The (Not ) Definitive Telefang 1 Translation Topic

[Kimbles(imported)]

XD To andwhyisit, that's very kind, but we still don't know the official colours for most of them... Plus, some of the pictures on my copy have pencil over them. It looks like the previous owner of the book marked off the Denjuu they had... >_> I'm just not sure if it's still worth it to scan it, since the player's guides don't open nearly as wide as the manga does, on top of that...D: I can still try though, if you want...

XD And yeah, awesome avatar. XD I thought it was official for a second when I saw it. Good work. XD

To Kid Sonic, Racie's site has pictures of most of coloured Denjuu, again... As you've evidently noticed...XD The ones that she's missing are partial pictures of Ixora, and Sorghum, full pictures of Sorghum's evo, Funnel's evo, and Saiope, and tiny headshot pictures of Noriutsugi, Berzelia and Bashou. D: She probably left them because they were small or too close to the centre of the book to get a good scan, which will also be a problem for me. :/ All of the other Denjuu, we'll likely never get colours for.

And yes, we already know that's what you're doing. You posted it before. D: This topic isn't for your projects, either.

Yes. Give me as many B&W Denjuu pics as you can scan. (Even B&W ones that have coloured pics)

I will most likely create a new thread for releasing the coloured images.

What dimensions should the images be in?

XD And yeah, awesome avatar. XD I thought it was official for a second when I saw it. Good work. XD

The image is official, just not the colouring job. :rolleyes:

This is what I i'm doing.

I didn't mean the sprites, I meant the official pics. The ones in grayscale in the manuals. *facepalm*

...>_>; Well, the first third of the list is complete with info from the guide, now. I failed to foresee how extremely time consuming this would be, so I'm working on it a post at a time and then updating, so you guys at least get something. *nod*

Since it was already a ridiculous amount of work, I figured I might as well go all out and fill in everything I planned on adding ever, so now we have the attack and arrive text and the assigned ringtones for every Denjuu, found with the rom and gameshark codes. :/ Hopefully there's no typos, but I did check them over pretty hard. *nod*

Regarding the attack and arrive translations, see....XD It's kind of frustating. Most of the Denjuu have a sentence-ending catchphrase/syllable of some sort, related to their personality or the animal they're based on, like a personalized speech impediment. >_> This is actually super common in japanese media, but it really doesn't transfer into english at all, so usually it's just ignored in translation. If you're familiar with Animal Crossing, you get the idea. XD
Telefang would lose quite a bit of its charm without them, so I'll do my best to translate. *nod* Even so, it's pretty much a hundred different ways of saying the exact same thing, which is never easy to deal with, so I will probably take my time filling them in... *nod*

I might also be pretty leisurely translating the dex entires, since I really suck at wording, and can take my time now that I have the japanese written out. XD I know a couple of them I won't be able to translate with my current knowledge of japanese, so really the list will never be totally complete... Oh, and I reworded a couple of the awkward translations I had, but some of them are still kind of bad. ^^;

Another way of how Telefang is similar to Pokemon.

Don't berate me for that.

I find it interesting that a lot of the attack/arrive phrases are unique to every Denjuu in the Japanese version, but a lot of them are similar (e.g. "Split you!" or "Long wait") in the bootleg. It doesn't help that there's a small character limit...

Pokemon does it in sounds rather than text. But I understand what you are saying. The idea behind it is to apply individuality to each Denjuu or Pokemon, like how Fungus and Crypto had different introductory speeches that indicated different personalities.

I assume (perhaps wrongly) that these haven’t been done yet.

XD Aaah, I already have an item list almost done, though it was copied from the guide rather than the game... I was going to post it and the attack list once I had the rest of the Denjuu list done, since I need it to fill in the Denjuu that use them.... *nod*

I have been working on this, but it goes very slowly you see, and I want to finish the text dump first because the guide has shown itself to be of questionable accuracy. ): It's missing some attacks, includes some that don't exist, and that "syringe" item isn't mentioned anywhere... ): Crap.

So uh, do you think you could look at that exact section in Diamond and post the bootleg item names? D: That is one part I am still missing...

Will we ever do a Definitive Telefang 2 Translation Topic?
