So to continue the topic from last thread.
Hows this?

>>20557540
>Megahorn Basilect:
>https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/doImakeyoumegahornybabydoI
Really? It actually got a survey.

What about High Jump Kick on everything that has legs? Wait, that actually makes more sense than MH Basilect.

How about HJK on something that doesn't have legs?

>>20557579
It's great m8, can you make a version with the side area and small town colors swapped?

>>20557579
Feel like the gold cities are too big. You follow the route map anyway, it's not like they need to be huge to be noticed.

>>20557540
>>20557633
Reminder that the answer is Cahokisect, that other Cahokisect answer or "Illinois a shit, fuck you Dunky and your Shitcago leanings, I come from the [insert name of shitty location in the United States not named the MIDBEST, or some foreign location that is probably alright]"

Also it "got a survey" because Dunky decided to make one with his personal account. That's it. This is pretty much a strawpoll with privileges.

>>20557579
Gold blends in with the green. How about red?

Can't wait till basilect gets to keep megahorn

>>20557685
Yeah, it is Dunky bias. He could say that the survey will show what people want, but that really is muh bro tier move distribution. Just because someone something doesn't make it right.

>>20557579
I'd say red or blue instead of yellow

>>20557704
someone wants something*

>>20557704
You comment sounds dictatorish if not worse communistic

>>20557685
>>20557704
We talked about doing this a week ago fuckers. It's still being shitposted, still being argued, so we're going to end it now. If you want to spend the next year dealing with megahorn shit, be my guest, but the survey is going to end the discussion.

Quit being salty and just vote. If it wins, it wins. If it loses, it loses. Stop talking about it

Also fuck you >>20557685 dude. What kind of cunt goes and ruins the filter.

Note: this is only about Quibble and Fowattle.
Only Turkistador gets the magic shaman moves, only Fowattle gets the Rock and Ground moves aside from Mud Slap which is given even to Normal/Flying types.

>>20557725
I'm saying forcing a survey because you want a move that doesn't fit is wrong and hurts integrity. A survey doesn't make mandibles into horns and it will have a bad taste in game.

Besides, we have plenty physical bugs that have to make due without MH, yet it is being forced upon the strongest of them. Not saying I want them to get it either because that doesn't fit and isn't right either, but with that in mind we could make them good other ways.

>>20557749

>>20557689
Gold is perfectly visible over green, red makes too much contrast.

>>20557640
Pretty shit, the smaller towns look like they are inaccessible or something, like a turned off light.

>>20557717
Blue looks bad to me, any lighter or greener and its the same color as the water.
The only good looking options are gold and maybe purple/pink.

>>20557749
>What kind of cunt goes and ruins the filter.
You did. Sorry but that question is just incompetent. Not even the fact that you asked what name can be connected to Illinois, but the way you did it including having at least two correct answers.

>>20557749
Whining isn't reason enough to survey something. You should have just been strict and accepted that you were wrong and say fuck no, it shouldn't get Megahorn.

Something like this could work, but I still much prefer gold.
If you guys have something specific in mind feel free to recolor it yourself, there's only a few shades.

>>20557768
Gold is the best here but I'm not sure about the pale red small towns. The small town color from here looks better >>20557799.

>>20557817
If that's you trying to make me notice your post, I see you m8. Testing smaller sprites isn't as fast as sliding colors around.
The big ones are only 1 pixel bigger in each direction, so to make it smaller all the towns would be the same size. I personally like them that size because it's closer to the actual size of the towns, it would be weird for dronia to be a tiny dot while the forest is huge.

Ok if I tone down the red a bit it's not bad, how is this?

>>20557858
If you reduced size wouldn't all towns be the same size on the map? They're just locations on a map, and I don't think they should give away just what they are. I wouldn't mind if it was just one huge city, or one captial like city, but the majority of the cities are big on that map and they pop out like crazy compared to the smaller ones, which just confuses you considering you will just be following the routes anyway.

And having different sized means having different target sizes for flying.

>>20557916
>And having different sized means having different target sizes for flying.
The grid makes them all work the same, your cursor locks to 4x4 pixel squares in a grid.
And yeah they could be all the same size, but I just think that would look shit.

Sorry for taking several months to do this QB.

>>20558194

>>20557800
No way, the transparent routes look way better. Plus that'll make it even more busy.

>>20558064
Survey it is.

>>20558064
and you would be correct.

>>20557916
there needs to be size differences to make the map points less monotonous. different sizes implies variety in the settlements (without being too busy). It's good as is.

>>20557579
I still think this is the best one. Or the one with all gold town markers.

Clean and simple, no need to muck it up.

>>20558245
>Plus that'll make it even more busy
Not really. If anything I am willing to agree they would be equally "busy". With transparent you get many more different colors because of the dark overlay, and you get two dark lines. Without transparent you get a solid one colour with outlines. I think that the solid is easier to read and displays the interactive parts of the map better.

>>20558304
I agree with you, people just really wanted red for some reason.

I'm done working on it, you guys feel free to improve it.

>>20558283
>there needs to be size differences to make the map points less monotonous. different sizes implies variety in the settlements (without being too busy). It's good as is.
>There needs to be
No. That's an opinion. And when almost every city is "a big city" as it looks like on the map, it's kind of redundant, and instead of big cities for the big cities it's more like small cities for small cities.

To have variety, you need variety. Or you can have one-two big cities that stand out and don't clutter the map.

>>20558335
of course that was an opinion - we're discussing subjective map layouts/colouring ... do I really have to preface everything with "IMO there needs to be"?
Sorry I assumed that would be obvious from context.

>big cities for the big cities
I think the idea is not so much about size but importance, i.e. the larger dots are gym towns.

>>20558308
i understand what you mean by the dark overlay, in terms of more shades, but i don't think the human eye registers the shaded areas as different colours.

What I mean is that an opaque route will add an additional prominent colour, and will draw the eye ... which will make it seem like more is going on.

>>20558422
How about just making it solid like gen 4?

And doesn't cities in the official game just wary in color between blue and red? I see there being shape differences, but the shapes follows the squares on the map that the city covers.

>>20558535
>>20558547
Where is the post game?

>>20558580
I would assume we will give a button to switch to the postgameislands map since were not gonna make a third of the map space something you can't access, especially when we have no clue what they are going to look like. Either way you are dumb.

>>20558580
Rematches & sidequests. Although a lot of side quests will already be accessible before post game, it's a bit different.

>>20558575
>them solid routes.

We have a winner.

>>20558687
>Pure white blocks used just to layout the paths
You're dumb. Also solid routes are shit, especially with out big areas, they block out the region.

>>20558535
You leave Dacapo to the south to get to Route 1, not the east.

>>20558535
>>20558734
Perhaps we should sort out a layout (or a couple of layouts) first.

>>20558710
Easy to read. Doesn't have to be white. For me it makes the region look big.

>>20558786
it does make the region look big, i'll give you that. But the background layer is so pretty, why don't you want to show it off??

Also doesn't look as clean.

>>20558831
Because I think a map's function is more important than its looks.

>>20558734
>>20558766
It's not significant enough to warrant it looking like this. In canon maps, the actual exit direction doesn't matter as much as you might think. It just gives you an idea of the paths.

>>20558893
Wait, that makes it sound like I didn't think the solid color looks good/better. But I think that.

>>20558786
They're more visible, but all that does for me is make the appalling perfectly straight routes through the jungle stand out. (Of all places, the jungle has the beelines.)

How about making the white semi-transparent and see what that does?

>>20558893
That time we talked about this, there was a faggot preferring looks to geographical accuracy.

>>20558919
I'm all for more suggestions. It's just my opinion. It will go to survey anyway.

>>20558902
Can you provide any examples where the Town Map shows a route leaving a town in a completely different cardinal direction to how the maps go? Gens 5 and 6 with their diagonals don't count because we have a grid-based Town Map and they don't.

Need a new move? Why not megahorn?

You said no gen 5, but

is clearly is going upwards on the map, but it goes to the side in-game.
There might be more this is just the first thing I thought of, but either way the actual route goes right so I don't think it should go down first.

But the whole gist of traveling through Route 2 is to travel vertically. There is no western extension of the route and you can see it immediately doubles back on itself to go north to Striaton.

This is pretty damn straight too.
I understand that it does go down a bit, it's just not significant enough to go an extra 4+ pixels down on the map.

>>20559380
Haha I can't post anything without goofing at least one thing up, can I?

>>20559461
Yay, that looks great! I'll also try making her a little thinner.

>>20559404
Hmmm, the only changed color was the face shade being slightly darker because the face details weren't showing up, unless you're referring to something else?

So like, what's the deal with Upward Cave anyway?

If the league entrance is in dacapo, wouldnt you just fly there instead of going through Route 22 and Upwards cave?

Seems like yet another thing we didn't think through.

>>20559576
Bottom leaf being shiny as fuck was what I meant.

>>20559587
That's a great point! In fact, why don't you just fly to every location? Game freak really didn't think it through when they added these "route" things.

>>20559587
Upwards Cave is to get back to Dacapo. That's about it. Get to Victory Road from Dacapo. This has always been the plan since the inception of Upwards Cave that it allows us to make the region truly circular

>>20559587
You aren't given Fly until you beat the League.

>>20559537
>it's just not significant enough
That would be your opinion.

The exit at the east end of Route 1 is about 20 tiles further south than the absolute very bottom of Dacapo. That's the height of half a Town Map square, which makes the exit (which is vertically centred in the Route) half a Town Map square below Dacapo.

The numbers match up perfectly to support the southern connection.

>>20559648
>Upwards Cave is to get back to Dacapo. That's about it.
Except you can just fly right away to dacapo after getting the 8th badge. I guess it's similar how you could just fly to viridian right after beating blaine, but it seems like wasted potential and doesn't have the same surprise factor as finding out who the "secret" 8th gym leader was.

>>20559652
This sounds like it'd be the only other option. I don't think everyone would be down for that though.

>>20557532

I feel like I've seen these threads constantly for like two years now. How much progress have you guys actually made in the last month for example? I'm wonder how slow/quickly the process is going.

>>20559727
We're working on plot and have finished our Dark gym leader design. We're chugging along

>>20559712
Then we do some shit to make the player go through Upwards Cave. No big deal. We can get creative

>>20559727
plot's getting done, dark leader concept and steel leader sugi, various battle sprites, various overworld sprites, movesets etc, probably a few maps too

'slow but thorough and broad' is how I'd describe our progress, but not slow enough to be close to paralysis

>>20559727
Not as fast as we'd like but it's going. Our constant autistic debating over trivial matters does ensure the quality of this game, however.

>>20559727
Those threads are always up no matter how fast or slow the progress is.
Also check out the demo if you want to see how far we are (except things go faster now with basics like pokemon out of the way).

>>20559760
that sounds like a plot thing, and the outlines have already been made. So let's hope the winning one has something in UpCave then, i guess?

Ohhh okay, got it. How's this now?

>>20559712
I think this is a fair point. Would it be worthwhile to force players to take Upwards Cave at least once before they can get into Victory Road?

>>20559347

>>20559760
>Then we do some shit to make the player go through Upwards Cave. No big deal. We can get creative
There are a shit ton of optional routes in pokemon, you're a moron if you don't explore them. We don't need to force players to play the game, people know to follow paths and will do so. Especially when it means missing out on possible new pokemon.

>>20559821
>Wait! you can't enter this jungle! I dropped my glasses inside and am still looking for them.

>>20559858
I chuckled. Do you have to find their glasses which they dropped somewhere completely different?

>>20559779
None of them do. It would have been excellent to introduce a pathway to the Golden City here but those who wrote plots dropped the ball there. Not as bad as that guy who made it so there is a huge tower in Ossia that is tallest in the region to find something and completely forgot about the huge tower we have on the map

I was thinking more along the lines of something not plot, but like Ricardo was seen running into Upwards Cave or the keystone that you place your badges in that opens Victory Road is in here, or maybe something like an HM is hidden in there.

>>20559802
>>20559821
Soakoth blocking Train Path and everyone is yelling at Soakoth
"God damn you Soakoth you fat lard"
"I hate you fat fat fatty"
"I PULLED A MUSCLE IN MY BACK TRYING TO MOVE YOU, I HATE YOU SOAKOTH"

>>20559858
I don't get what your problem is then man. You're complaining about Upwards Cave yet you're saying optional routes are fine. What are you trying to get at here

>>20559858
>>20559821
Assuming we're still using HMs and having an HM-mandatory Victory Road, we could just throw the last needed HM at the top of Upwards Cave to force people up there.

>>20559898
Dude, he didn't complain at all.

Didn't you hear me? I said quiver dance

>>20559898
Upward Cave is not Victory Road. Upward Cave is more like Route 45 in Johto - completely unnecessary but has a few exclusive Pokémon and other places to explore.

There is no need at all to force the player up it.

different dude.

I just think it's weird that you don't actually have to complete the "circle" to finish the game. Considering our hard on for circles and cycles and shit, it's funny how you can just cut off at the end and make it a C.

Gen 2 still had 2 great routes before victory road. You couldn't just fly straight there. This isn't like making another route 45. This is like cutting out Route 26 and 27. Could you imagine how GSC would have been without you stepping into Kanto soil for the first time, having https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YP6-sqMQJ9s play and tackling 2 huge routes before the climax of the game?

>>20560033
>If you're being a cunt, then yeah
muh opinion

Stop calling out people calling you out for being assholes, cunt.

>>20560048
Thanks man.

I know we've talked about Victory Road itself being this massive and epic endeavor where it involves traveling through a glacier, possibly underwater navigating through glacial water tunnels to get to different levels, coming out on top of the glacier and traveling towards mountain paths and then traversing sheer cliffs, rickety bridges, and icy pathways. I get where you're going though.

Frankly, we have plenty of room to make something as memorable if not more so than Johto pre-Victory Road routes. While the route may not be as long in straightshot distance, we can always involve changes in altitude and height and make the entire victory road a MASSIVE endeavor with multiple checkpoints, perfect music, and excellent environments

just came by to say that i love you all.
i played the demo and it was fun.
looking forward to the game.

>>20560114
I have no worries that victory road won't be something crazy. I'll make sure of that myself.
I'm just saddened that we don't have a rising action to the climax like route 26/27, Unova 10 and 23 or Sinnoh's 223.
It's a similar reason why I thought the build up to Hoenn's VR to be a little weak. Because it was just a short surf from Sootopolis to get there and nothing else.

>>20560163
Going home isn't part of the climax rise, you loop back around, spend some time with your mom, have tea with your rival or some shit. Then you man up and begin your ascent.

>>20559973
>No, but here's a comparison. Keep in mind Gardevoir is taller than Capullily.
Why does that matter? Sprite sizes aren't entirely dependant on size. Nidoking is a tiny little rabbit but its sprite is gigantic. Gallade's sprite appears to be slightly bigger considering Garde is levitating, even though theyre the same size. What happened to that image that said Sprite size does not reflect actual size?

>>20560193
that sounds way lamer than trekking through swamps, water, grasslands and mountains and then a big ass cave.

>>20560141
Don't worry. quiver dance and baton pass will probably, maybe get surveyed eventually by someone. Perhaps.

>>20560216
Nidoking is 4'07"

But there are more reasons for both quiver dance and baton pass than megahorn, I don't see why it wasn't just included in the survey.

Why does Comossus get hyper beam?

>>20560416
It's a Laputa

>>20560416
Because its fully evolved.

Also its based on something that shoots beams.

>>20560416

Which mons needs OW´s for our next demo?

Can Viipii pass Egg moves down? So that if a Pokemon learns a move by breeding and Viipii is the only possible 'mon that can learn it naturally, it could be passed from Viipii to non-Viipii offspring

>>20560892

How about these changes?
Hyper Beam only on Cosmossus, made it so Growlem learns moves faster than Cosmossus, switched Cosmic Power for Leaf Shield, switched Energy Ball for Grass Knot, changed Rock Polish to Rock Slide, and changed what levels some moves are learnt at so that these changes would make sense.

>>20561376
You on skype?

Also follow, >>20561591
I'd give it solarbeam at 72 instead of Superpower

>>20561606
>you on Skype
no, because I'm not a faggot. Solarbeam is a great idea since Superpower is a tutor move anyway.
>>20561591
also, pokemon are supposed to learn moves slower their evolved forms, so how about keeping it 8 levels apart before evolution and then 10 levels apart after evolution. That way Comossus learns its last move at level 100 like Volcarona.

>>20561746
Larvesta learns moves the same levels Volcarona does; every ten. The only difference is Volc learns a move at 59 and learns Special moves instead of physical (Fiery Dance and Heat Wave, rather than Flare Blitz and Flame Wheel respectively)

Well, they're both me actually, but it seems you have the right idea.

>We make the maps to match up to the Town Map. Problem solved. We should be doing that anyway.
No.

The town map is a simplified version of the region map that's set up to work based on grids. Even in the GF games, the town map does not match up 1:1 with the maps in game or the region map, it has always been a simplified version of it. We voted on a region map ages ago, and that is what we will use. We are not invalidating 2 years of map surveys.

People have consistently bitched at me about map limitations and how they don't want to have to follow the region map. Following a town map would be even stricter.

The Comossus line didn't need nearly as much fixing as Monkeyfuckr implied.

>>20564101
You may not have noticed, but the region map uses a grid as well. It's made of squares. Another of your statements that I reject is your claim that the Town Map is "simplified". It isn't. It's just compacted to fit into the space provided. Everything is still in there and in the same places. Nothing about the Town Map makes mapping more strict than the region sketch does.

Maps may not match up perfectly to either representation of the region. That's fine.

However, the region sketch will need to be shortened vertically in order to fit into the space provided and become the Town Map. This means vertical routes may have significant height differences, which just makes maps based on the region sketch that much more "off model" when compared to the Town Map.

The only thing affected are the sizes of some maps that have not yet been made or even imagined. This is no impact at all.

Since maps don't match up perfectly to a region representation anyway, I see no harm in using the Town Map (which is in-game) as a base for the maps (which are in-game).

Your stance appears to be based entirely around "it came first", which is no argument at all.

>>20564315
Cosmossus is genderless so no breeding moves. Besides viipii stuff if any fit.

As for those tutor moves, gunkshot is way out their, hyper voice is kinda iffy, painsplit is iffy too and ominous wind doesn't fit unless their is something from laputa that justifies it(I haven't made the time to watch it yet). Other than those moves I think they all fit well.

>>20564315
I can see Comossus getting Signal Beam since it's a beam move.
Also the line is more Rock types covered in plants, so it might be fitting to give it Fire or Ice Punch as well.
Also, you put Seed Bomb under the tutor move it doesn't get.

>>20564380
>You may not have noticed, but the region map uses a grid as well. It's made of squares.
No, it's not.I've explained this before: The grids on the region map are simply there because it makes it easier to view.

>However, the region sketch will need to be shortened vertically in order to fit into the space provided and become the Town Map.
That's false: The town map's aspect ratio does not need to occupy the maxium allowed resolution for it: It can have black bars with contextual information on them, furthermore, I am capable of editing the region map to be wider, thinner, taller, or shorter in order to make it fit: As is, the region map needs to be extended vertically to make room for the E4 location.

>The only thing affected are the sizes of some maps that have not yet been made or even imagined. This is no impact at all.
That has a HUGE impact: That means every single map will have to match 1:1 with the town map, which means every prior map will have to be changed as well.

>Since maps don't match up perfectly to a region representation anyway
That's false: The region map matches 1:1 with in game maps because that's what the region map is: It's the in game maps. The grids on the region map are simply there to make visualizing how the routes easier, and those grid spots are modified to best show how the in game routes look on the map.

If we aren't going to make the in game maps fit 1:1 with the town map anywise, then what changes by using switching to the town map as our base? Fucking nothing, except for the fact the region map becomes invalidated. It's a waste of logistical time. We are doing it as GF does it, there is no reason to change.

>Your stance appears to be based entirely around "it came first", which is no argument at all.
My argument is that we voted in a region map and we voted in following that, not a town map. And that's a fact and that's not changing, unless you also want to allow us to use gen 6 moves, etc

>>20564457
yeah, ominous wind doesn't make any sense.

>>20564669
>>20564457
Agreed with ominous wind not making sense, everything else looks good.

>>20564457
Gunk Shot I guess I can take off. Hyper Voice has extremely wide distribution. Pain Split is learned by Chesnaught by level up, and Tangela and Lileep's lines by tutor. Also, Comossus gets a variety of Psychic moves by level up, so it seems fitting.

I can take off Ominous Wind, but i kept it because it fits with Overshadow, at least by name. But im taking it off anyway.

>>20564896
I do like signal beam but I think that your justification is enough for fire and ice punch.

>>20565015

>>20565092
Think of it this way. If it was just a Rock type with not plants in the design then would you find Ice and Fire Punch more fitting?
If you do then I don't see how just adding plants to the design would really change that especially when there are no plants anywhere near the hands.

>>20564657
>No, it's not.I've explained this before: The grids on the region map are simply there because it makes it easier to view.
How are you saying that with a straight face? The towns and routes of the region sketch are composed entirely of squares. That's a grid.

>furthermore, I am capable of editing the region map to be wider, thinner, taller, or shorter in order to make it fit
I'm not comfortable with this statement. Why are you allowed to change things, but my suggesting that it be tweaked to fit the Town Map is forbidden?

I won't debate specific tweaks necessary to make a Town Map, but there will almost certainly be some.

>That has a HUGE impact: That means every single map will have to match 1:1 with the town map, which means every prior map will have to be changed as well.
This is NO different than requiring that "every single map will have to match 1:1 with the" region sketch, which is what we currently do. If the specific tweaks necessary to turn the region sketch into the Town Map don't alter the relative sizes of the routes/towns that are already mapped (which is what I assume will happen), then no map changes are required.

>what changes by using switching to the town map as our base? Fucking nothing
If "fucking nothing" changes, then there's no harm in doing so. As I explained, doing so has the ADVANTAGE of having an in-game Town Map better represent in-game maps.

>We are doing it as GF does it
How is that, exactly?

>>20565152
>Think of it this way. If it was just a Rock type with not plants in the design then would you find Ice and Fire Punch more fitting?
Ice Punch goes on a few rock types.
Fire Punch goes on almost none

So no, Id still not give it those punches if it was mono-rock

>>20564657
>unless you also want to allow us to use gen 6 moves, etc
No strawmen, please.

>>20565177
not every map has to be 1:1 or whatever. it is very loose, like maps themselves. towns don't look like that. it's a lose representation. our regions are flexible to the quality of maps, and fit of our routes

>>20565214
Alright, it was just a suggestion.
Everything else fine on the Tutors except for Hyper Voice, but you said you would fix that.

>>20565258
I would agree, but the process is that we make maps based on the size they're depicted as being in a particular representation of the region, so they'll end up being practically that size anyway. This results in every map being practically the size depicted in that region representation. Theoretically it's flexible, but in practice it doesn't happen.

If we're doing that (and we are), then I would say that it's better for the region representation to be the in-game Town Map, because both it and the maps are in-game.

Other than Hyper Voice, if I get more responses to that last one I can update the wiki. Otherwise I'll shelve it for later...

>>20565445
No I didn't think you were be rude.
In fact I was worried that I was coming off as being defensive.
I was just trying to say that I wasn't dead set on getting the punching moves so I don't mind that much about not getting them.

Just popping in to say that all those route maps at the beginning of the thread with transparent routes are completely wrong. The only three cities we have for sure are Dronia, Vivace and Ossia. All other settlements are towns except for Coda which may be considered a city as well. The town map has to reflect this.

>>20565392
I've argued with you multiple times before on this and I still think your view is completely wrong by the way. Don't think that Majora's shitty arguing is a represrntation of anything but how he sees it.

>How are you saying that with a straight face? The towns and routes of the region sketch are composed entirely of squares. That's a grid.
Now, they aren't.

Again: I just added that to make it easier to view. Here's what it actually looks like.

>>20565177
>I'm not comfortable with this statement. Why are you allowed to change things, but my suggesting that it be tweaked to fit the Town Map is forbidden?
Because the town map is a simplification of the region map. I don't understand why this is so hard to comprehend. Due to the fact that the town map is fixed to have grids set up horizontally and vertically, and not diagnolly, and because of the fact that our maps are not designed with that in mind, it is inherently less accurate to how the region actually looks.

Changing the region map to fit the town map does nothing except makes it less accurate to the in game routes.

Also, as I explained to you over skype, just so everybody else knows: I am not inherently oppossed to other people making edits to the region map, I am just opposed to it being done without consulting me and others in a way that making sure there are no conflicts or logistical issues occur. it's just easier to have one person handle the region map because it insures that everything fits and there are no conflicts or issues from multiple people making changes.

I plan on making a guide that will help make it so other people can make edits, soon.

>>20565392
>>20565177
>If "fucking nothing" changes, then there's no harm in doing so. As I explained, doing so has the ADVANTAGE of having an in-game Town Map better represent in-game maps.

Except not. Nothing would change EXCEPT for the fact that the region map, THAT WE VOTED IN, is invalidated. The town map is going to be less accurate to how the maps actually look then the region map no matter what.

>>20565801
You're killing me with that no Ice Beam, but Water Pulse and Safeguard were stretches I'll agree on. (I mean they're all things I'm fine with losing but it'd be super cool to have ice beam)

Completely might have been a bad word to use but when people are going and retroactively changing the concepts because of their headcanon being more accessible than just going to the wiki then there is a problem that needs to be worked out. Also, you can't truthfully say going over commosus' moveset for the fifth time is important at all, let alone capable of being derailed by a single comment directed at something else entirely. You both seem to care a lot about this seeing as how angry you can get. Or maybe you're just angry people.

On whose part? I can see you not wanting to redo that shit but it's clearly a much better way to present your decisions in thread for the future.

>>20565801
>>20565900
It's supposed to be a guardian, so I think Safeguard fits.
It's also supposed to be able fend off attackers, so I think it should have a wide array of attacks.
Especially Beam attacks considering what it's based on and possibly the bomb/pulse moves to some extent.

>>20565801
Water Pulse seemed weird to me, too. Ice Beam... I kind of want to keep that since other Beam oriented Pokemon learn weird moves. Bullet Seed Remoraid for instance

>>20565909
It does have its advantages, but its by no means the only way to do it.
Its not hard to see which TMs have been left out, either.

>>20565939
The town map is not a completely accurate depiction of the routes or their direction, its just thrown together to show relative positions.
It has literally never shown the accurate sizes or proportions of routes and locations. According to the Town Map, Ilex forest is 3 tiles wide. You cant paste routes together so that Route34 and Azalea connect to Ilex without being way off the town map, for instance.
Unova and Kalos also draw lines in totally random directions (Kalos Route 12 looks nothing like the map implies, Unova Route 3 is in the opposite direction, etc.)

And bitching about maps wont change anything, as it has zero relevance other than if we make a Town map whenever someone wants to, or if we wait for 5 years until we're done making routes, so just drop it. Its pointless

>>20566075
On second thought, water pulse is just a pulsating wave shot from underwater, like if you shot a hose underwater.

Gen 3 refers to it as Ultrasonic Waves, but I still dont see Comossus as being underwater.

>>20566075
I actually agree with you mostly. However, town maps are really simple things people that don't know a lot about the region still participate. Furthermore, because of the furvent pro-Town Map sector people will look to them as things of value and information. However when they're wrong people form opinions on false pretences.

>>20566075
>It's not hard to see which TMs have been excluded
Look at the list, see a number has been skipped, go to ghe TMs page, find the number to see which TM it is, go back to the list, see another one, repeat.

It's not that hard, but it's more work for everyone wanting to give feedback on the list.

I could see it getting Drain Punch since ican can learn other Punching moves.
Thunder Wave might also work since it can learn a few other Electric moves.

I like Water Pulse, but I think too many people are against it.
Grolem and Comossus are round if you count the moss, but that might not be enough.
I think Thunderbolt should saty because all of the other robot/golem get it. The Regi's and even Golurk gets it.

>>20566768
>And its a robot so TBolt makes sense.
Looks like an animated stone statue to me. Yeah, it's based on the laputa, but it's not electronic or a machine.

It's still made of stone. If that's the reason for it getting thunderbolt then it should be able to get thunder and all the other electrical moves too. It should get charge beam because laser's are it's thing, but thunderbolt is just a weaker form of thunder.

Good catch on Thunder Wave. Adding that.

Drain punch I was told not to add, but Ludicolo gets it and interestingly, Regirock is the only regi to get it.

>>20566728
>that's not all of them though
Those ones are for the second round. IIRC everything that got less votes than the default in the first survey got eliminated.

>>20566829
I'd be fine with drain punch but i'm against thunder wave, and am seconding >>20566808

It's getting way too many TM's just because we think it'd be cool and because we want it to be our pseudo psuedo.

Look at solrock/lunatone, claydol, etc as a example.

>>20566728
That is all that are left from the last survey.
And we can still figure out which ones people like, no matter what we need a winner to be the default (which 80% of people will use).

>>20566850
>>20566876

No, there are a bunch of variants for the ones on that image that passed.

We shouldn't be getting rid of entire categories of versions just based on one example from each, and we need to know how many winners we can have that can be implemented in game.

>>20566850
I think ideally these should have opponent versions and double battle versions before they're voted on, so that we don't end up voting for one which ends up being really bulky in doubles or something. You know, foresight.

They should also be shown in use, not just sitting on their own with little to no indicator of how large they'll actually look in-game.

>>20566808
>>20566865
It's a golem and also based of a robot.
All of the golems can get Thunderbolt: Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Regigigas, Golett, Golurk
Only the Golurk line doesn't get TWave

Also, we shouldn't limit what TMs something learns if the TMs are fitting.

>>20566914

>>20566865
Its getting shit loads of moves because beams come in about eighty varieties. Its a Pokemon with a concept that lets it abuse the moves GameFreak made for us. Bipeds have naturally bloated movepools, too, versus non-bipeds. which are rarely if ever allowed punching moves due to using their limbs to walk. Like how Lotad learns almost none of the moves its evos do.

Shouldn't someone test all the UIs in battles regardless. Just seeing them doesn't help without context.

>>20567017
>Its getting shit loads of moves because beams come in about eighty varieties
That's true, but 3 people, myself included, have said now that all the electric moves are excessive.

Leave it at T-bolt.

>>20566985
That's fine. If we really need to decrease the movepool then Thunder and TWave could go I guess, but all the other golems learn TBolt (except for Golett it turns out)
Maybe have it do Grolem doesn't learn all the beam moves until it evolves (except Solarbeam of course).

>>20566902
>>20567034
I know what you are talking about, but all those other versions are slight edits and recolors, both of which can be done to any of them.
Having them in gray-scale styles like that shows the differences that matter clearly.

>>20566914
That will cause the opposite, the sloppily made opponent/double hp bars will cause people not to like certain UIs because they are sloppy. We can't go through the entire ui design process 7 times so they aren't all going to be good. If you think it's too bulky to be made into a double battle don't vote for it.

>>20567035
Im agreeing with you because Remoraid does not get either, meaning GameFreak does not consider Thunder to be a 'beam' move. Though most robots that get thunderbolt get thunder. In fact, I cant find one that doesn't. They almost all get Thunder/bolt, Charge Beam, and T Wave, and often Magnet Rise

Then don't be sloppy when you make them. I think the appearance of the battle screen is important enough to take seriously.

>If you think it's too bulky to be made into a double battle don't vote for it.
The problem is that the majority of people will not think about this when they vote. They need to be shown everything, otherwise they will not make an informed choice. No, just telling them that double battles exist doesn't count; it hasn't ever worked in the past, and it won't now.

>>20567223
I'm not a perfect spriter, I will make some better than others.
I honestly think they will all look fine though, which do you think won't work in doubles? I'll try to make a double out of it to prove they all work.

Hey /VP/ just a question when your finish ev training a pokemon dose it have to keep the power braces?

F, H and I will probably be too tall. E will need more than a superficial edit. K is likely to be too tall, as by itself it's a bit tall and I can't see any way to flatten it without major edits.

>>20567263
Height is the main issue when it comes to double battle versions. I'm not saying you couldn't make a double battle version of any of these; I'm just saying that some would end up taller than the default double boxes, which is what I would classify as bulky.

>>20566581

>>20566581
Can we go ahead and disqualify style 4 for having way too much shit going on to even look remotely similar to what it is when it might be converted to doubles/opponent style? Also, can we go ahead and retroactively shorten to fuck out of the last one's HP bar? It is like two and a half times longer than GF HP bars. We don't need to make this a bureaucracy.
