Story​

Welcome to Altera, a wild and diverse region that overflows with abundance as well as danger. It is also the only place in the Pokémon world that emanates large amounts of Flux energy, a potent resource that has many uses. Flux is primarily used in electricity generation, but it also has applications in hand-held technologies as well as Pokémon Battles. The value and power of this resource led to rapid economic growth of the region. However, shortly after humans began tapping into Flux energy for power, reports started to emerge about vicious, powered-up Pokémon appearing: the Alter Pokémon.

To combat these Alter Pokémon and preserve peace and prosperity in Altera, the Altera Pokémon League was formed. The purpose of this League is to produce strong trainers to fight the Alter Pokémon, rewarding them with money and fame. This prominent league attracts trainers from all over the world and is structured differently from a typical Gym challenge.

After a championship match in Condor City, while going home, three friends meet face by face with the Alter Pokémon threat and soon after embark on a life changing journey across the Altera Region!

Meet Skye, Terra and Aster!

Flux Development Update!​

We’ve been quiet these last few months… but we’ve been hard at work this whole time!​

And so, it’s time for…​

A lot of work has gone into creating POKÉMON FLUX EPISODE 2.
Currently, we are building the Badlands, a vast new area in Northwestern Altera.
New species of Pokémon and challenges await!

Starting in Episode 2, Pokémon Battles will receive a visual overhaul!
All participants in the battle will now be animated.
The game will feel more dynamic and intense than ever before!

Lastly, it’s time for what many of you have been waiting for…
In Flux Episode 2, your loyal Starter Pokémon can achieve their fully evolved forms!
Starting with…

DAEMOTH, the Omen Pokémon!
[Grass/Psychic]

The final evolution of MOZZ. The eyes on its wings see many possible futures.
It hides away from humanity to protect their minds from going mad. However, it shares its future sight with a trusted partner…

PYROPTERYX, the Raptor Pokémon!
[Fire/Flying]

The fully-evolved form of CHIKLIT. Descended from a common ancestor of bird and dinosaur Pokémon, it glides on swift wings and leaves scorching flames in its wake.

HYDROCEAN, the Firefighter Pokémon!
[Water/Ice]

The final form of FINDOLF. A brave and resilient Pokémon that is skilled at search-and-rescue operations. The freezing rays it shoots from its palms can douse a burning building!

That’s all of the reveals for today!
Episode 2 is still a long way out. We appreciate your patience and continued support, and hope to share more as we head into 2024!​

With Gratitude and Love,
The Pokémon Flux Team

 

[gavtherav]

Looking great, thanks for the update. Looks awesome.

 

[safr]

Thank you for the news. Stay healthy dev team

 

[safr]

Cheating isn't worthless if it helps me not lose interesting in a game because I spend most of the time just doing the same stuff over and over again. Or I want to play a game for the story and the grinding just gets in between the actually enjoyable part for me. Like in Souls Games, stat raising VNs or similar. Repition for hours=Not fun, Story=Fun :3
That's why cheating is valuable! And Pokemon is a silly game after all, why not enhance it with silly methods?

I know how to. Cheat engines only for item. Other than that need something else. I can't tell you how because personally not using it. Let's respect the dev

 

[atigesking]

How to enter pokemon center

 

[strong_kermit]

Hello I would like to know if selkid is shiny lock because it's been 1 week that I reset every day about 20 hours per day and I still have not u thank you in advance for the answer

 

[AntiCanon]

Just started the game. I there a way to turn the EXP all type effect off?

 

[Ironman55555]

Heya, Flux team. Looking forward to Episode 2. With that outta the way, I wanna ask: are there any Ability Capsules and Patches, as well as the nature mints? If not, are you considering adding them into the game? I really want my fully evolved Fire starter to have Tough Claws, so I can combo it with Hone Claws and hit like a truck (cuz trust me, even tho I really want a strong starter, I don't wanna have to go through the long and annoying process that is breeding)

 

[PFG (Frankly)]

oh my, now i want this system, this is alot of recoding to make it soo good, plus artist

Flux Development Update!​

Greetings Flux fans! We’re so excited to share with you a small preview of the new areas, challenges & new species of Pokémon to discover in the forthcoming FLUX EPISODE 2!
​

LOCATION: QUELEA BRIDGE​

Perched atop a fast-flowing river, Quelea Bridge is known for its proximity to the oldest ruins in the region. A peculiar aura protects this town from Alter Pokémon attacks, making it one of the safest and most peaceful places in all of Altera!

​

LOCATION: DRAKE VILLAGE​

The epicenter of history in Altera, Drake Village is inhabited by enthusiasts who wish to understand & preserve the legacy of the Draconians, the ancient civilization that vanished from Altera 500 years ago.

Recently, it has been shrouded in a near-constant thunderstorm.

​

LOCATION: DRACOPOLIS​

The ruins north of Drake Village were once the seat of power for the ancient Draconian society. Ancient carvings and statues of dragons decorate these misty ruins, though Altera’s dragons vanished long ago, along with their masters...
​

---

NEW POKéMON REVEAL​

Introducing some of the inhabitants of Dracopolis ruins: GLUBBLE and GARBLGOYLE!

Said to have once been carved by the ancient Draconians, these stone sentinels now guard the ruins they left behind. They subsist entirely on rainwater, and if they dry up, they stop moving!
​

---

NEW EVOLUTIONS FOR FAMILIAR FRIENDS​

In Flux Episode 2, your familiar friends will be able to achieve their final forms!
Introducing the fully-evolved forms of Humborb and Squrmy: TURBOLIBRI and WURMITERRA!

​

TURBOLIBRI, the Bomber Pokémon!​

[Flying/Normal]

This hyper-speed bird is known as one of the fastest flyers in the Pokémon world. It has been observed tucking HUMBORB beneath its wings to use as emergency fuel reserves!

Evolves from NAVIBRI @ lv. 34

​

WURMITERRA, The Voracious Pokémon!​

[Bug/Ground]

No longer a timid worm, WURMITERRA uses the rotating drill bit around its neck to tunnel through earth and stone alike. The rich soil they leave behind makes high quality fertilizer!

Evolves from DURTWURM @ lv. 32
​

NEW FEATURES​

Before we part ways, we wanted to show you all a small preview of a new feature in Episode 2...
What could this be?
​

AND MORE...​

​

THAT’S ALL FOR NOW!​

We know you all have been looking forward to the next playable update.
Our team of volunteers has been working hard. It will still be some time before the update is ready.
Please wait for it patiently! Thank you!​

 

[kienevermire]

[Ironman55555]

[Thunderblast1994]
