how is puchidan going?
1. the rope you can buy is the pokeball. in order to use the 'capture' skill you need to have a rope.
2. dont be shy about using money to buy medecine, weapons etc.
3. you can only capture monster-GIRLS, not normal mobs. you will know when you see one by the battle sprite, field sprite doesnt matter.
4. use the skill 'observing eye' to know enemy hp.
5. its obvious but, even if the capture failed the rope is gone, make sure to buy multiple.

>dude what if we give all the shitmons perfect coverage and +100 BST to effectively render all the traditionally good pokes of the gen complete garbage but keep it subtle enough early so that by the time the player realizes they're level 30 and still haven't learned a decent STAB move they are getting obliterated by the mighty butterfree on a random trainer

>>59668175

>>
>>59668275
I think that stems from a couple of things. From PVP players who want everything to be viable, and people used to vanilla Pokemon games where you can just keep the first 6 mons you encounter for the entire game.
>>
>>59668327
>and people used to vanilla Pokemon games where you can just keep the first 6 mons you encounter for the entire game.
If it's not buffing shitmons, it's making really good mons available way too early, I've seen too many hacks get cocky with wild starters, Starly, mons who can fully evolve early (stone, happiness, etc.) and the like.
>>
>>59668333
I think my post and yours are related there. People don't want to feel like they're wasting time raising a shitmon when they could have something good earlier on. People want to feel attached to their initial team and take that to the end of the game.
In Starly's case, that is something that Game Freak has designated as an early game mon. I think people don't give it much thought because Game Freak doesn't give it much thought. Aside from the obvious choices like making legendaries unavailable until late/postgame, everything is a free for all. Shitmons can actually benefit from being made available when they are useful to the player, but then we get shit like Z-A where Falinks and Drampa are locked until the very end of the game while you can get Gastly, Magikarp, and in the first hour.
>>
>>59667344
Who?
>>
>>59668275
the worst examples of this are in gen 2 hacks where the dev spends so long figuring out how to make ledian not the literal worst thing ever put into the games that they completely neglect to unfuck the rest of the generation's movepool

most shitmons actually have pretty good strategic sets; they just dont shine in the smogon meta because either the strategy they use is banned, or, more commonly, the banned strategies create a meta that dont allow their moveset to shine.

>I've seen too many hacks get cocky with wild starters, Starly, mons who can fully evolve early (stone, happiness, etc.) and the like.
To be fair, a lot of those mons have low catch rates and PokéBalls can be a bit hard to come by in the early game when you don't have reliable, repeatable sources of income yet, so just because you find a wild starter on Route 1 doesn't necessarily mean you can catch it right away.
>>
>>59668333
>I've seen too many hacks get cocky with wild starters
Eh, even the official stuff does this. Granted the Legends games don't do straight-straight progression and Blueberry Acad's all-starter palooza is considered a type of postgame and is meant to be unlocked with actual effort.

Speaking of, I myself have been planning on what starters to slap in the wild for my game, with an equal number of each of the three types. Sometimes I'm "All the Fire Starters can Mega Evolve but none of the Water ones can" and all that.

why would you ever gate ev/iv training to the post game?? I thought GF does it because it might confuse kids and the main game is easy enough, but why do these romhacks still do it this way? Yeah right just let me beat the big bad and elite 4 and become a champion first, and only then train my pokemons to their better state, make fucking sense

because before the e4 you could ruin your pokemon with rough evs from wild pokemon and random trainers.

Post game battle facilities should be the only time you need to care about EVs or IVs.

Do you all think with the vibecoding and decomps going around, we will eventually start seeing 3D Fangames using BDSP or the 3DS games as a base?
Like new regions, characters, gameplay, Fakemon, so on.

You can already import new maps into BDSP.

>>59668851
You're missing the point by a mile, anone.
It's not a technical issue, but an issue of interest + effort.
People like modern games less than older ones.
And making sprites is much simpler than making 3d models.
BDSP is literal dogshit, too.

>>59669152
Pokemon has always been based on staggered progression, making everything viable right from go removes it. The excitement of getting a Scyther is blunted when Beedrill gets an identical or outright better stat spread and an expanded movepool.
Most shitmons desperately need some sort of buff, even in the vanilla games a lot of them teeter on unsuable garbage in a game made for 10 year olds, but giving every third stage 100+ in an attacking stat isn't an answer. Most hacks that tout major rebalancing just go the route of making everything equally viable which ends up making every poke overlap with every other poke.
As mentioned before, the biggest problem with shitmons is their distribution more so than them just being a shitmon, some stuff is specifically designed to be used in the early game and that's that. There's better ways of enabling mid-late game viability on a shitmon than just making them all turbo-tanks or walking nukes that can hit every type super effectively, for example having their attacking moves frontloaded and shifting towards a support role as they level.

>>
>>59670329
Because the game looks good, has some good original music, and a fun region design.
And, while it didn't invent much, it has a good package of ideas together. Like the miniquests or the zoo.

It is definitely high up in the lists of romhacks in that it is finished, has interesting original content, and avoids becoming a soap opera cringefest regarding the plot. Feeling generally comparable or better than Gamefreak's games most of the time.
The vast majority of hacks miss one or more of those.
>>
>>59670363
I found it incredibly by the numbers and unmemorable. Like going through the motions of what a Pokemon game is without really having any identity. I can barely even remember the story it was so drab.

As someone who loves the gameboy color and crystal's artstyle, saying Lazarus looks good is kind of an insult to pixel art. Way too many clashing aesthetics and it breaks the gbc limitations in ways that make the sprites look worse and more amateur, not better.

>>59670221

I remember it for hyping up fossilmons coming back and then doing nothing with that besides the antagonists selling them for money
>>
>>59670379
To me the aesthetic was clearly inspired by GBC graphics, but never made any promise to abide by their sprite limitations. So it did not bother me at all when the sprites didn't follow those rules.
The story was whatever, but being forgettable is better than being memorable for the wrong reasons.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Nice joke, almost as a joke as this game. Tell me how does it feel to play the Greece inspired game that doesn't allow you to surf between islands for fun, forcing you to go to npcs or flying in the very late game when you access fly?

And, while it didn't invent much, it has a good package of ideas together. Like the miniquests or the zoo.
>The zoo is literally the only good thing about this game, everything else is just bellow normal hack standards

>It is definitely high up in the lists of romhacks in that it is finished, has interesting original content, and avoids becoming a soap opera cringefest regarding the plot. Feeling generally comparable or better than Gamefreak's games most of the time.

LOL, how many games did you play to say this? The devs already got the formula to a T, this game does nothing to make you wow outside of the zoo. The fact that there isn't a post game just because he wanted to be free from it showcases that he is just an one trick pony that outside of false visuals emulating a view that never was, he is devoid of any creativity and you can clearly see in his game he running out of fumes. No wonder he released his project this way just to go for another remake because he is indeed a hack.

The moment he could showcase something that he created himself, it wasn't enough and instead of just holding the release and working on it, he just gave up.
>>
>>59670420
>To me the aesthetic was clearly inspired by GBC graphics, but never made any promise to abide by their sprite limitations. So it did not bother me at all when the sprites didn't follow those rules.
This isn't really the problem, Shovel Knight isn't a bad game because Polar Knight's sprite uses non-NES palette colors or anything. (Maybe Shovel Knight isn't the best example because the pixel art in that game isnt the best but the spriters got better as they went along with the other campaigns) But Lazarus and Seaglass's carefree use of different asset packs by different people creates a really ugly aesthetic clash when one screen can have really basic tiles that are closet to actual Gen 2, really high quality tiles with a far higher level of detail than anything in a real pokemon game, and straight up unedited Gen 3 assets on screen at the same time. And a lot of the 2 color sprites that have been edited to have more colors just don't look great because they were sprited with 2 colors in mind.
There's nothing really wrong with having a faux retro game that breaks hardware limitations, but I don't think the things Lazarus does to break those limitations necessarily make the game look better, and the artstyle just isn't very cohesive due to the clash of free to use assets that are in different artstyles, and the rare sprites that the devs made themselves do just look straight up bad.

The visual clash of assets is so bad that even when he KNEW that the 4 color rule was out of the window, he just lazily used the same sprites.

When you are in the 4 color rules for sprites in GBC games you have: Black, white, and 2 colors to do your pokemon sprite. Since this was a GBA hack and not a GBC, the limitation isn't this low so you can make even better sprites by just adding a single color and it makes TOTAL DIFFERENCE

your color choices are kind of ugly and muddy. i know its like colorpicked from anime jynx probably but it looks pretty bad on a sprite especially one that wasnt made with those colors in mind
>>
>>59670425
It definitely does look good.
It has a charming aesthetic and the environments within the game have good and lush looking maps with a lot of detail. Especially in the second half

The 2.0 release, at the very least, has some very solid music.
Both original tracks and smartly "borrowed" ones like the remixed KK Western from Animal Crossing. Either way, I never had any desire to not listen to the soundtrack and sometimes hung out on a route intentionally to enjoy the music as I played.

You can surf between several major islands.
Avoiding Hoenn Syndrome by using the Master Roshi looking sailor as a short cut teleporter is a fine compromise for me. You need to surf around to complete the whole dex/all the miniquests.
I don't particularly enjoy water routes in any Pokemon game, so making them more-or-less optional is purely a good thing in my mind. I surfed most of them, but that was for completionism, rather than requirement.

You can download a random hack from Pokecommunity or Hackdex and betting odds says it will be one of these three: A.) Abandonware, B.) Lacking any novelty or any unique appeal, C.) Either have zero story or one that is basically Archive of Our Own tier overdramatized.
Lazarus dodges those 3, which puts it above par by far.

Whether an area is post-game or before the credits is just a matter of what level range the monsters in it spawn at.
Lazarus is a pretty big Pokemon game, not the longest, but not short, either. Unless you really love it, I can't imagine the average person is going to feel gypped when the credits roll and they don't have some Kanto or Battle Frontier equivalent left to challenge.

The Zoo is a very good idea that really does need to be copied by most hacks.

This. The type of person who puts Pride flags in their hack is the type of person that can't create, only corrupt.

Case in point the GBC artstyle. As you pointed out he couldn't make a proper retro callback, so he just perverted it instead.

Why bother playing anything from someone like that? Anything they make will as trashy as them.

>>59670459
>Thematically, what other type would striking with a blunt side of a sword be?
You can go the thematic route of relating the move to kendo seeing as Pokemon is Japanese. Make it Grass because of their wooden beatsticks maybe?
I personally like the thought of Zangoose or whoever whipping out a stick and bonking someone in the head with it.

Of course it is, the sprite quality of gen 2 is actually worse than gen 1. Gen 1 had way more details with a single gray tone than what gen 2 could produced so any design from gen 2 is worse when compared to gen 1

Here another example. The beta elekid, 4 colors, and the one being used is the brown one to give him a somewhat shade since he is mostly yellow and black

Here I just changed the colors and instead of white that wasn't being used at all, I managed to make him look quite good by using the recent colors.

Note that even this design that doesn't have white, he would manage to fuck up by adding white overlines

>>
>>59670505
Can you look me dead in the eye and say that Sacrificing 2 grays are worth two colors? The shading of the sprites are all fucked in gen 2 because I'm both cases they only had 4 colors to go and the sprite quality suffers a lot.
>>
>>59670510
And look when they reuse the same sprites, the Loss of depth is so big it hurts.

But this limitation doesn't exists in GBA Games we have way more colors and even the washed colors of gen 3 can showcase way better sprites than gen 1 and 2. Each color in any sprite in gen 3 has the highlight and the shading, it is Technology so much superior it hurts and we are talking about gameboy advance games and pokemon games looks like shit next to Golden Sun and Castlevania games in the same system

Lazarus dodges those 3, which puts it above par by far.

The problem here is that we arent in 2010 anymore, games did evolve and even when Lazarus used a base that already did the work for him, he failed to do anything of note with it.

Here, Saiph 2, I am SOARING THROUGH THE MAP, in a GBA games released 3 years ago with a total new story and doesn't even use the gym system since I am a cop here.

Lazarus got me what? The same formula but worse? We have tons of games already, the bar is already high. I am not asking him to give me another Unbound, just give me SOMETHING other than this bland meal that isn't trying to do nothing. And how he release it makes it even worse: he knew the game wasn't up to quality standards, he knew the music was dogshit and there wasn't a post game at all. I am not even talking about battle frontier, just a quest that gives you a challenge. Anything other than a: gotta go to next project since I gave up on this

Polished Crystal's Morty is fucking ridiculous for that point of the game.
You change Noctowl to Flying/Ghost (instead of Flying/Psychic like it SCREAMED to be retyped because you are mentally retarded) then pull the rug out from the player when the first time it would really be useful the entire team is specifically designed to counter it. Or maybe the player is a bit more cautious, they picked Pidgey as their early game bird. Wrong choice dipshit, the team also counters Flying types as a whole, the Ghost immunity means nothing. The Murkrow you just picked up can get fucked too, get outsped dipshit. Maybe the player was really, really cautious, picked up a Stantler. Normal/Psychic now, that should be an ace in the hole. Wrong choice again you fucking numbskull, the only move worth a flying fuck against this team that you have is Astonish because you don't learn an attacking Psychic move on the Normal/Psychic literally my mom's caribou until level THIRTY FUCKING EIGHT. Alolan Raticate maybe? Normal/Dark should be pretty decent for this, the stats really aren't there but the typing sh- WRONG CHOICE RETARD, Misdreavus has a Fairy move, now he's dead fuck you.
Oh yeah, also the whole fucking team also has a Ground immunity because go fuck yourself, here's a team composition check when you have access to like 8 TMs and haven't seen 3/4 of the roster.

Okay I feel better now.

Hey lads
looking for some Gen 3 to 5 style games to play. Dont mind if they're new stories or just difficulty hacks of the original ones, but hoping for ones with a difficulty balance above the official games and below bullshit minmax "one team comp only to win" stuff
basically ones where you have to think about your team comp and the big fights are tricky but not ones where you need to build specific teams for each major fight
any recommendations?
>>
>>59670551
The bar for rom hacks isn't that high. Simply having a completed game in a unique region is in the top 10% of hacks, creatively.
People make what they want to play, and it turns out a lot of people like the standard Pokemon structure.

you can still try moemon

anyway if you are not into touhou you can try touhoumon red 1.5, which basicly touhou as fakemons, instead of something like purple that changes the type chart or puppet play which overhaul the evolution mechanic and let you choose your starter between all tohos in the first 15 games

...know what fine

Faithful only reverts type changes, some moves, and custom stat distributions.
You'd need to shut off Abilities and the Physical/Special split to even resemble vanilla Crystal Morty. Which I'm honestly not far from because Levitate Wide Lens Hypnosis/Dream Eater/Thunderbolt/Shadow Ball Gengar is insane when you're hovering around level 25.
It would have been more palatable if the hack was like this from the get-go but up to this point you're able to make it through using your chosen team intelligently, Morty is the mask off moment where it says "okay, time to make a team specifically designed to beat this one fight" and once a hack reaches that point the hellish slog ahead of you reveals itself.
>>
>>59671418
Update
I PP stalled the Gengar to death swapping between a Pidgeotto and Onix for 10 minutes straight then Curse boosted to +5, set Sand, and one shot the rest of his team, fuck you suck my dick choke on it.

infinite use is cool because when well hidden, it feels like you unlock a satisfying permanent upgrade for your character.

Assuming no split? Just don't give it good stab moves. Make it just like gen 2 gyarados (which is still decent) that's bulkier physically but slower. The slightly lower special attack would make it worse, as it can't fire off Surf that well, but it'd still be alright if it's got slash and body slam.
>>
Gotta ask - do you feel that trying to include every starter ever in a game (in my case I'm putting them in the wild much like Blueberry's terrarium) is a bit of a turn-off? Bastards occupy like 81 slots on a dex, thinking about it.

>>59672798
Gyarados and Golisopod have the same special attack, so the Surfs would do as much damage, they'd just come out second more often than not.
I don't think Bug STAB would break the game when you've got to babysit pic related to 27000 experience.

Don't know how far your raunchy goes, but if they're not OK'd by the big sites most probably have to host it themselves, be it on a website, a Github repo, or most realistically today a Discord server. They could also try putting it on HackDex, or maybe PokeHarbor or I dunno Gamebanana if it's a romhack.
>>
>>59672858
Bug stab without good water stab then? basically a bulkier slower pinsir with a more interesting defensive combo. If it's gen 2 or 1 (I'm assuming since no abilities), your pre buff Leech Lifes and Pin Missiles are the only stab you'd have. There's a good case to give it First Impression, but that's quite a powerful priority move on such a user given gen 2's powerlevel. If it's gen 2 mechanics but with the buffs, I think it'd be quite good but not overpowering with Leech Life.
>>
>>59672882
The plan is gen 2 with modern move damage, so it wouldn't be completely bereft of useful Bug STAB. You do have a point with First Impression, it probably doesn't need that move right after evolving and definitely doesn't need the buff Champions gave it.
>>
>>59672697

No dexnav and some mons have 1% encounter rate, good luck to find certain pokemon without checking doc.
Exp gain is weird af, I have team exp share on and the mons that don't battle level faster than the one does the battle. Overall you gain little exp, defeating mons that 10 levels above you yields only 700+ exp. By the time I got to the champion fight I'm 10 levels lower. I really don't want to grind exp on wild mons so I gave up.
They also did balancing change which I don't want, certain pokemons have type/ability/base stat altered, but if I disable that I think it will also disable Fairy type.
>inclement emerald
The better one of these, but lacking qol:
You can't jump to the pokedex for the pokemon on your team.
No fast run.
The text speed, animation speed, and overall menu speed are as slow as vanilla, and they added wild encounters on picking up berries/slash trees, which is nice but since there is no fast run, so it gets annoying really quick.

it's tricky, cause if you include one you feel like you need to include them all, or at least all of a certain generation, but more than likely all of them. but I do feel like they would bloat wild encounters personally, especially if they're all encountered fairly early on.
personally I'm planning to distribute them in a special Safari Zone-esque area. I need to work out the details because I don't want the player to be able to just waltz in and catch 30 starters at once, there needs to be some limits or challenge to it. but I think, for me at least, giving them a special distribution area like that is gonna work best. depends on what the Pokemon distribution is like in your hack though. if you're going with large encounter tables, you can probably squeeze them in. I'm going for smaller, more curated encounters.
