Pokémon Liquid Ocean

Winning HotY 2006, Pokémon Liquid Ocean became one of the most popular hacks of this community. Perfect mapping, stunning story, new challenges, all of that was created by Christos. Now, Matt NG joined as a co-worker and helps to make this hack even better. Now something from history. Originally, Liquid Ocean was hack of Emerald but dueto glitches the hack development was restarted and codebase was changed to BPRE.

April 29th - Restart
August 7th - Pre-alpha

Technical Data
Based on the stable engine of Pokémon FireRed - BPRE, Pokémon Liquid Ocean will offer the ultimate game experience for everyone. The game code will be changed respectively to the new name.

Hack Features
Pokémon Liquid Ocean will include following features, which may change during the development of the hack.

New Region
Beautiful region of Soala will offer a new view to the Pokémon world. Blooming with flowers and trees everywhere, Soala will offer very realistic look into the game.

Radio System
You will find some radios in some places. There you will be able to experience radio-based contests (Remember Buena's Password?), which may be tried only once per radio. There will be a radio in player's room and it will be the only one to change a radio station. You will hear some well-known ones from G/S/C and some completely new ones. Summarising, you will hear 5 different radio stations.

New indoor designs of Pokémon Centre and Pokémon Mart
The Pokémon Centre will be redesigned to cleaner, white style and Pokémon Mart will be orange styled.

New scripts, new story, new quests
As the scripting is very important part of the hack, it will be the tool to change the quests and storyline. You may look forward to new, exciting challenges, new faces in Gyms and whole new Elite Four.

New colours
We will see very nice palette of colours already included in early stages of pre-restart era.

Nice tunes to hear
Yup, you will hear exotic D/P music in some places. Combining with right atmosphere, you will get perfect experience. But there is still possibility to hear completely new music.


The Story
You first start at your hometown in Enzo, Legian town where you and your neighbour, May go to the route near the town. There you find a bag in the wild grass, you go closer and wild Pokémon run to attack you. The bag contains two Pokéballs, May and the hero quickly take a Pokéball and start fighting. Then after the battle, Daisy Oak, who now lives at a small house in Enzo to discover the region's Pokémon species, finds you and Cindy and takes you to the lab. She lets you both keep the Pokémon you chose before and your quest begins.

Screenshots
The most appreciated part of this thread is here. Current screenshots are from the post-restart era. So…

...o_o This seems far more suitable for ROM hacking, so I'm going to move it there.

(Note: Jeremy, if I moved it into the wrong forum there, just move it again. XD)

Chronix:Can you do overworld sprites?
If it's not hard for you can you do a battle Sprite for a Team Tornado Grunt with white and light purple clothes.Do it however you like but make sure it looks like he is a flying pokemon trainer.
