Niall and Nephele

You awaken in front of a girl named Destiny, who claims to have found you unconscious in a nearby forest. Other than your own name, all of your memories seem to be lost. With no other options, you accompany Destiny to the Vanguard Academy, a school designed to transform novice Pokémon Trainers, into professionals with the goal of defending the region from threats known as Renegades, Pokémon Trainers who refuse to abide by the new laws set in place.

I'm on Chapter 7, I think, and for some reason I gained the powers of Jesus Christ Himself by walking on a bridge on route 6. I'm going to assume that's not supposed to happen? If I click it tells me "You can't the Avaros Flute yet", which doesn't make much grammatical sense either.

Help! I enjoyed playing the game so far, but I am stuck in Blackstone Cavern. My infinite repel is not working anymore and I get encounters at every step. What to do?

Soft reset your game- manually. Then just go back into your bag, equip/set the repel again. Should work just fine.

Hey Ayrei. Loved playing your game. It was certainly the best and my first Pokémon Fangame I've ever played.

Want to know if I can expectate a new version of the game in 2024 yet, with chapter 27 part II and the other chapters.

I'm afraid if I delete the game .exe, it would erase my saves.

I still don't know how to pass a save to a newer version, but your game is worth it the work.

Hope to get a answer,

Bru.

If you join the discord server, I believe there should be a tutorial on how to update the game while keeping the save

tl;dr, your saves are safe from updates as they are not in your game folder, unless you are on joiplay. See below for more details:

Unless you are on Joiplay, your saves are located somewhere else on your hard drive (this isn't the case of all games, but it is for most actually). Specifically, you can find them in AppData>Roaming>Pokemon Vanguard. AppData is a hidden system folder on your PC, so you have to type %AppData% in the Windows Search Bar (it is next to the Windows button the bottom far left corner of your task bar) to find it.

Hope this helps you!
