    [PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Planet - Free To Play Pokemon MMO

    What is Pokemon Planet?

    Pokemon Planet is a free Pokemon MMO where you can battle, trade, and progress through the storyline alongside your friends and other players. The only region that is currently available is Kanto, filled with the same trainers/npcs/quests. Gameplay is similar to Fire Red/Leaf Green.

    I started working on Pokemon Planet early last year, but ended up busy working on other things. About half a year ago I rewrote the entire game and have been working on it since.

    Pokemon Planet is currently in closed beta. A few of my friends are helping me test it for bugs and balance issues. Please don't ask if you can be a part of the closed beta, just wait! :)

    EDIT: Open beta has launched, you can register an account at https://pokemon-planet.com


    What is Pokemon Planet being developed with?

    Flash Actionscript 2.0 with Smartfoxserver Pro. Everything has been completely written from scratch by myself.

    Completed Features:
    • Fully working Pokemon system (up to Gen 4) with proper stat calculations, including IVs, EVs, random encounters, catching, storage system, etc
    • Fully working battle system (minus a few moves that need to be touched up), battle NPC trainers or real players
    • Fully working inventory/trade system, buy items from NPCs or trade with other players
    • Fully working multiplayer system, watch other players move and talk in real time
    • Progress through each city earning gym badges and eventually take on the Elite 4
    • All of Kanto Added
    • Most of Johto Added
    • Credit Shop with some cool items (credit shop items are tradeable and most also found in-game)
    • All TMs/HMs working
    • Fishing for Pokemon
    • Highscores
    • Starter Pokemon are not tradable, and will have to be found in special locations
    • Clan System
    • Drop system (Pokemon drop TMs, evolutional stones, and different things depending on their type and rarity)
    • Gamble at the casino and exchange tokens for prizes
    • Held item system
    • Friends/Ignore/Online list
    • Kanto + Johto Safari Zones
    • Decorative Items
    • Global Auction/Marketplace System

    Planned Features:

    • Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and entire custom regions (Johto is already in progress)
    • Party system - group battles with and against your friends
    • Dungeons/party-only maps - difficult areas meant to be faced in parties, teamwork will be needed
    • Dynamic lighting system to make for a realistic atmosphere
    • Spectate battles
    • Weekly competitions with unique rewards
    • Tournaments/Group Tournaments with prize pools and random prize generation
    • Wager battles - battle your friends and bet items and Pokemon
    • Tonnes of quests and custom areas
    • Graphics overhaul
    • Weather system
    • Day/night system
    • Crafting system
    • Lots of other stuff, I need suggestions!
    • Clan wars

    well as i have played a few mmos for pokemon already id suggest "customized" ui (more user control on where everything is and where you want it to be
    then customizable controls (with hot keys so you can repel with a button)
    work on getting "better" graphics like using the ones from black and white..
    also the faster you get a new region out the better as the main mmo i have played "promised" a new region a long time ago yet still lack making one.

    there are alot more stuff like getting mods to patrol the "fairness" of the game so no macros to get a shiny
    and ect
    also get a currency something for pokemon/items/hms/berrys and ect so there isnt a in game item worth for trades (unless super rare)

    I've actually entirely redone the GUI, it should look and feel much better now. I'll post pictures in a few days. There will be hotkeys, too.

    Hoenn will be added shortly after open beta, as soon as I get all the stability issues/bugs fixed etc.

    There will be mods and anti-bot measures as well :)
     
    Loving this already. Been looking for a new one since PokeMMO went crappy.Also will there be an EV stat box to see how many EVs that you trained on the pokemon. And may i suggest and an IV calculator for this MMO as well to make it easier for players to have tournment pokemon and non tournment pokemon. Also before PokeMMO started having trainers battle you like in the device games it you were able to skip the ones you didnt want to which was good since i always started with a different pokemon each time instead of the following 3 starters that kanto had. Another idea will be for a unstuck command for players if they get stuck some where in the game so they wont complain that they're stuck and wanting to quit.

    Also if you need some extra help just mapping hoenn or any other regions you plan on doing you message me if you like. Best of luck for this game :D
     
    New images:
    Spoiler:


    - new art implemented
    - gui systems redone
    - 4 chat channels added
    - more music added
    - escape ropes and repels added
    - bikes added
    - game dimensions enlarged
    - added Bill at Cinnabar Island
    - Sevii Islands and Deep Viridian Forest maps added
    - can only trade/battle with people on the same map as you
    - your Pokemon will follow you
    - you can now only trade up to your highest leveled Pokemon you've ever owned (to prevent trading high level Pokemon to new players allowing them to quickly progress through the game)
    - lots of bug fixed and tweaks

    Open beta is approaching :)

    Yep, there will be a interface where you can view information about your Pokemon, including IVs/EVs. People shouldn't ever get 'stuck', the sync is very good :)

    I can not wait to play this!

    I'd also like to test it out before Open Beta, if you'd let me of course.

    Thanks! It won't be long until open beta.

    looking really nice :)

    I suggest implementing Physical/Special Split, even though this was not in Gen 3, it was added in Gen 4 and it has been vital ever since. I just think having this early on and everyone accepting it will make the PvP and PvE much better.
     
    you should fix this when people sign-up and then try to log-in
    "Your account is still awaiting admin approval." because this makes me want to quit...
    and not try it out

    Sorry about that, there was a little bug with the admin approval and I had to do it manually for a bit. I've fixed this and you won't need to wait for me to approve accounts anymore.
     
    Nice, I look forward to playing it!

    Notes: I just played it.


    looks very nice. If you want some help to fix typos, or to translate to Portuguese, I'm here.

    This sounds great! So it seems that it is like PokeMMO to the next level with more region? So are you going to redo the level curve or are we going to do an Ash, restarting with new teams?
     
    What could be done is this. you could have a massive story chain going through the whole game across all regions, A few years ago team rocket released a virus that affected pokemon in different regions differently, due to this no pokemon from another region is allowed to enter the new region. Upon entering that region you must obtain a new starter, and the only way for you to beat the virus is to defeat the corrupt elite 4 in each region and gain the cure for that region allowing you access to all your pokemon in that region.
