Important scripting question to DC

[mattgcn]

How exactly do we insert our sprites? Delta showed me a sheet that contains a front a back, mini frames and a footrint, but there are no outlines whatsoever, so I don't know where to place our sprites, and it will be a major pain to redo all 386 with our new specifications (Which I think would be much easier if we went FRLG for 1-151, then RS for the rest,except Teddiursa) then, with all my work on the fronts, to redo them.

How will locations/rarities work out? Will it be possible to have 6 or seven Pokemon numbers?

{EDIT: Also, overworlds are nowhere to be found, but I suspect they go with trainer overworlds, right?
/EDIT}

Also, how will new Casforms, unowns (especially RA) be scripted? Will it be possible to have different Deoxys forms and all the Spinda Spots patterns in the game? (Which brings me to my Spinda Cam idea...a sub dex in the game)

How will the scripting of moves, abilities, berries, items and trainers work?

How do shinies work? And if the engine decides, then why do we enter a "shiny" sheet?

How will music work? Can we set loop "places" in some themes that comes with the intro attached?

What about cries? Can they be MP3 format?

[DeltaSuicune]

Spinda's going to be programmed in simply because of the sheer amount of patterns.

Shinies will randomly appear (as they do in the game) and all the Pokemon can be scripted obviously~

Music is easy and yes it can be mp3 format

Sez the man.

On a similar note, regarding the earlier question about evolution via stones instead of levels;

If(ItemUsed(BLAHSTONE)){
evolve blah;
}

Alright, and when you have to trade?

Uh, looking over the script, how come there's no..

I know it's not random, there was a whole dealy on Serebii about it.

DC been busy?

Another idea I had had a while ago. Global trades.

We have a global repository of moves, abilities, pokemon, items and trainers, And then, have it so that these items can be transfered and woven into the game. Of course it would have to be updated frequently,and may be hard to input, then we'd have to make a GLOBAL global dex, but think of the possibilties. The only untradable/redoable thing would be TM's. Pokemon from another game will only be compatible with TM's and MT's that are found in their respective regions (Unless someone wants to do that :/) and they are non tradable.

This also fits in with my Global Union Room idea, where trainers from all PO games meet to battle and trade and such.

Possible?

How does capture rate work?
