Fucking with the sprites and code for a rom is not /x/ related. Sorry.

... In areas where you fight bug pokemon, YOU FIGHT FISH POKEMON... and where you're supposed to fight fire pokemon.... YOU FIGHT FISH POKEMON.

Actually, just make it so everything you fight are fish pokemon.

Every NPC is Gary Oak.

>>4527612
that, sir, is genius

Red is dead and no one talks to him. He sees ghost pokemon every now and then.

>>4527610
>HURRDURRNUR

Lavender Town music ALL THE TIME

>>4527628
GARY MOTHERFUCKING OAK

>>4527610
it is /x/ in process. STFU no one likes your lonely ass

in the beginning of the game when Ash is talking to his mom, make up a story about his dad being dead, throughout the process of the game have a mysterious man with darkness covering his face approach him and then his face warps into a creepy dead face, big wide bloodshot eyes with dark bags under it, and a wide smile across his face, then Ash wakes up and its just a dream. But in the end of the game shows that Ash died with his father and he is just a lonely soul wandering the earth fulfilling his last dream/wish, thats why he can see dead ghosts like this guy stated
>>4527645

>>4527767
this

Oh we're still doing this? Noice.

>>4527767
>>4527645
these sounds really good

More ideas

Should this be actually playable, or just a mindfuck to wander around in?

>>4527645
This is a great idea.

>>4527599
Perhaps at points, he has flashbacks, to a pre-death version of his life

>>4527767
How bout every so often you'll run into a ghost sprite pokemon (liek from the tower) thats like stupidily high level for the area. You can't run from it. But he'll only kill all your Pokemon party save for the last, which he'll leave at 1 hp, which triggers him to force a "flashback" sequence (jsut have random pictures flash on the screen for a bit) With each encounter the flash back comes clearer and clearer until you finnaly realize NO ASH YOU ARE THE GHOSTS. And then Ash was a Ghost Pokemon.

>>4528016
Sounds good but dont let Ash become a ghost pokemon. Maybe let his features fade away, or a missing limb one by one for something

>>4528016
to expand on this, it won't let you use your starter pokemon until everyone else is gone, and when any pokemon except for it faints, it dies, period. then in the end, after the starter is the only pokemon in there possesion for a long period of time, it dies, slowly, brutally (how we accomplish this effect, I'm not sure)

Another idea, the ghosts, attack right after gym leader battles, or ARE the gym leaders

>>4527958
I'd say do a little of both. Make it so you're gonna want to play it enough to get mind fucked

>>4528095
that would makes it REALLY hard on the gameplay but sounds decent, idk its your choice

>>4528095
The sprite can slowly deteriorate throughout the battle. And if you somehow beat it, bring back the thing from Yellow Version where you could click on your Pikachu and it'd show you a picture. And every once in a while the sprite would change, and the Pokemon would be in a worse shape than the last time. It'd be quite a bit of work for all the sprites, but it'd be a damn good effect.

Quick question, is this red or fire red?
I remember reading that it was decided to be based from fire red, due to a lack of helpful red version sprite editiors or something

>>4528137
oh hell yea!

>>4528137
damn thats a good idea

fake errors
make a script that reads the person's personal info and shit like that

>>4528161
I have all the editors I can find for editing Red. If there IS an actual pokemon sprite editor, I think I could make something decent.

If not, then I'll probably switch to Fire Red, since there are a lot more ways to edit with that.

How about these adorable pokemon?

>>4528234
Beautiful, but my childhood has just been pre-raped in anticipation for this

Slenderman is a pokemon you find at random. He is level 100 and you can't kill him because you give him made-up moves like ?:9:?:8:?:8/!20 and other gibberish.

>>4528262
Pre-rape preparation! I never thought of it. Thanks for the defense mechanism, anon.

>>4527645
Have it begin normally with Red in his house. When he goes down stairs, and you go up to your mom, She doesn't say anything, or sometimes will give a *sigh*.

Prof. Oak is out in the field studying, he left a note for a new trainer that he left his Pokemon on the table, so you go pick out your starter without ever talking to him directly.

When your exploring the world, sometimes people will claim "Did it just get colder?" or talk to themselves, but most of the time NPC will not say anything.

Pokemon Center's Nurse Joy is always at the other end of the desk and won't respond to you, you walk up to the machine to heal your Pokemon. Same with Pokemarts, cash register attendant doesn't acknowledge you, walk up to cash register to purchase your own stuff. A neat idea is after you use the machine and walk away a ! will pop over the Pokemart Assistant/Nurse Joys head and she'll run to the machine, as if wondering why it just made a noise or something.

Prob need a way to get around having to interact with the gym leaders and the battling npcs though... Maybe they can be attacking Red's spirit or something?

On a related note, I'm making a post-apocalyptic pokemon game in engine001. It's already coming along smoothly.

>>4528268

A slenderman pokemon that works like the legendary dogs did in g/s would be awesome. If you want you could use random memory addresses for his attacks. Doing that could make the game crash (among other things) when you find him, but I think that would be awesome.

A Psycho Mantis inspired boss fight, with different text depending on which starter you chose

>>4528323
I was actually trolling.

Fuck, I suck at trolling.

Alright, this is what you do: make the first couple battles impossible to win.
When you lose, you restart at last save point like normal. However, every time you "pass out," the game gets gradually creepier, and the battles you've already lost get easier.
And I don't mean trees with mean faces or nighttime or ghosts, that stuff is boring and expected.
Put shit that doesn't make sense, but just unnerves the fuck out of you, I.E a person that appears randomly at different places and you can't interact with them, and nobody else sees them. If you try to talk with them, a morbid picture of them fills the screen and you can't do anything unless you restart.
Every time you reload, the dialogue gets stranger and spelling gets worse. Eventually everything gets fucked and you learn in the end that you're in hell.

really, the things that made the original games so damn creepy were unexplainable. don't try so hard to build a 'story'- set the game up as it would normally be set up.

... then just sort of ... fuck everything up. leave various glitches and errors to the imagination of the player.

>>4528360
It could be the first time you fight your rival, he just ANNIHILATES your ass, and after he wins he laughs his ass off as you fade away.

GARY MUTHERFUCKING OAK

Work the dead Raticate creepypasta into it, and the "come follow me..." creepypasta.
http://pastebin.com/f71e6728f For those of you who haven't read the latter. (Just a heads-up, it's a bit lengthy)

>>4528460
And maybe stick the "come follow me" thing itself in as a random event.

>>4528436
exactly what I was trying to say

bump for ideas

After you defeat the Marowak and the Rockets in Pokemon tower you go back to Mr Fuji's house and he says something like finally Cubone's mother's spirit has been laid to rest... But I can't help feeling there's something not right. Something is missing, no it can't be. Nevermind. This should hint for you to go and catch Missingno. Once you have done this, return to lavender. When you return, everyone is gone, even the channelers in pokemon tower. When you go up pokemon tower and reach the area Marowak once was. Someone says "I thought I told you to turn back". A battle begins. You reveal the ghost and it's a Kangaskhan lvl 100. If you defeat it and go to the top floor you find Mr Fuji lying on the ground dying (like the guy who was lying down in viridian) he says I knew... something wasn't right... He disappears and in his place is an item called Cubone's Skull. If you take this to the fossil people in Cinnabar it will be ressurected as a Kangaskhan.

>>4528729

on the return to lavender use the reversed theme for effect

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWfljFxwsPg&feature=related

Shit, that come follow me is nuckin' futs!

>>4528460
maybe not exactly the same as "come follow me" but have something like, in every city, you know how it has that little glitch/bit of lag before it says the name of the city? I think you should take that lag and make a sprite of Red's mother, but in the same color scheme as the ghost pokemon, running from about a quarter of the way through the screen to the outside, with a dialog box that says "follow me, *Name*. And if you talk to someone who's kinda chillin' in the area, they'll be like, "whoa, did you hear that? it sounded like someone talking, but when i turned around all i saw was a puff of smoke." and at the end, you finally go back to your hometown (btw, you shouldn't be allowed back into your hometown, something like the police stop you, kinda like the guy laying in viridian.) and you find out that your mother was brutally slaughtered in your house, and your rival was the prime suspect, and it happens right after you see him in lavender. (see "raticate" creepypasta.) And if you go upstairs, you find a note on your tv saying something along the lines of "you killed someone close to me, so i killed someone close to you.

Make it so no one ever directly acknowledges your rival, eventually reveal he is dead/figment of imagination, etc.

>>4528998
in addition to this, show gore in the house, and make the house appear to be burnt, or destroy partially

>>4529161
yesyes. and possibly have some police still investigating.

Yeah, I like the idea where you are dead and you don't really officialy find out that you died until later in the game.

OR you can be alive for part of the came then like die midway in the game and weird shit happens. Say like you die in Mt. Moon or something via boulder. idk.

it'b be cool to have some of my favorite digimon's in it.

>>4529168
and we need to have other effects while in the house, slow down, screen flickers...
my god, the note should be written in Zalgo!

Skitties.

Everywhere.

>>4529056
I think this is much better than having yourself end up dead. People throughout the game already sort of acknowledge the rival indirectly ("did you see that guy over there?")

>>4529182
There should be some things wrong in your room. Like, if you click on the PC, you click on like YOUR PC, and it does something really weird. And like, see the kitchen burnt and stuff. And there's somehow a basement now, and you go down there and there's blood and shit all over the place. It'd make me shit brix if I didn't know what was in it.

>>4529190
that made me laugh. A lot.

>>4529218
Land mines. Everywhere!

>>4529179
>it'b be cool to have some of my favorite digimon's in it.

make certain spaces around the edge of Viridian Forest that you can interact with that'll take you to some sort of enclosed glitch area where the evolving music is playing off-key on a loop the entire time

The player is actually a ghost caught in a loop, and has been haunting Kanto for the last 10 years.

He is reliving the best times of his life, trying to experience it again as it was. However, since he's a ghost people are scared of him and refuse to battle him/run away, etc

At the end it's revealed the Pokemon League made an attempt to orchestrate your pokemon journey as you took it 10 years ago, but everything falls apart at the end when Green refuses to show up to the Champion Battle, and instead you find Sabrina, who tries to exorcise you by killing you with her super strong pokemon

Once you win the battle, she laments on how your haunting has has driven the entire country crazy, caused your mother to spiral into depression, and caused Green to hate the very thought of you.

Then she dies and the game resets itself.

Throw a put tall grass in the kitchen, the only pokemon that resides there are all the female trainer sprites

>>4529322
>female
>kitchen
What you did there. I see it.

>>4529322

every woman in the game asks you if they can make you a sandwich

random dead pokemons lying in the road.

oh oh oh!

Insert NPC dialog about people eating pokemon for food. And put in buildings that are say Tauros/Miltank Butcher's Shop, or Stantler brand Archery, Filleted Magikarp, etc

LISTEN, AS A DARK WIZARD, I KNOW HOW TO MAKE SOMETHING CREEPY.

IT MUST BE AMBIGUOUS.

YOU NEED TO MAKE THE GAME VAGUE IN ALL WAYS, DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS A POKEMON ROM GAME IN ANY WAY, GIVE CREDIT TO NO ONE FOR CREATING THIS ROM, PUT IT IN BROKEN ENGLISH, A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE, OR A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE WITH BITS OF VULGAR OR CREEPY AND ODD ENGLISHT THROWN IN THE DIALOGUE, DRASTICALLY ALTER CONTENT CREATING A TOTALLY DIFFERENT FEELING OF POKEMON AND TRY TO AVOID THINGS LIKE BATTLES OR ANYTHING THAT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE A GAME AS OPPOSED TO A SIMULATION, FOR A SOUNDTRACK, USE WHITE NOISE, SUDDEN LOUD SOUNDS, ODD BROKEN SCARY CHIPTUNES TRACKS AND ANYTHING ELSE TO CREATE A PERFECT AMIBANCE OF CONFUSION AND FEAR. DO NOT ADVERTISE THE GAME IN A CONVENTIONAL WAY, PUT THE DOWNLOAD ON AN OBSCURE, INDEPENDENT, VAGUE WEBSITE, AND SPREAD KNOWLEDGE OF IT THROUGH WORD OF MOUTH AS A CREEPY THING YOU FOUND, AND NOT A GAME. THIS WILL TRULY FREAK PEOPLE OUT. ALSO MAKE IT RELATE TO THAT SUPPOSED MUSIC IN LAVENDAR TOWN IN THE OLD ASS VERSIONS OF RED THAT MADE 12 YEAR OLDS KILL THEMSELVES.

Not bad...

Except for the broken english part.

>>4529375
I like you, anon.

>>4529375

If possible, make all the pokemon look horrifying. Recognizable, but not cute cuddly, rather vicious and creepy and shit.

You would think that someone would already have thought of making a rom hack with that come follow me shit in

>>4529375
approval. though total white noise might dissuade most people from really giving the 'game' a chance. throw in some creepy, off-key 8bit shit and you're golden.

>>4529528
Not to go off-topic or anything here, but I don't think he can be counted as anon if he signed his post.

>>4528312
I like.
Instead of haing do do things your self in the marts and centers, how about having a machine in both, with a sign next to it that says that its a self-serve healer/register.

As for how to battle, simple; Reds dead, but his pokemon arn't. Other trainers would just think that a wild pokemon had suddernly appeared so they battle it.

Motherfucking. Idiots.

>>4529597

This.

>>4529597
>>4529656
>haters_gonna_hate.jpeg

>>4529672

Elaborate more on the creepy nature of certain Pokemon.

Hypo and his kidnapping, Haunter's ability to trans-substantiate and the fact he will kill you for existing. The fact that Golbat is a bloodsucker with a 10 foot wingspan. Remember, they are called Monsters for a reason.

Have some shit like the Old Chateau from DPP.
and yeah, work in the Raticate and Follow Me, and Cubone plotlines

A lot of the ideas posted here are quite difficult to actually create for Pokemon Red.

Fire Red would be easier.

>>4529685
Also, the fact Parasect is a zombie.

DARK WIZARD HERE, MY IDEAS ARE GOLDEN, I WILL GUIDE YOU TO POKEMON ROM FAME.

>>4529766
You. You amuse us.

>>4529282
think about it.
DIGIMONS i Pokemon.
mass chaos.

Red is dead. Everyone he talks to just says something to themself, they don't really talk to Red. In Gym Battles, edit the text so the leaders give a clue to him being a ghost, and battle him anyway.

As the game progresses, make the areas look more and more glitchy and darker, as if Red is fading off from our world.

>>4529875
In addition to making things darker and more glitchy, or instead of making it that way, maybe just delete a random NPC.

Then as the game progresses, delete more NPCS in each town until near the end almost no one is left. and Red wonders the dark glitchy towns almost alone.

Glad this is still on. Hadn't heard from anyone.

bamp

Everythings normal, and when ever you talk to someone after you've beaten them they just go on and on about how good you are.

When ever you go to a pokecenter to heal your problems, Nurse Joy tells you "it may take some time, so why don't you go and have a lay down" the screen fades to black and you hear the familiar healing sound but you also see a flash or two, for the briefest moments of your room, your there in a wheelchair surronded by pokemon things (Posters, dolls etc.). This also happens when you go back to your house and your mother tells you to have a nap.

Then after you've finished the game and beatern your Rival at the the league, the game fades to black. Suddernly you see what you sore when ever you sleep. Your rival walks in to the room and says "Mom, Dad, <Players Name> is yelling again!" Your Mom and Oak walk in and say something like "<Rivals Name> be kind to your brother, you know he can't help it" to which the rival responds "He's and idiot, I hate him" and walks out.
End game.

>>4530119
Not bad, but not creepy enough.

>>4530119
Fuck that. that isnt creepy at all

>>4530119
fucking dumb. I'd just lol all over the place if that happened to me in-game. That'd be the funniest shit ever. I'd never stop laughing.
>implying i'd laugh

>>4530142
>>4530143

Ok then, after that, it once again fades to black. You then see a outside area thats kinda shaped like your room, ie: trees for walls, patchs of grass and the odd chair/table. Your replace by a Slowpoke. What ever pokemon your rival chose then comes in and the scene repeats its self, with your parents (Mom and Oak) replaced with Pokemon as well.

sure is 13 year olds suggesting "AND THEN A SKELETON POPS OUT" shit and drowning out all the veteran /x/enophiles suggesting subtle creepiness.

>>4530297

>>4530314

>>4530979
OOoooOOOoOoooOOOo

>>4531000
I want there to be some kind of story behind the creepiness. Plan is to have a random NPC missing, or a sprite out of place, or the music a different pitch, stuff like that.

I do want it to add up in the end though, give some kind of explanation for it all.

>>4531014
So add up slowly, but eventually getting to eversion creepy? or some shit like that?

>>4531000

Yeah, I hear you. That would be lame.

What if... what if you were a skeleton the whole time, and a dead guy popped out? Pretty good idea, right? I'd be terrified!

>>4531028
Yeah, like eversion. As the game progresses more and more things feel out of place.

Need a reason behind it all. Doesn't have to be a straight out explanation, but something.

ONE DAY ASH WAS WALING DOWN A ROAD LOOKING FOR MEW. HE HEARD YOU CAN CATCH MEW BY SURFING AROUND SS ANNE. WHEN HE GOT TO THE SS ANNE HE SAW A TRUCK AND WENT UP TO IT. WHEN HE LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK A SKELETON POPPED OUT!!!

>>4527599
are you a mewtwo

>>4531044
Subtle change, subtle clues to what the fuck is going on.

bumping a thread with potential

>>4531194
I was thinking it'd be cool if it were more of an easter egg, and unless you hunt down a specific signpost in like a cave or victory road or something with a wall of text, you just don't get an explanation.

As for the explanation itself, I like the idea of it being a natural (or unnatural, take your pick) disaster, and a dying survivor writes out what happened on the signpost. Meanwhile this whole time you've just been CATCHAN, TRADAN, CONTESTAN etc like nothings wrong when each town gets progressively darker and with fewer people.

how bout switch some npcs with pokemon. when you fight an npc he/shes like "no! stop hurting me! im human! can't you tell? why are you staring at me like that! say something! owww!"

>>4531258
Oh and the music goes down one-half pitch each town, so you don't notice right away. NPC's and trainers say weird shit when you talk/they battle you. Wild pokemon sprites have a 1 in 5 chance of glitching to being all black except their eyes or something.

>>4531258
>>4531298
Some kind of 'natural' disaster sounds very nice. Hm.

how about instead of pokemon, there are digimon?

bamp

OP, after this rom is made circulate it as a normal red rom

>>4531407
Sure thing.

inb4 OP never delivers

>>4531399
How about you choke on my cock

>>4531421
FUCK YEAR

When might we be able to see a finished product, or perhaps a demo of the progress?

Just read "Come follow me"; Is the end really the end? I haven't been subtly tricked into freaking out by playing Pokemon have I? Nothing remotely like the story happens, does it?

>>4531288
None of this. this would cause people to play the rest of the creepy game because they find it amusing, or turn it off because obvious troll is obvious.

>>4531481
Yes you have, and as it was to be a very, very, VERY rare event, nobody knows.

>>4531431
butthurt

Some of the ideas are pretty awesome! Btw is op still here?

>>4529375
That'd be awesome too!

Simple idea, never put a creepy music when the situation gets creepy... Put a weird one when the situation is normal, and some random things when it should get creepy, or even joyfull music.

>>4531514

op was never here

this is just manchildren jabbering

>Put a weird one when the situation is normal, and some random things when it should get creepy, or even joyfull music.
This. Should the game reach some flat-out nightmare fuel at some point, throw in the Pokemon Center music to confuse as well as frighten them.

>>4531588
oh shit its fire red? It would be sooo much creepier if it was regular red

bamp

After this is done and I go to my friends, I will have this game on a flash drive. When he is in the bathroom or something I will copy it, and a folder say open this, to his desktop.IM GONNA FUCK HIS SHIT UP. Also OP, go ahead and put in some motherfuckin creepy messages and shit

FUCKING POKEZOMBIES!!!!!!!!!!

More forests. A haunted mansion in one of them. Read the shit about Lavender Town theme suicides and about the shit that was supposedly in the Pokemon Tower and incorporate that stuff.

DAMMIT MORE POSTS IN THIS THREAD NAO!

>>4531514
>>4531524
>Put a weird one when the situation is normal, and some random things when it should get creepy, or even joyfull music.

That'd be awesome, Like... First u get no sound, not even ur footsteps, nothing, and then a very loud Pokemon center music, a bit altered (scratching noise? volume changing during the music by itself?)

Also, is it possible to make a screen effect like the DS is rebooting? Getting black for less than a second, or something like that? It'd be scary.

This game starts to look like "Room 1408".

How about instead of pokemon fainting, they die...

later on when you reach lavender town, you are able to recapture them as ghosts.

>>4528215
I dunno if anyone has said this yet, but perhaps when you fight Gary in lavender town, he asks you if you've ever had to catch your ghost pokemon.
Then while you battle him his raticate is a ghost type.

Going to bed, good luck OP. Will be back on the wordpress page tomorrow for an update. I LOVE YOU /x/

>>4531847
No, they atack you in random places with shadow tag(you cant scape) until the ghosty kill one of you pkmn, eventually you get in the possiblity of get all you pkmn stalking you even in buildings.

Sounds cool too.

Also, what creeped me out/always caught my attention when I was kid was how distorted the R/B sprites were. Alot of the features were exaggerated on the sprites. If the sprites were remade they should probably be kinda like that. Zubat/Golbat with huge mouths and fangs, Jigglypuff with huge ass eyes, Blastoise with huge cannons and shell with a small head maybe...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY3bd16XVZQ&feature=related FUCKING THIS

>>4532022
Nice and glitchy, but nearly unplayable. I don't think anyone would continue to the play the game after that.

Also, OP here, Am aware of the Fire Red version, but I am working on just a Red hack, since Red would be much more creepier, although it is harder to hack.

Going with a progression of creepiness, missing NPCs, weird text when talking with people, and glitchy graphics with time.

Anyone have random creepy phrases you can post here for the random NPCs in the game? Post them.

>>4533821
Come play with me.

Make a CWCville game where you have to battle Mayor Chris-chan and his army of electric hedgehogs for the souls of the people of CWCville.
Chis-Chan drinks navy.
It's super effective!

>>4533821
OP, don't you wanna create a small forum then everyone could post some ideas, without being 404'd if you not here?

>Going with a progression of creepiness, missing NPCs, weird text when talking with people, and glitchy graphics with time.
im100%okaywiththis.jpg.png.exe.zip.png.dll

Good luck for the Red version, I saw that u need to edit everything with a hexmodifier, as there are no tools for the first gen.

I don't know shit about hexediting or anything, but can't you just put what's inside RED into firered? Like import skins and all? Are the two versions totally differents? inb4 retard, i stopped playing pokemon after the yellow, I think.

>>4533952
The brain is more active during sleep then while watching TV

Why you steal my shit?

>>4533988
There are some tools for red. There are a few things that I can't do, but for this hack, I can do everything I NEED to do.

Also, a small forum for ideas and updates sounds nice. I'll make one and post link soon.

>>4534027
Unless you have private tool you cant edit scripts for pokemon red.. unless you use a hexeditor..

>>4534071
Yeah, that's what I read about it this morning in some forums. But if OP says he can... I guess he can. Anyway he could get help on the forum he'll create.

>>4534027
Waiting for your link.

>>4534089
If he oculd he'd do something original not steal my idea....... yeah..

>>4534100

There is no beta..anymore, but I've been posting here on /x/ the last 4 or so days about it =/

It started as a pokemon red hack(originial red), but its now a pokemon fire red hack because of the lack of tools and most of the tools not working.

>>4534152
Sorry, didn't lurked /x/ for a while, and never posted with my trip on here. Can't you just help OP or anything? It'd go quicker.

I'd love to work with him, but he's doing original red, im doing the remake, fire red..

>>4534171
Ah, I'm sorry if I took your idea or anything. It wasn't an intentional thing.

I'm doing Red and you're doing Fire Red, so it surely won't be exactly the same. We can always make creepy connections between the two games, or make one of the two hacks a sequel or prequel. It doesn't need to make much sense to be creepy.

Or not do any of that at all and just work on is separately. Anything is fine

<- didn't read the whole tread.but put creepy pictures which flash on screen when one's pokemon is poisend while you walk on the over world

I remember seeing a similar book to this, but not the same one.

It was basically about how these crazy space people took over earth, genetically engineered most of them, then left. The rest of the book shows how these different types of humans evolved over time.

Near the end the only real thing left of humans are machines and some people who left the earth a long time ago.

Anyone know this one? :(

>>4534293
wrong thread fail

You are alive the whole time. The game is perfectly normal up until around the third gym where shit starts to diverge form the original game. Erike isn't in her gym, nor any of the trainers, just the peeping Tom from outside, you battle him, and his Pokemon have slightly (not hugely) creepier sprites and the music is slightly off tone. From then on, occasionally have things slightly off in the game, not neccesarily major like the Erika gym, but maybe hints that some shit is going down. I also suggest a sprawling, maze that goes in circles place with no/very faint music, where you can encounter some of these offsprite pokemon, but they don't learn any attacks.

Work on this, this is the ramblings of a madman who has been up for 32 hours.

>>4534308
Post it here
http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

Idea: You get really pissed at Gary Motherfucking Oak.

When you battle him (ideally not the first battle; perhaps when he interrupts you when you try to get to Victory Road early on in the game) you first knock out all his Pokemon. He says the normal defeat lines, but instead of the battle ending, a HP meter appears for him and you continue to use your Pokemon to fight him. He doesn't have any attacks, he just says "Stop!" or "No!" or "What are you doing?!" or something. You continue until he's knocked out, and you just leave him to die on Victory Road. It takes a little while for the murder to catch up to you, but eventually some NPC trainers start to catch on/recognize you. The same happens to them; when the battle ends you "kill" them.

Idk how this would be "resolved" when you fight the Elite Four and become champion; maybe when you catch Mewtwo he's evil and allies with you, making you unstoppable. Instead of Gary as the champion, maybe it's your mother. You become "champion" by killing her.

Missingno will have a new name, lv. 99, and when you battle it images of dead people flash for a split second and the game shuts off

Archive this shit. This is gold. I sure do hope this is not a trolling thread.

do tons of little things and spread it out, leave things largely the same.

An npc that runs up to you and says [...] and then runs away, never seen again.
Random missingno-like tile swaps in random places making areas seem glitchy, but the objects act as normal.
Music that cuts out randomly, and stays silent for a while, or is replaced with static and an occasional high pitched noise.
Some NPCs text changed to random depressing phrases, just pick a random phrase from a book nearby. Example: "His eyes- or perhaps it was only his lenses- were murky..."

>>4534583
Exactly what I'm going for. However, I do want a slgith story to it. Nothing blatantly obvious, but hinting towards some mysterious 'thing'. Thanks for the link.

BUMP

Everyone you talk to says THE GAME

>>4534688
And at the end Oak bel airs everyone

In terms of little weird things that slowly deplete the player's sanity, put some NPCs in places where they cannot (and never will be able to) reach.

>>4534702
Good idea, thank you. You can post more ideas, if you want, here: http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

How bout making mewtwo a trainer that uses npc's as pokemon?

>>4534707
Would be interesting, but not creepy, and not good enough for someone to want to play through the entire game.

'white hand' creepypasta.
DOO EEET.

>>4534743
>White hand

:(

super mega hyper giga ultimate over 9000 death bump

>>4534783
Do you have any ideas?

moar

OP here. What I have planned so far:

Creepy progression through missing NPCs, out of place things, random unreachable sprite, NPCs saying weird creepy things. Will become more noticable as the game progresses.

Lavender Town is end game.

Missingno might work into the story somehow. I do want there to be at least an obscure reason for what's going on.

Any more ideas?

http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

Moar like Nanashi no Game

>>4534935
fund it

/x/ pokemon hack? do want

'Come follow me' has a shit ending, but it would be good to get something similar into the game.

I have no idea how to make a good story, but the end of the game has to involve Lavender Town and at least one main character dying. Maybe Blue.

Poke'rus is an actual disease much like the black death, at the beggining of the game your mum is crying, and ignores you completely, professor oak died and your rival wants to justify his death by becoming the champ, in most villages the NPC's are all in bed and will say stuff like " I see death coming for me" and "I won't make it much longer", in lavender town there will be coffins or random NPC's lying down everywhere throughout the tower, the finale of the game after you beat your rival in the league, you see the ghost of oak, as you smile and die, riddled with poke'rus.

>>4535653
Using Pokerus to explain things, that's a pretty interesting idea. Thank you.

You should post your ideas on the forum, I'm sure the others would like to see it too. Someone else mentioned having it end in Lavender town, so it works.

>>4534583

>tv tropes

fuck, I was hoping to get things done today...

Slendermon pokemon

>>4535965
No.

Pokemon red? ok put all pokemon is that game!

>>4536050
You mean 'in'? I've read that it's pretty much impossible to fit all Pokemon on any single game. I wouldn't want it for this hack anyway. Going to be partial nostalgia.

>>4536121
This. Any Pokemon past the original 150-151 would just be unnecessary, and ruin it.
This game is supposed to rape the childhoods of those old enough to wonder and think about all the creepy little details in-depth, not the new-gen kiddies who'll just pass by everything going "That doesn't even make any sense, that's just dumb."

Pokemon don't "faint", they die; and as the game progresses further, not only are there missing NPCs, there are also less Pokemon. Less random encounters, trainers have smaller teams etc...
make it so that it seems like the whole world is dieing, so Ash will be Pokemon Master in a dead world, with no one alive except for him and his few remaining Pokemon (which start to wither and die as well)

>>4536240
I'm 12 and you're pretentious.

When you fight peoples, they cry and say "You killed him, you monster!".

dont ruin pokemons!!!!!

>>4536244
Pokemon actually dying, I don't think I can do that, but the rest of your post is pretty much already planned. Thanks for the input.

>>4536300
Also, OP here. Going to be gone for a while, so thread might die. You can keep talking about it, posting ideas and things, and helping me over at:

Will probably also create a new thread if this one dies.

Thanks for the help everyone.

>>4536286
>>4536286
Lol not bad

Make is so at the end you realize that Red isn't the one that's dead, but EVERYONE ELSE is dead, and Red was the only one alive the entire time.

I'm working on a WhiteHand sprite, if you'd be willing to work that into the game.

>>4536741
Can't edit actual Pokemon sprites at the moment, only Sprites that appear outside of battles.

>>4536765
Awww cuntwaffles.

>>4536765
Just use a graphics decompressor and insert your own

>>4536783
Not sure how it would work for Pokemon Red, but I'll look into it. Thank you.

>>4536778
Make your sprite anyway and post it at http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

And if I'm able to, I will certainly work it in.

missingno is final boss

17 hz infrasound playing in the background the entire time.

change the music slightly in a way that allows you to incorporate the 3 high notes from lavender town in every song throughout the game

as for pokemon actually dieing, have it so that after you're pokemon faints and the use next pokemon thing comes up with a list of your pokemon, the space where the dead pokemon should be is now blank.

also subtle shit. i dont think this should be a new game itself really with story lines etc, just outright weird shit.

These missingno sprites are all cool. Especially the ghostly looking one.
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/b/b7/Missingno.png

Glitch city should be what comes up whenever you enter a city for the first time and then when you leave and come back its like its supposed to be.

Here's what I have so far. I'm yet to make some of the necessary changes, such as the shriveled look, and it needs moar tendons, but I'll see if I can't get some of those right later on. Any spritefags here, feel free to make changes if you don't find it up to par. Now; before I take it any further, anyone have any suggestions on how to make it better from here?

>>4537446
Don't know much about sprites, but it looks quite nice

>>4537492
Thank you.

>>4537446
What the shit is that supposed to be?

>>4537513
A great negroid appendage.

>>4537513
Part of a hand. Have a creepypasta.
http://www.99chan.org/x/res/6793.html
I couldn't get a bony colour with just the Pokemon Red palette, so that part looks a little fucked up. The wrist is torn off, and part of the palm is torn open. Of course, once again, palette limitations make those things a little hard to convey.

>>4537543
What's creepy is that when I click it, it doesn't get bigger, the saturation just changes.
OMGWTFSHITBRIX

>>4537650
There are also size limitations, you know.

>>4537446
Keep working on it, looks nice.

how about when u beat the game u find out ur were really on the island from lost the whole time

>>4537743
I'm workin' on it~

>>4537817
How about no.

okay /x/ bear with me on this.

at the end of the game when oak congratulates you for beating the pokemon league, he reveals his true plan.
he has been using you all along to steal your pokedex research for himself ! he then attempts to silence you by attacking you with all the pokemon you have caught so far(that were sent to his lab), but they have all been horribly mutated by the professors mad experiments ! after a ridicuous battle, you defeat oak,who escapes swearing revenge.
and, in gold and silver, he returns as a cyborg oak still trying to steal the hard work of yong pokemon trainers for his own nafarious ends !

>>4537919
lul why the fuck would he be a cyborg? was he injured in the pokebattle?

>>4537919
That's hilarious.

Is there a way to put in more townspeople? Like make them crowd around a lake, or turn to look at you when you walk by.

woahwoahwoah how does he have no username or number?

>>4537941
Dunno, I'll find out.

>>4537947
Wat.

>>4537947

huh; screencap

>>4537927

of course he was ! when you defeat his army of mutated pokemon, oak fights you himself out of desperation !


this is actually a story my bro came up with. our yougest brother has just discovered pokemon and is now playing the older games. he told the kid this is how the game ends, and came up with this awesome alternate ending. this is just what i remember, but he has a huge detailed story worked out just to mess with the poor kid

bump

pokemon doesn't real

>>4529375
instead of putting it on a vague sight advertise it as a regular pokemon red game

>>4538112
Agree with this. Maybe say it has something special, just so people actually download it. I'm not sure...

OP doesn't real

inb4 we're all disappointed and bitter

>>4538585
Thanks a bunch.

>>4538510
fuckin' creepy

>>4538681
And just think... if things work out right, that's gonna be a Pokemon!

You could make the whole land post-apocalyptic, hardly any NPC's and the ones that are around are mentally unstable.

>>4538710
Bri/x/ will be shat.

>>4538770
That's what I have planned for near end game. Thank you for the input though.

You can post more ideas, or just see what other people are thinking, here: http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

Has anyone ever seen that comic strip about garfield making his own reality? Well you could work that into the game, and the further red travels the more desolate the landscape becomes, and less NPC's are around. His reality could slowly break down around him as you play the game.

>>4538897
Someone post it please?
Seen it posted a few times already, I always forget to save it.

>>4538897
This is the plan.

There is still no concrete REASON why this is happening though. Possibilities we have come up with at the forum so far:

Pokerus reverse engineered by Team Rocket and now it's messing up the world.

Missingno just fucking with people.

>>4538905

Integrate THIS STORY

MAKE THE GAME GO INTO 256-BIT HIGH DEFINITION 3D HALF WAY THROUGH.
EVERYONE'LL SHIT BRIX.

have it as a huge mindfuck as opposed to a linear rpg

>>4539007

the last paragraph is tacked on and retarded

the coma thing might work
just have someone saying "Ash... please wake up, Ash..." at random intervals while he's walking

>>4539033
I take no responsibility, I saved it after reading it once, I've never touched it since

Having Red dead/asleep has been discussed. Not really going to go with that.

lol, i bet op isn't going to do anything and you've all been trolled

how about pallet town being deserted and red is the only character there?
you find your starter poke and travel throughout the region looking for your family

>>4539477
OP here. Not trolling. Forum here: http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

>>4539486
Interesting idea. I do want the game to start off quite normal though.

dabump a donk

Hola, I've got a bit to say.
1. Keep most of the game the same, but still, like everybody says, fuck up the music, characters, sprites, enough to be barely noticed.
2. Have an NPC in every town who will give some odd, cryptic directions, leading to the next NPC, who will do the same, until you finally get directions to one location in specific.
3. When the player reaches this area, shall we say, a random cave or hole in the trees in the forest, that's when shit gets real.
4. In this secluded area, there is a note, and a massive amount of old, ruined looking buildings.
The note explains why pokemon exist, and make it freaking creepy. Let's go with genetic experiments, alternate history, Chernobyl's long-term effects on wildlife, whatever. I'll leave the story to whoever want to write it.

>>4534743
wat

>>4539669
You're thinking the same way as I am. Most of this is planned for the actual hack. Going to start working on it in the morning, now that a lot of ideas have come together.

Check out the forum and post your ideas here for me: http://pokemonredhack.maxforum.org/

So when this thread dies, I'll still have the ideas.

Bump... If I can. +300 posts?

>>4539684

>>4531388
how about an asteroid?
hits mid game slowly as the ash covers the sky the area gets darker there are comments like "is it getting colder?"( suble refrence to another ice age) stuff like that then when you get to fight mewtwo there are bodies huddled around fires?
all this added to the last few ideas
also when you get to cerulean city for the mewtwo thing make it completely empty NOONE is around

An asteroid? Not a bad idea!
