BravoDelta Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) so this is what i've been working on for the past few days, and having finished it from scratch i am actually super proud of how well it came out as for what it's for, well, you're free to guess, but it's not like i'll say if you get it right. ^~^ If I had to take a wild guess, it's the enemy battle base to accompany Anna's starry field? The image is 256 px wide and so are all the other "enemybase" files in the appropriate graphics folder of the game. Ame hinted a while ago that the revamped Meteor Mash animation background may double as a battlefield background. I suspect the rock above will replace "enemybaseEliteD.png" in the graphics folder.

Drymus Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Maybe a bunch of them are platforms that need to be jumped over in one of the maps behind the mystery doors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an interesting guess, but I took a look at the battlebases and compared them to the rock and this rock doesn't seem like it would fit. It seems too vertically large for it to be a battlebase, even if you cut all but the top side of it off.

Hymdall Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 There's a few things it could be other than heralding our doom, as I said before. Battle base is a decent guess but the image looks a bit off to me personally, for reasons mentioned above. As a side note, it also just...looks weird when a Trainer is standing on it. My main guesses are as follows: Some part of a field effect backround, or a part of an actual cutscene a la Emerald's descent of Rayquaza to stop Kyogre and Groudon's clash. Other than that, I've got absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead account Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Yep. That looks just as weird as I imagined it would. The rock is simply too big for it to be a(decent-looking) battlebase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wytch_doctr Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Deoxys first stage - Rock form O.P I can imagine his tentacles just creeping out of the holes in the rocks. And then a Mega-Rayquaza appears from outta nowhere, ridden by none other than Techie Jonathan. Edited October 26, 2015 by wytch_doctr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJS Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Judging by it looking like a meteor fragment/stage of some kind, and by the teaser dialogue which I'm presuming to be Lin speaking; I'm guessing it's the battlefield where we fight Lin, the leader of Team Meteor. A man can hope! Edited October 27, 2015 by LJS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wytch_doctr Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I hope they add a few good TM's cause some of my favorite pokemons move pool sucks It's mostly because of the fact that the game needs to be balanced. Anyways, I heard that Shadow Ball is 100% gonna be in E16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foamy Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 No. Quaza just needs to learn Dragon Ascent to mega evolve. It's the only pokemon that mega evolve with a move. ...Yes, after it's ingested enough meteorites to simulate the energy of a Mega Stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
star-kin Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Rayquaza has to learn Dragon Ascent to mega evolve, yes. Regardless if it has ingested enough meteorites or whatever, as the organ with-a-power-equivalent-to-a-mega-stone in Rayquaza's body is always filled with enough energy to enable mega evolution. in game, that is. think of it like this: Dragon Ascent is its mega stone. the ACTUAL mega stone is the organ which is powered by Rayquaza consuming meteorites while flying and stuff, but in game we dont get to see it eat meteorites bc aint no one got time fo dat. so basically, this...THING Ame created for E16 has nothing to do with Rayquaza or it's mega-evolution. but we don't know for sure, huh?

Bazaro Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Given the size and shading of the... rock... I'm almost certain it's a battle platform. It looks big, but most of it is covered up by your Pokemon's HP bar anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiharo Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 no i thought it can go mega anyway so if you get rayquaza it can go mega anyway without dragon ascent I'm talking about the actual game itself. Are you on the same page as me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developers Marcello Posted October 27, 2015 Developers Share Posted October 27, 2015 Y'know, I see people saying it'd look weird as a battle base and I'm sitting here thinking that the example screenshot posted looks really awesome. Honestly, I think the blank background makes it even better, it'd be interesting to see, if it is the case, what battlebase the playe would get alongside it.

TRHStatement Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Looking at the battlebase makes me laugh. It looks too awkward for a battle stage to me. Probably because it's not on the MC's side. Still think that it's Arceus body that was brought in the meteorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks big, but most of it is covered up by your Pokemon's HP bar anyways. The rock is going much farther under where the hp bar is than it should be. The fact that it's even going under the screen is the problem. None of the other battle bases are this big. and they are all flat circles(except the Circus battlebase, that one is a square because of the unique field, but it's still a flat surface with a proper shape). This base is giant, is at a weird angle, and looks nothing like the other battlebases. Wonder what's up with all the holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I feel like it would be a battle base if it didn't seem so different and so awkward from the other battle bases... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdleThoughts Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 What if it is a battle-base, but it is reserved for a potential battle against a legendary, which would be more accommodating of such a large sprite. I can't think of way to justify this in the overworld, as its showcased in a top down view and would strange if an object was angled with the top and front side visible in this manner, and it's not like we're treated to any dynamic camera angles which can justify its presence. That reserves it for being used in the battle scene. Where it is also angled in a BIT of a strange way, but ultimately faces us like other platforms. This wouldn't be our first battle against a legendary either. We've already battled an Arceus (okay fine ditto) and Mewtwo in previous episodes. I wouldn't find it out of place if we find ourselves battling another legendary next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dead account Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I don't think that image is helping your case at all, dude. In fact, I think it just helps prove that this rock doesn't look good as a battle base. It looks ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
