Pokemon Yin White: Prologue

Spoiler

First things first:



Always.



I'm accepting votes! Make sure it's a pretty name. :3



Taste the DS processing power.



WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!
(did I make this joke during my Nuzlocke?)



You guys can pick my starter too!

You can choose: Tepig, Snivy, or Oshawott!

I'm just gonna chose Tepig for now.




...what?



Yeah fighting inside sounds like a great idea, Miss I-Chose-the-Type-Disadvantage.



...what?!

Bold all votes! I'm calling it tomorrow so we can hurry down this rabbit hole.

Edited by deep, 17 September 2012 - 10:12 PM.

[Sir Deimos]

Name: Shedona

SNIVY!

[Ikiosho]

Name: Jessie Lyn

SNIVY

[Twinrova]

Name: Dicksmash McIronclit

Starter: OSHAWOTT!

[deep]

I think if I pick the guy, I get Gen III starters, and if I pick the girl, I get Gen I-- if that changes any votes.

[Kisseena]

You should pick the cutest pokemans. Because cute is always better.

And Melody. Because I like that name.

[Twinrova]

I think if I pick the guy, I get Gen III starters, and if I pick the girl, I get Gen I-- if that changes any votes.

Ok, if you get Gen I, then I pick Squirtle. Of course.

[deep]

Actually, because I'm a girl, Oshawott = Squirtle. But you're gonna have to beat out Sean and Jake's votes for Snivy/Bulbasaur.

[Twinrova]

Fine I'll vote again I vote Oshawott/Squirtle

[JRPomazon]

Doritos

I don't care which, but Doritos

[deep]

Doritos

I don't care which, but Doritos

hahaha. Loud and clear.

[Sir Deimos]

Damn. I was so excited when everyone else was ignoring character limits for the name. Doritos is totally better than Shedona though.

Pokemon Yin White - Chapter 1 Proper



You guys and your character-limit breaking names.



Smugleaf. Let's do this.





So Bianca gets...



Ah, yes, obviously...



This hack also introduces base stat changes for most, if not all Pokemon. Almost every stat is raised, but in Treecko's case, he's more specialized toward special sweeping at the cost of special defense. The changes aren't vast right now, but compare Vanilla to Yin:

HP - 40
ATK - 45
DEF - 35
SPA - 65
SDF - 55
SPD - 70

45 (+5)
52 (+7)
43 (+8)
78 (+13)
55 (0)
89 (+19)



Movepools have been changed as well. Each Pokemon learns roughly 23 moves via level-up. Any additions are moves the hack's creator felt were logical.

Cheren gets a Chimchar.



Also, the battle text has been changed! Pokemon suddenly feels like BlazBlue.



Turns out Mom ran a mono-water team in her youth. One of the more viable mono teams, really. Water as a type gets mixed with a wide variety of others!



We get to fish! Early! And not just for crappy late-bloomer fish!



NAH.







Fast forward past the catching tutorial:



Ten Premier Balls. Kickass.



I wonder if I'll need them? All the encounter tables have been drastically altered.









Fine.





Third time's the charm, right?



Meh! I could rock a Shiftry.





Braviary all day any day. But I'll catch it I suppose.





Finally someone who fits my naming scheme.



Who's next?






...oh god it's using Rollout and killing everyone!



At this point I've got 4 dead dudes, and Guac, who is of course likely to be incinerated when Rollout wraps up.

So I throw Pokeballs like my life depends upon it.



Phew.




Now we're cooking with fire_{ohgoshI'msorrythatwasworsethanmostKissyjokes}

So, now my team's technically full, and I'm running back to my house to heal because we are so screwed.

Cue random encounter. Cue pants-shitting terror.



...



This was a HARD catch, but he's safely in my PC box... which I can't access yet.



If he learns a move called Heatwave, I'm going to have so much fun.

Alright. Before I move ahead with the plot, I wanna check out Mom's Rod.

I think Verde's gonna be my token water Pokemon for a while though, unless something particularly awesome jumps out at me.



Nifty.



I have never fished this early in a Pokemon game. Actually, in the past few games I haven't ever fished. I'll be sure to dip my rod into upcoming fishing holes though.



Neat! Mantyke has a shit load of special defense. We're talking over 100, and this is a babby Pokemon. However, I can't catch a Remoraid yet, so meh.

The water hole also allegedly has Horsea, Psyduck, Corsola, and Chinchou, but all I kept catching were Mantykes.

I sacrificed them to Verde.


---

Up next, once I get PC access, looks like I'm rollin with Treecko, Darumaka, Charmander, and Sentret.

If we've got requests for team mates from what you've seen so far, though, lemme know.

[Sir Deimos]

This hack is marvelous. I'm intrigued in ways I shouldn't be.

[Veteran]

I lack superlatives to convey my mood appropriately.

Pokemon Yin White - Chapter 2

When we last left our intrepid hero...



Yawn.



N doesn't like my systematic oppression of Pokemon.



Eelektross is a bastard of a Pokemon to fight. I may have to get one myself.

But I'm getting about 60 levels ahead of myself.



"I swear the fish I caught was THIS big!"

Fake Out is a new attack in Treecko's level-up move pool. I dig it. I believe the Japanese name for the attack is Fureeu Damageru.



He's tough but I take him down. And that's all of N right now. I forsee him not being so easy from now on.

On Route 2, there's a bevy of new Pokemon to catch.



Rattatas have Tail Whip, Focus Energy (which works correctly in this game), and Quick Attack.

They will use all of them, every battle, and if it takes you more than 3 turns to take one down, expect mass casualties. Enemy AI, even in random encounters, is strategic. Wild Pokemon will prioritize buffs and debuffs, and they will hurt you.



Darumaka is a glass cannon, but he hits hard. He loses a chunk of special attack in this hack, but gains a little special defense, which is honestly a nice trade, but his speed is unaltered. In a hack where most stats are raised, this makes him effectively even slower than before.

HP - 71
ATK - 94
DEF - 49
SPA - 25
SDF - 53
SPD - 50

70 (+1)
90 (+4)
45 (+4)
15 (-10)
45 (+8)
50 (0)



Charmander, on the other hand, is a blank slate. He can fit more roles than Darumaka, and functions pretty well as a mixed sweeper. The hacker keeps his stats mostly even, though the lack of a boost to special attack allows his physical power to equal his special power even more closely.

HP - 45
ATK - 58
DEF - 45
SPA - 60
SDF - 55
SPD - 71

39 (+6)
52 (+6)
43 (+2)
60 (0)
50 (+5)
65 (+5)



Interestingly enough, all trainers have access to every generation's Pokemon too. This means that each and every trainer battle in the game has been lovingly redone, not just our rivals and gym leaders. Kind of impressive.

Spoiler: I burn the shit out of that Combee.

What else is in the grass?



Heyyy. I'll take that.

Welcome to the team, 12PM Tacos! (thanks, Jerp!)



Poochyena's early moveset isn't different, he just learns his attacks a little earlier. He gets Bite at level 8, as opposed to 14. This means that before the first gym, you're fighting a fast Pokemon that can buff its attack stat, and then hit you with a STABed attack that causes flinching.

Picture me getting my ass kicked my Rattatas, Poochyenas, and a couple unhittable Ralts that spam Double Team. The grass also contains Skitty, Purrloin, Pidove, and Shinx.

Then picture me running to the next town to use the Pokecenter with a team full of half-dead limp bodies.

Actually, you don't even have to use your imagination! Here!



Yep.




Picture me instantly kicking myself for not remembering this battle.

That is Bianca's Ralts up there, by the way.

The fight goes like this:

Salsa uses Defense Curl to power up Rollout.

Ralts uses 4 Double Teams in a row.

I get Ralts to critical, Bianca heals it full.

I get Ralts to critical in one hit with my fourth Rollout in a row. Somehow they aren't missing!

Bianca heals it to full.

Rollout misses. Ralts uses Double Team again.

I throw Incinerates at Ralts and he avoids them all. With 6 Double Teams under his belt, he steamrolls Salsa. Then he steamrolls Chili. He's on fire, so I cool him down with Guac.

The hard part's over. Bianca's only got Piplup left.



Piplup's a resilient mofo, and takes 3 Absorbs to before he's critical. Bianca heals him full, and I knock him back down.

Phew.

I skip the gym for now, and focus on grinding more than a high school dance. Baddies are mopping the floor with me.



Spoinks are surprisingly difficult. This one wrecked 12PM Tacos despite the type advantage.

This trainer also has a Taillow that hit me for 1/3 of my health with a quick attack, and came equipped with Moxie (raises attack one level for every Pokemon it knocks out). It hit hard.

Her third Pokemon?




Squirtle!

This fucking Squirtle one-shotted two of my Pokemon. He must be descended from Showsni's Squirtle. Guac sucked up his juices like a sponge though.

I grabbed Panpour from the guy in the Dreamyard, but that's boring!

LET'S FISH!



I love being able to fish this early. It's such a novelty.

I tried the fountian. No dice.



I play mind games with my opponents. I pretend to be a slavering, homless crack addict to lower their guard.

: "LIVE AND LET DIE! GO! 12PM TACOS!"

I decide to capture this Frillish. Even though he's Gen V, you usually can't get one until way late in the game.

He is christened Blue Cheez.



Further fishing yields:



Luvdisc!



And Finneon!

Let me pause for a moment to talk about Finneons. This pond is full of level 7 Finneons with Charm and Water Gun. Charm lowers attack by two stages, and Water Gun has been altered to also lower special defense, often. Finneons also hold a berry that reduces super effective damage. They can soften you up really fast, and also mitigate the damage you do to them.

This is, again, a level 7 enemy before the first gym. This hack is mean, but I love it.

For the sake of progres, here's Chili still being average at everything:



I'm in the middle of a training montage as we speak.

Tomorrow, WE TAKE THE FIRST GYM!

Edited by deep, 16 July 2012 - 12:59 AM.

[deep]

Chapter 3 - Training Montage

Okay, so I cheated. I peeked at the first gym leader's levels. And I'm glad I did. Level 16s! For reference, the Pokemon outside town are 5-9, and Gen V introduced diminishing EXP returns for picking on Pokemon lower than you. That means grinding in fast forward.

First off, quick evolutions are a cheap source of stats!



Can't argue with a level 14 evolution.



Yes, please! Even though Lombre is a special sweeper, Razor Leaf gets STAB and crits often enough.



Sweet, sweet stats. As you can see, Lombre also learned Nature Power at level 14. Yeah, two attacks in one level.
Time!

Nature Power changes attack, power, accuracy, and type based upon environmental context. In gyms, you're getting a Tri Attack, which is a respectable 90 damage that draws on the special stat. Out in the grass, you're getting Seed Bomb, which is 80 attack but gets STAB. Verde hits like a truck when I'm in the grass, and like a tinier truck when I'm indoors.

Regrettably, Nature Power becomes Earthquake on "sand," which also counts for most of the roads you walk between towns. I believe Earthquake gets anti-STAB from both of Verde's types, and is a physical, so it's definitely neutered in his case.



The fruits of my grinding. I'm dropping Salsa after this gym. He's too squishy, and I've got a Charmander!

Actually, my mission before getting to the gym leader is to have a Charmeleon. Cue me starting all the following trainder battles with Chili. Cue this not going great.

First off, I need to bathe in Cheren's sweet, sweet EXP in the Trainer School.



OH HOW ORIGINAL. LET ME GUESS, DOUBLE TEAM 6 TIMES, HURT MY TEAM DEEPLY?

YEAH BIANCA DID THAT IT WORKED OUT GREAT.
_{(No, really, it did. Don't do that.)}

Charmander puts a sizeable dent into Ralts.



Cheren bangs that dent right out. While I've spent 4 turns damaging Ralts, he's put in 4 Double Teams, and now his health is back. I have some bad luck with Confuse Ray.

It was too gruesome to show what happened to Chili.



Nature Power connects, but Ralts tears Verde up.



And then this happens. I swear I'm just trying to spread EXP around.

Eventually, I give up. Ralts' huge gross head fits perfectly in 12PM Tacos' mouth.



And gosh, does switching to a Dark type just as Ralts gets off a Confusion feel so good.

Chimchar?



What Chimchar?

Also Cheren wants to bang my mom or something.





Let's repress that with violence!



No, I really want to grind on higher leveled Pokemon on Route 3, but some OLD GUY IS BLOCKING THE PATH UNTIL I GET THE BADGE.



Soylent Green is Pokemon!



Each of the gym trainers have a Fire, Grass, and Water type.



Krabby! I love Krabbys. Krabbies?



Don't love em enough apparently.

Time!

Treecko has Fake Out and Bullet Seed. Even though he's primarily a special attacker, and these are both physical attacks, this combo liquidates most opponents. I had the opportunity to learn Razor Leaf, but I turned it down. Let me break that decision down: Fake Out is a free 50 damage attack because he outspeeds everything right now, and in this hack, Bullet Seed is now a base 35 power attack that hits 2-5 times-- it also gets stab. That means each hit of bullet seed has 52 attack power. If it hits twice, that's 104. If it hits all 5 times? 260. Bullet Seed is finna fuck you up.



This Bellsprout took an Ember to the face and survived it with over half his health to spare. She's hardy, but again, Chili is just a proficient attacker, not a good one. Plus, Verde and Guac have evolved already.



I can taste that sweet sweet Charmeleon steez.

The next trainer's got a Horsea.



It doesn't go well for it.



I really gotta get rid of Blue Cheez. Right now its moveset is Bubble, Mega Drain, Tickle and Toxic. My battle strategy is attrition. But stuff is just too damn strong, and Blue's attacks don't do enough damage.



HOW DO YOU BURN A GHOST MADE OF WATER.

I give up and go grind out a little more EXP.



Damn right. I'm gonna eff this gym up.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE.



You mean do I want my Chili to rock Metal Claw, DragonBreath, and Smokescreen on top of Ember?

Why yes, yes I do.

----

Next time, I fight a color-coordinated waiter.

Edited by deep, 17 July 2012 - 10:26 AM.

[Sir Deimos]

These trainer battles are brutal. Not sure if want. Man, I can't wait to see the Elite Four. I wonder if a Krookodile will still be more than enough for the majority of those fights.

[deep]

Chapter 4 - The Trio Badge

So the schtick with the first gym leader is that you get the one whose type has an advantage over your starter. It's a nice tutorial for new players. Not like back when I was kid. In Red and Blue, nobody told you shit, Brock and Misty were the first two gym leaders, and if you took Charmander the game told you to get fucked.

That last part is one thing the original games and this hack have in common.



You're not Chili!

This is Chili:



_{(image credit: hornean. You uh... well... good job taking his tail into account with the cape. You know I don't think he would've worn a cape. His tail would scorch it all the time.)}



That's our line!



So Chili's got four Pokemon in the hack. The first in an Eevee.

I throw a DragonBreath at it, which paralyzes it. Things are looking good very quickly.



Look how smug Chili looks. He knows he's in control of this fight.

This was the last time this fight went well.

Time!

Full disclosure: I restarted this fight 3 times. My first time, that Eevee swept my entire team by itself. While paralyzed.

See Eevee's health bar up there? That's how much damage DragonBreath does. It's got 60 attack power. I also have Ember, which with 40 attack power, is 100% equivalent. One burns, one paralyzes, but I can't do more damage to Eevee than that.

I tried playing the Metal Claw that raises attack game, but it does less damage and isn't a 100% hit.

This motherfucking Eevee spams Work Up, which raises both attack and special attack, then uses Quick Attack to insert itself before even the speediest of Pokemon I have.

Chili (the gym leader) will give Eevee at least two potions, so after I whittle down Eevee's health with 3-4 attacks, it has 3-4 Work Ups under its belt and a potion to heal all its HP. Cue 6 OHKO Quick Attacks.

Observant readers may be thinking, "But he's got a ghost-type!"



I thought that too!

After I whittled down Eevee a second time with Chili, I let him die to bring out Blue Cheez with a free turn.

I hit him with a Bubble, which put him into critical.

I have this battle locked down, I think, and then I make an unfortunate discovery.

Eevee has bite.



Blue Cheez is disposed of in one shot, and Chili pumps his second potion into Eevee.

This little shit is like a gremlin with Bane's injection set-up and a tank full of water.

Luckily, Lombre can dish out Tri Attack for serious damage, and he's now faster than a paralyzed Eevee.



Chili's second Pokemon is Pansear.



Things are much easier when I have a type advantage.



Ponyta has Flame Charge, which gives it a ton of speed. Given his half grass typing, Verde doesn't resist the damage either. We have a shootout.



I experience the criticalest of hits.

But I gotta switch Verde out for Chili's last Pokemon. That's probably fatal burn damage.



Chili's final Pokemon is Numel.

This fucking Numel is faster than 12PM Tacos naturally. He has Sunny Day up, so it might be an ability he has? Either way, it's not good.



He then proceeds to ramp up his speed even more.



The sun is setting on my prospects. Guac's really my only viable fighter, but he's pure Grass.

He's speedy, but this Numel's got speed buffs.

Nevertheless, I put him in.

I choose my attack.












SUCK IT.



YEAH THAT WAS KIND OF THE PROBLEM.

Anyway, he gives me Work Up. I immediately give it to fucking everyone on my team.

I also get a present.









Wanna know the twist ending?

Spoiler

Cut is now a Grass-type attack with 60 attack power. On Verde, it gets STAB, and is pretty much on par with Razor Leaf.
Double Spoiler:

Spoiler

Flash is now a really good attack. But you'll have to wait and see.

---

Next time we visit the Dreamyard!

[JRPomazon]

Well damn. This game makes things all wibbly wobbly.

[Veteran]

Great stuff. Did the hack make Tri Attack physical? It's normally special. Excellent change to Cut.

[deep]

Actually, Vet, I must've misspoke. Tri Atttack is still special, why is why Verde wields it with such ferocity. It has been given 90 power versus 80, too.

edit: Yeah, I totally wrote the wrong thing. Good catch.

Edited by deep, 17 July 2012 - 10:26 AM.

Chapter 5 - The Dreamyard



Cut is surprisingly good. I give it to Verde, so he's packing Water Gun, Cut, Nature Power, and Leech Seed.



Nope! Just bathing in nostalgia and waiting to see what childhood memories are dredged up next!



He says while kicking a Munna to get it to squirt out Dream Juice.

Plasma Mooks use different Pokemon.



I don't actually have a good answer for Electric types.



Aside from fuchsia beams of wyrmfire.
_{(Also, clutch screenshoot of Electrike looking like he's shooting a purple mouth laser.)}



They also pack Onix! (This Metal Claw, despite super effectivity, did like no damage. Onix tanks physical damage like its his job.)

Because I was battling on fast forward/cruise control here, it took me a little while to realize that this Flaafy, spamming Flash, was actually hurting me.



But I'm still leaving y'all in the dark about that.



Tynamos are hardy. Salsa was caught in a Rollout and got beated up.

Now that that's over, let's see what the local wildlife is like.



This game throws items at you in clusters of 3, 5, and 10.

Also, it gives you evolution items really, really early. I kind of love that.

First encounter?!



Nifty. Hypno hits hard, but I don't catch Drowzee.



Is this normal? I give it to Blue Cheez in a vain attempt to make him useful.



Vulpix animates so nicely.

Getting some sweet, sweet levels here too.



I also realize about 5 updates from now that I've had Water Stones since before the first gym, and could have had a Ludicolo by now.



YAWN. GEN V.

NEXT.



I vaguely consider this catch, wondering how I'm going to deal with the approaching Normal-type gym.





Slowpoke evolves to Slowking in this game when he learns Zen Headbutt. However, that's at level 34. I cannot wait that long in a hack that's taking pleasure in harming me often and with prejudice.

I feed it to Guac.



A caterpie, if you're into that kind of thing. A few trainers rock Kakunas that actually give me trouble. Poison Sting procs 70% of the time, and they've got Iron Defense. Can't say the same about Metapods, however.





On one of my more recent endgame teams, I've got a Tangrowth and a Magmortar, and holy crap, Magmortar.






I like Natu and Xatu. I think they're a fairly competent Pokemon that satisfies two niches on a Pokemon team.



I dump Salsa in favor of Ranchero, who actually starts out with Quick Attack, Wish, and Night Shade. I teach it Work Up. You'll notice it doesn't have a Flying or a Psychic attack out of the box.

Ranchero is not a very adept combatant.


As you can see, there's a handful of psychic types here and a few rarities. The encounter tables for every area packs about 10 Pokemon, but a lot of them have enough type redundancies that you can pick your favorite and move on.

Here you grab a Munna, a Slowpoke, a Natu, or a Meditite, and you get your Psychic fix.




Time to replace my water ghost with an awesome ghost!




The Dreamyard also had some Cherubis. The creator doesn't have an encounter list, however, so I'm not sure if there are any really rare gems that I missed.



Onward!

Next time, I rout a preschool!

[Sir Deimos]

Muthafuckin' Slowpoke.

The changes made to the game shouldn't fill me with as much whimsy as they do. All my fantasies are of the later levels. The idea of wild herds of Hitmonchan have me giddy.

[deep]

Wild herds of Hitmonchan have me giddy.

I can confirm that this happens. But I won't disclose when.

Chapter 6 - Bully Children; Acquire Pokemon

I drop off Gastly at the Poke Day Care because I don't feel like grinding him up to my team's levels.

There's a very good chance I will never remember to get him back.

Also there's a People Day Care next door.



GOOD THING THEY'RE WEARING HARD HATS COS I'MMA STOMP SOME HEADS

Actually, first up is their teacher. Y'know, first line of defense before I take out the small children.

She uses babby Pokemon.



Happiny has droves of HP and not a lot of attack. Blue Cheez has droves of HP and not a lot of attack.

I put Toxic on it. It's a slow, arduous battle (she also threw two Super Potions at Happiny), and somehow, I think Toxic's damage capped.

Next up is a Teddiursa who mercilessly tears Blue Cheez apart.



I had a couple of Work Ups enhancing my attack power, and that's all the damage I could muster. Blue Cheez hits with the force of a ghost jellyfish out of water... now that I phrase it like that it feels accurate.



Notice how my last screen was of Verde being called out? That Teddiursa, missing 2/5 of his health, took him down handily.

So with my first move, I take him down



handily.




I love Runny Nose Bear.

That's it. He needs two Embers to go down.



Azurill is her last Pokemon. It's making that face because it is sitting on its own damn tail. That's like sitting on your own love apples.




I wouldn't put it past this fucking game.


...I don't have any screenshots after this, so apparently this fight was not noteworthy.



I also beat this little shit's ass. But apparently he likes having his ass beat.



If you can stand this stone cold diss, this is a quick and vital source of healing for the next few areas.

Regular free healz in the field is a nice addition to Black and White.

Outside the Day Care, two toddlers introduce me to double battling.



Oh jeez Grass types and attacks GET OUT OF THERE BLUE CHEEZ



They also have Plusle and Minun, who are right bastards. And as I've said before, I've got no solution against electricity right now.



This is me learning through trial-and-error that Nature Power turns to Earthquake sometimes.



This is me being 2-for-2 on forgetting rival battles. I saw that item ball and made a bee-line.

Cheren's still got Ralts, and I'm not about to go through the whole Double Team forever BS.



So I'll make it so we never have to hit him! I'm a genius!







DON'T MAKE FUN OF ME



It begins.








I bit his ass.

Next up is Karrablast. He's gonna be a bitch to fight against when he evolves.



Scratch that. He's gonna be a bitch to fight now.

I bring in Verde to mop up.

Monferno's next. As Blue Cheez is dripping with a deadly toxin, I stick with Verde.



He throws a Flame Wheel at me. I throw a Water Gun at Monferno, banking on Verde's crazy special stat.



We are like two samurai warriors clashing in a midair strike. Both land.

Verde falls. Cheren gives his stupid fire monkey a potion.



Chili's DragonBreath is a wonderful Undo Button.

He smiles a curt, smug smile.









SON OF A BITCH



Welp, it's either Guac or Blue Cheez.











Sigh.

I throw a Bubble at Monferno. Because he's paralyzed, I get the first attack.





Luckily. Even though he's not dead, Cheren's out of potions.






I decide to congratulate him for almost taking me down











with a standing ovation.


NOW THAT THAT'S OVER, PLEASE ALLOW ME PASSAGE INTO THAT PATCH OF GRASS CHEREN. I MUST CHECK OUT THE WILD POKEMON THERE FOR AMUSEMENT, PROFIT AND SCIENCE.

Next time, I go spelunking.

[Veteran]

Wild Derps? I love this hack! And the more I see the more I wish there was a hard mode switch to the real games. Offset by a variety of wild Pokemon and helpful early items makes it look so fun. I'm looking at you, evolution stones.
