  1. Oh, don't you guys even worry. I'll be the first to express my dissatisfaction with the gym leaders of the main series games; no way I'm going to make the same mistake.
  2. ...Actually, not that one, no. That one is freezing in 10.5?
  3. Well, in XY Inkay appeared on high mountain cliffs; not in the water at all. It's a floating Pokemon and seems to like high places. It's not even a water type. So why would it be there?
  4. The language the game uses is Ruby RGSS through RPG Maker XP. If you're determined to learn, I suggest picking that up, because that's currently where the game needs the most work.
  5. This is a very, very old topic that people keep reviving for some reason I have not updated it to have Fairy type yet, but I intend to. It's just not a priority.
  6. I'm sure it would be, both long/intensive and really cool. I was pretty excited for Thresh because when I first started playing the game-- probably like most people-- I kept thinking of champion concepts and one of the things I want to see was a chain-themed support character. And then like a year and a half later Thresh happened~
  7. The general Game Design position. I'd love to work on champion reworks or something like that.
  8. Next summer I'll be out of school, so I won't qualify. I didn't actually include anything art-related in my portfolio, since the only remotely impressive thing I've done was hand-drawing that huge map for Reborn, and it's not like I'm applying for an art position. >< Even so, that does reassure me a bit, so thanks~ And yeah, "Until We Bleed" is like, my favorite song ever. That NPC rotates songs with each section of the story though. Cuz wynaut. I'm glad someone caught that reference~
  9. Haha, thanks. Reborn isn't the only game listed on my resume (I been designing games since I was like 8 (not like I would include all of those though...)), but I did try and highlight its popularity/success. In all, I feel pretty confident about my application, but the sheer volume of competition naturally has me a bit nervous.
  10. Oh, well, I was just kidding in the first place, but I didn't mean for skins. I'm applying for the summer internship program
  11. Uh, no, probably not; that's not an error, it's a 'feature' that was added in the newest script update. I'm personally not a huge fan of it either but removing it would likely break more things than it would solve 16 isn't the last episode, that's just as far as I can say for length right now
  12. Yeah, that event is less important for existing save files, but for new save files that's the new scraggy event
  13. You're right. Although I didn't plan it this way, we've been getting two-parters for a while. 6/7 kind of became a two part story in Apophyll, 8/9 became a two-part thing in chrysolia, and 10/11 is our two-part exploration of the aventurine region. In all of these cases, the first episode took much longer to produce than the second. In the latter two, the second half will be much shorter than the first, because both of those were originally designed as one episode, and then split in half later. 11 will be short, but that means faster to make. As for areas that need to be drawn from the ground up, yeah, there are a few more of those, but they probably won't be as involved as making the ruins was. I can give a rough estimate of how long the upcoming episodes are going to take (relative to each other) 11 is short and quick 12 is going to take a while 13 ...might be kind of long, depends how long it takes me to make some effects for scenes here 14 will take even longer than 12 15 should be pretty quick 16 is going to take for fucking fuckity fuck ever spoilers.
  14. Augefhdcjhx. I knew this day would come. So here's the thing, 6th gen sprites aren't included with Essentials because as of now there aren't really any good 6th free-use sprites. Smogon/Showdown are making their own, and you can ask them for permission to use theirs with credit. However, they denied us when we asked, and I can't promise that they won't deny other games. There are actually a number of decent quality front sprites out there now that are free use, the most popular of which is surely Noscium's set. However, at least when I last checked, the only decent back sprites floating around belong to Smogon (and even those leave a lot to be desired). However, even those are 5th gen styled (as are Reborn's). If you want to use 4th gen styled back sprites for 6th gen, there's a topic on Pokecommunity where people are creating them. I personally wouldn't use those, however, because I do not recall being impressed with their quality when I last saw them (perhaps they've been bettered, since). Anyway, that brings us to Reborn. Not to toot our own horn or anything, but assuming you're okay with 5th gen styled back sprites, Reborn probably has the highest quality sprites out there (Smogon will probably end up better once they finish, but a lot of their stuff is in a rough state right now). I've gone over every single one of them myself, and while I'm not 100% satisfied with everything, they are better than anything else I've seen. You can find them in the 10.5 Download, but you'll be on your own for shinies. HOWEVER, usage of these comes with two caveats. Firstly, you have a long list of spriters that need to be credited for using these. I'll post it here, but it's also in the 10.5 Readme. I was pretty diligent about only using work from artists who granted permission-to-use as long as they receive credit. There is one exception, however, which is the second issue. Our Greninja front-sprite is made by a different spriter who specifically requests that s/he be asked for permission to use it. Xe granted it to us, but that sprite isn't mine to give away. You can contact them on deviantart under the name Vale98PM or find a different Greninja front sprite. Here's the list of spriters to credit if you use ours. + Whatever you decide to do about Greninja.

    Miner's Guide

    You hang onto those and you hang onto them good. I have a suspicion that we're about to see a lot of people asking where to get more of those >>
  16. I'm pretty sure even Morello (maybe someone else of similar status) said that Ashe was a situational pick and that they were fine with that
  17. 6th Gen Pokemon won't be able to learn TMs because the data tables for them weren't updated when they were reported as having been done. I went through and finished them myself when I realized that, so TMs will work for them with E11
  18. To my knowledge the HP problem has been resolved entirely. Is this not so?
  19. yeahifixedthatfor11 whoops happybirthday
  20. If you got Ally Switch, it'll become Steel Wing. I think that's the only one that changed though. But yes, if you want other TMs you can go back and get them; I reset anything that was new or moved. So you might end up with a lot of duplicate TMs but you'll have a few things you didn't have before
  21. Looks like I forgot to do this. It'll be done for 11 then
