Haelo! Luna_Luck here, wondering if it is even possible to make a pokemon like RPG? And if yes, then how? I have soo many ideas for a game like this, I just need the know-how :P

    I think it could be done. I have a lot of ideas on how to do this.

    The only problem is having attributes for all of the different characters. But I think I could find a way around that eventually.

    Arrays would be useful for sure.

    But again, a little creative thinking can get you round most problems!

    QS :D

    I think it's possible to make a Pokemon game, but please don't make a Pokemon clone! If you look at Gameloft's game Crystal Monsters for the Nintendo DSi, you'll see why clones are bad.

    Try to be creative with each game you make. Pretty much every game I've made is unique and original. It's okay to use elements from other games, though, as long as you add your own twist.

    Oh my goodness your right! i will try not to make a clone.. but i dont want it to be axactly like pokemon either.. like.. new teams/charachters/traineres... would that count as a clone? or pokemon game? i have lots of ROMs of hacks (not recommending it it eats up your life) and only a handful were good...

    As long as you add your own unique twist, it shouldn't count as a clone. If it does end up feeling too much like Pokemon, though, it's suggested you change some things.

    The best thing to do NOT to make it feel like a Poke-clone is to DITCH the MONSTERS. I know that the monsters are the most integral part, but so does everyone else. So they put monsters in the game, making it feel even more cloned. Put something else, like, er, programs. Spectrobes ( for Nintendo DS) had the digging and reviving element. Fossil Fighters(also for DS) had Vivosaurs, enhanced dinosaurs.

    Just DON'T use dogs or chickens. It makes it too real.

    Brrr. imagine: "Go, German Shepherd!! Use Scary Bite!"
    "Go, Albino Rooster!! Use Crow of Death!"
    German Shepherd's Attack lowered by 20!
    Albino Rooster's Health lowered by 10!
