for the player sprites could i give you diamond playe sprites remade into gba size because they look quite good or heartgold sprites remade for gba?
UPDATE:
The 4th City, Iceland City.
Random battle near Iceland City.
LoL This is just something random. ZORUA can learn Transform in this game and I thought it would be a funny idea to at least try it...But I'll get KO'd before I get the chance.
The map for the 4th city is done. All that's left is the events and I will move on to the titlescreen. However, I'm having some issues with it. If anyone can direct me to a really good tutorial on here or a video tutorial on how to insert titlescreens and edit the introduction sprites(You know, when Prof.Oak talks at the beginning.) I'd like to learn from them. Or if anyone would like to assist me personally with inserting them, I would love that. PM me...
I don't really understand what you've got here....
I don't really understand what you've got here.
It looks like you've just crammed as much in a possible, and it's played havoc with your story, from what I can see from the screens/what you've posted. The 'story' section of your thread itself is incredibly bland and tells me nothing.
Working my way down your first post we get to a big issue - the characters. Mario? Luigi? Yugi? ... Quagmire? Why even. If you're trying to make your own game, which from the looks of it you are, don't go making it some kind of comic relief cross over. They add nothing to the hack other than a 'wth is he doing here?' reaction.
Next: New moves. U-Turn? As far as I know nobody has put U-Turn into a 3rd Gen hack, because the mechanics of the move are pretty hard to replicate I imagine! If you can't promise features like these, don't put them in your first post.
On to the screenshots. For the most part, your mapping is bad. It's horrible square, empty and boring. Two houses, a layer of trees (which can be walked through) and a square pond? The palette in the Pokémon centre is totally mucked up, which I assume you did by accident because it looks terrible. The hero sprites look flat, all the custom sprites just look terrible I'm afraid - 'V' is the only one who is in the correct style and goes well.
The pokémon sprites you have put in, for the most part, are good quality. Which is good. However you might want to rethink what pokémon you are inserting. For instance, you have far too many legendaries. If they aren't obtainable it's going to be even more tiring. Only include the legendaries that are part of the story, and then 1-3 bonus ones (kind of like a legendary trio, at most). I also noticed Karrablast is included - Karrablast has a unique evolution path, so wouldn't it be better not to include it?
Also the tiles you are using are well inserted, but it looks like you need more snow tiles considering how bare the snow maps are.
----
Anyway, to sum up this mammoth post, it would be a good idea to finalise your story and pick what NEEDS to be included, and what you are throwing in just for the sake of it (IE Cameos outside of PKMN). Maybe have a look at some mapping tutorials, or post some maps in the map rating thread for feedback.
Okay, now firstly..
To be honest the region name (This might just be me) but Core?
It needs to sound more exotic and real, I think I'm just being to picky on that one lol..
I like that your adding new music, its a good feature, but i think u should stick to just using Pokemon music, not Zelda.
I agree with what alot of other people have said about using Mario, Luigi, so on..
They don't belong in Pokemon games, If I wanted to see Mario I would play Super Mario Bro's lol.
I'll be intrested to see how you insert those new moves and how they turn out ;)
Your maps...
I don't need to say a thing as Swiftsign has beat me to it.
Maybe use the D/P garchomp back sprite, as the mouth does look funny and its made like that coz B/W has different frames.
I like that you gave Vulpix/Poliwag there DW abilities, nice idea.
I think the Rivals dragons should be caught, but maybe near the end of the game.
In the screen with speech, it should be like this..
*DR GIRL: I wonder what I'll do today...
(Next Line)That dream last night
The best friend rival looks bad, you choose some messed up colours..
Purple and Yellow, yuk..
Also maybe make a whole new person instead of just editing emeralds sprites?
Sorry, I could keep going but I have to leave lol..
*ON another note, I will make a few maps for you if you would like maybe only one or two, but they will be very good quality? I'm extremely busy with my hack otherwise I would help you more, I think people need to take it easy as I know how hard we all can take criticism sometimes. Pm me and let me know :) if not then good luck!
