BASIC QUESTIONS (119,248 views)

[Bambu]

Hi there, just discovered this game earlier today and tried out the demo (Just received my Apricorn Basket. I'm probably going to hold off until the final release now.) It's definitely one of the best fan-games I've played! I have a few questions, sorry if they've already been answered, but the search function on this site isn't working for me that well.

1. Will there be post-game content? If so, what will the replay-ability be like?
2. Any plans for making HMs less annoying? (In other words, will I need to keep a party slot open for an "HM Buddy"?)
3. Will all Pokemon be available, including unchosen starters and such?

Thanks for any answers and best wishes with development! Have a wonderful day.

- Post game, I haven't thought of anything story wise for it, other than catching Gemmany and Gazear.

- HM's are still in the game but you'll only need to use the annoying ones a couple of times, Cut is needed for the story to progress past the forest but it's only needed afterwards to reach items. Surf and Fly are needed.

- Probably but haven't decided how yet.

Thanks for the answers! Just to follow-up though.

- Cool to hear there will be some story stuff after! I was wondering if there would be incentive to continue playing and training you Pokemon though? Even the official games sometimes suffer from nothing really happening post-story. An area like Battle Frontier or even something like "New Game +" would be nice. Sorry if that sounds too "ideas guy"ish.

- Wonderful to hear!

- Good to hear.

Thanks again for all the effort you're putting into this game! It really looks spectacular so far, I'm very excited to see the next update.

Will Lunar dark and solar light be two different versions on the final game?

[bambu]

Hi again, sorry for so many questions. I know the sprites aren't, but are the current Pokemon Types on the wiki updated for the final game?

Hope all is going well, have a great day!

how to play plz ?

[DragonicDoom]

Is it possible to do something similar to Uranium where we lose our progress but our pokemon are transferred to the PC? I know some fakemon like Shrublade have been taken out so they won't be able to be transferred. I don't mind starting from the beginning but i do mind losing all the pokemon i had. If it is a complete reset without anything then I'm alright with it to be honest. I can still play the older save if i want to.

Hi again, just wondering if there's any place that's more active than these forums in regards to SLLD? Like a skype group or chatroom?

Also, sorry if it's annoying to ask such a vague question, but how's development going, still on track for a release within the next two months? Do you think you'll need any more beta testers or are you pretty set?

I asked in the Shoutbox, but I'll ask here too I suppose: Are there still plans to include official Pokemon after the main story? The 'dex really seems to hold up well on its own without them imo, but if they'd be easy to implement, the more the merrier I suppose.

Thanks for any answers or replies as usual!

There is no real chatroom for the game yet, just one where me and two other guys discuss pokemon stats, movesets etc.
If you have some knowledge about that things, and you want to help, i could add you to that.

Development is going well at the moment, but still many things to do. There will be an Update Thread in the next days with new infos.

Beta testers will be picked when we are done.

There will be no official Pokemon in the game, they make no sense for our region, and we saw what happend with Uranium (they use some official Pokemon in the game)

Budcheep is always a good decision, if you haven't choosed Herovor, you could use Cheepip. Doveheart is strong for the start, but has no evo, so with more progress, it's getting a bit weak.
All three are catchable at the start (Budcheep on Route 1, Cheepip in Mossy Forest, and Doveheart with Headbutt in Mossy Forst or Serpentine City)

Ah, no problem. Not sure how much help I'd be there, but I can do my best. Minimum, I can try to keep conversations active, hehe.

Sounds great, thanks for the update update!

Alrighty, I guess I'm a bit eager to help.

Thank goodness. That would have been major overload to be honest.

Thanks for the replies, you rock!

Hello, is this part of the forum still in use or do i have to ask my questions somewhere else?

[Attila]

Nevermind, i am the idiot here. I didnt watch the post dates. I did not really read the whole forum so if my question was already answered then im sorry for posting, really. I have 3 questions, First: In percentage, how far are you with the game as in with the world and not counting the story how far can i go ? (not sure if i wrote what i actually wanted there) Second: In number, how many Fakemon are there while not counting the evolutions ? And Third: Will there be or is there any Player Character customization, like clothes or hair ? Thanky ou for reading and sorry for my grammar, english is not my mother language.

[Attila]

I'm sorry for posting meaninglessly but i want to update my questions. I found your Fakemon list and im loving it and hope there will be more in the future. Instead i would like to ask what other features there are like minigames and so.

Hi i want to know if there is any way to change the controlls cause its really bothering me, im used to play with WASD instead the arrow keys and i really want to change it.
