[PC] Pokemon Fangame/ROM Hack General Discussion

[PlasmoidThunder]

I see that a lot of Pokémon fan games are more difficult than the real deal.

I recall playing Pokémon Pyrite a few years back, and the second/third Gym (can't remember which) had a freaking Electivire. The only reason I beat it is because I got lucky somehow.

 

Some recent one that's been floating around called Pokémon Insurgence doesn't allow you to buy revives and stronger healing items from Poké Marts, I do believe.

Try playing pokemon ruby destiny reign of legends, now THAT is difficult. Before you get the legends...

LOL Play Pokemon Kaizo Crystal and Kaizo Blue if you want hard.... stuck on Bugsy in Kaizo Crystal and stuck on Surge in Kaizo Blue........

 

 

Pokemon My Ass Version is epic too (being srs btw that is the actual name of the hack)

 

Pokemon Fire Red Omega Is also Unforgiving....

 

Pokemon Strike Yellow

 

Pokemon Brown

 

Pokemon Victory Fire

 

Pokemon Ultraviolet

 

All the hacks I have played

 

I wish Pokemon Dark Violet and Pokemon Red Story would finish...

Before I discovered the glitches that I tried not to exploit, but actually needed, Blaze Black 2 was brutal on challenge mode. My favorite is Storm Silver though because it is able to sync with Battle revolution. Sadly they didnt make a colloseum compatible with Gen 5.

Here's to hoping for a HD Colosseum/XD sequel for the Wii U with consistent, high-poly models, Genius Sonority.

You guys are talking my language. I love rom hacks. On my facebook page (which I'm not going to show you because I like to keep my IRL life and internet life separate), I had a showcase of Rom hack glitches. I was going to create my own page about it, but I've been lazy.

I don't think I've beaten that game yet. I know I've beaten Life Of Guardians though. That game was pretty tough until I found an infinite rare candy exploit.

I'm surprised you guys are talking about tough rom hacks, yet none of you have mentioned pokemon Dark Rising. God, the level spikes in that game is unforgiving. It had this in depth storyline about you being a chosen one trying to find your father and stop this terrorist organization along with this entity. I heard there was a sequel that was made recently, but I have yet to beat the first one.

those were made by the same people that worked on XY's pokemon so blame whoever doled out the budget for colosseum and xd

 

 

having once dabbled in Pokémon fangames i can only say: lol @ using the RPG Maker XP engine with bolted-on scripts. Also fake-touchscreen style DS layouts on a PC game is a crime against UX design.

I think Justin Stockert's White 2 hack looks epic. I hope he releases it one day..

[Egnaro]

@Cayne what emulator are you using to run Storm Silver? When I use Desume or Nogba I get some weird bugs. One of them mainly being walking into any building at random times and the sprite of your character is all fucked up.

 

I would have played Dark Rising at @BrawlTheMan, but sense the author is making a Dark Rising 2 I will wait for it....

It was less noticeable in the GameCube titles because of the lighting engine and the overall lower poly count. It became horrendously apparent in Battle Revolution, where Gen IV Pokémon looked all shiny, but the older ones did not, especially Blastoise and Persian.

[The 100 Mega Shock!]

that's probably a shader/materials issue cause most pokemon's textures are a giant blocks of flat color with bits of lighting painted-on around details, eyes and mouth. there's also a few textures unaltered from Stadium 2 with a tiny bit less compression in the game

@Egnaro I used Desume v 9.2 I believe it was but the only bug I ran across was a game freeze everytime I triggered the viridian forest mew event. So I Put it on a DSTWO supercard and it ran perfectly.
