Is there a romhack with old school graphics but new mechanics and pokemon?
>>33162140
Prism.
>>33162140
No because no one can be fucked to recreate all the Kalos/Alola models as sprites.
>>33162171
Why not just rip smogon sprites? It's not like they can claim ownership when they're infringing on copyright in the first place.
Theta Emerald Ex is Emerald with everything up to gen 6 in it. Really high quality too. Prism is also good, longer game with less content packed into it

WHY

There's a Moon Emerald rom hack that has seventh gen pokemon
>>33162171
1/2
>>33162171
>>33162688
2/2
The quality is really mixed throughout both of these but they were collabs and people were supposed to redo the worst ones (the ones with yellow or red backgrounds) and touch up the green ones. The project fell apart before they did though.

Polished crystal
>>33162258
>max level 250
What the fuck?
>>33162258
>>33162801
I played it and you don't need to level up THAT much, useless feature if you ask me
>>33162688
most of these look fucking fantastic
>>33162710
these are kind of weak, mostly because they look too much like the official artwork of gen 7 just made into a sprite, when they should've actually made them more silly looking to match the gen 2 art style, or at least give them better poses like lurantis and bewear are
>>33162140
Depends on how old school you mean. Pokemon Rejuvenation, which I've been thinking about playing myself, has all 802 mons and updated mechanics, etc. It uses the DS/Gen 4 engine.

Shofu's doing a run of it, which was how I found out about it. Jump to 46 mins in to see that you have access to all 21 starters for your choice (including chance of HA) and maybe a non-traditional starter as a rarity.
>>33162140
Pokemon Red++
I can't believe no one else has mentioned it
>>33162261
This looks promising

>46 minutes too get starter
Bad game design. In SM it takes about 10 minutes which is already a long time.
>>33164798
It's a longass game, 46 minutes isn't much considering there are 18 gyms and all Pokemon are available at some point. I think it's supposed to be 45 hours min. or something to finish the main story.
>>33164831
But in hgss there are 16 gyms and you get your starter in the first 5 minutes. No matter how many gyms, 46 minutes to get a starter is bad game design.
>>33164844
HGSS is relegated to Gen 1 and Gen 2 mons excluding evolutions, and covers far, far fewer Legendaries. Anyway, I had already watched what transpired in the first 46 minutes, and there are puzzles and such to occupy the player's time. Besides, don't forget this is a hack -- you can speed through anything you'd like to trim time down to nothing, but it's better for initial runs to pay attention the first time.
>>33164844
46 minutes is nothing compared to 45 hours tho. plus it only takes like 5 or 6 hours to beat HGSS. less than 10 hours of main story for an RPG is bad game design
>>33164881
>5 or 6 hours to beat HGSS
Dafaq? Are you high? The average time beating the main story in hgss is 40 hours(survey)
>>33164905
yeah maybe if you battle every trainer, wander around every optional area, get every gym leader's number, etc. just getting through the main story is definitely under 10 hours if you don't get distracted by other things
>>33164942
But that still doesn't prove that 46 minutes to get a starter isn't bad game design. People want to get right into battling, not do stupid puzzles. Pokémon isn't a puzzle game.
>>33164962
Tell that to all the people who complained about no Victory Road in SM
>>33164962
It's that kind of talk that plops Mewtwo in a cave in XY with nothing else to do there. If the game is just grind, catch, grind it becomes stale. I didn't even mind the cutscenes in Sun/Moon, I feel like the banter on this board about it is so exaggerated -- if anything, they should've had a skip option for re-runs of the game but the first time isn't a big deal unless you really can't be asked to focus.
>>33165030
With he exp share you don't even need to grind
>>33165087

>>33164995
Vast Poni Canyon was a fine victory road. It's just a semantic difference.
>>33164831
It doesn't matter how long the game is, I don't want to sit through 46 minutes of cutscenes before I get to my first battle, and if 46 minutes of cutscenes before the first battle is the norm I can't imagine the rest of the game is any good. "45 hours min." is probably filled with tons of padding if the game starts off that way.
>>33165591
It's not all cutscenes -- you actually maneuver the character through the game at several points, you just don't have a Pokemon yet because it's not a blind journey, it's setup for a quest.

It's shit
>>33162244
Fewer pokemon basically
>>33165705
Everything is shit so that's not much of a statement.
Can Prism be played on 3DS CFW or was that a lie?
>>33165757
Yes I have the Prism CIA on my 3DS.
>>33165763
Thanks, I'll go find the cia now.
