Hi guys. I've been using Bulbapedia for years but I've never been on the forum before. I mostly hang out over at Serebii, but this board really seems like it would be more up my alley. I've noticed some people here have blogs where they showcase their Pokémon game ideas. I've been working on a fan game for over four years now and wanted to share it with people, but my digital art skills are abysmal and I don't have a working scanner, so all I have are ideas, something which Serebii is stongly against. Not only do they not allow ideas for new games unless you have drawings or sprites to go with them (except in one thread which no one visits except to post their own ideas), but up until recently they didn't even allow speculation or wish lists for Gen V (and even now, I don't think they'll be rewarding us for guessing right like they do here!)
Right now I'm working on my first blog post that basically just introduces the games, the start of the journey, the new starter Pokémon, etc. What I wanted to do was make my blog like a sort of mini-walkthrough of the game, with each post furthering the storyline and introducing a few new Pokémon and characters. However, it was originally planned as a Gen V game, and since Gen V is actually coming out, I'm going to have to wait and see what Black and White are like so that my ideas aren't redundant. I'll probably have to scrap some Pokémon that end up coming out in B&W (which means reorganizing the regional Pokédex which will be a pain) re-distribute the Gym types, etc. I'll try to update maybe once a month with some new tidbits until the games come out. Once that happens the project should start to pick up steam.
So until then, I'm looking forward to being a part of the community and I hope to hear some feedback on my ideas.
(Wow, that's gotta be the longest introductory post ever, right? :-D)
