As much as I love SuMo, I feel like there was a lot of problems with Pokemon distribution. First of all, there's the way the Pikipek and Yangoos lines were just shoved down your throat. Between the two of them, the only routes that you can't encounter either one are Route 5 and Routes 12-14...

I think leilou's talking about someone preferring to remain uncredited, though, not just someone who's fine with receiving or not receiving credit.

It's looking pretty good so far! I like the shape of the ledges and trees, it feels more like something in nature! A few things I would suggest- You said this was for a town, but there's only two buildings apart from There's some space that gets really, really narrow, where a person wouldn't...

The Pokemon League can be as relevant or irrelevant as you want it to be! The Unova League is almost certainly some form of government for the region. N becomes Champion and Team Plasma's castle surrounds the Championship, and the player is urged to take his title from him to save the region...

Happy birthday!

My post over in the inspiration thread suddenly made me really want to see podcast premises "Pokemonified". The Bridge is a podcast that takes place in an alternate timeline. There are various minor differences in this history, but the most striking one is that a massive bridge was built...

Adding to the "playing other games for inspiration", I think a fun way to look for inspiration is to play games that are very unlike Pokemon games. You might discover something completely out of the box that you haven't been looking for! (I've actually got a sidequest in mind inspired by, of all...

It's more for if the game has a competitive scene. There's not many, but some do, like Reborn, Uranium, and Insurgence.

It's hard to tell someone what music they should pick-the general idea of a region doesn't tell me what your towns or routes are like, and even with more specific designs in mind, what I think the atmosphere of a map is might not be the atmosphere you want. I'd suggest just listening to the...

Oh, I don't know if you intended to leave this out, but there's no pictures by those file names in Essentials (unless v17 added them and I missed it), so they do need to be added beforehand. EDIT: Whoops, my bad! I had missed the download button on the tutorial page!

That's a fantastic formula, and you explained it amazingly in-depth! And I know that list of Pokemon for the Championship will be super useful for planning!

That sounds like a really cool idea! I've never heard of it being done before! For the crossbreeds, I have a kinda gimmicky way you might be able to implement it. You could make the data for crossbreeds a new Pokemon instead of a different from, and instead of actual breeding, you could have...

Quicksaving is a small detail that i really appreciate. I have a tendency to click out of game windows, and that can make menus get locked into downwards scrolling, which can keep me from saving. Thanks for this! (also, I don't think it was intentional, but F8 seems like it could lend itself...

Oh, I can't believe egg hatching never came up in this thread! Egg hatching steps only make sense when the player is given an egg by an NPC. The challenge is for them to continue in the game while reducing their party by one, in hopes that whatever's inside will be worth it, so the long...

I don't know about several years ago, but NoodlesButt's games use it now, and it doesn't seem like there were any lag issues caused by it. EDIT: Ninjaed with another example!

I think getting up to being given a Pokemon should happen pretty quickly after the initial burst of story. Most of the interaction with the world requires having a Pokemon, and there's the barrier of tall grass to worry about. But that's assuming the game takes things a standard route-with a...

Essentials should come with Gens 1-5 already installed. If size isn't defined, you'll need to go to your pokemon.txt (in PBS) and add it in. pokemon.txt is where all the values of a Pokemon are defined-the type, the base Exp given for defeating it, the height, the weight, and so on. Sprite...

I think that's a really cool idea! The crystals look so beautiful, too! I think the only thing I would suggest is maybe brightening up the cave just a bit. (or just the area around the player) I know the glow of the crystals needs to shine through, but it's really hard to see the player standing...

I know there's an NPC that gives them to you somewhere in the building, but I can't recall what floor... Also, there's a rebattle-able grunt that's great for exp!
