Pokemon Acanthite: The GSC Prequel

Status
Not open for further replies.
It looks wonderful. I like Cascade's work.
I do want to add the following:
Very much of the pokemon are skinny.
You need more big defensive looking pokémon like Tyranitar, Nidoking, Nidoqueen , Kangashkan and Aggron.
And rather a 3 evolution pokémon than a 2 or no evolution at all.

The maps look identical to the ones in the current original pokémon generation. I really can't wait 'till I get to play this. ;D
(I love the pokémon RPG's cause they're just... Good RPG's. I hope you can work out the storyline just as good, or even better, as it is in the original pokémon series).
 
Not bad considering they're old! I'll show 'em to the Acanthite team designers and see if they can get anything out of 'em. Thanks :)
The kangaroo is comedy XD

*shot*

I've just redone the entire intro for the game... basically from the Professor's introduction of herself to the bit where you choose your starter. And it looks great. Fantastic, in fact. I think I've set the mood of this game just right... because it ain't your typical happy Pokémon game. I'll get some screenshots at some point.

Demo could be sooner than I expected, what with the battle system almost complete.

(Why can't I directly image that without it lying and saying the pic doesn't exist?)


Some guy made these fake Pokemon. No idea who but they caused a huge uproar because lots of people LOVED the designs (some didn't like the cat's "mouth" though lol). For a few days many thought these were the starters in Diamond and Pearl.
I don't know who made 'em but it probably wouldn't be too hard to track down. You should use them.

Kangaroo = Fighting
Stegosaurus = Psychic (yeah lol)
Cat thing = Dark

I love the Kangaroo (why isn't there a REAL kangaroo pokemon yet!?) and Stegosaurus (perfect because you wouldn't expect to have a tanking dinosaur as a psychic pokemon).
 
It looks EXACTLY like a Pokemon game, that's why it's so damn good.

I can't believe you have that many pokemon made...and each one is great!

Linking on this forum sucks so I can't see it. :)

It's only a Kangaskhan anyway :)



CrapFactory, I know and sometimes talk to Purple Kecleon (who made those fakes) and i've actually been tempted to ask to use 'em... I'll think about it :P
It'd be nice if there was a pretty set of evolutions for 'em though.


We just updated the Pokémon list a bit - there's a few more images that weren't there before, such as Trojors, Viryrm, Cedaling, Pestiloak and Canibree, and a few more question marks added where we're deciding on names still. Also, Squink has been replaced by Plateface's design of it, and Talismite actually displays a picture of Talismite now, instead of Talispine :P
 
Map screenshots are very, very nice, and reflect the style of the official pokemon games beautifully, and their design is probably above par of the towns in the official game.
 
looks amazing maybe if you want to fill in some of the blank spots for the pokemon, you could make the rest of the Eeveeloutions like a grass one or ground flying, just a suggestion
 
Eeveelutions is unoriginal - I'm not fond on having more of 'em

But we're getting there

Water/Light types, these 2 are Angelfish, quite literally :P

Pure ground, although they LOOK like water types. Based off such creatures as the sand shark, they "swim" through sand.

Kiwikou
Emurade (name subject to change)
Ground/Flying, these are effectively flightless birds (the flying type to compensate the fact that they ARE birds) that inhabit sandy, desert areas.

Salameandr
Water, a strange lizard that prefers to be in water. Moves bizarrely when out of water

Trember
??????
Electric/Fire, the Spark Plug Pokémon is an interesting thing with a fiery temper ;)

Trydra
Dragon, a 3 headed hyrda style monster

Koabor
Koalampur
Normal, Koalas basically. One clings to trees with a tough prehensile tail, the other is big and lumbering, labeled the Wandering Pokémon.

I'm pretty certain he said he wasn't going to make any evee evolutions, as they were unoriginal... Dunno, though...

Anyway, I'm liking how this looks... Were you thinking about making this one online-script compatable so that players can trade pokemon online?

It'd be a neat feature, but sort of pointless, I guess, anyway, good work! I'm an older fan of the pokemon games... I was a little disappointed with Gold and Silver, but I started playing through them again (To fill out my Emerald Pokedex... 386, That's nuts!), but I like the ideas.

You kept it small, you kept the material in lines of a decent fangame. I hope this is as good of a play as it has been a read...

If you ever need any help with colouring of the pokemon, I'm a pretty decent artist myself...

Anyway, I'll be checking on this one.

(Just found this, thought it was funny... "The tarnish on Sterling silver is acanthite." Actually is the mineral that builds on sterling silver, apparently...

It's funny too, because I remembered that from highschool, used to be in Jewelery, worked primarily with sterling silver... Hated the stuff, too much nickel in it... Dirty metal. Hated gold too, even dirtier than silver... Titanium is the only metal I really like jewellery made from... Never worked in it, though. Hell, my wedding ring is made of titanium... I'm rambling, it's late, I ought to get some sleep...)
 
wow... this is my first time looking at this topic and... wow... just wow... i always thought the pokemon games were the only good thing with the name "pokemon" on it (no offense pokemon lovers!)... this game looks like it'd kick saphire's ass anyday of the week! Viperno looks almost as kool as Blazekin! i wish you the best of luck in the production of this game...

edit: will this game have the classic "are you a boy or girl?" and the "i can't seem to remember yer name, what is it again?"?
 
This is incredible. I've heard of the whole Topaz deal before from PokeRealm but never heard a whisper about Acanthite until now. Amazing. Keep up the solid, good work. I can't wait to try this game out.
