[Released] Pokémon Fates

[Nyo0]

Introduction​

Welcome to Pokémon Fates, a fangame made using Pokémon Essentials for RPG Maker XP.
This is a non-profit fan-made game and all copyright belongs to Nintendo.​

Story​

Spoiler:

You're a kid who goes to a training camp to learn all about Pokémon and Pokémon fights. All of the sudden you get a phone call from the rather forgetful Prof. Fich: You should deliver a strange packet to his friend, Prof. Trib.
It's a long and burdensome journey, but you still make it there. While you're there, you "decide" to sneak into the headquarters of a new and powerful organization, who conquered the region Nyoma by storm. The name of the organization is called... "Team Pocket".
Soon you're facing the cryptic leader, Athenus, who instead of punishing you for sneaking in, invites you to visit Mt. Cyan with him. And before you know it, you're in front of Arceus, the god of Pokémon, who offers you to...

Choose your own fate!​

Fate 1: Become the champion of Nyoma: As straightforward as it gets. Try to beat all the challenging eight gym leaders and the champion.
Following solely this fate will skip almost all of the story.

Fate 2: Follow Team Pocket: Find out what this organization is up to and uncover the plans of Athenus!
In a future version of the game, you even get the chance to join Team Pocket!

Fate 3: Start a new life: Completly ignore what's happening in Fate 1 and 2 and become the mayor of Crossania Town, a bankrupt town! Build up the town again and let it get visited by a lot of tourists!
Meet Jonny and Sarah there, the only residents of this town. They will have so many nice things to say and to do with you! :)

Each fate will grant you with their own visions, which help you to find out what you have to do next!
!Important to know! You don't have to be bound to one fate. Do whatever you want! Just know that you will only get the visions from the fate you have chosen.

Features​

Spoiler:

Applies to version 0.3:

• Almost every major event is skippable and can be done whenever in the game! (This will have some consequences, though...)

• 8-12 hours of playtime (depending on how much you do in the game)
• Three Gyms
• Following Pokémon
• Speed Up Button (Press the "Alt" Key)
• Various side quests

You can expect more features which can be seen in the screenshots!

I went to sleep on the bed until morning in the Mayor's house in Crossania Town and now whenever I enter the outside of town everything is pitch black. I thought it was just frozen at first, but I was still able to maneuver around the town.

Huh, that's strange.
Would you mind sending me your savefile, so I can find out what's causing that?
Or could you alternatively tell me what you did the day before (and which day it was), so I can try replicating the bug?

By the way, thanks for playing the game! :)

I can't figure out how to post my save file since for some reason the attachments won't let me upload .rxdata files, so right now I'll just have to recount what I did. Yesterday the only I chose the "start a new life" option when prompted with the choices, when I got to the crossroads on Route 6 I went up first and all I did up there was help the bug catcher before I went back down to where the vision directed. Once I was in the town I went to the café and chose to be the mayor. After the guided tour I went in the house to check it out and when I was downstairs I accessed the object that allows you to decorate, but after looking at that I backed out of it. After that I went upstairs and clicked on the bed and when I was given the choices of when I would like to wake up I think I either misclicked or tried to back out, but I selected the "until morning" option. After that I went outside the town was just pitch black. Since I was able to move I tried to fly first, but it said I wasn't able to do that there so I was able to get back to the transfer house where I was able to see again. I flew back to the other towns and I was to see there so it only seems to be that town only. I also didn't try to enter any of the other buildings there so I don't know if any of the other buildings there have the same thing happening.

Alright, I fixed it. The problem was that you backed out of the choice when you'd like to sleep and I forgot to disallow that. This only happens when you try to sleep for the first time in your bed.
There's an easy fix for this bug, though. Just sleep in your bed again and the town should be back to normal. (It will be Tuesday then.)

is this game gonna have mega?

I definitely add Mega Evolution to the game. It'll be there in the next version.

is this game gonna have ability capsules to sell?

I haven't even considered putting ability capsules in the game, but they are a great idea! I also plan to add this in the next version.

[Nyo0]

Version 0.3.1 is out! It fixes various bugs and I added some shortcuts to Mt. Nyan! (see changelog)
I recommend upgrading your game!

Everytime I go past the event when you give Mr Trib the mysterious box my game crashes

Which event do you exactly mean? I tried replicating the crash, but I didn't get one. Could you also provide me with a screenshot of the crash?
Or you could just send me the savefile (per mail), I'll look into that then.

Hey Nyo0! I've been really enjoying the game so far, the only true issue I'm running into here is that when I try to go battle the hiker on Route 2 the game crashes! This is what it looks like:

I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Thanks for reporting the bug, I fixed it, it was a stupid spelling error...
Just redownload version 0.3.1 again and you should be able to fight against this hiker again without any crashes.
