So /jp/, what's the best version of Touhoumon to play? Right now, I'm playing Merry Version, the one made by Aqua and so far it doesn't feel too exciting.

I've played Another World before but I stopped because it felt too difficult. The Marisa battle was just bullshit.

If there's nothing else, I guess I'll just stick with the Merry Version but any opinion and feedback would be nice.

If you've tried the latest version, you should know that what made Marisa hard (ZMarisa) was removed. However, the next trainer you have to fight is Reimu and, you guessed it, she has ZReimu (which is not weak to electric moves and even has thunderbolt).

Try Touhoumon Emerald/Scarlet Emerald, it's a bit...intense, but the author replaced almost if not all of the dialogue and should get you some laughs now and then (some characters are also replaced like Aya with Birch and Sakuya with Steven, among others).

''World Link'' by the same Another World author is probably the biggest, it has you beating Hoenn, then Kanto, then a little bit of Johto and then a completely made up world which is pretty big and even has a light-dark-world mechanism, it's the version with the most number of puppets.

Try "World Link", it's pretty cool.
Anyway OP, is your pic a screenshot from some game or just a fanart?

[Anonymous No.]

>>7901615

Wow. I knew about the existence of World Link but I didn't know the game itself was THAT big. Guess I'll give it a shot sometime. Thanks.

Since it's made by the same author though, should I expect the same difficulty I've faced from Another World? I mean really, that game was just...ugh...I DID manage to beat Marisa with sheer luck and save scumming but Reimu was just impossible. I can only hit the reload key so many times and I didn't feel like doing more grinding.

I think it's just fanart. I've never heard of a LttP crossover with Touhou yet as far as I know.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7901716
Well, it's indeed easier and less sadistic, the Hoenn part at least, when you get to the ''Java'' region, which is the new world, if you can manage to read through the massive engrish to know who to fight next, you'll get some pretty nightmarish battles, although by then you should already have a party with 80+ level.

As with every other Touhoumon, BUtsuho (Utsuho + Water Stone) was my key to success.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7901731

Ah. Well, that's good to know. Doesn't sound too difficult. As long as I'm able to beat trainers fairly and not get my face smashed to the ground despite being 10 levels higher than the opposing boneka/touhoumon/whatever because they have an extremely versatile movepool and legendary stats, it's cool.

Sorry that I keep bringing Another World up. You don't how frustrated I was while playing that game. I just want to play a simple game of Touhou + Pokemon. I really wasn't expecting those things in Another World. Had I known earlier, I would've rather played the Lunatic version instead or something.

[Anonymous No.]

If you're feeling masochist you can try Touhoumon Extra, which is done by the author of Emerald so you should know what difficulty you're getting into.

There's a reason why in the first town there's 12 dimension gaps that transport you into a field of bushes with every Touhou character (one for each game, level 5 Chibi) and a huuuuge Pokemon Center-looking building that is actually various Touhous selling almost if not every item in the game.

[Anonymous No.]

You know what, I think I will check out World Link. Looked up some stuff on it and it does look like a pretty cool game. The current version has updated music that sounds purely Touhou as well.

Also, is there anything else I should expect besides the possibly hard alternate, made-up region? I really just wanna take it easy this time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7901831
Actually there's TOO much stuff to mention, there's a ''Boneka'' (puppet) excel file and a Readme that comes with the rom if you download it from the author's website, you should read all of the Readme at least.

IIRC, some of the terrain in Hoenn has been changed and some of it has been added. There's also a crapload of ''legendaries'' due to the 3 countries' number of legendary places/new secret places added by the author. He also made the normally-Nintendo-event areas accesible.

Huh okay. Yeah this game is flat out huge for a GBA rom. I should've looked into this game a long time ago. Anyway, thanks for the info. I'll play it tomorrow because it's like 6 in the morning here. Goodnight /jp/.

61 hours to beat this bastard, the last 15 are grinding just for the final boss.

On to the next one, Extra.

[Anonymous No.]

I loved the idea of Another World, it's more interesting playing as though you're in Gensokyo than in the same old maps and settings of the old pokemon games that I've already played to death. Pity about it being nowhere near finished. I hope that they get around to completing it some day.

What's the one where Vivit is naked

[Anonymous No.]

>>7902105
Ah, I just checked now. So it's finished? Is it actually a full game? It looks like it has most of Gensokyo mapped out and it has 8 gyms, which is damn promising. Is it as hard as the unfinished version? Much like OP, I never had the patience for beating Reimu, Marisa was enough of a pain as it was.

>>7902106
Authors can add any puppet/touhoumon they desire since there are sources, it doesn't neccessarily have to be a game-specific one.

I've seen her in either Touhoumon Emerald and Touhoumon (the ''official'' one) 1.8. Naturally she was added in World Link and Another world I think.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7902113
Sadly, she still has the living barrier ZReimu.

I set up a Light Screen and then kept Rock Tombing her, I had to grind alot (around level 38 I'd say).

Yukari appears next, didn't have time to play it more to see what happens but I will soon.

Aw man. I simply don't have the endurance to go through all that from the beginning again. Will the save files from the old versions still work?

[Anonymous No.]

>>7902133
Of course they work, the author's been working on the same file and it's compatible. Exporting the save file also helped in the World Link versions and 1.8's hundred or so updates.

Still waiting on the latter's translation of the new move types and evolution system. Although I haven't checked in a while.

>>7902287
VIVIT's only there because the single artist who's done the sprites of the first Touhoumon and Touhoumon 1.8's felt like it.

>>7904043
Yeah, I'd have beaten it a lot sooner if the faggy author hadn't forbidden you from getting Last Words/Final/Advents because he thought they were ''cheap'' and only the CPU can use them.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7904196
There's too many versions, that is, counting the ones done by other people instead of the original sprite artist's crew.

The original Touhoumon Fire Red (or Aqua version) is translated, as is the Emerald/Scarlet Emerald version. Other ones I know of are Extra, Insane, Lunatic, World Link and Another World.

[Anonymous No.]

How many more of these pitch black mazes are there going to be in Touhoumon Extra?

[Anonymous No.]

>>7906589

[Anonymous No.]

My favorite ones still is the official Japanese one; 1.8 changed pretty much fucking everything but it seemed interesting up until I lost the motivation to play it. It looks like no updates past 1.812 have come out either, and that one was 2/3 of a year ago. Oh well.

I wonder if anyone will ever translate it. Then again, that isn't really needed, as I could try finding the Touhoumon thread on Pooshlmer and get the guides from it.
...maybe I should try playing it again.

If I was going to play a fan touhou knock off, I'd do the live-a-live one... Then again, I liked live-a-live...

Momiji I think. Sakuya and Youmu perhaps.

I tried Touhoumon Extra, had a nasty forest but I managed to pass it, entered a town that had bushes that contained every Touhou and a pokemon center that had every item in the game. Got beaten up by the first trainer who somehow is 20 levels above me, can't be arsed to grind yet.

I tried Insane Version after the above author recommended it, got into the forest-

It's been 2 days and I STILL CANT FUCKING GET OUT, IT'S HALF AS BIG AS KANTO, THERES EVEN FALSE DOORS THAT LEAD BACK TO THE BEGINNING.

[Anonymous No.]

I'm at Nitori in Touhoumon Emerald, the author won't let me use Finals or Last Words because they're cheap to him, and Nitori's puppets are too cheap (especially FMarisa).

Any tips?

I don't really know, it's dark just like the second cave in Pokemon Fire Red. I've had some sort of memorizing challenge in order to know where I'm going but either way it's useless since most of the huge roads lead to a dead end, recently I found a tree sprite (normally unpassable that I could actually walk through so I could have skipped any other passable tree that makes up the forest's walls (99% of the forest is a one-square road, they're all bushes too) and I can't be arsed to go ahead and check this nightmarishly huge and messy forest for each and every tree, not to mention having to eventually go back because of random encounters draining me.

Use someone that has Surf or a rock-type move, there are wild level 60s in the Victory Road so you don't have to train so much. I didn't have a strong water puppet so I used Meiling and Dynamicpunched her, make sure you have whoever you choose alive for when she's summoned, her FNitori is nasty.
