- - - INTRODUCTION - - -
Pokémon Daybreak is a fangame made in Pokémon Essentials, and has been in the works for over 4 years by an extremely small development team. For incentive, we have explored: the Pokémon anime and games, real world locations, mythical legends and more. Recently as of Feburary 2023, we have released a huge overhaul update which was in the works for over 2 years!

- - - TRAILER - - -



- - - STORY - - -
A meteor has struck, and you, the local professor's new assistant are assigned to the case. However, some mischievous individuals have beat you to it; and are inspecting the meteor for their own purposes. Who are they, and why is the meteor imperative?

Pokémon Daybreak introduces the enigmatic region 'Armira', and is centralised around storytelling and challenging gameplay. The game is aesthetically beautiful and there are many unique locations you will encounter on your journey, such as a meteor crash site, a castle and a cherry blossom forest. Themes of exploitation, greed, and history are examined and lore is dotted all throughout the game. Take on the challenge of becoming Pokémon Champion in the all-embracing region of Armira!

This game looked very promising, sadly I am stopping it at 2nd gym.
I like challenges, I played maaaaaaaaany fangames, seen maaaaaany types of difficulties and challenges, and in my opinion the choices of difficulty here are mostly time consumming.
Even tho I'm not a fan of the lvl caps I could get along with it on reborn for exemple, that is very well designed on the curve of difficulty.
But here the choices made are making this game kinda stupid in the way that yeah, there is a solution somewhere in hte previous pokemons to catch, but this is way too much. The 1st gym was already annoying, but the 2nd gym is beyond comprehension.... geodude lvl 14 with earthquake ? really ? broken battle items ?
lvl cap way too short considering how insane the moveets of trainers are ? sunkern giga drain lvl 13 or 14 smtg like that, won't even comment the shieldon with flamethrower and ice beam... if at least some interresting TMs were available, or the movesets of the mons revised to give more options to deal with this difficulty that almost every time forces to go catch some dumb stuff just to pass a single random trainer sometimes...

I would like to keep going but at this point, I really don't get where you guys wanted to go with this system, but those choices are not making this game more difficult than another hard mode on another fangame, only difference is that it's way longer to progress, wasting the player alot of time restarting the game because of another stuff not supposed to exist at this stage of a game, and without any appropriate way to deal with it beside going to catch and train with a fairly low xp rate.
Difficulty is different than time consumming, anyone that knows pokemon mechanics in general kinda knows what to go catch etc, but... it's already long enough to grind the mons we want with a decent nature / ivs to also add to this a lvl cap forcing to go fight with pokemons we don't really want or care about if we didn't need it right now. Also after 1st gym I was told pokemons until lvl 25 will obey but the cap is at 18 when I train them .... which is either nonsens either another idea to add difficulty, but again.. I'm sure there are other options to add difficulty that won't look as weird and won't be just more and more grinding !
I think reborn can be safely taken as a good reference for that, even tho it is hard and some parts will take time, the player doesn't have this feeling that it's designed to be frustrating and overtuned. The fights are hard and will require a solid team and strategy, not to go get some average to bad mons situaitonaly just to progress in the game. I imagin this is especially harder at the start, and this overtune stuff is less abusive as player gets more items, TMs, evolutions, strong moves, but just to imagin that stuff going on for 5 or 6 more badges, it's not looking fun at all.
I get that it's a very easy way to increase difficulty to give totally overtuned moves to opponents but then don't put a lvl cap, just soft cap xp so after a point it's 50% less xp or smtg, but hey we don't want to change half the team 4 times every gym...

I wish you good continuations on maybe other projects !

even if tms are limited use you should be able to buy them all eventually cause people normally like unlimited use tms but if that is not the case at least make them all buyable

I have a question, I know the download links were removed by staff until a future update is released, but... why? Was it a virus?

So I just downloaded it the classic way, with the zip file and whatnot. By patch, do you mean dragging and replacing files, or is there an actual patch that needs to be downloaded as well?

You can you use mediafire for zip version i think that will minimize the amount of time you need to answer about how to download from github because not many use and have experience with github. This just suggestion ofcourse you're free to ignore this
