Pokémon Emerald Rogue

released on Aug 22, 2022

Ever wondered what Pokemon might look like as a Roguelike? When you go on an adventure all routes, encounters and items will be procedurally chosen based on your progress into a run. After a certain number of routes you will encounter a random gym leader who will have a procedurally chosen team of their assigned type; as you progress further into a run gym leaders and other trainers will start using more difficult setups for their pokemon. If you can make it all the way to the champion and defeat them, then you will have completed the run! Once you complete or wipe out of a run you will go back to a hub area where you can buy permanent items and catch new "starter" Pokemon to use in the next run. As you progress further into the run, you will unlock more buildings/NPCs in this hub area to use for preparing the next run.

Really impressive technically. It's like a standalone Battle Frontier from base Emerald without all the grinding for competitive Pokemon.

This game is so sick as a concept, but playing it makes me mad

the best pokemon game unironically. get a couple friends on and have one of them play this and you will create stories

Mira que no me gustan los roguelike, peeeeeeero

Nice game to have on your phone to play when you don't have anything better to do. The Pokemon formula works wonders with Roguelike/lite mechanics.

A brilliant spin of the classic Pokemon formula. This hack streamlines the experience of a normal Pokemon game, giving you a very satisfying and challenging experience every run. The progression is very fun, the systems in place are genius, and all in all the game keeps you coming back for more. Thanks Pokabbie!
