Update: Until now I have been putting off using the actual RPG maker to do the actual creating, opting instead to put together a complete storyline, Pokemon list and other things like that. I have begun to actually start worldbuilding. But I have reached a wall. A very tall wall. A wall that spans hundreds of miles long and many feet high. The Pokedex. The only way to edit the order of the Pokemon and their respective Pokedex numerical assignments is through a reference text document. Each one has its own array of data like this
code:
[1]
Name=Bulbasaur
InternalName=BULBASAUR
Type1=GRASS
Type2=POISON
BaseStats=45,49,49,45,65,65
GenderRate=FemaleOneEighth
GrowthRate=Parabolic
BaseEXP=64
EffortPoints=0,0,0,0,1,0
Rareness=45
Happiness=70
Abilities=OVERGROW
HiddenAbility=CHLOROPHYLL
Moves=1,TACKLE,3,GROWL,7,LEECHSEED,9,VINEWHIP,13,POISONPOWDER,13,SLEEPPOWDER,15,TAKEDOWN,19,RAZORLEAF,21,SWEETSCENT,25,GROWTH,27,DOUBLEEDGE,31,WORRYSEED,33,SYNTHESIS,37,SEEDBOMB
EggMoves=AMNESIA,CHARM,CURSE,ENDURE,GIGADRAIN,GRASSWHISTLE,INGRAIN,LEAFSTORM,MAGICALLEAF,NATUREPOWER,PETALDANCE,POWERWHIP,SKULLBASH,SLUDGE
Compatibility=Monster,Grass
StepsToHatch=5355
Height=0.7
Weight=6.9
Color=Green
Habitat=Grassland
RegionalNumbers=1,231
Kind=Seed
Pokedex=Bulbasaur can be seen napping in bright sunlight. There is a seed on its back. By soaking up the sun's rays, the seed grows progressively larger.
BattlerPlayerY=0
BattlerEnemyY=25
BattlerAltitude=0
Evolutions=IVYSAUR,Level,16
And there are 649 entries. I want my game to be accurate to the level of RSE or FR/LG, including types, matchups, movesets and abilities. If this entire list is up to date for Gen V info, I have a lot of work ahead of me. Thankfully though I only have 163 pokemon in my list, which are all pulled from the first three generations, so anything after national number 386 I can just delete.
Also teaser town. This is Natron City, which sits right next to Victory Road, and is actually the first town/city the player will enter after leaving their home. I am considering either removing the department store, as it is the first town, or simply restricting the items sold and adding a bigger one with better selection in a future city.
EDIT:
Here is the completed Pokedex roster for your viewing pleasure.
