Opinions on Fakemons?
 
Do you like fakemons?
Do you have an interest in fake moves/abilities?
Have you ever played a fan-made game, if yes what has been your favorite?

SpartaLazor November 15th, 2016 6:20 PM

Do I like Fakemon? Personally, no.
Do I like fake moves/abilities? I guess. As on gas they make less-useful Pokémon more useful.
Have I ever played a fan-game? Yes.
What is my favorite? Pokémon Loyalty, but that's with bias. Unbiased, probably Pokémon Obsidian.

jdprager November 15th, 2016 8:45 PM

Hell Yes, if they're Sage/Obsidian-like quality
Also Yes
Also Yes
Pokemon Uranium

Mannam2012 November 22nd, 2016 4:04 AM

To me yes I like them if they design have meaning (like what game freak do in they pokemon)

Yes if the moves and abilities are good and balanced (not any kind of bull crap)

No I didn't play fan made but I think I will made one.

But to be honest I hate when people call them "fakemon" is really stupid name and also not like give any respect. I mean yes they are fake but in they creator stay as Pokemon.

Also I love call them "fan made Pokemon" instead. It sound way better then call them fakemon.

Bluephoenix97x November 23rd, 2016 1:03 PM

I know I don't like calling them fakemon either but its the term everyone calls them by.

Mega Infernape907 November 23rd, 2016 1:42 PM

So far I've only liked the fakemon in Pokemon Uranium.
I love having fan made Moves/abilities.
I'm addicted to fan made game's.
My personal top 5 (I know you didn't ask) would be Pokemon: Phoenix rising (not yet developed), Insurgence, uranium, Reborn/Rejuvenation, Zeta/Omicron.

This is my opinion. I don't care that much for fakemon - though fanmade Delta Pokemon / Regional Variants are cool - but fanmade moves and abilities are awesome. I love trying to figure out how you'd code something like >insert fan idea here<.

In terms of coding, a new fanmade species is just a string of numbers - stats, which abilities they have, what moves they learn, what they evolve into, etc. But actual abilities and moves are interesting because I start to think of the mechanics, and how does this new idea interact with other mechanics already present in the game? Is there an interaction that the original creator might not have thought of?

UltraCadden December 17th, 2016 12:25 PM

I love Fakemon a lot
Fake moves/Abilities could be really nice
I only played a couple fakemon games but my favourite probably is Ethereal Gates
and as another point, I follow some cool Fakemon projects on deviantArt

I completely agree, new concepts are fascinating.

Why don't you come and see all the new pokemon related stuff on my wikia of which I am making a pokemon game.

Rowlet_FTW December 19th, 2016 3:29 PM

Honestly, it depends for who made the 'mon. Phoenixsong has some pretty good ones though. And I prefer the term "Fanmon". So for the rest of this post, fakemon=fanmon.
I love fan-made moves/abilities, especially the ones that actually make sense.
I never played a fangame, but I probably will play Phoenix Rising and anything you can recommend to me, but if you want some fanmon for your game, I may be able to help you there* :D


*I will only give you the sketches and my better ones, with the movesets/abilities/stats ofc

AxelTheLycanLuxio December 23rd, 2016 7:48 AM

I like Fakémon, it shows the creativity of a ton of people. I mean sure, there are new type combos here and there that I can forget, but Fakémon are still cool nevertheless.

Um, yeah, another creative mark right there. I mean sure, there are some that can be a nuisance. But some others, such as Uranium's Petrify ability, are really nice and can turn the edge of battle the official series never did.

I have not played a Fakémon game. I've seen only playthroughs on MunchingOrange's YouTube channel.

Happy Holidays from Pokemon Mind X Matter!

TigerSnivy December 25th, 2016 2:58 AM

I enjoy seeing designs people have made for there fakemons! Its amazing what some people can come up with!

TheGamingPaladin January 23rd, 2017 2:51 AM

Fan Made Pokemon, Moves and Abilities are awesome and i support their creation.

Dimenticare January 23rd, 2017 11:37 AM

No, somewhat, and not truthfully enough to really have a favorite.

I don't dislike fakemon on principle, but I'm not an overly large fan of the ones that are badly designed. There's a certain quality that canon Pokémon have, you can tell that a number of people spent a few hours (or days) designing them which seems to be unfortunately uncommon in fan creations :P

popplio25 January 23rd, 2017 1:39 PM

i do :)

i've made so many pokemon :)


but i still like the series pokemon equally as well :)

MegaMetapod January 23rd, 2017 2:55 PM

I used to not like games with them, but I have come to like a few. Btw, is there a fan-favorite version of an evolution for Jynx, it unsettles me how they unbalanced the magmar-electabuzz-trio. Also, I'm a fan of well-made eeveelutions

Cuprite (Kyu) January 23rd, 2017 6:28 PM

As long as the Fakemon feel real and/or have story relevance, I'll gladly take them.

Turjo January 24th, 2017 4:48 AM

No.I kind of hate them
If their graphics were a little real, It would be the real deal.

Jynx has an evo in pokemon Vega.

I really like fakemon sometimes.

Radiating February 25th, 2017 1:10 PM

Nope, they don't have the feel as legit Pokemon

Some are outright lazy while others overdo it and stray too far from something Game Freak would make.

Iria Animi February 25th, 2017 9:06 PM

They looks ugly and very inhuman.I don't get any bit of realness of those dirty art.

The Legacy of The Legends Creator :D February 27th, 2017 4:56 PM
