Project Vanguard is a Fangame primarily developed by Ayrei, PrismShrimp, and Rexaura

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 don't know if it's just where I am in the game, or if I somehow patched it wrong, but... wild pokemon have been giving me only a single xp point. And uhm. That's a bit more of a hard mode than I think ANYONE will ever need.
I was trying to train a lvl 14 Swablu in uh... 'Souten', and all the pokemon I fight only give 1xp. Just so you know.

You've probably hit a level cap. Your other Pokemon will receive more xp.

Therein lies the issue. I only have one badge, yeah, but all my other pokemon are level 16 and 17. To be fair, I haven't played in a while, so if the caps are new, that might be the issue. But I'm just. Confused.

I have an issue, where i can't open my bag or purchase items in the shop, as there is some sort of problem related to the EXP Candies. Is there a way to work around this?

Assuming you weren't the person in discord with a similar name and same issue, you can load the game from 1.1 (available in the discord), delete the item, and then update to 1.2

Let me know if there is anything you need help with such as testing/etc. If you want some more feedback on the game, here is the original video where I featured it on my channel! Cheers!

I am interested in translating it and updating it in certain things such as the pokemon and mechanics that are used now, such as writing directly from the keyboard, things like that

translating the game to other languages is something I am interested in, but with the current state that the game is in, I am making constant updates to earlier parts of the story each update. I just don't think it's a good idea at the moment.

I have a question? Will I be able to eventually capture every starter? Or do I have to pick one and only have that one?

And another issue. I cannot go past the bridge at Coinsta park for the Lillipup quest. I get blocked as if there were Kecleon there. Do I need to solve that to continue with the story?
