FireRed hack: Pokemon Electro Ball

[FAARSAL]

Guys! This is FAARSAL. I'm here with my very first hack.
I have tried to make it the best I could. It is suppposed to be hack different from the traditional ones( Collect badges & won League etc..) Hope you're gonna like it.

You are a boy of 12 years & it's not your birthday(It's a usual day ofcourse :) )
A new Pokemon professor has moved your town from Kanto Region( Yeah, it's OAK) but he has
brought some problems with him. Since his arrival, a Legendery Pokemon from Unova Region
has started to appear in the region. One day he calls you and ask you to bring some special information
from his friend in other town. From this time you keep bumping into Gary Oak, Ash Ketchum &
some other anime stars to fullfill the task Oak assinged you.

*New Region
*New Graphics
*New Tiles
*New Pokemon ( From All Gen 1-6)
*New Story
*Physical/Special/Status Split
*New Moves
*New Overworlds
*Choose from Four Starters(All from Sinnoh)
*Updated Pokemon Sprites
*Travel with Ash & Brock
*Pokemon League Tournament (Like Anime because Elite Four are quiet bad)
*New Characters & Rivals
*Decaptilization( The Rom won't SHOUT on you :) )

Pokemon Electro Ball Alpha 1

Hi,

Have you considered joining a development team at all? Some people are better with some aspects of hacking than others, and if you work well in a group environment it may make for a more fruitful ROM hack overall.

Anyway, I would suggest looking at other hacks, and their storylines/mapping and possibly playing the hacks as well. Your mapping is overly simplistic and the backported 3D sprites aren't inserted very cleanly, and the maps themselves have way too much negative space (try and rethink the structure of the towns). If I were you I'd not focus much at all on tiles until your other skill areas shape up a bit. Also, your story isn't all too bad, however still I'd recommend removing some of the marysue-ish aspects of it and adding in a little spontaneous creativity (the anime crossover is a bit... out of place? idk).

I hope my comments helped in making your hack. Good luck

Nooooooo!!
My hack's region name is Sky!!

 

[Jukai]

Nooooooo!!

To be honest, I wouldn't consider Sky a good name for a region. Region names are usually a bit more creative. But I'm not really in any position to judge. :P

Back on topic, Screens look nice. You made good use of Sinnoh's tiles. You could work with the Male Player's OW a bit.

Scratch that, It's actually pretty good. I think the hair's just a bit dark for dithering.

 

[anonyboy]

Well good work mate!!! Your DPPt Trees and tiles fit with the HGSS style buildings!!!
it gives a very diversed aroma

I have made many new maps for the game but you are only seeing the screen shots of very first town. I have made it simple for a reason you know. and if you don't then you will know very soon

Judging from the maps you have presented later ones don't seem likely to be all that different... you can prove me wrong though.

It's my own style. But yes I will consider to make them better. Improvement is always needed even if you make the best you have.........

No offense, but your style is... lacking. I hope it gets better, though.

 

[f!ame]

The tiles look well combined, but con the screens I see very poor mappings. Style looks like Pokemon Platinum Red and Blue...
Anyway, sprites are pretty well and I think you can improve this, and show us more things. Go on!

 

[looneyman1]

My only concern is scripting, make sure everything's spelled correctly. Other than that I am pretty eager to see how this goes.

 

[Spherical Ice]

I'm curious about the title of this hack: is the move Electro Ball buffed or something? It just seems like a relatively random move to name the hack after, even if Pikachu is of significance, because there's the sig move in Volt Tackle and the sig item in Light Ball that would both hold more relevance. Is there a meaning I'm missing?

Nice Questions. Electro ball is involved in the task that is given to the hero by Prof.OAK..... Story is well written but sorry I have not explained it in the thread..:P

 

[Sceptile90]

Well, this looks promising. I think I'll look out for this.

Nooooooo!!
My hack's region name is Sky!!

...Are you serious? Now, I'm probably not good at recognizing if names are good, but come on! Sky is a terrible region name! I'm sorry, but it kind of had to be said.

 

[Nex]

DUDe ask me before taking the tileset of fr nds style out ans modyfing it
Proof: the fences,the recolored grass,the rocks,the pallet town houses with the same errors

 

[Spherical Ice]

From what I can tell Nex's claims seem to be legitimate, FAARSAL, so I'm going to have to ask you to remove the offending tiles from your hack and reupload screenshots with tiles that you do in fact have permission to use. If you can't do that for whatever reason I'll just have to close this thread, unless you can prove they aren't stolen.

Well, If you want to remove the thread you can, but in my defense I have got these tiles from devinart. from alucas account which were public. And I have myself made a bit of them. Yes most of them are not mine but I was going to put a credit list after the release

 

[Astraea]

Well looking at screenshots, the hack looks fun and promising, good luck in making it.

 

[FAARSAL]
