    I used to hang out here a lot, and I thought I would give it one more chance. Mainly since I suddenly have plenty of spare time. And what better way to spend it than hack?

    Pokemon Tungsten

    Hack of: Fire Red.

    Game Development: Not started. (need team first)

    Pokémon Tungsten Plot

    Storyline:
    You arrive in your new home in Sino Island from Stone Island, a vast metropolis-island north of Sino Island. In Sino Island, you dream of becoming a Pokémon Trainer, and it turns out you can as you are over the age of 13. You visit Professor Aran to get your first Pokémon, but this is a hard choice, as there are nine to choose from (the Kanto, Johto and Hoenn starters). Once you have made your choice, an ill-mannered boy comes barging into the lab, demanding a starter Pokémon as well. Professor Aran calmly tells him that he would have to ask the next day, but the boy is not patient. He charges at the table where the Pokémon are kept and snatches one. Professor Aran and his aides try to stop this boy, but he is too fast. Professor Aran was hoping to keep that Pokémon for someone else, and it was a rare Pokémon, too. He employs you to get that boy and his starter Pokémon.

    So you spend the game chasing your new rival, but you also discover that there are eight gyms scattered across Sino Island, and you decide to challenge them all and get to the Pokémon League. After beating the eight gyms and the Elite Four, you find that the Champion is your rival. You make a promise with him that if he wins, you will leave, but if you win, you get his Pokémon. When you win, you take his Pokémon, but the boy swears that he will get revenge. You take this Pokémon back to Professor Aran and he thanks you for it, and he gives you a Master Ball as a gift.

    When you discover that there are eight more gyms to battle, you don't hesitate and immediately rush toward Mt. Victory Island. There are new Pokémon there, and tougher Gym Leaders. When you beat them all, you find out that something momentous has occurred at a place called Mt.Victory, and you go to explore it. Fighting the powerful Pokémon that reside within Mt. Victory, you finally see what happened. You see your rival in tattered clothes and he is hell-bent on revenge. You have one final showdown and after you beat him, he sees no reason for life. He runs away and you never see him again.

    Features:
    - You will find all 386 Pokémon in the game, but the first 251 will appear on Sino Island, while the rest will appear on Mt. Victory Island.
    - Side-quests will be revealed, as you discover more and more caves. These side-quests will obviously lead you to Legendary Pokémon.
    - The fact that there are nine starter Pokémon instead of three makes the game all the more exciting.
    - To accommodate the nine starter Pokémon, you will begin with a national dex instead of the standard Kanto Dex.
    - An advanced form of the Trainer Tower, in which you not only battle other Trainers, you also get experience points out of those battles and money.

    Obviously, I cannot make this idea a reality unless I have willing team members to help me. I will be a mapper, but I need scripters, spriters, other mappers and music mixers to help me with the game. Thanks to anyone that is willing to help. A more detailed version of this plot will be given to anyone that wants to help me in this game. Obviously, this is just a draft, and the story line is more detailed than this, but more details will be revealed when the game's development begins.
     
    The idea for this hack is okay. The storyline is really the original Nintendo storyline all over again. You get a pokémon and take the gym challenge while battling your rival along the way.

    You need to work on the name.

    What's wrong with Tungstan? It seems like a pretty original name. It's an element on the periodic table. Follows the silver/gold name line almost.

    And you shouldn't really rely on a team to do hacking for you. The lead on a hack should really know how to do basic mapping and scripting at least. A spriter and maybe an advanced scripter is all you really need.
     
    I think the idea is pretty good. Also I think what sasquatch said is right, you should gather a team, but at the same time you should be able to do at least a little of everything in case something happens. But anyways good luck.
     
    I have started gathering a team, and I know how to do some basic scripting, but as for spriting, title-screen editing and music, I need help.
     
    Ok that sounds good. From the looks of your features you don't need much spriting unless their recolors/reposes. Music is optional but I guess you want it and Title Screens aren't too difficult if you follow a tutorial.
