idea Pokemon SecretSilver (Ideas)

[fliteska]

Not entirely sure if this is the place for this, but if it isn't please feel free to move it )

So, I'm Fliteska or Flit, extremely new to rom editing (other than evolution editing) but recently, I started making some changes on SoulSilver.
With this being my first hack, I have decided to keep it nice and simple with just basic events like Sinnoh Legends and other pokemon not native to Kanto/Johto. Also upping the difficulty with different pokemon on trainer rosters.

I am looking for ideas of how to integrate various legends into the game and possible locations for the events to occur.
So far, I've changed:

All 3 Johto starters by the time you reach Cherrygrove (Given by Guide Gent), you'll get your bike at this point too. With you having 3 pokemon early on, your rival will also have 3 pokemon and the team changes based on your first pokemon, but by the end of the game he will use one of the eeveelutions as a main pokemon.

Legends will be told by NPCs throughout the region, NPCs will unlock the events to encounter them.

Mew: Unknown location (Ex-Team Rocket Scientist - 16 Badges - Mewtwo in party)
Regirock: Mt. Moon (Hoenn Historian - 12 Badges)
Regice: Ice Path (Hoenn Historian - 12 Badges)
Registeel: Mt. Mortar (Hoenn Historian - 12 Badges)
Jirachi: Mt. Moon (Hiker - 16 Badges)
Regigigas: Unknown location (Hoenn Historian - 16 Badges - Regis in party)
Cresselia & Darkrai: Unknown locations (Kid had bad/good dream - 16 Badges)
Absol: Makes appearances following gym battles in Kanto, battle it once you defeat Blue (16 Badges)

Celebi, Latios, Latias, Groudan, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Deoxys, Jirachi, Dialga, Palkia & Giratina:
No idea what to do with these!

Levels of encounters will be changed, all 493 pokemon accesssible, no trading needed for evolution. locations of events are subject to change.

All, I'm looking for here is ideas where to put the other legends and if anyone has any ideas of linking them into the story (like I did with Lunar Duo and dreams).

Update: I have added a patch! It is nowhere near finished, but it has most of the legends in the land ) I still need to change the wild encounters and there is some events I still want to add.

Legendary Encounters I've added so far ) Hard to work out how to make them 1 time events when I only know of 35 safe flags Got the 3 golems and lake guardians all set to clearflags once 1 flag is set Not sure it is the best way of doing it but it seems to be working.

Sounds like you have your work cut out for you!

Good luck with your hack, and let us know if you need assistance, we will do the best we can.

Once you have a patch together I will move this thread from the Ideas section to the Progressing Edits section for you.

Cheers man ^^ I think the only thing I need help with is finding flags to use, I used StormSilver to steal the flags that used for its events (legends and items) but still can't do everything I want. Might end up ditching the gym leader pokemon gifts I had planned as I can't add anything to the gym scripts (to avoid extra flags needed) without them messing up the whole thing Only way I can figure the gifts would work is if it's possible to receive a pokemon and have it put straight in PC, but not even sure that's possible.

I thought of a different idea to unlock certain pokemon a bunch of legends will be released once you beat the 16th gym, this will release:

Regirock, Regice, Registeel, Absol, Heatran, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Latias, Latios, Celebi, Jirachi, Manaphy, Deoxys, Darkrai and Cresselia

Once you encounter certain legends, you will unlock others...

Regigigas: encounter Regirock, Regice and Registeel

Dialga, Palkia and Giratina: encounter Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf

Shaymin: encounter Celebi, Jirachi and Manaphy

Mew: encounter Mewtwo

Arceus: encounter Dialga, Palkia and Giratina

The only legend that requires you to catch pokemon is Regigigas which needs all 3 Regi in your party.

This isn't dead ) I've added some more encounters )

Originally, I wanted to add Spiritomb into Lavender Town's graveyard, but seeing as that place no longer exists... I decided to move it to House of Memories which is still in Lavender Town, I think it will be a level 50 encounter but haven't decided on that yet. Also, I have added the first generation fossil items as a reward for the Ruins of Alph puzzles (excluding the Ho-Oh one), Not sure if I will add the fossil reviving to earlier in game but I might. I have also upped the levels of encounters for the legends already in the game.

Suicune: Lv.50

Lugia: Lv.55

Ho-Oh: Lv.75

Articuno: Lv.60

Zapdos: Lv.60

Moltres: Lv.60
