    Islands of Sonata
    [PokeCommunity.com] Pokémon Islands of Sonata


    Created with: RGSS / RMXP

    This is not a hack!
    Plot/Story:

    Myths:

    This is but a legend which has been past down for many millenium.
    Over thousands of years ago, there was a great war between the Land of Sinnoh and the Land of Hoenn.
    The war between Humans and Pokémon. The war lasted for sixty long endless years...
    On the day of wars end, a Pokémon deep beneth the ocean. Came up to the surface and sang a song which sent peace over the lands.
    Two Pokémon, Groudon and Kyogre, created land for humans of the two lands to live on.
    This land became known as Sonata after the lovely song sang by the Siren of the Sea.

    Storyline:

    You are a Sixteen year old Boy/Girl who lives on the Island of Encore. On Encore Island you live with your Uncle, his name is Prof. Rhythm. He wants you to research the Sonata Islands and the mysteries of it's past. You are given your Starter Pokémon. Before you leave, your Uncle is kidnapped by the Evil Team known as Team Requiem. Team Requiem, want to use your Uncle to help them catch the Legendary Pokémon hidden somewhere under Sonata. As you travel to the docks to the north of Encore Island, you meet a boy name Waltz. He challanges you to a battle.

    Waltz tells you about a Pokémon which he saw swimming in the seas and about the song it was singing. Waltz gives you some gear called the AquaGear this gear allows you to swim across the oceans. When you reach Minuet Town, you find out the boat has already left for Nocturne Valley. You go to the Pokémon Centre and you speak to the Nurse, Joy.
    She tells you about the gear you have and what it can do. From here on out, you must Travel across the massive Oceans of Sonata to discover the mysteries hidden their.

    So far there's really nothing to comment on. The swimming idea seems unique, but the plot for this game seems incredibly weak - I find it strange to see FinalEclipse "loves" the story, when its really non-existent.

    I'm not saying that you can't have a good story with the standard evil team/legendary Pokémon theme, but you really have nothing interesting to show here. Why is your uncle kidnapped? What's the significance of this legendary Pokémon Waltz tells you about?

    You also really need to show some screenshots, or at least some form of progress.

    Yeah, I noticed that the storyline was a little... confusing. I came up with quite a few Ideas which I am going to add to the main post. Also, I have sorted out some of the game so screen shots will be coming as soon as I can upload them.
     
    Interesting concept. It reminds me of a game called Eternal Sonata, where just about everything was musically named. I don't know how well your game will "mesh" so to speak, but with some work you probably could pull it off. Just be sure to have some screens up. :P

    Good luck!
     
    Pics or it didn't happen. No, seriously, you should probably get those screenshots up as soon as possible.

    But as Java's Missingno. already said, this sounds a bit like Eternal Sonata, with everything being musically named. This is, actually, kind of leaving me to have high expectations of you. The storyline you have so far is workable, but it needs a little more flesh, if you know what I mean. What is the driving point? In addition, I would also write up the mythos of the islands before you actually get started on the storyline, since it seems it will be essential in the plot.

    I never thought about making the myths of the islands... Thanks for that Alistair. Screenshots will be uploaded by about 18:00 GMT. Also, I was listening to Leap of Precipice (And I am now) which is the regular battle theme from Eternal Sonata so I decided to make the region music based. Like Kanto was Colour Based, Johto I believe was Tree Based, Hoenn I think was also tree based. Sinnoh was Town Based. (I think that is right, correct me if i'm wrong.)

    Screenies!
