What do you think would be the best engine to use that could support something like Gen V Pokémon games and is free?

your list is missing gamebryo and unity, two excellent engines for game development

e: oh wait, I see you have unity in the misc section! it might be useful to point out that the languages it uses for scripting are c#, its own terrible language, and javascript. I think unity uses a slightly different version of js? I'm not sure, though! I've only ever used c# with it

Thanks for this ^^.

This is wrong however,
its own terrible language
Unity uses C#, Boo, and Javascript aka Unityscript. Boo is not unity's it is similar to Python and Unity only supports using Boo. The support is not good. I use Unity C# and/or Javascript(UnityScript). I will continue to use Unity to create my projects its a great engine for all platforms and all sort of projects.

Also you got the Unreal Engine but I dont see the UDK(Unreal Development Kit).

Also as much as i hate torque i also done see TGEA, Torque Game Engine Advanced. Last time I checked it was stull supported by them

Um, Ho oh, can you tell me where are the game engines that require no programming, like RMXP, but are first person game makers?

A solid and easy engine to use is called Stencyl. I've used it before, there is a community and tons of support. It is simple to get used to and allows you to do a lot. It is used to make iOS, Android*, Flash, HTML5*, Windows and Mac apps and games. I would recommend it to beginners. You can make anything from a platformer to a galaga style game to an rpg.

A user named DaSpirit, has created a Pokemon engine made in Game Maker Studio has released the source code.

Here his description:

Game Maker Studio 2 has been released, it's great but GML... not so much coming from a guy that loves game maker.

Defold is essentially Game Maker with better tools, and uses Lua.

all the engines in the original post are non-pokemon engines. as such, those engines do not belong on pokecommunity
