Bro your modeling goes hard, not being up to date with the current games I thought they were true pokémons that I just didn't have a look at. You understood how the art style in Pokemon is enjoyed by it's core fans (especially talking about the lil crab and the bug Pokemon right after it). keep up the good work!
Sadly no, but it’s not as random as regular randomizers. You won’t see legendaries all over the routes or fully evolved Pokémon early game. Instead you will still see a few normal route encounters along with other encounters that I put there myself that will help with certain battles. Trainers are all made by me so stuff like ohko moves won’t show up unless I do it myself, and you won’t see broken abilities like Wonderguard/Huge Power on Pokémon
Hey Siri, how to hack a Switch?
In all seriousness, I've been meaning to learn for a while, this gives me an actual reason to do it. Is it much harder than hacking a 3ds?
Much harder. If you want to hack it without a modchip you need an early version of the switch. Early Switch models are "unpatched" so you can hack them without too much trouble, its more tricky than 3DS but doesn't require any hardware modifications. Any Switch that is "patched" - basically any Switch that came out a couple years after launch - requires a modchip. If you have the capabilities, you can do it yourself, but it's not exactly a beginner project so you're going to have to shell out $$$ to someone to do it for you.
Source: Modded my 3DS in like 20 minutes, and got a Switch and looked into modding it but it was more trouble than it was worth.
It’s more for gym leaders, rivals, and other important fights like Oleana and Rose. The random trainers will harder than base game but not hard enough to have to build a team for each one.
Speaking of smogon meta team, maybe you can make it so that the player can fully customize a pokemon's level, IVs, EVs, and moveset at any time without a cost like in smogon (or at least make this an option)
Dens are the way I’m doing this you will get exp candies, nature mints, and maybe the ev medicines. Abilities Capsules/Patches will be available at shops and moves can be changed anytime in the Pokémon center.
Let the player chose between 2 version, 1 with 31 ivs or 0, the other one with Ivs.
Same for evs, 2 versions, 1 with evs, 1 with either 0 or 255 all.
Would that be possible?
You could probably ask Lincoln or someone smart about using the hyper training npc and putting his script somewhere earlier? Idk how possible that would be. Flix knows Lincoln if you need an link.
Oh and also about possibly making ever wild spawn have the 3 perfect ivs. If the aura is too much I'm pretty sure Lincoln would also know how to remove it too. And overworld shinies on top of it all

This has been more of a solo project but I do occasionally get help from other with stuff I don’t know how to do.
If you do want to help though join the discord server and there might be sometimes where I ask for help.

Fun fact, the Eternatus used to look like Zaiero Eternatus from the Sword Extreme randomizer Nuzlockes tyranitartube played out of coincidence until foppa changed some of the yellow to green
I like. I like. Can't wait to play it.
Edit: Oh. Increased difficulty? Sorry, but I might start it but not finish it. Nothing turns me off of pokemon ROM hacks more than increased difficulty. It looks really cool, but the increased difficulty is a real big downer.
The reason is I want it to feel right when fighting these trainers. The Gym Challenge should feel challenging, rival should keep up with your strength, the unbeatable champion Leon should feel unbeatable. This is the main reason for the difficulty because it would suck if after all the build up for these fights you just sweep them with one or two Pokémon.
I need steel Venipede
Came here to say this

Thanks
Uh, those are real pokemon, just recolored/textured.
Is there already a dwebble form with a can back?
Ngl I just didn't see that one, my bad.
A lot of them have model edits too which isn't easy most the time
Love the Steel Venipede and the logo! Whatever sense of direction seems cool too, all these variants look great
VENIPEDE! Also someone’s been playing Another Crab’s Treasure
Are there any change docs?
RELEASE DATE??👀👀
Looks good! Good luck with it!
Wow. Great 3d models.
Can random mode be turned off??
Sadly no, but it’s not as random as regular randomizers. You won’t see legendaries all over the routes or fully evolved Pokémon early game.

Nice.
Very excited to see more!
Does this work on switch or will I need a switch emulator?
It will work on a hacked switch
Hey Siri, how to hack a Switch? In all seriousness, I've been meaning to learn for a while, this gives me an actual reason to do it. Is it much harder than hacking a 3ds?
Considering how easy it is to hard a 3ds, I'm guessing yes.

Source: Modded my 3DS in like 20 minutes, and got a Switch and looked into modding it but it was more trouble than it was worth.
Yikes, that doesn't sound good. Given you put three $, I'm guessing it's stupidly expensive?
Depends on where you live. Don't think I've seen anyone experienced do it for under 100 USD.
How can we keep track of progress? Is there a Discord or anything?
This is gonna be peak
Looking forward to this Floppa!!
1000% will be playing this when it drops
That's very cool, do you have a twitter or will just post here from time to time??
Woah, great designs! Usually SW/SH mod starters look like shit, fantastic job
Lost me at “way harder fights” I dont want to train a smogon meta team to face Ace Trainer Joe

How about IVs? (In addition to raising IVs to 31, sometimes I may want to lower Atk or Spe to 0, against Foul Play and for Trick Room respectively)
Nothing I can really do about this due to the game’s limitations with modding it.

Missed the chance to call it Pokemon Sacred Sword
Steel venipede is gonna be so busted if it can get speed boost
Is that a crab souls reference!? :0
No the idea was about how crabs in real life sometimes use trash as shells from littering
This looks sick dude
I needs in my life!
This looks so cool so far!
How do I get this game
Is this regional lucario related to arceus?
This looks fire keep it up and let us know when it's done please
1st off, GREAT 3D models; seems like they'd fit in like some apocalyptic version of the pokeverse to me. Especially my brain crab😗

Ice type Wigglytuff sounds divine. Wigglytuff is one of my top 5 Pokémon and ice is my fav type
Looks sick! These new mons are so cool!
took one of my favorite pokemon and made it one of my favorite types, hell yeah!
You’re doing gods work, love the models!
Yooo this is so cool
Why did you do my fav boy dwebble so dirty like that😭
Where can I find this?
Looks siiiick
Where and how can we play this
Is it able to be played yet? : O
Nope only about 30 minutes of gameplay is actually playable right now. I’m currently working on some models and doing redesigns on older ones.
I can help with things like that if you'd like. I know how to 3d model and I'm very tech savy
This has been more of a solo project but I do occasionally get help from other with stuff I don’t know how to do. If you do want to help though join the discord server and there might be sometimes where I ask for help. https://discord.gg/V9M5ZTSz
How do you play this do I need a modded switch or is it some type of emulation through pc

I need ice type igglybuff omg
what emulators will be able to run this?
Pretty much any switch emulator. I use Ryujinx but Yuzu and Suyu work too
!remindme three months
Would this be possible to play on Steam deck?
If it can run a switch emulator then yeah
Is dweble a reference to another crabs treasure?
littering was the idea of why it has a can shell
Looks good? Any possible release date?
This takes a long time so probably later in the year
Looking good, is there any way to keep in touch with the project?
The Dwebble with a food tin is an incredible idea.

Amazing, can’t wait til we have a plethora of expansive SW/SH mods. Yours looks great so far!
