The Most Emotional Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rom Hack Broke Me! 

Now we need a reverse mystery dungeon hack: PMD, but you're a pokemon turned into a human that has to save the human world from the evil TAXES.

That story was absolutely a 10/10. Feels like it captures the PMD vibe perfectly and doesn't needlessly overcomplicate things or drift into edgy fanfic territory.

15 years ago as a teenager I was bawling my eyes out playing the original game myself. Today as a grown ass adult I'm bawling my eyes out watching this romhack spiritual successor. Thank you, Zwiggo, for showcasing all these games with dedicated narration.

The writer of this ROM clearly gets the storytelling style of PMD, and it makes me so happy to see. On top of that, your narration of the story is incredible. I never expected to cry over hearing someone narrate a pokemon game, but almost anything PMD can bring out so much emotion in me.

The ending where Rockruff and Sobble wished for one wish to see us again once their life as pokemon ended and we see them reincarnated as our friends in Uva Academy, I teared up so much. Absolutely beautiful this Rom Hack capture what mystery dungeon is so well.

I liked that the plot had a red herring - with the previous partner mentioning Toxtricity and Scrafty, and starting with an 'S', I initially thought the original partner was going to turn out to be Wartortle, back when she was a Squirtle. She even gave you a sendoff before the final battle!

A wise man once said ''Uhh, I dunno. To be evil, I guess? Kidnapping is what villains do.'' 26:44 The wisdom this Rockruff possesses, is immense

Who else guess that "lord maelstrom" was Eternatus once they heard about the wishing stars?

that ending with the short picture of their reincarnations really gave that ending that extra oompf to make me sad but like the happy kind of sad kinda

It's clear as day that the person behind this rom hack is a true PMD fan. Everything about this rom hack captures the vibes of the games perfectly. If I wasn't told this was a hack, I could easily believe this was an official game because of how it hits every mark of the games. I love how they incorporate elements across all of the game, like the harmony scarves from Super, not to mention the connections of Alolan Ninetales being a descendent of the original one from Rescue Team, and Wigglytuff being the ancestor of the TDS guildmaster. Adding in Gen 8 elements like Dynamax was also amazing. I really do hope we'll get another Mystery Dungeon game one day.

I love Tapu Koko being an absolute troll to the player and partner.

The fact in this game the player has actual dialog is amazing

I'm 28 years old and have played all the Mystery Dungeon games and maaaannn let me tell you, this game touched my soul and made my eyes waterfalls

28:05 - "Nobody could be there, it's just a drop to the sea!" Bro... there's a whole type NAMED "Flying"... the heck you mean 😂

Man... Look at me. 16 years old, and i'm bawling my damn eyes out over Pokemon Mystery Dungeon... These games have touched me in ways no other game has... Other than Xenoblade 3... They taught 4 year old me how to laugh, cry, and... Well... Get me through the horrible system that was foster care. The bonds i built up with these damn pixels... Its something i wish Spike Chunsoft actually started doing again instead of pumping out Danganronpa after Danganronpa...

22:31 super mystery dungeon mentioned !!! :0 the harmony scarves!

Finally! I was hoping mystery dungeon would get hacks eventually

That... that ending. Especially the picture at the end, had me in tears...

This rom hack is simply amazing! With the story and that ending, I can't but just clap with this masterpiece.

I almost cried😢. What a wonderful, heartfelt, wholesome game and message. Thank you for playing and sharing! ❤

I figured out the partner twist pretty early but this story genuinely feels like a official pmd story

Omggg this genuinely made me cry especially at the end, whoever made this rom hack definitely deserves their flowers and I am hoping to see them do more !! Also the way this video is made is super good, as usual

BRO THAT ENDING FINNA MAKE ME CRY WTF IS THIS

absolutely underrated rom hack. music goes hard (especially final boss theme), storyline is pretty cool, love this sm

I really thought the plot twist was going to be time travel (probably intended by the developer) but then I got to the end and started bawling

One good PMD every ten years would be enough

I had to fight back the tears so hard, that ending was so heartfelt

PMD ending always kill me 😭

I literally cried seeing the last image.

That was probably the cutest way to end the video love the rom hack and love how it actually *FEELS* like what a PMD game would play out

It certainly has the same top tier storytelling, I did not expect to cry over this. It was beautiful

This is one of the best Mystery Dungeon ROMs I’ve ever seen. Amazing writing that truly captures the original Mystery Dungeon storytelling and very charming characters as well!

Rom hacking is genuinely such a treasure for people that enjoy older games. Genuine respect to the people that make them and make them available to people, even the ones that aren’t great.

This was amazing one of the best PMD Mystery Dungeon rom hacks I've ever seen. Glad to see this game getting more rom hacks

In the end i had tears in my eyes 😢

Man, i need to play some of these mystery dungeon ROM hacks, they seem so good

I didn’t know PMD romhacks were a thing, but I’m glad they are. Not only is Sky one of the best Pokémon games, period, this actually looks so beautiful.

This story is an utter masterpiece and the way your commentary worked with this video was beautiful zwiggo! Thank you.

Bro, if there was any pokemon that I would poor one out for it would be grovyle.

I love the story so much, I have rewatched the entire video 3 times to fully sink into the emotions. Love it, I look forward to more of these

An amazing rom hack that feels so faithful to the originals. It has the same feeling as finishing a pmd game I love it.

I had legit said "i want to fucking cry" and "i cried for Basil's grief BUT NOT FOR THIS???" I legit wonder if im heartless at times

Who's cutting onions?? 😢 i love these games so much. But they are always tear jerking. I remember playing explorers of sky sky my brother had to ask what happened.

man... this brings back so many memories of growing up playing pokemon mystery dungeon of explorers of time/darkness/sky... i'm really hoping for a remake, or really just a new game in the series...

I would have really thought this was an official game if told me, especially with a story and sprites like this!

Epic and absolutely amazing story, that twist with sobble at the end along with the dynamax battle was amazing. Really wish they still made mystery dungeon games like this

I am glad this came up in my feed. I have a new rom hack to check out and enjoy. I am so happy it has an original story to boot!

That was great. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to see this story without having to play a goddamn game style I dislike. It's a pretty amazing story, but I have to give the creator all the credot for including so many Pokémon with S to mess with us after the Tapu Koko stuff. Silvally and Squirtle, specifically, were great for trying to make the player think they were the forgotten partner.

Really glad I went and played this game, it genuinely felt rather moving even if part of me wishes they had just brought Sobble with him back to the human world the first time, I think in the end it all worked out for the best.

What an amazing story, like i don't know who i gotta tell at gamefreak or Pokemon to hire but this rom hack is amazing! I loved every second of the story and I really would love to see games have story like this again and be full of content etc. etc.. Zwiggo narratting to is just another piece of the cake that Im eating great work!

Damn that was a good watch. Thanks for showcasing this game!

This is such an amazing production. Thanks to zwiggo and the game devs for this brilliant fan sequel

Definitely a wonderful story. I only listened to this in the background and was teary eyed at certain points. This has a wonderful story to it that brought me back to the mind set of actually playing the PMD games again. Love it.

What is it about the mystery dungeon games that make me tear up.. even this one that’s not an actual Nintendo PMD game, the narrative made me tear up. Very well done video zwiggo, keep it up! Love seeing you put all this hard work and time into all these romhacks!

This was amazing! Like all mystery dungeon games, i, of course, cried at the last scene. But the pacing of the video was very well done made it to where you still gain an attachment to the partner. But the period of time between chapters wasnt too long

I just started the video and let me tell you....the story and set up is 10/10, like the small details, so good, and it really make you feel like "what if...." kind of feeling.

The absolute bait and switch, i was completely convinced squirtle was our partner, that twist was really cool

Wow need to play right now! I remember getting a used copy of Red Mystery Dungeon and I had no idea what it was about. The games are so fantastic.

As a child playing pmd i dont think anything has ever topped what i felt finishing the game for the first time- i cried so hard 😅😢 oh to go back and experience it again for the first time This is such a lovely successor, and the sobble reveal really tugged at my heart.

Oh this was such a lovely, lovely story

Thank you. This was a great narration of the story.

I watched the first 5 minutes of this video and immediately went to play this because it seemed so interesting. Glad I did, what a story!

i just finished it and i gotta say it was perfect a short but perfect rom hack it got the sadness just perfect and with a perfect ending

My my this is the best pokemon story i've ever heard, Iam really excited!! My heart is filled with inspiration!! Thank you for making this video!! Now i'll pray and do my best to make the most brilliant novel in my life!!

You know...woth all the pokemon this almost feels like it could be connected to gen...8 pmd while referring to a gen 7 prequel which is still a sequel to the entire pmd...and its just beautiful

the ending made me tear up, what a great rom hack!

I'm crying my eyes out- please, I need a sequel like the picture shown in the end-

I haven't watched this all but I can tell the twist is gonna be about your old companion, rockruff wasn't named Santa

The creator must be cooking the paldea version of this story xD

This rom hack was so well done it could be a mainline game and hits the feels just right

Absolutely loved everything about this romhack. Huge props to the creators! Got me crying real good in the end

I'm surprised that Silvally didn't come in at the end.

"Pal Forest" oh no, them. *The Pals.* :V

Look, 13 years ago I discovered the PMD franchise and did play almost all of them. I still can remember crying at the credits because the journey was over and either we would leave our partner behind or - in case of PSMD - vice versa. Now, 24 years old, I sit here and start sobbing uncontrollably throughout this because I feel the exact same as I used to, although this time the farewell might be final. I'm not good with farewells you know? Knowing that the both partners you left behind are now holding on to your legacy and work together from that point onwards didn't help much either sadly. 😢 But nevertheless thank you for showcasing this rom-hack.

15:38 yep that looks like my morning sometimes, I have 5 goats 😂

I remember the first Mystery Dungeon for the Gameboy Advance became very difficult as a child and I never finished it but the later games I did. I always enjoyed the concept of these games and a hack is a great idea

If I’ve learned anything, it’s that if you press on. You might just see those freinds you’ve met again someday.

I hope that the new Next Gen Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game is amazing, and maybe have more options please? Don't be like Gates to Infinity, be like Super Mystery Dungeon (but with more non-starter choices, as Rockruff is a good choice, as well as bringing back old choices likw Axew, Shinx and Skitty)

Looks fire, may give it a try if I remember to do so

Ok, whoever made this hack is getting a Digital Cuppa Tea from me. _Team Brawl consisting of 3 of my favourite Pokemon, including Poison and Fighting types which are my tied No.1 favourite types. _*_Chef's Kiss_*_ I'm inlove!_

That was insane, what a story!

Woah I know what my next game is gonna be.

I was waiting for PMD alpha for a while. That'd be the best Mystery dungeon hack if it ever releases.

Im sorry, im only a few minutes in, but i cant finish the video, i gotta play this, cant get spoiled. Thanks for showing me this, explorers of sky is well within my top 10 games of all time

no way i just watched 1 hour of pmd

need a Digimon Mystery Dungeon version..🎉

10/10 almost make me cry, very good video

I will drop a like and run away to play this myself. Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

I didn't think this rom hack was gonna hit like the original, It's been so many years since a PMD has made me cry, This was so well written. It took me back to the feelings I had when I played the original.

Man can't believe we got both a super mystery dungeon and red rescue team reference when meeting ninetails

The hardest thing about watching this was trying not to tear up at least. I didn't but damn there were strong emotions there

This video felt like 10mins, 😭 how was this masterpiece an hour long?? Loved it so much.

i cried playing all versions from red, blue, time, and darkness! and on this romhack i also cried. PMD is so beautiful im glad it was given this futuristic twist

Zwiggo came back from the Shadow Realm to bring us this😁🔥

me before watching this video: omg a pmd fan game! me mid way: i forgot this is pmd me at the end of the video: unlimited water works

Omg finally a video let’s goo

21:26 giving me flashbacks of super mystery dungeon

This whole thing feels like an official game! This is so good!

I’ll never forget the short animated series based on these games 🤧

I loved this rom. I realized the plot twist halfway though but it didn't make the game any less enjoyable. I've always wanted a PMD game in which the hero actually chooses to go back to their world instead of staying in the pokemon universe, so I was pleasantly surprised when I understood that this rom was about that. And the ending was really sweet and hopeful.
