    Hello, everyone! I'm new to PokeCommunity and this is my first visit, so please be kind and supportive! My first encounter with Pokémon was in 2016 when I played a hacked version of Pokémon FireRed on an emulator. It was straightforward, essentially letting me choose my favorite anime character as my starter Pokémon, and I had a blast. Later, I discovered the original Pokémon Pikachu and Crystal, completing them both on an emulator, enjoying those adventures just as much. From that point on, I've been aspiring to create my own monster-catching game, craving my very own adventure. Unfortunately, due to certain events (to put it simply, within another Pokémon hacking and fan-game community, I located an outdated yet simple Pokémon fan-game engine, translated it into my native language, only to face public mockery from another translator of a competing engine), I lost the drive to continue and my affection for Pokémon waned. But now, I've resolved to return. I shouldn't let one person's bitterness towards Pokémon impact me so heavily; perhaps a change in community will do me good.

    (Quick note: The following part contains a bit of promotion. If moderators or anyone finds it unsuitable, I deeply apologize and am willing to remove this section if requested.)

    On a side note, during this period, I came across Tuxemon, a fully open-source monster-catching game under Creative Commons, which I grew quite fond of. I've even translated parts of it into my language (though it's only a portion at present). I believe Tuxemon addresses what I felt was lacking in Pokémon, and since Tuxemon encourages free modification, I've decided to develop a Tuxemon-based fan-game in the future.

    Thank you for taking the time to read all this!

    Regards,

    Hello DavidLiang11292, and welcome to the forums!
    It is great to see new members join PokéCommunity!
    Which starter did you pick ?

    I am sorry to hear this happened to you... and I wish you the best of luck to have a good time here.
    You might want to check the Fan Games section, here!
    I am interested to hear more on that Tuxemon fan game project and its features!

    Thank you for your response. In Pokémon Crystal Version, my first Pokémon was Cyndaquil. If you want to learn about Tuxemon, you can search for it on Github.

    I love Cyndaquil's line! I picked this starter in Gold. Great Fire type Pokémon. But my top favourite is and has always been Charizard, since I played Red! ^^

    My favorite Pokémon is Squirtle; it's very cute and its final evolution is also cool!

    Oh, Charizard is great too, but I prefer Blastoise even more!
     
    Hello there and welcome to the PC! Real quick, I merged your last two replies together since the posts were back-to-back, but all you need to do to respond to multiple people at once is to just hit the Reply button on any post you want to respond to beforehand.

    Anyway, this game you mentioned sounds interesting. How big of a game is it? I can't imagine it's all that big if it's freeware, but I've also never heard of it before, so I don't know.

    Alright, thank you for your suggestion!

    Indeed, Tuxemon might not have a massive player base and is still under development, but it is already in a playable state (though it remains unstable and could have bugs) and offers two distinct game versions for players to choose from (unlike the Pokémon series, where the two versions share largely similar storylines, the narratives in these two Tuxemon versions are completely different).
     
    Right, I have a question. If I'm looking for a modified Pokémon game that I played before but forgot the name of, where should I go?

    Let me briefly describe it here:
    If my memory serves me correctly, it was essentially the standard Pokémon Emerald, but it featured map tiles styled after Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen. I played it around 2019. I really enjoyed the aesthetic of FireRed/LeafGreen; I found it looked more comfortable than the Emerald version. If anyone knows the name of this version, I would be truly grateful!

    Sorry, I do not have the answer, but you can ask in the dedicated section, the Fan Games', where you will get more attention!
