    Hello everybody, I'm Alfio and I'm new in the forum and in this whole editing roms thing. I came up with the idea of doing my hack based on Ash's journey in the region of Hoenn. Here a some pics of what I've done so far:
    Spoiler:


    And here's the problem: I had started my project with the grass tileset of Pokemon Essentials, and then I found some that I liked more than those, so I replaced them and started all over again. The thing is that when my character is walking through the grass, wild pokemon do not appear(I've already established which ones and in what level and that), and I don't know what to do for making this happen. I hope you can give me a hand with this. Thank you all! Sorry for my english.
     
    What do you mean they're not showing up? Could you give a bit more detail?
     
    Did you assign the terrain tags?
     
    I hadn't assinged the terrain tags, thank you buddies! But now I have found another problem, when my character is walking through some tiles it looks like this:

    And in some other as in this road, it looks like this:

    How do I fix it? I'm sure it's something easy to make, but I have started with this just yesterday, I hope I don't bother you with all this newbie questions
     
    Check your priorities of tiles. I wanted that to happen with the tiles in my game for buildings only, because I'm using BW Style Characters in an HGSS style Map.

    Thank you so much! Now I can proceed doing the rest of the map!
     
    You really should learn how to use RPG Maker XP first, before trying to make a Pokémon game. Essentials adds on to the skills required to use RMXP, so if you don't know the basics, you're going to have a harder time. I'm sure you want instant results, but it's very much worth investing time in learning everything first.
     
    Thanks Maruno, I've taken your advice and leanrt some more basic stuff. I have advanced a little in my story, but now I came up with another doubt: I don't know what should I do to make that my Pikachu appear out of his pokeball, like in this case:

    And then, when that event finish, I want he come back. Could anyone explain me how to do this? Thanks

    You'll have to set up the animation for it. I don't think there is a default one. So you'll have to make it.
     
    Use switches and event conditions. If a switch is on, the event will display a graphic (Pikachu). If it is off, it is invisible.
     
    Nevermind, I solved it by myself.Thanks

    You should leave questions there instead of removing them, and add the solution in an edit. That way, if someone else has the same problem and can't solve it they might find your post and be able to.
