Listen, the majority of us have been playing pokemon for over ten years. We all have a good handle on the gameplay and if you are interested in the game enough to venture into the fanhacking community odds are you call yourself a master at the game. So i speak on behalf of the creators and the intelligent members of the pokemon community when i say. Who honestly cares if they up the levels of pokemon a bit. On paper pokemon is one of the easiest games ever. Worst case scenario you don't plow though the game and are required to spend time leveling up. Pokemon as a series is so easy we've invented Nuzlocke runs, Monotype runs, Solo runs, No item runs etc. Giving us english speakers more of a challenge is welcomed in fact. And last but not least, it's not your game, nothing is owed to you and they're making this game for their own satisfaction not for anyone's approval. If the difficulty is too much, don't play, they're not going to lose sleep over it.
I await the English version of the hack, like i did with B&W I've been saving myself for the English release. Not everyday we get a 100% completed hack, I'm proud of you guys for your work on it and your contribution in the pokemon world. Go light platinum!
Nice. Another person rooting for the editor's changes!
how? i though that him and ash493 were just in charge of translations?? and when's it gonna be ready btw im anxiouss:(
Nope, I'm in charge of the whole hack, considering that my current position is the co-creator/editor of this hack.
Also, don't listen to Xtreme. I'm making this hack easier, because Wesley overlevelled the Zheri league and he also overlevelled Wesley's PKMN.
You do realize SP is making the hack harder?
Nope, it's going to be easier.
I want to play this hack the way Wes has it, and it being tranlasated in english. I don't want to play the way you want to change it. That is what the true fans of this game should want.
Though SP you should be thankful I'm asking, and not doing the changes behind your back in the future when you actually release this.
Oh, but you can't. I'm the one who is in charge of this hack, now, and there's nothing you can do about it. Not even the mods can bother with it, because Wesley has given permission to me. I even have proof. Would you like to see it?
Thankful? No, thank you, I'm not going to thank you.
other than infinite rare candy and max stats cheats how in the world is Wesley expecting us to beat the game when the world championship is like lvl 70-100 pokemon?? :/
For Ash, I'm going to reduce his PKMN's levels. They're not going to be Lv. 100. Just something lower.
I vouch to let SP do what he wants. He(and Ash)'s the one doing the translations and stuff not you guys. As far as making the hack harder. Seems more fun to me. Every single ROM hack I've played never even seemed difficult. Heck, Normal HG/SS is harder than 90% of the hacks I've played.
Cool! I'm glad that some people root for me for the changes!
Root for the editor, people!
Well there's one BIG difference. Your Japanese part of name is something you could have as an surname but having name consisted of two first names does NOT sound cool ;)
As far as I'm concerned, all of the Japanese names of the people in the PKMN series are all surnames. (For example, Hikari [Dawn in English] is a surname) C'mon, Ash, I used to live in Japan, and I know Japanese surnames more than you do. So, there is no problem with that.

Sadly, I'm only going to take one name. (The one in bold)
You should redo the other names. As I've said, they need to be both custom and share relationships with their Gym type.
