A bit of constructive criticism:

Legendary Overload: Instead of focusing mainly on legendaries you should focus on game features, else people will assume that the game is only about legendaries.
Confusion: You need to deliver the concept as if the audience has no idea what telefang or pokemon is.
Text Issues: Your text needs to be easy to read and not obstructive.

1. Whoever doesn't know what Pokemon is, has no business watching this game trailer.
2. Not ever trailer goes and explains what the game is to newcomers.
3. You must have poor vision to not be able to read that. I made sure it was readable.
4. What's done is done, and so is this debate.

Mmm, it was an alright trailer, but I agree that it focuses too much on legendaries. D: I'm always more interested in the normal monsters, the ones you'll actually see for most of the game....*shrug* ...Though I'm curious, how are event legendaries going to work here? XD

Really, I do hope you make and finish this game, because I think the idea of a Telefang fan game in any form is pretty neat. XD You've said before that you weren't going to make it a pokemon hack, so how do you plan to make it? :O *genuinely interested*

Actually I was thinking more along the lines of people not knowing what Telefang is.

Hacking Pokemon:
Well I still think that hacking Pokemon is your best bet, there is plenty of support for hacking Pokemon and you may get some assembly knowledge into ya one day and learn some advanced stuff, or even use that to learn c++.

Hacking Telefang:
Our knowledge of how to hack Telefang is still too limited to create a full hack.

Programming:
If you want it done in something less than 5 years then I would recommend getting a team together after learning enough programming skills for the job. Plus other skills such as spriting, mapping and music creation are things that you will normally require help with, that is why most good games are built by teams. Though if you were going down this road then you should try learning a programming language first in order to get a taste for it before you set anything in stone.

Well OK so yeah.
The only complain I have is the usage of the bootleg box monsters, anyways it seems interesting.
Ad Andwhy: What about the RPG maker? It would be easier to program the D-shot in there.

Oh, and move to fanart please?

This isn't some little hack solution. When I said I was going to make this into a real game, I meant it. I'm NOT playing around here with you guys. I'm 100% serious(why else would I include that bumper), and i'm going to pull it off, despite whatever it is you guys have to say. Nothing said further.

Eerm no-one said that you're not going to pull it off. We were just exploring the possibilities. Anyways, go for it! (:

The Obama at the beginning of the trailer was distracting and irrelevant. I mean, Obama's awesome, but it's still irrelevant.
When the logo's showing, the text is really difficult to read (it is possible to read it, but in a trailer you'll want maximum clarity of words as well as pics).
Besides, in a trailer, you shouldn't reveal every single legendary, only those mascots/important to the main plot. You want some secrets ^_~
And sometimes trailers focus more on gameplay than plot points/monsters, but since your game isn't near done yet I'll skip that.

(Oh and I suck at making vids if you ask)

Most projects I've seen like this (not Telefang though) usually end up halfway dropped or lost interest by the creators in a year or less, unless there's a really dedicated team doing it.
Just saying. I'm not saying you're not going to pull it off.

Lol! I'm an example of that! XD I gave up my Pokemon hack of Telefang after 2 weeks... maybe I'll go back sometime lol.

C++? Some flavour of basic? Or is it with a prebuilt engine such as Gamemaker, RPG Maker, or MMF?

Though I would recommend that you ask for help at pokecommunity once you have a decent game engine working. There is a game creation community over there that would most likely be happy to help you.

That was a bumper. Looks like I'll have to explain that:

It's time for things to change. We have been in the era of suckage for a long time now(since 2000) (the attitude and bias of forums are part of it). And since Obama is now president, it's now time for some changes. If he can make a differance so can I. And this idea is an essential component towards my big version in the future. It's more than just Pokemon Telefang i'm aiming for.

Uh, I don't understand really but good luck with what you're doing. ._.
Btw, how exactly is this forum 'biased'? It's not like there's a Pokemon vs Telefang war going on here.

Smilesoft doesn't even exist! Rocket Company holds all of it's copyrights, but that's about all. Rocket Company's not going to do anything.

1. Where do I get Obama's number?

2. You could have asked me before you used my art.

1. Don't get so defensive. It's not like I claimed it as my own.
2. You act as if you don't want your artwork to have anything to do with my movie. That's pretty selfish.
3. Why would you need Obama's number.
4. What do you have against my movie?

Still, it's common courtesy to ask someone for permission before you use their art for anything, not just your movie. Because it's their art, not yours after all.
If not, you could at the very least give credit to her.

I understand that. I'm not some horrible person to do something like that.

Neverless, I gave her credit.

4. What do you have against my movie?

1. Putting my art anywhere witout asking is a documented peeve of mine, I'm not aggressive over it unless I find the use particularly egregious but it definitely grinds my gears every time!

2. It is selfish of me to decide how I would like my art to be used, thank you. I should realize that putting it on my personal website makes it open source.

3. He probably has a better nature than Ornithogalum and Kanzou and I'm tired of them whining that I don't call enough and asking if I've ever cheated on exams, of course I have and they already know that.

4. I thought my hysterical rantings in the past over the assotiation between Pokémon and Telefang and its overall detrimental effect on the latter were annoying enough to be memorable, but I suppose not.

5. PLACE: my Gmail inbox
TIME: 8/26/08
RE Telefang Art Submission: Sorry, but Pokecharms doesn't like it when people edit their trainer cards. As it says on the site, "We ask you not to modify this card or remove the credit in it, as the materials on this program are submitted by members of the Pokecharms community ONLY for use on the TC Maker and by using their stuff without credit, it's a slap in the face to their effort - not to mention my own in providing this program."

6. hold on I need to let the cat outside he won't stop meowing and I don't want him to poop on the carpet again

7. nevermind, it's snowing outside, can't let the little dude freeze

8. What in the world how did this list get doubled? I am NOT good with computers.
