FORUM (join it, there is some discussion there):
http://z13.invisionfree.com/PokeAus/index.php ?
FAQS:
-Is this going to be a game/rom hack/computer game?
We hope so. We're still in the idea stages, but we have people working on parts of every aspect: story, pokemon and character design, spriting music, maps, RPGmaker - this is looking to be a reality.
-Isn't this just Gen /vp/ 2.0?
Well, it is a fan game made by people on /vp/ featuring a suite of newly-designed Pokemon. This is where the similarities end, however. They are doing their own thing, and we are doing our own thing.
-KANGAROO STARTER?!/1?1
There are tons of Kangaroo ideas to work with, chill son.

Hey folks, gen/vp/ bro here. Just came in out of curiosity since I was told that you guys like to shit all over us... we don't do that to you. Anyone who comes to your thread to fuck with you has nothing to do with us, and if they claim to be with us they're just trying to cause a shitstorm between our groups. We don't even talk shit about you within our own thread that much.

>>16227254 That's not us, either. There's a subgroup that exists between us just to start shit.
The core of our group wants to be on good terms with gen/vp/ so we can both do well without stepping on each other.
On another note, drew some starters and dinghosts.

Good. We can have several NPCs drop hints about their locations in different areas.
Once the player finds all of them, you can talk to a certain old man who will ask you to investigate the, wait for it, Azure Flute.
Of course, all the plates aren't obtainable until after the Elite 4 is beaten.

Here's an idea for a pokeball mimic fakemon. It would bury itself in the sand with its mouth open and the red and white pearl sticking out. As for type, it doesn't have to be Water.

>>16236989 Why not have it be in a desert oasis?
This would explain why few people have left the town to explore, because the trek into the desert is harsh.
We could make the player character 16-18 is, to reflect on the fact that children aren't able to handle the desert, but they'd still be young enough to keep with pokemon's children's game appeal.

You're being obtuse by saying dinosaurs and birds have the same feet because they're distantly related, not because you think those look like bird feet. The point isn't weather or not birds are dinosaurs and faggots have similar feet, it's that the design might look better with different feet.

Thinking about it though it'd be neat if instead of just grill marks, perhaps some could have blast burn marks to differentiate between ones that evolved on a grill and ones that evolved via a heat vent.

>>16242796 Just like this. Only instead of over the head I put it around the side since I thought it looked better. Since the tail isn't see-through you wouldn't be able to see its head.

Kitick: The idea is that the top left is a small kiwi bird with huge explosive potential in its body, but is terrified of it's own power.
Once it used Self-Destruct/Explosion in battle (or, if we're limited, Level up after learning Self-Destruct/Explosion), it evolves into Kiboom.
Kiboom: Having used it's explosive potential, it charred off it's feathers, destroyed most of it's body and probably everything around it - it's now bitter and violent.

>>16243211 I was thinking... What would the evolution line for Dyngheist be? Pic related.
Evolution idea 1: Starts off as a normal type dingo Pokemon ( Someone else can design it, I can't think of anything that looks good ). At level 30 and above, it evolves if you give it a rare candy after it has fainted. The Dingo evolves into Dyngheist - a Normal/Ghost type Pokemon (So it's like it has died and come back as a ghost (suggested by New York and some anons)). If Dyngheist breeds, it produces eggs of a pre evo (which again, someone can redesign, my current idea is that it's similar to Zorua in some aspects - creative, I know) as it wouldn't make sense for a ghost's offspring to be a normal living thing as opposed to another ghost. Pre evo evolves with a dusk stone or something.
Evolution idea 2: We throw everything in the last idea out the window and we make Dyngheist the Lucario/Zoroark of Nullos. In the threads a Dingo was suggested quite a lot for the Lucario/Zoroark esque and Dyngheist is Dingo/Tylacine based. It's simple - the pre evo, at level 30 and above has high friendship (friendship value is 220 or higher) and evolves into Dyngheist. Dyngheists produce pre evo eggs.
Any thoughts?

Right, I can still respond to bashing. Tell me what's shit and what's not. What people normally think constructive criticism is actually asskissing - it's not hard to believe that some people think this way. I normally think constructive criticism as saying why something is bad and hinting at ways of how to fix it.
e.g: That looks fucking disgusting. The neck is too fucking long, what is it? A Giraffe or some shit?
^ Constructive as it states what's wrong, why it's wrong and hinting at how to improve.

By the way, I totally suggest calling it Yominka.
Yomi is the japanese name for the land of the dead and serves as a sort of tie to the Japanese origins of Pokemon, and Minka is obviously pretty self-explanatory.

>>16245045 The names were just something quick.
I just wanted to propose that.. The roaming ones should be something else.. but that's just my opinion..
I really wanted those spiders ;_;

>>16245093 Like I said, I do like them, and if the roaming spiders aren't a thing I reckon they'd be pretty neat. It's simply that the redback, funnelweb and huntsman are all way more well known and "Australia represent!" than these guys, unfortunately.

>>16245081 Instead of life and death themes, why not a theme about everything having a beginning and ending (after it has served its purpose) or the cycle of living things - everything gives way to another thing. I guess I'll leave it up to you - you're really creative and know your shit.
inb4 it's the same thing with different wording So, is Pokemon Champion version pretty much dead? Anonymous
I've kind of been obsessing over that adorable platypus that was posted a while ago.

>>16245081 >>16245042 >>16245177 Okay, let's see... I haven't got any sort of encounter method yet, but if I was going to put it anywhere it'd be on an isolated little balcony/outside area you can only reach through the ice caves north of Gym 4, since the tribe it came from is from the Adelaide region. It hides in this outcrop of rock for a good reason, since the sound of its voice is an invocation of death for anyone who hears it.
There's probably something extra you have to do to make it show up but that can be sorted out later.
>YOMINKA >The Deathcry Pokemon >Psychic/Flying >Ability: Doomcall >Whenever Yominka uses a sound-based move, the effects of Perish Song are also applied. Yominka is immune to Perish Song. Any time Yominka uses a sound-based move its happiness drops a bit. >The sound of a YOMINKA crowing is said to bring death to all who hear it. Because of this, YOMINKA is a shy, reclusive creature that has developed telepathy as an alternate way to communiate with others. >Plenty of psychic/flying moves of course, and a smattering of sound moves like Hyper Voice or Boomburst or whatnot. If you want to use it as a plot point then a rogue somebody wants to capture Yominka and broadcast the song it sings region-wide as a way to wipe out everyone who is too tied to technology, leaving only those who live the traditional bushland life to survive and live in harmony with the region and the Pokemon.
Essentially, make Yominka a totally unwilling party to and victim of its own abilities. Makes it a bit more sombre than edgybird Yvetal.
Champion Version is stalled right now, at the very least. Regardless of what status it has at the moment I coined the name Prismambi so I feel totally free to suggest it to you guys, especially knowing that Champion Version may (read: probably) never happen.

Can we please make the starter Water/Electric if it's gonna be a platypus, so this and it don't clash too much?
Please?

>>16244776 For it's design, how about being based upon on a Sharp snouted day frog? They were commonly found, ranging from Mount Graham to the Big Tableland, north Queensland. The species is believed to be extinct. Seeing how Tiddrought is a frog and found in the outback Queensland area, it seems to fit. It also fits that it has become extinct, seeing how the Aboriginal myths are quite old. Thoughts?

>>16245308 Actually, tacking on to this idea and possibly tying into the main theme a bit as well, all my previous ideas still work, but here's a little more:
Yominka's song is actually a Dreamtime Lullaby. When a person hears it they will soon enter The Dreaming Sleep and reunite with the world that we all spring from. For those who do not hear the song and must deal with the Sleeping person it is a tragedy as the person will never Wake again, but for the Sleeper it is simply a wonderful Dream.
After all, everything that Wakes must eventually Dream, such is the way of the world.

Yeah, this idea sounds good to me. Shame I can't draw for shit, else I'd help with the design part of this game.
I'll turn my thoughts to game plot and characters soon, I just find Australian legendaries fun to work on since I love the old legends.

>>16245308 Amazing. Incredible. You deserve some place of honor.
As the anon from
>>16245375 said, everyone head home, this is just too amazing.
Expanding on the plot idea that
> a rogue somebody wants to capture Yominka and broadcast the song it sings region-wide as a way to wipe out everyone who is too tied to technology, leaving only those who live the traditional bushland life to survive and live in harmony with the region and the Pokemon. I think the Rainbow Serpent could fit in perfectly into this. It is said that after the Rainbow Serpent was cut open by humans (in order to release two boys it had eaten (but they did, the boys had become birds)) it got enraged causing the mountains it had made to crumble, causing mass destruction, as the humans tried to flee they were turned into animals.
How about: some evil (in the eye's of the player until the plot's high point) team could be aware of the rogue's plan and try to stop him - instead they mess up and end up awakening the Rainbow Serpent somehow, becoming enraged it turns them all into Pokemon (and the player character into one too (as they are with the evil team at the time)). Then there's a segment where the player character is temporarily a Pokemon and must find and stop the rogue.
Ideas? I don't know, perhaps anon (the one who came up with the amazing legendaries (or maybe anyone else)) could expand on it or rethink it?

>>16245648 Okay, from now I'm I'll use a trip for elements of discussion, so at least people can clearly track stuff.
As for your ideas, there's definitely potential. I'm gonna go sleep on them, probably think about them at work a lot and then come back, hopefully with some more plot ideas.
I only fear that some people would find "being turned into a pokemon" to be hokey, but it happens all the goddamn time in mythology, and Bill already did it once, so we'll see.
Unrelated, have my chart of the legendaries as far as I am aware of them, in terms of any that have had some vague discussion/approval as yet. Hardly set in stone, just something for people to skim over easily enough to get up to speed on what they're discussing. If I've missed any please let me know guys.

>>16246267 I think that the going theme of the Dreaming vs the normal world and potentially some living naturally vs modern living thing as I mentioned with Yominka might be better. I think we'll come up with something good as long as we work at it.
