Happy New Years!!!

1/1/2024 | Alpha 8.5 | Anniversary Update
Summarized Update:

Hail has been converted to its Gen 9 counterpart: Snow.
Three professional move tutors (one of which can be found at the Battle Club) have been added to the game and some miscellaneous one.
Several Pokémon have been rebalanced, which includes many buffs and a few nerfs.
Some sprites have been revamped
Many brand new moves and abilities were created for the above reason.
Partner Pikachu and Partner Eevee have been reworked entirely.
Combee, Salandit and Lechonk now have species specific items (similar to Light Ball.) They are rarely held by wild individuals; so, you can get them by using Thief or Covet. Note: that Lechonk is currently unavailable.
Paradox pokemons now have their respective Paradox Abilities (Protosynthesis and Quark Drive), players who have obtained Paradox Pokemons in previous updates may use an ability patch to change to these abilities for their Paradox Pokemon.
Ruination Pokemon have also received their respective Ruination Abilities (Beads of Ruin, Sword of Ruin, Tablets of Ruin, Vessel of Ruin).
Ability Patch can now revert Hidden Abilities and Instructor taught Abilities to the primary ability of a Pokemon.
Maxwell's Neferpitou regains its cape at the end of battle, for previous contest winners.
Role Abilities are kept at the end of Mega-Evolution (the Pokémon will revert to the specific ability instead of defaulting to its natural one.) Roles were rebalanced to reflect that change.
Several bugs were fixed, including Bank interest issues.
The Insanity Room was moved to Mind Asylum after a revamp of the New Dawn.
Pokemon Storage space was extended by ten boxes.

Detailed Update:

PokemonMaster9 · Jan 9, 2024

I know there is a guide to certain things about the game but I still want to know how to turn my pokemon into shadow pokemon. Like what exactly do I do that.

Popemaster · Jan 13, 2024

Dude, I last downloaded and played through to the end of B-Rank in September and that was 8.1 Alpha, now you're on 8.5 already!? Well done on constantly improving this game, you and your team are fantastic. This is easily one of my favorite fan games.

POkeKrAD · Jan 25, 2024

This is a unique experience. Played for ~ 1.5 hrs, was really fun.
However a few issues/problems:

1. The opponent level jumps are not well balanced and their moves are too annoying. I reached a stage where grinding wild mons is useless. However the level jump of the NPC trainers was high. I feel like balancing the opponent levels more fairly would be nice. I lost a large chunk of money.

2. A lack of pokemon types early( in the time I played, I couldn't find a single fire type, maybe I missed something though). If I had a fire type or fighting type, defeating the dude in Pokemon training place where I improve my skill would be a lot easier for example.

3. Some pokemon are not that good as starters. A dark inclination, charm oriented trainer getting a Zorua makes sense, but Zorua isn't a good Pokemon. At early game it becomes an issue where you have limited options. Starters are supposed be your main mon at least till mid game.

4. I bought 3 cards but I couldn't play with the guy in the lounge idk why.

5. Why RNG in the zones? Getting any 1/3 zones in random seems like a bad idea. Why should I waste extra energy, based on luck? Giving an option to select would be great.

Despite what all of my problems I listed, the game is still enjoyable. A different take on Pokemon.

Edit 1: Yeah, the level balancing is terrible. The jump from C to B is awful. The funny thing is there is no way to tell that having pokemon in lvl 40s would be too low. The RNG before maxing out a zone is annoying as well. Is there some place to grind levels efficiently that I am missing?

Reira · Feb 3, 2024

Does anyone know how to evolve galarian Yamask in this game? Also what does the eggnog do?

SirLaw · Mar 2, 2024

Howdy, I wanted to say that yours, and a couple other projects, inspired me to make an account and also create a steamgrid db account.

I used your artwork to create steam art by cropping and sizing in a different ways. I did this a while ago for myself, but I use steam DB art for a bunch other projects so I figured I would upload my personal attempts. I hope you don't mind since there is nothing for your game!

Link is below(might not work yet, i believe it has to be approved), let me know if you would like me to take it down and i'll do so asap

When my Nincada evolves it doesn't leave a shedinja in the empty Party Slot

I think I figured it out. I think, you're supposed to not evolve your nincada in the floor field because for some reason it just deletes your pokemon. I don't know if the update fixed that, if so nevermind.
