Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Come to think of it, I still have my old Sapphire game from back when I was still into Pokemon (I haven't used it in about four years, though). IIRC, Rayquaza was one of the legendaries (and pretty large), so I think this coaster might be a little small for something of that size. It's up to you, though.
Anyway, I'd make the overbank considerably higher. Right now, it doesn't look to be even a quarter of the lift hill's height, and if you look at pics of other Hypers, the overbank is usually more than half the height of the lift hill.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
I didn't really supply very good photo. The overbank is a little less than half the lift. When i get done, it should be over half. Thanks.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Don't make that tube support so high! It looks unrealistic. Name: maybe Articuno, Luigia, Moltres? some Ideas...

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Ok, time for an update!
I have finished the overbank. Next is the hill. The overbank. ![]() Another view. ![]() An overview. ![]() Thanks for all the comments! ^I don't really know what you mean about making the tubes so high, but I like the names. Ok, so I think I am going to poll to see what you guys think the best name is. So the names are: Pikachu Darkrai The Three Legendary Birds: Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos. I am also going to start theming today. I think I am going to make the station a Pokemon Center. Any other ideas? If you see anything you don't like, just tell me.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
It should be mirrored and over banked sooner. It also seems like you could get more height out of it. Also think you should but a hill before the overbank.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Just a question: from which generation do you want a name?
And puts some rods under the station floor so it looks more like a floor

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Sorry for the DP, but I finally have a update.
I fixed the overbank and I think it is better. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hopefully, it's better, and it does go through it as fast. The lift is 22 inches high and the overbank is 17 inches high. I think I am either going to do a hill under the lift or a speed hill. You choose. I also think I am going to do the Three Birds because it has more options. Comments appreciated!

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
That overbank is perfect, it goes through it with good speed.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Your hill goes straight, sharp, straight just round it out a bit more. Also, for the layout I would suggest either (A) Helix, brake run, 180 degree turn, station or (b) bunny hills, 180 degree turn, brakes, station...assuming you don't have enough speed left for the helix.

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Ok, don't do a MCBR on a uber small coaster like this.
You should re-do the hill, it looks weird. And to big_builder up there it's lucario not lucardio

Re: Pokemon Coaster!!!
Do you have enough room to make the turn into the helix any larger? It looks kinda sharp to me. Other than that, it's okay. Better than me, lol.
