– Player will not be allowed to gain experience for any Pokemon after the first ever Rival battle.

 

– Player will be allowed to catch and collect Pokemon, but will not be counted towards the Pokedex. Instead, Cursing Pokemon will count.

- If player catches a Pokemon, whether it’s a one-time Pokemon (Legendary such as the birds or mewtwo) or not, it will NOT count towards the Pokedex. This means that you can either choose to catch them all, or curse them all, but not both.

- Pokemon can’t level up, meaning none of them will have impressive attacks. They are usable in battle, but the battles will be quite boring. Attacks planned are: Pound, Tail Whip, Growl, Tackle. This includes any “boss” battles like Gym Leaders and Elite Four. ALL Pokemon will have a combination of these attacks.

 

– Perks of catching Pokemon includes allowing Ghost to take form of 2nd Pokemon in Party. If you have an Articuno on your second slot, Ghost will come out but will look like an Articuno. If you want the original Ghost backsprite, simply deposit any extraPokemon in PC.

FnafFan54321 that means you gotta decide which way you want to play, meaning there's an actual goal which you can fuck up or succeed at. but i want to make this game a GAME, not just a story telling video, because the original idea had no reward/punishment system and this adds this feature on. I'm pretty convinced i'll keep this plan from now on, because it's beautiful

1. it works with the limited time i have (i don't have time to program in every single attack to make all Pokemon 100% usable)
2. you have a choice whether you REALLY want to play the game it wasn't supposed to be played (i.e. like the original red, not like ghost)
3. you can still use the Pokedex, PC, and catching Pokemon system, a HUGE part of Pokemon games which I planned to leave out due to my programming restrictions

I love it, and I'm sure the end product will be worth a playthrough. Or if you really want to fulfill both goals, a second playthrough. I'm very excited!
