Part 22: Safari Zone

Part 22

Part 22 is the Safari Zone. Exclusive to the Gen IV games it is set in far west Johto. It is place in the games where you can catch 'rare and exclusive' Pokemon.

The Safari Zone in the DS games can have up to six different areas at any one time. But because this isn't the DS game all 12 zones are here.

First up is the Savannah. Open spaces with small patches of grass shaded by acacia trees.

Next to the Savannah is the 'Peak' area. It is a rocky peak made from red sandstone with granite pathways.

And next to that is the Mountain area. Dense trees hide the grassy patches that are set within.

And there is the first three.

Next is the 'Plains' area. It is quite plain hahahaha with ample grassy patches and oak trees here and there.

Next to that is the Marshland. Similar to a swamp there are pools of stagnant water with damp oak trees surrounding them.

North of that is the desert. Very similar to the Savannah area. Acacia trees have been substituted for oak and there is less grass.

Next door is the Meadow. A wide open space with fresh ponds, flowers and tall grass.

And that is the third row complete. The area at the bottom of the screenshot is the Wasteland. I jost forgot to take a screenshot of it.

Well, that's nine of them done.

The last three we'll go over quickly. On the left is rocky beach, in the centre is the Forest and on the right is the Swampland.

The entrance to the Safari zone. There is a small town at the entrance. When I say town I mean more like a market. In the DS games you just buy stuff you don't need here.

I forgot to mention the Safari Zone was built in a separate world file. I had no idea how big it would get or how to properly place it.

The entrance. Modified slightly to accommodate the interior.

Part 17: Olivine City

Part 17

Update is finally here. Sorry. I've been busy again.

Olivine City

Olivine City is a moderately sized coastal city. Landmarks include the Glitter Lighthouse and Olivine Port where you can catch a ferry to Kanto in the DS games.

Immediately there was a problem. There is ocean to the south and east of the city and due to the size of Olivine city and its proximity to the National Park some modification of the landscape is in order.

First, the removal of some trees :-(

Once that is all cleared up it was time to start shaping the land.

I skipped a few screenshots because they were a bit boring. But there is Olivine Port. Just without the terminal.

And the harbour area. Without the public furniture.

Throughout the city there are banners. I had a go at replicating the banners using dyes and stuff. This was the result.

The terminal. Built over the water.

Glitter Lighthouse

Glitter lighthouse is an integral part of the Johto storyline. It is where Jasmine, the gym leader is looking after an Ampharos named Amphy. You as the player must go to Cianwood City and get the medicine before progressing in the story. 

But the lighthouse. It is quite tall, but then again it is a light house.

The main entry.

Olivine City Gym

This gym is based on Steel-type Pokemon. The Gym leader is Jasmine.

It is quite a basic gym. There is just a walkway with hoops over it.

And there we are. Olivine City.
