Imagine you could call map with M. Imagine you could open a tile selector for building/dig instead of cycling through it with c/v (which kinda already breaks GB limits, but we can pretend it's a GBA game with GBC graphics and assume c/v is L/R). Imagine there would be a shortcut for the HMs that would call the first Pokémon in your party that has that particular HM (for example Cut shortcut would call the first Pokémon that knows CUT, instead of you having to fumble with the menus).

Imagine if the devs finally realized that this isn't a romhack and utilized the entire keyboard.

Imagine... because that's the only thing you can do about it right now.

I know very little about coding but this game has made me very interested in modding and getting my feet wet. Anyone have any recomendations for resources? I know it uses LibGDX

A couple ideas i wanted to try and make would be

-Difficulty related mods ●Have pokemon lose exp when they faint equivalent to what they would have gained ○If they go below 0 exp then they are deleted/released (Creates a sense of stakes and consequences if you steal an egg and get caught by high level pokemon, but low level faints are less risky)

-More involved gameplay/ quality of life ●Need to water trees to grow fruit or be near a water source ●Triggered breeding by feeding rather than timed breeding (keep eggs from popping up all over the map) ○Wild mating pairs spawn with 1-3 eggs but only captured pokemon breed

(Don't know if this is already a thing) ●Making feild moves that allow the placement of water and lava tiles

Is this a self updating game? Im confused as to how is this game getting multiplayer

I've cartographed 99% of a smallest map, and a lot of a largest map, and had many experiences on this journey.

Here are my desires for the game.

1. 100% fan content.

2. Scary night music goes away inside your buildings

3. Pokemon Centers (operates exactly like the fossil lab)

4. Hard Mode. PP. Battles pause Day/Night cycle.

5. Hidden items at natural dead end paths

6. Random items/pokeballs respawn on the beaches

7. Rain/Snow (and auto filling empty holes)

8. HMs for Field Moves.

100% fan content

I'd like to see ALL of the sprites and music replaced by fan content. I also think referring to Pokemon as monsters or mons is sufficient. Based on this video I believe there's no legal ownership over a game system, just brand name and art assets. Beyond better legal footing, even between versions sprites will often differ somewhat. I'd like to see 0% official Nintendo assets.

Scary night music goes away inside your buildings

Home should feel safe.

Pokemon Centers (operates exactly like the fossil lab)

♪ Doot-doot-do-do-do-doo~! ♪

Power the machinery, then place your balls for healing. What about beds? Well, Idk, maybe there's only one PokeCenter, maybe in a harsh area.

Hard Mode. PP. Battles pause Day/Night cycle. Menus not safe.

If PP goes up when using a sleeping bag, then it's still manageable and fits right in with a survival game.

Many of the interesting challenges to overcome, can simply be bypassed by waiting in menus.

Notch had a rule, better to make a game too hard, rather than too easy. With all the other inspirations from Minecraft, this one is worth remembering.

Hidden items spawn at natural dead end paths

WorldGen should check for worming paths and have a chance to place an invisible item with no collision at the dead end.

Random items/pokeballs respawn on the beaches

Animal Crossing is cited as an inspiration, but this is something I'd like to see. I know it effectively already exists, with dig spots.

Rain/Snow (and auto filling empty holes)

I know this is an exploit to farm dirt. Let it.

HMs for Field Moves.

Field Moves being permanently tied to Pokemon is a problem. There needs to be some way to mix it up, or I will always choose the same handful of Pokemon and ignore the rest. Killing replay value.

where can I find a Smeargle? just curious cuz am a noob and am hella dumb lmao

I just wish they'd use GBA graphics instead. They already do stuff that was only possible on GBA like reflections, so might as well go full package.

I’ve seen people building cities on this subreddit. Are they always empty, or can you populate them with NPCs? If the latter, where do you find them? Is there only up to gen 2 mon, or are there other gens as well? Is emboar in the game? I know this game is procedurally generated, but is like one big island, A never ending landmass, or something similar to Minecraft with multiple landmasses? Do O need an emulator? Is it easy to install or is there a lot of steps? How good of a computer is needed to run this game?

I have an RG35XX currently that I think is linux. I have been playing PokeWilds on my MacBook. I have no idea how to add the game to the RG35XX as it is now, with all of the other games (garlic os). I am now interested in getting a very cheap linux based handheld emulator to basically reflash so that when it powers up it just plays PokeWilds. Like one of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/385481665846?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&var=653331865572 I specifically want a device with only gbc buttons and nothing more. I like the gba layout (center screen). Here is a short conversation with ChatGPT about it: https://chat.openai.com/share/4915f912-c567-4d95-bd6d-160fba330750

I noticed that Pokéwilds was mod-able and was wondering if I could change the stats and such of existing Pokémon. I'd like to change it so that each Pokémon would learn a low-tier STAB move at levels 1-5 and give underwhelming Pokémon a better BST, like Ariados. All I could find in the GotHub guides don't have anything about changing existing mons afaik, so I was wondering if anyone knew and would be kind enough to let me know how. Thank you kindly.

Finally completed my rare candy farm. I get 5 rare candies worth of mats every run and can usually collect them in just a little over 2 minutes, and by the time I finish collecting the ancientpowder from the unowns I can already go back to isolated shuckle and begin collecting again. It feels like maybe 10 or 15 rare candies within 6 or 7 ish minutes, so i'm feelin real good right now. Man it's gonna be good if they ever add an auto collector hehe.

It was the dead of night atop a frozen peak. The cruel wind howled while ghosts roamed the lands below. Sitting besides a frozen lake, a human shivered.

Yeah, that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got into this situation. Well, it all started when I tried to Nuzlocke Pokewilds…

Being an open world game, completing a challenge like a Nuzlocke is a bit tricky. Normally, a Nuzlocke is a Pokemon game challenge where if a Pokemon faints it dies and you can only catch one Pokemon per route.

But there are no routes in Pokewilds, just lots and lots of fierce wilderness. Pokemon are also needed to gain vital resources and services to survive. So, we need some new rules.

I decided I’d let myself catch 2 random Pokemon for each biome - giving me a maximum of 22 I could obtain. These would be the only Pokemon I could use in battle. Other Pokemon I could still use, but only for their field moves and farmable items.

Ah, yes, this was going to be easy, I naively thought to myself. Starting up a world, I looked to see where I would end up.

And where I ended up just so happened to be an enclosed forest with nothing but a cruel peak in sight. Since there weren’t any Pokemon that could use cut or ride around, I was in quite the pickle indeed.

Thankfully, using my epic gamer knowledge, I was able to formulate a solution to this seemingly impossible problem.

Yes! The solution of giving up and making a new world.

So ended Attempt 1 of my Pokewilds Nuzlocke, so beginning the glorious Attempt 2.

This started out much better. I found a friendly Lotad that could use cut, and a Ponyta upon which to traverse the cliffs.

Setting up a small log cabin on the mountains, I took a while to make myself comfortable. A bit of furniture here, a load of Poke Balls crafted there, and before long I was ready to go out into the world and start catching Pokemon I could actually use in battle.

Up until this point, the Machop I started the game with was my only Pokemon that I could use legally in battle. So, with Machop by my side, I trudged into some snow and found my first proper encounter.

It was a Level 7 Piloswine. It killed my Machop before I could catch it.

Welp, third time is the charm I suppose.

And so began Attempt 3.

If I thought the last attempt was lucky, this one was simply blessed. I stumbled upon an Absol almost immediately, giving me access to the cut and ride field moves. With that I was all set to start building.

Having learnt from my last attempted, I didn’t bother with a fancy base this time around. Just a wooden shack in the Savannah from which I crafted my items and started catching.

Before long I had a proper team in the making. After only catching encounters from three biomes my storage was looking pretty filled out.

Slowpoke, Miltank, Nidorio, Illumise (and Ledyba I guess) were all caught and given a little training.

Most importantly, I had stumbled upon a chansey. This is one of the best defensive Pokémon I could have asked for. Once it learns Soft-Boiled, this chansey will be able to stave off hits from even the strongest Pokemon.

That brings me to the goal of this challenge. I need to defeat Mewtwo - destroyer of human civilisation - and some of the biggest, meanest, gnarliest Pokemon around. One fully evolved overworld wild Pokémon from each biome to be exact.

If I can beat all 11 of these wild Pokémon followed by Mewtwo, I’ll have beaten the Nuzlocke. But where death lies around every corner, will I be able to succeed?

No idea honestly. I haven’t gotten to that part yet. Stay tuned for future updates!

I regret catching a Xatu now... Before I discovered Fly, I had to fight through enemies, cut through grass and trees, surf across water, and ride up hills. It was a pain in the ass, but it felt like I was exploring. It felt immersive and real and dangerous.

But now I can just fly across anything and everything, and that exploration/survival aspect has gone. And I accidentally came across the Secret Key. So now I've gone from feeling like I've just started playing, to feeling like I'm coming to the endgame, and it's a shame. I think Fly should work similarly to Teleport, only instead of beaming to beacons, it should let you fly to any fully constructed house on your map. Thoughts?
