Introduction & Story

Welcome to Pokemon Edge of Reality, a game that brings a new and fascinating twist to the fan game genre! Here, you'll be thrust into an alternate reality with a brand new region to explore, known as Kavoenn. You'll experience and encounter many similar faces that you've seen in past Pokemon games, although they may act differently than you'd expect!

The game begins in Sinnoh, with you, as the protagonist, have just defeated champion Cynthia. After winning, you travel to Turnback Cave, looking to battle the legendary Pokemon, Giratina. But the battle is not as straightforward as it seems...

Features

  • Search for your starter among 9 different and unorthodox Pokemon! (With updated move-sets and stats.)
  • Meet almost every canon character from the Pokemon games!
  • All Pokemon Gen 1 - 7 will be available to catch.
  • Pokemon can follow you!
  • An original region and story in an alternate world!
  • Mega Evolution!
  • New moves and maybe even a couple different "Regional Variants".
  • Every Town, City, Route, or Cave has a different theme!
  • Difficulty Modes!
  • Tons of Challenge Modes available! (Nuzlocke, Randomizer, etc...)
  • Achievement System with Rewards!
  • Quality of Life features, such as a Fast Forward Toggle, Quick Save, and functionality for Multiple Save Files.

Starter Locations
If you're struggling finding the Pokemon you want, this is for you!
Easiest to find:
Pancham: Can be found in the back left corner in the Kitchen/Living room
nibbling on a plant.


Slakoth: Located upstairs in the bedroom lying on a bed.

Duskull: Found in the basement in a Pokemon Center healing machine.

Hidden:
Noibat: Also found in the basement in a PC near the back of the room


Sewaddle: Located on the brown table inside the flower pot.

Trubbish: Can be found in the trashcan nearest the entrance to the upstairs bedroom.

Well hidden:
Mareep can be found somewhere in the bedroom. (If you look closely, you can spot the Mareep moving around by it's dust cloud)

This Pokemon is located in the kitchen. However, before being able to take it, you have to locate the file about the vulpix on a computer.

To get the a shiny Aron as your starter, you must enter the correct pass-code at a bookcase to enter a secret room. There is a diary written on a desk somewhere which should give you a clue to the password.

If you are updating the game from v1.0 and want continue with that save file, that's fine.

Save over your old file and then everything should be fine from there-on.

  • In all future demo's this problem shouldn't matter as releases will have the same save file name.

As a added note, Pokemon Edge of Reality is not a completed game, so there may be unexpected bugs and/or crashes, so save often and please report them in the thread. Also, any feedback on the difficulty of the game on any of the separate difficulty modes is appreciated!

All of the content in the next update is actually completed, all I'm doing right now is bug testing and making sure everything is working how it's supposed to.

I would say the next update should be released by the end of April, but things don't always work out the way they should, so don't get your hopes up haha.
Thats great, cant wait to see how the game will turn out

uh... is there a particular reason that I get an error any time I try to use pokeballs? I can't catch anything. At all. An error pops up any time I try to use a pokeball, and when I hit 'ok' it removes a pokeball from my inventory but doesn't actually go through with the catch attempt. It's just consuming pokeballs.
this is the error it gives me;
It's talking about nuzlockes but I never set one up? I wasn't asked if I wanted to do a challenge, so I have no idea what it's going on about.

I will look at that in a bit, but that has never happened to me, so I'm not completely sure what's happening. I'll try to figure out a solution.
Sorry about that!

Sorry about that!
Thanks! I might try starting over in the meanwhiles - maybe I somehow set it to a nuzlocke while I was starting up? I just clicked right past the whole part that asked you about modes and stuff, figuring it'd give me a normal run. I didn't get very far in - was trying to catch a caterpie for some guy in a cave the next town over. It also crashed once while I tried to enter that second town, but not the second time? I missed the error though.
I have a vague unfounded suspicion it had to do with my mon holding the Kings Rock at the time, because my mon wasn't hoding the Kings Rock the second time I tried to enter the town, when the game didn't crash.

Past all my fun error adventures, this is an interesting game~! I like what I've seen so far if it makes you feel better. :D

Thanks I really appreciate it! The thing is I've played the game two times through and my friend played it once and none of those errors happened. So honestly I have no idea what is going on which is very frustrating lol. But thanks for letting me know I'll see what I can do! And if that error when entering the city happens again please send me the message! Thanks!

So, after staring a new file and absolutely blazing through the intro, I seem to be able to catch pokemon just fine. That's... weird. I DID nab that Sneasel from the adoption center in my first file, if that's a reason it might screw up. Hopefully it's not the reason my game decided I wasn't allowed to catch pokemon, I really want that small boy on my team...

EDIT; haven't gotten to the next town yet though. Will update if it decides to break again, but for now, I need to head off as it's super late at night, rip

Ok, thanks for the Update! And I doubt the sneasel would be the problem, so you should hopefully be fine!


Also, I have added a little update to the downloads Here, v2.01, which fixes a few bugs that I noticed while playing myself, and completely removed the challenge modes, as they were causing too many problems that I, unfortunately, am not knowledgable enough to fix, lol.

Updating from 2.0 is as simple as extracting the files and running the game, and to update from 1.0 follow the same instructions in the main post.

Important Update!

OK so this should be the final update for a while, but when I uploaded v2.01 a couple of days ago one of the biggest bug fixes wasn't in the update.
I have just fixed it so please download the game again from the download link! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey, really liking your game so far!

But I recently ran into a bug where I can't move after my fight with Cynthia in Lenepsi City.

So I checked the events and, as you said, the bottom events are bugged by an oversight of mine. If you enter through the top (the green circle), you should be fine. I'll upload a fix tonight or tomorrow morning.
Glad you're enjoying the game!

Thanks for making the bug fixes, but I'm still having problems. Now, my character is just stuck in the chair while Cynthia is on the other side, unable to move. I think the game autosaved after the fight or something, and now I'm stuck.

Is there anything I can do about this?

Again, really liking your game!

Did you press the "s" key after the battle during the cutscene? That is the button for autosaving, and that might have made some problems for you. If you can't figure out any way to unfreeze your game, try sending me your save file @ pkmnedgeofreality@gmail.com and I'll see what I can do.
