http://i.4cdn.org/vp/src/1385470065347.png Now, here's something we must consider:
"We are not gen/vp/ and they are not us. Just like anyone else in the /vp/ community some of us like this and some of us don't. There's no reason to discuss gen/vp/ ITT except on the basis of comparing/contrasting similar ideas in the same way we reference other pokemon gens. Anyone actively hating on confirmed game info in either threads is most likely either butthurt or a troll and should be taken with a grain of salt."

So, now that I've done up a map for Perth that people seem to be happy with, I've moved on to Alice Springs. This is the first, incredibly shitty draft. I'll be cleaning it up, making it look pretty and filling in the empty space to make it look interesting eventually, but before I do all that, I'd like some suggestions on the layout. Should there be more houses, less houses? Should the map be bigger, smaller? Should I bother having the secret military surveillance facility in the southwest corner as a nod to Pine Gap?

>>16422733 I'll see what I can do.
Should I make the sea-wall entirely out of big rocks, or should I instead make it out of a mix of big and small rocks (like I currently do)? I notice in a lot of real Pokemon games, they use nothing but big rocks. But I used big and small rocks to break things up (also doing big rocks with the current tileset is kind of a pain).

hi guys can I work on the water starter while you guys are working on the grass one If positive just tell me what it should be based on and what is its characteristics I will not disturb you until the grass one is finished
Anonymous
>>16423482 We haven't actually decided what the water starter should be based off of, yet. A lot of people like the idea of a Water/Poison Platypus, but it's far from universally agreed-on.
Still, roll with that. Do up a water starter based off of a platypus (or any other aquatic thing you can think of), then come back here and post it.
Foxy !QqL8nX9URE
>>16423751 Quite a few people also liked the idea of water/electric Platypus but as someone in the last thread said
"I think it's important we are more subtle with the Pokemon than we are now. Look at Kalos, it's France, but the Pokemon arent all BAGUETTES AND SNAILS AND GAY GUYS.
If the dex is SOLELY Australian icon animals its going to look bad and alienate anyone outside of Australia. Keep it cool guys."

Holy fucking shit how many times do we have to go over this? No fish or non-land based animals for starters. No dolphins, no mantas. There is a reason all starters have the ability to WALK on land and not swim or float. Having a fish that floats along side it's trainer as a starter for any reason, "unknown fish mechanics" or "psychic ability" or otherwise, it's fucking stupid. find a marshland creature or literally anything else. Australian turtlefrog is a good place to start.

If it lives in a swamp, a river, a marshland and has the ability to walk on land (WALK, not float) it works. Foxy stop pushing your fucking manta and dolphin ideas. A dolphin with legs would look like shit and a Lamoby was a horrible starter idea. Save those pokemon for the water section of the pokedex, keep them out of the starters.

>>16423805 You know, this is the first thing I thought when stumbling over this project. But then I saw the complete overabundance of Australian flora and fauna and how anything unrelated got shut down pretty quickly unless it had god tier art, and thought that the entire idea of this project was to have it extremely Australian-based. Which, for an isolated area like Australia could actually work.
Seems really weird to have this brought up now.

>>16424191 I'm not even rusing, I just recall someone saying it was psychic and it had a big pink(?) orb on its head. I liked its shape, it was pretty unique compared to other pokemon. I don't get why you just brush it off as shit.

I understand you want to stick with muh patterns and stay as close to the original animal as possible but just look at Snivy, it's a snake and has legs.

>>16424271 Those designs are shit for starters. It's not about pattern it's about context. Snivy is a snake with legs and it works because it is a land based animal, and it loses those legs as it grows. Taking away the legs of a manta or dolphin would ruin it. Slapping legs on water creatures looks like shit and it has nothing to do with creativity. You're unwilling to accept other ideas and you keep samefag posting the stupidshit manta.fuck off with it and find a river,swamp,or wetland creature. There are plenty to work with. Leave your manta for somewhere else in the region, we need more pokemon in the Great Barrier Reef area anyway and we don't want to be bogged down with fish.

FOr the 90% Aussie dex problem: Heres an idea. Why not take a queue from reality and have the E4/Gubmint/whatever of pokeAus want to keep it that way because invasive pokemon species almost rekt the ecosystem and the people of pokeAus dont want that to happen again?

If they are weaker than the foe, they will vanish before being attacked. The line can learn a variety of special moves, like Psychic or Ice Beam, and also learn moves like Protect, Barrier, and Reflect naturally. *Their signature ability, Disappearing Act, raises Evasiveness one stage when hit by a physical attack. Each Hocus has a different suit on their chest/back of their ears. Maybe they could have a stat difference depending on their suit?>Spade: Higher Attack/Special Attack >Heart: Higher HP >Diamond: Higher Defense/Special Defense >Club: Higher Speed Hocus could be found near/in cities, to explain why they have the magic hats they live in.

>>16427067 Again, I dislike the notion of actual artificial objects on pokemon. What hat is it, where does it come from? Is it found, stolen, or made? Is it part of the body or seperate?
But if we roll with the idea, have the suits determine the shape of it's tail.
So, will this guy add to the overpopulation of foreign rabbits? Or does he replace the cutting rabbit idea entirely? Or do we drop the common rabbit alltogether?

>>16427503 I do think the ability might be too overpowered though - consider revising it. Perhaps have a different ability, and give them the move Vanish (pokemon disappears [like during Dig/Fly] and reappears next turn, with percentages like Protect for accuracy)

Flower is a flower, and the bone is what is left from Cubone's mother.
The magician's hat is something tailored by humans and I personally hate it when pokemon have human clothing.

I really love the design on the final evo (the first and second look a little plain though - it seems a bit weird having the final evo having much more features rather than expanding upon some the previous evo had) My one gripe is "Magical powers" - I know it's magician based but it just doesn't sound very Pokemon (unless you mean magical powers as in like magic tricks - then it's fine) . What would the color schemes be like? Will it level up normally or use any items/special methods?

Maybe they make the hats using scrap, like thrown out clothes and leaves, then use magic to make them real?
Or we stop arguing and they just find them, cause Pokemon logic But seriously, we could come up with a reason why they have hats. I like the turning scraps/trash into hats idea.
Anonymous
>>16428107 Not all of those concept are in open favour. I'll say again that I like the concept, and the gimmick idea, as well as the fact that the third stage oes around challenging pokemon.
I do not like the hat and the wand being actual artifacts. I think the concept would need to work around that somehow, like it seeks out hat-like objects whenever it can.
I also much prefer the concept of the cutting rabbit should ever the need to decide on one of the two concepts arise. I think the latter adds more to the world and has an equally strong if not stronger concept going for it. Plus it's assumedly a single stage which we likely won't have many of.
That's my opinion on this thing.

But, seriously, thanks! I'm stoked that you line Hocus. For the "magic powers", I mean like magic tricks and psychic abilities.
The color scheme is a black hat with a red line. The Pokemon itself is a white, with reddish eyes. The tail and chest fur are pinkish. The suits and the tip of the ears (for Halliocus) are black/dark red. Halliocus's gem is a foggy red.
Anonymous
>>16428174 Yeah, either the hats are made, not intrinsic to it's apearance, or found. If we do the latter, I really think it should only be on the final stage, or perhaps on the second one too. Most mons with artifacts don't have them as basic stages, especially not in such a specific case. Evolved pokemon are rarer, and them only evolving once they find a hat to use makes sense to me.

Even if this rabbit was a good idea, which it's not, there is no reason for it to be three stages and waste a dex slot. It's entire gimmick can be resolved in two pokemon, hocus and pocus, halliocus isn't even a thing. That said, using actual words for names is shitty, don't use a single line amongst over 700 pokemon (abra) as an excuse. Don't out real clothes on the rabbit, make it a part of the design.

So, the hat is not a natural item. This is Pokemon we're talking about. Where did Kadabra and Alakazam get their spoons? Where did Machoke and Machamp get belts? Where did Hitmonchan and the Poliwag line get gloves?
So what if it has a hat. Maybe when it's born, it's parent Halliocus makes it a hat with magic.

Trying to use magic as an explanation just doesn't do it for me. Combined with the fact that it doesn't suit the Australian theme, we don't plan on having a huge dex, and we have a far superior rabbit concept already

Secondly, the cutter rabbit has a lot of potential of being a gimmick mon as well
remember that the type discussion went as far as fairy too with perhaps great advantages against steel types and environmental attacks, using hoard tactics and the like. Even if it turns out fairly weak, I think there are plenty of ways to make it interesting. And ultimately that is the main criteria for me.

I know you want to move on from the Hocus line, but I have a few suggestions: -The bottom half of the rabbit could look sort of like a hat, so it gives the illusion of a hat but isn't an actual item? -The ears on the rabbit could look like the suit it represents when they get put together? (When apart they just look like shapes, but when together they look like the suit?) Like pic related

>>16424415 That was unnecessary.
This project is devolving into samefagging and getting nowhere. 4chan is a good place for collecting ideas, but not refining them and making them stick. I can't help but notice that the fire starter discussion has died and it wasn't completed.
I created a Writer's Corner on the forums. Anyone who is enthusiastic about writing, take a look.
http://z13.invisionfree.com/PokeAus/index.php?act=idx As for coming up with ideas, I'm seeing a lot of bad vibes from these threads lately. Someone will post an idea, one or two people will agree to it, and then those three will just circlejerk around it.
I like this magician rabbit, but I don't think it's a fit for this project. I'd love to see a better designed fence-rabbit, since the rabbit-proof fence is a legit thing. I also don't think we have room for two rabbit lines, it would feel like too much. We set our limit to 100 Pokemon, there is no sense in wasting spots. Furthermore, not everything needs to be a three-stage Pokemon. This needs to be considered by artists and people who come up with ideas.

I'm not arguing for Kangaroo/Koala starters, those have much more potential within the dex. The platypus on the other hand doesn't have a huge amount of potential and does fit perfectly into the starter mix. It starts off small and cute and grows to be ferocious, like other starters. Having one iconic creature won't ruin a damn thing.

>>16430219 This is an entirely new concept and wouldn't work with the cutter rabbit, unless we perhaps make it a regional difference
which might actually work Regardless it would ruin the rivalry.
>>16430237 >I can't help but notice that the fire starter discussion has died and it wasn't completed. That doesn't matter though. We can always pick it up where we left. Wanting to chew things through in one sitting isn't going to make the project move faster.
And the problem with having thread consensus being the deciding factor is that people actually need to advertise their ideas, while the opposition needs to criticise it thoroughly. Can't blame either side really.

>>16430378 Yeah, we may have a few split evolution ideas, but that's no reason to disregard a decent idea.
Though I'm just one of those who actually doesn't see a platypus as a decent starter. I prefer the two-staged surfer or the split evolution.
Though sidenote: How many single stagers do you think we should have? What is GFs ratio?
If we go with rabbit and fox rivalry, we'd already have two at least.

Has the water/ grass starter been set in stone, or can we still give ideas for it? If we can still give ideas, what do people think of the idea of basing the water or grass starter on a Turtle frog? (Pic related) Evolutions could be based on other frogs like the Corroberee frog, or the Marsupial frog. If it was the grass based starter it could go from damp, mossy based frogs --->desert dwelling frog with a secondary ground typing or something.

Heck, if you wanted there could be a little mini game where you get paid $100 pokebucks for each vulpix/ninetales you catch and turn in.

>>16431925 Hell yes. It would add a little variety into the game while not taking up a massive ton of story time, and would be perfect for grindan' pokes/getting dosh.
And because it's pokemon, instead of getting killed the pokes you capture are simply sent to another region via the computer system and handed out to trainers there.

That's because they've understood a basic facet of Pokemon games. Just because it's based on a region does not mean everything must link to it. And besides, it's not like there are no magicians in Australia.

I thought the aim of this was to create a very unique region where Australian animals were going to be the basis of the project. It's something that has been brought up a lot, and other projects that have used Australia have always tried to use this concept as well.
This is why I think this project is better off dying. Nobody gives a fuck what this was meant to be about and all people are doing is shitting up what could have been something quirky and fun.

Jesus fuck people. You had a fucking blueprint sitting in front of you for a YEAR and none of you figured out what would happen? You think gen /vp/ was always like it is now? It started as a bunch of people brainstorming shit. No real surveys, lots of casual chat. Then it grew and people began to disagree. So it adapted to it. It's not perfect but it's the best model for a 4chan based project.
If you'd rather spend your time plugging your ears and signing to yourself about how this is just a chill little art thing you and your buddies are doing rather than trying to adapt to and evolve with the inevitable changes then this project deserves to fail.

>>16434069 Actually, I don't find the card idea that unique either. Japan uses playing card themes all the time in stuff. I'm surprised they haven't already used it in Pokemon, though they probably know it's cliche as well.
You may as well be asking what sets Scyther apart when it's a praying matis with blade arms, yet people love that one. At least it seems as though the scissors rabbit has an interesting backstory as to why it exists. If it has a counterpart in a fox like I've seen others saying that makes it seem rather fun.

I don't mean 'playing cards are unique in the whole of media'. I mean in terms of Pokemon.
>interesting backstory That doesn't make an interesting Pokemon. It makes an interesting story. And, here's a fun kicker, the story works just as well with magic rabbits as it does scissor rabbit. The important part of the story is 'rabbit fence goes up and they find a way past it'.
As for the counterpart making it 'rather fun,' I have no words to adequately explain how stupid that is. That you're suggesting a half-hearted rival Pokemon idea is more interesting than a bunch of different forms with changing stats is just a little bit sad.

>>16433938 Ah, I will keep that in mind. Thanks.
>>16433964 Fortunately, I don't care whether people actually respect me as a person. I only concern myself with one thing.
"Do people find my work good or useful?"
Anyway, the point is this. I don't disagree that projects need to adapt their administrative structure as new challenges emerge. There's nothing wrong with using the occasional poll to gauge opinions and make concrete decisions, or setting up specialised teams for things like story development.
However, I joined this project because I wanted to see a region wholly inspired by Australia, down to the mons themselves (and that this would help determine which mons could be borrowed from official GameFreak games). From what I could tell, most people in early threads agreed with this.
But in the last few threads, we seem to be straying from this line of thinking, towards the kind of thinking which makes it okay to stick a panda in France. This makes me distinctly uncomfortable with the direction of the project.
I will most likely still continue work on this project, no matter what happens or what decisions are made, even if the whole thing dies and that means I'm the last goddamn person working on it. But there are certain things and directions in which the project could head which I have a distinct preference for. Other people have their own preferences, some of which I strongly disagree with. And I will fight for the direction I feel is right. But if that direction is abandoned, I will still work. Because I'd rather see this thing finished in a way I don't like 100% than not finished at all.

What I was saying was just because it hasn't been used in Pokemon doesn't mean it hasn't been done to death already. Kamen Rider, Super Sentai and Precure, and I'm sure a lot of other children's shows in Japan have used the card theme for far longer than either of us have been alive. It's a theme that's just so frequent now that there's nothing surprising about it, even if you were to put it in the setting of Pokemon.
Sorry, but I do find the rabbit and fox quite interesting because of it's basis in reality. It's the same reason I like Seviper and Zangoose and there's not really enough of those sort of rivalries in Pokemon.

From what I could tell, most people in early threads agreed with this. That's just not a concept that's communicated anywhere around this project. Pokemon regions are never exclusively based on the area. If this is what you wanted from the off, you should have made damn sure everyone knew it.
There's a not in the Sage OP about how the region is 'based on South America but not everything needs to be South American' because people kept shooting ideas down for being unrelated to Brazil.
(For the record, I think it's completely fine to put a panda in Kalos because Kalos is not France. It's based on the country but is it's own separate place and perfectly entitled to have whatever fauna it likes. Ditto with PokeAus imo.)
It sounds like you guys are barreling ahead without cementing basic details.
Shit like 'we agreed in the first thread' is meaningless to new people who don't know this and don't have it communicated to them. This is especially important because you're straying from the standard model.
The FAQ isn't sufficient in this regard.
If people seem to be thinking the other way then maybe it's time to make it OFFICIAL. Have a survey (the dreaded word). They're the only way to get opinions and settle arguments properly.

>>16434504 >Enough with the language thank you. Sorry, that was the Brit in me. I forgot how 'cunt' sounds to other cultures.
And, yes the theme is pretty ubiquitous but that's because it's strong and recognisable. Discussing Japan is irrelevant since this isn't going to have much traction over there. The theme has a relatively unique twist with the stat changing dynamic that means the motif actually matters on a gameplay level. I'm struggling to think of a game which has presented differences between the suits that aren't merely superficial.
And again, the rabbit/fox thing isn't precluded by Magic Rabbit. There's no choice between 'Fence/Fox or Magic Hat'. You can have a fox rival for the magic rabbit. Or am I missing something?
I still don't think that rivalries are all that interesting by themselves. Rival mons tend to be very forgettable. Durant/Heatmor for example.

>>16434719 PokeAus grew out of a thread that initially intended to recreate Australia in the Pokemon world. As development continues, should we maintain this focus (i.e. everything should be firmly rooted in Australian culture) or expand the scope to hew more closely to the typical GameFreak model (i.e. heavily based on Australia's culture but with the opportunity to explore non-Australian characters/Pokemon ideas etc.).

Doing something like their Screening Question (which just asks a basic fact about the project) is probably a better idea.

>>16435009 I agree, if the idea actually makes it into the game, we could redesign the rabbit to fit more Australia...

>>16435009 Aren't the rabbits supposed to be non-native though? Maybe instead of the foxhound idea, their rival could be a Bilby type shaman who represents Australia's Aborigine magic?

>>16435201 I like this idea.
Modern magic vs Voodoo.

>>16435398 >Voodoo. Is that the right word? I tend to associate that with Central/South America more than Australia.

3rd stage for possibly water or grass starter Based on gastric brooding frog & marsupial frog in that both male & female have tiny little first stage babies in their mouth. They could have a unique move that involves spitting out their babies at an enemy? Like bullet seed but with tiny frogs. Any feedback is appreciated, will post this on the forum in a bit.

but I absolutely love the colors.
Plus this thing is freaking cool.

>>16435515 I think the baby thing is a bit morbid... but you could easily make the third stage have something to do with the legend of Tiddalik the frog.

>>16435515 This is cool, but certainly not a starter. It's way too ugly.

>>16435515 make the first stage a poliwag, get rid of your midstage and make your first stage the mid. also dont make them grass/water or water/grass, we can be more interesting than that. I could see Pure Grass or Grass/Poison working, Or pure water or Water/Poison, it would have to have dry skin either way, or perhaps even sapsipper

>>16435534 That's actually very helpful anon! I wasn't sure if the colours were a bit too garish, so it's good to know their alright.
>>16435587 Sounds good!
>>16435649 I didn't actually know about that legend, but that could just as easily be used! Imostly just wanted to use the 'babies in mouth' idea because the gastric brooding frog is so unique, it just had to be put in.
>>16435785 This is just the first draft of them anon, I'm more than happy to change them. Their really just another idea, since the water type seems to be a bit undecided at the moment.
>>16435847 I was actually thinking of a secondary poison typing, but it's really up to everyone. I'm not super fussed. By poliwag, do you mean a literal poliwag or make something that looks -like- a poliwag?

>>16435201 So the rabbits have a variety of different forms that specialise in different things. It can't change forms though.
So maybe the Bilaby is able to change forms but it isn't as specialised? Something to do with the body paints perhaps. But the trade off for adaptability is that it's less specialised? It would need to be able to change forms on the fly to have an advantage but maybe his stats are always fixed. He could have a signature move that depends on his body paint and you'd be able to change it up as you travel. About to enter a water route? Have your Bilby put on his Storm Paint and wreak havoc with a powerful Electric move. Heading into a forest? Best apply the Sun Paint and burn your Grass/Bug enemies.
I dunno, just spitballing. I think this is a great basis for a rivalry. I love that it has a historical route but also a thematic one. Zangoose always reminded me of a sort of super-hero with his Zoro-esque markings and I always thought Zangoose and Seviper would have been more interesting if they really played that up.

>>16435921 I mean something more tadpole-like. You could even make it look like a pebble with a kelp tail. mitebcool. Maybe give it arms instead of feet to make it more unique, like pic related

It's also the least popular of the starters Your thing has eyes in its mouth.
