Journey through the region of Ibara, on your quest to become the strongest Trainer - Pokémon League Champion!

What could they want this time, and what does this bode? One thing's for sure...

It's time you get your revenge...

Sorry, it's nowhere near completion and it won't be completed even by the end of this year 😓
I'd say a rough estimate of the progress is as follows:
Trainer sprites: 80%
Outdoor maps: 85%
Indoor maps: 0%
Story writing: 0%
Coding the story and trainers into the game: 0%
As you can see, there's still a long way to go. Your patience is much appreciated!

is this a sequel to a previous game? The synopsis implies there was another game before this one.

Given this is still a early version of the game, I know that this hasnt been considered yet but I hope we'll see things like ability capsules/patches at some point. I think having them as crafting recipies that are relatively difficult would be a good way to keep them being too easilly obtained, same with nature mints.

Hi there! I wanted to ask a question
In this game the story is unilateral or your action influence the story and character development?

Hi! There are some dialogue choices you can make that will affect how a scene will play out, but the overall story path is a linear one.

Recently started playing this and overall having a blast but just really wanted to drop by and say: Thank you for actually making there be a point to playing triple triad <3 I like the little card game but normally in fangames it feels like a waste of time or like there's no real point to bothering with it since the only stakes are usually the cards themselves but you adding that 'win 100 matching' side quest actually makes me happy to seek them out, like there's a purpose to it and yeah. Been having a blast!

Also. Really love the early mon selection, possibly because of my Alola mon bias but having access to solid bug mons so soon as well as the weak but interesting Morelull makes me very happy and I just wanted to share that <3

Thank you so much for playing and enjoying the game! <33 I'm really fond of Triple Triad too! I guess I was inspired by games with elaborate minigames that can be whole games by themselves, causing the player to ignore the main quest haha ^^

I used Morelull/Shiinotic in one of my test playthroughs and was pleasantly surprised at its survivability and how well it performed in many battles. So glad to see you noticing it and having fun with it!

Thank you so so much for the kind words!! <33 Carbink is a rare encounter (or you'll have to go through a rather tedious trade to get it ehehe) so kudos to you for obtaining one! It makes me really happy to see players like you journeying with and growing to love the lesser-appreciated Pokémon too ^^

I just finished the game and I must say, I loved it! The characters are really cool and most importantly a mc who is not ten years old! Oh and Kane really caught my attention, he is mc rival but he doesn't target gym badges which is very interesting and completely different from what we usually see. Champion appearing in early game?! now that's really interesting anyway, I really loved the game.

Have a nice day!

Hey there, I just wanted to drop by and say amazing work with the game so far, it's certainly got a lot of charm and I'll keep following it's updates.
However I've encounted a small problem. I generally play without items and can get sucked into grinding a little too much.
This ended up with my average level being 60 after the 4th Gym, it's at that point when I decided to do the Jangmo quest, unforutnately because it's level scales to 61 off my team but acts like a traded pokemon, it does not follow orders during the Skarmory fight, even 3 Max potions are quite a stretch with it disobeying regularly.
I eventually lucked through it with lot's of Para luck and it actually not disobeying, but it took a solid 40 - 50 fights or so.

I assume most people wouldn't run into this issue, but I wanted to point it out just so you know. :D

Hi, thank you so much for playing! Yours is a rare issue indeed, but rest assured it'll be fixed in the next patch, where disobedience mechanics will be removed... the bad news is that said patch will most likely be released alongside Act 2 of the game, years from now. Apologies for the inconvenience! I'm so glad you managed to beat the Skarmory after so long! Thank you for persevering <3

So discovered this game today, seems amazing visually. I got to the starter selection, seems like interesting choices for them, why did you pick the ones you picked? Also looking at the guide, on Totodile has changes, that the case?

I am fond of the reptile theme! The 3 starters suit the protagonist because of their cool and snappy image, with a cute side to them too ^^
Totodile isn't changed, but Feraligatr in this game learns some additional moves at level 1 (to make it comparable to Charizard and Sceptile), whereas it doesn't in the official games.
