Estimated time for next version?

It has been a while (and a few patches) since v4.x has released, and many are already done and ready for the last bit of the game...

So, is there a planned release date at the moment or is v5 going to be a long ways away?

Even if it's a while off, there are plenty of other pokemon fan games to get stuck into - just check out the section in the forums :3

Oh, I am well-aware of those. I just am curious just how much more of a wait there will be for v5, that's all.

I think they are hopeful to have it done soon, although soon is relative here. I think it was a couple of years in between 3.0 and 4.0 and the game has been in production for 7 years now. Basically, it will come when it comes.

I'm just kinda sad I got to this fan game rather late into the making of it. I've played a few ROM hacks and the likes before, but never stuck with them. This one however has really drawn me in with all of the fakemon and what not. So even if V5.0 is a good ways away, I will definitely be sticking around and trying to contribute when I can.

Exactly what I'm doing atm.

The competitive meta isnt going to shape itself =P

We are still missing the game's pseudo from it though...

The answer to your question is "eventually", we are working on it right now but there is a lot of new game content left to create, not to mention testing!

I could imagine, seeing as it is just you and JV working on the game as far as I know. However long it takes is fine really. I was just hoping to get a more concrete estimate seeing as v4.x seems pretty refined atm. (And there is one pokemon I want for my team that hasn't been released yet...)

Twitch and JV do most of the work, though us mods contribute a little bit to help out or lend ideas when needed. Also, forum user Kelodragon has been doing many new move animations, quite a few of which are in the current version! Psybeam's never looked so good.

Same with Moonblast...

I actually haven't seen Moonblast yet, but I've heard great things about it. I'm really looking forward to seeing it in action, haha.

Hopefully Aura Sphere will also get a nice animation (even though I am not sure of any pokemon besides the Jackdeary line that learns it in Uranium.)

Maybe Move Tutor for M S51-A's Mega Launcher? So it can deal with Dark Types?
