Any new progress for the Simul Region Project?
Been away for a week for family gatherings. I will be slow to post until the 26th which is when I will be able to finally take care of everything I need to to get this back up and running smoothly
Official Starter Hidden Abilities!
The votes (from both the post and messages) are in, and the following are the Hidden Abilities for our Starters:
The Leafcoatl Line has the Hidden Ability of: Overharvest - Grass-type moves gain priority when this Pokemon is in battle.
The Embaa Line has the Hidden Ability of: Fur Coat - Reduces damage from physical moves.
The Puddlepus Line has the Hidden Ability of: Poison Point - Contact with the Pokémon may poison the attacker.
For the unique evo contest
Mantiny (middle) -> Phantasmid (left) if male or Pterantis (right) if female
Type: bug -> bug/ghost (Phantasmid) or bug/dragon (Pterantis)
Evolution occurs when two Mantiny of the opposite sex are taken out of the day care after having laid an egg together.
Inspired by the ghost mantis, and female mantids' occasional practice of biting their partner's head off after sex. Pterantis is also in the shape of a pterodactyl for some reason.
The votes are in, and Armormite’s Hidden Ability will be... Bulletproof!
Simul Region needs more Dragon (2 Types), Electric (2 Types) and Psychic (1 Typ) acutally for the Pokedex.
Thank you- we are going to try and bolster some of our lesser-represented types in future contests. However, since this is a community run region, I cannot force people to choose specific types for an open contest.
Don't forget to check out Atomic Reactor's "How to make a Pokemon Game" videos on Youtube, and join Relic Castle for a good game creating community stuff.
I’ve been using Atomic Reactor as my guide, thanks to a suggestion from another fangame maker! There are a few things I’m struggling with despite the guide (some of it has to do with the fact that I’m on Windows 8 and using a newer version of essentials), but I’ll check out Relic Castle too!
It is time for us to determine the names of the Text-First line! This Pokemon goes from Fighting to Fighting/Dark. As we did with the cave line names, you may submit names for both stages, using (1) in front of suggestions for the first stage, and (2) in front of second stage names.
What should the names of these Pokemon be?
Starter Hidden Abilities!
We are going to vote on what the Starter’s Hidden Abilities will be be. As I stated yesterday, the starters will keep Blaze/Overgrow/Torrent as their only Basic Ability, and we will select the Hidden Ability from the Advanced/High Abilities each line had. The Hidden Ability will not change through the line, similar to the actual games. You are allowed ONE VOTE per poll on this poll, meaning you can vote for one ability per line.
Leafcoatl Line (Grass->Grass->Grass/Flying)
A1. Chlorophyll - Boosts the Pokémon's Speed in sunshine.
A2. Big Pecks - Protects the Pokémon from Defense-lowering attacks.
A3. Overharvest - Grass-type moves gain priority when this Pokemon is in battle.
A4. Giant Flyer - Doubles the power of Flying-type moves when a weather condition is in play.
Embaa Line (Fire->Fire/Ice->Fire/Ice)
B1. Flame Body - Contact with the Pokémon may burn the attacker.
B2. Fur Coat - Reduces damage from physical moves.
B3. Rapid Fire - Fire-type moves have priority when this Pokemon is in battle.
B4. Thick Hooves - Increases the power of foot/kicking moves by 20%.
B5. Frozen Solid - Ice moves become super-effective against Water-types when this Pokemon is in battle.
Puddlepus Line (Water->Water/Poison->Water/Poison)
C1. Swift Swim - Boosts the Pokémon's Speed in rain.
C2. Cute Charm - Contact with the Pokémon may cause infatuation.
C3. Superior Swimmer - Water-type moves gain priority when this Pokemon is in battle.
C4. Poison Point - Contact with the Pokémon may poison the attacker.
C5. Storm Drain - Draws in all Water-type moves to up Sp. Attack.
What should the Hidden Abilities for our Starter lines be?
Evolves when friendship is low
From the creator:
For my recent unique evo entry, names/types/etc. could be decided by community
I'm not sure if the Unique Evo Pokemon line contest is still going, so here is my take on it!
Meowow's evolution method involves friendship. It evolves into Mauser with high Friendship, and it evolves into Luckat* with low Friendship. Meowow is Normal, Mauser is Normal/Psychic, Luckat is Normal/Dark.
*Luckat can have the name changed to Lukat if the community chooses to
Update for Abilities/The Dex
Since this will be made into a fangame and is losing the PTA focus, there are changes that must be made to the way Abilties are set up. All Pokemon (apart from the Starters*) will lose their Basic Abilities. The Advanced Abilities of all Pokemon will become their normal Abilities, and their High Abilities will become their Hidden Abilities. In the case of multiples or overpowered abilities, we may need to vote on which to keep.
*Starters are different in that they all have their respective Basic Ability (Blaze, Overgrow, Torrent) and then one Hidden Ability. We will vote on which Advanced or High Ability to keep as the Hidden Abilities for our Starters later on. Meanwhile, I will make the appropriate changes to the Pokedex for each Pokemon and their Abilities.
Armormite still needs a High Ability! The vote was to change it from Adaptability into something more appropriate for the Pokemon.
The two options are:
1. Sandstorm
2. Bulletproof
Which should be Armormite’s High Ability?
It is time to determine the name for our Cave Line!
Both are Ghost/Rock. You may submit names for both stages, but please put a (1) before a name suggestion for the first stage, and a (2) before second stage suggestions. You may submit as many names as you like.
What should the names of these Pokemon be?
Do you have any current contests?
I think so? I need to go through since we’re now trying to revamp the project. If you’re curious, our front page of the blog should have any current contests we may be running.
What do you think about a Reddit or/and a Wiki Page for the Simul Region? What do you think about a Twitch Channel (like the Pokemon Uranium Project for Showing Gameplay, Spriting progress...)?
I’m probably going to work on making a wiki as soon as I am able to resume actual work on the region. Not really a huge fan of the way Reddit works so I doubt I’ll make one anytime soon.
And tbh I’m not sure at all how twitch works but I’d love to do that to show gameplay and me creating the maps honestly that just seems like a great idea. And I think you can comment on twitch videos right? So people could give feedback as I work which is nice.
Very large image, but I’ve been working in RPGMaker XP using Pokemon Essentials to try and get used to it for our new direction with this project.
This is a test for Garnet Town- the gold-roofed building will be Professor Palmwood’s lab, complete with rocks and machinery for her studies. The northernmost house will be the protagonist’s home, assuming the protagonist lives in Garnet Town (Obviously, there are other options for Trainer origins and we can vote on that later).
I’m going to work on making it look a little more mountain-y, but thoughts, everyone?
I can see I still have a few people hanging around, so i’ll give this another shot. I do need someone to help out, and I’m thinking about revamping some of the things a bit- as I will be getting rpg maker xp in the steam sale (and have abandoned PTA in favor of PTU) I will likely try and rework the region as something to be made into a playable game.
I will need your help, followers. Please comment or like this post if you are interested in me continuing this region with a new goal, and if you will be around to vote/submit for our contests.
I will need a helper, but for the next few weeks I won’t be posting heavily here as I am working on another project at the moment.
