Any romhack made by Drayano, Blaze Black & Volt White being the most popular.
Michael Sanders
If you seriously have to ask us OP, then I doubt you will EVER "get into" the fan game scene. Part of getting into the fan games is being into the community itself
Jonathan Barnes
I've started making a game, it will involve a "Press Turn" system similiar to the MegaTen series (landing super effective hits makes your monster move up in the turn order, while landing a resisted or ineffective hit mext the enemy's turn come sooner) on a grid battle field, like the Mystery Dungeon games but in three dimensions (for flying an swimming monsters)
My ideas for starters (which i wanted all to be invertebrates) is so far: Grass: A grass/fairy moss animal controlling a large hornwort (a kind of moss). As it evolves, the animal splits, becoming a colony on the maturing plant Fire: A polychaete lindworm that starts as a pure fire type, but becomes fire/dragon at the last stage. The second or third stage might be called "Hearthwyrm" (earthworms are annelids like the polychaetes). The first stages is a trochophora larva. The line will also naturally learn a few posion moves Water: A water/bug water skorpion, which is an aquatic true bug. A possible name (maybe for the initial stage) is "Buguatic".
Jeremiah Smith
Has there ever been a fangame with custom pokemon that don't look like complete ass?
Gabriel Peterson
hopefully mine will be, but my artstyle will emphasize realism/naturlism, so it might qualify
Camden Hall
That's very subjective, what you think looks awful is purely speculative opinion at best and has no objectivity. Stylistically Pokemon Uranium doesn't look bad.
Joshua White
I looked over the list, and it does look bad.
Grayson Carter
yeah it's called sage
Nicholas Hernandez
forgot to link the sprites page, the sprites have a much more consistent style.
I want to obtain a Gnuru and spread the might of open source software as a pokemon trainer.
James Brooks
these look great, especially if you compare them to that trainwreck of edginess fangame with "nuclear" monsters and shit
Jonathan Diaz
would you consider sacrificing pokemon to improve another one as a game mechanic to be edgy?
Connor Brooks
Uranium has a lot of good stage 1/2 Pokes, from what I heard they only had one spriter for the end half of development so the sprite quality suffered and a lot of stage 2s and 3s where rushed.
Jack Wood
What fucking deadline?
Matthew Hughes
is this a rethoric question?
Sebastian Martin
nine years
Austin Reed
HEH
Dominic Rogers
no, itll be a mechanic in my fan game
Benjamin Gonzalez
Your grass type's final evolution doesn't sound very huggable. Rule #1 of starter Pokemon is that all their forms must be huggable.
Guess I'm checking out Sage today
The deadline of "I want to fucking get on with my life already" most likely
Dominic Morgan
if you can hug a bigass hedgehog, you can hug a colony of bryozoans
Samuel King
Pokemon Altair and Sirius didn't get that memo.
David Sanchez
You can hug all those starters user.
Cooper Clark
sage was started on the old 4ch /vp/ board which is the pokemon board not porn.
Matthew Evans
Is the production of this game dead? It seems like they haven't made progress since the 4chan purge of 2013.
Jose Anderson
Why doesn't the Pokemon Company just buy these designs, take four extra to think of their own, better designs, and generally call it a day after Sun/Moon.
I mean, look at this shit, the new designs are so simple and streamlined, it's disgusting.
Mason Hughes
**four extra years
Brody Mitchell
I know it's not a JoJo reference, I just wanted to post Josuke
Austin Roberts
some of them are really fucking stupid but for the most part it's better than the shit pokemon comes up with these days
Liam Green
The Thoraxe one is kind of weird considering there aren't any axes in pokemon.
Asher Jenkins
I know where this is leading to, let's jump to the point.
Ok so when I was younger I actually used to live in a farm with my family, we owned some animals but my favorite was the chicken. It was just beautiful, a really nice hen, I took care of it most of the time and even named it and shit. So you see, one interesting thing about hen is that they actually lay eggs without a rooster, although this is interesting it actually made me very sad because I always wanted some chick, I asked my dad for a rooster but he said "no, we have enough animals", so I began playing with the eggs secretly. I'd give a personality to each, and break and eat the ones that misbeheaved, I didn't have many toys so it worked just right, you imagine how I felt when I saw pokemon though, it all began when there was just some random episode on tv and there was an Exeggcute on it. So I began laying my eggs just like Exeggcute, and also drawing the faces on them, I prayed that there'd more pokemon episodes with him every time I watched tv, even broke the one on the back, honestly I knew shit about pokemonat the time, but I knew it was a game so I begged for ~6 months for it, along with a gameboy, I was actually doing pretty well at school at the time(besides p.e.) so I actually got one, I searched far and wide for an Exeggcute, and when I finally got him I dumped my whole team and started grinding him for a possible evolution, god how much I wanted him to evolute, I was thinking "I wonder if it's more eggs?" and I thought of all the delightful new ways I'd be able to roleplay with my eggs if I had both Exeggcute and his evo. Anyways it took me until he was level 70 to finally realize that he needed a leaf stone, but fuck when I finally did… I mean, Exeggutor was no longer just eggs, it was an egg monster now, god it was so awesome to me, fuck I was so happy back then. I kept playing with eggs and I had at least ~6 exeggcutes in real life up until my dad found out(I was about 14-15), and he made me stop, shortly after our hen died, I cried for weeks. So eventually I become 18 ok and dad sends me off to live alone and go to college, and it finally gives me the freedom to play with eggs again, I get mine from a nearby farm, fresh. Yeah it's a bit more expensive, but it's worth it. Fuck, I love eggs
Jason Gutierrez
Damn, there are some really good ones in there. A shame that it's all wasted on a RPG Maker game.
Jayden Williams
Because all of them either break design rules (certain typing combinations ie: water/fire) in place, overlap excessively with existing pokemon (wispern is litwick) or are legitimately just bad. Stuff like Forthorn clashes horribly with the base aesthetic, other stuff like Kairoglyph just looks bad.
You, and a good number of others, are making a fundamental mistake: novelty is not quality. Pokemon may be on a moderate downward trend but that doesn't make these fan pokemon any better.
Kevin Edwards
user…
Jordan Russell
You know what I really hate?
How literally everything tends to have a Normal subtype for no reason. It's fucking NORMAL. A Dragon shouldn't have that. Pyroar shouldn't have it. Heliolisk shouldn't have that.
Oliver Roberts
I had an idea for designing pokes for the mainline series once. My starters started out pure so players can get used to the type match-ups. Then the starters became dual-types at stage 1. The starters were a clover sylph that evolves into Grass/Fairy with the hidden ability Magic Guard, a wolverine that evolves into Fire/Steel with the hidden ability Regenetator, and a turtle pirate that uses his shell like a raft that evolved into Water/Fighting with the hidden ability Shell Armor.
As for games. I wanted a Pokémon strategy RPG but Pokémon Conquest delivered. I wouldn't mind a proper real-time Pokémon action/RPG that isn't Rumble. Fuck that game after the first one.
Kevin Roberts
Did they ever even release those pieces of fucking shit or give anybody access to the power plant in X/Y?
Fucking GameFreak.
Carter Robinson
thats not a rule, how do you even come to that conclusion? were you triggered when gliscor had flying/ground? thats been a thing since gen3 thats your opinion, being more than a ball with eyes doesnt make bad design, none of these are more complex than existing monsters
im probably just falling for bait
Yes, with the movie It does suck that youre just handed them now and dont get to fight/catch them.
Isaiah Ramirez
Axew line?
Ayden Johnson
There are no axes in pokemon.
Aiden Johnson
Blazeblack/voltwhite, it's been mentioned but I'll elaborate on why I like it a bit more.
Do NOT try to nuzlocke it. They turn things up on you.
Also it does at core what I always want out of a pokemon game that they never ever fucking do. Which is to make all the pokemon available from the get go rather than locking off the majority to post game bullshittery.
The first bushes of the game contain all the national rats, birds, and bugs from all the games and so on and so forth so there is some actual method to it rather than say, a randomizer which might lead you to running into a fucking mewtwo in the first grass tile.
Biggest downside to it is that almost all the gym leaders are fucking double/triple battles and I hate that shit.
Adam Lewis
Normally partial to grass starters but that one is pretty lame.
Digging that fire starter though.
Luke Powell
I have been watching a guy do nuzlocke Drayano hacks and other "hard mode" hacks for a while now, he just started doing volt white recently. He doesn't even overlevel or anything either, his team is almost always a couple levels under the gym's, sometimes on par. He still fucks up all the time because he likes to fast forward during battles, killing his own mons because he wasnt paying enough attention.
It was pretty funny when he had to give up a encounter because it was a wild Axew with dragon rage so if he didnt run it would 1 or 2 hit kill every member on his team.
Juan Hernandez
Hijole, que bien, cabron.
Adam Carter
there is a reason pokemon made a ton of weird fucked up pokemon, its to break up the monotony of nothing but 4 legged cat pokemon and birds, which these people didn't seem to gt
These are mostly pretty good designs by themselves, but put together it looks like a sea of the same, my vision starts to blur. If I look at a list of official pokemon my eyes are attracted to the uniqueness of each
Noah Reed
...
Nathaniel Bailey
How is Ludicolo mexican? Also, there are other Pokemons that resemble mexicans?
Anthony Harris
what is your opinion of letting pokemon have access for all their level up moves (that they have reached the level for) at all times plus four taught moves?
Lincoln Carter
You serious, hombre?
Jacob Hernandez
Would be tedious to navigate through the moves, but it would good for more variety in battle.
Oh, bueno.
William Moore
That's too much, six moves would be fine.
Noah Taylor
a lot of these are pretty good, seem to be a lot of 2 stagers, which might be better, I don't know. The only one that looks like blatant furry OC is the cubzero line.
Hunter Garcia
Cubzero is the standard generation dog, like Zigzagoon, poochyena, etc.
Jaxson Peterson
Battles work perfectly for 4 moves. Add more and you'd have Pokemon that can do fucking anything, or have absurdly great coverage. Not to mention make picking teammates less of a thing.
I think what user was saying was having a Pokemon have access on a different menu to all their moves, and being able to swap between the 4 usable ones on the fly. Which would be more convenient, but throw off the balance of the single player campaign a bit. Of course, not like GF cares about that.
Isaac Torres
pokemon Sage
Dominic Rogers
Zigzagoon wasn't a dog.
Landon Harris
racoon dog, aka tanuki not literally a dog, but fills the role
Leo Walker
Where is the third gym in Vega?
Juan Scott
Has there ever been a lewd pokemon romhack?
James Walker
Don't
Noah Parker
So far, the closest thing is Moemon.
Jayden Myers
I was desperately looking for something that looks like shit but they honestly all look pretty good and some of them even look like they could be in an actual Pokemon game, Viipii for example.
Nicholas James
make one make an romhack X or Y and call it "Pokemon H" :^)
Joshua Jackson
Why
Anthony Rogers
they probably worked on these longer than gamefreak does with a given batch, to be fair
Camden Ross
Kek
Alternatively, and now that I remember, there's the Busty May mod for Pokemon ORAS. Also, there's a mod that make her naked, but nothing more.
I doubt it, maybe it's just a really autistic community that submitted really good ideas.
Justin King
Gee, I wonder.
Henry Nguyen
True they are working for a big company forcing them to release furrybait as soon as possible, but those fan made mons, most of them, are far more original than any recent official gen
I suppose having an entire community woeking o them instead of just a bunch of people helps with creativity
Lucas Thomas
Isn't a community a bunch of people?
Joshua Russell
Isn't it possible to add Pokemon to Pokemon Showdown? I want to try sticking in some Fakemon for fun.
Angel Gutierrez
The better question is, when's rotation battles in Pokemon Showdown
Matthew Johnson
Pic related
They did crazy shit. It was by committee, but it had to get over 2/3rds of the vote to get in. And designs were tweaked over and over and over until it got 2/3 approval again.
Ethan Hernandez
How democratic of you.
Jacob Richardson
Ah fuck, I didn't mean to name-fag. I was in a thread elsewhere.
And yeah- red handed. I'm working on it. I was gonna fess up in my second post.
Blake Scott
I sort of assumed you did, given that you know how they choose designs.
Ryan Ortiz
Why are so many Mexican pokemons? The game region is mexico or something?
Brandon Perry
Yep. Much like how the regions have been based on areas of Japan/America/France, "Urobos" is based in South America.
Juan Anderson
Not all south america is mexico, but whatever. I hope it have some cool Jungles, at least.
Blake Davis
Oh boy have we. It's the dark patch in the bottom left.
Carter Barnes
Nice. It actually looks really good. Any chance you guys could make it 3DS compatible? It would be damn nice to play on 3DS.
Jaxson Hughes
They're shit. Almost all of them have way too much going on, which is hilarious considering how many people complain about actual pokemon being over designed.
William Lopez
A heavily modified RPG Maker game that plays just like a Pokémon game. What more does a Pokémon game need?
Josiah Brooks
It's designed for one screen on PC. Though I'm not against anyone modifying it.
Justin Myers
It's open source? I can just port it myself.
Mason Gray
Well, the folder you'd download has the .exe and all the content of the game in the folder along with it.
So if you've got all that and know how, I suppose ya could convert it.
But that isn't my area of expertise.
Luis Ramirez
I'm gonna get this out of the way and ask, rough guesstimate of next update? I'm aware that you guys don't like to specify but I must have some timeframe to dump my dreams into.
Aiden Butler
Well, one faggot was in the middle of porting Undertale to the 3DS, I'm sure me and some other autist can do the job. It would be easier if you could ask your group of autists, tho. Porting games to 3DS shouldn't be hard now that homebrew and CFW is accessible.
Robert Gray
modding capabilities non-tile based movement interesting minigames being able to have your pokemon behind you ala HGSS(although this one's possible in aru pee gee makeru reworking the HM system letting you use pokemon as a mean of transportation instead of needing bikes race battles maybe? just my opinions
Hunter Parker
Mosshroom and Lumishroom are shit. They look like a heap of grass with mushrooms on them. Especially Mosshroom, I had to look very hard to notice that pile of grass even had eyes. You have to make them more distinctive.
Caleb Young
God damn I can't wait for the release of this.
Cameron Mitchell
I think that's the point.
Daniel Murphy
I meant the color pallet.
Logan Johnson
you've got my attention, could you explain some of these? Dragon Boneyard in particular?
Landon Baker
Why are Dragons so special?
Christopher Price
Next demo which goes up to 3rd gym is "Soon"TM (this year). Then we're going under thanks to what happened to Uranium and AMR2 until its done.
Daniel Martinez
This was made before the Fairy Type existed. Also, Faries would probably have a whole "return to nature" thing instead of a graveyard.
Samuel King
The Scrapyard is where all of Dronia tends to send their old metal to be recycled. Teenagers tend to loiter around it, but they're harmless. You'd have to be a real jerk to turf them out.
The boneyard has plans, but we're focused on earlier areas first. As you mentioned fairy I think it's best to mention we're not including fairys or megas. Development started before the last gen, so we're kind of set in our ways and generation.
As for the deep jungle, I wonder what you could find…
Dragons have big bones and are infamous for being tough. Seeing a boneyard of them is pretty spoopy.
Christopher Roberts
Oh yeah. Well, damn, I don't have a witty retort for that.
Tyler Bailey
do you have a plan for if nintendy C&D's the project, would there be a secret resource dump as some kind of plan B?
Camden Clark
Are there any other fangames that brought that tried to use shadow pokemon?
The only one I remember off the top of my head is Pokemon rejuvenation, but that's a part of the Pokemon Reborn Tumblr crowd.
Samuel Jones
the only people who complain about that are shitters like yourself
Gavin Morales
Wiki would probably be dead, but we make back-ups.
The plan if we don't get C&D is to spread the final game as far as we can before we get one.
Now if we get one in the middle of development- lets say we developed it in secret, then released it to the public. It's obvious it's us, so we'd get sued. Hell, that might happen even if someone else took the reigns.
We have plans to keep under until it's done, and places like this will get a link- but once we get that threat of massive fines- we're dead.
Daniel Diaz
understood, I'm looking forward to seeing this get made, is there an ETA?
Julian Cook
Better keep yourself in anonymity then. Look at AM2R. Better push the damn 3DS port, fag
Liam Peterson
Since gen 2 even.
Zachary Rogers
Huh? There's a ton of strange and not animal based pokemon in there.
Jayden James
All of those are possible on RPG Maker though
Lucas Thompson
no.
Christopher Phillips
The tile one isn't, but with heavily modified RPG maker the other ones are more than possible.
Juan Butler
OK gotta admit that got me laughing.
Tyler Mitchell
Mythical pokemon have always been freely distributed user. Deoxys is the one exception, but before ORAS he was also freely distributed.
Kayden Williams
There's been pixel based movement scripts since forever. Hell, googling just now gives me a result from 2007
