The idea is very original, if you manage to develop this properly, it will be a very entertaining game, good luck!

So, as for Pokémon that could be here. Porygon looks like a perfect choice for a starter, some other technological Pokémon come to my mind like Klink or Beldum, maybe they can appear soon, or have technological events. It would be cool seeing them. Also, there is the legendary Genesect, and of course Mewtwo, but the first one is pure technology.

As for fat, apart from Munchlax, Lickitung, maybe to have more Pokémon, I thought of Pokémon that have the ability Gluttony. I don't know if said ability can be implemented or not because it is a GenIV ability, but Pokémon like Gulpin/Swalot, and the 3 monkeys (Panpour, Pansage, Pansear) come to mind.

Keep it up!
Pokémon Trial Black will be coming soon! Explore Unova again in a challenging adventure with multitude of changes!

Hacks I support (I support most of them these are my favourite ones or ones I've put a lot of time on!):

Pokémon Victory Fire, Pokémon Snakewood, Pokémon Dark Energy, Pokémon Adventure: Red Story, Pokémon XG, Pokémon Gaia, and Pokémon Resolute Version.

I like your input and I think an event with genesect and/or mewtwo would be great. As for gluttony, yes we can implement newer moves and we will also. So you will be able to see gluttony in the game :]

I will be personally overseeing everything and making sure nothing too silly gets into the hack. It will be hilarious yet literate and "professionally" done. We have a team of very capable hackers working on multiple projects such as Discovery, Fluorite, Twisted Mind, and so on. Combined with the creativeness of everyone and anyone who wants to get involved, this hack will be very entertaining.
Again the hack is for the community to contribute whatever they wanna input from tiles to sprites to features to just event input like Mochorro just did.

Thanks for giving input and continue to help growing Fat Kid into something amazing!

This... could have been really cool... if not for all the fat shaming

Honestly this started out with a interesting idea, but as stands at the moment it's problematic as hell.

It doesn't matter if you didn't intend to hurt anyone with these discriminatory ideas, they're still discriminatory, hurtful and unnecessary.

And if you're about to try and tell me that it's meant to be a joke, that literally counts for nothing and the more you try and wriggle out of this in that direction, or any direction for that matter, the worse you're going to sound.

Sure, it's funny to you. It always is to the oppressor.

This is gross, there's nothing more to it than that, and I'm sad to see that you're tacking it on to what would have been a solid hack on it's own.

Please reconsider what you're doing here, and that's all I've got left to say. Like, you can guess again if you expect me to reply to anyone trying to defend this.
persistence is more interesting to me than knowledge

I don’t really know how to do anything, but I can make it happen eventually

Here's an idea: then don't play it.

This isn't Pokemon: Slave Plantation like you're trying to make it out to be. Weight is an optional characteristic to a person's body. There is no need to explain it to you. We aren't aiming this at anyone but showing the unfortunate events of a Pokemon NPC. He's fat because he likes to eat and this is because in our hack, he's our character. So you can't really stick up for a character that doesn't care that he's fat lol. There isn't any "fat bashing" just because he's fat kid. So if a hack is about Tall Kid I'm sure you'd come up with something about how giants have a shorter lifespan yatta yatta yatta. You should become a little more open-minded.
Again if you have a problem, keep it to yourself or PM one of the creators. Otherwise things like this are going to go unnoticed. It's simple and like I've said before: If you don't like the idea, then don't play it. Go back to Dark Rising 2 and be on your merry way.

It's not the fact that I would have played it otherwise that's upsetting me, It's that you're spreading bigotry.

And I don't know what Dark Rising 2 is, but you trying to pin what type of game I'm into and passing this one off as something that's just not for me is completely beside the point. But then, everything else you just said is missing the mark by a mile too.

Anyway, this really is the last you're going to get out of me on this. see ya

Bigotry!? Are you serious?

I'm sorry, but this hack doesn't define the kid as being fat and JUST fat. He is defined by his love for technology, Nintendo made this character originally fat and not only in one game. So blame Nintendo if you find this as bigotry for some reason.



Anyways, Meowth, you did an amazing spriting job for him! Can't wait to see the backsprites.

I can easily take some time to make some team Hippy OWs if anyone would want to!

I actually see nothing offensive in this, if anything it's the opposite of offensive.

You're giving the NPC who was deemed to fat to do anything, the chance to have an adventure of a life time. ~

Such saints you are!
This.

Hell, I made the trainer sprite for this hack and I'm fat. Quit 'yer bellyachin ;D

I laughed out loud just reading to the starting thread, the idea looks amazing!
Physical/Special split will be key for Porygon (In my opinion) and i'm also wondering if gyms are key to the game.
Would be nice to see something else that fits the theme replaces gyms, I have no idea what though since i'm not that creative. :P
Hope to see some progress update's soon!
Looking for good and creative rom hacks!
(Msg me if you'd have some suggestions!)

So, uh, I made a little rock smash script for fun. Obviously fat kid isn't in your party, and of course it's gonna ask if you want to use it, and of course it's gonna check if you have a flag.

I can't help but feel a piece of technology would be more applicable for HM use - especially in this case. It's been stated before that technology is the focus, so avoiding the ~fat joke~ here and giving him something to reflect his personality might work better.

I really like your inclusion of previous incarnations of this character in your prologue - at first I was confused if they were screenshots or not, which I think is proof that you've done well! XD Your tileset also looks pretty nice, although the mountain-to-water tiles shown in the gif look like they might need editing? They look a bit muddy at the bottom. Idk.

That script was just made in a test rom, and yeah, for most HMs there is gonna be technology. For Rock smash, fat kid will jump on the rock, perhaps cause a mini earthquake, then the scream :)

Well for Cut, we were gonna give him garden shears. For Flash, a lantern. For rock smash he'll use his strength in weight and just belly flop on it (he's both fat and in love with technology so we are pulling from both), surf he's gonna float and swim everywhere (fat people naturally float easier) and we'll probably get rid of dive and waterfall. also for surf he'll temporarily be able to use a boat

I love your logic, but I think that dive would be scuba gear, or a submarine.

yeah i guess scuba gear wouldnt be bad or too hard to do.. the submarine i dont see as an option. the OW would be too big for it.
