It seems that there is some miscommunication in the community about GF and fangames, so I will try to correct something. Pokemon Uranium, which is now a "banned Pokemon game," was never actually banned; the dev removed the download links themselves. GF just requested to remove links from 3rd party sites, not the uranium site. Devs removed it to "respect Nintendo wishes," they say it themselves. Also, Pokemon uranium was released in unlucky timing, like 3-4 months before the sun and moon, and Pokemon 20th anniversary. We have some older Pokemon romchacks that were deleted, which are Pokemon Glaze, Flora Sky, and 2 more. That name, I don't remember. The thing is, those games were like 10 years old at this point. Also, there are more fangames than that that are a lot more popular. pokemon reborn, insurgence, xenoverse even pokemon infinite fusion If Nintendo is so against fangames, how is it possible that these games are not deleted? Even after their debut, Nintendo has not deleted any fangames for a very long time, and Relic Castle didn't get a Cease and Desist but a DMCA. Thoughts are different, so as far as I know, it's not really confirmed that it was sent from Nintendo. If someone wants more info, I recommend the Ayrei video about it titled "The Truth About Banned Pokemon Fangames." It's a good video.
The mainline games were visual good, I mean look at remastered mystery dungeon absolutely beautiful, it’s just people want 3d and open world now that we get the game we got now, they are as bad as people think(legends arceus looked beautiful as well) violet and scarlet could have been worked on more I guess but that was literally their first attempt at an open world on the switch in 3d, these are not the same people that make BOTW like people seem to think so they don’t have the experience, either way I think they did good for their first attempt and no legends arceus is not their first attempt because it’s not open world.
Games I personally played and can recommend (top 5): 5 - Pokemon Unbound. It's nice. A lot of needed things are hidden in houses sadly, so you HAVE to talk to everyone to advance. Great game though. 4 - Pokemon Infinity. Good game overall. Very little I can say to it. Great story. Maybe a little short but has some postgame. 3 - Pokemon Sage. Super lovely intro pixel 3d animated. Not fully completed to my knowledge, but in development for a long while. 2 - Pokemon Vanguard. Ambitious little project still in development. 1 - Pokemon Tectonic. The absolute goat. All the lovely Quality of Life that pokemon lacks. So much to do, so much love. A lot of it has been redone to be more fair and balanced, and isnt for everyone, but if you give it a try, you'll love it. I guarantee.
Loved it but after the first gym, I got a game breaking glitch after catching the static totodile which resulted in my Pokémon instantly fainting entering battle. BIG WASTE OF TIME!!! DONT TOUCH THE TOTODILE!!!
If you advertise this you can just create a petition to make Pokemon Tekken mainstream again. If it comes to realtime pokemon battles I want them to be 3d or have some form of vertical movement. The strategy game is fine as pixelart. But I would rather have a 1year development Pokemon Tekken than a 15years development Pixelgame as a fighting game.
Yeah, I feel like they’re missing good storylines for the characters. I get that they let that go to focus more on what “Pokémon is supposed to be about”- to them mainly focusing on training Pokémon from a first person pov which is why the character we choose is a cookie cutter Jane/ John character 🙄😐 they can add more element to the Pokémon, they’re just scared to gamble it especially the PG rate of the games in general since their main focus audience is 7 yo. I still feel like it’s no excuse, you can still expand on the Pokemon with great character stories and adventures. I know they also try to stay true to how the original games were first set up with the cookie cutter personal characters but it’s no excuse now- they can do so much better with the video game franchise.
