NPC lines

[SilentSentinel]

Post anything you want the NPCs in the game to say.

[NyteFyre]

haven't we already done this? or do we need more? anyway, i had one for an easter egg,that kinda got ignored...

Man on Computer: Hey,could you back off, please? I'm trying to post on my Route 201 thread here. Now lets see...I'll Have Pyroo use Ember, on Teagle, and Pattle use Water Gun on Embli...

not sure how good it is, but figured it'd be good , since Acanthite has one...

[ImmunityBow]

We can ALWAYS have more to choose from here. Yes, an OI Easter Egg could be cool to have.

[NyteFyre]

oooo, how about some sort of theif person you battle?

Intro: Gah! I've been spotted! Defeat: you'll never catch me! AV: ...-runs off screen-

[SilentSentinel]

We'd have to program him running off, or you could just have him say something after.

[NyteFyre]

that wouldn't be too hard would it?i mean you would have to do that for rival battles, and face-off, like when there's a part where Orion confronts Team Rocket, and they argue for a bit, then one team runs off screen. thetheif could be like a returning character,maybe seeing him in key areas, trying to steal valuable artifacts, or something...

[SilentSentinel]

It might be easier to program the screen going black for a secong and then him being gone, but I'm not sure.

[ImmunityBow]

Running off isn't a problem. It's a fairly basic action in RPG Maker if I recall correctly.

[NyteFyre]

so,what about making this thief a returning character? maybe after like 3 encounters, on the 4th, he realizes that he'll never succeed, then something happens, and you get in a double battle with him, against these 2 dudes, either grunts, or something...sorta like how you and your D/P/Pt rival, the one dude, not the opposite gender friend rival, double battle at Mt. Coronet, and again, only in Pt., at the Battle Frontier....

[Mediocrity_Incarnate]

The debate on having multi battles is how easy it is to program. There are some in the rocket/orion plot but we arent sure how plausible it is to have it in.

[ImmunityBow]

I'm 70% sure 2 on 2 battles are in the Poccil's Essentials kit we're using. I'm not sure though if you can have the "partner" Pokemon such as Aaron.

[NyteFyre]

so,are we go, or no, on having this guy? and maybe as a returning character?

[Black Temple Gaurdian]

Random guy: I'll trade my Flish for your Magikarp, they're a rare delicasey. What do you mean Flish isn't a Pokémon! Damn, you called my bluff.

[Cyndadile]

I'm 70% sure 2 on 2 battles are in the Poccil's Essentials kit we're using.

I tried it a couple of months ago, and there where definitly 2 on 2 battles. The same people CAN be 1 on 1 if you talk to one at a time instead of stepping inbetween them.

[SilentSentinel]

You tried it on Poccil's?

[Quinn]

so, ragingprimape, this is the tread that you were talkin bout? If so, do I just put random NPC's for anything I could think about? or do u have a list or what?

[SilentSentinel]

This is the thread I was talking about. Just post whatever you can come up with.

[Mediocrity_Incarnate]

Encounter: Yeah! Guitar solo!!
Defeat: That was so underwhelming!
Talk Again: The Screaming Persians are the hot band right now.

[Cranky Guy]

This Easter Egg was created by someone else last time. Its a Christmas Easter Egg. I just tweaked with it a little. Its about a pokemaniac dressed like santa clause who has a red nosed Caribrisk that knows Fly. If you beat him, he wll give you the Caribrisk.

Pokemaniac Encounter: Ho,ho,ho. Merry Christmas!

Pokemaniac Defeat: I thought I could be Santa.

Pokemaniac talk after defeat: Im no good at this. Here, have my Caribrisk. (Gives Caribrisk if you have an empty slot.)

Pokemaniac after giving away Caribrisk: Take good care of my Caribrisk, OK?

[Mediocrity_Incarnate]

Uh were probably not gonna want to give away a pokemon that is evolved by a stone. It doesnt make much sense and takes away from some of the difficulty of getting a caribrisk on your own.

[Black Temple Gaurdian]

Random guy: I'll trade my Flish for your Magikarp, they're a rare delicasey. What do you mean Flish isn't a Pokémon! Damn, you called my bluff.

[Quinn]

A little edit to the SC one, how bout have him give you a stanler with fly and a snow move. Also when you would battle the Pokemaniac SC, give him around 1-2 Stanler and 2-4 Carabrisk. (All with fly & all stanlers with a snow move liked powered snow or hail or something not too powerful, but gives an effect)
(and something I dont think would be to well but I will say anyways, give 1 of his Carabrisk a reindeer nickname {dasher prancer etc..} but not the Stanler he would give you) Also unless Carabrisk shinies have a red nose, it wouldn't be a good idea.

[Cranky Guy]

Yeah that would be better if he gave you a Stantler (Even though I would love it if the Stantler had a red nose.) and not a Caribrisk.

[Mediocrity_Incarnate]

Also there is kind of a lot of gift pokemon already.

[SilentSentinel]

I agree. Having some random santa clause dude giving you a pokemon doesn't really work for me.

[Quinn]

okay, I got it! He doesn't give you a gift, but instead when you talk to him with either a stanler or a carabrisk in your party, he teaches it fly. Like one of those move tutor people. Though a normal fly move is just an HM, he can teach it only to a stanler or a carabrisk one time deal thingy. You know what I am talkin bout. Also kinda random, but on the site, I haven't seen many changes to the map, so I dont know, do u have a snow town? If so you could put him in a snow house. Give it a little change, like a slap of red and green or more snow or something and you got yourselves a freaky Santa dude that you can battle and then let him teach your "Deer" how to fly.

[Mediocrity_Incarnate]

So like a move tutor?

[NyteFyre]

well, more specific than that....at least from what i gather....apparently he teaches Fly once to either a Stantler or Carbirisk you have, but only after you beat him....that's the gist i got from Quinn's post...

[Quinn]

that is right!!! (though it Needs to be in a snow town & possibly in a different style & color house) now if this is possible we need the sprite maker for a battle And a world (outside battle) sprite.

[SilentSentinel]

Well, I guess you could put him in Frost Town, but you'd have to convice a spriter to make the person for you, and see if it's programmable...

[Quinn]

Hey crank guy, do u want in on this? I dont wanna be alone for this AND this was more of your idea, I was just giving it a spark.

[ikkyblob]

How about a trade?

any ice type/stantler/carbrisk for a stantler/carbrisk with fly, powder snow, signal beam, another move(possibly topaz exclusive), one of a kind red nose, and nevermelt ice/other hold item

[Quinn]

that sounds good. Also for the NPC he says I think he shouldn't say MERRY CHRISTMAS, because not "everyone" celebrates it. (I do just for the know). Also we can't forget though that if this even happens, it shouldn't be on this thread, possible a new thread. This is the NPC one and we dont wanna throw people around the forums and getting mixed up.

[Cyndadile]

You tried it on Poccil's?

I think so...

This was where I got it...

[Jupies]

Well, I'm back after strugg-
Nah, I was just being a lazy bum.

Gamblers

Intro: Gambling's for fools!
Defeat: That's the way I like it though.
A.B.: I, for one, think that we should enjoy what precious little time we have.

Intro: I wrote a script to read off during our battle!
Defeat: "A winner is you!"
A.B: I'm still working out the grammatical errors.

Intro: Ante up!
Defeat: Augh.. good game, kid.
A.B: Go buy yourself a new pair of shoes or something.

Intro: Watch my form as I throw the pokeball into the fray!
Defeat: You see? Throwing things is an art!
A.B: I can throw hats, knives, cards, dice, it's all the same to me.

[Cranky Guy]

I still like mine better. No one would want to trade a red nosed reindeer with fly for a normal reindeer. And whats wrong with merry christmas? It is christmas there and he should say it because hes dressed like santa.

[Quinn]

Though the trade sounds good, I do go with the idea crank guy started on. I still believe he shouldn't give you a rednose though, the red nose would be like a notched ear pichu, it is an different. I'm most for either my "move-tutor-after-you-defeat-him" or just a gift, though it would be a stanler. Yah he could say Merry Christmas though I just dont want people that dont celebrate it getting pissed and posting junk about how we do. U know? He could say Happy Holidays and STILL Be Santa Clause or we could have him say MERRY CHRISTMAS and just tell the other people to "KISS MY @$*"

[Black Temple Gaurdian]

I vote kiss my ass. Screw religion Christmas was never deeply religous anyway.

[ImmunityBow]

Absolutely no being rude to the player. That doesn't make any sense from a business, professional, enjoyment or fun perspective.

[Black Temple Gaurdian]

Yes but not Saying Merry Christmas because it might offend people?! May I remind everyone who complained when the government tried to change Christmas to Winterval? It wasn't the Christians.
