I thought the fanbase is full of autistic pedos. How come there aren't any "UOOOOOOGGGGHHHH CHILD PUSSY!!!! ToT ToT" romhacks yet? Doesn't even have to be a pornhack, just something with that style of writing.

>>59152412
Because the only place it'd be able to garner an audience without being instabanned is 4chan. To that concept's credit at least, it's guaranteed to never divorce itself from 4chan and have origin remorse like Sage and Quarantine Crystal, you could never EVER push it anywhere else.

>>59152441
Just post your hack on hentai porn websites that allows loli

>>59152412
The game you're imagining has existed since before ToT meant anything, it just runs like shit because it's in an ancient version of Essentials and the creator has been in burnout mode for over half its lifetime probably.

Are modern Gen 3 romhacks dead on arrival these days if they don't have new Pokemon and physical special split?

>>59155197
386 hacks are still common, but PSS is kind of mandatory

>>59155197
You can get away with a limited roster if you're doing an emphasis custom regionals/Megas/convergents/whatever the fuck, a fakemon mix or some gimmick that significantly alters the mons, but yeah PSS is an absolute must-have for Gen 3, it's too "almost modern but not quite" to go without compared to how its absence can be excused in Gen 2 hacks.

It it doesn't have a moe version I don't care.

>>59155197
PSS is basicly mandatory at this point because turns out people who wants to keep pre PSS so gengar and kingler hits like wet noodle with their stab are in minority
i'm kind of interested to see a 1025 full dex hack without PSS (fairy becomes special only) and see how funny/shitshow it is

>>59155397
Personally I like some of the moe designs while I like having 90% of the dex still be regular pokémon. Pretty easy to insert with Hex Maniac assuming it correctly reads the hack.

>>59157027
I seen the bottom left one before. That being said bottom right is the best design of all of them. The others are franken sprites and while bottom right probably is too its shading is well done and she looks like she'd be part of an actual pokemon game. That alone makes it sexo. The reason this series even has sexo is the character design has always been on point. You capture gamefreak's magic you already made a sexy girl by default.

i played it on release. it is one of those games with 20 random pokemon on every route and it makes no sense. routes in the start of the game are designed well and creative but midgame and on they are literal straight hallways. victory road is a straight hallway. the music is dogshit. ultimately it was pretty decent but a lot of details and gameplay choices that couldve made it a lot better ended up holding it back. i recommend playing it because it does look good and is a full fledged adventure. i dont care about the trans shit at all but the objective truth is there are about 5 trans flags in the game, all small and 4 are completely missable. didnt impact the game at all, it was a 5/10 with or without them

Emerald Seaglass was just okay. Decent way to revisit Emerald despite its bugs, the fact that it was never actually finished, and the issues with its art style. I don't think I care to do any of the post-game battle frontier or catching legendaries.

Dunno what to play now, though.

>>59159908
Play Pokemon Tectonic like I am. It's a very odd experience, so even if you end up not liking it it's at least interesting. It's probably right around the limit of how different something can be from base Pokemon and still BE Pokemon rather than something else, at least imho.

>>59159461
They were super coping about their anti-speed up here anyway despite the fact that vp and 4chan was their main playerbase and support and we all told them it was a retarded idea. They tried to cope (lol) hard about this and do damage control even having some PR agent/shill here.
I suspect its the same team and people working on the Clover 2.0 or whatever the fuck number version it is on the decomps as Clover likewise wanted to add an anti-speedup that would kill your game cause "We want people to listen to our custom music as we worked hard on it! :("

I may be an anomaly, since I admittedly don't play the mainline games, but this game genuinely represents everything I wish Pokemon games were: varied, open, with minimal story.
And most importantly it has a strong focus on actually making battles and team building fun rather than trying to tell a story nobody wants to hear or trying to see how much you can torture the player with copypasted Smogon builds
It's the first time I feel compelled to finish the dex, and it's the first time I'm scared to play a game too much since I know it'll be over at some point and I'll have to go back to the mediocre shit that's around

Alright lads.
I've modified PureRGB. Nothing too fancy.
I entirely changed wild distribution, rebalanced moves (and nerfed Pure's SCREECH into the ground). I added a caught indicator in battle, a Move Reminder, a grandpa who gives out free casino coins (if you show him some Pokemon), unique party sprites, unique overworld sprites, the ability to use HMs from the overworld, and some other stuff. Stuff like revamping the Champ Arena to use teams from Pokemon Stadium (mostly) and I also added an endgame fight against Blue (lvl 100 team with a para-confuse strat. No legendaries).

List of my tweaks: github.com/RandomUsername404/pureRGBTweaked/documentation/tweaked_features_only.md

I'm burned out. I've run around in debug mode a bunch but haven't tried to do a proper playthrough yet.

I've done this mostly for me but if anyone else is interested:

Be a rebel, don't put in the PSS but put in an item like the Swirly Glasses from Pokemon Elite Redux, which is an item that swaps a Pokemon's offensive stats. Put them on Gengar and now Ghost and Poison are both using its highest stat. Hell get crazy with it, do one that only affects contact or non contact moves and let people mix and match a moveset. Get an Alakazam, use the item to swap its contact moves to special and now you get psychic and the elemental punches again. It's cool, it's clever, it makes people care about held items other than six leftovers on all Pokemon and it makes your romhack stand out.

>>59155197
I'd play one that doesn't have the split just because of how rare it is. There is no such thing as a "mandatory" feature. Just do what you think is fun.

Guys I can't find a suitable thread for my question. and I don't wanna start a thread for 3 replies, so I'm asking here, because it's close enough. What's the best game on the DS outside of HG/SS? Obviously HG/SS is the best of all time, followed by Emerald and FR/LG, but what's OBJECTIVELY the best out of the remaining games on the DS? Diamond and Pearl? Platinum? Black and White? 2? I'm finishing Emerald and I need to optimize my free time with the best next game I haven't played.

>>59161542
But overall I'm thinking it's Platinum and who knows maybe there's a Platinum romhack that makes it even better.

>>59160335
It feels really bad to go from Tectonic back to normal Pokemon hacks that don't have the sheer amount of information you can access in it even mid-battle. There's just so many QoL additions, and it still manages to be a pretty decent challenge even with all of it. I'm honestly surprised it's not more popular.

>>59161969
Yeah being able to search abilities and moves for words is super fucking comfy honestly, you just write "sandstorm" and you just see at a glance every single mon you could add to your sand team
Also convenient move relearners in every Pokemon center, no TMs, no grinding levels and ESPECIALLY no IVs/EVs
That team I posted above is brand new, I put it together in 5ish minutes and if it doesn't work I'll just swap things out until it does, no biggie. Fuck wasting 40 minutes breeding/training a new mon while sinking finite resources into it before you even know if it's a good addition to your team, kills all experimentation

>>59152412
>How come there aren't any "UOOOOOOGGGGHHHH CHILD PUSSY!!!! ToT ToT" romhacks yet?
I could name 3. They're not specifically about loli per say, but they are explicit sex and obviously pokemon has loli characters.

4, if Moemon's non-explicit sprite replacement counts, because it IS expressly loli themed, even if they're all modestly dressed gaijinkas.

I had an idea for a Pokemon game set in space but have absolutely zero creative or technical skills.
>Starters are Solrock (Rock/Fire), Lunatone (Rock/Ice), Minior (Rock/Flying)
>Gameplay loop is launching into space to complete missions to eventually send humanity out of the solar system.
>Post-game is meeting Arceus and ascending reality
>Oxygen battle mechanics
>Fire is weaker in space, burn does less DoT, Damp effect
>Ice is stronger in space, frostbite becomes freeze
>Oxygen bar depletes over turns, causes DoT to non-space themed/object mons
>Planets have atmospheres that reverse the buffs towards fire types and ignore the oxygen DoT
>Regional variants for different planets/space
>Alien rip off chapter where you hunt Deoxys through an abandoned spaceship
>Moon chapter where all the NPCs walk backwards
>Side quest where you can reunite the Team Galactic admins after they've been sent across different planets. Reuniting them and turning them in gives you a bigger reward, reuniting them and letting them go free gives you less encounters in the immediate as they war with space pirates.
And no, there would not be a Space type or similar.

Inclement Emerald has been very fun. The type changes and stat buffs are making me consider Pokemon I wouldn’t give a second thought.

I don't even want to image WHY you have some mentally ill schizo's blog saved up, or why you would even bother reading a single word on that page
All I know is that a bunch of gym leaders are mystery-gendered and/or other shades of mental illness, but that's to be expected for fangames. The rest is irrelevant

This would be a bit more involved. You'd basically need to restore engine/gfx/mon_icons.asm, engine/menus/party_menu.asm, engine/menus/start_sub_menus.asm, engine/menus/naming_screen.asm and engine/movie/trade.asm to their vanilla state.

lmao
also also
>Second option: Zinnia and the spineless dipshits who et cetera et cetera – they get removed from the game and the community, and I can finish up my last work on this project I so dearly love. Suddenly, I’m a lot more OK with the game and community being flagrantly and aggressively supportive of queer people, since, y’know, the best support for them is no longer pushing them away from the community so they don’t have to deal with Zinnia. Everyone’s happy (except the people who don’t deserve happiness).

I tried this on the hardest difficulty and I can't take every single gym being a direct hard counter to my team

>>59164712
not sure i'd ever bother with a hard mode in a hack
like having to think more about team comp and moves and even evs and natures is fine but stuff like level caps is a big no-no for me and a lot do that
being able to overlevel to bring your shitmon with you to the end is core to pokemon for me t b h

>>59164712
They aren’t direct hard counters unless you’re coincidentally making a team that’s weak to their speciality or gimmick. Unbound’s difficulty is often mitigated by just how many options you have.

is there any reason why one should even release a mod if it isn't some completely new map? I mod/hack for fun but really there's certainly a berth of these fuckers at this point, triple digits of generic "you can catch new pokemon also maybe there's a new map"

>>59164797
It's easier for someone to get into a hack if they're already familiar with the region.

>>59164797
I figure it's just two different tastes. Sometimes you want a new region to explore, sometimes you just want to run through Kanto or Hoenn for the hundredth time because you know it back to front and don't want to read the mind of the dev to figure out where to go next

Any black and white hack that add version exclusive mons and and make trade evolution normal? Nothing more as I want to experience the game for first time

Fangame communities always end up in the hands of these..... characters, unfortunately. It takes a lot of autism to dedicate such a significant portion of your time towards developing a huge project that will not earn you a single penny, but unfortunately you need to be enough of a narcissist to actually gather a following of equally autistic retards who will help you on your quest.

>>59163645
my game will be all actual pokemon, but that is solely because i am a beginner and want to leave making new mons for later projects.

Bear with an old man here.
I only like the first 3 generations of pokemon in the pokedex (no megas or regional forms too).
What's the furthest from a vanilla enchantment hack I can get with that in mind? I don't mind enchantment QoL hacks but after Polished Crystal (loved it) I need something else.

>>59168679
>What's the furthest from a vanilla enchantment hack I can get with that in mind?
A vanilla enhancement hack.

>>59168682
I see. I was hoping for a cool game that did its best with that pokedex and maybe a new region but I guess I'll gear up for some 3rd generation enchantment hack after they start feeling novel again.

>>59168702
Not gonna lie, you do lock yourself out of every single non-enhancement hack by only wanting the first 386. Nobody's going to put in the effort of making a new region just for them, when you can just fill up Hoenn with gen 1 and 2 pretty easily

>>59168733
I wouldn't mind just a different recipe like open world or combining the 3 regions or whatever but it's understandable that only 386 is not a popular shared taste. Things start feeling very cluttered very fast for me is all.

>>59168679
Most hacks are gonna have at least a few new mons, otherwise it gets boring. Even my personal me-only gen 3 hack has like ~10 custom or post gen 4 mons for flavor.

I like taking mega evos and turning them into jormal evolutions for pokemon lacking them, like absol and sableye

>>59168856
>like absol and sableye
I guess those are cool, but megas were such a hit or miss for me that my instinct is to disregard all of them. And I just can't find myself ever liking the existance of stuff like Magmortar or Rhyperior.
If you are making a personal hack you can do what you like but I think hacks available to the public aim to please many people in general. So most of the time they add everything or end up with everything after people whine.

You guys keep bringing megas I actually liked (plus the idea of them acting as just a regular evo).
There is even pokemon I like from later gens, it's jus that the negatives far outweight the positives for me so that's how I tailored my request for a suggestion.
But I expected that the answer would be that there isn't much, it's ok.

I have planned only half a plot for this.

The current setup is "find the Legendary Birds across the place so that we can do shit to summon Lugia to deal with some threat" but I have not actually thought of what said threat is.

I keep waiting for an update on Clover before starting that inevitable NG+ run where I steamroll everything with the Beast Boost duo legends and Clovenix

>>59171485
Could even be an environmental threat they can prevent.

If it's generally accepted that the hunt for Regis was one of the best parts of RSE then why haven't any hacks used that as inspiration? I've seen hacks tying to add sidequests and mission logs to the game but it would be interesting if more uncommon pokemon were available through a mini quest where you have to actually look for them.

>>59171727
Of all fangames, early Reborn does this the best. It eventually ends up in pretty standard Pokemon territory with tall grass and shit but a large chunk of your early recruits come from various miniquests around the city, since it's so polluted you can't catch much in the water and there's minimal grass to catch stuff in.

>>59171674
better do it now because saves aren't carrying over, 2.0 is essentially a new game at this point

>>59171674
better do it right now because saves aren't carrying over, 2.0's essentially a new game at this point

I think that's what the games kind of tried to do but it faded through time. The early anime as well.
>NPCs could be telling you about how to encounter certain species.
>Fighting type pokemon you can encounter by participating in a physical activity sidequest
>Save a particular species on a mountain from environmental trouble like preventing a landslide.
>Ghost type pokemon you encounter by solving a haunted mystery in the overworld
>Fishing rods expanded by bait type
>Purify a poisoned body of water in the overworld, encounter a certain pokemon
>Restore electric grid, encounter pokemon similar to how Zapdos comes roost in FRLG
>Night/Day/Weather dependent encounters
>Lures/Nets you can set up for bugs and swarms you can get info from
>Headbutt trees/Hidden grottos
All of these shouldn't be "handholdy" though. Just let the player explore, interact and change the world and have species appear as consequences. For mythicals/legendaries you can make things more mysterious and otherwordly and filled with riddles like the Unknown, interacting with ruins etc.

Bros I tried the BW2 redux whatever romhack and it was trash. The only thing good about it was some jester looking mf gifting me a FREE bulbagod/squirtgod/charmangod. The hack doesn't even work with the DSi enhancements. I just want the Gen IV/V aesthetics with pokemon from earlier gens too. HG/SS is so perfect. If only we could have something similar but in the BW2 engine. The game is the prettiest in Gen V.

>>59172237
>researcher successfully bred a male kangaskhan baby and needs you to learn how to evolve it.
This is funny.
You can get a lot of ideas just from pokemon interacting with each other. Like having to have your first pokemon be something specific to encounter something else. This can work for rival pokemon like Seviper/Zangoose or male/female pairs. It extends to weird symbiotic pokedex entries like Shellder and Slowpokes too.

is the unbound dev working on anything?

A bunch of games do it, but it's a LOT of work to implement for a single mon, which is why most devs only really do it for some legendaries and that's it
But I think devs generally want to fit as many mons into their game as possible because of muh "ALL GENS INCLUDED" gimmick, which ultimately forces them to have as many generic routes as possible so they can shove 15+ different species in each one and call it a day

Every species is assigned 1 to 4 tribal tags, and once you have at least 5 mons with the same tag in one team you get a passive bonus that applies to the whole team
Big boy Eevee has the "Friends to all" ability, which means he counts as part of every tribe, and thus that whole team gets the effects of all the tribes in the game: these range from a full 30% to Def. or Sp. Def. to taking a lot less damage from all sources to a lot of damage boosts, so having all 22 of them enabled turns really fucking stupid

Huh I guess so, ye. That eye looked unnaturally huge, especially with the DP sprite in mind

I only try to perfect stuff that seems doable, which has only been the 3rd and 5th gyms so far
But I usually make sure I clear all regular trainers for le spooky egg obviously

how does heart and soul stack up vs crystal redux?

>>59171727
Pokemon Gaia has quite a few of these. It's also one of the few Rom Hacks that has plenty of hidden items so walking around and sniffing every tree stump, rock and weird spot can give you some mildly cool freebies.

>>59173977
Not terribly familiar with redux (even though I think I played it). Heart and soul is basically gold and silver ported to gen3. It's pretty complete that it even has Kanto done and many options are toggle-able. The only weak point for me was the limited gen3 movesets and abilities that I missed for some pokemon even with the P/S split there. It doesn't try to modernize much there.

I think the double trouble 6v10 was gym 5 (doubles are kinda impossible to perfect)

>it's ALWAYS either reborn (mid) or decimation (unfinished garbage)
I should stop getting my hopes up.

>>59174446
Reborn is far from mid. The volume of content, attention to detail, willingness to punch you in the face without saying sorry make it one of the best ever. It just has some very low lows, like every time a character (who isn't perfect Pokegoddess Lin) starts talking

knower. i love all the tumblr nonsense though because it makes the story as difficult to stomach as the game lmfao

emerald rogue is nice
