QUEST FOR POWER'S STORY:

Spoiler:

you wake up one morning and go downstairs, then your mom gives you a letter. it tells you to get a pokemon from the proffesor, and take a gym challenge, while looking for a team of thieves called TEAM NIHT SHADE (NS), and it is from Looker, your dad (yes, the Looker from Pokemon platinum). You then go to the proffesor, get a pokemon, and head for the nearest gym. and in the cave on route 2 you find TEAM NS, and overhear them talking about finding Celebi. you then chase them out of the cave and get to the city with the first gym. after defeating the gym leader a cop comes and gives you a phone so you can keep in touch with the police. later on your way to the 3rd gym you spot a fake gym, and check it out, and fing out that TEAM NS are using shadow pokemon. after you defeat him he drops his shadow Dragtini and runs. then in the next city you go to the International police station where you dad works, and tell them what you know so far.
rest hidden do to spoilers.

I need an advance scripter in order to finish the first beta.

well, to anyone who might care, should Beta 1 go to the 1st or 3rd gym?
(reason the jump is huge is because most maps are done.)

Position: Beta Tester

Help with other projects: Well, none as of yet, but as soon as Nikolai Fox is ready, I am beta testing his hack, "Pokemon: Ultimate Quest". And anyways, everyones got to start off somewhere. =]

Other Comments: Your story seems really interesting. I like the idea of shadow pokemon. It really incorporates a difference from the original pokemon, keeping your hack interesting, but still keeps that good feel of using the originals pokemon.

well since i'm also beta testing Pokemon: Ultimate Quest, your in.

also, how long should the first beta be? 1st or 3rd gym?

 

[tjwilliams24]

Alright, thank you for letting me test! I have a feeling this trilogy is going to be really good. Good luck with it =]

 

[siper x]

well... i now have 2 polls going on.

1st: Should the beta be to the FIRST or THIRD gym.

2nd: Should i ad a couple fakemon or not (i'm not including the ones i will have which are prehistoric, but in the present)

 

[tjwilliams24]

Well, since your only 10-20% for three gyms, I say you release Beta 1 with one gym. I think people should get a feel for your work, and then once they play it, they'll keep watching your hack.

About fakemon, it depends how well they are done. I like fakemon, depending on how much effort was put into the making. I suggest you put in less then 15 fakemon, so they don't overtake the originals.

i was thinking 5-10 prihistoric, and 5-10 present time fakemon.

 

[tjwilliams24]

Well, that's a good amount. Are you thinking of more prehistoric then current fakemon(or vice versa)?

 

[siper x]

Well, that's a good amount. Are you thinking of more prehistoric then current fakemon(or vice versa)?

more prehistoric, because there will be an event were you go back in time, when pokemon like Kabuto and others were still alive.

Alos, is a minigame arcade a good or bad idea (the farther you are in game, the more minigames you can play!)

 

[tjwilliams24]

Going back in time would be a great idea! And mini-games, I like them, and they could be a good idea depending on what your planning to do in the event.

 

[siper x]

well, i'm having all the minigames in fire red, and some others like a maze and other fun games.

 

[tjwilliams24]

Then yeah, I think mini-games will be a very good idea. Also, you should put in some, if not many, side-quests. I say this because it will make the player more involved with the game and make it overall more enjoyable

 

[siper x]

can you give some ideas? also, i'm about to pm you something secret about the game. don't tell anyone. and yes, this is also to ad suspence to those who don't know.

 

[tjwilliams24]

The hack is looking great. To anyone seeing this thread, your going to love the hack. Anyways, do you think you could post some of your concepts for the fakemon? It doesn't even have to be a picture, just what they are/look like.

 

[siper x]

well, untill my scanner gets back, i can't be a spriter, even though i still suck at spriting, but here are some ideas of what they look like.
1st dinosaur style (look at the actual dino, to get an idea)
1. a raptor
2. a terrodactol (however you spell it)
3. prehistoric alligahtor
4. a mammoth

that's it for my current ideas, but ROYAL has let me use 2 sprites.

 

[tjwilliams24]

Sounds good. How about a Prehistoric Shark(per say, the Megaladon - 80 foot long shark ancestor. Could be psuedo-legendary)
Prehistoric Snake(don't remember the name, but it was twice the size of an anaconda, which grows from 20-35 feet.)

 

[siper x]

intresting, i'll ad those, and i have an idea for a minigame.
POKER! for example Blackjack/21.

 

[tjwilliams24]

That'd be good! Maybe you could bet Pokemon. And better pokemon is like betting more money. So like betting 50$ would be like betting a rattata while betting 500$ would be like betting a charizard.

 

[siper x]

so, also add wifi, so then it can be universal?

also, i thought of being able to trade the coins in for money as well (slot machines), so then people try to win more, but you don't get quite the same as money for coins.

 

[tjwilliams24]

Yeah, that would be a cool mini game. But, personally, I think you should make one Casino in the major city that's completely different from the FireRed's. Like a casino as in Gambling and Hotel. And instead of just slot's, poker tables, and instead of sports betting, pokemon battle betting
