Pokémon - A walk in the past

Introduction
Hi guys! :D I decided to make a game on RMXP using the Essentials and I want to create something different. So I decided to make a game in the medieval era. Before I started to write this, I googled for some games and I only found Conquest. So I think I'm probably the first to do it (or probably not XD).

Storyline
Centuries ago, friendship between man weren't like nowadays. There were no trainers. There were no gym leaders. There were no pokéballs. Warriors grew pokémon to protect the kingdom. In order to get tougher, they used to challenge the 8 fortresses and each fortress was leadered by a strong noble. The goal was to become the king's champion, the supreme trainer after beating the 4 Silver Knights. However, there was a group of evil people who wanted to control the kingdom. They were known as the Order of Darkness. Did they reach their final target? Only playing to know the truth of Pokémon World's Past.

First Town


To Do List:

• Trainer Sprites
• Overworlds
• Tilesets (Almost done)
• Item icons
• Maps
• Scripts (Someone wanna help plz? :( )

Uhmm I hope you're not planning on making the game play similar to that of conquest, you're in for a rough time if you do.

Anyway about the pokeball issue, didn't they use apricorns in that time? As well as berries for healing?

I do believe in Pokémon Conquest (i never played it, I could be wrong), I believe people actually befriended pokemon to travel with, rather than capturing them.

I won't do like in Conquest. I want to make a normal RPG.
Apricorn Ball were used in the past on the movie Pokémon 4ever but I think they still have some sort of electrical circuits and they can't be thrown. But scrolls can be thrown XD

Storyline added to the main post

The gameplay would be like Tara's Adventure then? Throwing beef jerky to monsters during battle, after beating them, there will be a chance that the defeated monster will join you? :P

Hmm.. About the fortresses thingamabob, it's very similar how the Pokemon gyms functions isn't?
Why not,

As for "medieval period" try googling Lucario.

I believe the apricorn nalls have been around before therw was any electricity. I don't see how one wouldn't be throwable whereas a scroll is... anyway, it's just a detail, but imo an apricorn qould make more sense.

Spoiler:

a different plot? scrap the battling 8 cities, 4 kings/elite knights. An adventure different from the pokemon's.. Defeating a Dragonite and saving *Princess Peach* on a tower perhaps?

The gameplay will be like every other. I only use scrolls instead of balls...
Sorry but i want to keep the tradition of pokémon :) I could try to do something different like that but it wouldn't be so Pokémon... (Poor Dragonite... always being the bad one :( )

Try to see the Celebi The Voice of the Forest movie to see what i mean about throwable. Scrolls are like throwing f.e. a toilet roll... ;)

imo, scrolls are too naruto-ish..

I think you should make it enchanted bottles that send the pokemon into another plane, but depending on their power and stuff they could potentially break the spell; also I suggest replacing the PC with a bag of holding

Well I came up with that idea from naruto :cheeky: I just can't remember another way to catch pokemon :(

I will think about it ;) I really forgot about the PC :O

Well, just replace the PC with an NPC or psychic Pokemon or something. Just add a little back story like:

This Pokemon is able to change the Pokemon being summoned through the scroll (Move Pokemon) . It can put contracts on hold as well as canceling them (Deposit & Release). When you have less than six active contracts, as well as Pokemon with their contracts on hold, this Pokemon will be able to make their contracts active again (withdraw).

Hope this helps out a little.

Thanks! That will help a lot! :D i will replace it with a NPC. I think it's better ;)

Sorry to be inactive on forums but i didn't have time to stop here :)

I'm working on the visual part of the game (sprites and tilesets) and i want to show the king's battle sprite :D

Here it is (half-scratched):


I'm looking for castle and wall tiles. If somebody knows where to find, please let me know :)

A Pokemon game set in medieval times?

Let me at it, sounds like a great idea.

If you ever do make it let me know, it would be a cool game.

This seems like it would be really fun! :cer_nod:
Can you tell me if (and when) you will make thanks.
But you should do like a side plot thing because it would be fun to slay a dragonight and save a princess

I really appreciate that you both liked! ^_^ I decided to do it and I'm working on the visual part which is the most important and difficult part. Probably the story won't b like the others. And I won't let anyone slay any pokémon! even Dragonite (one of my favorite pokémons :P )!

Final Region Map:

I'm working on the tilesets. On the end of the week I will publish screenshots :)

Hi! long time without being around here :)

For those who think I stopped the project, that's a lie...

I've been doing the legendary trio for my game. They represent the Japanese gods Amaterasu (Sun), Tsukyomi (Moon) and Susanoo (Ocean).
