I kind of felt like mapping this, what with the recent release of Pokemon Platinum.

1:28:925(2)-> 1/4 beat forward.

EDIT:
I mean
Each difficulties' arrangement is much the same-> This issue can be fixed by fliping notes on few difficulty.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by this. Could you elaborate?

Is this a bad thing? If it is, I can mix things up.

General
Someone already mapped this, though only one difficulty was made.

Easy
Rename to Normal. Even then, it's bordering on Hard, but not quite there yet.
00:17:67 (9) - Make the whistle occur across the entire slider (except the end).
00:18:67 (1) - Delete.
00:19:01 (1,3,4) - The clap-finish sounds bad when repeated three times.
00:28:78 (2) - Align with (1).
00:29:34 (1) - Looks poorly placed.
00:31:45 (2) - Align with (1).
00:33:34 (1) - I don't like the slider here.
00:36:01 (2,3) - Stack these?
00:37:34 (2,3) - Same.
00:38:67 (2,3) - Same.
00:40:01 (2,3) - Same.
00:40:51 (1) - What?
00:46:67 (6) - Maybe increase slider tick rate?
00:59:01 (1,2,3) - These don't sound right...
01:00:34 (5) - Move under the slider, like 01:01:01 (7).
01:01:67 (9) - Position under the slider in the direction of the slider, like (7).
01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - Bland positioning.
01:31:01 (1) - Eh, doesn't sound good.

Normal
Kill this. Sorry.

Hard
00:50:34 (8) - Looks pretty goofy, and others similar to it.
01:28:34 (1,2,3) - Change these to be different from Normal.
01:31:01 (1) - Same as Normal.

Insane
00:31:67 (1) - Being waaay over here confused me my first play. I guess keep it, 'cus it's Insane.
00:36:01 (2,4,2,4) - These are plain stupid. Sorry.
00:51:34 (9) - Break is inappropriate here. Fill this with part of the map.
00:59:51 (4,5,6) - Don't make a triple thing out of this. Doesn't sound good.
01:00:01 (7) - New combo.
01:02:01 (1) - Remove new combo.
01:19:34 (x) - Break here, perhaps?
01:25:51 (15) - Add a note here.
01:28:34 (1,2,3) - Same as Hard.
01:31:01 (1) - Same as Normal.

One of those multiple-song map things, interesting! I'll check it out.

I kind of had this feeling. Done.

00:17:67 (9) - Make the whistle occur across the entire slider (except the end).
There is already a whistle at the beginning... how would i make it go "across the entire slider"?

00:18:67 (1) - Delete.
00:19:01 (1,3,4) - The clap-finish sounds bad when repeated three times.
00:28:78 (2) - Align with (1).

00:31:45 (2) - Align with (1).
Done.

00:33:34 (1) - I don't like the slider here.
Spinner, you mean? It's gone now.

00:36:01 (2,3) - Stack these?
00:37:34 (2,3) - Same.
00:38:67 (2,3) - Same.
00:40:01 (2,3) - Same.
Done.

00:40:51 (1) - What?
I'm not sure how I feel about this spinner either. I could remove it but I'm not sure what I'd replace it with. Suggestions?

00:46:67 (6) - Maybe increase slider tick rate?
Great idea, increased to 2.

00:59:01 (1,2,3) - These don't sound right...
In what way? I think they're ok as they are.

01:00:34 (5) - Move under the slider, like 01:01:01 (7).
01:01:67 (9) - Position under the slider in the direction of the slider, like (7).
Done.

01:15:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - Bland positioning.
Indeed. Done.

01:31:01 (1) - Eh, doesn't sound good.
Replaced with just a beat at the end.

Normal
Kill this. Sorry.
Done.

Hard
00:50:34 (8) - Looks pretty goofy, and others similar to it.
I like them... :(

01:28:34 (1,2,3) - Change these to be different from Normal.
01:31:01 (1) - Same as Normal.
Done.

Insane
00:31:67 (1) - Being waaay over here confused me my first play. I guess keep it, 'cus it's Insane.
Yeah, it's insane, so I figured some jumps would be alright.

00:36:01 (2,4,2,4) - These are plain stupid. Sorry.
How are they stupid? I like them... :(

00:51:34 (9) - Break is inappropriate here. Fill this with part of the map.
Leaving the break for now because I don't want to have the map go much longer than this without a break. I don't know of a better place to put one.

00:59:51 (4,5,6) - Don't make a triple thing out of this. Doesn't sound good.
Eh, I'll leave it for now.

01:00:01 (7) - New combo.
01:02:01 (1) - Remove new combo.
01:19:34 (x) - Break here, perhaps?
01:25:51 (15) - Add a note here.
01:28:34 (1,2,3) - Same as Hard.
01:31:01 (1) - Same as Normal.
Done.
Thanks for the in-depth modding! Also thanks for noticing my map! :)

I <3 P.P.

[Normal]
01:29:67 - maybe add something here instead of the break. a break and then one note kinda sucks :D

[Hard]
^

[Insane]
1 less overall difficulty
00:36:01 (2) - distinguish these 2x sliders better. either with storyboard or by looks (or both)
same break thing at the end

kudo star and star!

Alright, I added a bit more to the end of each difficulty (left the breaks in but shortened them). I also added little fading "alerts" next to the 2x sliders on Insane.

Set Overall Difficulty back by 1.
There are some pretty hard parts which are a bit too hard for [Normal] imo.

Fixed all of this. For some reason, these sliders had become shortened - they were originally snapped to 1/3. I must have broken something when submitting earlier. :(

[Hard]

00:18:67 (1) - This isn't spaced right.

00:45:34 (3) - ^
Fixed some inconsistencies, but I more or less left things how they are - there's no distance snapping here but I think it's alright since this part of the song is the same as the last part.

[Insane]

00:30:34 (4,5,6,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - Unintuitive jumps imo.
I'll wait for a second opinion on the jumps before I change them - I think they're fine, and nobody else has said anything like this yet.
00:44:01 (3) - This isn't spaced right.
00:45:34 (3) - ^
Same as the "this isn't spaced right"s in hard.

Hm, maybe. It's nerfed a lot from what it was originally. I might add a proper easy difficulty, but I have no idea how I'd map it. I started my osu! career playing normal/hard so I don't really know how easy maps play. :? If anyone wants to map an easy for this, go right ahead.

Thanks for modding, by the way!

Appeared wild Lokamp! (Lv48)
Wild Lokamp used mod action!

Normal
[00:21:622] remove this blue slider; instead of it, set a beat on this point and set a slider starting from the end of the removed slider to the next red beat. With all that time, you can create an original pokemon slider (a P or others, as your choice)
[00:29:681] this gap is quite nonsense... try to unify the next two yellow beats into a slider and add a beat after the slider
[01:01:981] clap on the two rapid beats here...
[01:03:311] ... and there!
[01:07:298] this situation is like another one show upper (on 00:21:622); if you have modified that as I said, remember of this part!

Hard
[00:24:350] One of the "beat balls" (GREAT IDEA!) can be composed by four little sliders instead of 8 beats; plus, "complete" the 2nd beat ball by placing blue beats in the right order!
[01:06:189] for the rest of the song, replace the extrarapid beat series like this into rapid sliders (it isn't Insane yet...)

Insane (You probably don't know the word "possible", right?)
[00:30:830] Ok, I know this is insane mode, but this multiple spacing passage can make the map a BIT unplayable...

Bidoof only (at lv 101, I suppose...)
[00:11:241] add a beat here
[00:34:000] clap on 4th, 6th, 8th yellow beats and maybe on the 1st green one!

Anyway, you've done an EXCELLENT work! Star'd.

00:19:01 (1) - Obscured by another slider.
00:24:01 (1) - What's with all the 1-note combos here?

[Hard]
Fine.

[Insane]
Great! At first it looked like it was going to be a simple flip of Hard with some extra beats, but you really worked it into its own difficulty.

[Bidoof Only]
00:46:51 (8,9) - On places like these, where the two ending points of sliders overlap, make sure you make them so they overlap pretty much perfectly. You'll need to turn grid snap off to do that.

Wonderful. Star.

This does look a little ugly, I guess. I moved the slider somewhere else.

I don't know. Probably forgetfulness on my part. I removed some new combo markers.

I tried this, and it looks nice in the editor, but while playing the stacking makes it look really ugly. I'll leave it how it is now.

Normal
Decrease Overall Difficulty four ticks.
Decrease HP drain rate a bit.

00:14:17 (1) - Make angled like 00:15:51 (4) between 00:16:01 (5,6).
00:28:34 (2,3) - Clap at starts, Finish at ends.
01:18:67 (7) - Move above 01:20:34 (1).

Hard
Decrease Overall Difficulty two or three ticks.

00:11:51 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13) - Long combo. I would do this:

00:08:34 (6,1) - Swap new combos.
00:10:34 (4,1) - Swap new combos.

Insane
00:03:01 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4) - Very similar to Hard. </snore> Maybe double each note by adding a beat 1/2 after each hit circle?
00:11:51 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18) - See suggestion from Hard.
00:23:01 (10) - New combo.
00:30:34 (4) - New combo.
00:38:67 (2,3) - Ugly. Make all the sliders identical. I like the longer/flatter ones better.

Both are already below the middle mark. I'll lower both one notch but no further. This is normal, not easy.

00:14:17 (1) - Make angled like 00:15:51 (4) between 00:16:01 (5,6).
That does make more sense, doesn't it? Done.

Eh, I like it better as it is now.

01:18:67 (7) - Move above 01:20:34 (1).
I'd rather leave it as it is and keep the spacing consistent.

01:31:67 (1,1) - Spinner.
Done.

Lowered by one.

00:17:34 (12) - New combo.
This makes more sense than what I had! Thanks!

00:30:34 (4) - New combo.
Alright.

00:47:01 (6,8) - Hard to read!
I could indeed see this being a little hard to read since the two sliders have different repeat counts but I like the sound they make. If you have any specific suggestions for improvement, I'm open to them.

00:49:51 (6) - Hard to read.
This one seems perfectly fine to me.

01:00:84 (8) - New combo to match 01:06:17 (1).
Sure, why not?

01:04:01 (1) - Hard to read.
Ok, are you just not good at tiny fast sliders or something? :P

01:18:67 (9,10) - Hitsounds?
Added.

01:25:67 (1,2) - Jumps please.
01:28:34 (1,2,3) - Jumps please.
You got it!

I think it sounds ever so slightly better as it is now.

It's a simulation of fighting a gym leader using only Bidoof!

Easy
00:28:34 (4) - Any reason why there isn't a whistle at the beginning of the slider?
Yeah, this part of the music sounds slightly different from the three before it.
00:37:84 (1) - (and other sliders like this) I think it sounds better with whistles on the endpoints as well (this goes for other difficulties as well)
Haha yeah it does, not sure why I thought to do it how it was.
00:49:67 (3,4,5,6) - These don't really sync to the music very well imo
Any suggestions for what else I could do here?
01:06:17 (1,2,3,4,5) - Difficult pattern for Easy?
Changed by removing the 1.
01:18:34 (6,7,8) - Could you make this a symmetrical pattern? It's kind of weird just going to the side like that.
Changed slightly.
01:24:34 (1,2,3) - Again, this pattern doesn't really sync well
Again, any suggestions for what else I could do here?
01:26:676 - delete this break and the next one
Done!
01:31:67 (1) - I think this is too short a spinner for Easy
Lengthened, thanks to the space freed by removing that break!

Normal
01:26:510 - again, delete microbreaks
01:31:67 (1) - meh, still not really a fan on the spinner, but w/e

Hard
00:23:01 (10) - *total suggestion* maybe 1 more repeat?
Good idea!
01:31:76 (x) - I think adding a beat here (blue tick between 1 and 2) would work well and make the ending a little more epic.
Alright!
the breaks at the end could probably go too, but I think I'll leave that up to you
I'll leave them on the harder levels since the HP drain might cause problems otherwise.

Insane
00:32:34 (1,2,3,4) - This combo doesn't flow well from the previous one, I would make this go in the opposite direction, with 1 starting where 2 is now.
Done!
00:36:01 (2) - (and others like this) bleh, idk about these. They were natural to me because I've listened to the song so many times now, but it might take people who don't know the song as well by surprise. I'll leave this for you/a BAT to decide on.
I wouldn't do this shit in any other difficulty but it's Insane so I think they're alright. I don't know how good a job those little storyboarded alerts do. I like this part though and would prefer not to get rid of it. :P

That's all, good map :) *

For those sections that didn't sync well, try having a slider like the combo before it (and for the first one add a hitcircle on the next white tick)
Works for me!

no kudosu here plz ^_^
Oh fine, if you insist. If you ever decide you want the kudosu though just let me know. :P

EDIT: oh, forgot about Bidoof. Meh I'm really not a fan of this difficulty, a lot parts just don't go well with the music and it just feels like it's hard for the sake of being hard :| I'll refrain from modding this for now at least as I don't really have the patience right now and it will probably be verrry long list :P
Zatoichi made this one. I'm not sure if he still follows this thread or not of if I can bother him to update it if there are problems with it. We'll see...

Easy:
00:29:34 (1) - start this 1/2 beat later and end where it currently is

Normal, Hard, Insane:
all fine

Bidoof:
00:45:51 (2) - new combo to show change in timing interval in the stack
00:45:84 (5) - " "
01:02:01 (7) - you can barely see the repeat note after a 300
01:04:84 (3,4,5,6,7,1,2,3) - please use some new combos to make this easier to read
01:08:34 (10) - probably illegal, you can't see the repeat sign under the 9's 300

Nice map. Star.

[Bidoof]
00:30:34 (5) - fix this so it isn't a jump
00:57:67 (9) - this sounds a little weird.. make it land on white tick meebe?
00:58:34 (1) - this spinner is wayyy too fast to be rankable. autoplay gets 1000, minimum is 2000
01:02:76 (2) - the overlaps starting in here are kind of a nightmare, fix some of them, make them more coherant

I'll bubble after changes and recheck!

00:30:34 (5) - fix this so it isn't a jump
I'll assume by this you meant the extra bit of space between this and 6. I fixed it by changing 6 a bit.

But yeah, I made all the changes you pointed out. Hopefully the "unreadable" part you and blissfulyoshi pointed out is somewhat readable now. I actually had to move a few things...

Thanks for coming by again!

Wheee~

[Easy]:
00:28:34 (4) - Whistle on startpoint?
00:35:17 (1) - Oh god, lower the volume here. x_x Even if it's a Kiai special part, it's still quite loud. (This is for the rest of the difficulties too)
01:25:67 (1) - Lower volume, por favor~?

[Normal]:
01:01:01 (7) - Whistle here?

[Bidoof Only]:
Suggestion: Get some Bidoof background. Or better yet, replace the Gym Leaders' heads with Bidoofs. =D

You need an approachcircle.png, please. Either that or force the Default Skin. :D

Thanks! I made all the sound changes you suggested and lifted an approachcircle from the template skin because fuck forcing skins. :P

I also added a new image for Bidoof Only and changed the original bg image to a jpg file to cut out about 400KB of needless space. Hooray!

CAN I GET A BUBBLE UP IN THIS BITCHHHH

edit: also, I still need that thumbnail changed...

I must say, the new bidoof only background image is truly wonderful, even if I'm not good enough to actually play that difficulty.

This is intentional. Zatoichi made it this way and I think it looks nicer this way, too. Unless it somehow proves to be a rankability problem, I'd like to leave them as they are.
