Bit prettier than previous version, more stuff added. There are tiny tiny pokemon swarming in that forest, but from this distance they look like white spot.
I disabled outline because seriously, until I'll have a pretty one working it looks better without one.
Enjoy.

Thanks again Mantis.
Swampert4Ever said, on August the 15th, 2008:
wow it looks awesome! and the little mudkips are soo cute =]
Mannequin said, on August the 16th, 2008:
From the looks of it I can see 2 mudkips.
It's looking really nice. A much bigger inprovement from the last pic.
Keep up the Good work ^_^

Terri an is choppy and years behind. Nobody will play this.
ManTis said, on August the 16th, 2008:
I wondered when first comment like that will appear if we would upload preprod screenshots. I guess I should be happy that it lasted so long.
gamefreak2kx said, on August the 16th, 2008:
Hey ManTis that last person who said no one would play this, probably doesn't know it's preprod-unpolished screenshot. Ignore him. The people on the forums know what it is and you have their full support and appreciation. Don't let that stupid comment make you feel bad.
By the way, regarding this screenshot:
It's very good. However, are these two different areas of n00b island? The narrow strip of land seems to indicate that these are two seperate areas joined by this strip... Anyways great screenshot. Rock on \m/
Ubiquinone said, on August the 16th, 2008:
Hmm yes. Different from the concept art. I won't know where I'm going, but that just adds to the fun of it. This looks so great, seriously. And I still can't get over Mudkip.
Ubiquinone said, on August the 16th, 2008:
oh, and I just now understood what No was saying. I was sitting here like "Who the fuck is Terri an and why is she choppy???"
Rujak said, on August the 16th, 2008:
Terri An *is* years behind. The sooner she ditches those 80's clothes, the better.
On topic, it's very exciting to see these screenshots. Personally, I would love to see a screenshot of a group of trainers getting ready to fight Groudon. But that's a bit far ahead. :P
No. said, on August the 17th, 2008:
I spaced it out wrong. I meant the Terrain was ugly.
The Terrain ;)
It is, very ugly. You know full well you won't be able to improve it.
This is how it will be produced people. Don't bother with it.
bezet said, on August the 17th, 2008:
No., you do realise this is just a "test terrain" and it will not look like this in the final version?
And stating "This is how it will be produced people. Don't bother with it.", that is, thing you don't have a fucking clew about and yet telling about it other people is just a perfect example of trolling.
T'ra.
No. said, on August the 17th, 2008:
You spelt "Clue" wrong, dear.
The terrain will look like that, you know it will.
I would laugh if this would ever be finished.
You know it never will be, so really, what's the point?
diablos_blade said, on August the 17th, 2008:
he came back?
i'm almost impressed.
he cares enough to come and revisit ^_^
on the other hand. Have you ever seen a game in pre-production before?
do you really think that Crysis looked that good from start to finish?
this is how games production generally goes, you get everything working BEFORE you start giving a damn whether it looks pretty or not.
frankly, im impressed they've even bothered texturing it for pre-production.
If it was me everything would be grey except the player models.
back onto the subject of praising ManTis though.
the shading is looking rather impressive so far, and networking seems to be up and running just fine too. a good solid grounding to start to actually add some gameplay =P
i'm impressed. have fun =D
bezet said, on August the 17th, 2008:
Typical troll. I'm not going to waste time on you any more.
But it's true, I've misspelled clue, probably because I was angry at you :*
Now go back to your sad life, where you have nothing better to do than posting irritating comments. Don't know, get laid or something?
ManTis said, on August the 17th, 2008:
To make all things clear: yes, this is a test level graphics. It wasn't made in level editor, it's just a mesh loaded straight from blender. For testing purposes.
There, so anybody who was wondering about that has their answer.
Ubiquinone said, on August the 17th, 2008:
No, you spelled "spelled" wrong, dear.
ManTis said, on August the 17th, 2008:
Next comment that will be discussing spelling will be erased.
Nate said, on August the 18th, 2008:
abcdefg lol
Anyways on the topic, this is awesome can't wait for the finished project.
Magmar101 said, on August the 19th, 2008:
lol this guy No is hilarious. I can care less how pretty the game is. I mean it cant be horrendous, but i would play it just like that anyway. Just take the Wii for example. The graphics are wack compared to the PS3 but wii sells a dump load more. Why? Because it's fun, and this game will be fun. So people will play DUH!
Fayt said, on August the 24th, 2008:
Me personally see no difference in the graphics between Wii and PS3. So I don't know why people are saying the Wii's graphics sucks when they look just like PS3, only thing I can tell is PS3 looks high-def, which the Wii can be high-def too with a high-def TV and the cables that you have to buy. Anyways on topic this is pretty good, looking better and better. I just hope my laptop isn't shitty by the time we can play.

Does this picture mean it's working, just not fully made and released yet?
Seph said, on August the 26th, 2008:
This actually looks like something my friends and I were discussing once. I googled Pokemon MMO to see if there were any in the works, and found this. I'm quite impressed with it. Keep up the good work!
Yes said, on September the 13th, 2008:
No u one Dumb motha Fucker u know this is like the only pokemon mmorpg soo STFU and realy im laffin my ass of lookin looking at u type u type like a Nerd go die freak assed mother fucker from hell mantis ROK ON!!
Lol said, on September the 14th, 2008:
No Yes, you're retarded. There are many other Pokemon MMOs.
Pokemon Global
Pokemon Cyrus
Pokemon World Online
All are lightyears ahead this one, and all of them have been in development for much less.
ZombieBear said, on November the 16th, 2008:
Well, I'm one of the main devs from Pokemon Global, the thing is, all of these mmos mentioned in the prior list, we're making 2d games, using sprites, the work done by the Ekaiyo team far exceeds the amount of work we've had to put into ours, since they're building a full shading engine, the entire game, and they have to create 3d models of everything that will be required in the game from scratch, and 3d modeling is a very extensive task. I've been following Ekaiyo since before it had a name, and am really impressed with the results that I've seen.
Love the screenshot, the cel-shading is absolutely beautiful, and I wish you the best of luck with the outlines, sometimes things one would expect to be simple turn out to be the biggest pains.

Chris said, on April the 9th, 2009:

Echizen Ryoma said, on June the 24th, 2009:
To "chris" and "no" first off, "No" you are a passive agressive fucktard Chris do you know what PreProd means? it means this is what they have right now, but is BEFORE PRODUCTION (IE it's not done yet)
Kamou said, on July the 24th, 2009:
Great job so far. Looking forward to post-PrePod. :D
Underlegend said, on August the 14th, 2009:
