the unfortunate thing about pokemon sage's development is that it's kind of hard to tell just how far along things are but from what i CAN tell they're still chugging along and keeping to themselves. most of what they have to do is actual map construction and fleshing that out.

the poke designs are seriously really good and i think we live in the worst possible timeline where out of all the 100% 'new' fangames uranium is the only one that's completed

i was actually surprised to find out just how many sprites they have completed


also i really love this line of pokemon that's a ghost that's possessed lab equipment. the first evolution changes type as an endothermic or exothermic reaction based on whether the prevo is holding a burn heal or an ice heal and the final evolution is gotten by giving it the opposite one to hold to balance it out

phlask: poison/ghost

endothermic/exothermic noxial, which are still poison/ghost but will learn ice/fire moves based on what form they are

fumighast: poison/ghost

this is straight up something that i wish was in a real pokemon game

Do you actually play the games or do you just focus on the competitive side and get someone to comp you a finished copy a week after release???

Yeah Sage is everything Uranium wishes it was.

And Ethereal Gates is rad, but the fact that neither Moston OR Mosochuset learns Fling or Rock Throw naturally is absurd and I am absolutely appalled that my favorite team is not honored in this niche pokemon in an unofficial fangame made by someone not me :colbert:

I just made my first ever non-traded Milotic in Emerald. Battery in the cart is dead so no berry growing.

gently caress berry blending forever.

My Emerald is now 1 poke shy of a full living dex, just need to finish XD and transfer that Lugia.

I remember accidentally fishing out a Feebas years and years ago in Ruby from sheer luck and getting a Milotic, then lording it over my friends

Fishing out the Feebas wasn't too difficult, got it on the 13th tile, but since berries don't grow since the battery is dead I had to create enough high-level low-feel blocks with a limited number of berries. That took multiple attempts and making those blocks is so slow and goddamn tedious.

At least now I have one so I can clone it in Emerald and distribute it to my R/S/FR/LG/C/XD.

Oh for sure. I just meant I was more or less a kid and the governing mechanic of how Feebas was placed in the game was Greek to me so I felt like I won the lottery.

Maxing beauty with a limited inventory of supplies sounds pretty awful but also is a cool achievement

Oh jeez. As a kid without knowing how that works, absolutely getting one is an achievement.

I'm getting some kids through the series, started them on FR/LG, and catching Feebas was definitely one of those points I helped them with. Along with getting the Regis. I have no idea how kids were supposed to do these things without the internet.

I've done it once and now I'll never have to do it again. So much easier to use the prism scale.

Also the first puzzle room with the Regi alphabet thing helps a lot. I wrote it down on a piece of paper and used it to translate the instructions like "wailord at back/relicanth at front" or whatever it was.

I like that they carried on with the Regis having crazy requirements in ORAS. What was it, nicknamed Regice holding an ice themed item and it had to be in the day? e: for Regigigas I mean

I've done it blind too, but it's really unlikely to happen with most other people. Besides, someone had to have discovered that to even tell other people about it.

As a kid, I once spent a weekend with a friend trying to catch all 28 Unown in FRLG because as Deoxys had not been made available at that point (as far as I knew) I had convinced myself getting them all would summon him.

Suffice to say it didn't work.

Ahkay. I wasn't allowed video games as a kid, didn't venture into proper 3rd gen until 2006 or so. Just now going back and doing living dex's in all the games to support the kids I got going through them. Wasn't aware GameFAQs and such was so prolific back then.
