Forgot to mention that thanks haha :P (BTW hi I am omastars)

But why is the player travelling the Region?
Is there something (s)he hopes to achieve?

What's wrong with just leaving on an adventure with no particular goal?

Looking pretty good so far. The tiles you changed look nice.

What would you do?
Over time just wandering around with no goal, will be boring, and pointless.

Well it says think of the story as the official games, so there's that. :/
I do agree that over time it will be boring, do you have a specific evil team plan or maybe at least some sort of goal other than winning badges?
The screenshots look good for the most part, the mapping is a bit empty and plain though, for example, the Team Rocket (?) event screens...its just the floor, that's it, add more stuff to make it less empty perhaps?
I'm digging the compositions though, they sound especially good, and I always like when people compose music and then add it to their hacks (one of the main reasons I love Dark Violet so much, but this isn't Dark Violet's thread xD).
Good luck on this project of yours though! I'll be looking forward to download and play this hack.

[FrozenInfernoZX]

I see that you used the overdriven/distortion guitar in your trainer battle music!
Those are my favorite Fire Red instruments! It sounds so epiccccc!

evil team

AN evil team would be some form of story.
Good jub.

*UPDATE*

I have extended the number of Pokémon, so would you guys want me to add Fakemon or Gen IV+ Pokémon?

 

[Pokémon Trainer 188]

This is shaping up to look like a really nice hack, I think you should add some Gen IV Pokemon for sure

And what about unova/kalos Pokémon? What do you guys think? By far I have added the 3 Gen IV starters and their evolutions :)

 

[Mochorro]

Well, if would be good if you added the evos of some older gens Pokémon. I would also like to see Pancham and Pangoro in the game, haha, but that's just perssonal preference. Cryogonal would also be cool!

Thanks for sharing, it looks like an OK adventure!

 

[AstralComet]

Hummm... First of all, the mapping is boring. For example, the city looks empty and the grass in the route looks badly placed. And the cave is far too empty... I like the tiles, but in my opinion you should change their color to a more ''pokemon-ish'' style. About the Evil Team, Team Electric is a bad name. I guess their goal will be something about electric energy so how about calling them Team Volt? However, I really love your compositions and the other features of your hack. Keep working on this!

Update:

R/S/E Graphics!

By far, the R/S/E tilesets and the textboxes are ready.

Credit to reshilegend for porting the tilesets for me (I have done the textboxes).

 

[AstralComet]

I prefered the older tiles, but if you want to keep them in RSE-style you should update the screenshots.

The tiles are not fully completed. I will update the screenshots as soon the tiles will be ready :).

Nice looking ROM! I prefer R/S/E tiles because they seem the nicest to me.
