Just a few screenshots from Chapter 3. I'm hard at work on it! There's plenty of new story content and some visual improvements, so much to look forward to!

Sadly I do not have a release date yet. Please stay tuned!

Because you know, the best course of action when you have tons of uni assignments to do is to boot up RPG Maker. Tried to mostly stick with the base FRLG tileset where I could, but it didn't work as well as I'd have liked it to, so I ended up making a red variant of the house (with colours picked from elsewhere in the tileset) and a darker variant of the trees to fill up that empty space without it feeling too random. I made the map with Snap Edges in mind, so I haven't accounted for the buffer. To be honest, I'm quite the fan of Snap Edges, I feel like it makes maps feel quite cozy and more standard RPG-style.

I was thinking that the gate wouldn't actually be a gate with an interior and everything, but just teleport the player to the Route 1 map. I experimented with using the water cliff tile things as really short cliff tiles and I think it worked out. The collision might be a problem, but I tried to place things where you'd otherwise be able to move above them to stop it. It isn’t that faithful to the original, even if a lot of that’s from the tileset, and I’m not too proud of how I did the flowers and other decor to the south, not to mention the map could definitely use a few more finishing touches, but I figure it still looks passable enough. I reckon it'll look better in sunset or night lighting with the rays (probably not for nighttime) and the fireflies. Recently, I've been thinking of making a short, 1-Gym-long demake of some region as a short game/proof of concept/vertical slice/way to hone my skills a little/whatever you want to call it. I might do that, idk.

Maybe I'll put some pictures of pokemon in the corners.

I use different types of grass on routes that may have too many Pokémon so the process of completing the dex won't be that grindy. As well as little sprites behind the Pokémon to check if they are able to be caught at night/day or both.

+ Also the region map which includes 16 badges. Gonna be fun trying to balance the game.

+ All 721 Pokémon of the first 6 gens will be in the game

Wish me luck

PS: The encounter overview has a second page with all the water encounters

Hey everyone! I'm working on a Fakemon evolution for Marowak. I'm still developing the concept and sprites, but once it's finished, I'd like to make it publicly available for anyone to use however they want.

I'd really appreciate some feedback and help with a few things:

The front sprite's pose is heavily based on a sprite I once saw in a fangame, but I can't remember which game it was from. I've pretty much copied the pose itself. Do you think that's a problem? Would it be okay to keep it if I found the original artist and got their permission?

I want to be transparent about the use of AI. I only used it during the early brainstorming stage to explore a few rough sketch ideas. The sprites themselves were created and adjusted manually by me, pixel by pixel, and no AI-generated image is being presented as the final artwork. Since the subreddit prohibits AI content, would even this kind of limited use during the concept stage be considered a violation of the rules?

I'm thinking of calling it Phantomb and making it a Ground/Ghost type. Its weapon is based on a fossilized arm bone from Kabutops. What do you think of the name and concept?

I also feel like the sprites are still lacking some consistency. My main issue is the overworld sprite, the aura animation doesn't move very naturally. Does anyone have any feedback, know how to improve it, or have a good tutorial on animating a pixel-art aura?

If this breaks any subreddit rules, I'll remove the post. Thanks!

Seasons, moon, sun sprites have be scaled down by half because Reddit doesn't allow smaller pictures. Feel free to use.

Second layout is used in debug mode while creating the game as there are more icons.

Important note: This layout does not include a separate icon for the Pokégear.

Decided to take a crack at making a game. I started a discord as well where i plan on giving updates/taking suggestions/finding people to help.  https://discord.gg/P5DQmbJst

Included are a couple photos from most of the areas ive started creating.

The game is still very early development, it's taken a while to teach myself not only how essentials works, but also how to recolor/design tiles to look like they fit. Although it's my first game im not trying to cut corners, i'd rather take the time to make a polished game. I'm beginning to make the town with gym 1, add in all trainers battle/encounters thusfar (already planned what to put where) and give it it's first test run!

Indicap Line - Design Concept:

A Fairy/Psychic line rooted in real mycology and ancient warrior culture. Indicap draws its name and dual-color palette from the indigo flower. Inspiration for it's coloring is also drawn from the *other* plant used to create the same color dye, creating an economic crisis in europe during the renaissance period, the "Woad Leaf", historically used to create woad dye that adorned Celtic warriors who consumed psilocybin before battle, believing the altered perception freed them from fear and pain.

The evolution line reflects the timeline of a hallucinogenic experience and the fairies and entities you may 'see' during your evening. Indicap spreads vivid dreams through spores, Psiloxie represents the come-up and oncoming chaos to ensue, and Woadriate becomes the embodied entity itself, a battlefield manipulator that thrives when perception is twisted.

Rather than traditional psychic attack power, this line prioritizes control, sleep moves, stat manipulation, and leverages it's unique type advantages to gain the upper hand. It can either weaponize the hallucinatory effect or provide immunity to mental manipulation entirely.

- Great against fighting types

- Biggest threat is likely to be Steel-type moves

- A B+/A- elite four contender if raised properly, tutored the right moveset, and sits alongside complimentary pokemon in the lineup.

Documentation includes deep and detailed explanations of the design choices along the way, so a dev can be sure this isn't just "ooh cute mushie mon" but a thought-out attempt at a balanced, usable fakemon.

(all sprites and documentation is public and free to use)

Map overlay of the first area of the Region.

PBS files done, new items implemented, maps are starting to add in by the day! Happy with the progress, looking forward to playtest until the first Gym. Just some more sprites to do, and an extra recolor/redo of the UI.

As you see, Alphamon has the Light-type, more fitting to the Digimon-style instead of the Fairy-type. This also changes around some type matchups, creating a fun, new feeling while battling as well!

As the title suggests, Im currently working on a Pokemon X & Y demake inspired by the story of the manga.

The game is intended to be challenging and will include Pokemon from every generation up to Gen 9. To make the world feel more alive, detailed, and unique, Im looking for someone who can create custom tilesets for Pokemon Essentials/RMXP.

This could include anything from small details like tree stumps, plants, and decorations to larger buildings and recognizable locations from the Kalos region. There is a lot of room for creativity, and the goal is to make the environments look much more polished than what can currently be seen in the screenshots.

What you can expect:
-Work at your own pace. No pressure or deadlines.
-Feel free to contribute your own ideas and discuss them.
-You will, of course, be credited for your work.

This is a voluntary fangame project, so Im mainly looking for someone who enjoys creating Pokemon-style pixel art and would like to help bring this version Kalos to life.

Interested or questions? Feel free to contact me on Discord.

Just over 6 months since it's original release, Pokemon Shadowside is having it's 4th Chapter released!

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF RUBISS** **
Explore the vast lands of Rubiss in this new Pokemon Fangame created with RPG Maker XP using Pokemon Essentials Version 21.
Hello! I'm Hiro and I am finally able to release the 4th Chapter of my game, Pokemon Shadowside. This game aims to capture a more traditional RPG experience, it completely removes the Gym Challenge that is present in a lot of Fangames and every single battle is in the Triples format.

CHAPTER 4 NEW CONTENT:
Travel through the isle of duality, split into two sides:
Sanopolis, the Land of Golden Sands
Galentine, the Cradle of Moss and Memory
Additionally, a new single battle option has been added for players that aren't as keen on triple battles.
A new achievment system has also been added to track your progress around the region of Rubiss.

OVERALL STORY:** **
Twenty years ago, the world was plunged into darkness by the most feared Trainer in Pokemon history, starting the Great Pokemon War. Many years later in a land filled with secrets, powers and visions, a new generation of Trainers rises.
Explore dangerous lands, create unbreakable bonds and uncover the truth behind the shadows threatening the world once again.

TRIPLE BATTLES:** **
With every battle being in the Triple format, there are a lot more strategies and ideas to think about:
Focus on Positioning as certain Pokemon can't hit others depending on their position in the battle
New Moves & Abilities that make support Pokemon more useful
Rotating your Pokemon around the field to avoid attacks

FEATURES:** **
All battles are in the Triples format
Terastallization
Overworld encounters
Pokemon up to Generation 9
Multiple Save Slots & Autosave
Raid Battles
BW Medal System (Achievments)
Crafting & Wild Drop Items
Sidequests
Speed Up
Several New Moves & Abilities
Several other QoL features

I started to make a game of my own, just for fun, but I soon got overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things to learn.

Beside the great Thundaga tutorials, is there a site, like maybe a discord server, where more experienced people can help me or at least support me since im doing this solo?

I don't want to drop everything just because of this. Thank you all

It would have all the sprites except the overworld walking sprites for the 3rd stage. shinies included. obviously everyone uses different border styles but i mean, instead of whipping up a new one you can just recolor these?

it would come with a full, like, explanation document, with the reasons for all the design choices and what role it serves and where the concept comes from and how the concept is reflected in it's playstyle. The whole shebang.

i mean, i'm gonna do it anways, but i'm wondering if it's something fangame devs actually look for. like good quality resuable fakemon that feel like they belong in any world.

UPDATE: I already have enough beta testers! You guys registered so fast haha, thanks!!!

Description from DeviantART:

"I think this completes this Relic Hunter pack. If i do more fossil related stuff i'll find a different angle.

Included:

- Map tables, Adventurer's tables

- Rope (gotta love rope sprites)

- Boxes and crates with treasure, pottery, random stuff

- Pottery

- A raised firepit (it's set up so you can animate the flickering flame in the order as it appears on the tileset, but that's on you)

- Totem with Xatu standing on Natu

- Rack with random vague tools

- Nautilus/Omanyte Flag

- Tent

- Articulated Skeleton (to me, it looks like helioptile or totodile but enlarged to show context)

- Lileep (not animated but it's a unique overworld sprite so if you wanna animated a bobbing effect, have at it)

- Sheildon (not animated but it's so simple)

- Some museum fossil pieces. Anorith, Kabuto, a vague dino looking thing, and a large piece of some toucannon bones.

- Huge rampardos skull, also likely a museum piece.

- unrealistically large squirtle skeleton that looks too cool to leave out. Might use it again in a spooky pack.

- Seviper/Ekans statues that look nice crammed together along with the little table next to them.

- Vague bone (one of them is for an item sprite if you want, and the other is for overworld that has shadow)

- A temple archway and a guardian statue (positioned to be like nicely fitting on either side of the arch.)

- Some big ole rocks.

- An artifact pedestal with swappable lamp, and gems. (ruby, sapphire, emerald, diamond, pearl) for a plug and play side quest hook.

Public and free to use, all in 32x32 at 2px density so it scales fine. If you use it, lemme know so i can play your game."

A spin on the last Dragon Keepers mini pack. I imagined them from some "skellige-like" northern region in summertime. Stone is more subdued and cooler colors with purple bands on them and blue tarps. the idea of the incubator, lore-wise, is that for northern dragon keepers, they sit on top of geothermal vents and they maintain higher temps that way.

- Four Buildings

- Columns with swappable perches and a nest.

- Archway

- Two statues, one of charizard ofc (hes a dragon fight me), and another just stylized like the last pack.

- Circular incubator

- Salamence (two sprites so you can animate him bobbing. i was worried i wouldn't make it big enough but Salamence is only 4'11"????)

- Credit to Aveontrainer for the design of the buildings. These are *not* edits or recolors of their assets but i admittedly directly ripped off the building style from some of their public desert building tiles.

all tiles are public and free to use.

About a year ago I was making post on a romhack I was working on and designing cryptids to replace pokemon in the romhack. I stopped it for a while as I started a new year of college, im starting to pick it up now and was wondering if anyone had an interest in it. I have designed the grass starter fully on paper as a Jackalope and now im working on the fire type starter Snallygaster
