    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

    • 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.

    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
