What is the plan for post-league game?

[Revengercm]

I have some doubts.

Is the league going to be 4 elite members and one champion? Are they all lvl 100?

After the league, I know there is a club but is that the only thing to look for after beating the league?

Maybe a Mt.Battle like the ones on gamecube (XD and Colosseum).

Idk. Thoughts?

Another, smaller region to explore would be really cool.

[Tartar]

It's already been confirmed what the postgame content will be.

- All Legendary Pokemon will be available

- Every single Gym Leader will have a new "EX" mode where you can challange the leader again, but this time all their Pokemon will be level 100 and they'll have 7 Pokemon.

There will probably be other things, but these are the things I've heard Ame mention so far. And we already know that Reborn has an Elite 8, it'll probably be part of the finale of the game.

Yeah, there will be Leader rematches and lots of Legendary hunting.

(Rejuvenation has an Elite 8, not Reborn)

erm will we be allowed a 7th mon after we win the league as well? or will that be restricted to the leaders?

also will the league be a do once only thing?

[lastdragon]

7 Pokemon? How would that even work? You know what, I don't doubt it

[YoshiofRedemption]

Where was the 'Gym Leaders will have 7 Pokemon after beating the League' thing? I've never heard that until I read this thread.

[TheJawsOfDeath]

Never heard of it either. What's confirmed is (to my knowledge at least)

- Gym Leader Rematches

- A little place where Gen 7 Pokemon will be

- All Legendaries will be set around Reborn

It was during one of the interviews Ame did a few years back, which are on Youtube.

[mde2001]

I don't think that she said that, although it has been a while since I watched those interviews.

The gym leaders could easily use their EX teams from Reborn league, which from what I've seen were made challenging by having legendary and uber pokemon rather than by adding an extra one.

And I severely doubt the player will get a 7th pokemon.

[Cobalt996]

The "7th Pokemon" may have originated from the player being able to add a Pokemon to their rotation after the successful completion of the old Reborn league, so as to make fighting in the X-League a tad more fair. I have seen no such mention of a similar application to the Reborn game leaders' teams, though it probably wouldn't be that hard to change the cap on opposing Pokemon.

Alola Region for Pokemon Reborn confirmed? I mean, Alola is small due to being islands... Just kidding. It might not be Alola, but I would be up for a Alola-themed part of Reborn that has the 7th gen Pokemon.

[enu]

Rematches against all gym leaders at lvl 100 - yes please! But giving them a 7th pokemon doesn't seem right. I believe they can be challenging enough even without such measures.

[Samtale]

I don't remember if I remember this correctly but I think I remember in the rematches the gym leaders have 1 legendary don't know how that would work with there not being a poison legendary yet though.

Let's clear things up here

Literally none of the above is confirmed.

Legendaries are more than likely a thing for post game (almost assuredly mostly because one of our goals is to make every pokémon catchable and that means legendaries would probably end in post game due to their sheer strenghts)

"- A little place where Gen 7 Pokemon will be"

This is 100% not true. If Gen 7th is implemented, there's no predetermined place for its pokémon to appear. It most certainly won't be in one specific spot (Unless it does end in post game, though at that point they may instead be added retroactively to different parts of the game, who knows) and above all, it's not a confirmed thing that gen 7 will be in Reborn to begin with.

7th pokémon -> Not gonna happen

Speculation is fine.

But don't say anything is "confirmed" until post game actually rolls around. Nothing is "confirmed". This is a personal project with a volunteer staff. Things may or may not be implemented simply because we did or didn't feel like doing them. Saying something is "confirmed" adds peer pressure to the features that the game has to have and gives what should be volunteer work for helping's sake somewhat of a bittersweet aftertaste.

[Ice Cream Sand Witch]

it's not a confirmed thing that gen 7 will be in Reborn to begin with.

I remember Ame saying in the E16 status thread that Gen 7 will be put in after the last episode of Reborn.

From another thread:

I've seen the bloody conversation pop up enough times I feel like it could go into the FAQ because it's gonna get asked a thousand more after every little announcement. You shouldn't ask if Ame is going to add Gen VII into Reborn before asking: is this even possible? Anybody know the answer to that? Can anyone even tell me all the Pokemon, abilities, and changes added to Gen VII. Anybody? Anybody? That's my point. It's going to take a very, very long while before fan games can even consider adding Gen VII Pokemon into their games as it takes time. We still know practically nothing about it as it stands.

Basically this, with the addition that in truth it boils down to if my team will have the time to do it.

Honestly, I'm fairly confident that I can implement anything new that comes in the new generation as long as it is within RPG Maker XP's capabilities, however, there are other, more important implementations and Gen 7 as it stands is not even within our to-do list, so when I say it's a huge maybe, then I mean that it's a huge, colorful, maybe.

[Felicity]

But I mean, it's confirmed we'll get to party with kawaii anime bois and grills.

I think you're confused. Almost nothing you said in that post is true.

ESPECIALLY the 7th Pokémon and Elite 8 parts.

[Ice Cream Sand Witch]

From another thread:

Oh, okay. I hadn't seen the thread where those posts are from.

[Autumn Rain]

Yeah, the interview video still exists if anyone's interested:

From 10:00 to 11:20, I think this is where we misunderstood.

[Bessi]

is there even a slim chance that there is going to be a pokemon world tournament here in reborn in the post-game?would be a feature that most of all wold be exited.a feature when we fight all gym leaders of every region,e4,champions,bosses,special traines(Red,N etc.)(in their field)like in pokemon b2w2.but different from that we should defeat all of them and in the .i dont know what are the plans of the creators,but that would be an good idea.yeah caching all the legendaries would be a good idea but it seems like not much material for the post-game.

That was just a suggestion!!! want to know what you guys think.

I don't think that will happen, bro.

[Dragon116]

I know from my reading of the "Ask us anything" thread and the speculation thread that Ame has said Gen 7 will likely be left to community development once the game is done. Otherwise that would mean delaying Reborn so that Ame could collect sprites, collect cries, update pokedex, update movepools, update stats, update atttacks, update items, update abilities, update leaders, rebalance leaders, add in the gen 7 to areas in reborn and rebalance the difficulty to account for those.

Here's that quote from post #255 of http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19031&page=13

This is Ame's co-worker typing. I got into the office today and found her writhing on the ground. She keeps twitching and saying "Gen 7" all over. Do you know what this means?? Is this a new street drug? Should I call the police?????

To elaborate more seriously on the gen 7 stuff, I will probably leave the bulk of the data work to the users like I did with Gen 6. Then we have some advantages now that we didn't during the Gen 5>6 transition such as that we are much more up-to-date on the whole (remember until E15 there was still a lot of 4th gen content that hadn't been implemented), and the fact that we have a scripting team. Little Lewis doesn't really maintain a presence in the community but he is still with us on implementation (he's polishing up online features right now!!) and could probably take care of any scripting stuff that I can't (and I'm much more comfortable with that than I was when Gen 6 hit too).

As for sprites, I'd probably just bite the bullet and kick donation incentives so we could use Smogon's this time because while I (hope I've proven by now that I certainly) can make our own, it's frankly not worth the time especially when they already undertake the project quite well.

Big things would be availability + changes in field effects. We'd have to see another x.5 episode and pad out development time and just ugggh.

At the time of its release, I probably enjoyed Crystal the most. It felt mystical to me, in a few different ways (I had fun figuring out the Unown; rumors about getting to the Orange Islands, etc)

To really give you the best answer to a question like this, I figured I should ask the big guy himself. Here's what he said:

"..."

Well, I think that about says it all! I feel elucidated. Moving on!

If so, not deliberately.

Although I'll tell you what, we do live across from some kind of crone... She literally called the city on us and had us fined for like a thousand dollars because our grass was too high............. she snuck into her neighbors house and hid chocolate in places so that they would get an ant problem. like??????

Foamy is correct about Cain, he's pan.

Tania is probably ace.

Heh. There's a few reasons, but the main one I'm not going to say until the game is finished and I do my LP of it, and the other will have to wait until y'all see her gym.

But another one I can talk about, is back from the league days. Organizing 17 people to all be on 20 hours a week (when you're not paying them) is hard. Like really hard. My solution to this was the line-host system. Leader access was gated by a line host who kept records, refereed, directed traffic, and so on. Another lesser-known duty of line hosts was to operate as backups if a leader was missing. That included battling and acting as them. But that was how I made sure that even if the actor in question couldn't make it, that the challengers could still get their battles.

So, there were a handful of times I had to act for all of them over the months. Titania in particular stood out back then, because she was always by far and away the hardest for me to write for. I think it's because my personality back then was the polar opposite of hers. I usually avoided confrontation like the plague, for instance, whereas she was brutally honest at all times. It took me a little while to get into that mindset, and even then it was still challenging, but once I did I started sort of looking up to her. By now I've learned a lot from her, but, there's always more.
