ty_taurus Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) So I have a question about TMs... Do they have to be pre-existing TMs in the Pokemon Games, or could you add in a TM for something like Wood Hammer or Metronome if you wanted to? I'm curious for a couple reasons, A ) because I'm a little curious about how they work programming wise, and B ) because it would be amazing to have an Ice Punch TM eventually Edited November 17, 2013 by ty_taurus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seehan Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I think Ame can make any TM she wants, but she's trying to make it as consistent to the main series games as possible so I don't think we'll be getting any Reborn-exclusive ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 The original code is from Ruby version which didn't contain many of the TM's we are used to now heck going into the 6th generation? Jeez I'm starting to feel old now. Heck in other RPGMaker games I've seen people create entirely new moves and make them into TM's. Your answer is yes it COULD be done.... but it WON'T be done. Ame is adding the 6th gen moves in for release 10.5 and I'd have to imagine the only new TM's that will be coded in will be the 6th gen ones.

Administrators Amethyst Posted November 17, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 17, 2013 Correct; I want to maintain loyal to the current TM usage for two reasons: 1) I don't want to significantly stray from the metagame because this is originally a competitive battling community 2) I don't feel comfortable taking the creative license on existing Pokemon to make the judgment call of which can learn what move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardaal Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 @Ame, Off-topic quick question: Since Venasaur learns Sludge Wave by Dreamworld, and the DW abilities are allowed here, shouldn't Venu learn Sludge Wave by TM here too (and so on for similar cases..)? o.O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted November 17, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 17, 2013 Eh, maybe. We'll work that out with 6th gen I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ty_taurus Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 Well Ice Punch and Drain Punch were TMs in the Gold and Silver gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seehan Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Giga Drain was a TM from gens 1-4 :/ I wish we had giga drain Q__Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
