Pokémon Acanthite Forums

While on the road trips to and from Florida, I was playing Monster Hunter Freedom Unite. I was playing until my PSP died and so I grabbed my SP and played a little Pokemon and then, the idea came.
Monster Hunter and Pokemon. Now, this is just a game idea that I can't actually follow through with because of my lack of tools and knowledge. I spent a few hours thinking how this would work. It would be playing Pokemon with MH creatures. I thought of a few basic ideas such as the typing. I'm thinking the monsters would have a species as type1 and an element as type2. I have a list of the species and possible types thus far.
Specie list: Herbivore, Neopteron, Carapaceon, Piscine, Pelagus, Bird Wyvern, Wyvern(or flying wyvern), Pseudo Wyvern(Tigrex, etc.), Leviathan and Elder Dragon.
Type list: Fire, Water, Ice, Thunder and Dragon. These are the official MH elements. Here's the possible extra elements: Earth, Wind, Light and Poison.

This an idea that may never actually become anything, but it sounds awesome. I don't think I forgot anything, but go ahead and ask questions and critique.

So, you are fighting sweet little pokémon with swords?
Did I get that straight?

Ah man that would go over SUPER! Just imagine.... Charizard rampaging through a volcano while you chase after it... Setting a Shock trap to see a Dragonite stop its Hyper Beam and step right into it... Yaeh, that would be the best game EVAR

no, you've got it backwards, although that would be rather cool as well. I meant playing pokemon with MH creatures. You would capture the monsters and battle with them. Something like that.

xD Fail LOL. That would be freakin sweet as well. Lesse... A wild Qurepeco appeared! Go, Aptonoth! Wild Qurepeco used Flint Flame! Its Super Effective! Aptonoth fainted...

You've got it right there, that's what I meant. That's the idea.

I'm not deep enough into Monster Hunter to participate on this pro talk. xP

But it sounds sweet to me.

Well, you're not too far away from your idea. I mean, you have a sprite of Tigrex!

But seriously, that sounds like a cool game. But really, I think any game put into the mechanics of a Pokémon game is pretty cool.

Unfortunately, I don't have the means to make it. So, for now, it's just an idea, which is why I didn't put this in the game development thread. I think I'll toy with rpg maker on this. Anyone who wants to help, or even make it themselves, is welcome.

Update. I am using Pokestarter for this, but I don't know how to add/change/edit the types. If I can figure that out, I should be ready to move this to the games and projects forum.

(Edit) Never mind. I may tinker around a bit, but this will probably never become a serious project. Unless I suddenly get really good at coding and spriting, it's not gonna happen. This idea is dying and I'm not going to revive it unless I actually have something. I think I'll just go back to messing with the Warcraft 3 triggers.
