General Information

Discover new secrets in the extended Kalos Region!
This game takes place 5 years after the events of Pokémon X & Y and lots of thing have changed in the region. New Pokémon Forms, (Mega) Evolutions and Baby-Pokémon have been discovered by the so-called Evolatorium.
You will enter the roll of a new talented Pokémon Trainer, that moved from Hoenn to the South of the new Kalos Region. Your siblings Maya and Ferrio will join you on your adventure, after your father (Frontier Brian Brandon!) gave you your first Pokémon.
What dangers will you face on your adventure? What new friends will you make on your way? Let's find out!


Project Description:
This game is in development since July 2016.
But the idea to create a sequel to Pokémon X and Y comes from all the way back, when there were rumors of the supposedly Pokémon Z.
Unfortunately it turned out to be only an anime... So, I decided to do it myself!
In the beginning it used Pokémon Essentials v16, but I updated it to v18 a few months ago.
I'm responsible for all the Sprites of the new Pokémon, as well as the maps, the story and the general development of the game.
I have some people who support this project and I really appreciate all the people who let me use thier public resources and music!
So, check out the Credits to see, who these awesome people are!

These Tools were used to create this game:
RPG Maker XP
Pokémon Essentials
Ulead PhotoImpact XL
Audacity
Gimp
Aseprite
Cubase



The "new" Kalos Region

mapRegion0.PNG

(The Map of Demo 1.2)​

There are plenty of rumours that the Kalos region was incomplete... there was supposed to be an unvisited area in the South of the region... these rumors appeard to be true! There is a whole new Region to discover! The Kalos Region has been extended... it now concludes the north (known from X and Y) and the south which couldn't be reached five years ago, due to some disagreements between the heads of both Regions. But eventually they found peace again and found the "Kalos Federation" concluding of Norlos and Soulos.

Hey, so I tried releasing a pokemon while going through my boxes when the following error popped up. Just figured it was worth pointing out. Aside from that, I'm having a blast with the game.

Hey, thank you for your comment. :)

I realize what the problem here is. I appears to me that you are playing an outdated version of the game (Version 1.0)
This version has a glitch that freezes the game when trying to release a Pokémon.

Make sure that you are downloading Version 1.2.1 of the game. ^^
Then everything should work fine. And your save file should still be compatible - So you won't lose any progress.

I'm really happy you like the game so far! :)

Did just that, and it's working smoothly. New question: How, or where do I get the lucky egg?

I'm glad it worked. :)

The Lucky Egg is currently unavailable. It is planned to get implemented in the future, when you beat the third gym.

Is the v1.1 update new? Does it contain any more story?
No, the updates 1.X are only bug and performance fixes.

2.0 Will be the next update that will extend the story - I'm currently working on it and hopefully it will be released in 2023. ^^

Hey there! I'm trying to play the game, but it's incredibly laggy on me to where I'm only getting like 10FPS or so as opposed to it running smoothly. Is there anything I can do to fix the lagginess? Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi there!
Is the game laggy on the overworld or in battles?

I assume these are some performance issues from the game itself.
Since this game was made with an older version of Pokémon Essentials, it doesn't have the MKXP performance boost that more recent fan games have.

I can only say that restarting the game in different places (In a Pokémon Center or in a town) might give more insight information on what exactly the problem might be.

I'm sorry I can't be more of a help here.

Overworld, mostly. It seems to be fine if I run it with a medium screen as opposed to the large one. It seems to be particularly bad when I walk through a patch of grass or go through cities, but reducing the screen size definitely does help.

And it's okay! I understand it's a tricky problem to narrow down.

I did finish the demo and I've got to say that I quite like this game and can't wait for the full version to be released! Do you have any plans to make a Discord server for this game? :)

Thanks for the information!

I'll hope that updating to a newer Essentails version will help to reduce the problem.
But I must admit that I haven't looked at optimizing the game that much in the current state - but I will look into that in the future! :)

I'm happy that you like the demo so far.
And currently there are no plans for creating a Discord Server, but that might change in the future.

Currently the most active Pokémon Epilog Z information source might be the newly created Instagram account, where I post some information about the game every once in a while.

How far has the game progressed? I was on way to my first gym but before I went to the next route, it said the demo has ended. You should really do a web launcher, n just keep updating progress.

Hi there,

When exactly did the game told you that the demo has ended?
Because it should display the message when you enter the Winter Tunnel - which should only be accessible after winning you first badge.

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand what you mean with the "web launcher"
Could you elaborate a little more?
