Even if you were to get a team together thats it's own challange, and you really can't depend on anyone you are not paying. They will flake on you and they will flake immeadiately on everything.
Also if you can't do programming I just have to say, programming won't get done. Trust me on that one. You have to hold a programmers feet to the fire if you want anything from them.
I say take a Rom Hack of an actuall pokemon game, and modify it a little. Like Moemon. All this new pokemon, new regions buisness is MASSIVELY out of reach.
Well here's the problem. I have no idea how to rom hack. Even if I did, I feel like i wouldn't be able to modify it enough for the game to work the way i want it to.
Seriously it will be easier to learn how to rom hack then make a whole game. No joke. Trust me, do that.
I worked 10 hour days for a week straight just to make items that would fill up a single tract house. I made hundreds of models.
Books, shelves, TVs, clocks, computers, watches, racks, food, medicine, appliences, cabinents, silverware, tables, chairs, sofas, speakers, vases, plants ECT ECT ECT ECT ECT ECT ECT.
And when we went to populate the house, it was barren! It was like someone just moved in from a 1 room apartment!
That was 1 house!
You don't understand how much work even a Pokeclone is, starting from the ground up. I thought I understood what it took to make a game, it took me and a team of 7 others 6 months to make something that wasn't even remotely fun, and was basically ONE level.
No matter what this project is going to be a MASSIVE undertacking, Starting from the ground up will be impossible, I tell you this now, it will be impossible.
IM NOT TELLING YOU THIS TO DISCOURAGE YOU.
Your only chance, the ONLY hope you have, is to take an existing Pokemon Game, and modify that. You can't make a full fleged pokeclone, with the resources available to you here.
You can't.
