    Hello,
    I'm Wiro. I've been on and off into rom hacking for about 4 years now, but never done a bigger project. Most of the time the hacks have failed due to my lack of knowledge (and maybe interest in learning enough) in scripting. I am studying to become an graphical artist and designer, and that is also my strongest part on this field (i.e. mapping and spriting).

    Here I present the idea of a new pokemon game that you can be part of. I don't know what the name should be, but something similar to the original games.

    Some kind of storyline and features:

    [Player] is a new student at the pokemon academy in the region [name]. As a part of the exam the player has to explore the region accompanied with a pokemon. Part of the game will also be at the academy in form of quizzes and stuff. There will be more HMs and they will have a bigger role outside of battle, for example rock smash will be used for mining in some caves (mines). The basic town structure will also be different and varying between towns/cities; gym, pokemon center, drugstore (potion, antidote, protein etc.), hunter/military shop (pokeballs, TMs),

    Another possible idea that I'm not sure about yet is that there would be a war between two countries (the ordinary and another region) and instead of team rocket it would be spies etc. of the other country's army.

    "Hello and welcome to the world of POKÉMON! I am PROFESSOR [name of a tree that hasn't yet been used] and I'll be your instructor this semester! This world is inhabited by creatures called POKÉMON! For some people, POKÉMON are pets. Others use them for fights. As for myself...I studied the physics of POKÉMON MOVES for my Ph.D, but most of my time goes to teaching at the academy." -the "professor" of the game

    So what I need is a good team consisting of some decent scripters and one or two mapper to help me out.
    Please send a free form application as a reply or fill out the template form below
    Code:
    Name: (username/nickname)
    Role: (scripter, mapper...)
    Experience: (years?)
    Proof of work: (optional, some previous work that you like to showcase to ensure that you're trustworthy)
    Contact info: (preferably msn or skype)
    Availability: (how much time per week are you willing to dedicate to this project)
    There is no actual requirements for the work, other than basic (or a bit better) know-how on the applied field.

    Team currently
    Wiro - Art Director, Story and Project leader
    Pikakitten - Global
    Hacks0rus - Scripter/Mapper
    Kobus Netten - Story/Ideas

    And as you can see much is still open and undecided for example with the names so all kind of suggestions are welcome.

    (Thread will be updated with graphics asap)

    Hello there Mr. Wiro.
    I've been around this forum for close(ish) to a year now, and enjoy helping out others in the forum (usually in script help thread).

    Role: Scripting (although I can do a bit of mapping)
    Experience: close to a year
    Proof of work: I can PM you a copy of a ROM i'm hacking right now
    Contact info: Skype: richard.lindsay50 email: [email protected]
    Availability: Plenty of time available per week (usually can do at least 1-2hrs per weekday and lots more on weekends)

    All right guys you're in. Awesome. I'll add both of you so we can see how we are gonna do this.

    And to anyone else, you can still apply, even with just a small role or limited time.

    Excellent, great to be aboard :)

    Pikakitten, I recommend you get skype so we all have the same form of communication, and skypes relatively useful in that respect.

    I pm'ed him a link to a .ips patch I made, so its all good.

    Before we start work we need to think of the surrounding idea, story etc, then we can get to work making the maps.
    We'll have to discuss our story ideas, make something concrete to build upon first though.

    Sorry guys i've been away a bit, hope you're still in though. Exams finishing this weeks so we can begin big time!
    If we could have a group chat on skype so we could decide what we begin with and I have a few ideas that I still need to show.
    ~Wiro

    edit: hacks0rus I never figured out what rom that ips was based on :SS
