Makin' a Pokemon Fan Game
So since the Pokemon project is kind of dead on IJBM, I decided to start my own
No new Pokemon will be in it
I'd be using RPGMaker XP with the Pokemon Essentials scripts. This allows a TON of freedom, but DOES have some issues. Such as almost no attacks having any animations. At all. So yeah
To do list:
-Create Hero Sprites
-Create Gym Leaders (all 17 of the fuckers)
--Create Gym Leader strategies (Yep. All are going to be pretty freaking hard if things go right)
-Create new tile sets
-Create all new sprites for the overworld
-Get somebody to do music
-Create attack sprites
-Create maps
-Create game
-If I feel particularly like being an ass to myself, then redesigning every Pokemon sprite
So anybody want to join? I'm making it under the Pseudonym Wild_Shiny_Eevee
Basic plot is:
That a competent evil team (GASP! SHOCK! THE HORROR!) has caught Celebi BEFORE you've even arrived in the region (MORE GASPS! MORE SHOCK! MORE HORROR!) and starts screwing with time. Due to this, there are THREE different maps with different Pokemon distributions. Normal happy go lucky Present that has a decent balance of trainers and Pokemon, Bad Present where there are more trainer to compensate for the fact that Pokemon are EXTREMELY hard to find (either all events or else in VERY well hidden or guarded grass/water/caves/etc.), and the Past has fewer trainers (less population) but an abundance of Pokemon.
As an example: Bad Present would have Mewtwo in a mechanized area. The Past, in the same exact spot, would have Mew in a nice peaceful glenn. Good Present would have a nice little park with some wild Pokemon (yes there would possibly be a certain point where you could freely travel between time lines)
Anyways, they are screwing with time in order to piss off Dialga (even though you could probably tell him that it's daylights saving season and he'd get royally pissed off on the spot). So yeah, you go stop them. At one point you fight on an exploding train! 8D
Level Distribution and badges will approximately be:
10 Rock
15 Bug (Past)
15 Normal (Past)
20 Flying (Past)
25 Poison
30 Fighting (Past)
35 Psychic
35 Steel
40 Grass (Past)
45 Water (Past)
45 Ground (Past)
50 Ice
50 Fire
50 Electric
60 Dark
60 Dragon (Past)
70 Evil Team Leader (Past)
75 Electric E4
75 Water E4
75 Fire E4
75 Normal R4
80 Champion
90 Ghost Leader (Any time period)
100 Red
Any situation where a gym shares the same level as another gym just means you can face those gyms in any order you desire
So yeah, anybody else want to join in? I have the heroes sketched out, some of the new tiles done, the plot figured out (obviously), a realization that this is no mere one man project, etc.

I can say names too :|
And I need help
...seriously, halp. pleeeease ;~;
Have you established what kind of software you will be using? Or will this simply be a hack?
I have to redo ALL the tilesets, create the hero characters, the evil team sprites, 17 gym leaders, the E4, the champion, a few other special npcs, write a ton of dialogue, do the maps (A square on the map is 50x50 tiles not including the edges which have to extend further to block out the black border. Just to show how bad this can get: One city is massive enough to hold three gyms, being 7x5 squares on the map. That's a massive 350x250 map I need to do), design all the teams, balance the game...

First one is a rock type Entry Hazard user
All gym leaders will have six Pokemon
He will be an older male architect
His TM given out will be Roar (eyup. He will be a pain in the ass. The gym guide will actually recommend only bringing in one or two Pokemon, or a Pokemon with Sound Proof (I plan to have Whismur be one of the early wild Pokemon))
Onix can learn Stealth Rock, so a Roaring Stealth Rocker would be good
A Boldore could be their strong mon (because lets face it Onix has lower attack than a fucking Caterpie)
Say... Archen? Aerodactyl seems too powerful
That should be good for roarers. Now Pokemon with synergy with them

^^ Sounds good so far
Basically, the gym leader would lean HEAVILY on Ludicolo to the point that taking down his Colo basically makes the match ten times easier... Issue is making the rest of the team still challenging without making it, "I ALREADY BEAT THAT FUCKING DUCK WHY IS THE REST OF HIS TEAM SO HARD!?"

Also, my top four candidates for filling out the Rock team are Sudowoodo, Nosepass, Dwebble, and Rhyhorn. There is no particular reason for this, sad to say.

Fire can have Flareon, Ninetales w/ Drought, Leafeon w/ Leaf Guard, and three others. Normal has Eevee and either Espeon or Umbreon. Electric has Jolteon and either Umbreon or Espeon
Wondering if I should boost Arceus' stats to 1,200 base in each stat...
