2022 Update FAQ:
What's new?
- Well, the big thing is that there's a postgame now. There's uh...not a lot I could do with it, admittedly, since the game's world is kind of destroyed by the end of the main game. I did my best to create new content without having to make a ton of new areas.
- There's a properly organised Pokédex now. Speaking of, there's like, 8 new Pokémon lines. They're all really cool, Mak did great on their designs. There's also a couple of new evolutions of existing mons.
- The dex is now a grand total of 124 Pokémon. You can see more info about them by copying the link to the spreadsheet in the "_Credits" file of the main folder.
- A lot of sprites have been redone, such as Pistoff, Pillost, Eggception, Spectreon and many more have either received touch ups or full resprites.
- The same applies to backsprites, a lot of work went into them to make them all consistent.

Can I use my old save?
- Due to all the changes made, not only by the engine but by my optimisations, old save files would probably break somewhere, so it isn't recommended.
- It's also a 5 year old game, so playing through and refreshing your memory could be cool...

Is the game harder?
- I've tried my best to rebalance the game to make the experience as smooth as possible, and will continue trying to do so unless the general opinion tells me otherwise.
- I've rebalanced a lot of Edgemon stats and movesets, so the experience may not be exactly what it was 5 years ago.
- Early game has and probably been the hardest to balance. There's not really enough time to give players specific counters early on, but you can probably brute force it a lot with Mankey and Gorelett? If you didn't start with Riolu anyway.
- I haven't tested specific team comps so it's all a little subjective, but I look forward to hearing feedback!

Is there any new features?

- Well, there's no haunted mansion DLC, but there is a battle tower-esque building in its place I've dubbed the Belltower. Test your wits against tough opponents for a chance to win fabulous prizes! (Postgame only)
- A couple of new moves exist, like a Fury Swipes clone that's flying type, or a signature move that fires a button. I hope you'll try out all sorts of team members in the Belltower to see what's new!
- Speaking of trying out team members, there's a gauntlet at the end of the game, for those daring enough to try. Once postgame is complete, take a trip to the Blood Lake...

Where is (x)?
- Move Relearner is in Blackheart City Game Corner (regardless of time period).
- Silvally discs are also sold in the Game Corner.
- Stone vendors are in Eerie City in postgame.
- Once postgame is complete, you can get Rare Candies infinitely at the Belltower.

Are we ever going to get a wiki for this game? If not just a list of all fakemon and if/when/how they evolve?

Also I don't know why but I totally expected this game to be serious but the start had me in tears and now I find myself going the genocide route. I tried killing my bro but I couldn't :'(

Omg, I walked past the 'cops' with my shiny Pistoff and they took it away D:

Hey, I just wanted to say that I really loved this game. My only complaint was I panicked when a certain thing happened. Maybe include a disclaimer saying you'll be able to
get your pokemon back?

Thanks for all the laughs!

Hands down one of my absolute favourite games of all time! The music choice is amazing, graphics are well done and the story is unbelieveably deep, well written and often fun too. As a player who likes to peek in every corner I found a lot of interesting and fun little things, which I really appreciate. Overall I really enjoyed this game and would love to play more of your games.

Hello when I downloaded this game I loved it and I finished it days ago and I was wondering if it is going to see the second part or new things are going to come out because that would molar and I would love it and also I was wondering if there is a second part you will put all the medals and the history will be the same or will you change something? Greetings and I hope you respond soon

Hey, big fan of the game so far (I've only played for an hour-ish tho). I found something though, that felt weird. I caught a Mankey, and when I look at it in my party, it says it's Pokedex No. 56. However, when I look in my pokedex, Mankey is not even listed there, not even when I search for him. In my pokedex, Sneasel is listed as pokemon No. 56 though. So his spot is actually filled. Is this a bug or?

I feel the same way, plus the Fakemon were really cool! (the suffocating pillow one, the grass type puppy, the ghost type Reuniclus, Boombowl -steel type Electrode- and most importantly, Pistoff -the word play was amazing!-

not having any tms is sorta risky. quite a few pokemon dont have very diverse move pools without them. I guess I'll have to find out how this game manages without them

i really liked this fangame, it feels pretty fleshed out and i like being able to backtrack and see how NPCs change their dialogue to reflect events. i do have one criticism, though:
i'm not really a fan of how the ending treated bro... it feels kind of like a cop-out to make him have almost the exact same motivation and characterization as fang. i guess it says something about how they're brothers and not as different as they seem, but going through a character arc just to restart it with the next character feels bland to me.
other than that, it was really enjoyable, and i ended up putting more hours into it than i expected. if it's okay with the devs, i'd like to make a tvtropes page dedicated to this fangame! it'll probably take me a while as i'll have to go back through the footage i recorded for different plot points. i also want to make fanart eventually, since i've been doodling fang as i played.
i may or may not have made an account to make this comment

this is the first post ive made in like a couple of years haha
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, I sometimes kinda forget I made this game at times.
Bro turning into a Fang clone was a cop-out, yeah, but it was only really done for the sake of a joke. Development for the game was pretty much rapid-firing ideas and implementing whichever ones we felt could have ended up entertaining. Some jokes landed, some jokes didn't, it happens. The fact that any character arcs happened at all was just kinda the result of making things as we went, I think.
But yeah, making a TVTropes page would be completely okay (i once tried to look to see if we had one out of curiosity tbh), and I'd definitely be super interested in seeing any fanart. Best of luck!

Not sure if this project is still receiving updates / support or not, but I've encountered a bug in coldsteel city.

I lost to magizard, after which I was able to move freely while fang's sprite remained fixed (I was invisible, kind of a ghost). If I went to fight magizard again, I had to move to the exact right position in order to trigger the event. Following the fight things seemed to return to normal, except now I'm softlocked as I can't complete the coldsteel gym (Fang's sprite is directly in front of the gym leader facing him, preventing talking to him).

All in all I absolutely love this game, but I'm really hoping for some answers as I've already sunken 12 hours into it!

I think I heard of this bug happening long ago, but admittedly I haven't so much as touched the dev folder of this game for years.

I don't know if I'll go about making a newer version with bugfixes later down the line, but for now, just DM me your save data (should be in your C:/User/[name]/Saved Games folder) and I will fix it for you.
