii Islands?
- As for being able to obtain the starters troughout the game, great idea! But try to make their base levels raise bepending on the progress you've made through the game. So, if you'd place the obtainable Bulbasaur in Viridian City instead of Pallet, it should be level 10 (like it is now ofcourse). Maybe you can add an section in Viridian Forest where you can obtain a level 15 Charmander, or 5 levels lower, like in the series. And Squirtle in Vermillion on level 15 or 20.
- Wouldn't it be a good idea to enable the National Dex right from the start? There is a thread about it in one of the hacking forums IIRC.
- In the original Yellow there is a Chansey in each Pokemon Center, you could take the Chansey sprite from Fuchsia City and place it alongside Joy.
- As for the Pikachu sprite, I believe there is a Pikachu in the Vermillion Pokemon Fanclub house, so that could be a usable sprite.

Perhaps I'll add more suggestions if I can think off any. Anyway, keep up the good work!

Maybe you can add an section in Viridian Forest where you can obtain a level 15 Charmander, or 5 levels lower, like in the series. And Squirtle in Vermillion on level 15 or 20.
- Wouldn't it be a good idea to enable the National Dex right from the start? There is a thread about it in one of the hacking forums IIRC.
- In the original Yellow there is a Chansey in each Pokemon Center, you could take the Chansey sprite from Fuchsia City and place it alongside Joy.
- As for the Pikachu sprite, I believe there is a Pikachu in the Vermillion Pokemon Fanclub house, so that could be a usable sprite.

Perhaps I'll add more suggestions if I can think off any. Anyway, keep up the good work!

interesting ideas, but if I follow some of them, this hack may become less of a remake and more of it's own individual hack.
The only idea as of yet that could be plausible is the chansey idea, but I'll do that later when I can. I took a break from working on it for a bit, but now, I will get back to work, I'll add the charmander first, and then squirtle, then i'll release a new beta.(as far as I know the thing people seem to like the most is getting all the starters.) Other features that are plausible will be added when they arise.

I understand. Maybe this is more suitable as an idea: instead of the policemen in the game, could you put in a female character instead, like Jenny? Or would it be too much like the anime then?

Good luck with this remake, Red. Waiting here for a new beta with more edited things, because there really weren't many things to notice differences, besides text editing, and the start of the game (however, I think this will happen every time because it happened between the original Red/Blue and the original Yellow also). So, I'll make a suggestion, give the game a few personal touches (like, adding some sidequests or optional battles).

Keep up the good work, and don't worry with that little yellow rat following you, haha!

Maybe, you could put Mew in the Unknown Dungeon instead of Mewtwo like in the Japanese Yellow, and put Mewtwo in the appondoned lab. That would give your game a special touch.

great job
 
I like it alot.Im also looking forward to playing it.An idea I had was why not put all the pokemon in it from bulbasaur-deoxyes.and be able to go to the 8th and 9th islands to get ho-ho,lugia,and deoxyes.and new places for celebi,mew,and the little star dude.And 1 more thing the dogs and birds.Just stuff that would make the game a little cooler.but keep up the great work and have fun.

cant wait till its done
 
hey exellent work i cant wait till it is done. have you found out how to get pikachu to follow you yet?

Supergamecube14 August 9th, 2006 6:50 PM

For the weedle thing at the begining, wouldn't it be possible to just completely swap Pikachu and Weedle in the game (i.e. edit pallets, change cries, change attacks, etc.) Just an Idea, not the best one, but that's all I came up with.

Samson August 9th, 2006 9:11 PM

yah, i'm not so concerned with changing the cry or attacks because the oak (aka the old man sprite) doesn't actually battle it, but i think it's REALLY vital that you change the weedle to a pikachu nevertheless (considering what oak says in the story). speaking of which, why is the oak back sprite the old man? you should try changing that as well.

well, i'll be honest. i have no interest in this hack if it's simply a yellow remake. the only thing that comes to make a difference in the game is you end up getting the three starters and that doesn't interest anyone because the rest of the gameplay will be identical to FR and LG. what i suggest you do is make the game more anime-oriented with events somewhat like the anime. i say this because when yellow was made, it lacked the ability to function under a storlyine quite like the anime, though it was originally the intent. meh, i'll just say it simply: spice it up.

Could you please make the title screen say lightning yellow? Thanks in advance.

SephirothX August 11th, 2006 9:38 PM

This looks kewl. After G/S/C, Yellow was my favorite old game. Although this hack won't be much different from FR/LG, I'm still interested!

MaHe_ August 12th, 2006 3:13 AM

Hi!
I'm watching this forum space closely, though I never post.
This hack looks like my favorite, just behind Moon/Sun.
But I have a request: Keep it the way the original Yellow was made - remake as closely as possible. I don't want to have the starters as wild Pokemon, as they should be rare. There should be only one fo the species obtainable in the game (except if you breed them).

Anyways, keep up the great work!

mecharatchet August 24th, 2006 6:26 AM

oh my god, i wanna play but it doesn't work... it looks awesome but it doesn't work! :(

DarkArcz August 24th, 2006 9:53 AM

I like the idea of a Yellow remake very much, so I'm just gonna make a suggestion : Keep it like a Pokemon Yellow remake .

It's called a REMAKE becuz it takes most(if not all) elements from the original game, so "spicing it up" to make it follow anime events or something would make it less of a Pokemon Yellow remake, and more of a Pokemon anime recreation on a GBA. ADDING aditional touches is OK, but just don't EDIT the main ideas of Pokemon Yellow. You can add a new map or two, but don't modify main Kanto and Pokemon Yellow events, you can just place new stuff on some new island for Sevii Islands or something.
