Title: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 12, 2013, 02:52:20 am
Project Catch 'Em All
Welcome to our full game. This is a Mugen project created by Alexei and Myself (Ryon).
Project Catch 'Em All is a mugen fighting game like no other. Imagine a mash up of the Final Fantasy Battle System, with the Pokemon Battle System, then throw in some mugen.
You end up with a Pokemon fighting game where all of your moves and attacks are based on ATB and range.
The idea for this game came from Ryon. Just imagining a pokemon character for mugen that couldn't move, but would only move based on what attacks the player selected from a in game menu. Majority of the coding comes from Alexei. His Genius in coding has made this idea come to life and he even helped expand the idea of the ATB guage.
Attack moves can clash. For instance, Bubble Beam vs. Flame Thrower, Or Hyper Beam vs. Hydro Pump. Everything can clash making for a more interesting battle. Recovery time is also included for moves such as Fly and Dig.
Included in the demo is 2 Stages, 6 Characters (3 Alexei, 3 Ryon), a Beta Screenpack and Lifebars.
What we are looking for are skilled stage creators and possible character coders who can follow our template for the engine.
Now your probably wondering Which pokemon you can add, Well to tell you the truth, you can't just add anyone you want. A wonderful sprite artist by the name of Joshr has sprited all of the pokemon sprites that we use. You can view his sprites here following this link. If you choose to do so you may create that character.
Alexei is doing all of the effects using After Effects. Unless you know how to use it or have fitting effects of your own, I would like to request we leave that to Alexei.
If you'd like to make a character or contribute something, then PM either Ryon or Алексей (Alexei) here, so we can view your request and get back to you with some info and details on proceeding.

PLEASE POST ANY FOUND ERRORS, AND GENERAL FEEDBACK HERE! ITS NOT PERFECT BUT THIS IS A START TO SOMETHING GREAT.
DEVELOPER REFERENCE GUIDE Please use this a reference and a guide on making characters compatible for this game. Also please remember to make your characters WITHIN your downloaded version of the game, and PM myself or Alexei your work, So that we may add it to the offical game.
[Project Catch 'Em All - Developer Reference:] This sole purpose of this document is to help define the developing bounds of this game. The system is 100% custom and has some rules to follow if you want everything to work properly. In order to follow this without too much confusion, it's assumed that you have knowledge of MUGEN CNS and basic programming concepts. This isn't an intro to mugen coding or a tutorial by any means.
---------------------------------------------------------- [Variables] Variables can be split into two groups: system and user.
System Variables: System variables are used by the system and shouldn't be modified unless otherwise stated.
var(0) = ATB Gauge Max - This is the maximum value that the ATB bar is at any time. - This changes and is set at the very beginning of a move. var(1) = ATB Gauge Current Value - This is the current value the ATB bar has at any time. - DON'T modify this at all. The system handles it all times. var(2) = ATB Gauge Modifier - This value can be set within a move to change the recovery rate of the ATB Gauge. - For example, Scyther's Agility sets this value to increase the rate of recovery for 3 moves. After those three moves are up, it is set back to 0. - Don't set this to a ridiculously high number because it's used like this: - current_value := current_value + 1 + var(2) var(3) = Used for AI - Don't modify this value. var(4) = Reserved var(5) = Reserved var(6) = Reserved var(7) = Reserved var(8) = Reserved var(9) = Reserved fvar(0) = Player position. - At the beginning of the round, this value is recorded so the pokemon always return to their spots after behing hit away from them, or moving away during an attack. - Don't modify this. fvar(1) = Reserved fvar(2) = Reserved fvar(3) = Reserved fvar(4) = Reserved fvar(5) = Reserved fvar(6) = Reserved fvar(7) = Reserved fvar(8) = Reserved fvar(9) = Reserved
User Variables: User variables are variables that you can use for anything in your character. There's no much restriction here. You can use these for whatever you want. In most cases, for advanced attacks, you'll need these. var(10+) fvar(10+)
---------------------------------------------------------- [Attacks] Attacks are the bulk of each pokemon. They have 4 each that can be anything you want, within reason.
ATB Gauge: At the beginning of each attack, you need to set the ATB value for that attack: [State 5xx, Set ATB] type = Null trigger1 = !time trigger1 = var(0):=100
You're setting the maximum value here to 100. The system resets the current ATB value to 0 when you choose an attack. So, at the beginning of this move, you'll have an ATB of 0/100, in this case. Set ATB higher for a longer recovery time and smaller for a shorter recovery time.
State Numbers: 500,510,520,530 are reserved for attacks. It's imperitive that you keep true to these values. The select menu uses them explicitly. If you use anything else, the system won't be able to perform your attack.
The menu has four attacks that you choose from. Each state corresponds to a move: 1st move = 500 2nd move = 510 3rd move = 520 4th move = 530
Attacks can span over multiple states too. As long as your attack is within 10 states (all should be), you'll be fine. For example, 500 can be the start of Attack 1, that leads into 501, 502, and ends at 503. That's perfectly fine.
Ending states: In order to return to your character to their spot, all you have to do is send them to State 0. For example: [State 5xx, Stand State] type = ChangeState trigger1 = !AnimTime value = 0 ctrl = 1
If the system detects that the character is not in their spot, it will force them into their "run back" state. You don't have to worry about that ever. Just send them back to State 0 when done.
Damage: We code damage values to match that of the actual attack from the game. For example:
Flamethrower: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Flamethrower 95 damage. Since a flamethrower would be particle based (spawn many helpers that each does its own damage), we'd split 95 by the number of flame particles we're spawning. If you're spawning 5 flame particles, then each one would do 19 damage each. If the move is only going to hit once, then it would do the full damage of 95.
Attack Clash: Most, if not all attacks clash in some sort of way. Most elemental, particle type effects have this ability. For example: Bubblebeam vs Flamethrower. They could cancel each other out or nullify damage. All attacks involving lauching some sort of projectile (helpers only) at the enemy are required to be hitable and cancelable. You will use HitOverride to make this happen. In some cases, those attacks have "lives," or a specific number of times they can be hit before dying. For example: X-Scissor can take about 5 hits before being killed. Flame Wheel can take 3. This is done with a variable that controls the life of the attack. HitOverride will send the helper back to its current state. At the top of the state, you check to see if prevstateno has a value and then decrease your "lives" var by 1. When it's less than or equal to 0, you send the helper to a die state.
Example of single-life HitOverride: [State 531, Hittable] type = HitOverride trigger1 = 1 attr = SCA,AA,AT,AP slot = 0 stateno = 532 ; Death State time = 1 ignorehitpause = 1
Example of multiple-lives: [State 531, Init Vars] type = null trigger1 = prevstateno && !time trigger1 = var(10):=var(10)-1
[State 531, Die State] type = ChangeState trigger1 = var(10)<=0 || FrontEdgeDist < -40 value = 532
---------------------------------------------------------- [Getting Hit] In order to keep things natural, I kept the default common states with some slight modifications here and there. When adding your "get hurt sprite(s)" to the sff, all you need to do is set 5000,0 and/or 5000,1 to your pokemon's get hit sprites. All the others should stay as KFM sprites because they're required by MUGEN, not by the system. If we didn't get debug flood from removing them, I would. But, just follow this rule to avoid it.
Animations are handled like you would with any other character.
Wall bounce, red hurt PalFX, and "squishiness" are all handled by the system.
---------------------------------------------------------- [Lifebars] This is more of a note than anything else. The lifebars are coded into the system and as a result: per character. They're not standard lifebars by any means. You can still access "life" and "lifemax" triggers like you would in any character.
---------------------------------------------------------- [Stats] At the top of every character's primary CNS file, there's a [Data] block. Values for Life, Attack, and Defense are set here, but note that they're accurate to the source. For example:
To accurately set your character's stats, go here: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net and search for your character. Find the section that says "Stats" and then underneath "Base Stats." Look at the area that says "At lvl. 100." There's a range of numbers for HP, Attack, and Defense. Choose the maximum value in that range for each stat.
For example, here are Skarmory's stats: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Skarmory#Base_stats life = 334 attack = 284 defence = 416 power = 0 ; Set to 0, because it's never used.
---------------------------------------------------------- [Affinities] This section will be embellished upon once the system allows for affinities. Currently, it does not.

First of all, why are you talking in third person?? Second, this looks sexy as fuck. Love the idea :D Good luck with this.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 12, 2013, 02:59:15 am
Not first person.
As a guy trying to throw a sales pitch. I told some of my friends at work about this idea, and I explained it the same way.... except with more detail for them.. (none mugen players ya know)
THANK YOU.

This looks like an amazing project! I'll download the demo ASAP Good luck on this Alexei and Ryon!

Goddamnit, I meant third person :P wow this guy in Spriters Resource did a lot of pokes, almost the entire dex up to 5th generation is there.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 12, 2013, 03:06:16 am
And he's planning on making them all.... eventually. I think he's also speaking in the 3rd person because it's a collaborative project. It's as if we're both standing up there telling you. XD

Post by: Agent DeadPool on September 12, 2013, 03:53:16 am
Where to start INCREDIBLE!!!!!!?? but I must ask how many pokemon you guys plan to do o.o? I love the gameplay mechanics liking the fact it resembles a real nostalgic pokemon game and when you actually use fly you dodge the attack AMAZING :D!!! Plan on doing anymore characters with the pokemon such as the female version of the boys or any antagonist with their own legendaries? For instance N with zekrom or reshiram...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 12, 2013, 03:57:22 am
Glad you like it. :) This is going to be one of those things that builds over time. We'll basically be making as many as we want to really build a good library here. That's not just us though. Anyone who wants can contribute by making a character for the game.
Like most things, it boils down to the sprites. If Joshr has made them, then they'll be advocates for the game. Unless of course, someone else makes sprites in the same or similar style.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 12, 2013, 04:00:58 am
Sadly Joshr only made Red and Gold with the same style of sprites.
If someone made other trainers with the same style and animations (different poses of course) That would be great.
Im sure you all enjoyed the boss. Thats major credit to Alexei.

Well I can't stop playing quite yet until I USE EM ALL but I can understand hectic work not making any promises but i can attempt some spriting and coding I'll pm you guys some details when or IF i get the chance to.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 12, 2013, 04:08:12 am
Well as far as making them goes, there's a guide and format to follow. It's not that hard. Most of the heavy lifting is done already. :)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: QuickFist on September 12, 2013, 04:12:43 am
So you'll be making update patches every certain time?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 12, 2013, 04:13:38 am
Yep, but not that frequently. I'd rather release a bunch of changes than just one every week or whatever.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: QuickFist on September 12, 2013, 04:24:33 am
Yeah, of course. I just played it, this is some amazing stuff! I would have never imagined you could do a Pokemon game in Mugen, and be that good! Man I can't wait to see other Pokemon like Pikachu, Charizard, Sceptile, Blaziken, etc...

I get a Permission Denied when trying to download from mediafire because of copyright issue with one of the Pokemon songs you used. Besides that game looks cool hope to try it if you plan to solve the download issue.
Edit: never mind now its allowing me to download sorry about that.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 12, 2013, 04:27:04 am
Our initial goal was to make each character unique and we're going to try to continue that as we make each character. Though, it'll be tough as we get more and more of the same types made and whatnot.

I understand. I'm not fan of Pokemon either. However, when Ryon presented the idea to me, I really liked what I heard, hence our collaboration. :)

I love the mechanics of this game, this is awesome guys! There are mechanics I feel that are too "generic" for a game like this (wall bounce and the hit counter to name a few) but overall this game is amazing. Do you guys plan on adding an affinity system of some sort? IE: Fire > Water, etc?
This definitely has potential to be one of the better things released within the community. I can't wait to see future updates from you guys! :sugoi:

Thanks! To be honest, without the wall bounce, it felt too flat in terms of animation. Since hit frames are pretty much a single frame, I did all I could to liven things up, using code. :) Yes, I do have plans to make an affinity system. Each move will have it's own affinity, as well as a base affinity per character.
The first update is going to have the affinity system. I actually wanted to put it in this beta, but I got held up with other things. Yeah, Scyther is OP. I've been able to take down Mewtwo with him, but Mewtwo always punishes me as Skarmory. It's all about timing. XD
This is fantastic! Love how you have set everything up.
Thanks! We plan on making it a lot better too. :)

Excellent game project you guys. The system is really original and it's simple to use.
Are you guys also planning to have a few combination attacks?
Let's say you use Bubble Beam and when it's performing you combine it with another move or use it as a combo move.
You know it was like that in Pokemon for being more effective. Trainer says something like: "Use bubble beam...! and now use tackle!"
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 12, 2013, 11:20:29 pm
no we don't plan on that.
combo moves were never a thing in pokemon anyways. at least ... when i was watching (nothing past johto for me thanks)

Skarmory feels too safe. He can easily launch out his attacks, recharge time seems pretty fast, and fly's a pain to deal with, I used quick attack with Quilava to avoid it but by the time I came back he pretty much got his turn again and continued.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 13, 2013, 12:13:22 am
The thing with Fly is that if you interrupt him, he's got a huge recovery time deal with afterwards. Posted: September 13, 2013, 12:14:31 am

Nope. We're not going to do combination attacks. This was based off of the games, not so much the anime.

this is so good that I played through and beat mewtwo with each pokemon. I did notice one flaw though so I unlocked mewtwo just to make sure and here's what I noticed. quilava is so small that mewtwo's psycho cut and aero sphere wont hit him. this was disappointing when actually fighting his ai as a boss since those two are his most frequent attacks out of the four

yeah I had the same problem so I switched over to sandslash and timed his dig attacks so he would dodge and attack right when he went back to his trainer

Post by: Ryon on September 13, 2013, 11:39:35 am
@ ferretshadow
Yeah he literally dodges alot of attacks. We'll try to figure out something regarding attacks missing quilava.
and Yeah Dig vs. Fly, is hella interesting. Im glad you found a way to beat it.

Damn Alexei,
You sure got some interesting stuff going on. This is quite a creative take on mugen and pokemon too, I hope you guys stay with this until the end and don't leave it unfinished due to no motivation (which happens quite often in mugen).
Good luck :D
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Omega on September 13, 2013, 12:35:51 pm
Yeah motivation is highly needed. İ hope we'll see the final release aswell as they mentioned that they already have a template ready so it shouldn't be hard to get more Characters done really.
Also Ryon and Alexei, wich Characters are in development now?

That's really awesome to hear. :D. As you may (or may not) know, I don't take feedback lightly. I respect it and will push Ryon and myself to do the best we can. :)

I give all credit to Ryon for coming up with the idea. It was an amazing idea that needed to come to life. That's why I'm here. :) Well, we both have full time jobs and lives of our own to deal with, but we're in contact all the time and are tracking progress as we go. Motivation is always a tough thing, especially when you have two full games to handle (the other being NZCR for me. :P)
Yeah motivation is highly needed. İ hope we'll see the final release aswell as they mentioned that they already have a template ready so it shouldn't be hard to get more Characters done really.
Also Ryon and Alexei, wich Characters are in development now?
Yep, a template is in place. To be honest, I normally just take one of my other characters and start ripping them apart and recoding the attacks. The main system is in common1.cns, so all game mechanics are global from the get-go. :)
Last night, Ryon and I decided that we were going to make Pikachu (me) and Beedrill (Ryon), next. There's some thought put into which characters should go in this game. I want each character to have their own pros and cons and to keep things as balanced as possible. We're trying to keep true to the Pokemon games' moves as well. For example, Air Slash (Skarmory) has a 30% chance to make the enemy flinch. That translates to the enemy being knocked down and their ATB bar being reset.

While I was doing Arcade (in the first match) this happened: (http://neuropod.net/imagehost/uploads/c75137d9422af44b6dcaff7ac4a03ce1.png) Sandslash (CPU controlled opponent) stood still there. I could attack him until he was defeated. Notice the full ATB bar. I'm sorry I don't have other infos as I wasn't testing it properly.

yeh i got that glitch aswell anyways you have sandslash, so far in the game only missing charizard and zapdos and you got all my favoritts :P i do think charizard will find his way in (i hope so atleast) but i dont expect zapdos since i for some reason cant think of how you are going to do that but then again you did well with skarmory so :p i guess the possibility isn't totaly out the window good luck though love it so far

This suggestion is a bit extreme but have you considered adding a switch system (Ability to change between multiple Pokemon in mid-battle)? The MvC tag system, which was made a while back, would do wonders within this game IMO.

I made this Pokemon Mashup loop a while back. It's Pokemon World and Killin' It by Krewella. Might make some good temp select music if you're lookin' for some, i'll send you the MP3 or whatever.

Oh yeah. Also. I'm diggin' this project. The animations are crisp, too. I'd love helping with the backgrounds or something too if you need any help. Loving this so far!

While it's a great idea, I'm not sure how I'd even make that possible cleanly. The selection process would have to be before the fight starts and could easily be skipped by pressing some key like "a" or "b."

As far as the second screen goes, we know about that. It's not really a glitch per se. It's just that the stage graphics haven't been made to fill the screen because the lifebars usually cover that area. It'll be addressed in the next update. As for the first screen, you used Dig when that happened?
yeh i got that glitch aswell anyways you have sandslash, so far in the game only missing charizard and zapdos and you got all my favoritts :P i do think charizard will find his way in (i hope so atleast) but i dont expect zapdos since i for some reason cant think of how you are going to do that but then again you did well with skarmory so :p i guess the possibility isn't totaly out the window good luck though love it so far
Charizard will be made eventually. As for Zapados... no sprites have been made for him yet. Yeah, but Skarmory had sprites. That's the only thing keeping us from making him. Thanks, appreciate the support. :)

Oh yeah. Also. I'm diggin' this project. The animations are crisp, too. I'd love helping with the backgrounds or something too if you need any help. Loving this so far!
Personally, that's not my style of music. I need metal and rock to live on. Electronic music just is annoying to me. But, to each his own. Regardless of my tastes, I think you did a really good job on that. Maybe Ryon has some different opinions?
Thanks. Joshr is an amazing spriter. Sadly, I don't think he's accepting requests, so we've got as much as anyone else would to work with. If only I could sprite well. :P

have you considered adding the tag team system into this and having 2 vs 2 versus/3 vs 3 versus modes. it would feel more like a pokemon game if you could swap out pokemon and have a battle of strategy. when they switch though the timing of the sprites would have to be perfect pokemon going in pokeball -> trainer throws another ball with pokemon

Sandslash (CPU controlled opponent) stood still there. I could attack him until he was defeated. Notice the full ATB bar. I'm sorry I don't have other infos as I wasn't testing it properly.
As for the first screen, you used Dig when that happened?
I left in the quote the reply. I don't know if Sandslash was going to use Dig. I'll try to replicate this bug, in the way you said.

TRUEMicah was talking about the same thing. It's not exactly possible to do that cleanly. All characters would end up being a single character, which would be A LOT harder to manage and then there'd be no way to actually choose them, besides the intro, which could be easily skipped. Yeah, it would be cool, but it's not really practical. Those characters who do have a tag system implemented are usually only with 1 other character. 2v2 and 3v3 isn't going to happen either. There's no enough screen real estate for that. PKMN B/W handle it by being 3D and all.... so yeah...

Well, all pokemons could be coded in a single character, and switch between pokemons with a variable (exactly like Juano16 did for his Mortal Kombat 2game, with all chars coded into one, for Shang Tsung especially). On the select screen, each different character would link to the same character, but in fact a different DEF file setting up the "pokemon choice variable" differently. However, I agree this way of doing things, as a collaboration with other people, is much harder to manage.
Pretty interesting concept nevertheless. Never been into Pokemon, so I can't comment much, but I like the system, that's for sure. :)

Oh yeah, well from a coding perspective, it's clear as day, :). From a functional standpoint, it's a bit foggy, XD. There's something about managing that, that makes me cringe. Question: Based on what you said, the select screen would be the same. So you'd choose one character. Then in game, how would you know who to switch to? I guess I could bring up a screen that pauses the game so you can choose a new character. Eh, I don't know. That's gonna be a crapload more of work.

For the record.
I broke Poke Man.. thats not the proper version, Sorry i didnt tell you alexei. My bad.
but .. its a VERY interesting concept for none pokemon character.
Im liking the stages so far.
the field stage looks good but the background grass perspective is off. the beach stage looks good, but I think on the left side instead of just going off into a beach/sudden end. just throw in a ocean or something?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: ferretsshadow on September 15, 2013, 04:42:02 am
yeah tried the uno tag after I suggested it and it destroyed the game where it was unplayable. an alternative I was thinking that would fix this is have a similiar system as the may beta released character but after but have a kill switch like some boss characters that after each pokemon dies it takes out some of the healthbar. so lets say 6 pokemon and one dies it takes out 1/6th. then put moral under the healthbar to make more sense. then to fix the different trainer aspect you can have the sprites for all the different kind of trainers you decide to have in game and give them their own grouping section in each pokemon, so when you switch to a different pokemon you don't switch the trainer as well
may example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4S2fnA5_iWs
of coarse that would only apply to the 2vs.2 + matches since I don't believe there's another way to select several pokemon unless it's a game of preset trainers with there own set of pokemon
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 15, 2013, 05:14:13 am
I hate to tell you this but the answer is No.
Please stop asking for a pokemon tag system or whatever you want to call it. Coding wise its very complicated and it would take more work than pleasure. It would kill the project for us.
Do you remember the days when pokemon were simple but awesome 1 on 1 matchs? none of that 2 on 2, or 3 on 3 stuff? Well thats what I had in mind, a 1 on 1 match.
And its going to stay that way, so PLEASE stop asking about a tag or 2on2 system.
We are not adding it.

I wasn't trying to push it so I apologize if it comes off that way, just trying to suggest work arounds but since you're not interested the game as is is just as good. although I must contradict the last statement. pokemon has always been a battle of multiple pokemon per trainer switching out in one on one fights switching between pokemon for the most effective against the types they are facing. a battle of strategy to be the best trainer and make it to the top while stopping any evil organizations that comes their way. it's the premise of the story, it has been since the old days and still is although all be it they now have it were multiple pokemon fight at the same time which I believe you are under the impression that that was what I was implying which it was not. I'm also not trying to get you to do this system since you don't want to put it in so don't take my following statement as such, but imagine the old days with your pkm blue/red and you got you're starter pokemon and made it all the way through the game beating mewtwo and all with just your starter in every fight... I don't know about everybody else but in the old days when pokemon first started it was unthinkable. although pokemon back then didn't have such badass fights as your game does lol xD

Will this be a community project in which anyone can submit their own and all you have to do is check them if they work? Will there be Female Trainers? How about Generic Trainers?

Well, you certainly make a valid point. That, I cannot deny. However, the general manageability will be thrown out the window if we go down that route. Personally, I like the idea, but I'd be the one coding it, lol. I'm not sure how it would work cleanly. If you'd like to continue talking about it, PM me. I don't want to mention it anymore unless it becomes a possibility.

Those other trainers would have to be sprited in the style of Red and Gold. We're limited by our resources. We can't sprite, neither one of us. Water pokemon would behave like Blastoise. They can be out of water for the most part, unless it's a fish or something. The limit is the amount of usable sprites that Johsr made. Yes, that's how collaboration will work. Do your best and follow the rules and after I review your work, we'll add it to the game, or send it back with feedback on things to fix, etc.

Excellent work, Ryon and Алексей! While certain Pokemon are OP (coughskarmorycough), overall the game is quite polished. I especially love that it involves some strategy, particularly with timing weak attacks to counter the enemy and follow up with a strong attack.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

The premise of Ryon's idea was that it be exactly like this. That it be different, instead of playing like the real thing.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on September 16, 2013, 05:26:33 am
If we made it like a regular mugen game, it would be just another mugen fighting game. If we made it like a real pokemon game, it was be turn this turn that.
By making it active time battle, we take some of the sluggish-ness out of pokemon and put it in a world where timing means everything, and 1 attack can make a difference.
For the record I forgot to mention this.
All Pokemon have there constants coded exactly like there lv100 counterparts, the best versions of it.
For instance. Blastoise his exact states in game is.
[Data] life = 362 attack = 291 defence = 328
Where as in normal mugen these stats would be crazy since everything is usually...
[Data] life = 1000 attack = 100 defence = 100
In this idea of mine, These numbers all work out perfectly, mugen does the math and it balances the game, incredibly.

Lickitung, sure! Follow the developer reference (I've updated and will have Ryon post later today) and then submit it to me via PM when you're done so I can review and give feedback. You could post it in this thread too, if you want.

We've been through this before... Also, there are only two trainer sheets that were usable. The others were not. If you submit a custom trainer sheet, we'll definitely add it to someone for sure, but it has to have all the same animations as the sheets we used.
We can still incorporate fan favorites. In some cases, we did already according to these comments. :P MAYBE in the future, but right now, we want to keep things simple and manageable. We knew we weren't going to be able to please everyone, but my goal was to bring Ryon's idea to life, because he really had something special here, in my opinion. If I can figure out some way to take what we have and "compile" it into a single character with that system in place (of switching), then it will be a lot more manageable and possible, but right now, you'll have to deal with the way it is. Don't think that a system like that is the easiest thing to do. It really isn't.
This game is very good, keep it up. Am I crazy to see one my favorite trio Haunter, Gengar and Gastly.
Just got a note, Mewtwo should have one of his attacks recover the default. Who has not caught Mewtwo in the games and recover erased the attack.
Thanks! At least one of them will be made (probably Gengar. I forget if there are sprites for him).

Hmm, well we're not using those trainer sprites. Primarily because they don't have the full animations we need to really make them worth putting in. If we were to use those trainers, they'd just stand there in their animated states. No attacking animation. No throwing animation. Not sure what we could do with them.
Skitty? Maybe... why, is it your favorite?

If that seems to be the only problem, I could probably easily enough do a simple animation for tossing the pokeball as well as pointing to attack. It'd be a good return from my spriting hiatus, and me and my Pokemon fanatic girlfriend are really enjoying following this project, so anything to help.

exactly a good spriter like the guy above would be needed so I figured it was worth showing in hopes you could find the artist needed. so glad you found one
lol yes I stopped watching/playing pokemon before that generation came out but seeing that cat dance around and *uck around all the time on tiv when my little brother watched it made it my favorite xD

Ah ok. Well what do you know, Chatman to the rescue! Thanks for the link.

Pretty sure those sprites are from B/W 2, it'd be nice if you can change the trainer sprite style to that, but it'd require extra sheeting though. EDIT: I might try spriting Ruby in that style though since he's not there, and will probably sheet him given enough time (Ruby is the guy from PKMN Emerald/Sapphire/Ruby I think..... in the manga anyway) or a custom character, no promises though since I'm busy.

Um... yeah. It says so on the site. I don't care what style it's in as long as it fits well with the other sprites.
Yeah, Joshr didn't make any female trainers in that style, so it's a "sausage fest" XD.

Alexei, Ryon, bros i'm loving this project, M.U.G.E.N needs this, i'm so hyped about this Lol! About the stages are you guys planning to make them Low-Res, cause i think the quality can be improved without clashing with the chars, btw did you guys find a stage coder yet, or are you guys gonna code everything.
Random: -Who's that Pokemon? (http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/dlh1231/chikorita.png)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 19, 2013, 04:21:29 pm
Yep. They're all low-res. Bound are all set to 0 to make things more simple. To be honest, the only reason why that was done like that is because the trainers have no run animations. If they did, then we could extend the bounds of each stage and have the characters run back to their locations after being moved from them. You know, if they're hit to a different part of the stage. As it stands now, the trainers would just float there, sliding on the ground.
We code the stages. We don't have a dedicated coder for that. No need honestly.
Lol, Chikorita is your favorite? Well I can't guarantee that he'll be in the next update (because he won't), but we'll be sure to make it eventually. :) Same goes with Skitty, @ferretshadow.

Silly idea, but if someone managed to make trainer sprites for Gen III trainers and above (Brendon, Lucas, etc.), would you assign the Pokémon from each Gen to that trainer? So Gen I Pokémon go with Red, Gen II go with Ethan, Gen III go with Brendon, etc.

It could happen, yes. Currently the left side shows Red and the right side shows Gold. Posted: September 22, 2013, 01:05:18 am
Thanks :D Posted: September 22, 2013, 03:51:37 am Since Venusaur is now done, I'm going to be moving on to Hitmontop.
Before the update is released, 7 (6 playable, 1 boss) characters will be added, screenpack will be updated in various places, and possibly some more mechanics like "Critical Hit" will be implemented.

Great select screen there man. Do you guys plan to order the pokemons by their numbers? Of course you don't exactly use all of them but, you can still give them the order that's included in the pokedex wich is listed in the games. İ like the results alot. Hitmontop is also a great choice to include.

Thanks)) We weren't planning on it, but it's a simple enough change. They're ordered chronologically by when we made them, I guess. :P Believe it or not, Hitmontop is done. I'm moving on to Lugia now. He's long overdue and will be the boss for this update.

Hi, heres the pokemon i decided to work with :) Got his stance and his get hit ready (http://i42.tinypic.com/2i9se8.gif)
Some ideas for his moveset:
Pay Day- I think this one is mandatory, could be his main projectile move, the coins could fly in several directions like in his Smash bros brawl apparition.
Feint- Low damage attack, but ignores defensive moves, it could be similar as Quilava´s Fast attack in terms of speed and recovery.
Night Slash- nice damage and fast performance, slower recovery
Hone Claws- The next attack after this one will be stronger
What do you think guys?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 22, 2013, 11:04:57 pm
Hmm, this is awkward... We posted this on Mugen Free For All as well. There, a user named MugoUrth chose to do Meowth as well. That's 100% my fault for not mentioning early. I apologize. Well, we can go about this in two ways:
1.) You continue to make your Meowth and we just pick the better of the two. (I'd rather not do this to the other user.) 2.) You pick a different character to make.
I like his move set. MugoUrth's is very similar, but he's got something different than Hone Claws. I like his stance too.
Again, sorry for that. To avoid any more confusion like this, I'll list out who's made/being made:
The first 7: Blastoise Electrode Quilava Mewtwo Skarmory Sandslash
The next 7 (to be release in the update): Pikachu Venusaur Hitmontop Lugia Ryhorn Beedrill ??? - Ryon hasn't decided what his next one will be yet.
User contributions: Meowth - MugoUrth from MFFA (still WIP). Lickitung - I think someone in this thread said they wanted to make him.

Ok, thanks for your understanding. :) You've assembled those from the parts on the sheet? Or they were already on the sheet? I'm guessing the former, but if that's true, well done. :) Thanks a lot. I'll be sending those to him shortly.
Try to pick something more unique in terms of types as well. While the currently released system doesn't have type effectiveness at all, the currently unreleased system does, and it's working very well. :) I was thinking of releasing the new common1.cns and updated Developer Reference to match, but the currently released characters don't have their types and aren't updated at all, so it wouldn't affect anything unless you (generally speaking) were making a character.

Stance ready:
(http://i39.tinypic.com/15dwe4m.gif)
Ideas for moves:
Poison Jab- His signature move, it has a low chance of poisoning.
Venoshock- Projectile move with average damage, damage increases if enemy is poisoned by Poison Jab or Poisong sting. (it doubles damage in the games, being the most powerfull poison move, but it may be to powerfull here i dunno)
Pursuit- Increased damage if the enemy his attacked while he is returning to his position
Poisong sting- Multy hit projectile, low damage but highter poisoning rate than Poison Jab
What do you think guys? I ask this to decide wich attacks to sprite :) To much poison attacks maybe
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TRUEMicah on September 23, 2013, 09:56:40 pm
Not bad but he has no defensive moves, thus leaving him pretty vulnerable IMO.

Beedrill already has Poison Jab, So you can look at him for move reference. or make it up yourself. Either way is good. Nice addition.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Sinnesloschen on September 24, 2013, 01:28:37 am
Could give it Brick Break or Karate Chop.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Daeron on September 24, 2013, 01:56:20 am
I think he cant learn Karate chop, but Brick Break sounds good to me, the thing is...
I really like venoshok and poison jab combination, it really makes you want to poison the enemy for the extra damage... and Pursuit is his fast attack, if i remplace Poison sting with Brick break he will only have one projectyle to defend himself against other projectyles, it all depends on how Venoshock will be code i guess.
Another thing, having 3 direct impact attacks, being Poison Jab the standart and Pursuit his fast attack, brick break would need to be different. Im thinking he could make a jump before landing with his fist on the enemy, that way he could jump over some projectyles.
Pursuit: (http://i44.tinypic.com/2nbcyhl.gif)

Yes! He's going to be as crazy as me by the end of this thing. XD

The moves for metronome could be like 1 caracteristic move from each type, just an idea.
btw i have decided to substitute Poisong sting for Brick Break: (http://i41.tinypic.com/2ez7bfa.gif) As i said before, when timed correctly it could jump over some attacks, and its a frog after all, should have something jump related IMO...

I never thought of doing it with Pokemon, though. You fucker! This is an amazing idea. I can't wait for this game to be complete. Do you have a roster planned already or are you open to suggestions? 'Cause Missingno. He needs some lovin'. As for that frog looking Pokemon...I have no idea who that is. Haven't touched the Pokemon games in a long time.

I enjoyed it a lot and the sprites are amazing but the A.I mostly always wins I think there should be some sort of (dodge timed mechanic ) to give you more of chance , because we might as well not even bother using some of the special attacks because they either take to long to charge back up or they barely do any damage , but it's an amazing game none the less nice to see someone use mugen in another different way.
demo rating - 8 out of 10 = one of better High quality mugen games out there , will be keeping in my collection and looking forward to any new updates , hope we can play as pikachu , starmie and mewtwo one day. :)

hehe i too picture Missingno as a hyper rare boss encounter, with his own sprite corrupted stage. His attacks could represent different glitches, and his life bar could stick out of the chart XD
Btw Liamx2000 you can always use some attacks to defend yourself or intercep the enemy, it all depends on the timing, just dont hit as soon as your ATB his full. :D
For example, Flamethrower from Quilava, doenst deal to much damage when the opponent is far, but you can use it to burn most of incoming projectyles attacks :)

Thanks! It's always nice to see feedback and people enjoying this. :) Yep, the AI is far from finished and currently selects a random move as soon as it can. I'm still contemplating on how I can make it better.
Pikachu will be in the next update for sure. Mewtwo is unplayable, but you could play as him by moving him to a selectable slot. Starmie... hmm. I think I'll make him eventually, but he won't be in the next update.
hehe i too picture Missingno as a hyper rare boss encounter, with his own sprite corrupted stage. His attacks could represent different glitches, and his life bar could stick out of the chart XD
Btw Liamx2000 you can always use some attacks to defend yourself or intercep the enemy, it all depends on the timing, just dont hit as soon as your ATB his full. :D
For example, Flamethrower from Quilava, doenst deal to much damage when the opponent is far, but you can use it to burn most of incoming projectyles attacks :)
Exactly, that's what I keep telling my brother (who I have test it randomly. :P) It's a strategy game. You (can but shouldn't) can't just attack as soon as you can. The AI does though, lol. One thing I've noticed and am going to try to fix everywhere is that some attacks that shouldn't be, can be done almost instantly. No startup time at all. Blastoise comes to mind.

Hey, question, what should I do as the scientist's win anim?
Right now I'm either thinking the chuckle I'm using as a base, or a horribly over exaggerated laugh ending with Sol's dragon install animation as the final laugh.

I'm thinking a chuckle that eases into a horribly exaggerated laugh and ends looping there. :D. Like, that insane laugh you see in Anime a lot.

Nope, just the walk animation for the pokemons to return to their standing space. Pursuit will remain as before, its a really fast attack to even bother with a complex sprite, it could use some purple afterimages to look cooler.

Sorry im not checking in on this topic as much. (Grand Theft Auto 5 has captured me)
But If I didnt mention it , Im working on Clefable, her attacks are done, need a bit of perfecting, and im working on Metronome. So... thats gonna be the hardest move I code for a while.
But once Clefable is done, and we tweak up the rest of the issues, you guys are gonna get a full update report... Its lengthy.

Neither Squirtle nor Gold fit in with the sprite style of the game (nor each other, for that matter). Squirtle's also too big.

At the moment stalled from what i can tell but its not really an issue. I've been working on Yamato, and Alexei has been busy as well.

Yeah, I'd say we're stalled for sure. During the weekdays, I don't have motivation to do anything but sleep and eat really. I try to kick it into high gear during the weekends, but even then I'm pooped. Trying to gain weight is a tough job. *sigh*
Anyways, we're not ready to release the update. There's still much to do before I'm happy with the way things are.

No, they're 100% custom by Joshr on The Spriter's Resource. The link is in the first post. Mew isn't in the game because no one has made him. It's as simple as that. We have Mewtwo. There's no reason to make him right off the bat. It's kind of redundant.

Such an Great Game needs time of course Guys. Rush is not needed and nobody can tell you two what to do. Motivation is a true thing as İ have talked to Ryon about this a while ago in general. We live in a world with too much new things around and motivation can slip/go from one to another. İf it has a connection to our health than yeah, rest, sleep and eating is all what matters for motivation. Keep it going You Guys.

Lots and lots of eating. :)
Since it's the weekend, I'll be trying to dedicate some time to this and get some things done, but first I have to complete this character I'm working on. It should be released either today or tomorrow, but I'm not saying who. XD

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on October 16, 2013, 02:43:35 am
Pokemon are chosen for the roster after fitting a certain criteria:
1.) Are the sprites acceptable? 2.) Hows the typing? Do we already have someone of this type? 3.) Can we make a unique moveset for it? 4.) Optionally, do we even like it?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on October 16, 2013, 04:37:59 pm
If people were to sprite X and Y Pokémon in this style, would they be added? Or would the lack of information surrounding them (stats, etc.) negate their chances?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on October 16, 2013, 05:16:14 pm
1st: That would be awesome! XD. But yeah, I'm not sure if we do have stats on them. If so, then I don't see a problem with it.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ricepigeon on October 16, 2013, 05:42:01 pm
People on Smogon have been calculating the base stats of the new pokemon and MEvos with some accuracy. Of course nothing is 100% confirmed until someone actually finds out how to crack the code for 3ds games, which is so far much harder to do than the pokemon games for the GBA and DS. But at this point I'd say that about 95% of the info regarding base stats on there is accurate.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on October 19, 2013, 12:41:32 am
The 3DS IS hard to crack.
Heck, nobody has managed to rip the raw music from Mario Kart 7 to this date.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on October 19, 2013, 02:20:52 am
Well, all we would really need are the basic stats and a list of learn-able moves. Either way, I don't see it happening any time soon.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Tortwag on January 01, 2014, 03:10:56 pm
I just realized that the move so far are not altered by types. For example My Quilava's flamethrower does almost nothing to Skarmory, which is outrageous to the Pokemon fan that I am, but I guess it would be difficult to code, wouldn't it... I got my sweet revenge with my Blastoise though (Fly? HA! *uses protect and counterattacks with Hydro Pump*).
Also, how can I change the training field music? Impossible to find it in the System/def :/
Anyways, besides that, everyone else already made all the necessary critics so far, so I'll try to make a Pokemon for this project as well. I kinda wanted Smeargle, but since he can learn pretty much anything, wouldn't be interesting... I'll find one eventually. This project looks awesome, plays awesome, and even though I don't really like the title music (that I changed, sorry, rock isn't my favorite style, ti depends on the music... I prefered that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbzvNS26t_k&hd=1), I must say everything looks pretty good.
Also, I'll try to make some trainers for the game too, because I would love to see a Mirror B trainer sprite. THAT would be an awesome addition.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 10, 2014, 04:12:12 pm
Ah, okay. EDIT: Okay, I have finished Togetic's third move now. It is Fly. And here is the movelist I planned for Togetic, just in case you wanna know: -Hyper Beam (will code next) -Facade (will code after Hyper Beam) -Fly (finished) -Metronome (will code after Facade) Now my question is: How does the game actually handle the statuses code-wise? Is there a special variable planned for that? I'm asking this because I need the information for Facade, which gets double power, whenever the user is burned, paralyzed or poisened.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on January 10, 2014, 11:43:41 pm
didn't the folder of the full game come with the DEVELOPER REFERENCE text file?
that file includes all the info you should need to know.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 11, 2014, 09:27:03 am
Nope, the Developer References text file was a seperate file. I have already read that, by the way, and I couldn't find any informations regarding special states like burned, poisened or paralyzed...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on January 11, 2014, 03:04:44 pm
I forget how alexei did it.
but those do exist. I forget... how and where.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 11, 2014, 07:26:56 pm
Okay, I have downloaded the newest beta, mainly because I was curious, how the statuses were handled, but also in order to add some improvements into Togetic. Well, this is what I have found in your Beedrill, which has got moves which cause poison:
Code:
;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Enemy Poison State [StateDef 543] movetype = H
[State 543, Set Burn Var] type = VarSet trigger1 = !ishelper var(4) = 3
[State 0, PalFX] type = PalFX trigger1 = !time time = 30 add = 0,-128,256 mul = 256,256,256 sinadd = 50,50,50,10 invertall = 0 color = 256
[State 543, Return To State] type = SelfState trigger1 = 1 value = 5000
And that code snippet was in Alexei's Quilava:
Code:
[StateDef 533] movetype = H
[State 533, Set Burn Var] type = VarSet trigger1 = !ishelper var(4) = 1
[State 533, Return To State] type = SelfState trigger1 = 1 value = 5000
So appearantly, var(4) handles the special states. This is, what I have gathered so far: var(4)=0: no status var(4)=1: burn var(4)=2: paralyze var(4)=3: poison I guess that should be enough for Facade... ...in other news, Hyper Beam has been finished and Fly has been partially updated to the new standards. EDIT1: I also have noticed that Clefable has got Metronome with a few attacks. I will probably do the same thing, but I use different moves for Togetic's Metronome in order to set him apart from other Metronome users. EDIT2: After some more testing, I found out that the Pokemon cannot move while having a status effect, so there goes Facade...I would like it, if someone could suggest me a good substitute... ...in other news, I already gathered a a small list of moves, which Togetic can use through Metronome. It isn't finished yet, but I already have decided that it will be one move from every type. Question marks mean that I haven't decided on a move from that type. Anyway, here is the list: Substitute (Normal) Ember (Fire) Whirlpool (Water) Bullet Seed (Grass) ??? (Bug) Aurora Beam (Ice) Thunder Shock (Electritrc) Sky Uppercut (Fighting) Rock Throw (Rock) Earth Quake(Ground) Wing Attack (Flying) Sludge Bomb (Poison) ???

EDIT2: After some more testing, I found out that the Pokemon cannot move while having a status effect
I'm just a bit curious by your statement here. The only status effect that really prevents movement is Paralysis, which has a 10% chance. If the enemy is burned, they are still able to perform moves and such, but get burned at the end of their "turn." Same goes for poison.

Okay, ignore my previous statement. I now tested it again, and this time, for a bit longer, and you're right! Which means that Facade can stay (yay). Also, just in case someone missed this:
In other news, I already gathered a a small list of moves, which Togetic can use through Metronome. It isn't finished yet, but I already have decided that it will be one move from every type. Question marks mean that I haven't decided on a move from that type, so I would like your opinion that. Anyway, here is the list: Substitute (Normal) Ember (Fire) Whirlpool (Water) Bullet Seed (Grass) ??? (Bug) Aurora Beam (Ice) Thunder Shock (Electritrc) Sky Uppercut (Fighting) Rock Throw (Rock) Earth Quake(Ground) Wing Attack (Flying) Sludge Bomb (Poison) ???

Good that you are here DJ_HannibalRoyce. I would be really glad, if you could send me your Shadow Sneak sprites... Posted: January 12, 2014, 03:23:14 pm Okay, I think I got a problem now:
Code:
;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ;Unique Winpose [Statedef 181] type = S ctrl = 0 anim = 181 velset = 0,0
[State 181, 1] type = NotHitBy trigger1 = 1 value = SCA time = 1
[State 181, Jump] type = velset trigger1 = animelem = 2 y = const(velocity.jump.y)
[State 181, Gravity] type = StateTypeSet trigger1 = animelem = 2 physics = A
[State 181, Loop] type = ChangeAnim ;trigger1 = animelem = 3 trigger1 = Pos Y >= 0 && Vel Y > 0 value = 181
[State 181, Persist Round] type = AssertSpecial trigger1 = time<=100 flag = roundnotover ignorehitpause = 1
[State 181, Pokemon Cry] type = PlaySnd trigger1 = !time value = 11,0
Everything works fine. The only part, which is not working, is the ChangeAnim part. What do I do wrong?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Ryon on January 12, 2014, 03:41:17 pm
Physics = A
when that is in, mugen will ignore your changestate pos and vel y's.
and automatically set them to jump land.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 12, 2014, 03:47:28 pm
It's meant to be used to trigger a ChangeState; to your land state.
But I don't want to trigger a land state, I want to loop the animation as soon as Togetic lands...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on January 12, 2014, 04:26:42 pm
For that, you could do something like:
Code:
[State ****, Gravity] type = Gravity trigger1 = pos y < 0
[State ****, Prevent going through floor] type = PosSet trigger1 = pos y > 0 y = 0
[State ****, ChangeAnim] type = ChangeAnim trigger1 = pos y=0 && anim!=#### && time>5 ; Where 5 is a time to offset the change, to allow for the jump, or it might change the anim too fast. value = ####
There's almost always a way. :P
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 12, 2014, 04:38:46 pm
It almost works now. Togetic's animation does change back to 181 now, but he still doesn't jump a second time. I am getting the feeling this is because of the time trigger not resetting to 0 when the animation changes back to 181...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on January 12, 2014, 09:56:05 pm
Just thought I'd mention something.
Clefable's stats are wrong. I'm not sure where you got the values from. -Life is 416, should be 394 -Attack is 306, should be 262 -Defence is 394, should be 269
Also, shouldn't you get the stat from the best offensive/defensive stat? Something with no Attack but great Sp. Attack isn't going to do so well in this game. Same thing with non-evolved Pokémon (minus Scyther). They're going to be inferior to fully-evolved Pokémon.

Yes, I completely agree with you. I'll make those changes to our existing characters so they'll be ready for the next release.
Posted: January 12, 2014, 11:17:23 pm Though, what do you suggest we do about non-evolved pokemon? For Pikachu, I made him quick and gave him hard-to-dodge moves such as Thunder. He also has the ability to Paralyze the enemy which can turn the tables pretty easily.

its just a random value we decide on (sorta systemically) based on the damage output of the move. and how long we think it should take to recharge to keep fairness.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on January 13, 2014, 06:29:01 pm
You want him to jump a second time? Well, your trigger for the jump is "AnimElem=3." I kinda thought you had it figured out because you said this:
I am getting the feeling this is because of the time trigger not resetting to 0 when the animation changes back to 181...
Well yeah, but figuring out the source of the problem is only the first part of the deal. I still need to figure out, how I could reset the time trigger to 0...any ideas?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on January 13, 2014, 07:07:39 pm
You don't reset time in a state unless you move from that state to another one, and come back to it. Regardless, you can simply have two different triggers for that, both using time if you prefer.
Code:
trigger1 = !time || time=130 ; At time 0 or time 130
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on January 13, 2014, 07:14:20 pm
Okay, I tried it. It could work, but Togetic gets stuck a bit below the ground, and thus, he cannot really jump again...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Ok, since this isn't going to be as simple, open up a thread in the Dev Help section so we can continue there and stop clogging up this thread... even if it is kind of related. I can look into this further when I get home in about five hours.

It's pretty damn outdated, that pic. Also, Togetic does not have KFM moves. After all, he's not KFM. He has got the following moveset: -Hyper Beam (100% complete) -Facade (50% complete) -Fly (100% complete) -Metronome (0% complete) Also, I wont put a download link, until every move is finished, the winpose bug is fixed and all the placeholder sprites (like the menu with the KFM moves) is replaced. Please be patient there.

I know that this game is just Pokemon based but, what about a few joke/parody characters from different series wich are hidden?
They could be mistaken as Pokemons.
- Chaotsu from Dragonball Z The abdridged series is pretty populair with the line where Nappa is calling Chaotsu a Pokemon)
- Tony Tony Chopper from One Piece. A talking rendeer wich uses devil fruit powers. He could be the next talking one next to Meowth.

Don't worry, I will only plan the system of Metronome. However, I actually want to add different attacks, in order to differentiate my Togetic from your Clefable even more.

I was thinking he could have: -Stealth Rock (functions like Spikes, but can do the whole Super-effective/not very effective thing) -Bite -Ancient Power -Dragon Tail (wall bounce, seeing as switching out isn't possible :P)
Seem good enough?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on January 26, 2014, 07:48:52 pm
Yep, though I think you might have some issues with Stealth Rock. The super-effectiveness of a move is determined by its type and the type of the target. On top of that, the logic is in the core of the game and shouldn't simply be overridden.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Omega on January 28, 2014, 07:09:35 pm
He will be a great fossil Pokemon for the game. If Stealth Rock is going to be a problem, he could maybe use Stone Edge or Rock Slide instead of that.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

His move fly should be a bit different too since he has smaller wings. He should float faster in the sky before he attacks in game.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on February 02, 2014, 07:49:27 pm
Well, I already did it like that, so Togetic flys faster to the aerial spot. It was originally just the result of his flying up animation being different from Skarmory's flying up animation, in other words, not intertional. However, the more I use Togetic's Fly, the more I was sure that what I have done was right, so I labeled something unintentional as intentional, and voila.

Sorry, that I necrobump, but Ryon allowed me to keep the project (and thus, this thread) alive, while he takes a break. I also have some actual progress there. Anyway, I have good news and bad news. The good news:
Thanks to the great spriter Rai Tei, I finally have the sprites for the powered up Facade now. I also have almost finished the coding. But now, the bad news: There is a problem with that attack. If Togetic lands from that powered up Facade, he doesn't use my custom landing, although the code SHOULD do that, but instead, the generic landing from Fly... BTW, here is the code:
Code:
[Statedef 516] type = S movetype= A physics = N juggle = 4 poweradd= 60 velset = 0,0 anim = 516 ctrl = 0 sprpriority = 2
[State 510, RE] type = removeExplod trigger1 = time = 0 id = 518
[State 510, 1] type = PlaySnd trigger1 = AnimElem = 4 value = 520, 1
[State 500, VelSet] type = VelSet trigger1 = AnimElem = 4 x = 14 y = -3
[State 500, Gravity] type = Gravity trigger1 = pos y<0
[State 522, Land State] type = ChangeState trigger1 = -vel y<pos y value = 517 ignorehitpause = 1

The hands are just subby things. They're easy to animate, whether you want to do it through a sprite rotator or in Paint. Paint has a nice bendy line tool thing that works great for these sorts of things. See my avatar? The spines on his head were animated that way ;)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on May 03, 2014, 06:07:09 pm
Well, thanks. However, I already dicided to do the classical way of editing the arms pixel by pixel, since I don't really trust in the sprite rotate function that often...

Well, I have nothing against expanding it, but every expansion will count as an update. So the next version is called Super Project Catch'Em All, and after that, we would get Hyper Project Catch'Em All, and after that we would get Ultra Project Catch'Em All, which would then have a POKéMON, that only appeared in the mangas and was never playable before and that fans will be hype for. Nah, just kidding. Ryon is the boss, so it is up to him.

i think you should make a helper spawn inplace of the pkmn, and have it jump back.
make sure the helper's type is player, as much as its deprecated i think its nessesary to work for this.

Yes, is too difficult, the source sprites have a perspective from the top view. But are some tries to masterize it, I'll try to lower the background perspective. All the rips from the game are different and is harder to get a standard view.

Lapras is released! It's published here because it's not ready to be fully released on my site, and so my topic hasn't been updated with this. Please test, tell me every bug, and enjoy!
Concerning the system, there are lots of things you need to update the system with:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. You need a type modifier for attacks that shouldn't affect the opposing type. For example, Electric can beat a Ground type when they shouldn't, without using anything but Electric moves.
In addition, you must reduce the amount of hits/helpers for the characters with clashing attacks, or the type modifier won't work properly. For example, you can hit anyone with Bubblebeam while dealing maximum damage all the time, since the system cannot divide the damage by half as each hit deals 1 damage.
2. You need to reduce the number of enemies you fight on Arcade mode. Assuming you fill out all potential spaces, the amount of battles to win arcade mode in single player is a whopping 91! Team matches would halve this number, but it's still too much to go through. 14 battles would be good enough, assuming you follow the plot of fighting for the badges, then the elite four and champion, then the legendary pokemon.
3. The Developer Reference doesn't tell you about a very important piece of code, among others: The Reset Attack Multiplier.
You must tell people to never leave any of your pokemon's attack states with a movetype that isn't "A". Doing so will cause this piece of code to reset the attack's type, turning it into an attack that hits anything regardless of type.
4. There is also a plethora of problems with Paralysis, as most pokemon that have this can still perform their attack, with the following (but not limited to) weird effects:
1. When Beedrill tries to use Spikes while Paralysed, the paralysis kicks in right after he launches a spike. 2. With Venusaur and Solarbeam, the beam charging animation carries on even after paralysis. 3. With Sandslash and Dig, the hole is left behind before fading normally.

Hey, thanks for taking the time to make something for the game. You'd be the first to make something complete. :) I haven't tested it yet, but will give you feedback.

1. You need a type modifier for attacks that shouldn't affect the opposing type. For example, Electric can beat a Ground type when they shouldn't, without using anything but Electric moves.
You do realize that would render you 100% useless against a ground type. Things were considered for the game. We can't be 100% accurate to the original games. It would just be unfair then.

Yes, I agree. It was in no way done. We took a concept, I brought it to life, and saw what the response was. So, yeah, it was just a beta/demo of our idea. :P I'm pretty sure we didn't even take a look at that section, lol.

Why would you be making an attacking move without movetype=A? HitDefs wouldn't work without movetype=A. Even if it's a move like bubblebeam, where helpers are spawned that do damage, why would you make the root movetype=I? It doesn't help anything in this case, because they can't guard. I guess I just thought it was common sense.

Paralysis is a random effect, because again, it would be majorly unfair if it interrupting you every turn, for the remainder of the fight. Thanks for the feedback on those things. They'll be fixed in our next update. Though, I can't say when that will be. We haven't been working on it really. Life issues and whatnot.
Edit: Lapras Feedback: - The select small portrait looks misaligned. This happens if there's no padding at the top of the image. See how the other portraits are. They're not aligned at pos 0,0. - I think the ATB on Surf should be a lot higher and the startup time, lower by a bit. - Surf can take out Quilava in one hit. Poor Quilava, lol. That's not a bug, but an observation. - Body Slam is interesting, but I think it could do without the Ice Beam before it. The effects are just kind of awkward. On top of that, the freeze doesn't even freeze them or do any extra damage. Just remove it entirely. - Freeze-Dry's Ice Effect (the spreading one), should use Additive transparency (add) instead of none. The black border is kind of off-putting. - I like trainer palette for the shiny palette, but I think it could be used for each palette. - Sing is nice, but I think it's too slow. I can't seem to make any use of it. I get interrupted almost immediately. My go-to moves are usually Surf and Body Slam.

Replying to System Feedback:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. Although I did think of this, and had thought of switching pokemon by losing the match and going back on the Select Screen, it might be an inconvenience to people playing their go-to character. You could bother with putting them in the same "Not Very Effective" typing as other types with a normal match-up as an alternative.
2. [Developer Reference]: I had brought this up because, while testing surf, I had found my attack to be treated as a pseudo "???" type instead of Water just from the Movetype not being "A", and had a hell of a time trying to find out what's wrong. Someone could make the mistake of doing this, which is why I wouldn't blame them at all if they weren't told of this.
In addition, the following characters suffer from this problem, although much of it is them leaving their attack states too fast for the attack to end:
A. Sandslash's Dig stops being a Ground type after it stays underground after digging. Affects the attack part as well. B. Scyther's Razor Wind stops being a Normal type right before flinging projectiles. C. Skarmory's Fly doesn't have a type at all. Same goes for Pikachu's Thunder Wave (although redundant). D. Electrode's Rollout is treated as a Normal type throughout the attack, instead of a rock type. E. Beedrill's Pin Missile stops being a Bug type right after being hit by two of the six projectiles. F. Ryhorn's Rock Blast stops being a Rock type right before the last hit of the five projectiles, as well as his Stone Edge stops being a Rock type right after two hits of the entire move. G. Venusaur's Razor Leaf and Solarbeam stops being a Grass type at the last few hits of both moves. This goes for Clefable's Metronome on Bubblebeam, Flamethrower, and Stone Edge.
I found all this out because Lapras has a variable for debugging purposes that tells which type the opponent is currently attacking with. (In Debug Mode, it's the second number of Lapras' character)
Replying to Lapras Feedback:
1. The select screen portrait isn't aligned at 0,0, it's cropped to minimize space usage. I tried to use other characters as a reference for that. I've now moved it from -5,-5 to -4,-7. 2. Fixed. 4. Fixed. 5. Fixed. 6. What do you mean by this? Palettes 1-3 are standard for the trainer, but if you mean a shiny palette for the trainer as well, it's included in this update. 7. Fixed.
One oversight I forgot to fix is the "Critical!" lettering being reversed for p2's side. It's done now.
Redownload for changes. Expect Blissey to come soon, as it should've been released before Lapras, but had a problem with Nurse Joy's custom sprites.

Or now Lapras' Surf against Quilava. Haha. You're absolutely right. That's what we get for using semi-accurate stats. However, the difference between "non-effectives" and one-hit KO's are that you "might" have the chance to fight back and interrupt depending on who you are. Of course, you could just be too slow or unlucky and get the raw end of the deal. :D

So, I really like what you've done with Honchkrow, but I'm kind of wondering why you put in immunities. It's not right and too cheap in my opinion, even if it's accurate. Uproar is my goto move with him. It's crazy OP.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on August 30, 2014, 01:18:28 am
I bother with immunities to try and make up for the lack of things in the system, like Pokemon with two types. It also helps Honchkrow and Shedinja, as the former can be described as a glass cannon, while Shedinja is too fragile to be considered for normal play. I can remove this if you want though, as it may be too early to consider adding immunities that aren't ability-based.

Well the system could use some work as it's far from perfect, but that's one thing I'm against. Mainly because it's unfair. It's nice that it's source-accurate, but seeing how you only have one pokemon, it would be really unfair. Having that said, I really do like your ideas otherwise. The status marker on the lifebars is a good touch and the critical indicator. These could be things for the next release whenever that might be. I'm not actively working on it, nor is Ryon sadly.

Post by: PlasmoidThunder on August 30, 2014, 11:05:45 am
I personally think weaker Pokémon should have their ATB bars fill up quicker (like Shedinja does, though perhaps not to such an extent), while more powerful Pokémon have their bars fill up slower. The boss Pokémon wouldn't need to follow this rule because they're bosses.

Yeah, there's go to be some reason why you'd want to pick a weaker pokemon. We really didn't want to make them feel useless. Pikachu was tough, but actually does have one heavy-hitting attack.

Kill-Bill teaches us how to punch through wood, but this pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html) will teach you how to pulverize concrete!
Updates: Honchkrow gets a better drill sprite for its Drill Peck attack. And due to some player concerns, I've gotten rid of immunities from Honchkrow. This also includes immunities gained from Abilities, although the likes of Water Absorb, Volt Absorb, Flash Fire, and others will stay as the pokemon who have these are also resistant to the types those abilities protects them from. I can always change it back to being fully protected though, should the project shift into another direction.
All other pokemon have the wrong alignment on their names for p2's side, and so have been updated. Also, for people who unofficially use Turns mode, I have fixed the lifebar and attack menu issues regarding player 1's side.
Engine Fix
I have modified and fixed the code to display the life bars. There was a problem that only affected players in Turns mode, although you won't be able to access it without directly modifying the system files. This is so that people who unofficially use Turns mode to simulate having up to 4 pokemon in the party can do so without any graphical problems.
The problem was that if Player 1 was defeated in battle at any time, the lifebar won't show up when the next pokemon arrives, and the green/blue bars and character name/portrait will be shown in the wrong position. As the code was made to have a specific player (and not just Player 1) spawn the lifebars, they will not appear if the player's ID do not match.
example:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
(http://i.imgur.com/MA0fXt6.png)
This code fixes it by changing the triggers from [root,ID=56] to [teamside=1]. To implement this in any past and future characters, you need the entire lifebar code, which is [StateDef 15000], and put this anywhere in your code files, but not in statedef -3. The engine coder could also just paste & replace this in common1.cns to fix all characters directly using it.
[State 15000, ATB Guage Full Sound] type = PlaySnd trigger1 = root,var(1)=root,var(0) && !var(10) && roundstate=2 trigger1 = var(10):=1 value = F15000,0
[State 15000, ATB Guage Full Sound Reset] type = VarSet trigger1 = root,var(1)!=root,var(0) var(10) = 0
[State 15000, Set Pos Of BG] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(15000) ID = 15000 postype = left pos = 160,120 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 15000, Set HP Guage Values] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(15001) ID = 15001 postype = left ;pos = 143+(34*(root,ID!=56)),217 pos = 143+(34*(root,teamside != 1)),217 scale = cond(root,lifemax, (fvar(0)/(root,lifemax*1.0))*.5, .5), .5 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 15000, Set ATB Gauge Values] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(15002) ID = 15002 postype = left ;pos = 143+(34*(root,ID!=56)),226 pos = 143+(34*(root,teamside != 1)),226 scale = cond(root,var(0), (root,var(1)/(root,var(0)*1.0))*.5, .5), .5 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 15000, Set ATB Gauge Glow Position] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(15003) ID = 15003 postype = left ;pos = 143+(34*(root,ID!=56)),226 pos = 143+(34*(root,teamside != 1)),226 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 15000, Place Portrait] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(9000) ID = 9000 postype = left pos = 11+(298*(root,teamside != 1)),211 ;pos = 11+(298*(root,ID!=56)),211 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 15000, Place Name] type = ModifyExplod trigger1 = NumExplod(15004) ID = 15004 postype = left ;pos = 47+(227*(root,ID!=56)), 210 pos = 47+(227*(root,teamside != 1)), 210 ignorehitpause = 1
This fix is easy to implement, but is only needed for Turns mode. This problem also happens with the Attack Menu [StateDef 13000+], which I have also fixed. It's in the same code as the lifebar one.

I'm going to test our Hitmonchan and get back to you with some feedback. Thanks once more for your contributions to the project. Could you send me your fix in a .txt file? The line numbers are completely messing it up. I wouldn't care if there weren't almost 400 lines, lol, but it's a bit much. I'll implement it into the common1.cns. Turns was not a mode that was intended for the game, so naturally, nothing was coded with it in mind. We don't support Simultaneous mode either for this game.
I'm curious about one thing you said:

In your opinion, what direction would the project shift into to allow immunities to be fair?

I've uploaded the fix to the code to my FTP on the website. Get the link here: http://txpotstuff.t15.org/fix%20code.txt
In your opinion, what direction would the project shift into to allow immunities to be fair?
My direction of this would've been :
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
A system that dealt with resistances to certain types, but still keep the pokemon's types in check. For example, while Poison-types will be immune to poison attacks, Ground and Rock types will only be 50% resistant to both the attack and the poison status. This would've been done using about 3 variables, but I remember doing this with a Mugen full game I have (Ninja Saga - The Battle Game), and it's extremely long to code it. PM me if you want the game, even though it's very unfinished and will be ported to an engine that supports a higher helper limit.
Let's not forget that there are some that will try to code in their own immunities like I did for the purpose of the Pokemon Community instead of this game in mind.
But don't bother with this. With the way it is now, it's very good, and I don't want you to derail the game over some resistances.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 01, 2014, 11:32:49 pm
Thanks for the upload. I've implemented the fix.
Well, the way I see immunnities being fair is if at least every character had one move offensive that wasn't the same type as their others. Then, at least you could still fight back with something if you did fight a Pokemon that was immune to your attacks. So, maybe it will be implemented one day. Yeah, I can imagine that system of resistances is very complex.
Off topic: Which engine were you planning on porting your game over to?

Excellent! Three more to test out. I'll do so later today and provide you with some feedback.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 23, 2014, 03:48:09 am
Okay, I finally got to test them out. The only thing I noticed that was wrong was some graphical issues:
Castform: - The Weather Ball water splash has a shadow that's ugly in my opinion. - The Rain looks really bad. Is there a better effect you could use?
Magcargo: - The Lava Plume effect has a shadow as well.
In terms of gameplay, I really like how they all play. Castform is almost too OP with his type-changing abilities. You executed it well. Weather Ball in water form destroys the fire types lol. Maybe the ATB on Weather Ball should be increased by a bit. It's almost spammable. Magcargo is another great addition. I like his utility, but am confused as to what your version of Smokescreen does. I didn't look at the code, but I know that it's supposed to lower the enemy's accuracy. Does it do the same? Each time I used it, I got hit. Maybe it has a really low chance of making the enemy miss? Shuckle is good too, but I think Struggle Bug is a bit too useless. Seeing how he has to walk all the way back and it doesn't do much damage, maybe this could be replaced with a different move or possibly decrease the ATB on it?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on September 23, 2014, 10:14:14 pm
Castform/Magcargo: Got rid of the shadow effects. Magcargo's Smokescreen now has sound to go with it. As for Castform's Rain effects, I will try and make something to represent rain better. I have increased Weather Ball's ATB as well so it takes longer to get the next turn. In addition, I've noticed Castform's Shiny Palette is non-existent, so I've included it in as well.
Magcargo's Smokescreen gives him the ability to dodge attacks for 3 turns. You will initially dodge 100% of the time when you activate it, and then it has a 30% chance of activating on the entire turn for each turn you take. It always deactivates after each move before the chance of getting it again, but if you try to wait out your opponent's attacks by not taking a turn, it automatically deactivates after 5 seconds without cancelling the smoke effect, so you have to take a turn to get the chance of dodging attacks. You also cannot "renew" the effect by using Smokescreen again while it's active.
Shuckle's Struggle Bug is now modified. The shell-spinning will come out faster, will roll again after hitting the side of the screen, and he will be able to return to his position much quicker after using it.
Out of the lot, only Castform hasn't been updated with the changes yet. On an off-topic note, has Togetic been released yet?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 23, 2014, 10:50:45 pm
Sounds good. I'll try out the Smokescreen again.
I don't think one has been released, but Trinitronity has one in development.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: TrinitroRoy on September 24, 2014, 05:05:53 pm
Yes. Yes, I do. And only Metronome is left. After that, every attack is finished coding wise and animation wise (Powered Up Facade is sadly STILL missing a sound). After that, I'll take dibs on Ampharos before starting to code every Eeveelution, that is not Sylveon.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 26, 2014, 03:10:34 pm
We don't because there are no other sprites. Neither Ryon nor myself are spriters in the least, so we used what we could.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: MadkaT on September 27, 2014, 07:37:00 pm
Maybe you could release a sheet with the required sprites for the trainers, it would be interesting, some people could help creating sheets with that. :)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 27, 2014, 10:00:31 pm
Sure, no problem. The sprites, like the Pokemon sprites we used are from the same guy: JoshR691.
Ryon and I wanted to make sprite versions of ourselves as trainers, lol. We never got around to it, but hey, you never know. I've been forced to do spriting for NZCR, so maybe my skills will get good enough to do this? :P

As far I can see, this style would be easy for me. I remember that I've tried to do something for the trainers. But I haven't found the old archive,
In the last hour I was trying Brendan. I only have the head, but the body would not be so hard.

Yes, fortunately the autor hace sliced the pieces and that make more easy the edition :P
The full sheet has the following things:
- Changed the head in all frames. - Changed the main color of pants and shoes.
What's left?
- The torso, is the most detailed part :lipsrsealed2: - The yellow line below the shirt - The yellow zone in the pants - Coloring the arms and hands to simulate the jacket and gloves

Nice! Also, I should mention that you can feel free to use any pokeball you want, though Master Ball should be reserved for special trainers. :P

I think he could use a Ultraball, it fits with the clothes colors :P

Okay, I have finished Rock Throw, Ember, Bullet Seed, Aurora Beam, Sky Uppercut and Earth Quake for Togetic's Metronome, and I have now started to work on Shadow Sneak for Togetic's Metronome (thanks goes to DJ_HannibalRoyce for the Shadow Sneak effects). Screenshots will come, as soon as I have finished half of the Metronome attacks.
Looks good, MadkaT (commenting picture below my post)

I don't think the trainer sprites fit very well with the style for Pokemon. At least, this is my idea of how to make it look more like the DS games with a bit less shading and not going inside the edges of outlines.
(http://i.imgur.com/l2da5UY.png)
He is a bit shorter and stockier than how Red appears in Heart Gold, though. I also have my qualms with the animations but that's another thing (like an over-animated toss for a pokeball that falls to the floor a foot away)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 28, 2014, 08:54:29 pm
Yeah, I know what you mean about the throw animation. Also, the arms feel too bendy and noodly in JoshR's animation.

Yeah the throwing pokeball anim is a bit weird, but is the only that we have until this moment. :P It would be fixed later, (I think so) and now the big question is: Can anyone make a girl template? As far I can see, the male base is enough to add some new faces, but what about the girls?
In other news :P there is a stage based on the Fire Red intro: (http://i.imgur.com/pnHCqvI.png)

I don't see how the pokemon world can still survive when this pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html) is eating tons of food each week. It is ridiculous to say the least.
Rubbing another person's cheeks with your own is not advised (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html). In addition to being an inconvenience, it could be like rubbing your face on rubber!
Updates: Due to previous comments about abilities, I've realised that in certain conditions, many characters wouldn't be able to deal enough damage, including Pikachu against Pachirisu. So I've decided to set abilities so that they only work in STAB mode (palette 4-6). In addition, the pokemon's box portraits are not from the updated versions of the games, as some use the sprites from generation 3. Both previous and newer characters have been updated to those changes.
The Mediafire folder updates will come soon.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Алексей on September 29, 2014, 11:30:17 pm
Nice, another two great additions to the game. I just tested them both out.
Snorlax is what I was expecting, but even better, you got a chuckle out of me with the sound effects you used. :) Nice job on that. He's pretty much a powerhouse and I like how Rest doesn't recover all of your life. It's really risky. I tried it against Mewtwo and he killed me because the ATB recovers so slowly. Nothing I would try to rely on, but good for some characters who are slower than Mewtwo.
Now for Pachirisu, I like the moves you gave him, but am confused about Return. I read the readme and it says that you do a high amount of damage due to the affection towards your trainer. Is there anything more to this or is it just flat damage, like a normal attack? I haven't tried the STAB palettes yet, but I feel like there's got to be some way to make the weaker ones like Pikachu worth using. Paralysis is random, so it can only get you so far, unfortunately.
There was some talk of allowing teams of Pokemon to fight, as they should be, but the implementation is rather troublesome. The idea was either have set groups of pokemon in each trainer (3 per trainer), or we allow you to select from all (but the legendaries) on each battle screen. Either one of these would be annoying in some way. 3-per trainer has the limits of picking a team, while made sure to be well balanced, it's limiting of your possibilities. The latter option is far more in depth and would let you choose, but that would be annoying too... especially, as the number of allowed pokemon increases. Also, doing it this way would require a chunk of the system to be recoded. That's not too bad I guess, since the other would require chunking three characters into one with one trainer.

I noticed that some of your (Txpot) characters use either the new menu icons or the old ones (I'm not sure if that's what you were addressing when you said "box portraits"). The bundled characters for this game use the old menu icons, but that could be because X and Y weren't out at the time and I'm not sure if Alexei or Ryon plan to update them accordingly sometime in the future. At the moment it just seems a little inconsistent, is all.
Snorlax is a tiny fellow :P

Return does a flat 102 damage. I assumed that every pokemon trainer should have befriended the pokemon to the point of even using them as living vehicles, so I didn't bother with coding it based on friendship. The same will go for Frustration, although it can be changed to vary depending on how the battle progresses, like it dealing more damage the more times the opponent has hit you.
There was some talk of allowing teams of Pokemon to fight, as they should be, but the implementation is rather troublesome. The idea was either have set groups of pokemon in each trainer (3 per trainer), or we allow you to select from all (but the legendaries) on each battle screen.
As for the team-based battles, I would not bother with that at all. It is unique and a lot less like the pokemon you know from the turn-based games, and I'm happy with it as it is now; lose a battle and you can either switch characters, pick the same one and try again, or retry Arcade Mode. I admit that I could see the team system working, but there are too many posibilities to think of that would ruin it.
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
For example, people won't be able to choose their favourite pokemon with their preferred moves with the "3 pokemon per trainer" route, and the "choose from all available pokemon before battle" route is way too much time to code, with bugs and limited variables and helpers per fight due to engine limitations. If you were to do either of those things to change the system, you would also need to code another system that handles switching characters in the heat of battle, and assuming you can only do that through some turn-based code, it'll be like a limited version of the original game which the pokemon community will find fault in. You probably won't like the end result either as it destroys some of the strategy of overcoming opponents through timing, brute force, or just plain cheapness.

I had meant the Menu Icons. I refered them to Box portraits as those were where I recognised them from. They should be consistant as of now, as I got them from here: http://www.psypokes.com/dex/psydex/212/general

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. Alright, it will be left as is. Though to be fair, I don't really care if I have to recode some things. I wouldn't mind giving the game that extra edge where you get to choose out of all of the available pokemon, but the problem with that is that all pokemon would be fused into one character. Again, this isn't really THAT much of a problem, but it means that future installments and releases would require manual setup by me. Also, the switch could be on a cooldown timer, so you can't really spam it. It's just speculation and stuff to think about for the future. I think the latter option could work and really well. I plan on getting back to this after NZCR. As for Ryon, I don't know. I'll have to poke him. One thing I know is that he is personally against 3 set pokemon and I don't blame him.

You don't have to leave it as it is due to my comment, but you'll at least tell Ryon about this. He may like or dislike the suggestions, but at least there's time to change everyone to a new standard.
You might as well work continuously on NZCR, and take your time with this project, as there's still quite a lot of characters to fill the roster as well as things to be considered. Not that I'm rushing to fill them or anything, as I'm considering making stages for the game too. I don't want to get complained at for hogging all the better pokemon you know!

Oh yeah, NZCR is my priority. You know, I was thinking, how would you like to become a part of the dev team for PCEA? You're our #1 contributor and it seems like you really are into this project. Don't worry either, I won't let the project die. :)

I wouldn't mind being part of the Development Team for this project, but I wouldn't know where to begin or what to do. Maybe you can fill me in by a PM or something.
As for stages, is there some sort of sprite standard to follow? I've noticed that most of the stages seem to stick with the Pokemon style of simple colours and bright sprite styles.

Great to hear! I have to set some things up first. At first the dev team was only Ryon and myself, but I'm going to move the project to my BitBucket account and give you instructions on the development process that is most suited for a situation like ours. I'll be providing this to you via PM today after work. I wrote up a tutorial (that might need slight revising) for my Beta Testers in NZCR who use the same thing. It should be fine, but do you have any experience with using Git? It's okay if you don't. The tutorial I wrote will cover it. It just helps if you already know it. :P
As far as stages go, there is no real standard other than keep it simple. Nothing really too elaborate. Actually, a lot of the stages need top bound fixes and other things.

Well alright, but it's going to get really technical, lol XD. As long as that doesn't bother you then I say it's fine.
Both you and TxPot should look at this and read through it: http://git-scm.com/doc (http://git-scm.com/doc). This is the documentation on Git. My tutorial will cover the process, but not so much the details behind each action.

In other news, I already gathered a a small list of moves, which Togetic can use through Metronome. It isn't finished yet, but I already have decided that it will be one move from every type. Question marks mean that I haven't decided on a move from that type, so I would like your opinion that. Anyway, here is the list: Substitute (Normal) Ember (Fire) Whirlpool (Water) Bullet Seed (Grass) Infestation (Bug) Aurora Beam (Ice) Thunder Shock (Electritrc) Sky Uppercut (Fighting) Rock Throw (Rock) Earth Quake(Ground) Wing Attack (Flying) Sludge Bomb (Poison) Psycho Shift/Psybeam/Synchronoise/Psywave (Psychic) Shadow Sneak (Ghost) Twister (Dragon) Night Slash (Dark) Flash Cannon (Steel) Moonlight/Dazzling Gleam (Fairy)
Green=finished Yellow=mostly finished, but needs some sounds and/or finetuning Red=barely started Brown=not completely sure about that choice
I still need help deciding. Please somebody help me decide, which attack I should use as a representant for the types with unknown representants. This is needed for Togetic's Metronome. Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty horrible with this kind of stuff, but for Dark you could use Shadow Ball since that's on the weak side. You don't want anything too OP in that list. Also, you should know that the Fairy Type hasn't been implemented. I think Clefable is a Normal type in PCEA.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on October 03, 2014, 04:08:12 pm
Fairy-type is there on the weakness/resistances chart, just not properly done. I made Clefable Fairy on my game :)

Post by: TrinitroRoy on October 03, 2014, 04:18:22 pm
Thanks for the suggestions. I guess Night Slash will work best, since Critical Hits became part of the system, although I still need instructions from Txpot as to where the hell he got the Critical Hit Ratio values from. Also, I guess I'll just check Bulbapedia for the rest, because I don't feel like grabbing my DS right now.

Alright then. At least that's something to work with, although it seems like those Adventure Quest stages I had in mind might not do with the current sprites.
Green=finished Yellow=mostly finished, but needs some sounds and/or finetuning Red=barely started Brown=not completely sure about that choice
Here is the new list.
Metronome is always going to be a situational move, so the best way to approach this is to use moves that can work in any situation, although you have done well on that. Anyway, Dazzling Gleam will work best for Fairy due to personality and looks of the pokemon.
What's with the text in black? Are those moves you haven't begun to code yet?
I guess Night Slash will work best, since Critical Hits became part of the system, although I still need instructions from Txpot as to where the hell he got the Critical Hit Ratio values from.
Bulbapedia's website has something about critical hits: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Critical_hit Basically, it has 5 levels between 0 and +4, with each level representing the chance of critical hits. My code uses the increments of levels and the double damage from Generation 2, while using the Random trigger to simulate the chance. 0 = 1/16 (6.25% chance, random <= 62) +1 = 1/8 (12.5%, random <= 125) +2 = 1/4 (25%, random <= 249) +3 = 1/3 (33%, random <= 333) +4 = 1/2 (50%, random <= 499)
Note that everyone starts at 0, and random goes from 0 to 999. I've only chosen +1 boosts for everything to try and balance it out, so my Honchkrow can only get a maximum critical boost of +2 under Night Slash and Super Luck.

Ah, thanks. Dazzling Gleam it is then. And yeah, black text means that I have no content made regarding that attack. Substitute is currently used as a filler attack and will be coded last, mainly because of Substitute being Substitute. Twister has got Togetic's attack animation (although it is very crudely done because of lack of actual spinning sprites). Thunder Shock also has got Togetic's attack animation, but I haven't found an FX, that could fit Thunder Shock without looking too much like Thunder Wave. Whirlpool also has got Togetic's attack animation, but I also haven't found an FX for that attack yet. Night Slash now basically has got all the needed sprites there, so I will code Night Slash next (my Night Slash looks different from your Honchkrow's Night Slash, but it should function almost the same).
I guess Night Slash will work best, since Critical Hits became part of the system, although I still need instructions from Txpot as to where the hell he got the Critical Hit Ratio values from.

My code uses the increments of levels and the double damage from Generation 2, while using the Random trigger to simulate the chance. 0 = 1/16 (6.25% chance, random <= 62) +1 = 1/8 (12.5%, random <= 125) +2 = 1/4 (25%, random <= 249) +3 = 1/3 (33%, random <= 333) +4 = 1/2 (50%, random <= 499)
Note that everyone starts at 0, and random goes from 0 to 999. I've only chosen +1 boosts for everything to try and balance it out, so my Honchkrow can only get a maximum critical boost of +2 under Night Slash and Super Luck.
Ah, okay. Thanks. Then, I guess the default Critical Hit Ratio is the one between 0 and +2 (have guessed them by looking at the ratios of your Shuckle).
Also, I might choose Fury Cutter instead of Infestation, because Infestation seems to be in terms of functions just a bug version of Whirlpool, but I'm still not 100% sure.
EDIT: Okay, I have now finished a lot from Night Slash. The only big thing left is coding in the mist effect. I basically have a big mist sprite (512x152), which has got the + in its center. What I want to do that the mist sprite moves slowly to a side, but without seeing that the sprite is cut off. In other words, I'm trying to use tiling outside of stage creation. What should I do?

Thunder Shock also has got Togetic's attack animation, but I haven't found an FX, that could fit Thunder Shock without looking too much like Thunder Wave.
I'd say to take the Electric sprites from either Pikachu's Thunderbolt or Electrode's Spark from their files, but you may want a different one for it instead just so you're not replicating an attack in its entirely.
Ah, okay. Thanks. Then, I guess the default Critical Hit Ratio is the one between 0 and +2 (have guessed them by looking at the ratios of your Shuckle).
Oh yeah, the A.I code. The AI gets a 25% chance of Critical as standard (+2) as I thought it was the easiest way to replicate the cheapness of Battle Tower/Maison/Subway/Frontier. If you don't mind copy-pasting code, then take what you need.

I can think of two ways to get the job done on that one:
1. If you're using a helper for the mist, and the helper IS the mist that's moving, you summon multiple helpers at the same time for the mist depending on how fast you want it to go, spreadding them out using "pos". Then you set the velocity of each one so that they all move in unison, and check to see if they're linked together properly. You may want to mess around with the positions a bit as it can get fiddly, but don't copy this code without editing part of it for your preference.

2. If the helper spawns Explods of mist, then you have this one helper summon multiple Explods at the same time for the mist in the same way as Helper, but using "Vel" to set the velocities of the Explod.

That's the only way? Man, that reminds me of how I coded a super for a character and had to use a shit-ton of helpers, just so the hitbox of the diagonal spinning lasers could work properly. -_- Man, that wasn't very pretty and it required everyone to increase the helper limit in the mugen.CFG file, so I would really like to not do such a thing again unless there is no other way around.
Also, I would like it, if we could continue most of our conversation through PM, because in my current situation, posting in threads is a real chore.

Yes, those are some intros from DS generation of Pokemon, the scene is near to the eye of a storm. About the floor it could be edited to be horizontal like the others ;) . I could say that this is the V1 of some stages. They need to be standarized to fit the same style. This is the actual progress:
Nope, those are exclusive made for the PCEA project :beatnik:

You know, there's a "Miss" in this pokemon's (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html) name. It must have parents, so I wonder where the Mr and Mrs are?

Your Mismagius RAR file is missing a lot of files needed for a MUGEN character, and even the RAR file itself did NOT expect to have that few files there. The SND file, the pallettes and the readme file are missing. And yes, I did redownload your character...THREE TIMES! And it's always the same error.

I've tested them both and can conclude that they're both pretty solid characters. The only issue I had was up against Blissey as Bellossom. Blissey's defense is off the charts in comparison, so there was really no other way. Had to F1 her to continue lol.
Mismagius' Will 'O Wisp could be a little faster. Comparing it to Pikachu's Thunder Wave, it seems really too slow. Maybe just a bit faster. Not drastically, as I can see what you were going for. Will 'O Wisp helped me to kill Venusaur who overpowers me in every way. Luckily, the burn was on him and I was using a combo of Hex and Shadow Ball. Most other times, Will 'O Wisp gets interrupted, especially against someone like Blastoise, who for some reason has low ATB on his attacks. Ryon needs to work on that lol.

Hey! I still have the sprite sheet and will make him personally. I just haven't had the chance to really dedicate my time to PCEA, since NZCR is my priority. Oh spriters... I don't know how you do it.

Thanks, I would be really happy. Also, I would be really happy, if someone could tell me, why the effect for Flare Blitz is only showing up correctly when done by Player 1... Whenever Flareon does Flare Blitz, it is engulfed in flames, like in the anime. However, Player 2 does NOT mirror the helper like it should. Aside from that, how can I make a POKéMON in this game check, by which type (Normal/Fire/etc.) of attack it gets hit? Thanks in advance!

No problem. Well, it depends on how you coded it. PM me and we'll handle it there unless someone knows before me. I don't think that feature has been implemented. There's only a type of attack that's set. While I can see the practical usage already for something like that, what do you need it for, so that maybe I can help suggest an alternative?

Haha, no problem, man. :) I'll PM you too when it's done so you can get a first look. Maybe I'll make a preview video of it.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm actually surprised with how well this idea took off. At first it was just a "what-if," but after it was brought to life, it showed how many Poke-fans there are. :P Even some of the ones who didn't like Pokemon as much still took interest. It's amazing. :)

*Looks up Flash Fire because I'm a n00b...* Ah, well that's actually not that hard to do. The type of the players move is reported and you can get that from var(6). enemynear(0),var(6) will get you their move type. You just need to set up an internal system for your Flareon to check that when you're hit and activate the ability accordingly.

Uhhh, I think I'm on some sort of drug today to have come up with Togepi, of all things... I meant Togekiss! Sorry! Anyway. Holy hell, Meowth was ridiculous to play with! I couldn't beat the first opponent of an arcade match at all! I had Quilava, Honchkrow, Lapras, and even Pikachu destroy me each time I tried it. So I've decided to edit this pokemon from another author's pokemon for the first time. Expect an update to it sometime this week, and hopefully I can make the changes without something going wrong.
Then finally, after playing as Jolteon by QuickFsit (QuickFist), I get an instant crash before it comes out of its pokeball the first time, and get this error before I faced the next opponent on the second time:

Ah, thanks. If the air gets inhaled by this pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/now-its-getting-hot-flareon-released--162884.html), then you can pretty much expect some burn afterwards.
Are we going by Txpot's characters as templates, or the ones already in the game? We need a character template, really :s
For now, you can use whatever. The original character template was intended to be used, but since TxPot added things to his characters that were not really considered in the original, his characters were used as a base instead. Eventually, I'll implement critical hits into the system and certain other things that might have been done in his characters that all characters should have. Damn guys, stop making me want to come back to it so soon, lol. XD

So I managed to push the changes of Meowth to the system. Hopefully I did it right.
Meowth Changes:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. Adjusted his walk animation, intro, and win pose a bit so it flows smoothly. 2. Blue collisions adjusted, as was clearly a sprite-swap of Rhyhorn whenever he moves or takes damage. Red collisions adjusted to accomodate his low attack range with moves like Fury Swipes missing on Pikachu. 3. Fixed helper cloning glitch and debug flood with Pay Day. In addition, it also has a new animation to show it throwing the coin, and the coin has a lower position. 4. Adjusted ATB on the following moves:
5. Name position for Player 2 adjusted. 6. Added now sounds to replace most of the previous ones used. 7. Increased walking speed. 8. Increased hit times of all moves.
NOTE: I don't know why his Night Slash doesn't seem to register being a Dark-type move. Therefore, it'll do the same damage as Slash against Psychic/Ghost types.

This pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/trinitronitys-eeveelutions-release-thread-vaporeon-beta-162884.0.html) is not only a good swimmer, but can also melt into water itself!
I was thinking about doing Jolteon next, but there are two things that are stopping me from doing it: 1. QuickFist seems to have at least started to work on Jolteon, although I'm not sure if he is still working on Jolteon. If not, then I'm more than glad to take over his WIP. 2. JoshR's Jolteon sprites aren't even that good. And regarding Togetic, I finally decided to NOT use Fury Cutter as the Bug type representant of Togetic's Metronome, since Fury Cutter would be pretty useless because of Metronome being...well, Metronome. So only Infestation is left, but I would be like SUPER GLAD, if someone could post me a GIF animation of how Infestation even looks like in any of the sources (I stayed away from POKéMON X/Y because of the experiments done in that game).

Alright, so I tested out vaporeon and kind of hate how he runs. I think JoshR sprited him to be kind of hopping sort of. Surf's animation is kind of weird. Not sure why he gets thrown forward that way. Aqua Ring is a good implementation and getting healed by all water attacks is OP against Blastoise lol. It's solid, but needs some work.

I didn't liked the way how Txpot made Surf look like, so I tried to imitate, how Surf looked like in both the anime AND Super Smash Bros Brawl (because that's how Surf should have looked like) while still using Txpot's Surf effects. Kinda hard to make it look like Vaporeon is riding on the water wave...
Aqua Ring is a good implementation and getting healed by all water attacks is OP against Blastoise lol. It's solid, but needs some work.
Haha, well, it's kinda needed because both Vaporeon's attack and defence isn't even that good, and Vaporeon pretty much gets mutilated by Venusaur (and at least two of Bellosom's attacks instantly kill Vaporeon without being a Critical Hit when Grassy Terrain is in effect). And I'm glad that you like my Aqua Ring. Also, could you please tell me, if Quickfist is still working on his Jolteon? I wanted to code Jolteon anyway, so if he isn't working on Jolteon, then I would like to work on Jolteon. Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure he's out of creating mugen in general, so you're good to go. I can ask him later today if I see him online. I have him on Skype.
Yeah, I think I'm going to have to back to my old Pokemon and implement their abilities provided they're not too cheap. For Croagunk, I was thinking of giving him Dry Skin as well as Poison Touch. Right now he has only Poison Touch.

Our guest tonight has a thing for waving to people. So lets put this 'star (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html) in our reasonably-priced car!
Apparently it has some iron quantities (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/txpots-1-0-m-u-g-e-n-creations-2382014-blisseylapras-released-121893.0.html) inside it. If that's so, it could make me a tidy profit at the Pokemon Black Market!

I wouldn't bother with Dry Skin at the moment if I was you. Weather effects are flaky at best, and may need further testing, although feel free to implement the "recover HP from water attacks" and "take extra damage from fire attacks" part of the code.

Awesome! I was just talking about Steelix with a friend. Can't wait to test these out. I was thinking the same thing actually, taking extra damage from fire and healing from water. The weather is something that might be implemented at a later time. Currently, your Castform is the only one who really makes anything of it. There are many things that I would like implemented globally so that character makers just need to know what vars to set to make stuff happen, similar to how you can set status effects on enemies.
Edit: Omastar is really fun to play as. I was getting my ass handed to me by Venusaur. 6 seconds is just enough to block all of his Solar Beam with protect if you time it perfectly. If not, you'll get it by some of the remaining hits. I ended up killing him with Spike Cannon spam, lol. I only got Ancient Power's extra power once, but it helped me win the fight, so all and all it's a really nice character.
Steelix looks kind of strange just floating around and moving the way he does, but that's okay. I don't blame that on you, but the original sprites. He's really powerful that's for sure. The only one that was able to beat me once was Clefable because... for some reason Clefable is really fast to attack. Against Scarmory, I was able to dodge fly by timing Earthquake at the right time. It was pretty nice. Got me the win in that fight.
Nice job!
Edit 2: You might find this Pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/croagunk-daeron-and-alexei--163001.0.html) in a back alley poisoning bad guys with his punches.
Edit 3: Hmm, I realized that we never released the second beta. Croagunk doesn't seem to do damage in the first beta due to all the changes that went on in the latest one. I guess I'll have to upload it some time, though I feel like it's too incomplete right now. I wasn't sure if I was going to add a second-type affinity or not, but one thing for sure is that I would like a new trainer base with run sprites as well.
What you guys may not have known is that I originally coded this so that the Pokemon could actually push each other across the field. Like a really powerful attack would knock them back and then the attacker would move forward. This would allow for longer stages and I think the original code is still there. Another thing everyone is missing out on is the new select screen. :\

Oh, and in regards to Steelix, I'm positive that's the X/Y menu sprite, not this old one: (http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/archive/b/bf/20140123054923%21208MS.png)

Okay, QuickFist has sent me his Jolteon today, and I'm already almost finished with Jolteon. There is only one thing: I think I have screwed up the accuracy of Zap Cannon:
Code:
[State 520, Set ATB] type = Null trigger1 = !time trigger1 = var(14):=random<500
[State VelSet];Palette Changes type = VelSet triggerall = root,var(10) >= 1 trigger1 = time = 1 x = 14 y = ifelse(enemy,pos y <=-100,-5,0)
[State VelSet];No Palette Changes type = VelSet triggerall = root,var(10) <= 0 triggerall = var(14) = 1 trigger1 = time = 1 x = 14 y = ifelse(enemy,pos y <=-100,-5,0)
[State VelSet];No Palette Changes type = VelSet triggerall = root,var(10) <= 0 triggerall = var(14) = 0 trigger1 = time = 1 x = 14 y = ifelse(enemy,pos y <=-100,-2,-7)
That was me trying to imitate the 50 points of accuracy, which Zap Cannon has, but Zap Cannon misses way too fucking much... :-\ Combine that with the fact that Jolteon gets defeated by almost every other POKéMON and even by Water-type POKéMON, I'm now thinking about dropping the accuracy recreation in Zap Cannon completely...

Ah, thanks. Now it misses way less and Jolteon finally wins a bit more. The fur of this pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/trinitronitys-eeveelutions-release-thread-vaporeon-beta-and-jolteon-162884.0.html) is pointing in all compass directions. Shocking, isn't it?

Found a problem with Venusaur and Pikachu:
When Venusaur uses Solar Beam right after the enemy has died, Venusaur will get stuck in the animation and won't be able to complete the attack. In addition, I see that Pikachu can glitch pokemon with his thunder attacks: If his Thunder attacks inflicts paralysis at the time the enemy would die, they would run back to their start position and THEN die, instead of dying on the spot.

(http://i.imgur.com/m0bek0b.png) Espeon is already around 60% finished. This is what is left: *Future Sight *Synchronize *sun rays for Morning Sun (since Morning Sun itself is already finished, thanks to Txpot for explaining, how a different POKéMON can detect the weather conditions).
I also went ahead and added weather detection to Flareon, Vaporeon and Quilava (the damage of Flareon's and Quilava's fire-attacks also get modified depending on the conditions, but I cannot really test well, if it also get multiplied correctly, since the only POKéMON, who can change the weather right now, also changes his type depending on the weather, resulting in any possible boost being nullified by resistances).

Alright. I won't be able to do this till next week though. Much of the reason why I release my creations here is due to both feedback/help/personal views of said creation, and due to cases like Trinitority who can't use Git to download things. I will update through Git soon.
Speaking of which, how's the stage I made? I thought it was alright for my first attempt, and I think that the stage's y-axis screen boundary is okay due to how off-screen moves work, like Lugia's Sky Attack.

I understand, but it's just so we can keep all development in the same place. It makes it easier for one of us to pick up on something. :) I wouldn't expect you to stop releasing your things here. It's preferred as well. Git is just for the development side of things, so it's okay if something is unfinished. It's all about recording changes through the progression of a project.
I have to test it yet, but will report back afterwards.

Yeah, we had a template character, but even now it would be outdated. TxPot has implemented some new things that need to be in the system rather than a template, so it's hard to say. Right now, it would be best to use another, more recent character as reference. Pretty much anything that can do critical hits I think, since that's really the only thing that's different (besides some character-specific changes) between the versions.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Training Field storm Thunder Meadow PokeBeach Viridian Forest S.S. Anne Metallic Corridor Sewer (EXshadow) Field (EXshadow) Hills (EXshadow) Magma Flow (EXshadow) Space Elevator (EXshadow)
Total: 12
Template-wise, there isn't much of a template set in stone. Although anyone can freely use my characters as a template, please note that due to how many functions we could add to the system (Custom Pause menu, Use items in battle, etc), the variables used in anything I make may have to be moved. Assuming we're implementing a load of things, I would leave up to 15 free Int and 10 Float variables for the creator to use.
Are y'all against putting Pokemon in the background like this?
Sorry I didn't mention this earlier, but the only problem I have with the stages is the pokemon placements. There's always a possibility that someone makes a big pokemon like Steelix, and they may take up half of the screen despite the pokemon being placed right in the SFF. I would have them move back towards the edge of the screen so that the pokemon trainers aren't being covered up by the side of the screen, while the big pokemon still get some room to breathe in. If you don't know what I mean, go and open up either the Poke Beach, Viridian Forest, or my Metallic Corridor stage, and play as Steelix while comparing these stages to every other one made.

Heh, POKéMON is one of my favorite franchises, so I of course do my best, just like everyone else there. Anyway, after I have finished Umbreon (I really only need FX right now), I guess I will code a different POKéMON before I'll continue with my Eeveelution conversions. After that, Togetic (hopefully)!

It looks great visually, but the character sprites seem out of place. I think the platform could be more clear (I think that's what I mean).

That would make sense if I didn't have the BG scrolling. I'm going to have the BG scrolling with cars moving and stuff with boosters on the flopr ends.
do all of your stages have that Blue-ish overlay, Lol! :P
Would you rather me use a dark green tint overlay?

Wait, really? Then this problem needs to be solved somehow. I don't want SS. Anne to be shitcanned from this MUGEN project. Aside from that: I really don't wanna sound impatient, but I would really like it, if someone could finally give me the needed Dark Pulse FX (especially because I'm not too fond of Darkrai's Dark Pulse and I really need FX for Umbreon's Dark Pulse). That, and the new Aqua Ring FX for Vaporeon. I'm not telling anyone to rush. I just don't want to be left in dark.

Hey all. For the past several weeks, I have come up with possibly the end-all template for the project, and the end-all wishlist for potential pokemon to exist in the game, as you can now create more than just your own within it. Keep in mind that while the original variables and placement of sprites are mostly intact, this template changes much of the system you know of, including the lack of compatiability with the original characters.
As this is a beta, I will not deem this complete enough to use as a template, and thus won't do anything to the current system until I get the go-ahead to replace it with this system instead. A help file is included but it's unfinished.
The only problem I have with this is that there is so much to edit that it may overwhelm creators and new players alike, with the biggest problem being the damage formula; Even I am getting a headache from this formula, as it needs a ton of testing to see if I'm doing the right damage. A help guide may be needed to clear some things up.
Bear in mind that not all abilities and moves can be replicated. This shouldn't stop you from devising your own pokemon's tricks, attacks, and strategies! This is the list of all abilities and moves that cannot be replicated without some overhauling or move changes:
Moves:

*CONTROLS*
1. Select the character as usual. It is recommended to have Debug Keys on and turn P2's A.I on. 2. When the fight starts, use directional keys and Start button to choose pokemon. 3. When you have a full ATB, press START to pause. Use directional keys and Start button to choose options. Items does not work for now. 4. On the Summary screen, press START to select pokemon, then directional keys to browse moves and stats. 5. To switch pokemon, pause the game, select "Switch" and select the pokemon you want. 6. To quit early, have a pokemon faint, then select Exit with start, followed by yes with the prompt. 7. Don't try to quit in training mode, as the battle will never end. Instead, I will create a dedicated Training Tool to test out pokemon on.
*CHANGES*
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Gameplay:
1. You can now use up to 3 pokemon at once. It is possible to program more, but I feel that 3 is the most realistic you can get from a battle that shouldn't last ages, and yet can get more fun and a challenge out of it. 2. Because of the above, damage taken and status will be specific to each pokemon. This means that each individual can suffer from a status effect, instead of the whole team suffering from one pokemon. 3. You can now pause the game. When doing this, the player who used it gets to check out their pokemon's current stats and abilties, switch pokemon, and use items. 4. When one of your pokemon is defeated, you get the option of using either your remaining ones, or quitting the battle early. 5. Instead of using Mugen's .cns data, Pokemon now use their own stats to work out the damage dealt and taken, Max HP, and speed of getting their turn. This may open up possibilities, like lowering stats temporarily or even using pokemon that are a lower level than 100. 6. Moves now have a set ATB rate that is universal to all pokemon, to make use of the new formula for the ATB rate. This alone will be decided and agreed on by the community. 7. Moves are now split between Normal and Special types of attack. No longer will you be walled by notorious pokemon like Blissey, because you can just use your physical moves against it! 8. Moves now deal between 85-100% of their total damage like in Diamond and Pearl, but it can be gotten rid of. 9. New Type: [Super-Effective]. This type allows any attack to inflict Super-Effective damage on any pokemon, and a pokemon with this type will take Super-Effective damage from all other types. It is mostly used to recreate Freeze-Dry and Shadow Pokemon within the game. 9. System Add-ons implemented and now are a part of the whole system: Critical hits, STAB mode (Although it can be gotten rid of), Status viewing at any time, Weather. 10. Abilities can be added in, but only certain abilities will work under STAB mode, while others will need special animations to trigger their effect. 11. A.I can be freely created for the character to some extent.
Formula:
1. When a pokemon is out, the stats they have at level 100 are taken into account for attacks, damage taken, and ATB rate. The following formula may change in the future:
ATB rate calculations: 60-ticks-per-second + (speed/20, rounded down) [e.g 457 speed / 20 = 22.85, + 60 = 82 ticks for ATB per second]. Speed can only go up to 60 ticks a second, translated to an unreasonable 1200 speed.
Attacker Damage calculations are mostly copied from Diamond and Pearl's damage calculations, with some exceptions: 1. It only takes into account the enemy's defence or Special Defence. It doesn't take into account whether the enemy has Light Screen/Reflect, etc. 2. It doesn't take into account the enemy's type resistances. I've left this to the original system, and it works well provided you use [fvar(1)] as you normally would. 3. We do not use Modifier 2 or 3. 4. Rounding off values takes place after EVERYTHING has been calculated, not on each part of the calculation.
Defender Damage calculations: Damage taken divide by your Reflect/Light Screen effect and other effects/abilities like Dry Skin. It also takes critical hits into account.
Code:
1. To accommodate all of these changes, the number of variables the system uses is now 40 for int and 30 for floats. Only var(40-59) and fvar(30-39) can be used by the creator if they wish. 2. Got rid of everything involving ForceFeedback, as it's a useless state controller.
*BUGS*
1. Pausing the game won't stop all attacks from being carried out. This can be fixed by using the "Pause" state, but this causes Mugen to crash later on. 2. The damage formula doesn't take into account multiple hits. Therefore, the damage of a multi-hitting attack will be greater than if the attack was condensed to only one hit, despite the damage reductions still being carried out. 3. Please leave alone the code in the [Data] part of the .cns file. It's there to ensure accurate damage, and the extra life is there to prevent taking excess damage to have a premature KO while in battle. 4. You can skip the "Select Pokemon" part at the beginning of the battle by pressing any button except START. If that happens, you will start with the pokemon you have selected using START, or the first pokemon if you didn't select a pokemon. This can be fixed with a variable and a lot of code, but this will come later. 5. The "Item" mode of the Pause Screen doesn't work for now. Don't bother trying to select it.
*TO DO LIST*
1. All viable abilities. 2. Split Trainer animation code to have their own statedef to better code animation transitions.
During the process of me making a template, you may wish to think of potential teams of 3 or less pokemon for each trainer to have. These could be anything, from the original standards of having Bird Keepers use only bird-like pokemon, or an Aroma Lady having nothing but Regenerator and Natural Cure pokemon.

These changes are way more than I was expecting and really work well. I have some feedback based on my testing though:
- The select cursor is too large for the Exit Button on the Switch Pokemon menu. - The UI doesn't stay in place on stages that have a floaty feel to them such as S.S. Anne. - The move nameplate only shows for P2 when they're attacking. - While pressing "Start" for the intro menu is understandable, I think all other menus should allow for normal inputs as selection. - If the intro selection is skipped, it should select the Pokemon you already had selected. To fix this, the var that stores the pokemon to use should be set while scrolling through each pokemon, not after your hit the start button. It's not a lot of code like you mentioned. This is something I did with my Neku Sakuraba, only he had 12 pins to select through instead of 3. :P - Players should be able to pause at any time, not just when the ATB bar is full. I know you mentioned this, but Pause really does work well since this game doesn't really use it. My NZCR Demo has a working pause screen that you might be able to get some ideas from. It has its issues with other Pauses canceling out its own, but we shouldn't with this game.

This was done as a balancing issue. You could attack, then pause or switch as soon as you finish attacking, turning this trait into the effects of Volt Switch/U-Turn. However, I can make it so that you can use it as long as you're not attacking or being hit.
I'll check out your NZCR Demo for some ideas on the pause screen.

This also shows for Player 1, although to see this you will need to use either Watch Mode or VS mode and turn P1's A.I on.
hmm, why only with the A.I.? Seems like something that anyone would want to see I'd think.

We could have two variations of Pause. A normal Pause for hitting Enter at any time with options "greyed" out and then allowing you to use them when pausing if you're not attacking, etc.

If you mean the new beta release of the engine, I'm afraid I can't release it as we're still working things out on the game system. You can check out the preview of one of the systems in the last download link I posted here (i.e the supposed "end-all template" to the system).
If you mean the update to the "end-all template" I posted earlier, this will come later as I've run into more problems during the last bit of testing I did.
If you mean my download links to the creations I've made up to Charizard, you can get them at my Mediafire folder. I'm not releasing anything for the game anymore as I'm working more on making a stable system first.
As for the last thing said before I came online now and found out it was changed, the Intro and Ending to the full game is up to Alexei to decide on what to do with that. I personally won't touch that area of the game yet.
P.S: My message may have been affected by what I call "My Little Pony-ism".

I got an neat idea if you guys are up for it. We could hold a tournament(like one with 32 teams or so) and whoever wins gets to choose the next pokemon that gets made. If there's even more people we could set up a league were you could earn points to get into the tourney I mentioned

Hmm, it's an interesting idea, but there would have to be some ground rules. For example, we can only pick from the sprites that JoshR has already made. I won't be custom spriting anything because I'm pretty bad at it. I'd be willing to support it though. Depends on others. @TxPot, would you be on board for something like this? @Ryon?

Thanks to its plant-like features, this pokemon (http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/trinitronitys-eeveelutions-release-thread-leafeon-released-162884.0.html) can perform photosynthesis and purify the air around it by sleeping under patches of sunshine. It's also rather pacifistic...whoops.
Also, this marks the end of my first wave of POKéMON for Project Catch'em All. Will I come back? Of course, but I will now wait first until the system update is finished. In the meanwhile, I will continue to work on the NES Street Fighter 4 remake with Cliff Li (and his stage), Chun-Fo Moon's stage, the screenpack and Tyson Houbot (and his stage).
Also, here are my planned POKéMON for my next wave: *Togetic (an old WIP of mine) *Ampharos *Lucario *Rotom *??? *??? *??? *??? Yup, 8 POKéMON again, although I still haven't decided on the last 4. Any suggestions?

Post by: Ricepigeon on January 12, 2016, 04:51:18 pm
Okay seeing as how I've actually started following this project more closely thanks to Traweezie's streams allow me to throw in my feedback.
Simul mode has alot of bugs. Lifebars overlap (you can't see your partner's sometimes), certain abilities don't work (ie: Water Absorb), weather conditions not affecting teammates (ie: Charizard's Sunny Day & Venusaur's Solarbeam), among other things.
Critical Hits, I feel, happen way too often and can literally make or break a match. Best example is Hitmonlee; if he scores a Critical Hit with High Jump Kick, its literally game over for a large majority of the cast. Imo, this should be reduced to the source game's base critical rate of 6.25%, and possibly even reduce the critical damage down to 50% to match the mechanics used in gen 6.
Certain types being affected by status conditions that they shouldn't be (ie: Fire types being Burned, Electric types being Paralyzed, Grass types being affected by Leech Seed, etc)
Character balance issues. For a boss character, Mewtwo seems really underpowered, as compared to Steelix and possibly even Charizard, who feel really OP in comparison. There's also the aforementioned Hitmonlee, and even Pikachu is guilty of this as well to a certain extent (Paralysis making them unable to move 100% of the time for two turns seems kind of silly)
Lack of dual-typing, though I'm going to assume that this is system related. Still, theoretically dual types shouldn't be too difficult to implement and would add a bit more variety.
Lack of type immunities. I mean, its already possible with Water Absorb, so I don't think it would be too game breaking.
Also expect me to contribute to this once I get a better understanding of the underlying system and code.
@TxPot, would you be on board for something like this?
I don't mind this. My team would be Steelix at the front, and Honchkrow at the back. I could list a pokemon as a bounty, and the winner could have the pokemon released ahead of the usual engine updates.
Also, here are my planned POKéMON for my next wave: *Togetic (an old WIP of mine) *Ampharos *Lucario *Rotom *??? *??? *??? *??? Yup, 8 POKéMON again, although I still haven't decided on the last 4. Any suggestions?
You haven't done Eevee yet, unless you're scrapping him.
Dratini, Bagon, Shelgon, and Gible are the only Dragon type (Primary Type) that exists in JoshR's sprites. There's also not a single Flying type that exists, unless someone decides that Fan-Rotom should be pure Flying.

Also expect me to contribute to this once I get a better understanding of the underlying system and code.
1. I am working on a reduced lifebar version for Simul only. It won't happen for a while though. As for everything else, it's explained by the code handling: If the opponent is playing in Simul, the first pokemon out of the two will determine the whole team's type, abilities, and what moves will work on them. For example, Surf will be super-effective against Sandslash and Blastoise because Sandslash is the first Pokemon out.
2. If the A.I is using the pokemon, they get a +2 (or 25% chance) to the critical levels, to replicate the cheapness of Battle Tower and other forms of hax. This can be up for debate, but I can reduce the critical damage though.
3. This would be easy to add using custom states and a small amount of code, but given the fact that certain Pokemon wouldn't benefit from something resisting a status as they're too weak to attack normally, I say it's up for debate. Leech seed is a lost cause, though.
4. There's only a few things I can do for this, which is to give notorious Pokemon their lowest attacking stat out of the two. This would balance Hitmonlee out, but may be subjected to criticism.
5. Dual typing is one thing I would object to, as it would make certain pokemon stronger and others weaker. Imagine poor Magcargo being one-shotted by Surf or Earthquake.
6. Alexei objected to this long ago, but then told me we could try to make this work. For now, I would suggest having a higher resistance to something that should be immune to it, like damage set to 25% of original with Ghost VS Normal.
For some incentive on what pokemon to create, here is the original list for all pokemon that have a primary type, updated to use Trinitronity's creations:

Normal: 4 (Blissey, Meowth, Snorlax, Jigglepuff) Fire: 4 (Charizard, Flareon, Magcargo, Quilava) Fighting: 3 (Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Hitmontop) Water: 4 (Blastoise, Lapras, *Squirtle*, Vaporeon) Flying: 0 () Grass: 3 (Bellossom, Venusaur, Leafeon) Poison: 1 (Croagunk) Electric: 4 (Electrode, Jolteon, Pachirisu, Pikachu) Ground: 2 (Marowak, Sandslash) Psychic: 4 (Espeon, Lugia, Mewtwo, Mr.Mime) Rock: 2 (Omastar, Rhyhorn) Ice: 1 (Glaceon) Bug: 4 (Beedrill, Scyther, Shedinja, Shuckle) Dragon: 0 () Ghost: 1 (Mismagius) Dark: 3 (Darkrai, Honchkrow, Umbreon) Steel: 2 (Skarmory, Steelix) Fairy: 1 (*Clefable*) Type-Changing: 1 (Castform) NOTE: Clefable needs to be changed to the Fairy type, and Squirtle is essentially a sprite-swap on an older version of Blastoise so he doesn't have the new code to recognise strengths or weaknesses against any pokemon.
Total = 44 pokemon (3 Legendaries)
As for pokemon claiming, I will do the types that are lacking in pokemon. That is Crobat, Granbull, Froslass, Dugtrio, and Gengar. If anyone objects, I will scrap them.

5. Dual typing is one thing I would object to, as it would make certain pokemon stronger and others weaker. Imagine poor Magcargo being one-shotted by Surf or Earthquake.
Reason I bring up the Dual typing issue is the fact that the only Pokemon whose primary type is Flying is Tornadus, and that Pokemon who otherwise should take neutral damage or immune would end up being hit super effectively instead (ie: Skarmory vs Earthquake). It would also balance out some of the better Pokemon by granting them additional weaknesses (ie: Steelix)
As for the 4x weakness issue, I have two propositions;
Limit super effective damage to be x2 at max, which means that Magcargo won't suffer from being OHKOed by Surf all the time
Reduce super effective damage multipliers from x2 and x4 to x1.5 and x2.25, respectively. Of course this would also mean increasing the damage of Not very Effective attacks from x0.5 and x0.25 to x0.66 and x0.44, respectively, so resisted attacks end up doing more damage to compensate.

6. Alexei objected to this long ago, but then told me we could try to make this work. For now, I would suggest having a higher resistance to something that should be immune to it, like damage set to 25% of original with Ghost VS Normal.
If you go with option 2 that I suggested above then this should be fine, otherwise I'd probably go with Traweezie's suggestion of 12.5%

4. There's only a few things I can do for this, which is to give notorious Pokemon their lowest attacking stat out of the two. This would balance Hitmonlee out, but may be subjected to criticism.
You could probably fiddle with the base stats so that they're slightly lower, but nothing as palty as Hitmonlee's Sp.Atk, that would make him unusable. As I said earlier, the thing that really breaks Hitmonlee is the borked Critical Hit system for AIs, so fix that and youve pretty much nerfed Hitmonlee. Steelix is a different story though, and I suspect it may have to do with Screech and how stat drops work in this game.

Okay seeing as how I've actually started following this project more closely thanks to Traweezie's streams allow me to throw in my feedback.
Simul mode has alot of bugs. Lifebars overlap (you can't see your partner's sometimes), certain abilities don't work (ie: Water Absorb), weather conditions not affecting teammates (ie: Charizard's Sunny Day & Venusaur's Solarbeam), among other things.
Critical Hits, I feel, happen way too often and can literally make or break a match. Best example is Hitmonlee; if he scores a Critical Hit with High Jump Kick, its literally game over for a large majority of the cast. Imo, this should be reduced to the source game's base critical rate of 6.25%, and possibly even reduce the critical damage down to 50% to match the mechanics used in gen 6.
Certain types being affected by status conditions that they shouldn't be (ie: Fire types being Burned, Electric types being Paralyzed, Grass types being affected by Leech Seed, etc)
Character balance issues. For a boss character, Mewtwo seems really underpowered, as compared to Steelix and possibly even Charizard, who feel really OP in comparison. There's also the aforementioned Hitmonlee, and even Pikachu is guilty of this as well to a certain extent (Paralysis making them unable to move 100% of the time for two turns seems kind of silly)
Lack of dual-typing, though I'm going to assume that this is system related. Still, theoretically dual types shouldn't be too difficult to implement and would add a bit more variety.
Lack of type immunities. I mean, its already possible with Water Absorb, so I don't think it would be too game breaking.
Also expect me to contribute to this once I get a better understanding of the underlying system and code.
1.) Yes, it was never meant to be used, so it needs some serious love in order to work properly with everyone.
2.) I'd be for using the base crit rate. We're mostly going by the book for everything else. I can't see why this would have to be an exception. Critical should be something special unless boosted... seeing how all this stuff needs to be revamped, the character stats should probably too. That might be something to do much later down the line though.
3.) Yep, there was never any intent for there abilties until TxPot implemented them. He basically raised the bar for the whole thing that outshined the originals almost instantly.
4.) Mewtwo was the most powerful... when there were only seven pokemon in the game. I agree that he needs to be buffed.
5.) Dual typing is not something I'm against. It's most certainly system related and needs to reworked altogether. I've been thinking of an implementation and have come up with something that needs testing. Right now, the first enemy spawned is used to gather info about typing. My plan is to change it so that information is checked upon hit, damage calculated, and then finally applied after everything is in effect. This will require all HitDefs to pass along the ID of the root though. There's no going around that. I need to be able to check the variables of the opponent who attacked and the best was is that way. Changing all HitDefs would be tedious, but if this plan works, it'll be work it. Dual types could also be implemented at that time, though I think we're running low on system variables for the game. I'll have to see what's available. Sights were set really low in the beginning as you can tell.
6.) Water Ring fly past the radar to be honest. Even though I knew about it, I never gave it much thought until now. Well, I suppose immunities could be added. Maybe it could start with a few and then we see how that works. I can just imagine how broken fights could become though if a team happens to be immune to the other entirely.
I'll be glad to have you on board, though I'll save the explanation of the system until after it's in an acceptable form. No sense in teaching you two different things.

If it were up to me, I'd use all six stats (HP, Atk, Def, Sp.Atk, Sp.Def, & Speed) since you plan on revamping the way hits are calculated. Rather than each Pokemon having their own Attack and Defense values, you'd have each of the stats assigned as variables and use those in the damage calculations. Hell, you could even go a step further and implement the actual damage formula from the games.

Since its a full game, rather than assigning types to each Pokemon, why not only assign type effectiveness? You'd only need 18 variables for all the types and since it's a fullgame, you'll know that each variable number will be consistent along each Pokemon.

Seeing as there's only really 8 immunities total (Normal vs Ghost, Ghost vs Normal, Fighting vs Ghost, Electric vs Ground, Ground vs Flying, Poison vs Steel, Psychic vs Dark, & Dragon vs Fairy) I really don't think it'll be that huge of an issue. That's why you have multiple attacks of different types after all.

Hmm, can you expand on that idea a bit more? I'm not sure I understand. Even if type-effectiveness was set up that way, the check would still need to be implemented in a way that's simul-friendly.

Steelix is a different story though, and I suspect it may have to do with Screech and how stat drops work in this game.
Steelix's Screech just doubles his attack damage to opponents who haven't had attacked or used a move afterwards. It uses one variable to determine if the opponent is hit by it, and does nothing to the opponent's defences.

I think it's this:
For each Pokemon, there exists 18 variables, one for each type. If the Pokemon is weak against something like Water, one of those 18 variables will have Water as 2 (as in x2 extra damage taken from water). Then, when the defending Pokemon gets hit and/or ends up in the opponent's state, it checks to see if the attacker is using a Water-type move before it processes everything else. If so, it applies the extra damage.

@TxPot, would you be on board for something like this?
I don't mind this. My team would be Steelix at the front, and Honchkrow at the back. I could list a pokemon as a bounty, and the winner could have the pokemon released ahead of the usual engine updates.
Steelix is banned til he gets a nerf. I'll put you in the database when you switch the team. Also I'll be streaming at 1pm pst if you wanna tune in

Pretty much this. You might need an extra variable for the attack type but that shouldnt be to difficult to implement.
[State Type Effectiveness] trigger1 = time=0 trigger1 = fvar(38):=fvar(enemy,var(10))
[State Hitstate] type = lifeadd trigger=? value = -gethitvar(damage)*fvar(38)
The only issue with the above system is that it wont account for moves with their own type charts like Freeze Dry or Flying Press, but I don't think those moves are implemented yet.
EDIT: Altered the above to account for Freeze Dry and Flying Press by using 2 extra variables

You haven't done Eevee yet, unless you're scrapping him.
Eevee is not really an Eeveelution per se. No, it's actually just the base form of all the Eeveelutions. Furthermore, I have no idea how to make Eevee unique from the Eeveelutions. However, I can tell you that much: If someone will sprite Sylveon in JoshR's style, then I will MUGENize that one last Eeveelution in a heartbeat.

For now, there won't be any mega-evolutions. It depends on how well the sprites are made and if they fit the style of the rest. Also, it's a whole new thing that would have to be coded in. I'm not sure if we will ever, so no need to worry about this for the time being. Have fun with Mega Blastoise though. The sprite doesn't look too bad, though possibly unfinished.

Project Catch-em All Beta 3
Hello everyone!
As many of you may know, this project has been split into two games, both with different systems we call A and B. Alexei has taken over System B (ability to select and switch Pokemon on the fly) and moved it to Game Maker, and has given me access to the MUGEN project which uses System A, the current game as we have now.
With that being said, this game is not dead. Instead, I have spent the last several months being lazy touching up the current engine and what you can do with it. It's still a beta since many visual things need touching up, like the title screen for example, but anyone can pitch in with ideas to make the system better.
Here's a quick list as to what you can do with it now:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. The game's code has been re-written. It now uses the proper stats for each Pokemon, except speed. This also means that the game now splits its attacks into two different types: Physical and Special, though you can also create attacks that deal a set amount of damage. Evasion and the accuracy of moves now plays a bigger part than damage. 2. Pokemon types are now viable to implement properly. It now uses the proper type advantages/disadvantages for each pokemon. This also means that most pokemon have been affected greatly by this change, since it's possible to create dual-types. 3. Sleep and Freeze is implemented. 4. Periodic damage from Whirlpool/Fire Spin/Infestation/etc is implemented. 5. Weather and terrain-changing abilities and moves work, but they may still be bugs with it. 6. Abilities can be used, but depending on the pokemon, you can either have them turned off unless you select a specified palette, or have them on indefinitely. In addition, the A.I can only activate their ability if you set the difficulty to 8, although this can be removed as well. 7. The names of moves you're currently doing are implemented and can now be displayed as long as you like. 8. The projectiles of most Pokemon's attacks will now only hit one opponent, to emphasize on using Pokemon as a shield as a tactic with the "simul" game mode. Things like Omastar's Scald and Quilava's Flamethrower will not hit multiple opponents unless they are bunched together. 9. Attacks that can flinch will reset the ATB gauge to the minimum of the move itself, rather than a set number that you can also set yourself, if inclined to. Treat this like Paralysis.
Much of what you want to do with each Pokemon depends on whether it's been done before by other creators (implementing the move Disable, for example), whether it was implemented in previous Pokemon games that followed the main games (Surfing Pikachu in Pokemon Stadium), and/or whether it's viable to do it in the MUGEN engine (Mega Evolutions can only be used as a separate character with modified sprites, for example). The general consensus is to try and make the Pokemon less overpowered and more balanced and fun to play with, though Legendaries can be made a bit more powerful for "final boss-ness".
Read the CHARACTER INFO.txt and Developer Reference.txt files for details.
Because of the recent changes, you must disregard every character that's been made before this came to light, since there's a chance they won't be compatible anymore. In addition, certain Pokemon were either nerfed (Steelix, Charizard), buffed (Beedrill), or largely unchanged.
NOTE: Be careful with selecting different combinations of Team Modes; Though I was in the process of fixing the different combinations of effects and how the lifebar generates effects, it can become bugged when you select different game modes for both players instead of the same mode. For now, always keep the same mode for both players.
To fix the problem of stages having missing background elements if the lifebars covering them disappear (when losing an arcade or survival match), the following stages had some changes:
Mewtwo, Desert, Beach, Training Field, ViridianForest: Added more "floor" elements. SSAnne: In addition to the above, changed the "localcoord" size to 630,480 to make the side edges longer.
@EXShadow: needs to work on the following stages to fix this problem, because of the nature of the resources used: PK SEWER, PK FIELD, MUTE CITY.
1. If you hold any directional key/pad after the fight ends but before the win states, the Pokemon will go into their win state and be stuck in their standing animation. The A.I may do this, but it has only happened around 5% of the time. 2. The speed drop from paralysis is reduced by 1/3 instead of 1/2 like what Generation 7 uses. This is intentional, since going any lower than that causes Pokemon to become sluggish and thus become unplayable after being hit by paralysis. 3. Due to the damage being rounded down, Shedinja cannot be KO'd by Sandstorm or Hail damage. This is intentional, otherwise Shedinja would be KO'd before the match begins with those weather effects.
@chuchoryu: I didn't bother update Squirtle because he's a sprite-swap of Blastoise, and so he isn't added to this game. Because making multiples of the same Pokemon isn't recommended, you need to choose either of these three options:
1. Make him different to Blastoise, and give him new moves. I'll happily design them to your liking if you want. 2. Tell me to keep him as-is. I'll copy his code from Blastoise, so he's basically blastoise except with Squirtle sprites. You can still select both of them on the Character Select screen. 3. Make a new Pokemon for this game to replace him.
Explanation of System B:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
I had earlier came up with a system where you can switch between multiple Pokemon. It was playable, but it had MAJOR problems with how everything worked together in MUGEN. Any amount of helpers coded for this game will lag the whole engine when they spawned, causing a frame drop that made the game borderline unplayable. So Alexei decided to make that idea a reality in Game Maker, but that is a totally different engine than what I'm used to. Anyone with knowledge of Game Maker are free to assist Alexei any way they can.
Short list of System Changes:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*General System*
1. All files that have the extension ".cmd" is now changed to ".cmnd" to prevent conflicts with Microsoft Windows and their Operating System using the same file extension. The file can still be edited freely regardless of this change. 2. The select screen now displays the pokemon's move list before selecting it. This is done by using a custom portrait. 3. Attack Menu now remembers the last move used, instead of resetting to Move 1 after each selection. The resetting of moves will still happen at the beginning of each fight though. 4. HP bars now change colour to indicate HP levels of 1/2 or more, 1/2 HP or less, and 1/4 HP or less. 5. Added sound for Burn and Poison status, and for being afflicted with Periodic Damage. 6. The attack table appears and disappears quicker than before, decreasing the time it takes to select a move as it appears by 1/2. 7. You can only select Team Arcade, Training, Watch, Options and Exit on the main menu.
*Types*
1. The range of effectiveness of a given Type is reduced; 4x and 2x effectiveness is reduced to 2.25x and 1.5x respectively, and 0.5x and 0.25x effectiveness is increased to 0.66x and 0.44x respectively. 2. Added the types of Freeze Dry, Flying Press, and the Non-Type. These use fvar(28), fvar(29), and fvar(32) respectively, and are all needed due to certain pokemon moves: Freeze Dry causes Super-effective damage to Water-types, effectively ignoring its resistance to Ice attacks; Flying Press is both a Fighting and Flying-type attack that shares the strengths and weaknessess of both types; The Non-Type is used on moves that deal fixed damage or is otherwise typeless.
*Weather/Terrain*
1. Merged weather and terrain code together, making the game slightly less intensive to render properly. 2. Implemented Terrain effects completely for Grassy and Electric Terrain, but not for Psychic Terrain (since Attack Priority isn't fully enforced) or Misty Terrain (since enemy-caused stat reductions don't exist yet). Also, the type-boosting/resisting additional effect will work on both floating and grounded pokemon. 3. Code within the "Each Start of Round" weather generator is fixed to work on a per-round basis, making it useless without using Turns mode. It now has a 25% chance to generate random weather, but only if the weather doesn't exist in the stage yet OR it cannot generate weather due to stage preferences. 4. "Desert" stage now changes between Sandstorm and Harsh Sunlight. 5. "Storm" stage's weather now works properly, permanently becoming Rain. It was a typo of the stage's name in the common1.cns file, not the stage itself. 6. "Magma Flow" stage's weather now changes between Sandstorm (to replicate volcanic ash), Sunlight (to replicate high temperature), and Mist. 7. "Thunder Meadow" stage's terrain is now Electric Terrain, and the weather may change to Rain at the beginning of the fight with a 25% chance. 8. "Sewer" stage's terrain is now Misty Terrain, and the weather is always Mist.
*Trainer*
1. Separated Trainer animations to Statedefs only, making it easier to diagnose problems with it should the need arise.

The thing with Shedinja's Wonder Guard being the way it is means that some Pokémon physically can't beat Shedinja.
Honestly, I don't consider it a problem. Over half the amount of Pokemon (30+) in the game can beat Shedinja, at least 25 with types, and a few of those being able to beat it with either poison (Beedrill's Toxic Spikes) or "typeless" damage. Shedinja can also kill himself if he hits with Final Gambit, though it's a problem if the stage is too long to hit anyone with it. I figured that since his Wonder Guard is his only form of defence, it should stay on him indefinitely.
I'm willing to change it to being only activated by difficulty if you think it's too unfair.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on May 10, 2018, 07:07:28 pm
It just seems unfair to make anyone completely invalidated by anyone else. It's the ultimate counterpick. You may have to take some liberties with the ability, such as it only being available if Shedinja's at max ATB, or have it so it can only activate a maximum of x times.
I was originally debating on whether or not to make Shedinja disappear into the ground when activating Shadow Sneak, so as to give it an evasive move in order to avoid getting completely lolrekt by things like Rock Throw. I know it's a joke character I made for a laugh, but that doesn't mean it can't have its own way of winning.

Alright, I can see it being a problem when the character tier list is Shedinja itself, those that can beat Shedinja, and everyone else.
Giving some thought into this, I can apply one or more of these choices in a separate patch:
1. Your first earlier suggestion of it being active at Max ATB, which means anyone that plays him will have to kill each opponent quickly or spam Shadow Sneak with its short ATB time.
2. Your second suggestion of it deactivating after being hit a certain amount of times.
3. An amendment would be both the second choice and it deactivating after a certain amount of "HP" is gone. This turns Wonder Guard into a shield that breaks after a while.
If done for the second and/or third choice, what would be the ideal range? 10 hits or 200 HP gone, or higher/lower?
EDIT: Forget what I said earlier. Shedinja is updated with a barrier that can now take up to 15 hits or 300 HP worth of damage, whichever is lower. If hit by a super-effective attack, it will bypass the barrier and defeat Shedinja instantly.
This requires an engine update, so use this link to update Shedinja and the .air file in the system: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jcc9wjyi4nyaygb/Pokemon_Project_Catch_em_All-update.rar

Hi, I'm the creator of Togetic (as well as the Eeveelutions in PCEA), and I just want to confirm that Togetic is still happening. However, progress is currently halted since last time I heard, Project Catch 'Em All is still on hiatus. In other words, I'm literally just waiting for work on this project to be picked up again.

OK well thanks for the reponse. Hopefully it gets picked up again soon. Also, idk if anyone cares as it was just a spriteswap and was not updated for that reason but i've updated the Squirtle character anyway, and i've got a few other characters (though idk how to code so they are just kinda a mishmash of moves from other characters as well as having different types and stats) if you wanted.
EDIT: Also i should mention none of them have alternate palettes as i have no idea how to make them ._.

Thanks :D .These are great....but i do see the problem, with P&M (minor-ish kinda bug but their still cool can't wait to see them fixed) .Can't wait till you can program so certain pokemon have moves the can actully learn or easier for them to learn. Basically correct moves..... If you want i can tell you them moves to give them which already exists in the game so you can switch them. .Keep going .Also for P&M could you make it so one of you is ranged and the other is physical (meaning when you get the bug fixed and can if you can give them different move sets) like make P ranged and M physical cause M is able to do attacks more while P is stasis (or doing a ranged attack) if P does a physical it seems to (ocassionally) stop M from attacking as M is forced to follow/move....... or leave it the way it is and just see if you can fix M from moving during P's attack as P attacking during M's attack doesn't seem to cancel M's attack. Also M needs stop attack even after winning/losing. Or easy route stop M attacking after Winning/losing and P from duplicating during battle(the bug fixes). Or link them as one character and make the attacks simply go twice (seems more fitting for a different kinda pokemon tho). Just suggestions or thoughts to maybe help. :D

These are good suggestions, and i may use them in the future, but even getting M to work at all was a huge pain so i'm going to take a break from the character for a bit, but i will be adding to it soon hopefully.

Hi All,
This is really the only time I'm going to make official mention of PCEA System B here because it's got very little to do with M.U.G.E.N at this point. When the time comes, I'll ask the mods about posting a link to the project here, but there's a good chance that I won't be able to due to it technically being off topic. Anyways, it's been a while since I was last able to really focus on anything GMS (GameMaker Studio) related, and since then the engine has been updated to version 2, which I have a valid license for now. Having that said, the old PCEA system I was working on isn't compatible with GMS 2, because it was originally written in GMS 1.4. It needs a proper conversion yet. I'm hoping that nothing gets lost, but I might have to rewrite the system.
In the end, the game will not be available here, but on GameJolt most likely. Thanks to @TxPot who's kept this project alive after I gave him the source two years ago. My, how times flies. Well, that's it for me, for now. If you have any questions about the GMS version of PCEA, PM me, as it is considered off-topic to this thread.

Woah, this topic ballooned quickly! After Garchompmatt/PlasmoidThunder posted, I didn't think anyone was interested, despite me still working on it. Thanks for the replies, I'll address them now:
Also, what are the plans for the next Pokemon to be added?
In the case that you meant everyone and not just TrinitroRoy, here are my plans:
*High Priority* Goodra (Needs a ton of sprites) Toxapex (Needs a ton of sprites) Golurk (Needs a ton of sprites) Torterra (20%, but needs a ton of sprites)
As you can see, I try to have a library of unique types of pokemon across the board. I even deviate a little from JoshR's spritework in the case of Ribombee/Toxapex because most of it is based on the portrait pictures.
EDIT: Also plz nerf Mist weather, you miss far too much and it makes Snorlax unbearable to fight
As it stands, it reduces your accuracy by 40%, to reflect being hit twice by an accuracy-reducing move. I like the idea of misty weather in general, but what would be a better setting for mist? Would it be okay if it was 25%, or what do you have in mind?
Versus mode was redundant at the time, and it was only removed simply to shorten the amount of "options" you can choose from, and thus reduce clutter of the title screen. In the same way as "Team arcade", I can make Versus mode be the same in that you can select between Single, Simul, and Turns mode, though the screen will suffer as I would have to squeeze it in somehow.
However, progress is currently halted since last time I heard, Project Catch 'Em All is still on hiatus. In other words, I'm literally just waiting for work on this project to be picked up again.
Project Catch 'Em All is now slowly picking up, thanks to all of you! You can still create for this, TrinitroRoy. I haven't stopped working on this, though my ideas for this is starting to run out...
Sure DimG, heres the download link to Squirtle and my other characters (These are still WIP as none of them have alternate palletes and one of them still has a few bugs)
Some feedback for your characters:
*Sharpedo*
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. Its standing animation doesn't animate through frames. It's only moving up and down. You should add the other two frames that Joshr had in his animation.
2. All of its hit collisions need work. Though the standing collisions are a bit too big for the pokemon, you should use it for all other animations since all the others is shorter than the standing animation.
3. Icy Wind deals 11 hits of 8 damage. You need to reduce the hits or the damage to match the power of the attack itself. A suggestion would be 5 hits of 11 damage. a. There is no sound for when the attack hits the opponent.
4. Aqua jet has a sound playing for being hit before you jet forwards.
5. Agility has hit sounds playing throughout the entire move.
*Dunsparce*
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. Strength is weird. It has Dunsparce shake the screen like an earthquake, and then it stops as soon as it reaches the foe. Is any of this intentional?
2. Flamethrower and Ice Beam have a sound playing for being hit from the attack as soon as you start attacking with it.
*Pichu*
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. It must be a reference to Smash Bros, because the Electric moves all hurt Pichu for 5/10/15 HP respectively for each move going down the movelist.
2. Its collisions need to be bigger simply because certain attacks won't be able to hit it. The template of Kung Fu Man in the game itself has a collision that's the lowest you can go in its standing animation that you can reference for this.
*Plusle and Minun*
I like the idea of it, but as it stands, they're broken because Minun attacks independently of the player, regardless of intros and when the battle starts. I honestly thought you would have the sprites be joined up, so it seems that they're attacking in tandem to show their similar fighting style.
f you'll make a beta 4 with bigger roster and pvp and will release new pokemons weekly I'll donate 9 dollars every month, just make sure to link me the patreon I know it's not a lot but it's ment to motivate u
Though I can't do Patreon as that is physically demanding to both me and my internet, I'll happily let you donate to my Paypal if you want, as a sign that I'm actually doing something good for the community. It may seem a bit iffy, but at least it's something. Player VS Player can only be done on a M.U.G.E.N clone with online capabilities. I won't go into that yet. I want to be sure that everything is okay here before committing to online gameplay.

Post by: poiuygfd on July 21, 2018, 03:31:30 pm
Wow, that is a lot to take in. I am looking forward to Azumarill and Golurk the most, the other Pokemon seem cool too. I also would be happy for the return of a vs. mode. Also in terms of the characters that are low priority and may be scrapped, plz don't scrap Pyukumuku. Not only is it one of my fave Pokemon but it could also make for a really unique character due to its kind of passive nature and unorthodox way of battling in the games.
Thanks for the feedback as well, i'm probably going to fix these characters once i learn how to add palettes (Also yes Pichu damaging itself is a reference to Smash Bros.). The system of Minun attacking independantly was kind of a last ditch effort after my attemtps at making them attack in tandem whilst remaining separate didn't work, but i rushed it and now there is a lot of problems.
Once i fix up Sharpedo, Dunsparce and Pichu (and Squirtle in terms of palettes) i am going to try and re-attempt my original idea, which is to have Minun attacking at the same time but with a slight delay (they are separate because they kind of suck individually stat wise, and i thought it would be more interesting), However if i am still unable to figure out how to make this work i will just polish up the current system (So Minun won't attack during intro and victory, and so that its timer isn't reset by Plusle moving). Also I was thinking maybe around 33% for mist missing, so it isn't too low, but isn't frustrating to battle in.

Alright, Versus Mode will stay in. As for Pyukumuku, he's interesting enough that I won't scrap him, but making moves for him will be challenging. On the bright side, if I make him fun to play with despite his shortcomings, Wobbuffet will be easy to make as well!
Thanks for the feedback as well, i'm probably going to fix these characters once i learn how to add palettes (Also yes Pichu damaging itself is a reference to Smash Bros.).
Don't worry about the palettes too much. In the worst case, I can create the palettes for you after you've finalised the character, though whether you want more than three colours or not depends on personal preferences.
Also I was thinking maybe around 33% for mist missing, so it isn't too low, but isn't frustrating to battle in.
I decided on a compromise with your suggestion and the Mist's Accuracy Reduction by setting it to 30%. Therefore, a 100% accurate move will now be reduced to 70% accuracy.
Since I have a lot of free variables, I decided to try and implement Stat Reductions. If I can get it to work without too much hassle on both the user creating their own and the system frame rate dropping, it will be a huge milestone and will be part of Beta 4, among a bunch of bug fixes and updates.

Alright once i get a bit of free time, Sharpedo is my first priority for fixing up since it seems to be the most problematic (other than Plusle / Minun). I have also created a two palettes for it which would make 4 total with the original and shiny versions, they will be below. Let me know what you think, I personally like them both but am willing to change them.

The palettes are okay, though I prefer the Camerupt one simply because of the "vivid-ness" of the colours.
Also stat reductions would be pretty cool if you can get them working, looking forward to seeing progress on that front.
Currently, Attack/Special Attack and Defence/Special Defence is implemented. As a preview as to what to expect, an explanation of the stats in this game:
Both kinds of attack and defence stats, and the Accuracy stat, will follow the original main-line games of stat reductions.
The Speed stat will directly influence the time it takes for the ATB bar to fill to maximum, up to 50% increase/decrease at maximum/minimum speed. Imagine Diancie's Rock Polish as it is in this game, except it's being applied to everyone.
The Evasion stat is the only one that's hard to implement. Instead of a set percentage, it is increased/decreased as a whole number. As the number can't go below 1 because it causes accuracy problems, and everyone starts at 3 to Evasion, it means that the reductions can't go below two reductions to Evasion. Meanwhile, an attack that is 30% accurate will be 90% accurate on an opponent with 1 Evasion.

Sorry it took so long to respond, i've been pretty busy and also been setting up my new computer. I was also originally hoping to release the updated versions of each character together but Plusle/Minun is still far from completion, so instead i will just release them later. The updated versions of Pichu, Sharpedo and Dunsparce can be found below:
http://www.mediafire.com/?7m50xej6vkv76
In the spoiler below is the changelog
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Pichu: Increased the size of collision boxes to the minimum
Dunsparce: Fixed glitch with Strength when Dunsparce moves towards the foe Flamethrower and Ice Beam now correctly use sounds Slight increase in height of collisions Slight increase in recharge time of ATB for each move to make him slightly less powerful
Sharpedo: New idle and walking animations to have more movement Icy Wind is now a single projectile instead of many Audio problems with each move fixed Agility's animation is a lot smoother Decrease in Icy Wind's ATB recharge time to compensate for shorter attack period Collisions now all same size instead of some being strangely small
As for Plusle/Minun, they have a long way to go to be 100% complete, but I may release a much less buggy version in the near future.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on August 13, 2018, 10:40:14 pm
The updated versions of Pichu, Sharpedo and Dunsparce can be found below:
Feedback for your characters:
*Sharpedo*
1. Though you did add extra frames in its standing and moving animation, its animation frames are 0-1-2-1-0 (or 3-4-5-4-3 in the case of moving), which looks bad since it causes Sharpedo to shake its head continuously, as if on a vicious cycle of saying no to something. You should set the animation to 0-1-0-2-0 (or 3-4-3-5-3 in the case of moving) for a smoother transition.
2. Icy wind is a bit worse than before. Though you did follow what I said regarding damage, Sharpedo coughing up a single cloud of mist is rather lackluster. I would suggest you increase the number of projectiles just to get that "windy" effect, like you did before this update, but ignore this if that's a personal preference.
3. Aqua Jet's "Aqua Effect" helper disengages from the player as soon as the player stops to attack the opponent. I suggest you make the move a full-screen ramming attack instead, since the "stop and bite" attack is in Night Slash already. a. The helper never disappears from the field; have enough of them, and you won't be able to use any helpers anymore! Put a "DestroySelf" state in the helper's statedef and adjust it so that it disappears after the main part of the attack ends. b. When attacking, the collision shrinks down to a smaller size instead of the new size you gave it. c. The sounds are wrong for the attack itself; Charging forwards is an "attack swoosh", while the actual hit is a "weapon swoosh".
*Dunsparce*
1. Strength takes forever to attack, simply because its animation and moving time is too long. You need to speed it all up, since it's very unreliable as-is.
2. I know you're using effects from other characters, but Ice Beam needs a fitting effect for it. The icicles simply don't work for it. You may need to look at other characters or games outside of this project for effects.
*Pichu*
1. Only the standing, moving, and hurt animations have the fixed collisions; every other animation switches back to the original ones, including the attack collisions.

Project Catch-em All Beta 4
Hello everyone!
Here is Beta 4. It's not as big or influential as the previous version, but it's a big milestone since you can now program more moves into the game! Unfortunately, you'll have to re-download the entire game again, since ALL the Pokemon got updated...again...
Here's a quick list as to what is added:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
1. Stat Decreases have been implemented. In addition, the previous system of Stat Increases/Decreases have been scrapped in favor of a more "global" system. 2. In addition to the above, all Pokemon that could reduce stats at any time but didn't due to not having this system in place will now have it implemented. 3. Added Ribombee and Azumarill to the game. 4. Versus mode added in on request. It's the same as "Arcade" mode in terms of functionality.
Read the CHARACTER INFO.txt and Developer Reference.txt files for details.
Screenshots:
(https://i.imgur.com/VRtJ7Wx.png)
The previous Mediafire link should be updated with the game, but in the case you've missed it:
Don't bother with the "Update" file; that file is now useless since everything it added to the game as a quick-fix is already added.
Short list of System Changes:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*General System*
1. Stat reductions can be implemented in the game now! This uses the integer variables 10-15 and float variables 35-39. The speed stat changes the maximum ATB of a move as a percentage, while evasion is a whole number that has a maximum range of 1-9 (For reference, Evasion starts at 3 as standard for all Pokemon). All stat reductions except Speed, Evasion and Accuracy use a direct percentage to influence its values. 2. Weather code has been updated so there are two "Clear Weather" options. The second one uses 9 as the value, and it's used for stages that change its weather depending on preferences.
*Pokemon*
1. Because of the code that changes weather depending on preferences, Espeon, Umbreon, and Leafeon have their healing moves updated to reflect the changes. 2. Fixed bug with Omastar's Protect not working right in Simul. 3. Due to Generation 7, the stat boosts of Manaphy's Tail Glow and Diancie's Diamond Storm are increased by one level. 4. Leafeon's resistances to Electric is set to the correct value. 5. Pikachu's collisions have been optimised to the standard lowest possible collision within Kung Fu Man, to have a lesser chance of missing attacks. 6. Mewtwo's projectiles for Psystrike won't hit anyone until they start homing on the target. 7. Castform now has some custom A.I implemented. To try it out, you must set the A.I difficulty to 7 or higher. [/quote]
Can't wait to see if anyone has any new mons?...... Its been a bit ssince anyone has said anything
Sorry this took so long, everyone. I'll start working on the backlog of my Pokemon now. Maybe I can implement the ability to use items during battle before the end of the year.
I've had a thought. Some attacks implemented in this game can affect your own teammate in the real games. For example, Surf can hit your own ally, as well as all enemies. Though this may be detrimental as a whole, it could implement a form of team synergy, especially with Abilities turned on (Lapras healing Vaporeon with Surf, for example). Assuming it can be implemented, should this be implemented at all, or should I leave it as-is?
In addition, Pokemon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness had Shadow Pokemon that could be implemented into the game. Their moveset is filled with shadow moves, which are super effective on non-shadow Pokemon and resisted by other shadow Pokemon, and shadow Pokemon start with a 50% speed boost (probably 1 level speed) in battle. What does everyone think of this? Should this be implemented at all?

I don't really know how to say this, but i may have forgotten about my characters and stuff after i got a new PC. it wasn't until just now i remembered about all this. I've started uni now so idk when i will be able to work on my characters, but i'll let you know if and when i make any progress. Also, the new beta is great and the new characters are pretty fun,and it would be cool to add in moves like surf hurting (or healing) your partner. Shadow Pokemon are also a good idea, i remember seeing a shadow lugia for an older release of this, maybe you could implement it as a boss too?
Also once again i don't know when i will get time to work on this between assignments but i've got a few plans for new character. Whether these come into existance or not is another thing but i have got a few more ideas.

Don't worry about it. This project isn't going anywhere, so do what you have to do.
Progress-wise, I've just tested Lapras' Surf on a couple of things:
When with a Water Absorb user as an ally, it doesn't heal the ally at all. I can only assume its to do with the code within the Water Absorb character itself, not of the attacker.
Interestingly, if the type is changed to Grass, and then used with Azumarill's Sap Sipper as an ally, it activates Sap Sipper properly.
In both of those examples, its the code within the character itself that influences whether characters' Abilities work properly. I'll have to try and re-code Water Absorb, but I need to find out what's wrong with it. Otherwise, hitting your ally is very doable indeed.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 05, 2018, 09:21:53 pm
Alright I decided I wanted to at least do something after my long absence so I've got a few things to share. Firstly is the updated version of Pichu. As the only changes I needed to make were to its attacking collisions it was a pretty easy and quick change to make, and hopefully assuming I haven't missed something Pichu should only be missing its palettes. Speaking of which, I have created a few sample palettes like I did for Sharpedo. Once those are added or some other palettes depending on feedback, Pichu should finally be my first complete character. Below you can find both the download link and the two palettes I made (plz give feedback, I am happy to make some more):
Palette 1: The more normal palette, personally I just like the combination of the blue and green (https://i.imgur.com/nZvDFOO.png)
Palette 2: Demonchu (don't take it too seriously) (https://i.imgur.com/vF5U0xf.png)
Next is something I made myself a while ago but never shared. It always annoyed me that if you added the test character (Poke Man) to the select screen it would have kfm's head as opposed to a Pokemon style party icon. So I went ahead and made one (based off of Sawk's one) as well as mystery dungeon-ified his portrait thing in battle. For anyone else interested below is the sff file that you just replace the one in the existing kfm folder to get my custom edited sprites.
Finally I'd just like to say thanks for adding versus mode back :3 as well as ask one question: will the stat raising and lowering system added affect my characters and are there any changes I will need to make? edit: typos

Feedback:
1. I would suggest adding "kill = 0" to the "LifeAdd" code, so Pichu doesn't actually kill himself with his moves if your HP is low enough.
2. The palettes themselves are okay, but you must remember to keep the second palette as the "shiny" palette, only for consistency's sake for the other Pokemon.
Otherwise, he's good enough to be added to the cast. If you're happy with everything else, i'll add him in as part of beta 5.

*chuckle* That's some good effort there! The nose on the "Mystery Dungeon" portrait though... *laughs* I will keep it though! It'll be standard to the template, while other people can change to the original if they want.
Finally I'd just like to say thanks for adding versus mode back :3 as well as ask one question: will the stat raising and lowering system added affect my characters and are there any changes I will need to make?
You need to update any previous characters with the following information.
In the updated characters, you should find a block of code that looks like this in the start of each move:
Code:
[State 500, Set ATB] type = Null trigger1 = !time trigger1 = var(0):=floor((250)*fvar(38)) && var(8):=0 && var(9):=floor((100)*fvar(39))
Variable 0 and variable 9 has to have the code changed to the above. If the previous looked like this:
And in that moment, I forgot to update the Kung Fu Man template and the Developer Reference.txt file to the new system changes... :( An update will pop up soon.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 07, 2018, 01:58:18 pm
Huh, I didn't know there was a way to stop Pichu killing itself, thanks for that one, I've added it now. I also intended from the beginning to have his shiny palette be one of the palettes, that's why i only created two because with the default and shiny colours that made four palettes, to have a unique colour for if the player picks Pichu four times. I actually have no idea how to add palettes so I will work on figuring that out, and then when I have i will release the (hopefully) final version of Pichu.
I also didn't even realise just how silly the mystery dungeon like portrait's nose looked, I have fixed it now and it overall looks better. Not spectacular, but a lot better than before I feel. The updated sff file can be downloaded below:
Finally I want to talk about my plan for the other characters. My primary goal right now is to finish Pichu, as it seems easier to try focusing all my efforts on perfecting each character individually.
Next will be Dunsparce as it seems to be the quicker to fix and get the final version released. I have already fixed Dunsparce's Strength attack, it is just a matter of finding a new projectile effect for Ice Beam (I was thinking maybe of using the crystals from the gen 3 animation but edited to look clear) and to add the palettes, as well as any other changes that anyone finds would be beneficial.
Sharpedo is after, although it seems like it could take a bit longer between my tight schedule and it needs some better changes such as overhauling Icy Wind and finding and implementing a better effect for Aqua Jet. I also need to ask: what do the new stats systems do to affect its Agility? will the move need to be recoded and if so what should I do to change it?
Finally is Plusle & Minun. These characters are... broken. I am still unsure of what I'm going to do with them. Worst case scenario i cancel the character or more likely i just add both of them to the same sprite. A more boring character but at least it would function. However, i am not giving up yet so don't worry. I am also going to try once again to see if i can add the original system i had in mind for them. Originally my plan was for a button press to cause both of them to attack, although Minun would have a very slight delay, so i may try to add this again, although i can't make any guarantees. If i feel like it i may also try to re add the system where Minun can also get hurt, although this is only to disrupt its attacks as Minun can't faint (I previously gave up on this because Minun kept turning into Plusle and just standing there). If i can't get these guys to work then i will make a start on changing them to be in the same sprite.

I also didn't even realise just how silly the mystery dungeon like portrait's nose looked, I have fixed it now and it overall looks better. Not spectacular, but a lot better than before I feel.
I also need to ask: what do the new stats systems do to affect its Agility? will the move need to be recoded and if so what should I do to change it?
The new system doesn't do anything for customized Agility; Other than the variable that controls the ATB speed, there's nothing else that supports it. I left this in place in the event that someone would want an Agility that lasts for a few turns instead of decreasing the Max ATB bar permanently, but this means that both can stack, resulting in an extremely fast pokemon.
Thus, you can either have a custom Agility that's what Scyther uses, or can go the more traditional route and increase Speed by 2 levels every time (Diancie's Rock Polish). Though Sharpedo already has Scyther's agility, it's set to a high number that can make it overpowered.

Ok just thought I'd post an update: Firstly, Pichu is coming along nicely. I've added 2 extra palettes, but can't seem to get the other 3 (I've decided to go with 6 palettes rather than 4) to show up, presumably because the Pikachu character used as a base only has 3 palettes. Once I figure it out and get the other 3 palettes working, Pichu will be complete as I have also stopped it from killing itself. Next, as you may have noticed, I changed my name. it is also my name on Pokemon Showdown ans I've been changing a bunch of other accounts to it, so thats why that changed. Finally, i have decided on the next 2 characters I'm going to make when I finish the ones that are currently in progress.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 11, 2018, 02:58:04 pm
Ok so I've been pretty exited to start working on these characters and I've kind of done more than i was anticipating. Not only have I updated Pichu to hopefully the final version, complete with all 6 palettes and it no longer killing itself:
I have also updated the updated version of the Squirtle character with the new changes, as well as slightly reducing the time it takes for its moves to recharge to make it not just a worse Blastoise.
Finally I've also updated Dunsparce with 6 palettes, a faster, less buggy version of Strength complete with a new hit animation effect, and I've changed Ice Beam's appearence and sounds to make it more like the gen 3 version of the move, overall looking much better than its old animations. I've also slightly increased its recharging times as they were a bit too fast and made Dunsparce very strong as well as removing the fact Dunsparce had STAB on Ice Beam and Flamethrower because I'm stupid. I won't say its the final build for Dunsparce like with Pichu because there is likely something I missed but it may be.

Feedback:
*Dunsparce*
1. Strength doesn't have any hit-sounds at all when hitting the opponent. a. It's still slow to attack, making the move seem clunky to use. I think it's the problem of the whole transition of the attack itself; Dunsparce does some sort of animation at the beginning, then flies towards the opponent slower than he does returning to his original spot, and then does some sort of headbutt-like attack. Most Pokemon with melee attacks that can get right up your face can out-speed Dunsparce in that regard.
2. I don't like Ice Beam's effects. I know it's different from before, but to me, it doesn't look the part of an icy beam attack. It's like it's spewing snowflakes in perfect unison that periodically disappear and reappear.
*Squirtle*
1. The Attack Menu in the fighting screen doesn't match the Attack Menu in the Pokemon Selection screen.
2. Bubble Beam's bubbles appear in two different places at once, with one of the places being away from Squirtle's face.

Quick question, how would one go adjusting the rate Ice Beam freezes at? I've made a new Ice Beam that features more projectiles than before and it seems to freeze more frequently now, and its a bit OP. How would I go around toning down this chance? Once that is done, I will be ready to release the next version of Dunsparce, as I have fixed and sped up Strength by removing the starting animation and adding a hit sound, and Ice Beam has a more fitting animation and sound now.

The piece of code here within the ice beam's projectile state in [StateDef 531] has a code you modify to change the rate of activation:
Code:
[State VarSet] type = VarSet triggerall = random <= 10 ; modify this number trigger1 = time = 0 v = 0 value = 1
Change the number for the activation chance. The activation chance is 10% (99 due to Random's maximum value of 999) divided by the number of hits Ice Beam deals. The above would deal 10 hits of 1% chance each.

Heres the newest version of Dunsparce, hopefully this version's Ice Beam looks better. Strength also improved as mentioned before.

Feedback:
1. Dunsparce's Strength still doesn't have any hit-sounds at all when hitting the opponent. However, the attack is much better than before.
2. Ice Beam actually looks better now, though the sound with the beam firing could do with a replacement to sound beam-like. As a sort of visual improvement, maybe you could add a mist-like effect that blows at Dunsparce's mouth in the same way as Vanilluxe's Blizzard, to simulate the beam being quite cold.

Thanks. I've added a mist effect as well as changed some sound effects. It seems like an improvement but I'm still not sure whether the new sound effects are that great, but only one way to find out. New link is here:
Also, on an unrelated note, what would be the best way to implement Submission as a move? Its had so many animations and I'm not even sure how it would work. Its for a current WIP of mine (I don't feel like working on Sharpedo right now so I've decided to go on ahead with one of my planned characters. Submission is actually the last move needed for it to be completed in the first version, although it will need some work)

Feedback:
1. The sound for Ice Beam hitting the opponent is worse than before. What I meant by "the sound with the beam firing" in the previous comment is the sound that plays when the beam is actually fired, not when the beam is hitting the opponent. The original sound you had for hitting the opponent is better for the job than it is now.
2a. Meanwhile, The sound for Strength doesn't really fit the attack itself. I would suggest the game's own hit sounds of the below:
Code:
hitsound = F0,0
b. In addition, it plays twice; once right before the attack hits, and another when the attack hits the opponent.
Also, on an unrelated note, what would be the best way to implement Submission as a move? Its had so many animations and I'm not even sure how it would work.
Going by Generation 3's Submission animation, a grab attack would be an option. Check out the way Azumarill's Play Rough works, and then add in the recoil damage at the end.

Well, it isn't a better sound, but the ones I'm providing you with may or may not be as useful, and it's the only thing I can think of now.
Download the below file and add them to the character:
The file named "Weapons_1a.wav" is meant to be played on a loop until the attack ends. The other file is meant to be played as soon as the beam is fired. Both files came from here:
In addition, Ice Beam deals 60 damage over 20 hits. It should be 90 damage to match the power of the original game itself.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: poiuygfd on November 12, 2018, 09:45:48 pm
Thanks for the sounds, although now I'm confused as to how damage calculation is done. I'm comparing the damage output to Flamethrower in game and they seem about the same, and both do more damage than Thunderbolt which is set as a 90 base power single hit attack... Also, should i replace the hit sound with the sound to be looped or loop that and have the hit sound there too?

Thanks for the sounds, although now I'm confused as to how damage calculation is done. I'm comparing the damage output to Flamethrower in game and they seem about the same, and both do more damage than Thunderbolt which is set as a 90 base power single hit attack...
Basically, the original game has every attack being calculated as one hit (except natural, multi-hitting ones like Triple Kick). Attacks such as Flamethrower, and this game's Flash Cannon, are treated as one hit, dealing accurate damage.
However, said calculation doesn't take into account multiple hits, and thus each hit of an attack is calculated individually, with some hits returning more damage than others. In addition, the more hits a move requires (for this game only), the more damage the move deals, despite being accurate to the game. This is the reason why certain attacks deal more damage than other attacks.
As a guideline to this, I would advocate NOT to have too many hits within a single attack, so the calculation doesn't return more damage than necessary. Otherwise, opponents that resist a certain type of attack won't have as much damage reduction as they should have. Ice Beam, if set to the correct value, will deal 90+ damage over 20 hits, which is insane compared to 90+ damage over 10 hits, because there is less returned damage to divide by resistance value.
Also, should i replace the hit sound with the sound to be looped or loop that and have the hit sound there too?
The hit sound you had originally (the freeze-hitting sound) is good enough. I'm talking about the beam's startup that needs the sound. The sounds in the file are meant to be used within Dunsparce and not in the beam itself.
Under normal circumstances, you would use something like this within the character:
Code:
;character state [State PlaySnd];non-loop type = PlaySnd trigger1 = time = ? value = S#,#
[State PlaySnd];loop sound type = PlaySnd trigger1 = time = ? value = S#,# channel = 3 loop = 1
[State StopSnd];stop loop sound type = StopSnd trigger1 = time = ? channel = 3
Basically, both sounds need to be played right before the beam comes out. The looping sound is prevented from playing continuously right before the attack ends, but if you're hit out of the move, the Statedef -3 code prevents it from playing repeatedly even while out of the state.

Welp this is the next version of Dunsparce. I've added in those sound effects and changed Ice Beam to be 90 base powerish even if it is a very high amount of damage (might make Dunsparce not terrible for once haha).
Also one more thing that I'd like you to give me some feedback on if possible please. This is the charatcer I've been working on for the majority of the past few days over the weekend and its finally in a stage where it is playable. The animation of the first move is temporary and the other moves could probably be doing with a bit of an improvement too but let me know what you think:

The non-looping sound needs the time to activate be set to the same as the looping sound, or otherwise:

Feedback for the "other" Pokemon:
1a. It's a pure Flying type. If this is the Pokemon from Red/Blue/Yellow, it should also be part-Normal, as its resistances are wrong. b. Its base stats are also wrong as well, as I can't find a reference of it from any other website at this time.
2a. Water Gun's droplets have a huge collision box for its size, nearly triple the size of the projectile itself. b. It also moves slowly, and breaks apart and disappears after a very small distance. At its best, it won't even hit the opponent unless they move forward or they're Steelix.
3a. Double-Edge has a "woosh" sound that plays before the opponent is hit, and no sound plays upon hitting the opponent. b. There's a huge ground-shaking effect after hitting the floor for some reason.
4a. Submission has no recoil damage for the user at all. b. The attack is very bizarre; when hit, the enemy slides around in a semi-circle while floating (???) for a long time before they finally land, complete with a dust effect that trails the user, then flies off and goes away for whatever reason??? Play Rough would've been a better interpretation of this attack, but ignore this if it's intentional. c. Sometimes, the user fails to complete the move; it hits the opponent, but then goes back to its original spot while the enemy just stands there. This is because of a "ChangeState" code that activates before the user can put the opponent in the relative states. d. The sound playing when the opponent is hit doesn't need to be that long; Rather than make a long .WAV file, a small sound effect of a "swoosh" sound can be made to play repeatedly just by code alone.
5. Sky Attack has collision problems at the end of the attack, in that they don't cover up the Pokemon at all.
So the Pokemon plays like a glass cannon...that has only one wheel. And has the weirdest moveset I've seen yet. It needs a lot of work as it's a complete mess, but I'm willing to drop much of its aesthetics if this is part of its glitchy nature.

FINALLY!!!! After seeing the comment about Plusle and Minun, I decided to try my hand at creating the old system i wanted implemented, which was to allow the two to attack simultaneously like the Ice Climbers from Smash Bros. I was going to do it after finishing the two characters I'm currently working on but after seeing the current system wasn't exactly a popular pick, I spent some time trying to see if i could actually make my original concept work, and I actually did it!!! I'm just going to adjust some things as I want Minun to have a slight delay but shortly I will release the updated Plusle and Minun where they attack simultaneously at the press of a button. I don't think I've felt this happy creating a character yet!

Heres an updated version of Plusle and Minun with the new old system in place. Its still far from the final version as I'm sure there are changes I can make and it also lacks palettes but its a major step in the right direction I feel.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 13, 2018, 11:35:03 pm
Last post (for now), no more spam I promise, but just in regards to the "other" Pokemon:
I accidentally put Defence and Special Attack the other way around, as well as miscalculated the Defence stat, both problems have been fixed
The typing issue was fixed. I had the neutrality to fighting, I just forgot the ghost immunity.
Submission's animation is intentional. It was meant to represent the gen 3, but more 4/5 animation of the opponent spinning in a circle with the cloud effects. The final animation will probably be faster as well as having the user spinning too, making it closer to the games as well as logical for the recoil to be there (I will also fix that issue too). However, if the animation is unpopular and it would be preferred then i will switch to a Play Rough like animation instead.
Double-Edge's shaking screen effect was intentional, both because of the glitchy nature and to emphasise the power of the impact of the move (kinda hard to do with the Pokemons appearence). I have slightly toned down how much the screen shakes however.
I've still got to do some of the stuff mentioned as well as other stuff such as adjusting Water Gun, so no new release yet, but it shouldn't be too long until i make the next release.

Plusle Minun Feedback:
1. The Pokemon's name is too long for the game itself. If you play Simul with them, the name will overlap or be cropped by the lifebar graphics. "PlusleMinun" is a better alternative to this.
2. Its base stats are wrong. Its Attack/Special Attack is swapped with Defence/Special Defence.
3. The implementation of Minun is weird and full of little problems. Here's a list: a. It doesn't come out of a pokeball, nor does it appear when Plusle appears; It just stands there. It would be great if it walked on the stage as Plusle was being released, as if it's calling for help from its twin ally. b. Minun becomes jarring to watch whenever Plusle moves, because Minun has to follow its ally at the exact spot to stand next to Plusle, and any small changes to that causes Minun to jerk itself while moving between standing and walking. c. Its also completely immune to attacks. Even if this is intentional, at least make it fret over his ally being hurt rather than do nothing but chase them. d. While attacking, it ignores what the ally is doing even if they get hit out of the move they're performing, making its moves uninterruptible. Due to how the code works, this will happen even under paralysis or Spiritomb's Torment. e. Minun doesn't perform its win pose with its ally.
3. Because both Pokemon are attacking with the same attacks, you should halve the base power of both moves or reduce the number of projectiles by half, because both Pokemon are effectively dealing double damage.
4. Sometimes, Signal Beam may cause clones of Plusle to appear when it clashes with other projectiles.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: poiuygfd on November 14, 2018, 10:52:29 am
Alright, just wanted to say a few things about Plusle and Minun:
Firstly, most of the changes you mentioned were on my list, so don't worry about that.
However, when it comes to the base stats, those stats are Plusle's stats. Yes, for Minun, they are the wrong way around but I don't even know how I could even implement Minun having its own base stats.
The idea was for them to both attack therefore dealing double damage, as it makes them a kind of glass cannon where they have awful defences but hit hard. That is also why I went with moves like Spark and Swift as opposed to Thunderbolt or other more powerful moves, to kind of counteract this otherwise ridiculous power. For now, I have just made the ATB take longer to charge for each move but if you really think the character would be too good otherwise, then I could halve the base power, just let me know
I actually already have an intro animation for Minun created, where it was sleeping on the ground and wakes up once Plusle is sent out (I just hadn't figured out how to add it in), but again if you think it running in from the side would be a better intro then i will change it.
Also, I notice you didn't give any critique on Dunsparce and the moved sound, does this mean the sound is good enough for Dunsparce to be finished?
edit: i forgot to mention a point

Since the two are together, why not combine and then average out both stats, or give the character their strongest stats of the two? With the two of them, they could have Plusle's higher Attack, and Minun's higher Defence.
I actually already have an intro animation for Minun created, where it was sleeping on the ground and wakes up once Plusle is sent out (I just hadn't figured out how to add it in), but again if you think it running in from the side would be a better intro then i will change it.
I honestly think it would be better that way, as it would look like Minun is being called out, rather than it following the trainer and then waiting until Plusle comes out.
Also, I notice you didn't give any critique on Dunsparce and the moved sound, does this mean the sound is good enough for Dunsparce to be finished?
Yes, its good enough at this point. Although in the move to the full roster, I may add in their abilities and do some small bug fixing and fiddling with aesthetics on my own, it's just to iron out things I didn't see originally.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 14, 2018, 01:46:01 pm
Thats fine, do what you will to Dunsparce as I frankly haven't a clue as to adding its abilities in.
As for Plusle and Minun heres the next release. They are still far from completion but this is a slightly more stable version Also I'm including a changelog here because i feel like i should point out the changes.
Minun's intro (the sleeping one for now) has been added as well as a victory animation (same as Plusles)
Minun has a "hurt" state, which it enteres whenever Plusle enters a hurt state, stopping what it is doing and preventing it from attacking (its still a bit buggy but its a start at least).
Minun also has gravity now because i noticed it would get stuck in midair sometimes.
Again as mentioned before I've increased the recharge time on every move
Again as mentioned before I've increased the recharge time on every move
The stats have been adjusted. I decided to go the route of combining and averaging the stats, as I don't want to make them too good
There are still a few things I haven't figured out, namely why Signal Beam creates copies of Plusle when collided with, and why Minun is still a bit jerky, and it still lacks palettes. Another thing i noticed was when Clefable used Body Slam on it the Plusle copies were also created, so i really have no idea what the trigger is for that occuring, but its a much more stable build overall.

The problem is, you're using a helper that links to "Statedef 513" called "Signal Beam Effect", but its animation is invalid, so it defaults to one that has collisions, causing the problem. Because the original user (Manaphy) had eye effects that isn't present here, either get rid of the helper, or add in the correct effect for it.
One other thing: A debug flood of "Player ## has no root" appears throughout the fight. Also, Plusle's cry doesn't play, and there's no cry for Minun.

I won't accept Raichu and Sandshrew in this project at this time. They are both sprite-swaps of their respective evolutions. Raichu is the worst of all, since he's a sprite-swap of Pikachu from the OLD project (he has the old system in place, including the critical hits copied from my Lapras at the time), which is considered defunct and won't be supported. However, I'm willing to consider Raichu if you make an Alolan version of him, with a better moveset that isn't copied from anyone else, and updated to match the newest project's code.

Heres a small update for Plusle and Minun, fixing the Signal Beam glitch, adding in the other 5 palettes and fixing issues with cries so both Pokemon's cries play during the intro and win animations:
edit: Also while it may not be a part of the main roster I like Sandshrew a lot so I will use it, but would you maybe be able to make it a bit different from Sandslash first? So make sure it has Sandshrew's stats, not Sandslash's, and maybe make the moves recharge quicker to compensate for lower stats? And if you could make an Alolan Raichu that would be awesome

All finished creations will be added to that file as well. The creator order is based on when they released something at the time of the project's first appearance, though I tend to deviate a little since I don't know everyone's exact time of making something. You can make a little paragraph about the Pokemon, but it isn't needed at all; it's just to give some insight into why the Pokemon came into being or some other random information.
also also is plusle, minun andpichu suppose to be paralyzable?
When the Pokemon is finished to the best of the creator's ability, I add in their permanent resistances to certain status. This is because doing so requires modifying the common1.cns file, and I don't allow anyone to modify and upload that file outside of their copy of the game, to prevent the game systems clashing with other people's copies or even the official download itself.

I showed the chars to see if you could think to make a raichu and sandshrew in the future. Also It would be cool if you made a raichu and sandshrew with custom moves

And are planning to make a squritle and pichu cause if these are yours they don't have a custom move set which I don't like. I feel like they should have moves they would have first before they evolved. Now I know you worked hard but i feel like you should add aleast 1 move on them.

Pichu is at least different from Pikachu in that its moves recharge faster and it hurts itself in Smash Bros as well as having different stats, whilst Squirtle was just someone elses old character I updated to the newest system, I don't intend on doing anything else with it and am not bothered about whether it ends up in the final roster or not. I was thinking of giving Pichu Sweet Kiss, but I decided against it. I don't even know if confusion is in this game.

In the case you're talking to me regarding the Pokemon you posted:
I'll only work on Raichu once I've done everything important in my backlog. He'll be the Alolan form because I don't approve of multiple single-typed electric Pokemon in general. At least he has a sprite sheet I can use to make the sprites, so he isn't impossible.
In the case that you meant everyone and not just TrinitroRoy, here are my plans:
*High Priority* Goodra (Needs a ton of sprites) Toxapex (Needs a ton of sprites) Golurk (Needs a ton of sprites) Torterra (20%, but needs a ton of sprites)
As you can see, I try to have a library of unique types of pokemon across the board. I even deviate a little from JoshR's spritework in the case of Ribombee/Toxapex because most of it is based on the portrait pictures.
Neither Confusion, Infatuation, or Badly Poisoned exists. Infatuation is because genders don't exist in the game, Badly Poisoned is pointless since most fights seldom last two minutes, and they've been re-purposed in certain Pokemon as "poison that overrides current status" , and Confusion wasn't something I was going to add due to the nature of the game's fighting system.

Post by: poiuygfd on November 18, 2018, 11:40:45 am
Yea i'll get round to fixing it at some point, but atm i've been sinking a lot of time into let's go eevee. Actually not a bad game.

Post by: poiuygfd on December 26, 2018, 10:18:34 pm
Ok so heres an update, i've had a lot of assignments and i've been playing smash and lets go a lot, which is why i have been inactive, but i've got a couple of things. Here is a patch to Plusle and Minun that hopefully stops Minun from falling through the floor (during my testing it didn't occur to me, but theres a chance it could happen)
Sorry this took so long, hope y'all had a great christmas/whichever holiday you may celebrate though. I'll also get back to work at some point on MissingNo. and maybe Sharpdeo too, but for now i'm working on something which should be released very soon.
edit: it is done. As i mentioned, i've been playing lets go a lot, the eevee version specifically. Because eevee is precious and has a lot of variety as the partner form, I made a partner eevee character. Its pretty powerful when using status correctly, have fun, but note there may be bugs as this was thrown together in under a day.

Thanks man. It works fine now. Btw, Partner Eevee? I didn't expect another character already. I don't what to think of this moveset, Cause I play lets go Pikachu. But it's pretty good though. Hmm, maybe at some point Partner Pikachu will be a new char. Also everything is fine with Partner Eevee. Expect... THE POKEMON TRAINER IS EEVEE!!! The trainer Transforms to Eevee for a few seconds then is normal.

Wow, I didn't even see that, mainly because I just used training for testing. Once I figure out the cause i'll fix it. Also, I'm not sure about doing Partner Pikachu because there is already a large amount of pure electric type Pokémon.

There are a lot of electric type pokemon. So I see what your trying to say, (I would be nice for partner pika though) I can't wait for the fix.

Thanks Poiuygfd. Eevee is now the only Eevee in the game. (Stupid Pokémon Trainer, YOUR NOT EEVEE!)Can't wait for another char. Remember, don't rush a char. If it is good,it works, and its special you can take as long as you like.

I've been trying to display that for some time. I don't know what's wrong with the system that prevents me from seeing the necessary sprites for Turns Mode. I have to look into the original MUGEN's files to see where I'm going wrong with it.
edit: it is done. As i mentioned, i've been playing lets go a lot, the eevee version specifically. Because eevee is precious and has a lot of variety as the partner form, I made a partner eevee character. Its pretty powerful when using status correctly, have fun, but note there may be bugs as this was thrown together in under a day.
Feedback:
1. Though Trinitronity once said about having Quick Attack to all the Eeveelutions to make sure the user knows they're all related to each other, you don't have to follow this at all. In addition, Quick attack in itself is outclassed by the other moves you gave it, and it would be better if you gave it Double-Edge or something to make it worthwhile to use.
2. Sizzly Slide would look better if it was Eevee sliding forwards with fire all around it, like Azumarill and Aqua Jet. A jump attack wouldn't convey the action from the move name in itself, though ignore the comment if it's like this in the game.
3. Buzzy Buzz can hit targets anywhere. This is considered overpowered, since it can hit Skarmory and Lugia while flying high, and Sandslash while underground to cancel his dig.
I keep doing this a lot, but sorry for the inconvenience of the lack of updates, everyone. For some reason, Mugen Guild's Notification Settings didn't mail me about posts in this topic, even though I subscribed to it.

No. That was for the older version of this project, and is basically an idea as to how the project would go along for people who wanted to play with more than one Pokemon at a time. It was assumed that it wouldn't appeal to all players due to Pokemon preferences of the individual creating each one, and thus that idea was dropped.

Project Catch-em All Beta 5
Hello everyone!
Here is Beta 5. You can now program even more moves into the game. Unfortunately, you'll have to re-download the entire game again, since ALL the Pokemon got updated...again...
Here's a quick list as to what is added:
1. Dunsparce, Delibird, Pichu, Plusle & Minun, and Wobbuffet added to the game. 2. Items are now implemented. Due to this, the controls have been slightly changed: A/B/X/Y = Select Move, Z = Open Item Menu, C = Switch between pages. 3. Critical hit chance has been re-evaluated and is now slightly more compact to use.
Here's the Mediafire Links, which should be the same as before:
Don't bother with the "Update" file; that file is now useless since everything it added to the game as a quick-fix is already added.
Please inform me of anything that isn't working or causes the game to crash at this point, as I may have overlooked something that isn't mentioned in this post.
Short list of System Changes
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*General System*
1. Due to an oversight with Generation 6's changes, the following things have been changed and/or updated: a. Periodic damage taken from binding moves is now 1/8 instead of 1/16.
2. Certain things have been changed with the system: a. The threshold for using Variable 2 to boost ATB rate is now increased to 5. Therefore, you can make a version of Agility that's similar to Scyther's Agility go higher than 2, right up to 5. Don't go any higher than that, or it will break the system when combined with Tailwind! b. In addition, Pokemon that used this kind of Agility have been changed to interact with Paralysis; Paralysis reduces your ATB recharge rate by setting var(2) to -1 every 3 ticks, then setting it back to normal right afterwards. This kind of agility will now only go up to 1 instead of 2, so their ATB rate won't go up by 3 points per tick while under paralysis. c. Fixed a bug that prevented turn-based statuses (Periodic Healing/Damage, Burn, etc) from failing to activate when the user's ATB is maxed. d. Encore can be made into the game now! However, the main code that causes the ATB to reset to 0 requires the user to stay in the attack state for at least two ticks to prevent bugs with the move, and so all Pokemon have been updated to accommodate this change. e. Safeguard can be made in the game now, but it currently causes anyone to heal out of whatever status they had before the move was used. Otherwise, it works well. f. Fixed a bug that caused the "HP low" warning sound to appear despite HP being higher than 1/4, during a 1-on-2/3/4 turns match. g. Rewrote the way critical hits are attained. There is no need to have fvar(2):=## in any of your Pokemon's states anymore as it's now obsolete, unless you use it to prevent critical hits from occurring in a chosen move (fvar(2):=0;No Critical). However, you need additional coding to get "increased critical rate" moves to work properly, so read the Developer Reference.txt files for details regarding this. h. Changed the Special Defence calculations of Rock-type Pokemon under Sandstorm, and Assault Vest users, to be a direct multiplication of 1.5 rather than dividing the original value by 2, fixing a bug that instead doubled those values.
*Pokemon*
1. Due to Generation 7's changes, the following Pokemon have been updated: a. Vanilluxe now has the "Snow Warning" Ability. It will activate as soon as the battle begins, and will last 5 turns. (Due to the way I program abilities, this means that Vanilluxe is the first Pokemon to have all its abilities activate at the same time!)
2. Various fixes: a. Jigglypuff's Rollout and Venusaur's Razor Leaf is now changed from Special to Physical type. b. Fixed Scyther's Agility bug that would not work properly because of conflicting variables. c. Clefable's Body Slam, Hitmonlee's High Jump Kick, and Croagunk's Brick Break will now target the nearest enemy's last X position. d. Due to an oversight, Clefable didn't have the Non-Type as part of the elemental resistances, and thus any attack that uses it would be unaffected (Counter, etc). This is fixed now. e. Fixed Kingdra/Manaphy's Dive and Sandslash's Dig bug that prevented them from ending the attack early if the fight ended while diving/digging. f. Fixed a bug with Mismagius' helper-based moves interacting with Mirror Coat Pokemon in general; If Mirror Coat is used right after the user gets hit, but before they take damage or go into the enemy's state, they will absorb the hit as usual, but cause Mismagius' helpers to clone into the Mirror Coat user. g. Fixed a bug that caused Counter/Mirror Coat Pokemon to recalculate their current chance-to-hit ratio if they were hit multiple times while their accuracy was lowered. h. Reduced the collision size of all of Pachirisu's physical attacks. i. Pikachu's Standing animation has changed to make him more "mouse-like". [/quote]
*Fixes To Do* 1. Finish the interface for both Simul and non-Simul modes for the Item System. (You can use items in Simul, but the interface doesn't appear properly. That will come at a later update.)
Item System
1. When you have a full ATB bar and the Attack Menu is up, press Z to open the Item Menu. 2. 20 items can be selected for now. Use the directional keys to go through the current list, and press C to move between pages. Highlight the item you want, and press START to use it, or press Z to close the menu. 3. You can only use one item per battle. After using it, you can't use any of the items anymore. Your ATB is then reset to 0 and your Max ATB is set to 100 with no variation or effect on current speed levels.
Abilities and moves that use items to work will perform differently depending on the move, though this is up to creator preferences. Some examples:
Frisk: Removes an opponent's item at the start of battle, acting as if their item is destroyed. Harvest: Can use two items per battle. Bug Bite/Pluck: Removes an opponent's item and gain the effect of a random item. Knock Off: Removes an opponent's item.
Hey Txpot was just wanting to know the process on any of your mons you were working on? or any furthering in the system or more to look foward to also can i get a link to the A version of this project
This IS System A. If you mean System B (ability to switch Pokemon on the fly), that's been taken over by Alexei and has been moved to Game Maker. You'll need to speak to Alexei about it, since that isn't part of this project at all.
Meanwhile, I haven't done much progress with the Pokemon that are still in the works; Torterra, Goodra, Toxapex, and Golurk still need a lot of work done with their sprites, although I have finally separated most of Torterra and Goodra's parts from the sprite. I also added Cradily to this list, but again needs a whole lot of sprites done.
I was thinking of the following; "airjuggle" within the "[Data]" section, "attack.dist" and "proj.attack.dist" within the "[Size]" section of the character's files are unused in the game itself, and so can be used as additional stats for certain Pokemon's parameters, such as Weight or their actual Speed stat, for the purpose of coding the moves Heavy Slam, Electro Ball, and other relevant moves.
Last thing to mention. An update to your earlier question;
Hey.... quick question for the game, if another updated comes out, would it be possible to add a way to see who is next, like for turns battles? if not o well, its not required was just asking
I can't get it to work unfortunately; Every time I enable MUGEN's Lifebars to see the portraits, MUGEN crashes the game with a Windows message. For some reason, ALL of my characters are unaffected by this; the game will work fine anyway so long as you select any Pokemon made by me. This may be because I use an older Sprite format (Winmugen) as opposed to everyone else (MUGEN 1.0/1.1). I don't know whether it's a compatibility problem or conflicting MUGEN versions, but as it currently stands, there is no way to see your opponent's next Pokemon in Turns Mode without the game being generally unplayable.

Wow, awesome update. Items are a really cool addition, and its great to see some of my Pokemon officially in the game. Speaking of my Pokemon, is there any extra code I need to add to my work in progress ones due to the items?
Also I apologise for my lack of updates recently, I have a load of work for uni, but the holidays aren't too far off so I should have plenty of time to work on fixing up my characters soon.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on April 01, 2019, 01:24:50 am
Speaking of my Pokemon, is there any extra code I need to add to my work in progress ones due to the items?
Literally too much to add, as the code requires extensive changes to the character, though most of it is simply copy-paste.
For your remaining characters (Sharpedo, etc), you need to add the following information:
1. The formula for Special Defence is changed to one that uses Assault Vest in addition to other calculations, such as Sandstorm and Rock-types. If your code looked like this beforehand, where # is the Pokemon's original stat:
Code:
trigger1 = fvar(7):=floor((###)*fvar(37)) ; Special Defense
Then, if your Pokemon has a status move within their movelist, you need to add the following code to the starting statedef of the Pokemon's status move.
Code:
[State SelfState];Assault Vest Restriction type = SelfState triggerall = var(21) = 16;Assault Vest trigger1 = time <= 1 value = 2203
2. The damage formula has been changed to accommodate Life Orb, but before this, we need to add in the following code to the starting statedef of the Pokemon's attack moves (500, 510, etc).
Code:
[State LifeAdd];Life Orb Life Loss type = LifeAdd triggerall = time = 2 triggerall = var(21) = 17;Life Orb triggerall = var(30) <= 0;If attack would hit trigger1 = ((var(40) <= 0 && name = "Clefable") || (name != "Clefable")) value = -ceil(lifemax/10) ignorehitpause = 1 absolute = 1 kill = 0
[State VarSet];Life Orb Display Damage Numbers type = VarSet triggerall = time = 2 triggerall = var(21) = 17;Life Orb triggerall = var(30) <= 0;If attack would hit trigger1 = ((var(40) <= 0 && name = "Clefable") || (name != "Clefable")) v = 6 value = 0+ceil(lifemax/10)
Next, you need to change the "move's power" part of the hitdef code so that it accommodates Life Orb. If your code looked like this beforehand:
Code:
fall.envshake.phase = floor(20*1.5)
change it to either of these two:
Code:
fall.envshake.phase = floor((20)*ifelse(root,var(21)=17,1.3,1)); Power affected by Life Orb
Code:
fall.envshake.phase = floor((20*1.5)*ifelse(root,var(21)=17,1.3,1)); Power affected by STAB and Life Orb
Remember to remove the "Root," part of the code if the main Pokemon is hitting the opponent instead of the helper.
3. Shell Bell code.
Copy and paste the following code above statedef -3:
[State VarSet];Reset number, but must be placed above anything else! type = VarSet trigger1 = var(0) >= 1 v = 0 value = 0
[State VarSet];Record number of damage sustained by enemy type = VarSet triggerall = teammode != simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(6) >= 1 v = 0 value = enemynear,var(6)/4
[State VarSet];Record number of damage sustained by enemy 1 type = VarSet triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),var(6) >= 1 v = 0 value = enemy(0),var(6)/4
[State VarSet];Record number of damage sustained by enemy 2 type = VarSet triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),var(6) >= 1 v = 0 value = enemy(1),var(6)/4
[State ParentVarSet];Report to user type = ParentVarSet triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell trigger1 = var(0) >= 1 v = 6 value = var(0) ignorehitpause = 1
[State Shell Bell Heal Sound];Record number of damage sustained by enemy type = PlaySnd triggerall = teammode != simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(6) >= 1 value = F0,4 ignorehitpause = 1
[State Shell Bell Heal Sound];Record number of damage sustained by enemy 1 type = PlaySnd triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),var(6) >= 1 value = F0,4 ignorehitpause = 1
[State Shell Bell Heal Sound];Record number of damage sustained by enemy 2 type = PlaySnd triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = root,stateno = 501 || root,stateno = 511 || root,stateno = 522 triggerall = root,var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),var(6) >= 1 value = F0,4 ignorehitpause = 1
Copy and paste the following code within statedef -3, preferable at the bottom of the file:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Code:
;======================= ;Shell Bell States (insert in Statedef -3)
[State Helper] type = Helper trigger1 = numhelper(1900) = 0 stateno = 1900 id = 1900 name = "Shell Bell Heal Numbers" helpertype = Normal pos = 0,0 postype = back facing = ifelse(facing = 1,1,-1) ownpal = 1 ignorehitpause = 1
[State -3, Shell Bell Heal Effect] type = PalFX triggerall = teammode != simul triggerall = stateno = 501 || stateno = 511 || stateno = 522 triggerall = var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(6) add = 50,240,0 mul = 224,150,120 sinadd = 55,110,85,20 color = 256 time = 16
[State -3, Shell Bell Heal Effect] type = PalFX triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = stateno = 501 || stateno = 511 || stateno = 522 triggerall = var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),var(6) add = 50,240,0 mul = 224,150,120 sinadd = 55,110,85,20 color = 256 time = 16
[State -3, Shell Bell Heal Effect] type = PalFX triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = stateno = 501 || stateno = 511 || stateno = 522 triggerall = var(21) = 19;Shell Bell triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),var(6) add = 50,240,0 mul = 224,150,120 sinadd = 55,110,85,20 color = 256 time = 16
;=======================
Finally, the below two parts of code needs to be adjusted so it works with the current Pokemon's moves. Currently, Shell Bell recovers your HP if you're in either of the states specified, regardless of where the attack hits. For example, if the Pokemon has an attack within state 500, 511, and 528, these need to be changed where each of the below occur. In this example:
These are the main things that need to be applied at the moment. Critical Hits and the effects of the weather and the Big Root item are optional if the character can be healed by their own moves, if the character can change the weather, and/or if the character has a move with a higher critical ratio.

Nice, beta 5 is finally out. The new Characters are cool and the item system is good as well. Now don't take char this seriously. I just got bored so I posting this just for fun. I remade Raichu a little and now his Quick attack is now stronger. But, it doesn't go as far, its also slower. I don't want this Raichu in the full Game.

I like it, and i like that you change the thunderwave to iron tail, but i suggest you change the effect of quick attack and give it to the iron tail (unless you got a better idea of course) and either keep the original quick attack or push it behind the iron tail and make it a different move

I haven't worked on anything of note at this point in time. Spriting animations for Pokemon that don't have a sprite sheet is difficult and time-consuming at best. I may not get any more Pokemon released that need a whole set of animations anytime soon.
Thus, I feel as though I should dedicate my time to character balancing instead. Here are the things I'm proposing:
1. Hitmontop's Triple Kick will be replaced with Aerial Ace, as he needs a move to deal with Ghost types. If he comes across one during an Arcade run, he's as good as dead. 2. Snorlax replaces Strength with Heavy Slam to make him slightly more viable to play. 3. Clefable requires a massive overhaul to make it more fairy-like. Its moves to replace as follows:
Mega Punch > Moonblast Body Slam > Calm Mind Comet Punch > Stored Power Metronome (Uses from own moveset, otherwise from all the moves in the game. Can choose between one offensive and one defensive move from each type.)
I'm not so sure about Mewtwo; Though Psycho Cut and even Psychic can be replaced, I'm not sure what to replace them with without him being overpowered.

Post by: poiuygfd on June 03, 2019, 12:07:32 pm
I think that going back and revamping some of the older pokemon is a great idea, and as for Mewtwo, maybe disable would work? I don't know if that would make him too good or not but theres not really many options that wouldn't make it too strong.

Hey so I'm back and I ended up making Raichu again. As I said before, Just for fun. The char isn't the best since I SUCK at making Chars. But maybe someone is will finish this up, Btw I'm probably not gonna make this char again or keep working on it. Heres the link: https://mega.nz/#!jipTTaAS!4vXmqMjIrYSbExxdtnWrvkbXUWYHOlLw9nEvza43A4o

Hello, I know its been a while, but I'm going to start working on some more Pokemon again now that its finally summer. I'll also fix up my ongoing projects, however I have also started work on two of my favourite Ghost type Pokemon: Sableye and Rotom. One of the moves I want to give Sableye is Knock Off, but that sounds like it could be a complex move. My question is, is it possible to check if the opponent has an item, and if so, can I remove it with Knock Off?
Edit: There was also mention of additional code needed for the Big Root if the Pokemon has a move that heals them. As Eevee's Bouncy Bubble does this, what would be the code I need for Eevee?
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: poiuygfd on June 19, 2019, 10:59:22 pm
Thanks ;D
I have the new update for Eevee practically done, it should now be compatible with almost every item, and Quick Attack has been replaced with a new move, Last Resort. The only thing I'm waiting for is to learn how to add the Big Root code, though I may just dig through the code of other characters to try and find out for myself. Once that is done, I can release the beta 5 version of Eevee.
Sableye is also coming close to completion, as all I have left to do is find out how I can implement Knock Off. MissingNo also shouldn't take long to update, although I also intend to revamp Submission.

OK I think I managed to figure out the Big Root stuff on my own so hopefully Eevee should now function correctly with every item now. On top of that, as mentioned before, Eevee now has a new move in Last Resort.
Here is the new and improved Eevee: https://www.mediafire.com/file/tv5r7wv1mmloide/PartnerEevee.zip
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All

Argh, sorry about the delay of my answers! I'll get to the responses now:
The only thing I'm waiting for is to learn how to add the Big Root code, though I may just dig through the code of other characters to try and find out for myself. Once that is done, I can release the beta 5 version of Eevee.
On simple self-healing like Blissey's Soft-boiled, you would use the following code inside the attack state, paying attention to the "ifelse" part of the code:
Code:
[State LifeAdd] type = LifeAdd trigger1 = Time = 163 value = ceil((lifemax/2)*ifelse(var(21)=12,1.3,1))
[State VarSet];Display Heal Numbers type = VarSet trigger1 = Time = 163 v = 6 value =ceil((lifemax/2)*ifelse(var(21)=12,1.3,1)) ; Heal Boosted By Big Root
The "##" is the power of the move itself.
For drain-based moves, you'll need a different type of code. First you'll need to change the code of the damage for the attack itself so it looks like the below:
This code came from Bellossom's Giga Drain. Next, you'll need to add the following code into statedef -3, also from Bellossom:
Code:
[State LifeAdd];Giga Drain Heal type = LifeAdd triggerall = teammode != simul triggerall = stateno = ### triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(6) value = 0+(var(6):=ceil((enemynear,var(6)*0.5)*ifelse(var(21)=12,1.3,1))) ; Heal Boosted By Big Root kill = 0 persistent = 0 ignorehitpause = 1
[State LifeAdd];Giga Drain Heal type = LifeAdd triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = stateno = ### triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),var(6) value = 0+(var(6):=ceil((enemy(0),var(6)*0.5)*ifelse(var(21)=12,1.3,1))) ; Heal Boosted By Big Root kill = 0 persistent = 0 ignorehitpause = 1
[State LifeAdd];Giga Drain Heal type = LifeAdd triggerall = teammode = simul triggerall = stateno = ### triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),life >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(1),var(6) value = 0+(var(6):=ceil((enemy(1),var(6)*0.5)*ifelse(var(21)=12,1.3,1))) ; Heal Boosted By Big Root kill = 0 persistent = 0 ignorehitpause = 1
The "stateno = ###" refers to the state that you would heal the damage dealt to the opponent. This is important, as different Pokemon require the trigger to refer to all states where the Pokemon is actively draining the opponent.
Sableye is also coming close to completion, as all I have left to do is find out how I can implement Knock Off. MissingNo also shouldn't take long to update, although I also intend to revamp Submission.
The item needed for Knock Off is var(20) and var(21). The values are as follows:
Code:
var(20) = Item State: - 0 = Unused - 1 = Unused (Sticky Hold) - 2 = Unused (Klutz) - 3 = Used Consumable Item - 4 = Used Held Item - 5 = Used Held Item (Sticky Hold) - 6 = Unusable (Embargo) - 7 = Unusable (Magic Room) - 8 = Removed and cannot regain var(21) = Used Item Effect: - 0 = None - 1 = Full Restore - 2 = X Attack 2 - 3 = X Defence 2 - 4 = X Speed 2 - 5 = X Sp.Atk 2 - 6 = X Sp.Def 2 - 7 = X Accuracy 2 - 8 = X Evade 2 [DOESN'T EXIST IN ACTUAL GAME] - 9 = Dire Hit 2 - 10 = White Herb (Removes all lowered stats instantly) - 11 = Grip Claw ("Binding" move's active turns = 8, "Multi-strike" move's active hits becomes maximum) - 12 = Big Root (30% healing boost for all moves that heal the user) - 13 = Rock Collection (Weather turns active = 8 turns) - 14 = Terrain Extender (Terrain/Surge turns active = 8 turns) - 15 = Leftovers - 16 = Assault Vest (Special Defence +50%, prevents use of status moves) - 17 = Life Orb (Move's Power = +30%, adds recoil effect of 10% of Max HP) - 18 = Weakness Policy (If hit by weakness, ATK/S.ATK increased by 2 levels, but only once) - 19 = Shell Bell (Recover 1/4 of damage dealt as HP) - 20 = Safety Goggles (Immune to weather damage, the effects of the enemy's "spore"/"powder"/"sand" moves, and accuracy-reduction moves.)
To use with Knock Off, you would send the opponent to the "dropped item" state, then use the below code to check what their item state is, then apply the changes as needed:
Code:
[State VarSet] type = VarSet triggerall = Time = 0 trigger1 = var(20) >= 3 v = 20 value = 8
[State VarSet] type = VarSet triggerall = Time = 0 trigger1 = var(20) >= 3 v = 21 value = 0
For example with the move Fling, Delibird uses var(20) and var(21) to check whether an item is being held, and then removes that item.
OK I think I managed to figure out the Big Root stuff on my own so hopefully Eevee should now function correctly with every item now. On top of that, as mentioned before, Eevee now has a new move in Last Resort.
Here is the new and improved Eevee: https://www.mediafire.com/file/tv5r7wv1mmloide/PartnerEevee.zip
Only problem with Eevee is Last Resort itself:
1. The stars start to form into one, but they disappear before joining together. Then nothing happens for a second or so before a huge star appears out of nowhere and is shot out from the pokemon, with an awkward rotating pattern.
2. The attack itself has "pausetime = 0,8" for the enemy. This causes the opponent to land on the ground normally, even though they were sent flying by the star attack. We don't use "pausetime" in this game simply bacause it screws up the functionality of the "Fall" part of the attack's code, and can lead to certain problems that are solved by removing it, or at least setting all its values to 0.
Otherwise it's good enough to join the game itself.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: poiuygfd on June 28, 2019, 08:09:42 pm
OK I fixed the issues outlined with Eevee: Bouncy Bubble should now properly use the Big Root, Last Resort's animation has been adjusted and the pausetime has been changed, and something I noticed during testing is Bouncy Bubble was using the wrong animation, so that has also been fixed.
Anyway, here is the new link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/h7zpo24kpl1e33q/PartnerEevee.zip

Time for the long awaited check up How have updates and life been so far?
The new moves of Mewtwo, Hitmontop, and Snorlax are complete. The status "Attract" is complete, I just need to add the appropriate effects to highlight it better.
Expect this update to come by the end of tomorrow (00:00 AM UTC+0). Update is here, see below:
Update to Project Catch-em All Beta 5
Here's a quick list as to what is added:
*General System*
1. Infatuation has been implemented to the game. Because of this, Jigglypuff's relevant Ability has been updated to reflect this change. (Clefable's will come at a later update.)
Infatuation halves the victim's Special Attack in the same method as Burn, but is not a major status ailment. Thus, it can stack with Burn to have both physical and special attack mitigation. The status lasts for 5 turns.
*Pokemon*
1. Hitmontop's Triple Kick is replaced with Aerial Ace. 2. Snorlax's Strength is replaced with Heavy Slam. 3. Mewtwo's Psycho Cut is replaced with Shock Wave.
This requires an engine update, so use this link to update the relevant files in the system, which is the same as the last update file's location from updating Shedinja: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jcc9wjyi4nyaygb/Pokemon_Project_Catch_em_All-update.rar
On another note, it's taking a long time to see new updates for the game, huh? Because of this, I've decided to try and bring a new update to the game at least once every two weeks at the latest. This is just to get me to do more for this project, even if it's just adding more characters or stages, because I feel that it's unfair to keep you lot waiting for something new to happen for the game.

Nice, looking forwards to more updates! Also, just wondering, any more critisism on Partner Eevee? What should I work on next with that character? I'll also try to get some work done on Sableye soon, and if I really feel motivated enough maybe I'll fix up MissingNo. too

Partner Eevee is good to go as-is. Unless you feel the need to change a move or something, the character will be added to the game.

Quick question, how would I change the state that Knock Off is set to depending on whether the enemy's item variable (variable 21) is 0 or not? I've tried a couple things but can't get it to work.

Quick question, how would I change the state that Knock Off is set to depending on whether the enemy's item variable (variable 21) is 0 or not? I've tried a couple things but can't get it to work.
Referencing the code of a W.I.P character, you would use this in Statedef -2, replacing ## with your chosen variable:
Code:
[State VarSet];Knock Off Activator type = VarSet triggerall = enemynear,teammode != simul triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(20) <= 0 trigger2 = enemynear,var(20) = [1,5] trigger2 = enemynear,var(21) >= 11 v = ## value = 1
[State VarSet];Knock Off Deactivator type = VarSet triggerall = enemynear,teammode != simul triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemynear,var(20) = [1,5] trigger1 = enemynear,var(21) <= 10 trigger2 = enemynear,var(20) >= 8 v = ## value = 0
[State VarSet];Knock Off Deactivator type = VarSet triggerall = enemynear,teammode = simul triggerall = numenemy >= 1 trigger1 = enemy(0),var(21) <= 10 && enemy(0),var(20) = [1,5] trigger1 = enemy(1),var(21) <= 10 && enemy(1),var(20) = [1,5] trigger2 = enemy(0),var(20) >= 8 && enemy(1),var(20) >= 8 v = ## value = 0
To turn on, the code detects whether your enemy has either used a held item, or has not used an item yet. To turn off. the code detects whether the enemy has used a consumable item. In the case of Simul, BOTH opponents need to have used a consumable item for this to turn off, otherwise it's always on. Hope it helps!

Wow thank you that was a huge help, Knock Off is now functional! And also thanks for the quick reply too. I've still got to come up with and add a few more palettes for Sableye but after that I can release the first version, so I'll get to doing that soon.
EDIT: I've added the palettes, so here is the first playable build for Sableye. I'm sure there is room for improvement but let me know what you think. https://www.mediafire.com/file/6k7lhwcvvdqfv67/Sableye.zip

EDIT: I've added the palettes, so here is the first playable build for Sableye. I'm sure there is room for improvement but let me know what you think.
Feedback:
1. Shadow Sneak's red collision box is incredibly small. Floating characters may completely dodge the attack without actually doing anything if their collision box is small enough off the ground.
2a. Will-O-Wisp has an incredibly short range of attack. If the enemy is too far away, they won't be hit by it unless they move forward at any time within the battle. b. The flame can hit multiple opponents, but can only cause Burn to one opponent per attack. This can also include the already-burned opponent shielding others by getting in the way of its intended target. c. The flame can be hit by other projectiles. If that happens, a clone of Sableye will appear instead of the flame.
3a. Power Gem's projectiles have a huge collision box that cannot be stopped at all due to not having a blue collision box to trade hits with other projectiles. b. In addition, Sableye leaves the attack state before the third projectile hits the foe. This means that the last two projectiles won't benefit from the boosted damage from a critical hit.
4. The "whoosh" sound comes after the "hit" sound from Knock Off, hitting the opponent before the "whoosh" swipe begins.
EDIT: Update is here, see below:
Update to Project Catch-em All Beta 5 (2)
Here's a quick list as to what is added:
*General System*
1.Reduced the time it takes for the animation of the "splash screen" (disappearing cubes) to disappear upon entering a battle by 30%. This also means that intros to a battle can be make quicker, although this hasn't happened yet. The original animation is in the same file, should anyone wish to change it to the original.
*Pokemon*
1. Partner Eevee is added to the game.
This requires an engine update, so use this link to update the relevant files in the system: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jcc9wjyi4nyaygb/Pokemon_Project_Catch_em_All-update.rar

Nice, a new update. I appreciate the speed increase, and its nice to see another of my creations officially in the game. By the way, I was looking in the updates text document, and it says that a boss Pokemon was added to the game, but it doesn't appear that anything new actually was added, so is this a mistake?

Ha! I just realised this right after uploading the update, and thought I could get away with it by omitting that in the post.
Yes, there was going to be a new boss to be completed in time for today, but I was distracted by family things and I had three moves still needed to be completed. Hopefully I can get it done on the next batch.
Also here is the next version of Sableye, hopefully fixing the issues pointed out before
Alright, it's good enough for the game, barring the usual additions of extra sounds and its abilities.
I also found out that the update file is starting to get too big. Maybe if the file size becomes 70MB or more, I'll merge the update with the full game so you don't have to download a huge update file every time.

Thats fair, sometimes there is things that can't be helped. By the way, I was making plans to start work on a Meloetta boss myself, but before I do that I better be sure the boss you are creating isn't Meloetta otherwise there would be no point.

Well thats a shame, as I've already gotten some work on it done in terms of attempting to create form changing with Relic Song, but at least I'm not that far in yet. Instead, I may try to work on the Rotom character I mentioned a while back, or maybe try my hands at a different boss like Victini instead.

Sorry about earlier. It's just that sometimes I get bored with the characters on my list of things to create, and I deviate from that to work on something new/fresh.
As something to make amends, here is a version of Rotom I made way back when Alexei was still working on the game. It uses Volt Switch to change between random forms (Appliances). Though it can be played, the creation is completely incompatible with this version of the game; the point of this is to learn from its code as to how it does the form change, and how "wild" you can be with designing a character:

Post by: poiuygfd on September 01, 2019, 12:55:32 pm
Don't worry about it, I'm not too worried about that. I've already started work on a new character that is most likely going to be terrible but has a fun gimmick that I'm working on, though thanks for that Rotom character as I was wondering how i could incorporate the various appliance forms into its kit. I'll likely try to work on Rotom as well as the character I'm currently working on as it could take a while to fully complete.

Squirtle can be updated once more. Chuchoryu hasn't replied to an old quote as to what to do with Squirtle because of the below reason. The quote is as follows:
@chuchoryu: I didn't bother update Squirtle because he's a sprite-swap of Blastoise, and so he isn't added to this game. Because making multiples of the same Pokemon isn't recommended, you need to choose either of these three options:
1. Make him different to Blastoise, and give him new moves. I'll happily design them to your liking if you want. 2. Tell me to keep him as-is. I'll copy his code from Blastoise, so he's basically blastoise except with Squirtle sprites. You can still select both of them on the Character Select screen. 3. Make a new Pokemon for this game to replace him.
Because of this, I will assume that Chuchoryu has lost interest in the project, so you may also suggest an entirely different moveset if you wish to do so.

If it does get updated, a change in attack names would do, Skull Bash - Tackle Bubble Beam - Bubble Hydro Pump - Water Gun Protect - Withdraw OR Smash Ultimate Moveset or Move Like
MAybe, if time is AvAiLaBleE..... maybe slap in a Bulbasaur/Ivysaur and charmander (But obviously with it own character) also because they are missing Crocanaw and Meganium
i wish i was able to code this (hopefully..... soon)

For immunization to hail and/or to sandstorm, go to data/common1.cns and add pkm on good weather category . For floaty effect, go to data/common1.cns and add pkm on all terrain's part

Hi ya'll!
Im glad to see people are keeping this project going! Especially @ReyCed! THANK YOU for all the contributions!
I have to ask though, How many characters are there totally made for this game? Just a number is fine.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: ReyCed on January 17, 2023, 11:53:39 am
On my game there're 121 characters. I upgraded Characters's menu selection to put on it 144 chars.

Maybe you should merge new ones into main build and continue from that point if there's no issues with this... It's fun project and nice to see it still alive (http://www.infinitymugenteam.com/Forum_345/Smileys/classic/Iceman.gif)

I don't see any issue with this, I NEVER thought the community would come together and make their own characters. The entire thing is shocking to me LOL.

I need some help to make avalanche, need "double damages if user receive attack before"
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: 087-B on February 04, 2023, 11:17:45 pm
He just did. Avalanche's power is doubled if the Pokémon using it moves after the target.
Welp, the best way to go here, I think, is to set an extra variable for that: -Set var(x)=1 when you just pick Avalanche. -Set var(x)=2 when you get hurt while var(x)=1. -Set var(x)=0 after the move is done and, just for safety, when you pick any other move. But yeah, that's just a speculation, because I'm not really sure how this game works... xD
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: PlasmoidThunder on February 22, 2023, 03:31:59 pm
Forgot to mention the move has lower priority, so the user is likely to attack after the opponent does.
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: ReyCed on February 27, 2023, 11:42:12 am
Thanks for your advice, I'll see how to insert that.

I soon reached my goal of adding as many different pokemon as possible. Now I will need suggestions to fully complete the choice of characters. Actually 12 row are completed , one is available too: the 13th row. For the 12th it's so uggly to put pokemon on this but it's possible too (need yours comments about this too). -Pokemon missing type (in order of need): dragon, electric, fighting, flying then ground, ice and steel. => One visible place is remaining (Emolga on wip) => + 12 hidden places is remaining, possible to add 6 pokemon "mega" (minimum) and one pokemon which have flying press? -Boss are missing to create. => 1 on 14th row (Heatran on wip) => + 12 hidden places is remaining, possible to add 6 additional boss (maximum)
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: ReyCed on March 12, 2023, 05:26:29 pm
Actually I've sprites (not palette) for: -Mega Swampert (walking animation missing + extra bonus avalanche missing) -Mega Altaria (attack animation missing) -Mega Slowbro (full) <= not type remaining -Mega Gingar (full) <= not type remaining -Palkia (full) -Zorua Hisui (full) -Growlithe Hisui (full) <= not type remaining -Aggron (walking animation missing) -Grolem Alolan (full) <= not type remaining -Dragonite (walking/flying animation missing) -Hawlucha (just standing animation available, maybe some attack...) -Pikachu Libre (need to transform Pikachu's sprites) -Talonflame (full) -Cyclizard (attack animation missing) -Cryodo (walking animation missing) -Mammoswine (walking animation missing) -Sandslash Alolan (for walking animation, I can make it with first sandslash's sprites) -Bastiodon (need to make it immunisate to sound's attack, so difficult) -Absol (full) <= not type remaining -Wyvern (walking animation missing) -Mega Charizard X and Y : I'm in search of more sprites.
----------
It would be great, if anyone would like to create missing palettes on characters that I uploaded. I'm not very good to making them.

I need some help to make avalanche, need "double damages if user receive attack before", I took "Rock Tomb" code to make the attack but I couldn't embed the payback code for extra bonus...

Maybe an Alolan Ninetales (for Ice and Fairy) on wip...
20 (21 if I delete "random select") chars are missing, 12 of them are hidden.
After that, I'll add the missing sounds and add some stages for boss + places reminiscents of the different games.

Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on June 06, 2023, 02:59:10 pm
(In light of recent activity starting from 31st October 2022, I have decided to post an update of some sorts.)
Okay, this is a lot to take in. Lets start with the users here:
I'm very sorry for not being active. I can't actually work on Project Catch-em all at this point in time. I haven't given up on the project, but due to family matters and my job, I haven't been able to do anything with the project yet. The things I wanted to do in the next update at the very least are as follows:
1. The size of the game in general is increased from 640x480 to 1024x768, to accomodate a need to add more things to the game screens in general.
2. The roster size gets increased to accomodate 144 monsters (though this will have to be changed due to the frequency of other users releasing characters).
3. The item system being easier to access, as it's a bit difficult to use in the heat of battle.
To wait Another characters (https://1drv.ms/u/s!AiGshk6Na8nLinve_HzHc72etPW0?e=jgmsQJ)
There are a bunch of characters you've made, but I must interject as there are some things I need to clarify with all your work.
The quality of your work in general. While I understand that there is a need among some users (both past and present) to have as many characters as possible in the game itself on a weekly/monthly basis, I feel that the quality of them vary too wildly to even consider ANY of your creations, let alone a quarter of them. I have tested all of them (Except Darmanitan as the link is broken), and have found a number of problems that otherwise wouldn't be suitable for the game itself, spoiler-ed to make it easier to read the rest of this post (though I understand if you can't fix the problems because you're not fluent in coding/spriting/frankenspriting):
To give a brief summary to the issues present with all of your work:
1. Most, if not all of your pokemon, are direct spriteswaps of existing creations. Don't do this just to make a character, unless you know that you can turn a previous creation into something entirely new.
2. The sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game, for most of your pokemon. Remember, this full game requires you to either grab Joshr's sprites and work with them (Sprite sheet or just a single sprite, it can be whatever it is as long as it's made by Joshr), or find an equivalent spriter that can keep the quality of the character to Joshr's standards. As it stands, the sprites was ripped from the animations from Generation 5's Black and White, which we cannot accept at all.
3. Meanwhile, the sprites that DO come from Joshr's sprite sheets are either misaligned, are cropped improperly, or have artifacts such as the leftover pixels of background colours on them, making them look bad in everything they do. This is heartbreaking, especially because most of Joshr's sprite sheets DO have a good animation within the sheets, so not including these beautiful animations is another sign of laziness and not caring about the original work.
4. Most, if not all of your pokemon's stats and typing are wrong. I don't know what source you looked at to get such inaccurate values, but you need to use the offical websites listed in the "Develper Reference.txt" file, or at least find a reputable website like PokemonDB for less in-depth things.
5. When loading the pokemon, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" at minimum, and "FVar index out of range" at the worst case scenario. In addition, most of the pokemon have names that are misaligned on the P2 side.
6. The "Non-Type" is there to make sure that moves that deal a fixed amount of damage (Counter/Mirror Coat/Bide/Night Shade, etc) deal accurate damage, and therefore should be set to 1.0. As it stands, almost ALL of your pokemon take 50% more damage from those moves, which shouldn't be the case at all.
7. All their attacking moves have the STAB (Same-Type-Attack-Boost) bonus enabled, regardless of what types should get the bonus in relation to the pokemon itself.
8. Their animations need work overall, and their blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. You need to keep all of its collisions consistent with every action it can do, so that it doesn't take any unnecessary damage because of its large collisions.
9. Their palettes don't work because you didn't add the sprites and link them to the palettes properly, and so most of the pokemon's palettes will always be messed up.
I can't post the rest of what I was going to say because I keep running into an error...
Title: Re: Project Catch 'Em All
Post by: Txpot on June 06, 2023, 05:14:44 pm
My Post, Part two:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*Applin*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Jigglypuff. As such, it uses Jigglypuff's sound effects and name plate, which is totally wrong. 1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. 2. Its typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 3. Its animations need work overall. The standing animation needs to be faster. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". In addition, the names on half of them are misaligned on the P2 side. 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Rollout is not a continuous attack, and the pokemon itself is misaligned as it's rolling. I don't know whether this is intentional or not, but the move now acts like Fury Cutter in that the more you attack with it, the more damage it deals, despite it still resetting its attack values when it misses or gets to its final stage of attack. 7. Applin cannot learn Bounce in any of the videogames. We do not allow any illegal moves to be added in the pokemon we create for this game. 8. Grassy Glide has a spelling error on it, being called "Grassy Glade".
*Armored Mewtwo*
Despite this being what should be a spriteswap of Mewtwo, there are a number of problems with this creation, and it's not just the sprites.
1. Its portrait needs shading to highlight the other colours Mewtwo has, assuming you modified a Generation 5 sprite which you should've. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a new one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please modify the official one made for Mewtwo. 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. Its intro is bad; Not only can I still hear the trainer throw the pokeball despite it being non-existent, the way that Mewtwo just appears out of nowhere is bad. Have him appear out of a machine, at the very least, but otherwise you need to rework the animation. 3. Its moving animation is very bad; it just floats around with some sort of energy thing stuck to it. At least have it move its legs as it flies forward, like what regular Mewtwo can do. 4. Aura Sphere is misaligned.
*Bagon*
0. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 1. Its animations need work overall. For example, your standing animation is not only slow, but also moves in frames of 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, making it jerky. You should set it to 1-2-3-4-3-2-1-5-6-7-6-5 to make it less wooden. 2. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. It's also not a Rock-type and therefore shouldn't gain any Special Defence benefits from Sandstorm. 4. The "Non-Type" should be set to 1.0, NOT 1.5. 5. All its attacking moves have the STAB (Same-Type-Attack-Boost) bonus enabled. Because it's a pure Dragon-type, only Dragon Breath should get the bonus, so you should remove it from the other two moves. 6. None of its moves have any sounds played for the pokemon at all. Headbutt is the only exception, but instead, it repeatedly plays a screaming sound (?) as Bagon walks towards the opponent. Meanwhile, it looks like you're using Kung Fu Man's sounds as a base when you shouldn't be. 7. Headbutt produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 8. Dragon Breath produces what seems to be icicles (?) or some weird sprites as an effect. 9. Endure lasts forever. It's supposed to last only one turn (Unless you copied my Pachirisu for it, then it should last three turns). 10. When dying, its sound is not of Bagon, but of some other pokemon entirely.
*Bayleef*
(I like to think that Bayleef encapsulates everything that's wrong with your creations as a whole. For anyone reading this, Bayleef is a good example as to what NOT to do when making your pokemon.)
0. It's a spriteswap of Venusaur, complete with an untouched sound file and stats and typing of Venusaur, which is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Its move table on the selection screen is misaligned, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Bayleef. 2. Bayleef cannot learn Head Smash in any of the videogames. We do not allow any illegal moves to be added in the pokemon we create for this game. 3. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 4. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 5. Its animations and sprites need work overall. Most of them are cropped improperly, causing the sprites to look misaligned, while the animations are very jarring to watch. 6. Giga Drain doesn't restore life because you took the code from Shedinja, which doesn't drain life as Shedinja had only 1 HP and (presumably) it was redundant to have it restore life. 7. Body Slam was taken from Lapras, which looks horrible on Bayleef.
*Celebi*
1. Its move table and portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Celebi. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong. Also, though it's double-weak to Bug, the modifier should be 2.25, not 2.0. 3. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 4. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size, and are misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 5. Its animations and sprites need work overall. Most of them are placed high up above the ground, causing the sprites to look misaligned, while the animations are very jarring to watch. You can easily do better, even if Joshr's sprites are lacking in the animation department for this pokemon. 6. The character itself is too high above the ground, despite there being collisions on the floor. This gives the impression that the pokemon can miss most attacks by simply standing around. 7. Its intro is really bad; Not only can I still hear the trainer throw the pokeball despite it being non-existent, the way the pokemon comes out of the portal is horrible to look at. You need to rework the entire animation. 8. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 9. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it doesn't lower Special Attack after use. 10. Future Sight doesn't work at all because you're missing an important piece of code that determines when the effect activates.
*Chandelure*
0. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 1. Its move table on the selection screen is misaligned. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 4. Its sound file seems to be taken from a Touhou character that specializes in fire attacks, but neither of them actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 5. The character itself is too high above the ground, despite there being collisions on the floor. This gives the impression that the pokemon can miss most attacks by simply standing around. 6. It's Flash Fire ability doesn't prevent Chandelure from taking damage from Fire moves, when it should.
*Combusken*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Charizard. As such, it uses Charizard's sound effects which is totally wrong. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, going at slower speeds than it should. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking.
*Corsola*
1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a new one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please modify the official one made for Corsola. 2. Its typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, it shouldn't be immune to Psychic, and it should be immune to Flying Press. 3. Its sprites and animations need work overall. Not only is it misaligned, but the animation is off-putting because Corsola is repeating most of its animations in a way that it's jarring to the eyes. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Night Shade deals exactly 100 HP damage at all times. You simulate this by setting var(8) to 2 and the attack's type to the Non-type, in which you didn't. 7. Hex doesn't gain a power bonus because important code that handles the effect is missing.
*Cottonee*
0. It's a spriteswap of Ribombee, complete with an untouched sound file and some of the typing of Ribombee, which is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and its typing is wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game; These aren't Joshr's sprites. They're also misaligned and have horrible animations. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. The plants from Leech Seed are misaligned. 7. Fairy Wind uses a horrible effect to convey wind because you modified the attack from Frost Breath.
*Croconaw*
0. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Croconaw. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 4. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 5. Its shiny palette uses the wrong colours. 6. Ice Fang produces a debug flood of "Illegal Pos Bindtime for Explod". Its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions. 7. Bite is completely ripped from Meowth's Night Slash, which doesn't make sense as a move that is essentially a regular bite attack.
*Deino*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Kingdra. As such, it uses Kingdra's sound effects which is totally wrong. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and Deino should be weak to Fighting and Flying Press. 3. Its animations need work overall. The standing animation needs to be faster. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Dragon Rush is a Physical attack, NOT a Special attack. It's also supposed to have 100 power and 75 accuracy, NOT 112.5 power and 60 accuracy. 7. Crunch is completely ripped from Meowth's Night Slash, which doesn't make sense as a move that is essentially a regular bite attack. It's also supposed to have 80 power and 100 accuracy, NOT 120 power and 80 accuracy. 8. Dragon Rage is supposed to have 120 power and 100 accuracy, NOT 180 power and 80 accuracy. 9. Even if you intend to keep its ability on, Hustle is implemented wrong: Hustle raises YOUR BASE ATTACK, NOT the move's power.
On another note, why did you make this when you've already made Hydreigon?
*Drowzee*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of my Darkrai, complete with an untouched sound file, but with the typing of a pure Water type. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Drowzee. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 3. All of its stats, including its HP and typing, are wrong; Drowzee is NOT a Water type. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size, and are misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Psycho Cut is misaligned. 7. Hypnosis uses a horrible effect and/or is horribly animated because you took the Sing code from Lapras/Jigglypuff. Also, its accuracy is 60, NOT 80. 8. Dream Eater restores health equal to the move's power, NOT half the damage dealt. This is wrong and needs to be fixed. 9. For some reason, Barrier works like Light Screen does in this game, which is wrong; Barrier increases Defence by 2 levels, NOT produce a shield wall.
*Durant*
0. Its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 1. Its move table on the selection screen is misaligned. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong. Also, though it's double-weak to Fire, the modifier should be 2.25, not 4.0. 4. Its sound file seems to be taken from a random Touhou character, but neither of them actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 5. Dig causes the user to become completely invisible due to missing sprites within the actual attack. Also, it produces an electric effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 6. Due to an error with the code that deals with typing, other pokemon cannot damage Durant if they use a damaging move of either Poison, Ground, Flying, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Ghost, Dragon, Dark, Steel, or Fairy types, or the moves Freeze Dry and Flying Press.
*Flygon*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Sudowoodo, with its typing and Special Defence boost while Sandstorm exists, which is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Flygon. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong. 4. Its sound file came from a Streets of Rage character, but neither of them actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 5. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. You need to make more sprites. 6. Rock Slide causes a debug flood of "Changed to invalid State 502" after the move ends. 7. Flygon shouldn't have "Sturdy" as an ability.
*Forretress*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Magnezone. 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Forretress. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 4. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as it looks like you tried to combine a standing animation with an attack animation. 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size, and are misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Revenge and Payback don't work because the variable is missing some code that tracks the opponent's actions and tracks whether you took damage or not.
On another note, what makes you think that Forretress is a tank with the moveset you gave it? Spam Toxic Spikes/Revenge and hope for the best?
*Froslass*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Mismagius with a smidgen of Glaceon and Manaphy, which is wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Why is its name in block capitals? 2. Its portrait on the selection screen has lots of places where artifacts and the background colour wasn't removed correctly. It's a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 3. BOTH versions of Froslass have generally the same problem with its Mystery Dungeon Portrait being wrong; The one with Ice Shard uses the custom one from Chandelure, while the one with Blizzard has its own custom one made, for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Froslass for both versions. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as it looks like you tried to combine a standing animation with an attack animation. 6. Its blue collisions fail to cover up the pokemon because Froslass is misaligned. It also fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 7. All of its stats, including its HP and typing, are wrong; Froslass isn't weak to Water and Ground, among other things. 8. Its sound file is 19 mb! That's because you took the sound file of a random character, increasing the size to ridiculous amounts. Also, NONE of the sounds cannot actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 9. Blizzard has no effects being used throughout the move. The only way you can see the projectiles is if you turn on Debug Mode's Collision Viewer. In addition, it randomly switches between a torrent of projectiles and a full-screen attack even without hail, because this move was ripped from Glaceon. 10. Protect uses a very small shield effect that doesn't cover the pokemon at all. In addition, it doesn't work because either the animation the helper uses is non-existent, or the animation is too small to cover the pokemon properly, making the move totally pointless to use.
As for making two versions of Froslass, I genuinely don't know why you did this or what your motivation for this was, as neither contribute to any meaningful gameplay that required two versions; While the one with Blizzard is what I would expect for a standard character, the one with Ice Shard is both weaker and more broken than the former. As a result, NOBODY would select this because it's inferior to Blizzard-lass.
*Gallade*
1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Gallade. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; Gallade takes normal damage to Flying Press. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Wide Guard's maximum duration can only be used once because the code that checks whether the move has been used again in a row is non-existent. Once you use this move, you're stuck with a shorter duration for the rest of the fight, making it useless. 7. Its sound file is from Juggernaut! In addition, neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself.
*Galvantula*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Pachirisu. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 4. Its animations need work. The walking animation in particular needs extra movement within its legs. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Leech Life is a Physical attack, NOT a Special attack. 7. Electroweb's speed reduction is supposed to be always on, NOT with a 30% chance to activate.
*Gastly*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Mismagius. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. All of its stats, including its HP and typing, are wrong. Unless you intend to keep its ability on, it shouldn't be immune to Ground-type attacks as it's not part-Flying-Type. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits have awkward animations. Though this is Joshr's sprites, you could've removed the gas from the pokemon, and used code to create your own gas that shrouds it. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Smog has 30 power and 70 accuracy, and a 40% chance to poison, NOT 90 power and 100 accuracy, and a 30% chance to poison. 7. Lick has 30 power, NOT 75, and it produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't.
*Geodude*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Jolteon, with some of its typing and the ability "Quick Feet" and "Volt Absorb" which it shouldn't have, and is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a new one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please modify the official one made for Geodude. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Thunder Punch produces a debug flood of "Illegal Pos Bindtime for Explod". Its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions, and it produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 7. Rock Polish is Jolteon's Agility in disguise. Its effects also lasts forever, since the code that handles removing the effect is missing.
*Grotle*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Venusaur. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, going at slower speeds than it should. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Tackle produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 7. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it doesn't lower Special Attack after use.
*Grovyle*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Bellossom. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, going at slower speeds than it should. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it doesn't lower Special Attack after use.
*Houndour*
1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Houndour. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations; they are very jarring to watch as Houndour moves and attacks. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 7. Fire Fang produces a debug flood of "Illegal Pos Bindtime for Explod". Its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions. 8. Bite is completely ripped from Meowth's Night Slash, which doesn't make sense as a move that is essentially a regular bite attack.
*Ho-oh*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Lugia, with its typing and the ability "Multiscale" which it shouldn't have, and is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. Its big portrait on the selection screen is too big, and has lots of places where artifacts and the background colour wasn't removed correctly; I can see lots of the colour magneta as a result. 3. Its display name comes off the screen on P2's side because M.U.G.E.N cannot recognise Hyphens. Find an alternative to replicate Ho-oh's name. 4. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong. Ho-oh is NOT double-weak to Dark. 5. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Ho-oh. 6. Its sound file is 30 mb! That's because you put a music track in the character, increasing the size to ridiculous amounts. Also, the cries of Ho-oh came from the anime, which we don't use at all; please use the official one made for Ho-oh. Finally, most of the sounds cannot actually play because many of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 7. Its animations and sprites need work overall, especially its intro if you downloaded the "no trainer" file. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. You need to make more sprites. 8. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking.
*Hydreigon*
0. It's a spriteswap of my Charizard, complete with an untouched sound file and my initials in the "Hydreigon_States.cns" file ("Charizard by Txpot"). 1. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 2. Its big portrait on the selection screen is too big, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 4. Unless you intend to keep its ability on, it shouldn't be immune to Ground-type attacks as it's not part-Flying-Type. 5. The "Non-Type" should be set to 1.0, NOT 1.5. 6. All its attacking moves have the STAB (Same-Type-Attack-Boost) bonus enabled. Because it's a dual Dragon/Dark-type, only Dragon Rush and Dark Pulse should get the bonus, so you should remove it from the other two moves. 7. Dragon Rush has 75 power. It should be 100.
*Klingklang*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Magnezone. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 3. Though its sprites are incredibly basic, its animations need work. None of them convey the fact that this is an eternally-running set of cogs that will never die down unless it faints. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions change to smaller collisions when Shock Wave is used. 6. Because you modified Charge Beam and didn't adjust the power to compensate, Zap Cannon deals an obscene amount of damage; Each hit is a whopping 120 base power attack that is boosted by STAB (though it shouldn't be boosted) and deals at least five hits worth of damage, enough to destroy anything that isn't immune to Electric attacks.
Klingklang is broken: Slap on the X-Accuracy item, select Zap Cannon, and watch this thing break the game with an 83% chance of killing anything with one attack.
*Luvdisc*
1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Luvdisc. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 7. Brine's extra damage gimmick doesn't work because the variables needed to check the enemy's HP are missing. 8. Draining Kiss doesn't restore life because the associated code that handles the effect is missing as well. 9. Icy Wind doesn't lower speed by 1 Level because you modified the attack from Frost Breath, which doesn't have this effect at all.
*Magmar*
0. It's a spriteswap of my Azumarill, complete with an untouched sound file and my initials in the "Magmar_States.cns" file ("Azumarill by Txpot"). 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. Its big portrait on the selection screen is too big, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Magmar. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. 4. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 5. All of its stats, including its HP, are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; Magmar isn't immune to Dragon, and isn't weak to Poison/Steel/Freeze Dry, among other things. 6. Its sound file seems like it came from a Simpsons character by Warner, but most of them don't actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 7. Fire Blast produces a debug flood of "changed to invalid action 503." The projectile is also misaligned. 8. Fire Punch produces a debug flood of "player has no root." Its hitsound is that of the classic Simpsons Burp.
*Mega Altaria*
1. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 2. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; It's not weak to Ground, the NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions fluctuate while its moving and attacking. 6. Roost is affected by the weather, when it shouldn't be. 7. Its intro is bad; There's no Mega Evolution transformation, it just appears from the pokeball, as if it had already mega-evolved during the fight.
*Meloetta*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of my Darkrai, complete with its Dark typing and my initials in the "Meloetta_States.cns" file ("Darkrai by Txpot"). 1. Its portrait on the selection screen is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. 3. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Meloetta is also NOT a Dark-type. 4. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 5. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 6. Sing has 55 Accuracy, NOT 80.
*Mimikyu*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Azumarill. 1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 3. Its animations need work overall. The standing animation needs to be faster. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Leech Life is a Physical attack, NOT a Special attack. It's also supposed to have 80 power. 7. Some sprites aren't cropped properly, such as when Mimikyu takes damage, and so their background is still visible.
*Monferno*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Wobbuffet. 1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Mudkip. 2. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as its walking animations are missing a frame or two, among other things. 3. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. You need to keep all of its collisions consistent with every action it can do, so that it doesn't take any unnecessary damage because of its large collisions. 4. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0, and there's no such thing as a type called "Sheer Cold", so you should remove that part of the code. 5. Overheat lowers the user's Special Attack, NOT inflicts burn. It also has 90 accuracy, NOT 85. 6. Fire Punch is 75 power, NOT 90. Its attack produces a debug flood of "Illegal Pos Bindtime for Explod". Its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions, and it produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 7. Focus Punch is 150 power, NOT 180.
*Mudkip*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Blastoise. 1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Mudkip. 2. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as it appears out of nowhere when it comes out of a pokeball, and its walking animations are missing a frame or two. 3. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 4. All of its stats, including its HP, are wrong. The values for its typing is also wrong; it's 1.5x for a single weakness, NOT 2.0. 5. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself.
On a different note, Mudkip is the first pokemon you've released, and it's the best creation you've ever made, even with its problems. So from Bayleef onwards, what happened to the quality control, and where did this good-quality creativity go?
*Poliwrath*
1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Poliwrath. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits have horrible animations; just look at Hypnosis. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Its sound file seems like it came from a Simpsons character by Warner, but most of them can't actually play because most of the sound effects aren't referenced within the code itself. 7. Ice Punch produces a debug flood of "Illegal Pos Bindtime for Explod". Its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions, and it produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't. 8. Water Gun is actually Hydro Pump in disguise.
*Rayquaza*
1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Rayquaza. 2. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as it appears out of nowhere when it comes out of a pokeball, and everything it does looks bad due to lack of frames. 4. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. You need to keep all of its collisions consistent with every action it can do, so that it doesn't take any unnecessary damage because of its large collisions. 5. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; Rayquaza is NOT resistant to Psychic. 6. Except for its intro sound, neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 7. Its sound file is a random assortment of cries and sound effects, from Rayquaza from Smash Bros Brawl, to Bowser, to Mismagius, to even sounds from Marvel VS Capcom 2. 8. Hyper Beam is unaffected by critical hits, and for some reason, both Hyper Beam and Dragon Pulse can lower Special Defence. It's because both moves are spriteswaps of Flash Cannon. 9. Sometimes, Air Slash causes Rayquaza to float upwards before attacking. This happens randomly.
*Rhyperior*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Rhyhorn, with Sandslash's sound file. 1. Its big portrait on the selection screen is too big, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 4. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 5. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as it looks like you tried to make a standing animation an attack animation, which is just wrong. 6. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 7. Bulldoze automatically sets the foe's speed to -6 regardless of what they had beforehand, when it shouldn't. It also sends the foe floating upwards until the move ends.
*Sandile*
0. It's a spriteswap of Sandslash, complete with an untouched sound file and .air file. 1. Its animations need work overall. For example, your standing animation moves too slowly, like it's having a hard time surviving due to rigor mortis, while its walking animations are misaligned. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. The "Non-Type" should be set to 1.0, NOT 1.5. 4. Bite is completely ripped from Meowth's Night Slash, but has the wrong sound effects playing throughout the move. It also doesn't make sense as a move that is essentially a regular bite attack. 5. Torment doesn't work because you're missing the required helper to get it to work properly. 6. Dig causes the user to become completely invisible due to missing sprites within the actual attack.
*Scraggy*
0. It's a spriteswap of Hitmonlee with a smidgen of Croagunk, complete with an untouched sound file. 1. Its animations need work overall. For example, your standing animation moves too slowly. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its typing is also wrong. Scraggy should be immune to Psychic, should resist Rock and Ghost and double-resist Dark, and should be weak to Fighting and Flying and double-weak to Fairy and Flying Press. The "Non-Type" is wrong as well. 4. Brick Break doesn't target the enemy correctly because it doesn't have enough height or velocity to pull it off, so you can only use it at close range. In addition, both Brick Break and Feint attack have a weird ground-shaking effect after the user lands. 5. Headbutt produces a fire effect when the target is hit, when it shouldn't.
*Snorunt*
0. It's a spriteswap of Froslass, which is also a partial spriteswap of my Mismagius. 1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Snorunt. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. Joshr's sprites aren't good, but you should use them at the very least. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. It takes the sound file from Froslass, which also has its own problems. 7. Thanks to the incomplete removal of Mismagius' "Levitiate" ability gimmick, a game bug occurs that, when the A.I. Level is set to 8 to turn abilities on, Snorunt becomes completely immune to direct damage. The only way to defeat it is to inflict poison, burn, or use weather effects.
*Spinarak*
1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its standing animation is horrible and it's jarring to watch. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are either too big or too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Leech Life is a Physical attack, NOT a Special attack. It's also supposed to have 80 power.
*Starmie*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Blastoise with a smidgen of Bellossom and Manaphy, which is wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Its portrait on the selection screen has lots of places where artifacts and the background colour wasn't removed correctly. It's a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Starmie. 2. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. 3. Its blue collisions fluctuate while its moving and attacking. 4. All of its stats, including its HP and typing, are wrong. 5. Its sound file is incredibly lackluster, having only three sound effects in the entire character. Some of them don't actually play because none of those sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 6. Starmie cannot learn Barrier in any of the videogames. We do not allow any illegal moves to be added in the pokemon we create for this game.
*Sunflora*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Leafeon with a smidgen of Bellossom and Venusaur, with its the ability "Leaf Guard" which it shouldn't have, and is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 1. Its move table on the selection screen is misaligned, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Sunflora. 2. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The animations are very jarring to watch, as they have a small amount of frames and don't contribute much to the pokemon at all. 3. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 4. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 5. Its sound file seems like it came from a Simpsons character by Warner, but neither of them actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself.
*Sylveon*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Mr.Mime. 1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait needs work as well. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 3. I'm sorry to say, but those sprites are not only totally unsuitable for this game, but they are horrid to look at. It's as if you ripped the sprites from a side-scrolling anime or game of some sort. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Swift is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, unless you intend to keep its ability on, Swift and Quick Attack shouldn't be a Fairy-type attack. 7. Thanks to the incomplete removal of Mr.Mime's "Filter" ability gimmick, a game bug occurs that, when the A.I. Level is set to 8 to turn abilities on, Sylveon becomes completely immune to direct damage. The only way to defeat it is to inflict poison, burn, or use weather effects.
*Togekiss*
1. Its big portrait on the selection screen is too big, and its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. All of its stats, including its HP, are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations; Togekiss just stands there as it "flies". 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. The character itself is too high above the ground, despite there being collisions on the floor. This gives the impression that the pokemon can miss most attacks by simply standing around. 7. Morning Sun uses the cry of Espeon.
*Treecko*
1. Its portrait is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Treecko. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations; they are very jarring to watch as Treecko moves and attacks. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 7. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it doesn't lower Special Attack after use.
*Tyrunt*
0. When loading the character, I get a ridiculous debug flood of "FVar index out of range". In addition, its name is misaligned on the P2 side. 1. Its sprites and animations need and overhaul, as the animations are too wooden to be of real use. 2. Its blue collisions are too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are unsuitable for this game. On certain frames, its like they've been modified from the anime. 4. All of its stats, including its HP, are wrong. It's also a Rock-type and therefore should gain any Special Defence benefits from Sandstorm. 5. Its typing is also wrong; Tyrunt shouldn't double-resist Electric and shouldn't be weak to Flying Press. The "Non-Type" is wrong as well. 6. Its sound file came from a Streets of Rage character, but neither of them actually play because none of the sound effects are referenced within the code itself. 7. Stone Edge uses an effect which is too small, and also doesn't convey the attack very well. 8. Bulldoze automatically sets the foe's speed to -6 regardless of what they had beforehand, when it shouldn't. It also sends the foe floating upwards until the move ends. 9. Poison Fang's chance to poison is seemingly 5%, but because the code keeps the opponent within the hurt state for more than one tick, it keeps recalculating whether the poison effect should happen or not, and so the actual chance ends up being around 65%.
*Victreebel*
1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Victreebel. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are misaligned and have horrible animations; they are very jarring to watch as Victreebel moves and attacks. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Neither of the sound effects actually play because none of them are referenced within the code itself. 7. Acid is a 10% chance to lower a stat, NOT 30%. Its power is also 40, NOT 90. 8. Poison Powder uses effects and animations that are horrible because you copied the sprites of Infestation and tacked them onto Sing. 9. Magical Leaf shouldn't have a high critical hit ratio.
*Varoom*
0. It's a partial spriteswap of Mismagius. 1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it looks bad and doesn't fit the style of the game in general. Please replace it with an unofficial portrait that tries to replicate the ones used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait needs work as well. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats and typing is wrong; The NON-type should be 1.0. 3. Its animations and sprites need work overall. The standing animation needs to be faster, while the moving animations have a wheel that turns in the wrong direction. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites" and "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 5. Its blue collisions fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Smog has 30 power and 70 accuracy, and a 40% chance to poison, NOT 90 power and 100 accuracy, and a 30% chance to poison. 7. Torment is broken; It causes the opponent to be stuck in an uncontrollable state, with the debug flood of "changed to invalid state" and "had no helper 701". 8. Because of leftover code from Magnezone, Flash Cannon gets buffed by "Analytic", which is wrong because Varoom doesn't have that ability. 9. Spin Out doesn't drop the user's speed after using it.
*Whiscash*
1. Its portrait on the selection screen is misaligned, and is a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. In addition, its Mystery Dungeon Portrait is wrong; you've made a custom one for a character that didn't need one. As the older Mystery Dungeon games went up to Generation 4, please use the official one made for Whiscash. 2. Its move table uses the wrong colours to represent its type. 2. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong. Its typing is also wrong; It's double-weak to Freeze-Dry, not single-weak. Also, though it's double-weak to Grass, the modifier should be 2.25, not 3.0. 3. Its sprites that aren't portraits are totally unsuitable for this game. 4. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 5. Its blue collisions are too small for the pokemon's size, and are all misaligned. In addition, it fluctuates while its moving and attacking. 6. Whiscash does not have a sound file. Is this intentional? 7. Unless you meant "Aqua Tail" due to regional name differences, Whiscash cannot learn Hydro Tail in any of the videogames because that move doesn't exist. Because we only use the English names of everything pokemon-related, we do not allow any regional names to be added in the content we create for this game. 7. Spark and Aqua Tail are Physical moves, NOT special moves. 8. Spark has 65 power, NOT 90.
*Xatu*
0. It's a total spriteswap of my Mr.Mime, complete with an untouched sound file and my initials in the ".cns" file ("Mr.Mime by Txpot"). 1. Because most of the code remains unchanged, it borrows the stats and typing of Mr.Mime, which is both wrong and a sign of laziness. 2. Thanks to the incomplete removal of Mr.Mime's "Filter" ability gimmick, a game bug occurs that, when the A.I. Level is set to 8 to turn abilities on, Xatu becomes completely immune to direct damage. The only way to defeat it is to inflict poison, burn, or use weather effects. 3. Tailwind doesn't work because the code requires Xatu's name to be added in to the "common1.cns" file.
Despite all of this, keep in mind that just because they aren't included in the official game, doesn't mean that you can't import additional creations later on. I'm just saying that we, as both creators and developers of the game as a whole, need to stick to a certain degree of standards to ensure that everything within the game is consistent with everything else.

Thanks for your comments! Sounds, Mystery Dongeon's Portrait are being modified. (I found this : https://sprites.pmdcollab.org/) Some points such as attack statistics or type weaknesses have already been fixed. I took the liberty of adding obscure, sheer cold and scrappy, of course I put Non-type back
For portraits, I can make it possible too. For STAB it's on wip too.
For palettes, even with a tutorial, I can't do it.

Some points such as attack statistics or type weaknesses have already been fixed. I took the liberty of adding obscure, sheer cold and scrappy, of course I put Non-type back.
Don't bother with adding extra type-resistances. Once I've established that I don't need anymore float variables for whatever I make, I'll add the extra types depending on what the general public wants. In the meantime, here are some points of interest:
1. Scrappy can be easily replicated by setting the move's type to the Non-type instead of the Normal/Fighting type when you come across a Ghost pokemon. Just remember that this should only be considered if you can determine which monsters Scrappy should be effective against, as this can cause Normal and Fighting-type attacks to bypass resistances, causing them to be overpowered.
2. Though there aren't any limits to what moves you can add in to the pokemon apart from what's legal or not, I would hold off of adding instant-kill moves such as Sheer Cold simply because it can cause certain fights to become unfair. There are better moves you can add that could be replicated in the game, so at least consider those before resorting to a potentially-cheap move.
3. I don't know what the "obscure" type is supposed to replicate. If it's supposed to be for Shadow Pokemon, then it's better to just use the Non-type for Shadow moves and make them deal 50% more damage.
You edited the post before I could post this, but for STAB, all you have to do is remove the *1.5 part of the attack's power. If your code looks like this:
For palettes, even with a tutorial, I can't do it.
Don't worry about the palettes; It's not an issue compared to the sprites. Once you fix the sprite issues for all your pokemon, I'll personally fix them myself.
Thanks for your comments! Sounds, Mystery Dongeon's Portrait are being modified. (I found this : https://sprites.pmdcollab.org/)
That's interesting, a website that dedicates itself to making their own custom Mystery Dungeon sprites. Alright, I'll make an exception for everyone to use those sprites if the pokemon they're working on are beyond Generation 4. Good find!
Finally, your earlier question regarding help with Avalanche:
I need some help to make avalanche, need "double damages if user receive attack before"
All you have to do is take the code for Counter/Mirror coat, and make it so that the move activates its attack regardless of whether the user is hit or not, then add the relevant variable so you can apply the extra damage.
This is an example taken from Wobbuffet, so modify for your own creations:

Hi! I am making the recommended modifications. However I have noticed that flareon and quilava have their flash fire which doesn't work...
I can assure you that Flash Fire does indeed work. Either you messed up how to implement it, or you don't know how to test to see if it works.
To activate abilities, you either select the character using Kick buttons instead of Punch buttons, or you fight the opponent at AI Level 8. Both of those will activate the character's abilities.
NOTE: If you're currently coding the character before releasing it, you can permanently enable abilities for the sake of debugging. This is the code that would activate abilities, so change the highlighted text;
Code:
[State VarSet];Ability type = VarSet trigger1 = palno = [4,6] ;<<< change this trigger2 = AILevel >= 8 v = 40 value = 1
to this:
Code:
[State VarSet];Ability type = VarSet trigger1 = 1 ;<<< change this trigger2 = AILevel >= 8 v = 40 value = 1
Let's use Quilava as an example. It has two abilities that can be used to test whether you're selecting the character using the right buttons; Blaze, and Flash Fire.
Select Quilava with either buttons, and then get the other monster to attack it until it has less than 1/3 of its life left. Observe Quilava and note the following;
1. Does it start emitting a fire effect from its body? 2. After using a Fire attack on Quilava, does it start emitting an aura of its own afterimage?
If it doesn't do either of those things, you haven't activated abilities on Quilava, so select the character using Kick buttons instead of Punch buttons and try again.
After its abilities are activated, you must check its code to see how Flash Fire works. How it works uses code like this:
Notice that Quilava/Flareon has "0.0 || 1" in their resistances to Fire. This grants an immunity to Fire damage, but as this is wrong because neither of them are immune to Fire under normal circumstances, we duplicate the type resistance code from the original and then modify it so that we can have immunity to Fire only when abilities are on.
Finally, this part of the code is important, as this tells you when Flash Fire is in effect.
Code:
[State VarSet];Flash Fire Boost type = VarSet triggerall = var(40) >= 1 trigger1 = gethitvar(fall.envshake.ampl) = 11 v = 42 value = 1
This adds a variable that activates Flash Fire when you get hit by Fire attacks. Remember that characters don't have to take damage in order to record when they're hit by a specific attack.
Now with all this involved, you must modify the attack state's Hitdef so that they are affected by Flash Fire. An example code is from Flareon's Flare Blitz:
Thanks a lot for your answer, I understand better now. I have an another request for Night Shade , I need to make him immune to normal type.
Assuming you meant that Night Shade shouldn't affect Normal-types, the simplest way is to set the move as a Ghost-type attack, and set var(8) to 2, like this:

Code:
[State 500, Set ATB] type = Null trigger1 = !time trigger1 = var(0):=floor((300)*fvar(38)) && var(8):=2 && var(9):=floor((100)*fvar(39))

Okay, the characters you've updated still need more work. It's as if you've rushed them out just so they can be accepted into this game, which you shouldn't make a priority at all. You need to take the time to fix everything that comes up as a problem, even if it isn't mentioned by me.
From A-Z order, here's my feedback:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*Applin*
0. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 1. Even though its portrait is a custom portrait, it's misaligned and should be in the center of the portrait's box. 2. Its collisions still change whenever it attacks, moves, or gets hurt. You need to keep ALL the blue collisions consistent with all the character's animations. 3. Its typing is still wrong; Applin should be double-resistant to Water and weak to Flying. 4. Rollout and Grassy Glide still have the same problems as before. 5. Pounce doesn't lower the opponent's speed, when it should.
*Bagon*
0. Its small box portrait on the selection screen is misaligned. 1. When loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. It still has the same standing animation problems as it did before, in that moves in frames of 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, making it jerky. You should set it to 1-2-3-4-3-2-1-5-6-7-6-5 to make it less wooden. 3. Its collisions still change whenever it attacks, moves, or gets hurt. You need to keep ALL the blue collisions consistent with all the character's animations. 4. Its sprites are misaligned whenever it attacks. 5. Headbutt produces a weird effect before the target gets hit by the attack, when it shouldn't. 6. Its cry doesn't play during its intro. 7. For some reason, Flamethrower and Dragon Breath are affected by whether Endure is on, in that they gain a power boost when Endure is active, which it shouldn't.
*Bayleef*
1. When loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. Its animations still need work overall. Its standing animation is misaligned, and its walking and standing animations are horrendous and very jarring to look at, to name a few. 3. Its HP and some of its stats are wrong. 4. Its blue collisions are still too big for the pokemon's size. In addition, they still fluctuate while its moving and attacking. 5. Body Slam was taken from Lapras, which still looks horrible on Bayleef because the attack itself hasn't changed much from the original version. 6. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it doesn't lower Special Attack after use, and its damage is too low because the damage is based at 90 power, NOT 130.
*Celebi*
1. When loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 2. The character itself is still too high above the ground. This gives the impression that the pokemon can miss most attacks by simply standing around. 3. Its intro is still bad; Not only can I still hear the trainer throw the pokeball despite it being non-existent, the way the pokemon comes out of the portal is horrible to look at. You need to rework the entire animation. 4. Leaf Storm is a Special Attack, NOT Physical. Also, it still doesn't lower Special Attack after use, and its damage is too low because the damage is based at 90 power, NOT 130. 5. Ancient Power uses sounds from Leaf Storm initially, but doesn't use any sounds for hitting the opponent, which is wrong.
*Cloyster*
0. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 1. Its palettes are bad; The shiny palette is totally wrong, as if you only highlighted a specific part of colours and used a colourize tool or something, as the palette is missing important colours related to shading. 2. Though the original sprite sheet had few total sprites to use (about 16 unique sprites out of 23 total), you didn't rip them all out, neither did you rip them out properly; the standing animation highlights certain sprites with artifacts that wasn't removed correctly, and also highlights that you're using one of Cloyster's melee attack sprites as a standing animation. 3. Its typing is wrong; Cloyster should not be resistant to Fire, should take normal damage against Freeze-Dry, and should be weak to Flying Press. You could've just taken this from Lapras as an easy fix. 4. Twineedle looks bad on Cloyster because it's directly ripped from Beedrill.
*Combusken*
0. It still feels like a partial spriteswap of Charizard. As such, it uses Charizard's sound effects which is totally wrong. 1. Its portrait is still a custom portrait and not one of the official portraits used for Generation 5. 2. Its typing is still wrong; Combusken is not weak to Rock. 3. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 4. Its cry doesn't play during its intro. 5. The sounds used for Night Slash are bad, as it sounds like they're used for an earth-based attack, and so they don't convey the attack at all.
*Cottonee*
0. It still feels like a spriteswap of Ribombee. 1. When loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 2. Its typing is still wrong; Cottonee is resistant to Electric and takes normal damage from Rock and Flying Press. 3. Its cry doesn't play during its intro or when it wins a fight. 4. Its sprites are horrible because you didn't set up the palettes correctly, and so the palettes themselves screw up the sprites. 5. The plants from Leech Seed are still misaligned. 6. The sounds used for Leech Seed are bad because they came from Pollen Puff, and so they don't convey the attack at all. 7. Meanwhile, the sounds used for Fairy Wind are horrible for people with sensitive ears. You need to change the hit sounds at the very least, so that you don't blow out someone's speakers while playing the character.
*Croconaw*
0. When loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 1. Except its HP, all of its stats are wrong once again. 2. Its shiny palette uses the wrong colours again. 3. It's standing animation moves in frames of 1-2-3-4-5-6-7, making it jerky. You should set it to 1-2-3-4-3-2-1-5-6-7-6-5 to make it less wooden. 4. Scald's chance to inflict burn is 30%, NOT 32%. 5. Ice Fang has an attack collision box that is still too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions. Its chance to inflict Freeze/Flinch is also wrong. As it stands, you can either Freeze the target with a 1% chance, or Flinch a target with a 1.4% chance, which is horrendous.
Also, PLEASE remove any and all files that ARE NOT related to the character at all (Combusken is the worst offender, having files from FOUR different characters in one folder!).

0. Again, when loading the character, I get a debug flood of "Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1". 1. Its standing animation has a sprite that uses the wrong colours. 2. Again, Rollout still have the same problems as before. 3. When the user lands after attacking with Grassy Glide, the user jutters up and down before it ends the attack itself. You need to change that to something better and less jarring to the eyes.
*Bagon*
0. Again, when loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 1. It STILL has the same standing animation problems as it did before, in that moves in frames of 0-1-2-3-4-5-6, making it jerky. You should set it to 0-1-2-3-2-1-0-4-5-6-5-4 to make it less wooden. 2. Headbutt's chance to flinch should be 30%, NOT 1%.
*Bayleef*
0. Again, when loading the character, I still get a debug flood of "Missing Required Sprites". 1. Its standing animation is bad, as it cycles between Bayleef opening and closing its mouth with little variation to body movements. The original sprite sheet had a better standing animation you could've used, rather than use the result of what you did now. 2. Leaf Storm still doesn't lower Special Attack after use because you've placed the code in a helper state that uses a blank animation, and so the code will never work properly. Also, its damage is too low because the damage is based at 126 power, NOT 130.
3a. Body Slam still looks horrible on Bayleef. You might as well copy the animation and code used for Venusaur's Take Down if you still insist on using Lapras as a base for Body Slam. 3b. In addition, its attack range is lower than before, which decreases the chances of the move hitting the opponent. 3c. The chance to paralyse the opponent is seemingly 80% because you've duplicated the code that handles paralysis.
"Can't Map Palette 1.1 to 1.1" is solved by making palettes for the characters themselves. Use this chance as practice to make palettes for the pokemon you create.
Meanwhile, "Missing Required Sprites" requires you to create hurt sprites for the missing required sprites. For example, if it says "Missing Required Sprites 5011,10", you duplicate the hurt sprite and group it as 5011,10.

*Applin*
1. Its blue collisions are too small for the Pokemon's size. If you're using Kung Fu Man as a base, you need to use his smallest collisions in the standing animation in the .air file. 2. Rollout still have the same sprite problems as before. You might as well copy the walking animation and edit it so that it moves forward faster, and use THAT as the attack, rather than use code to replicate the rolling effect.
a. Headbutt's chance to flinch is seemingly 30%, but because the attack keeps the opponent in the state for a longer time than necessary, the actual chance is close to 90%. You fix this by resetting the move's hit detection using the below code, placing it right below the "TargetState": b. In addition, its attack collision box is too small, and can miss smaller characters and/or collisions.
1. Leaf Storm still doesn't lower Special Attack after use because you've placed the code in a helper state that uses a blank animation, and so the code will never work properly. You should replace "animtime" with "time" so that it works regardless of any animation displayed. 2a. Body Slam shouldn't flatten the enemy because the attack itself is a ram attack rather than a stomp or crush. You should remove the "AngleDraw" in the opponent's state, then set the time the opponent should be in the state to 10 rather than 80 so that they get out of the hurt state quicker. 2b. Its accuracy is 100, NOT 85.
For Applin's Rollout=> on data/common1.cns you must search all "rollout" and add :
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
; Go to rollout for Applin [State Rollout] type = ChangeState triggerall = name = "Applin" trigger1 = var(46) = 1 trigger1 = var(45) > 0 trigger1 = var(1)=var(0) value = 500 ctrl = 0
; Reset Rollout [State ] type = Null trigger1 = movetype = H && name="Applin" trigger1 = var(46):=0 && var(45):=0
[State 500, SetRollout] type = VarSet trigger1 = Time = 6 && name="Applin" var(47) = 1
For the last "rollout", just add trigger 2 ; Reset Rollout [State ] type = VarSet trigger1 = name = "Jigglypuff" trigger2 = name = "Applin" var(47) = 0
You don't need to modify the common1.cns file at all for what you're trying to do. For your own creations, all you need to do is copy the relevant state(s) you want to modify from the common1.cns file to the character's .cns file, and then work from there. (Don't copy statedef -2, or you'll literally break the game.)
For example, the relevant modifications to Rollout involve [StateDef 1] and [StateDef 2000], so copy those entire states and place them in your character's state files, then modify them in your character's state, as you'll see below:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Code:
;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ;Stand [StateDef 1] type = S physics = S velset = 0,0 sprpriority = 0 anim = 0 ctrl = 0
[State SelfState] ;Are you dead? type = SelfState trigger1 = !alive value = 5050 ctrl = 0
[State ChangeState] type = ChangeState trigger1 = abs(fvar(0)-pos x)>5 && var(4)!=[4,5] value = 2000
[State Reset Position] type = PosSet trigger1 = !time && abs(fvar(0)-pos x)<=5 x = fvar(0) y = 0
; Go to rollout for Jigglypuff [State Rollout] type = ChangeState trigger1 = var(46) = 1 trigger1 = var(45) > 0 trigger1 = var(1)=var(0) value = 500 ctrl = 0
; Reset Rollout [State ] type = Null trigger1 = movetype = H trigger1 = var(46):=0 && var(45):=0
[State 500, SetRollout] type = VarSet trigger1 = Time = 6 var(47) = 1
[State Turn] type = Turn trigger1 = P2Dist X < 0 && facing!=ifelse(teamside=1, 1, -1)
[State SelfState] type = SelfState trigger1 = roundstate >= 3 value = 0 ctrl = 1
;============================================================================= ;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Walk Back To Start Position [StateDef 2000] type = S movetype = I anim = 20 ctrl = 0
[State 2000, VelSet] type = VelSet trigger1 = !time x = const(velocity.walk.fwd.x)
[State 2000, PosSet] type = PosSet trigger1 = pos y!=0 y = pos y - (pos y/15)
[State 2000, PlayerPush] type = PlayerPush trigger1 = 1 value = 0 ignorehitpause = 1
[State 2000, ChangeState] type = ChangeState trigger1 = abs((fvar(0))-pos x)<=5 value = ifelse(!var(46), 1, 0) ctrl = 1
The reason why this works is because of a quirk in MUGEN's default engine; MUGEN doesn't allow multiples of the same statedef number to exist while loading everything. In the case of two "StateDef" of the same number existing at the same time, MUGEN will load the files from the characters first, then the files from the game's sub-folder (common1.cns, etc) and then disregard any additional statedef with the same number. In other words, MUGEN will load only one statedef of the same number at a time, prioritizing the character's files first before anything else.

TXPOT: thanks a lot for your help, I appreciate. (for palette=> that doesn't work: tutorials I found confused me more than they helped me)
Alright, I have a question for you; What do you do during the creation process of making and updating a Pokemon?
I'm asking this because most of the feedback I'm giving you relates to problems that were already fixed in a previous update or so. In the last update alone, Applin only needed its collision boxes fixed and Rollout to have the attack be made in the same quality as Jigglypuff. Now, there's more problems that need fixing that didn't need fixing in the first place, because you already fixed them before or they didn't have an issue to begin with. It's as if that, rather than take the previous update and improve on it, you took the character from a much older update and decided to work on THAT. You should never do this, unless the previous update had a quirk that you liked but you didn't get to implement it properly at the right time.
Anyway, feedback:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
*Applin*
1. Its blue collisions are still too small for the Pokemon's size, and are inconsistent with some of the Pokemon's attacks unlike the previous update. Please refer to my previous post for feedback regarding the collisions. 2. Thanks to blinking and inconsistent red collisions, Rollout will not hit a target with smaller collision boxes. Against itself, Applin will miss the second rollout attack because it moves too fast for the collisions to hit it, regardless of accuracy problems. 3. When performing Draco Meteor or its winning animation, the character's animations features a disappearing sprite that shows up continuously. 4. When performing Pounce, the character's attack animation features a disappearing sprite that shows up during the jump.
*Bagon*
1. Flamethrower and Dragon Breath has a weird blue collision box that's too big for the sprite itself, and doesn't use the same collisions as other Pokemon that uses the same attack, when it should.
*Bayleef*
1. Leaf Storm still has the same problems as before. 2a. Body Slam doesn't flatten the enemy anymore, but the opponent just stands there after they get hit, which looks wrong. Also, because the attack keeps the opponent in the state for a longer time than necessary, the actual chance to paralyze is not 30%, but is closer to 60%. 2b. All other problems about Body Slam still persist since the last update, so please refer to my previous post for feedback regarding the attack itself.
Also, PLEASE DON'T DELETE POSTS FOR WHATEVER REASON; it breaks the flow of the topic itself. (I know this because you copied the last paragraph from your week-ago previous post to this newest one.) If you have to omit information out of a post because it's outdated or whatever, use the Strikethrough function to cross out the offending information. You know how to use Spoiler functions, so this shouldn't be difficult to do.
