Platform: Designed for PC​

Hello everyone! I'm leachim_paloyz15 here, and I bring you a hack that I cannot certify whether I'll be able to finish through time..

I've been around here on PC since the ages, I've been busy studying the art of hacking by form of tutorials.. and I must say, at least now I can do something or things in hacking.

I have at least 3 to 4 hacks that have failed to materialize.. That's why this time, before I graduate from college.. I want to at least finish 1 project.


But that's enough about me..


This hack, is mainly about a JROCK group, "SCANDAL." And no, they're not the ones who told me to do this. I don't know, I just came up with this idea to fuse/combine all the things that I like into a one single ultimate game. ^^​


picture.php


17 years after "The Invasion", the Nihon Region is barely standing on its very foundations..
No other nation wants to help it..
Every leader wants to conquer it for his own, primarily due to its rich lands, and its very capable location on the map.

17 years ago, brave warriors from all parts of the Nihon Archipelago joined forces to repel the world out of their lands.. They fought 'til the end, with pride and honor.

But that.. wasn't enough.
Their campaign lead them to their own demise.

You live on the large island of Melmond. A former territory of the Nihon Region, under the name of "Shikoku."

Your father was one of the best Samurai Warriors that ever lived.
But during "The Invasion.." He went missing.. Some say he sacrificed himself for you, and your mother's safety by fighting off an endless horde of invaders, --exactly what a hero would do, while some people say he ran away with his tail between his legs,
--like a coward.

SCANDAL, an all-girl Nihon(*ese?) rock band, was very popular before "The Invasion", and even after the historical event. They will be conducting a so-called "Live Tour" in Melmond, just to ease the tension a bit.

Setting that aside... The world you'll be diving into.. is a battlefield..
"No retries, once you're done, you're done for good."

Your conquest for survival, and freedom awaits..
Go forth! Be a hero, be a coward!
From here on out, you're on your own.​

-New Characters

IN-DEVELOPMENT: - UPDATED!!


Pokemon Invasion (*Possible Prequel || *Possible New Storyline for Live Tour)

After a long period of isolation, the Nihon region was finally revealed to the world by explorers from all lands.

At first these explorers and their people were amazed by the region's greeneries and its rich history.
Eventually, this "amazement" turned into envy, and jealousy leading to the event branded as "The Invasion."

Many leaders have tried to claim the Nihon region for their own, but the people's resistance was unmatchable, and was to be feared.

During "The Invasion", warriors from all of Nihon joined forces to repel the foreigners out of their soil.
Since then they have trained their people ages sixteen and above both the Art of Pokemon Raising, and the Art of War to secure their lands, and preserve their sovereignty.

Tomorrow you will be turning 16, but because of the current state of your region, no grand birthday celebration, nor luxurious presents are to be expected. Instead, you will be heading out to train and from then on, strive to become a hero of your land.


*Note:
Nihon Region - The combined areas of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, etc.

*Possible Features:
- Choose from a variety of clans to join:
Each clan will provide you a different "Pokemon Partner", and "Equipment."
- Battle alongside your pokemon.
- Command Events:
These are events in which you can command or order other in-game characters depending on the situation.

*Setting:
- Futuristic Pokemon World

"-God- (For the knowledge, and for almost everything else)"

Which one?
Anyway sprites need work. And lots of it.

And seriously this section has become so inactive that threads can go weeks with only one post? Wow...

My first time here in like..two weeks? Really though, what gives? Not much enjoyment here I see.

Well, interesting rock band story you have. Sprites feel...lego-ish. Like, bright pastel colors with blocky feel to it. Feels unnatural. Hmm.

Nice storyline... I wish it was a KPOP band though...
The only thing I want to suggest is to remove the fakemon.. but it's okay if you don't want to... I mean you worked hard doing their sprites....

Your idea is unique, but I fear, and I could be wrong in this (and it would be amazing if I was), that it is too focused on one group to make it enjoyable for the majority of people. I've never even heard of Scandal until I saw this, by the way. I really love your dedication, but this hack is too specific on one group to be enjoyable to me (unless everyone here is a Scandal fan, which... I doubt really), but it may become a cult hack, or even spawn a series of hackers doing similar hacks. In saying that though, the only reason to leave is to watch them... The story could be a little improved too, maybe you have something exciting planned (cos if not, I have some generic ideas about fans and groups and saving the day hooray)

Damn.. I forgot that I've set up a thread here in Progressing Hacks.. xD xD

Well here's a sort of update:

Rina's drumset - 100% Done
SHScandalHeavenScandalHack-1.png


Just an afternoon screenshot.
SHScandalHeavenScandalHack3.png


Pokemon Nicknaming has been enabled in the game.
[mod: removed. Censor bypass]

New MenuBox. (Comes with Red, Blue, and Green colors.)
SHScandalHeavenScandalHack1.png


CANTA's moveset has been altered a bit. (THUNDERSHOCK has been replaced with SHADOW BALL.)
Also shows the new BattleBox Menu. (Color: Blue)
SHScandalHeavenScandalHack4.png


That would be all for the update.

Credits to Wesley FG for the tiles (found in his Black&White thread project), and for the resized 64x64 Black&White sprites.

And for all the comments, thanks a lot! I'll change things that are needed to be and retain those that I want. Thanks for all of those who have left a comment or two.

Also, I know that my idea is pretty much lame, but I'm trying to come up with something..

~Leach//.

Drumset looks great!

As to Canta's movepool, you're setting it up to be a very overpowered Pokémon. Shadowball is more the equivilent of thunderbolt or thunder itself, which you wouldn't expect to find until lv.25/35 minimum. Try a Dark move rather than Ghost such as Bite or Thief or something more fitting for a lv. 5 dark monster - even tackle would work!

After reading the 'Story' section I don't really understand where this is going - you get a Pokémon to travel to see a band... but then what? Do you get there and it's finished? What kind of troubles are there a long the way? Is there a scandal surrounding SCANDAL that could be hinted at in the 'story'?

Thank you!

Okay then! I'll fix that one up! ^^

Well, I have something under development.

Also, the screenshots in the main post are outdated.

Once I have a free time, I'll update the main post.

Oh and the worst hacker ever!!
that I know!

WTH?!
Freak title dude!
change it!
Thanks! So, I guess I should stop making this hack right now? Is that what you want to tell me?..
Then, I'll be a good boy, and stop right now just as you want me to.
Again, thanks for your constructive criticism. I was moved by it.

Haha! Thanks for the support! (If you seriously posted that, and if this is not just a dream. xD xD)

Anyway, Graphical Updates(check main post) are all thanks to AlexTheRose.

That would be all.

That titlescreen image is killer, though the alpha channel applied in the text has to go (unless you're willing to reprogram the GBA assembly, which I doubt).

I don't have the graphics skill for alternatively-located images in the TS, so I don't think I'd be suited for inputting it, to be honest.

What Tubby31 said is absolutely true in my opinion: As hopeless as this hack would seem, the goal has to be met regardless. I was asked by you to assist in that, and I've fully decided to be part of the project – It's fun, rather ^^;.

Keep up the good work, chap.

Ciao!

The title screen is already waiting to be inserted. No need to be troubled with that. ^^

Thank you! I appreciate your efforts. ^^

Anyway, I started to make the Battle Sprite(Back) of the Female player..

2nd attempt. (V2)

Yep. So I think I'll go with this one.. Thoughts?

Also, I'll release a "POKEMON SCANDAL -- LIVE TOUR -- Giveaway Patch", I don't know when, but be sure to keep an eye out for that (I'm pretty sure that this will come first before the Official Demo 2. xD xD). It'll be the last patch to include a hassle-free way of of getting ZEKROM & RESHIRAM (or the other way around). The patch will also include all the Black & White starters, and some other rarities.

Sorry, the requirement for a story and screenshots is a constant thing, it's not just to get the thread approved. I'll close this for now, just VM me when you have a story and screenshots to add, I'll reopen this so you can put them back.

EDIT: Thread reopened due to the owner doing those things I mentioned :P

Okay, thanks for that!


Anyway, THREAD UPDATED. (Story + Updated Screenshots posted)

Also, previous screenshot (and update) images have been deleted in photobucket. (I accidentally deleted them.. ><) So I'm very sorry for that.

That would be all for now. ^^

BUMPIN' UP THE THREAD:

Official Website: http://pokemon-livetour.squarespace.com/

Since it's pretty much hard updating all the threads I've set, if you want the latest updates, and downloads go here.
I'll still update all the threads that I've created though, for I shouldn't have created them if I can't.
