How about making a Master pokemon PBS file? I've tried, but I know I'm missing some things. Here's the deal, the PBS that comes with the gen9 expatiation to essentials is up to date for the latest games, BUT there is a catch. Moves that were removed from games were also removed from the pokemon as well.

For example, in gen 9, Sonic Boom was removed from the game, so the it was removed from Magnemite's move pool. As far as I can tell, no one has ever made a composite file to make it so that every pokemon has acess to all the moves they can learn across all the generations (including the gen1/2 TMs).

Something like that would be a valuable resource if you put it on Eevee Expo or something. It would be an easy way to get your name credited in a lot of games.

Say, what is a PBS file in the first place? Me dunno anything and my experience with game design extents to Neopets white papers that were used on Neopets clones websites.

And like I said, there were a lot of mistakes on GF part... INCLUDING ORIGINAL LEARNSETS. Such as the excessive distribution of Toxic.

I think the only way of making a good Pokémon is to only take Gamefreak's intent, not their actions.

>>58627578
Has anyone fixed the Lazarus game yet?

>>58627578
Quick, let's talk about Pokemon game balance while the trannies are shitting up another thread!

I believe Pokemon games should open with a Safari Zone to let you catch a variety of Pokemon ASAP. Just remove Bait/Rock from the game and make Ball always work.

First visit to the Safari Zone's free, but you can only access 1-2 areas before getting kicked out, and you can't return until a few Badges later.

I hate backtracking but I would make an exception to games that aim to give you access to a colossal pool of Pokemon before getting whatever key item lets you fight Gym Leaders officially.

Also islam is the religion of pedophiles, mohammed had a child bride and the left defends that because it's fetishized sickness first and invents excuses for it to fool dumb people later.

>>58627696
Download Pokemon Essentials. The "Pokemon.pbs" file is the text file containing every Pokemon's data.

Their types, learnsets, that sort of thing.

I like it more than how Pokemon Emerald separates Pokemon by families and puts their learnsets and other data in other files. Such a fucking pain to find what I want to edit.

>Seaglass style Alola
Whoa. 3D Alola converted into 2D, with the Gen2+ aeatgetic, and built in the Decomp. An exciting prospect.
I remember when people were shitting on Nemo and Seaglass because the were mad about how much traction it got for being a "glorified Hoenn pallete swap". Way to prove the haters wrong, while filtering out all the undesirable along the way. Very inspirational stuff.

>>58628193
>Alola next
Well, another Alola demake? We'll see which one comes out first and which one will be better.
I wonder if this Alola demake will have a full dex like the og games or if it'll be a small dex like Seaglass and Lazarus

So, does anyone know if programming multiple endings is possible? I want the endgame choice to fluctuate between 2-3 options depending on if certain flags are raised. So, lets say I want the third, secret option to be available only if you obtained the masterball. Would that be possible? If the answer is yes, how difficult/plausible would it be if obtaining the masterball is dependent on a variable, a la, happiness? (Only difference is that it wouldn't be a Pokemon's happiness, but rather an NPC's)

I assume the endgame would check for something like "received masterball" or something similar

>>58628258
Of course it's possible.

Lazarus is Dreamstone but worse. You can't convince me otherwise.

>>58628267
Thanks. This is the first time I'm actually creating something, so I don't quite know the finer details of what's possible.

>>58628272
It would work the same way any other branched event does: check for flag(s), perform action if true. The only difference from how it's normally done is triggering credits afterward.

Lazarus is mediocre, but the discourse around it is to poisoned on every angle sadly.

>>58628302
I'll throw in an angle that you probably haven't heard, but it's just relaying what my friend told me: Lazarus doesn't do a good job trying to replicate the GSC aesthetic, especially in the overworld. It's the same thing as Nekoweb's attempt at the old web aesthetic. Too saturated and the detail priority is confused.

>>58628297
Dark Rising and the Saiph/Sors series

>>58628312
This so much. A lot of sprites feel out of place.

>>58628270
Damn, Lazarus must be really awful. Since Dreamstone was nothing special.

>>58628302
I don't know how anyone thought an original region hack rushed out with a single year of development time would be anything but mediocre and unpolished. it's actually surprisingly competent given how quickly it was developed, but it just needs more time in the oven. this feels like a beta. but yeah, people are honing in on the tranny shit, and that gives nemo a convenient shield to avoid criticism. almost makes you wonder if that was intentional.
Seaglass was mediocre too, these games are really just riding off their art. I suspect Nemo just wanted the rush of success he got with Seaglass, and didn't actually want to commit to the full dev cycle these games need. and now he's going to retreat and claim any criticism is bigotry. which is a shame, because he clearly is talented and could make great games if he put put in more time.

Every gym battles and sidequests are disappointingly uninspiring...
Is Lazarus really overhyped?

I'm inclined to defend Lazarus because it's very clearly a game that wouldve been 10/10 the year unbound came out but because it's 2025 and people are itching to virtue signal about how bigoted they are it's suddenly "mediocre"
Mediocre compared to what? Odyssey, that had a 4 year dev cycle? The so called outlier of the year?
Yeah it might be worse than that. Have you looked at all the other popular shit released (or not released) this year? Lazarus clears all of that.

>>58628557
>4 year dev cycle for Odyssey
Holy, and that game sucks too.

>>58628564
In Odyssey you can feel an overwhelming hatred for enhancement hacks and I think the people that eat that slop feel the burn on their tounge

Does anyone here have experience with the Pokeemerald decomp?

>>58628341
>it's competent
Which makes the fact that it came out in this state even more tragic, frankly. It probably won't even improve either, because of what I mention below.
>almost makes you wonder if that was intentional
Without a doubt, I'd bet everything on it. Ever since gay marriage got legalized, people began hiding behind the LGB(and later T) as shields for their own ends, recognizing their political power. It's exactly like using appeals to faith, just for an audience who doesn't have a traditional faith.
The developers don't WANT criticism, they only want praise, because praise feels good and criticism feels bad.

>>58628557
>so called outlier of the year
See, I don't get this defense. Why wouldn't we want better things? Just because the good thing is an outlier doesn't mean we don't want more of the good. The thing is, someone's gotta set the bar on quality, and it's going to be the above-average outlier. Anyone else, and we're just going to get more of the same.
You just used the same exact defense that game developers used on Silk Song and Elden Ring, and one of those wasn't even that stellar compared to shit that was coming out 20-30 years ago.

>>58628557
>it's very clearly a game that wouldve been 10/10 the year unbound came out
Yeah, well Unbound raised the bar. People thought that it would change the romhacking scene, but there's been nothing close to it in terms of scale and polish. The worst part about Lazarus is that it COULD be great. Nemo clearly has talent and vision, and it's a fairly impressive hack for something that was made in a single year. But imagine what it could have been with two, or three years of dev time. And yeah, on the other hand, it is nice not to wait for years for a hack to come out like has become the norm. But people want another Unbound or something close to it, and you don't get an Unbound in one year. Even if this had been posited as a "version 1.0" with a 2.0 somewhere on the horizon, I would be a little more lenient with it, but Nemo seems like he's ready to walk away from it already, besides some minor bug fixes. It would be awesome if he'd say "hey, my original music isn't up to standards yet but I want people to be able to play the game, so I'm gonna release it with some placeholder tracks for now and release an update in the future when the music is ready". People don't mind waiting, it took Unbound ages and several updates to get where it is (it arguably still isn't finished), people are still looking forward to Gaia v4 and Clover 2.0. It just feels kind of shitty to release something that is so clearly unpolished and then walk away and say you're done, when there is so much more potential to it. It's a decent game, but it could be a lot more.

>>58628597

No its just a fact dude like people were calling emerald imperium good its just a fact to say that odyssey is an outlier

That IS a defense. Defenses can be factual, they don't have to be opinionated or misinformation.
I haven't played the Emerald Imperium, I'm kind of catching up with romhacks from the 2000s, so fuck if I know what's actually good. I'm just pointing out that the defense being used there is exactly the same as those game developers who freaked the fuck out at a successful game that broke all of the "rules" that they adhered to like gospel.

>>58627772
Because they can't make anything, so they resort to trying to tear down what others do make.

You can make a hack without retard flags, just don't take a stance within your creation and ESPECIALLY don't interact with social media in any capacity (which means absolutely ZERO public discord servers) if you don't want your creation to become a battlegrounds for bullshit.
Just make it, drop it quietly, and then bail. If something does happen somehow, it won't be because of you, so you can continue to stay the fuck away.

>>58628225
Wiht heh Gne2 aeitteitc

>>58628721
Well, your options with old maps are: leaving them in and making them inaccessible, replacing them with your own maps, and deleting them.
Which one you choose is up to personal preference and doesn't really have an impact on the final game.

>>58628736
I'm just gonna add my own suggestion here: If you do want to add positions to your game, make them as inconsequential story wise as possible. That way, you can release two versions, one with those views, and the other with the other position. You'll draw the hate from everyone but it'll be fucking hilarious.

Alright anons, I need some help/ideas to deal with some Mystery Dungeon (not Pokémon) related files
>Why?
To put it bluntly EoS Engine sucks. I'm trying to at least get the most simple mechanics of PMD into Shiren the Wanderer 4/5 DS. The problem is that a shit ton of files seem compressed/wrapped with GYU0/SIR0 respectively and the tools for that don't seem to work properly/doesn't yield anything I can recognize
I know it's possible since there are unnoficial Chinese/Korean translations for the game but tracking info about those is an absolute fucking nightmare.
Thanks in advance

>>58628850
What's wrong with the EoS engine?

>>58628901
Compared to Shiren 4/5:
>Pretty slow overall, lags pretty badly when there's a monster house, which are like 2 times smaller than Shiren Monster Houses
>lack of features like Shuffle maps (non-blocky dungeon terrain, even Shiren 1 had that)
>lack of miscellaneous mechanics like better shops, Specialty Shops, Elite Shops, Discounts and Shiny Objects
>lack of Dungeon features like doors, Item islands (sorta), Lava, mobile tiles, Gitan Rooms, hidden hallways/rooms, Maze/Spring rooms or special floor layouts (like Chunsoft floors), Special monster houses
Iirc Super tried to add most of these but the reception was pretty mixed
Sure EoS is playable, but far from "excellent" imo

>>58628933
And tbf you COULD implement a few of these mechanics in EoS but imo that feels backwards and not worth it, EoS foundation (as a game) is already pretty shaky

>>58628557
I'm not done with Lazarus yet, but I like it more than Odyssey.

Just wanted to thank you bros for all your posts since it made the archive search looking for good romhacks really convenient. Ended up going with these though I've only finished Yellow Legacy and going through Crystal now.

Yellow Legacy
Crystal Legacy
Emerald Legacy
Clover Fangame
Odyssey Fangame
Unbound Fangame
Mariomon Fangame
Glazed Fangame
Lazarus Fangame

Liked most of what was done with yellow legacy besides it turns out some self insert random tranny I had to beat to catch Articuno (the only legendary bird I like). Really enjoying Crystal Legacy but seems there are a ton of qol+ hacks for the original game it so maybe it's not that special. Read they bumped up the oddish line stats though I'm content to play through it. Guess Lazarus isn't really "complete" but I just can't help but be interested in messing around in an ancient greece themed region.

>>58627772
Mixture of things:

1. It's a pretty highly anticipated hack from the dev who made Seaglass, which was one of, if not the, most popular romhacks last year.

2. It's a full original region with gen 2 style graphics, which is genuinely pretty impressive to make in a year, and pretty rare as far as most romhacks go, giving it mass appeal for most pokemon fans

3. It's got some shit in it that's particularly triggering for right wingers and most people here the music is mixed pretty poorly (apparently the dev literally has hearing loss issues) and then there's the big things, the male character is a nigger (and also literally just ekko in arcane s2 lmao) it does the cringe "type 1 type 2" shit, and the dev has put tranny and fag flags all over the place.

I honestly didn't care about the first bit, you can use a cheat code to unlock all outfits from the start and play as a bunch of other PCs from other pokemon games and Link from botw, body type shit hasn't ruined any game for me, and if it was just in the lab the flags would be cringe but fine, but they're scattered in a bunch of houses which is pretty grating.

This was always going to get shitposters on here riled up, it's a variety of factors that make it so no matter how good the region, battles, characters, mini games, and mon selection actually are, there's going to be a million fags on here spamming about the flags or the nog protag.

4. The dev is a fragile faggot and made the dumbest possible move of posting on reddit about how much everyone hating on the music and troon shit hurt his feelings. This retarded decision was always going to make the shitposting and flaming of the game even worse, since the dev literally gave everyone flinging shit at his game exactly what they wanted by confirming their comments got to him. If the dev just shut his mouth this whole shitstorm might've smoothed over pretty quick, but because he didn't, now it's going to be impossible to talk about this hack for a while

>>58628988
The only discussion surrounding it will be about how to delete the fagshit from the game.

>>58628956
Legacy hacks piss me off because they're perfect entry gates for romhacks but the devs always force themselves in as custom trainers in random areas. Emerald Legacy has you fight a trainer to get Latias/Latios on their island despite it being the fucking postgame, so there's no reason for them to even gatekeep it for balancing reasons.
Trainer Hill also is full of dev trainers using legendaries, it's so retarded.

>>58628173

"If you ignore elephant in the room, is Lazarus actually good?" Review by some random shmuck aka me

++The overworld and Pokemon sprites are amazingly done. Some are directly ripped from official titles, but the new ones work, shame not every mon has a second frame, most sprites are just stretched and jump up and down like in Seaglass.
+New region which is alright even if I was expecting more from Greece, new Mega forms are pretty basic but work just about right (only issue is giving Mega Tinkaton with sledgehammer Huge Power instead of Earth Eater clone) and quests are actually fine and doable instead of grindy, so basically middle point between how Mariomon (good) and Tourmaline (bad) does it.
+Big variety of encounters and game handles it surprisingly well. I don't think every hack needs to have 1000+ mons, but having a variety is good. Some Wishing Well choice are weird tho or tied to sidequests.
+It's 100%ing and challenge run friendly and Zoo is a cool side activity, just, only after you are fine with using cheatcodes like remote PC one. I mostly didn't use them, except for Game of Thrones Rockruff.

-Music. Would've been a double minus, but some tracks have genuinely good melodies, it's just that again, first they made Demo versions of tracks and then later they've realized it'd be impossible to implement. After getting spoiled with Clover's and Coral's masterful understanding of gen 2-3 OST, this is a stepdown, but again, could be Tourmaline level
-trainer sprites
-there’s like no dungeons? Victory Road is a straight line. Only one Gym is a puzzle and it is bugged (you can redo it right after) and only one I can think of being the Dark Ice Cave. Again, it's better than Tourmaline's alternative, but the result is that this game just exists outside of towns.
-Bugs, lots of them
--Hard Mode's level caps being below that of trainers which I will always criticize and move/ability choices on mons like Flower Trick on Grafaiai, Shadow Tag on Noctowl.

now, I have a theory, game allowing donations and already saying what the next project will be, the flags were put specifically to bait normal people. Barely anyone discusses this game on Xitter outside of someone reposting my pic with flags. This is same tactic I've seen with Reborn, Pisces or even Uranium. If game gets controversial for politically correct reasons, it's like hitting a goldmine, perfect way to generate views or stuff on Patreon. I am calling it right now. Nemo will take down the game after seeing any more criticism like mine and will only release future projects after paywall. I'm so tired of this community being treated like puppet consumers even by fancontent makers...

>>58627783
Why do you assume everyone who hates insanely out of place immersion breaking corporate propaganda must hate gays

>>58629141
because they make no attempt to try and hide it. it's fine if you hate faggots and i'll even give the fact that it has flags in it that offend your sensibilities but come up with some others cons against the game

>>58629141
>out of place immersion breaking corporate propaganda
Anon, no one actually thinks this. Any normal person just would not care about a poster on a wall.

>>58629151
>>58629161
They're the most obnoxious visual assets in the game, qualitatively
No attempt was made to make them fit, into either the pokemon universe or the game's art style
It's okay if you don't care about the gay community or how they're represented, or minority communities, or greek culture, or even pokemon as a series, but acting like this isn't very convincing

>>58629176
so if the flags were edited a bit so they colors were more in line with the rest of the game you'd be okay with it? good to know.

The music from Lazarus is a free download Windows GM midi with the drum channel assigned to a piano, so it plays wrong notes over and over again that should be a snare drum and cymbal. A lot of the music in the game is like this.
Apparently, they wanted to replicate GBC music, but they could have done that with the PSG channels built into the GBA, since GBA can authentically replicate the Game Boy Color’s audio out of the box. Also, the GBC didn’t use Windows General MIDI samples and didn’t play drum parts on the wrong channels.

>>58629183
Yeah, if they were altered a bit to not be the exact symbols of literal real life movements and didn't stand out from everything around them to the point of being obviously A Statement to get attention, then there'd be no problem and people would just be complaining about the music and the character design and the writing

How can I make a patch to replace the f(l)ags in Lazarus?

How? Is the newest hack, it looks like ass, sounds like shit and it has stuff most anons don't agree with.
You are mixing whining with simply disliking something and then moving on with your day.
Of course, there will be always some schizo that cannot let a topic rest, but most people just think it looks like shit, make fun of it and move on.

>>58629061
What an awful year for hacks. Only Clover can save us.

>>58629200
Motivational posters didn't involve actual corporations, but they became symbols of corporate culture because of how they were used and what they meant, how they were intended to interact with the audience to fit them into some kind of safe collective framework, the pretense of something approachable masking an ideological unification that accepts only the most identically functional and therefore universally replaceable parts
As a more recent example, person or behavior is not described as having 'HR lady' traits because they always literally work for a Human Resources department, but rather for exhibiting similar identifiable traits used for societal control
The gay flag, while not even something I'd care much about in real life (and vastly prefer over the literally copyrighted ugly ass progressive flag everyone's been using since they realized they didn't include and center black and indiginous bodies enough in the LGBTQIA2P+ community), is here in this game an example of pandering to that mindset, devoid of soul

>>58629188
Based on my knowledge of the sappy engine from fuckiing around with it in other romhacks, I think the sound part of your post is way off the mark by just assuming Nemo dumped in Windows general midi samples.
I think Nemo just imported the midis directly and never bothered using any editing tools like anvil studio or whatever. its also not that easy to copy sounds from two different sound engines either.

I started my hack about two years ago, did a lot of work on the assembly/C++ code for new battle additions and fakemons and really enjoyed it
Making maps though sucked giga penis and made me put it off, but maybe because I'm just retarded and can't figure out how to make tilesets
I've spent a while merging the latest expansion changes and want to get back into it also because I got laid off

I'm making a game and it's not a retarded rom hack. autistic troons have way too much of an advantage in rom hacking because they can waste all their time doing this pointless shit 20 hours a day and it doesn't even bother them because they don't feel pain or something. being forced to make your own nongroomy/noncreepy/nonpedo rom hack is also a lose scenario because you're wasting your life doing this retarded shit just to prove something to troons who reproduce by desperately trying to grooming kids and autistic adults with rom hacks and it's all extremely meaningless. they'll just keep wasting their life making pedogroomer tranny romhacks until eventually committing suicide because they have nothing else going on. don't get baited by these troons into wasting your life like them just to try and prove some gay and retarded meaningless point unless you actually already REALLY want to make a rom hack just for fun in your spare time as a hobby. But still that time would be better spent doing something else like making your own game and not a gay as fuck rom hack that any kid could make if they wasted their time.

fan project culture is different, there isn't as much of an audience for unofficial games, otakus make their game privately and share it amongst their friends, or maybe take it to a comiket for a few dozen people to see.
Not many people there are interested in telling the world about their passion project and becoming a niche internet microcelebrity.
At least we got Vega.

>>58630001
they would rather rope themselves than dare to create a fan game that might upset their supreme overlord nintendo

>>58630001
Aside from being cocksuckers to copyright, japs generally view romhacks as some kind of novelty to fool around with, rather than a fulltime commitment to making a whole thing out of a game.
They also generally assume the stance of "this isn't really that impressive, you just modified someone else's pre-existing work" when it comes to hacks, especially compared to the amount of effort they put into for parodies that act as game mockups, so only a niche audience will really look at it and go "huh, that's cool" on principle.
Really, the Meteor Pokemon Saga (Altair/Sirius, Vega, Procyon/Deneb) is an outlier in terms of how jap hacking usually goes, and that's subsequently the result of its team sticking to existing as a completely unknown group to avoid getting in trouble.

>>58630163
>Noon
It's basically the iFunny version of a Pokemon meme hack, it and Clover are even planning on doing an official collab together. Still very early into development, so there isn't too much interest in it, never mind being too edgy for most common communities to want to regard it.
>Cope
Moderately modified Kanto retread that replaces the roster with a wide array of CAPmons as seen in the Clover Showdown server, as well as some official Clovermons. It's much more of a general shitpost compared to Clover being a 4chan tribute.
To my understanding it's playable into postgame, but there's some minor oversights and quirks (mostly related to text and the VS Seeker, I believe) you'll need to be mindful of since it's only version 0.9.5.

Still adding trainers to the battle tower. I'm going to skip out on adding most of the 6th gen gym leaders since almost all of them canonically don't even have 4 pokemon. I was willing to ignore this for their hotel and PWT teams, but I wanted the tower to only be cannon party members. Clemont is the one exception, and that's because I also added in this anime team members.

>>58629308
Is that so? Honestly, I can't think of a easier distribution method. If you have a better idea, I'm all ears and will see what I can do within reason. Either way, I'll give this some thought and see what I can come up with in the future.

Oh yeah. On the topic of moves, there are 2 move reminders for a reason. One of them gives you a list of all the level up moves, and the other is just flat out every move.

Well that was Lazarus. I agree with the other anons, this was really half-baked. Despite hyping up seemingly extinct fossilmons returning, even giving them a special scientific term, the hack does nothing with them aside from the evil team going "we're selling them for money lol." Only one gym had anything resembling a puzzle. There's no beating around the bush here, that music is awful. I was not expecting a GBC-styled gen 3 romhack to hit me with bang up Midis of KK Slider songs and the Windfish theme. Makes me wonder how much time they spent making those minigames instead of working on the main game.

>Bad level design, repetitive backtracking, off key music and more glitches than I've ever seen in a hack (and I finished snakewood).
It's not a 10/10. 10/10 would be polished crystal or Quarantinedex and those were made by trans as well. It has nothing to do with your boogeyman, every time someone releases a half assed game you retards always find the same excuse to dismiss criticism.

>>58631610
After thinking it over, I can add an option to each vendor to give the player 1 of everything. It'll be time consuming to code, but it would help. I'll also have to see if there was a way to do it without triggering the pokedex screen and nickname option or else the player would go through hell using it.

>>58629748
what program are you using, and are you trying to draw your own tilesets from scratch or just edit existing ones? Porymap, the mapping tool for the emerald decomp, has pretty intuitive tileset editing tools. you'll probably also need some pixel editing software like GraphicsGale. you can find people's custom tiles in the OP links, look in the rheg asset library or the team aqua asset rep.
If you're trying to draw your own tiles from scratch, that's another thing entirely though.

I'm the opposite of you, I got a whole region mapped out but hit a wall when it came time to actually program it. I really need to dive back into it.

>reborn victory road

>>58632332
I still can't believe this game is finished even though it's been years, I only watched Shofu's playthrough back in the day and he kept getting update-cucked before dropping it entirely. Bet I could solve those puzzles better than that bitch nigga ever could, and I will once my get my new computer.
Good luck anon, is this your second playthrough?

Is there a hack that removes all of the gay faggot shit from seaglass

Anyone else only play gen 1 and 2 hacks to avoid natures, abilities, and the modern IV/EV system, they trigger my autism if not ideal.

>>58632353
Yes, I beat it once before but that was years ago.

>>58632346
>>58632338

Reborn's victory road fucking rules, though. It's so rare to find a proper dungeon in a Pokemon fan game. Managed to beat it without a guide the first time and looking forward to doing so again.

>>58632374
i play gen 1 and 2 hacks because they genuinely look better than gen 3

Romhacks where you can romance Carmine and have sex with her?

What if it became an unofficial sote rule that we NEVER humor trannies

A sane world shoots them on sight.

Qualified jannies would ban them on sight.

You can't debate sanity into a tranny.

They failed as men and got fake tits for an easier life. Or failed as women and cut their tits off expecting more privilege only to lose their pretty privelege with 99% of men.

They belong in asylums or the ground.

Now STFU and talk about Pokemon.

Which of those dogshit games is the one that ripped off Etrian Odyssey

>>58632580
My Führer, can you recommend me a 10/10 gameplay romhack without any tranny agenda?

is there any guide for all of the changed stats, typings, and abilities. i don't mind changes like that, but documentation would be nice since the in game pokedex is ass. also it'd be nice to know if there's an easy way to obtain thick club or if i have to keep using covet on every cubone i see on route 1

>>58632586
odyssey

>>58632580
not trans or gay or nonbinary or whatever but I'm going to add a random trans NPC just to make you mald more

Can you elaborate further? Bullet points should suffice

Altaria being Dragon/Fairy is fine if the game in has no Megas like Blazing Emerald. But Mega Altaria is in Lazarus so I don't know why they made even the base form Dragon/Fairy. Infact, something I noticed is that the mons with Megas can have the mega forms abilities has hidden abilities for some reason.(Base Mawile can have Huge Power as a hidden ability for example)

turns out that grinding for thick club encounters is a breeze with the dex nav. desu i don't think any hacks explore giving species exclusive items (besides mega stones) it's always abilities and moves. Besides, Pikachu, Clamperl, Farfeth'd, Cubone, and all the prevos if we're counting eviolite, there aren't really any. exclusive items could have a similar effect to signature abilities or moves, but they come at the opportunity cost of not having a different item which is pretty interesting.

>fan project culture is different, there isn't as much of an audience for unofficial games, otakus make their game privately and share it amongst their friends, or maybe take it to a comiket for a few dozen people to see.
I think the only jap fan game I've actually seen get any traction is the 7th Stand User

>>58631495
>why do fangames have such shit character designs/story, its kind of hilarious
creating/writing good characters is harder than appreciated

game in low framerate areas including the slumbering weald chugs EVEN ON MY GIGA GAMER PC WITH RETROARCH.
missing Quality Of Life features. No auto-run mode toggle.
You start the game with one item blocking your way outside. Pick it up and... it's an Ability Capsule and TwistedSpoon? WTF?
Mom heals you even before getting your Pokemon.
Hop unavoidably beats me as I have no Fire move to roast his Grookey. I beat his Grookey with Tackle and lose to Wooloo.
OH WHAT THE FUCK? ROUTE ONE CHUGS EVEN HARDER?
An invisible wall object blocks the way to the Slumbering Weald. I can click it to interact but it lacks a script.
I should have applied the Framerate Patch when patching the game, it needed to be applied before the Casual Mode patch that gives EXP candy and I can't be bothered to re-patch it from the start. A GBA game shouldn't need a "framerate patch", the moron developer just FLOODS EVERY ROUTE MINDLESSLY with COUNTLESS wild Pokemon overworld sprites running around everywhere until the game CHUGS!
I make it to town 1 and there's a "Travelling Salesman" who offers me tons of OP shit like Life Orbs and Assault Vests and Rare Candies and Max Revives for 1 Pokedollar and I can sell them back to him for hundreds.
Leon talks to me in Town 1 and says to give Oak a Parcel then vanishes. Just teleports away. I go inside the building right behind him and talk to Sonia and give her the parcel. Leon walks in to say thanks.
The Pokemon Center's nurse doesn't have any edits to make her healing me faster.
This is supposed to be a remake of Sword And Shield on the GBA. And already the writing pissed me off with a creative liberty. There's an old man in one of the town one building who has a question mark over his head. A quest? No. Talk to him and he says "When people are alive they want to be evil and destroy the environment but when dying they say doctor let me live one more day so I can be good" r/im14andthisisdeep.
God...
Time to quit.

Call me autistic, but I honestly can't play Lazarus because the music sucks so much. I'm going to try playing it on mute, but the music is part of the appeal of Pokemon for me.

I was using porymap, but I remember wanting to just be able to have every tile loaded at once and just pick and choose which I wanted to use
The merge is almost done, so I suppose it's time to start trying at least

>>58633182
>I remember wanting to just be able to have every tile loaded at once and just pick and choose which I wanted to use
ah yeah, I don't think you can do that in Porymap, at least not to my knowledge. you kind of have to get creative about fitting in all the tiles you want for a specific map sometimes, especially if you have map connections along two maps using different tilesets. I think it's actually a hardware limit that it can only load so many tiles and color palettes.
I think in Essentials you can do that and just use one big tileset for everything.

That is the hack I am actually making.
More Tokyo like Kanto, some cities are pushed to the sides of the map so they can stay more sub-urban (even if they are still big cities IRL) and represent stuff in chiba and kanagawa.
Currently looking at every sumo themed fakemon ever made while trying to brainstorm a sprite for a gen I style version of the Makuhita line, since the original is like every gen 3 design trope in one mon.

>>58632047
Pushing something hard on 4chan will lead to contrarian ire.

>>58628996
Well, the pokémon from other generations will be available in certain specific places like Mt. Silver, Bill's Cottage or Safari Zone, same with regional forms. Kanto will mostly have Kantomon

keep em movin!
