Profile Page Update and Going Social

Posted 5 months ago by Johan

Heeey, how ya'll feeling? Are you guys still enjoying your holiday? It's time for a new update.

A new section has been added to your profile page, where you and others are able to see all of your creations on the Pokecreator. Just as an example, go ahead and check out Kittyliu's exquisite collection and start drooling. Oh and by the way, she just turned 14 yesterday so congratulations once again.

It is planned to add more things to everyone's user profiles later, the most important one being trophies. That way, we can finally start handing out trophies for things like the Pokecreator, Who's That Pokemon, random competitions and more. I'm really sorry that we haven't been able to progress enough in this department.

Squirtle sunglasses We're soon also going social! By this, I mean that we'll start to include social media into more features of this website. Here's how our Twitter and Facebook page will look like. Some minor social features will first be added to the Pokecreator and then we'll gradually progress from there.

Speaking of the Pokecreator, the comments section is set to be removed. Just as shinysharpedo clearly witnessed, there were just too many low quality comments on there. Even though it had much to do with moderators not being able to remove comments, I feel like the commenting section isn't useful. Few people left constructive criticism. To those that did, there's really no incentive for the creator to improve their creation because it's already approved. Instead of commenting, the new alternative would be to simply PM the creator.

It's been going well with the Pokemon fusions, so far there have been over 300 submissions.

Ok then, that's it! That's all I had for this time, I'm sure we'll be in touch again soon.

Evolution and Pokemon fusions

happy Pokemon

Hope everyone has enjoyed their Christmas! Two new updates are out now.

The Catch Pokemon feature has been changed a bit, allowing you to drag and drop Pokemon between your party and box. Pokemon can now also be evolved. To identify Pokemon that are ready to evolve, look for the flashing ones. For now, Pokemon that can evolve two times (like Bulbasaur) have their evolution levels set at 50 (into Ivysaur) and 100 (into Venusaur). Pokemon that can only evolve one time (like Ekans), evolve at level 50.

The second feature is a new upcoming one, where we can submit Pokemon splices and fusions. The goal is to create a searchable library of them. Someone should be able to view different sprites that have been created from fusing Charizard with something else, for instance. Click here to go to the submission page.

I hope everyone continues having a happy and safe holiday. Be on the lookout for two new topics about trophy submissions and spriting guides on the forums.

Happening next week and the future

Posted 8 months ago by Johan

Whenever you want to do something well, you always have to find a motivation for it. I've found that motivation for Pokestadium.

For those of you who were here, you will remember the wonderful moments we shared on Pokestadium about a year ago. Many fellow members were active, helpful and cooperative. So much that we even managed to convert trolls, such as dd1000, into regular members. In other words, we really felt like a community.

But unfortunately, due to my absence this summer, Pokestadium has lost some of that magic. My motivation now is to rebuild Pokestadium once again, so that we can all experience the wonderful moments that we used to share.

As the first steps towards reaching this goal, the Moderators will be updating the forum rules next week. We will also be more strict in making sure that the rules are followed. Everyone will also have the opportunity of contributing to Pokestadium's future projects. I will also post more on the forums and make sure to answer all your PMs.

Who's That Pokemon

Parts of Pokestadium may appear messy

Zoroark

Yes, folks. Zoroark is lurking around on our website again, creating layout illusions. If a page appears strangely, it's completely not my fault! Can someone help me find this prankster so it stops confusing all our visitors?

Jokes aside, due to the new layout of Pokestadium and because I wanted to release the front page and Who's That Pokemon sooner, I had to come up with a quick solution to the layout of sections like the Pokecreator. These layouts will be fixed in the upcoming weeks.

We've had quite a few updates over the past 2 - 3 weeks. Although it's really fun, we can't move forward too quickly. Some older pages need to be updated and potential bugs need to be fixed. The programming codes that make Pokestadium possible also have to be tidied.

So remove your seat belts and relax, because we won't be speeding so fast in the upcoming week or two! Perhaps even start doing some homework instead of blaming your Poochyena?

Who's That Pokemon released

Who's That Pokemon

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls! It is my pleasure to announce the release of our Who's That Pokemon game. Everyone can play 20 rounds of it every day and gain bonus experience for your Pokemon.

For the time being, the game is still not in an advanced state yet. But I think that it's better to release a simpler version of something sooner and gradually improve it, rather than taking a long time to release an advanced version. Most of the time you even end up never releasing it.

So have fun with the new release, brag a little about your score and suggest improvements that you'd like to see in a future version of this game on the forums.
