The 524 is for 524 Stone Crabs

I'm not quite sure what to do with the negative space between the logo and the "press enter" box. I'd like to know what you guys think because I don't have a lot of ideas for what the in-game title screen is supposed to look like.
I see Shredax! Can't wait to see all the new sprites when you're ready to show them.

You could do something similar to what Pokémon Red did with their title screen and have a Pokémon trainer sprite next to a shifting display of random Pokémon sprites (I would post a YouTube video of the title screen I'm talking about but I'm on a phone right now). A neat twist to that idea would to make the trainer sprite shift every so often since you have 8 different possible trainers.

That was actually my original idea, but as I'm still a bit inept when it comes to scripting, I wouldn't know how to do it with this engine.
Have you checked if there already exists a script that can do that?
Is it just me, or is the title off-centre? *cringes* >.<

I think you can add a silhouette of the main legendary there, like how Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald did. I mean, there is a main legendary right?

Or you can move the RMN logo (the hexagon) down to the negative space. Afterwards, centre the title and the like.
The negative space looks fine to me, aren't the pokemon games like that?

I agree that adding a legendary to that space would make it look cooler. It looks fine with the empty space though.

Yeah I totally agree. You should put the two legendary pokemons on the right and left and than put Antipode in the middle.

Thanks for the feedback, guys!

I'm going to try to get help from Pokemon Wiki's forum page to see if it's possible to make the title screen similar to Red/Blue, since the default only allows you to put up a still image, and I think an R/B type of title would be nice for showcasing the Pokemon that appear in the game.

If that fails, then the lengendary spotlight wouldn't be bad either.

Want me to just do it?

If you can, then sure.
OMG! My Pokemon is right above the 'Press Enter' on the title!

I mean, you can barely make it out since you can see only the top half, but still.
I would say that maybe putting the RMN diamond there, under the RMN version text. It's just that I feel that it's out of place right now, to the left of the Pokémon title.

I have an idea, put the 3 infant starters in front, and behind them the final evolution of each in shadow, as such:


OR something like this to spice things up a bit:


OR transparent shadows:


Question: does the background move? If it doesn't, it should :p

EDIT: or make it randomly pick a starter and it's shadow (I think transparent looks the best) everytime we get to the title screen.

I would have more makerscore If I did things.

I DEFINITELY love all three starters with the transparent shadows of their evolutions. I'd prefer it located in the center, but if it ends up being placed at the side, perhaps keeping the title in the center and putting something else on the other side would be good. Perhaps a randomized legendary, or perhaps the Trainer sprites? The ones that you choose in the beginning? That would introduce more than just who you start WITH but who you can start AS as well.

You mean like this:

With the other background elements in place, it's kind of distracting to have the shadows transparent like that. I really like your ideas, though, and since I haven't really received a follow-up from Fomar I might just run with it.

Yeah.

EDIT: Myeah, I was thinking about the background thing...

I still think the background should have all pokémons and move from left to right (or right to left) so we get to see them all in the title screen.

I can increase the transparency to make it less distracting.

Got to go now, I'll be back tomorrow, hopefully I'll also be able to provide feedback on the move changes :)
I would just say that, if you're going to put the three starters like that, maybe use other RMNmons at the background, to showcase more specimens or something.
