why not trying to put in the zorua zoroark sprite? like on the hg/ss mods?^^

That's a nice idea, but it has to replace 2 other Pokémon and I'm not sure which two...

Some suggestions maybe?

Or more tips / comments / bugs / ratings? Thanks!

Quite a project you have going here. With a few games available, and at least a few more to come. Any chance of a full custom game in the end?

A full custom game, in which way?

Maps can't be edited for Pokémon DS games (yet). Maybe in the future, but for now, I'll only focus on storyline and difficulty, etc.

A lot of people downloaded the Bèta-version last week, so I'm really looking forward to all the comments / ratings / bug reports / etc.!

I'm currently editing the first post's buglist, as some players found more bugs. I really try to correct them, so the next version will be great!

I don't see why people would stop playing it, seeing how it's the best Pokémon game so far (for me, at least).

your right, Platinum was good for me- I just played it way too much.

I do. I can tell you, after I finished this, I'll start the same project but with Pokémon HG / SS.

I look forward to it.

I think the problem with adding the new new pokemon is that there are no movesets or the such for them as of yet?
It would be difficult to come up with a totally new moveset and abilities for them.
Plus the sprites would need to be animated and a shiny version made.

Well shiny versions aren't hard to make, it's literally just a pallette swap.

Yes but trading the hacked pokemon would also cause problems

Yeah true, but I want to add Zoroark's prevolution, too.

I can sprite, so creating the animation sprite for Zoroark is not hard for me.
Oh, and I can create some nice movesets etc. The problem is that 2 Pokémon have to be replaced.. That's just a pity.

@Tubby28, yes, it is for Pokémon Platinum (USA)!

And why don't you replace Togepi and Togetic ? It's like in HG/SS, the Togepi egg is given by Cynthia and they are almost not used in the game.
Otherwise, you can use this if you want to see what are the least used pokemon :

And for their sprites and moves you can use this :

Zorua

12 - Pursuit
19 - Transform
24 - Payback

Zoroark
Egg- Poison Fang
27 - Payback
31 - Swagger
38 - Trash
43 - Crunch
48 - Swords Dance
62 - Shadow Force
It only lacks animation and maybe replace some moves to make them more interesting to play

Is it possible to make a cheat or something like that, like the one for hg/ss, which makes the wild pokemon appear randomly?
That'd be perfect in this hack/platinum

Thanks for the sprites. Can I use them freely without giving credits? Otherwise, I'll try to create my own. If I replace Togepi and Togetic, then there's still Togekiss.. Besides, I already 'used' Togepi in the game, as some Trainers do have Togepi / Togetic / Togekiss in their teams. It's a nice idea though. I cán edit the Egg Pokémon Cynthia gives you, so that won't give any problems.

why not replace the unows?

The Unowns have different sprites, but are actually just óne Pokémon. I want to add Zorua too, so that would cause some troubles...

Regarding the Zorua / Zoroark addition, I was thinking about replacing Phione and Manaphy. There's no in-game Event that let's you get Manaphy, so it would be impossible to receive it in-game - except by cheating or by Pokémon Ranger (but I guess the original Manaphy you ever obtained (via Ranger) is on another copy of Pokémon DPP of yours). Phione therefore is useless as well. If some more people agree with this, I might create a Poll so people can vote whether they would like this change or not. Even more pre's:
- At the end of the Sinnoh Dex, so it can be counted as a Legendary
- It's close to Darkrai (and this rom edit kinda features Darkrai, so I could do something with Zoroark, too)

I'm almost sure there's a cheat like that available somewhere. If it's for HG/SS, then it will be there for Platinum too, I guess.

Input team rocket!

I'd love to, but the tools to achieve that are not available at the moment. I'd need to edit the Overworld Sprites and Trainer Sprites, and I can't do that.



Edited Great Marsh, Pastoria and Route 212! That was a whole lot of editing + testing.
I will now edit some more Evolution Ways. The newest version will be uploaded tomorrow!


Oh, is there somebody that would like to record their progress and upload it on youtube? If not, I'll try to do it, but I'd love to see some other people's progress in the game!

Well, I would have to make use of programmes.

For example, I need Tile Molester and PokéTEX for Overworld Sprites, but that doesn't seem to work for me. I saw Pokémon Bloody Platinum had edited overworld sprites though.. I should contact the maker of that Rom Edit and ask some things, as PokéTEX doesn't work for my edited rom. That's too bad, yes.

Editing Trainer Sprites is impossible for now, too. I already created some sprites, but it just doesn't seem to work with PokéDSPicPlatinum, as it shows the sprites in black and white.

What do you think about replacing Phione & Manaphy to add Zorua / Zoroark? I'd like to hear your comments.

Never had that pokemon in my teams or in fights, so I'd think that you should replace phione & manaphy to add zorua & zororark.
that's my opinion

Please don't. I like your hack and all but first there are some people who do use manaphy and it would be weird if you sent a manaphy egg from your ranger game, buyt it hatches as Zoroark.
Also it won't be compatible with other games, and you don't know Zorua's and Zoroark's movepools yet.
