Plot Summary

Pokémon: Sharp and Smooth is a fangame that takes place in the original Hinoa region, which is (sorta) based off of California!
A few years ago the Champion of Hinoa disappeared, and ever since, less and less people have been taking on the Gym Challenge. However, you and your friend Emilia are determined to be the first in a while to defeat all the gyms.

Characters

It's you!

It's your rival and friend, Emilia!
Energetic and friendly, she's hopeful to be able to beat all the gyms in Hinoa.

Oh, that's Alden.
While he's pretty smart with Pokémon battles, he also seems pretty arrogant.

Kayda...?
As the professor's assistant, she's been tasked to help you with your journey.

Pokémon

The Hinoa region is full of many new Pokémon, all designed by me.
My goal while making them was to make them feel authentic while still having a bit of myself in them.

But it's not just new Pokémon, there's a couple Hinoan forms too!
The Hinoa region has changed a lot because of Humans, so it's no wonder some Pokémon did too.

Project Details & Credits
This is a fangame being made through Pokémon Essentials and RPG Maker XP. It started originally as me just designing Fakemon when I was bored, but a friend asked me if I was going to make it into a fangame one day. I eventually bit the bullet, and here we are today.
While a lot of this project was made by me, the rest of it is public resources. Without them, Pokémon: Sharp and Smooth could never exist. There's also a few people who I think helped a bit with designs or gameplay decisions, so they're credited too!
