.:Pokemon Luscious Ruby:.

THE INTRODUCTION

Hey everyone! So after seeing all of the hacks on PC, I've decided to try out my luck with a hack of my own! :nervous:

Let me start off by saying this will be a remake of Ruby. Why? Well because I thought the Ruby storyline was pretty interesting, BUT did not like the graphics, so I've decided to remake it with new and better graphics along with a few twists. Meaning, I will try to add some aspects from the anime into the hack itself. Of course adding everything from the anime will be difficult and impossible, I will only add the ones that I think will make the hack better as well as adding some of my own ideas.

This hack will mainly serve as something for my to work on during those boring moments in life. Meaning, I will work on it during holidays or anytime I'm feeling bored from school and Uni life, so I hope you will understand and not pressure me with "When will there be a release?" or "Any updates??!!" Of course, aside from this, the hack will also serve as a game in which players can find interesting events from the anime that they've expected to be put in the game while they play, rather than the boring straight linear story plot that's common in all pokemon games.

STORYLINE

After competing in the Johto Pokemon League, you've decided to go back home and visit your family in Hoenn. During your home visit, you find out that the Pokemon League in the Hoenn Region has officially started. So you decided to participate in this League as well. Throughout your journey, you will meet up with rival pokemon trainers, some old and some new. Of course, not all is well and peaceful in Hoenn, for Team Magma is conspiring to awaken the ancient pokemon called Groudon in order to further their evil plans. In order to stop them, you will need to team up with your rivals before it is to late...

And that is Luscious Ruby!

This is Great.

This is great, you have a solid storyline; Features, and screenshots. I will be keeping my eye on this. Good Job, Bao.

It's cool,but the sceenies are simple.But i quess you're in the start,that's why.Good luck.

The only thing i would criticise (sorry) is that the first town still looks a little like the same as the start village in fire red >_<
Other than that it's actually looking great i can't wait for how this hack will turn out. ;) Good luck

Hmm, are there any spriters willing to help me out? It'll mostly be for trainer sprites of the rivals..

yeah i know, but if you take a look at littleroot town in Ruby, there is only 2 houses and the lab, also since this is a remake, i didn't want to change it too much and have it not look like littleroot town..

hmm this'll be fun, i like the idea about multiple rivals

So I was thinking of making Tyson from the show as one of the rivals alongside Ash, along with Morrison (maybe)..what do you guys think??

Cool so far,you know how to use CSS?This will make your thread very attractive,color the letters etc.
Who knows?Maybe you're the second Zel.

Yes, but for now I like to keep it simple and clean.

Btw, I did some changes to LITTLEROOT TOWN, so check the first post for the new map, and altered the storyline a bit.

Not bad I guess I can do a little spriting,whats needed to sprite?

Well since Tyson is going to be one of the rivals, possibly a battle sprite for him and OWs

I've started scripting LITTLEROOT TOWN and almost done, just need to finish up some of the newer scripts.

Here's some screenshots if you guys are interested

Um..... why does it say hue on the end? Is hue a word?

Yes hue is a word. It mainly refers to the different shades of color...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hue

I could change it to color, but in the original R/S it said hue.. So what you guys think, should I change it or keep the original description?

Keep it the same,
I've never noticed it before lol

Sure thing but I dont get it who is Tyson, the rival and I would need to know what the rivals sprite look like if you want me to do that,and it will take a WHILE for me to do the ow and sprite maybe a week because I have to do a little on my hack as well:)

This is Tyson:

He's the one with the Meowth from the Hoenn League.

Hmm, I've been thinking. Would it really be a remake if I change too much? Like the Elite Four, should I really replace them with the rivals or leave them be??

Hey, this seems pretty interesting, and im gettin pretty good at pokemon spriting!
I'd be glad to help, just send me a PM
