Ice Cream Sand Witch

I forgot to mention, but it may also be worth noting that in every city/town/place that has a Gym Leader, one of the TVs in that city/town/place has an interview with that leader. Jim's interview is in one of the hotel rooms. Specifically, the room to the right of the player's room. @steamdevelopment Ep 3 has been re-uploaded with the Fletchinder issue fixed; the link in the OP leads to the re-upload

An NPC in the Battle Mall sells them. There's also one in a rock in Halloween Hideout. (sorry for double post, I don't know how to edit quotes into posts)

You'll meet Jim later on during episode 3 content, where you'll find out more about him. Every gym leader and Elite Four will appear outside their gym/the league at some point in the game. With some this happens before battling them, and with some this happens after. (there are two as of ep 3 who haven't yet had an appearance outside their gym battle, and some who've already had outside appearances who will appear more in future episodes)

Scyther can be found in Tinder Forest. There's a notepad file in the game folder called "obtainablepokemon" that lists the locations of every Pokemon that's available outside the starter event.

This NPC at Bolaii Beach sells all the evolution stones: There's also a Water Stone available from a specific sidequest where you interact with Aliora City's fountain and get the Fountain Pen, then bring it to the little girl in Ciansoa City who says "I'm looking for a fountain pen!" She'll give you a Water Stone in exchange for the fountain pen. As for Fletchinder, looking at pokemon.txt in the PBS files, it seems like Talonflame isn't listed as its evolution for some reason...I've fixed that and am in the process of re-uploading now.

No, there's no level cap.

As of Essentials v16.2 I believe several moves of the same type share an animation. Either way they're getting replaced with Reborn's custom animations later.

Snivy was never intended for ep 3. The Pheromosa event isn't ready since SPB doesn't have Internet back yet. It'll probably be in a re-upload or added retroactively in ep 4.

Episode 3 is now out! Three more gyms are added, so the game now goes up to the 10th gym. Additionally: CHANGES AND UPDATES: -Bunnelby Burrows is now a Mystery Dungeon. -There are now NPCs who can give you a specific item in return for providing ingredients. Currently there are two: one in Cianosa Cafe who can make Berry Juice, and one in Olidroll's Candy Shop who can make Rare Candy -Gen 7 Pokemon have been added to the game. There's a notepad file called "gen7movesandabilities" in the download folder that lists which new moves and abilities are currently in the game and functional. -Pokemon obtainability list and marble location list have been updated for episode 3. I also added a TM location list. -False Fortunes sidequest continues in episode 3, with one more doable. The newest one is in episode 3 content. There will be re-uploads of episode 3 in the future. Some things I want to try doing include adding a randomizer mode and putting in Reborn's new move animations. Additionally, Palletite mentioned wanting to improve on some sprites like Felicia and Crolea in the future. There will also of course be Legend Mode, but SPB does not have Internet back yet, so I can't say when that is. My last contact with her was on Saturday (it was a 1 hour free Internet trial). I hope you enjoy the episode

I once had a dream that Nova had been my caretaker since I was born, but I started to pick up on odd mannerisms and I let her know. She slowly started to show a more twisted side of herself before trapping me in a castle dungeon. She still fed me cake every day, though. I somehow ended up in a boss gauntlet of 100 battles (physical fights, not Pokemon battles) and Nova was every 10th. Every time she'd get a few new attacks. My weapon was balloons shaped like small dogs/pickles. At the end she had a way to take one of my balloons for herself when it popped. Also she was extremely small and floated, and she said she was 60 years old.

Plot twist: the cat is the one who made this thread? . o .

Does it eat food? If so that narrows it down a lot, since we know it can't be a species of furniture, musical instrument, phone, tv show, book, video game, rock, light bulb, etc.

Crescent does have some mom-like qualities towards the player, like the "How many times do I have to tell you not to get involved with these people" speeches and telling Nancy she wants to see us smile. But the four lights of the light prophecy were "not born of man", so I think it's more likely dolls like Nancy can have kids. Unless Crescent isn't human herself, or man in the prophecy can literally mean male and not just human and we don't have a father. Otherwise I think Crescent is the mom friend rather than being our mom. EDIT: I just realized all this assumes we're part of the light prophecy to begin with. Maybe we're not . o .

South of Aliora City. Bolaii Beach is where the 5th gym is.

RPG Maker -> New Project -> Name it Reborn -> the project goes to the Documents folder on PC -> copy over all the folders and files from the Reborn folder into the new one in Documents including the PBS folder.

If you got the archives key and read the secret diary, you would've gotten an extra choice where she wouldn't have.

That's a neat perspective. I actually forgot to take into account Eve and Zero having friendship evolutions even though I did so for Noel :x There are people who prefer non-human animals to other people, so Zero could be like that. Maybe he has not a good history with people, while Umbreon was his first friend. Whereas Eve's biggest priority is her sister, so while she treats her Pokemon well, everything she does is ultimately for Lumi.

There are a few NPCs throughout the games that have said there are no good or bad Pokemon, only good and bad trainers. I also personally don't consider the Pokedex a legitimate source of information. There are some entries that contradict each other. For example a lot of Slugma's entries mention that it never sleeps because if it stopped moving its body would cool and harden. While Emerald's entry mentions that it sleeps near magma. And Magcargo's entries say it's 10,000 times hotter than the sun.

(based on their personality and things they've said) Characters who I think care about their Pokemon as friends/partners: Cain, Victoria, Julia, Corey before all the bad stuff happened to him, Shelly, Kiki, Radomus, Luna, Adrienn, Amaria, Hardy, Taka, Lumi, Anna, Laura, Bennett, Cal in the present, Arclight Fern to an extent. Ame on tumblr replied to an ask about how Fern treats his Pokemon, and she said she imagines he would play favorites, as in ones that do well would be used more in battles, but that he wouldn't abuse them if they lost. Characters who I think use Pokemon as a means to achieve their goals: Corey after the bad stuff happened, Titania, Saphira, Lin, Solaris, Sirius, Eve, Zero, Sigmund, Cal when he was just trying to prove himself to his brother, Blake P.S. I still think it's kind of jarring seeing Titania swing her Aegislash against a wall. Ones I'm not sure of: -Florinia. I think before she tried to purge her emotions, she probably cared. Now it's kind of hard to say, but I imagine bonds became secondary to things like strategy. Also, the real person who was Florinia in the online league wasn't even interested in Pokemon and was only there because of her friends (Julia, Amaria, Titania), although I'm not sure if that's ever going to carry over into the game. -Shade. Anna says he's nice, so that's promising, but we don't really know much about him. -Aya. She uses Cain's Pokemon that he left behind, so it's unclear if she was a trainer before then, and we don't have any indication of how she treats them. Based on her personality I'd say neutral at best, and at worst has some hard feelings from being reminded of Cain from them. (although in Agate Cain and Aya did talk out their issues somewhat) -Serra. She's a shell of her former self, so we haven't seen much of a personality from her. Considering she gave up her modeling career for Bennett and took in Luna, I'd like to think she does care for them. -Noel. He doesn't really express emotion so it's hard to tell, but I'd like to think he does since he has a Clefable, and Cleffa evolves into Clefairy through happiness. Although evolved forms of baby Pokemon like Pikachu and Clefairy can be found in the wild in Pokemon games, seeing as he has a Cleffa doll I think it's more likely he raised it from a Cleffa. -Samson. I think as of right now he's the least developed character in Reborn, and at least to me doesn't seem to have much of a defined personality. -Charlotte. -Terra. She could probably create hacked Pokemon. -Ciel. Based on her personality I'd think she does, but like Samson she hasn't had much screen time. -El. While he did use Ditto as a means of achieving a goal (turning people against Radomus), I imagine he might consider Pokemon as Arceus's creations and thus consider it wrong to mistreat them. -Heather

Since episode 3 will be coming out soon, I'd rather wait until then and have people see for themselves. I will say that the final leader of episode 3 is a familiar face and/or name, and that leader's sprite is currently being worked on.

There's not a nature changer yet, and there's no level cap. Sandy mostly got the gym order right, but the fifth leader is Water instead of Ground or Ice.

Cellia has a trainer emporium that sells all the evolution stones and items. First she's at Cellia Docks where you need to talk to her, then go to her shop in Central Cellia and defeat the Black Foxes. EDIT: I forgot, after that you have to go to the lost and found to start the part of the quest to get her stock back. Then you can buy from her.

I recently found a fangame called Pokemon Apex, which I think is really cool. I'm not finished with it yet, but I'm far enough in to describe it I think. Downloading it is a little different than most Essentials fangames. You need to download the Apex Launcher, which is similar to Uranium's patcher in that it finds and downloads the latest release of the game. After it downloads you can either play it from the game folder on your computer or launch it from the Apex Launcher. Currently it's in Build 5. It goes up to an area called Amon Desert. Although you can find info about the game from the link, I want to talk about it myself too and mention what's in the game and what I like about it. I'll try to be as brief as possible with the story to avoid spoiling too much. One thing the creator mentions about the game is that you'll need to think and not just power your way through battles. I've found this to mostly be true so far for me. The battle I struggled with the most was with a trainer that used Duskull, Shuppet, and Gastly, the first and last of which had Night Shade. These Pokemon were level 20, which is the same as my team since that's the first level cap. At around ~60 HP, it was definitely a struggle to KO Duskull before it KO'd one of my Pokemon. I think I won because it hurt itself from confusion. (Gastly went down quick from Confusion, due to being weak to the move and not having very good defenses) With Apex's level cap, Pokemon stop gaining EXP when you reach it. The starters for the game are Croagunk, Baltoy, and Cacnea. I haven't run into a Pokemon Center yet and I'm not sure they exist. There are however characters who will heal your Pokemon as well as an inn in the second city where you can sleep on a bed to heal them. About the level cap, it's not raised through badges. There is a league, but it doesn't seem to have Gym Leaders (there is a Champion though), and so far seems to not be relevant yet (at least where I am in the game) since it's only been mentioned by an NPC. I won't reveal how the level cap is raised because it involves story spoilers. To briefly describe the story, you start out in a world based off Earth, where Pokemon don't exist and you're a normal high school student. You spend some time here before running into people from the villain team (not given a name yet at least where I am, but they wear cloaks that completely shroud their bodies) and through some encounters with them you end up in the Pokemon world. This is the prelude, and chapter 1 begins with you waking up in an area called Sagaxis Forest, without knowing where you are or how you got there. Another thing mentioned by the creator is that it rewards people who explore. You can interact with photos, telephones, TVs, sinks, cabinets, trash cans, etc. and your character will have reactions to them. Doing this in the high school will lead to your character talking about things they've done or how the teachers use them. I've also read there are secret caves. On the character, while you can choose your gender and name, you're a speaking protagonist with a set backstory. The graphics use FRLG tilesets, but there also seem to be custom tilesets for some areas too. I don't recognize any songs from the soundtrack, so I'm not sure if they're from a game I haven't played or if they were made by the creator. It has a lot of unique trainer classes, some of which even have different skin tones among them, like the Lolita trainers. Many can be rebattled through the Pokegear and the wild Pokemon are also close in level to them, so earning EXP isn't difficult.

Yeah, that's possible. I linked it because it's most recent news we have on it.
