Pokemon: Shadow of the Wastes

[Kaylee Krysteenah Fynch]

One of the best? o^-^o I don't know about that...

Anyway, I don't mind putting in people as trainers... because that saves me the problem of having to figure out who my trainers are. It's especially nice when they can accept being a more-or-less normal trainer, so thanks. Although you forgot to mention if you were a Cooltrainer, or a Pokemaniac, or etc.

dude, i think this ones too developed to be in the scrapbox, its too amazing!! Im gonna try beta the day its out!

 

[Iluminknight]

Ok, thanks. I'll get straight to work as soon as you give me a list of sort of songs you want. Something like this:
1.Something Heroic
2.Jungle Music
3.Battle Music
etc....

So let me know what kind of music you want. I'll check back here in a day or two.

PS: I write my music in midis with Anvil Studios.

[luker05]

i gotta feeling this hack shall be a success lol

 

[Kaylee Krysteenah Fynch]

Okay... will trainer submissions PLEASE put down what TYPE of trainer it is? Cooltrainer, beauty, bug catcher... whatever, but I can't tell just from the name! ^^" I don't have a problem putting in people's trainers (it fits in with my hack very nicely, in fact) but I need to know what kind of trainer you are!

Yes, that means you too, WillBill. >,<
Although I'm surprised at the name; the trainer is a girl?

Okay, Illuminknight, could you try something that will have the feel of a fairly quiet, but hardworking forest city/town? It's for the very first town, which is in the first post, in case the map will help you get the feel of the town. It should be a quiet piece, but happy and a little adventuresome. When you've got it, then I'll need to listen to it, and we'll go from there. Thanks.

Hello agian! I bet your making some good progress on your hack hu? I noticed that a lot of people are wanting to be trainers but they must not be describing themselves well. I am still a trainer that can be part of a plot right? Its a cool thing you finally have someone to make music for you on the game. I wanna listen to the first tunes before they are on the game. Maybe you can make mp3s or something. You don't have to though...anyways, Kaylee keep this thing up! :D

I am now ACTUALLY writing a subplot; yay me! It involves people being captured by Miraous (which are going to be in the game whether you can actually battle them or not). Sure, I've been working on the idea anyway, but now I'm actually writing it.

It's not going to be accessible until you're heading for the League, so don't expect to actually SEE it too soon.

Anyways, that said, I'd like to ask people to refrain from asking for plot positions. If you give me a good subplot idea or plot twist, then if I use it I'll certainly acknowledge you, and probably include you in it (if it fits). But, if you do that, remember that I reserve the right to change your idea to fit the vision I have for my game.

Also remember that I have 17-18 Gym Leaders, which means 9-10 extra sprites if the Mini-Gym leaders don't have their own sprites. Add my sprite, and two others for people who are close to me in non-electronic life, and... well, I'm kind of short on free sprites.

(I was just looking at sprites - and there seem to be quite a few "extras" from rse I could write over. But I still want to be careful with sprites until I know how much extra I have, especially since I have to make sure of how many OWs I have available. Besides, although most of Team Adauchi will probably have the same sprite {they're all cloaked and hooded in loose black} I do have to sprite them too, and... well, stuff.)

Just to make all this clear. I'll probably need to re-work my first post, and add a section about trainer submission and plot ideas, but until then - there's this. >.<

 

[Johto Legend 17]

You said that i was part of the plot in a way. You said I would be some guy trying to fight off the darkness but was a little bit misguided and I said ok with that. I'm just reminding you of that.

 

[olidude]

I would like to join as an OW Spriter i will send you a proof of work :D

 

[Kaylee Krysteenah Fynch]

Wow, everybody look, it's a CONTEST!!!

Yes, I wouldn't forget that, Legend... that post wasn't because of you...

Anyways, I am quite happy to announce my very first contest!

Rules:

It's a guessing game. :P
Anyone who does NOT already have a part in the storyline of my game can compete!
The answer I'm looking for is the answer I'm looking for. ;)

Here's the contest:

I was doing some sprites for the game just recently, of some people who get into a lot of trouble! I did NOT make them up; they're very well known.

If you're the first person who can guess who they are, you can feature in an event with them!

EDIT: We now have a winner, heatman2477, who correctly guessed Team Rocket!

 

[PokemonLeagueChamp]

As far as trainers go, I'll be a cooltrainer.

It's good to see that there will be some storyline to this. It is good to not be led around the game, but sometimes that leads to the confusion of the player.

 

[Kaylee Krysteenah Fynch]

Of course there's a story! You just find it by accident.

Don't worry, though, when it's actually finished I plan on putting out a walkthrough in case people get stuck trying to find one or another of the events.

 

[Iluminknight]

Ok, I'll get right on it. I'm not sure exactly what you think will fit the town best, so I'll write a few sort of foresty themed tunes. Hope you like em.

So how do you want me to share them with you? By email or? I already have 2 ambient sort of songs done.

Note: I'm going to be on vacation from April 11-15, so you probably won't hear from me till I get back. I should however, have a few quick tunes for you before that. If you have any other sort of songs you want, please tell me what kind of thing you want. I think I excel sort of at ambient themes, and calm music, but I've done a few marches with a faster tempo.

related to the contest

im gonna take a shot at this even though i am probably wrong. the only well known trouble makers i can think of are jessie and james of team rocket. its probably to obvious to be them but i might as well guess them first.

(i'm pretty sure you haven't mentioned them so this is my first guess)

 

[Kaylee Krysteenah Fynch]

^^ Actually, Heatman, you're right!
Since you guessed it, you get to have a character involved in an event with them.
I don't know if you'll get your own sprite since I'm being careful with sprites right now, so for now I'll ask for a name, trainer type, and roster (just in case the player battles you).

Illuminknight - hmm... PM'd. Thanks.

Yeah, he was lucky. Anyways @ Illuminknight- I NEED TO HEAR IT!!!!

 

[heatman2477]

sweet i didn't think i was right. i didnt think it was going to be jessie and james. anyways

Name: Rocket Grunt Dave
Trainer Type: Rocket Grunt Male
Lineup: Houndoom- Abilty:Flash Fire/Flamethrower, Crunch, Facade, Overheat
Breloom- Ability: Effect Spore/Mind Reader, Dynamic Punch, Spore, Giga Drain
Haunter- Ability: Levitate/ Hypnosis, Shadow Ball, Dream Eater, Nightmare
Slowking- Ability: Own Tempo/ Psychic, Surf, Ice Punch, Yawn
Forretress- Ability: Sturdy/ Explosion, Counter, Substitute, Earthquake
Donphan- Ability: Sturdy/ Defense Curl, Rollout, Earthquake, Ancient Power

I'm not really concerned about a custom sprite and if you want the lineup to be more Team Rocket grunt style i can easily change it. also i won't give levels, i'll leave that up to you based on how far in the game the event occurs so it matches the story. You could also just pm me or something and give me an idea on what your kinda looking for in terms of a trainer. i don't wanna make an uber team that wouldn't fit. i'm just looking forward to playing the game when it comes out and the bonus of battling my rocket grunt self.
