First, let me just say the new tumblr edit thing is fugly and I hate it.
But second… Due to the fact that I, unfortunately, have a real life and have no idea what is actually happening with the Ponymon project, I’ve decided to set this tumblr up on a unique email and have it be run by the entire ponymon group, rather then just one person. That way, you can get updates directly from...
Anonymous asked: Do you have a set list of 'Things That Will Be Done By The Next Alpha Version', or do you just throw in whatever's done when you feel like releasing a new version?
cyberpwn3 asked: this is probably a noob question. what are the main differences between dusk and dawn and are there any benefits to playing one before the other?
Anonymous asked: If I used cheats in the game to go to other places and do things that I couldn't have done without cheating, will it screw with the saving in any way? I really don't want to start a new game.
kaedegames asked: I started playing this on my youtube, and I am wondering is it still getting updated frequently? I am really enjoying it and it is the first Pokemon-ish game I ever played
Anonymous asked: i went into the nursery on route 5 and i put one of my ponymon in it but the minute the guy was done talking the game froze! what do i do? i hadn't saved the game to recently and i don't really want to restart the game from where i last saved.... what do i do?
Anonymous asked: How close are you guys to releasing the next version? Sorry if a lot of people asked this already I'm just wondering because I found this game a couple of days ago.
Anonymous asked: whats the date for the next version of the alpha?
So, I am alive
Sorry I’ve been AWOL for so long, but I caught the bug everyone’s been getting and I’ve been dealing with getting an apartment and starting classes again and all kinds of other real life BS, and I just didn’t want to deal with any internet drama on top of things.
I’m gonna play catch up a bit tonight, but I may not get to everyone tonight. Plus, I’ll be honest,...
zorua-poni asked: So I got a Derpy, but every time she levels at this point, my game crashes. Is this a bug, or is there a coded evolution on said level (I think it's 24, its been a while since I played) that isn't part of the game at this time, or am I just unlucky or something?

on occasion, the move Giggle will cause my Ponymon to slide left off the screen similar to the effect of the Pokemon move Roar instead of having the red descending zigzags representing a decrease in attack, only for it to reappear when the visual effect of Giggle would normally end. it’s not anything big, nor does it happen too frequently, but it still seems worth at least being aware...
Anonymous asked: I downloaded an emulator and got the game working. But then I got stuck right after pressing start. All I get is a screen telling me FlutterYay is a programmer, keeping me stuck there unable to get on with the game. I Can reset and what the start again, but it's the same thing as soon I get to the start screen and want to get started playing. What am I doing wrong?
shootingstarsafterdark asked: I'm a huge MLP and pokemon fan so I couldn't help myself from squeeing in delight when I realised this game existed. Now, I only have one problem... I don't know how to make the game play on my computer after I downloaded it. I haven't tried games on my computer like this before... Is there something else I need to download first to make the game work? Thank you for your time
Anonymous asked: Will the different ponymons be like different pokemon types or are they all the basic type?
Anonymous asked: South of Philydelphia, I'm unable to get into the guardhouse that actually allows me into the underground passageway to go to the game's version of Vermillion. There are a row of bushes that are environmental pieces, not ones that are able to be cut. I checked both versions and this issue is there, yet in the regular Firered/LeafGreen there is no such thing. Have you changed something in...
Anonymous asked: In the beginning of the game, a man says they are selling socks at the Mart. Will you add socks later in the game, or did you put him there to say gibberish?

Made some changes
Download link, wikia link, and faq page all linked to on the main tumblr page now. Now everyone can stop asking me where to download the game, or how to install it.
But no, seriously, stop it. We have readmes and FAQ pages for a reason.
Also: the next person to ask me when something happens in the normal course of the game (where the legendary birds/Wonderbolts are, when can you revive...
Anonymous asked: I keep trying to enter the game, but it won't open. It keeps bringing me to a web-page with links about scanners for my pc. WHY WON'T IT OPEN?????!!!!!!!!!!! 0~0
Anonymous asked: Quick question. I got bored and used cheats to leave Fillydelphia and went to Ponyville, and on the way I found a house. On the inside was a guy saying he would give me a BLINKIEPIE for a TRIXIE. I, of course, was a fool and accepted. The visual sprite (and name) was for MIMIEN. So, that being said; will I have to start over from the beginning since BLINKIPIE isn't complete, or will...
Things be happening
Figure I owe you guys some actual news from the inside… Work on Ponymon is progressing, we’re currently ironing out some remaining bugs from 0.3 as well as some dialogue issues, but we’re looking at getting 0.35 out to you all sometime in the very near future.
From what I understand, (I can’t find my non-cheat saves, so I have to start from scratch) the new alpha goes to...
Anonymous asked: If it is impossible to get F VINYL or F OCTAVIA until later updates, are the sprites finished, or will that be done with the update allowing you to get it?
Anonymous asked: I'm not sure if this is a glitch or not, but no matter what I do I can't catch Roseluck, even when she only had some three HP left. Is this a glitch or is she just way to hard to catch? (I'm using Dawn version)

A bit about me.
So, there seems to be some confusion for people as to who I am and what I do for this project. Well, I’m Tomato, one of the game’s sprite artists. I’m the guy who made all those silly little icons that show up in the menu and in the ponymon boxes. I also helped put together a rough estimation of what we’ll be doing for Generation 2 of ponymon, and I’ve been with the...

Anonymous asked: I couldn't figure out how to find current issues or how to report bugs normally, but that's just me. My problem is that I took Doctor Whooves Lvl 11 to a daycare by Fillydelphia and it faded out and wouldn't come back on. This only happened when I told the guy inside to raise the Doctor Whooves and then came back to talk to him. This has happened twice.

Anonymous asked: I keep hearing about some kind of Anarchy version... could you clear this up for me? Should I be interested in this?

Gameloft accounts
I know this isn’t really a ponymon related thing, but I’m really stuck on the gameloft pony app, and I could really use more hearts. Like, a LOT of hearts. Like, I only JUST got enough for Zecora TODAY, and I have been playing for months.
Here’s my account (as well as a friend’s… he’s in a similar state):

For anyone who saw the spriter application post before I edited it, I’ve added my email so you can send me your application. Sorry if I confused anyone.
Anonymous asked: when do you think the next version of ponymon will be coming out?
So here's the tentative plan.
Ok, so. Chaos has dropped out of ponymon (he’s still doing sprites, so he might do a few here and there for the game, but he’s not officially tied to the project anymore), which means that we need some sprite talent to fill the gap.
Now, I am by no means the project head, so anything I say is subject to being overruled by Cobalt or Flutter. However, since I’m kind of the only...

connell-crocker asked: I noticed a bug where, when you evolve F Doctor at Lvl 22, it jumps up to lvl 23 right afterwards without having to train.
Anonymous asked: Will we have to restart our saves anytime soon? Or can we just load our old save into the new version?
So... big news, I guess.
So Chaos just stepped down from being the primary sprite artist on Ponymon. I’m not going to lie to everyone, this is NOT a good thing for the project… Flutteryay might have been our primary coder/scripter, but Chaos was the heart of the project since Duskshine left.
Now, before anyone FREAKS THE FUCK OUT, this is by no means the end of this project. I know a few good sprite artists...
