Administrators Amethyst Posted April 2, 2012 Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2012 So I like how I'm totally stealing Patrick's thunder. I've started putting this together already- a game based on Reborn. I'm going to use this topic to gather input and stuff, and possibly post occasional screens as I progress. Like so. But probably mainly input. For instance, I have one very key dilemma: I for sure want to include all Reborn Leaders to date. However, as we know, there has been more than one leader for many of the types. Should I include multiple badges of some types (this would result in 28 total badges) Or should I choose one of our leaders for each type and allocate the others to other parts of the story (would result in 17 battles, but less importance for the characters not chosen to be official leaders)? Or some other way of balancing them that you have an idea for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Do the default 17. Elite 8. Champion be Ame/Ikaru/Nyu. Have the remaining leaders be super hard monotype battles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashew Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I say each gym be a duo gym. two parts of a badge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Mix them up, some new some old. Have the rest fill in as an Elite 4, or split Reborn into two parts of a region, and split the leaders equally. Once you've achieved all said badges you can proceed to the E4 and whatnot. Make sure to include more antagonists to make it interesting, Team Meteor and some others so they clash from time to time too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fush Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 For the less important characters, you could put some sort of escort quest system with them like Game Freak did in 4th gen (but not as annoying... escorting Mira out of Wayward Cave was a nightmare...).

Patrick Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Hey so long as its getting done i don't care who does it haha, I've been working on my own though and its seems like you have made more progress than I have which is cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted April 2, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2012 What have you done already Patrick? I may be able to incorporate it. And I like how I just got six completely different ideas. Okay, let's see: 17 leaders + 8 elite + champ = 26 + 2 extraneous battles Elite 8 seems a little overkill to me... But, if we stick to Elite 4 + 17 + champ then that leaves...6 battles unaccounted for, that might still might be okay to work in otherwise. Two parts per badge = 34 badges. I considered this too, but my main concern is- where do the other six badges come from? Unless we had some auth play as leaders for the game... Two regions for leaders = 14 + 14 badges Inner city + outer city leaders? Could work, actually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anethia Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Well Sidequest idea time~ I had an idea where one person tells you about a scattered Dance group. They then ask you to find them and bring them back to their studio but they are at different places to give challenge. Once you do that the reword could be something like a Shell Bell.

Joker Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I CAN BE DRAGON LEADER PERSON IN THE GAME!!!!!!! Maybe a poll can go towards the 8 leaders? And the auth could be the elite four, with Ame or Ikaru as champion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Well, we should have auth as special people in the game. Because auth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodaku Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 er Xiphera..... the leaders are gonna be the Reborn leaders.... cause this game ish about reborn and all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I meant what 8 Reborn leaders should appear. Like if they wanted Cain over Aya, etc. Probably should of worded it better. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted April 2, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2012 Well, we're doing at least 17, so it's not 8 in any case. I would determine it by who could be worked into the story to be battled other than gym battles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashew Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Amethyst you could have the line hosts and league manager be leaders if needed. Lolololol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted April 2, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2012 So that would be myself, Ikaru, you, Hark, Edge and one more person. I would vote Mael, being that he was originally the co-founder. If we decided to do two-per type, anyway. dibs on dark, if so. So if it was between doubling up on badges per type, or cutting out 11 of the leaders to be put in other roles, which would people prefer? VOTE NOW.

Noivy Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 (edited) Or should I choose one of our leaders for each type and allocate the others to other parts of the story (would result in 17 battles, but less importance for the characters not chosen to be official leaders)? ^ This. If Reborn was shaken by disaster, surely many of them, Cal, Victoria, hell even Heather, could play a very key role. More of the El/Luna drama. Do the default 17. Elite 8. Champion be Ame/Ikaru/Nyu (Bullet) Have the remaining leaders be super hard monotype battles. This too. Elite 8 can be some of the OLDER members with teams that they have been known to make. Though the Champion position would be kinda debatable if we should or should not put anything up. Everyone knew that Bullet beat everyone. The double gymness. I want Electric or Fighting D: Will you always be hitting on Julia? I'll edit this as I get more ideas. Ah. Just thought of something. Some of the old regulars use non uber legends. (Like me with Raikou on my sun Team.) Since people come to Reborn from all over, would it be acceptable if those members ran those non uber legendaries? TERRA MUST BE A PERSON TO BATTLE!

Administrators Ikaru Posted April 2, 2012 Administrators Share Posted April 2, 2012 If Titania's in, I'm in >:c I COULD TOTALLY BE A SECOND STEEL LEADER AND THE GYM BATTLES COULD BE MULTI BATTLES YES DO IT THE LESSER AUTH COULD BE PARTNERS OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS AND BATTLE TWO LEADERS OF THE SAME TYPE OR THE LEADER AND ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT PERSON MY IDEA MAKES SENSE IF I KEEP TYPING IN ALL CAPS, PEOPLE WILL THINK I'M SMART ______________ No but seriously, failing that ^ I agree with Owen in that unused leaders could still contribute to the story, possibly moreso than the current leaders. Bullet could definitely be the "Red" of the game, fitting because he left Reborn eventually and was replaced by that loser panda reject :c This post will have many edits. Expect them. Also you should probably draft up a level curve and a canon way of obtaining more than a small handful of available wild pokemon if you haven't already Also also since the game base is pre-5th gen you could totally include Grimolt somehow without much effort... Spriting wise anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Amethyst Posted April 3, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted April 3, 2012 Allan and I think you should put all the Important regulars in it. ((PUT US IN IT[AND WILL])) All the regular trainers are going to be based off of members, to some degree. ^ This. If Reborn was shaken by disaster, surely many of them, Cal, Victoria, hell even Heather, could play a very key role. More of the El/Luna drama. All drama's going to be included regardless. Just in some cases it may or may not also be worth a badge.Ah. Just thought of something. Some of the old regulars use non uber legends. (Like me with Raikou on my sun Team.) Since people come to Reborn from all over, would it be acceptable if those members ran those non uber legendaries? Ehh, I'd feel sketchy about reserving legends till X-League when normal trainers have them. If Titania's in, I'm in >:c I COULD TOTALLY BE A SECOND STEEL LEADER AND THE GYM BATTLES COULD BE MULTI BATTLES YES DO IT THE LESSER AUTH COULD BE PARTNERS OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS AND BATTLE TWO LEADERS OF THE SAME TYPE OR THE LEADER AND ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT PERSON Multibattles are already planned... For gym purposes though? Hm... Possibly. Bullet could definitely be the "Red" of the game, fitting because he left Reborn eventually and was replaced by that loser panda reject :c X-League champion may very well end up with 6 level 100's, so I don't think we can get any Redder than that. Also you should probably draft up a level curve and a canon way of obtaining more than a small handful of available wild pokemon if you haven't already All Pokemon will be catchable. Already on this. Level curve will have to be continually tweaked. Also also since the game base is pre-5th gen you could totally include Grimolt somehow without much effort... Spriting wise anyway. Pretty sure we're running animated sprites so nope.avi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conor Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 what system are you using to make the game, is this going to be a rom based hack or are you going with the pokemon raptor sort of thing. either way i like to and am good at mapping. cuz im creative. if you want i can post some pictures of examples to prove it, but if you need the help im here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted April 3, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted April 3, 2012 RMXP, so like Raptor. Your brother said he started making some maps already, but we're really going to need to communicate fast and effecitvely if we're going to keep the same visual standards across the whole game. I would like to see examples of both of your work, though. Mapping for this is difficult because the scripts are modified to, like a normal Pokemon game, keep the character centred at all times. So, in out door locations, there always have to be buffer tiles. Most Pokemon games stack rows upon rows of trees for this, but being in a giant city, we can't really do that. I'm having to be very specific about every map piece because not only is there the issue of buffer tiles, but the outdoor maps are auto-connected without teleport events- so everything has to match up perfectly.
