    🐛 Special thanks to .thewaffles., floofy_amari, friends and family members for playtesting and finding plenty of bugs 🐛

    Made using:
    RPG Maker XP & Pokémon Essentials v20.1

    Game description:
    Welcome to the Pacatus region, a small island known for its diverse environments, cosy towns and friendly citizens. You and your childhood friends, twins Xavier and Vivian, just accepted Professor Selina Parsley's invitation to help her as field research assistants. Thanks to this, you will get your first Pokémon and have the opportunity to explore the wonders of Pacatus. Along the way, you'll meet numerous people, capture many Pokémon, challenge skilled Gym Leaders, and continually evolve as a trainer.

    Pacatus was a peaceful region for centuries, but recently dark clouds started to loom over it. Will you rise to the challenge, and put an end to the evil Team Epialtes' (Eh-Pee-Ahl-Tees) schemes?

    Unveil the answers in Pokémon Nightmare!

    We attempted to create a game that is quite simple and resembles a standard Pokémon experience, yet simultaneously we wanted it to be a little different and engaging. The story has a mysterious feeling, but is not edgy. Difficulty-wise, we tried to make the game challenging, but not nightmarish - you can definitely try to Nuzlocke it, but if you only want to see cool fakemon and sweep through the story it is also possible!

    Features and plugins:
    • around 15 hours of gameplay,
    • hand-picked Pokédex with almost 300 official Pokémon from all generations,
    • 23 new regional variant lines and 1 fakemon evolution (all of them also have new signature moves!),
    • 7 new mega evolutions,
    • refreshed UI graphics,
    • custom trainer sprites,
    • single and double battles,
    • improved battle AI,
    • toggleble level caps (although we recommend leaving them on),
    • relearning moves in summary menu (you can also forget HM moves!),
    • speed up button (Q),
    • checking stats and other stuff in battles (press M or N button in after clicking "Fight" in the battle menu),
    • encounter list plugin,
    • advanced Pokédex plugin,
    • EXP all (although not from the start).

    Approved!
     
    The story feels promising, and while a fangame with an antagonistic Darkrai isn't an unusual concept, the aim to make it reasonably challenging and having several QoL available would help making it an enjoyable journey.

    Let me guess, the sole Fakémon evolution is an Eeveelution?
     
    I downloaded the game, unzipped it or whatever the term is used on zarchiver, put it on joiplay and I pressed it to play it and it gave me a script error 004, and I have no idea what's wrong, is it something to do with the game itself?

    Sorry, but the game is meant to be played on PC. I think it's possible to make it work on Joiplay, although I have no idea how to do it.

    Just came across an oddity. The regional Ratticate's backsprite is that of the regular Kantonian Ratticate when sent out in battle. Also, are nature mints present in the game? Thank you!

    Thank you for reporting this! New version with proper fix is up. Also, the Mystery Gift should work now!

    Actually, someone on our Discord server wrote this: So incase anyone is wondering, you can indeed play nightmare on joiplay. You need rpg maker plugin 1.20.28 ( not the latest version, it's buggy). Although You can download the latest version of joiplay (plugin and app are 2 different things.) From settings, change the window size to 1920 x 1080 for really smooth performance ( ig the performance also depends on device).

    Also, version 1.2.6 is out!

    Thank you! Do you have any idea as to where I can get a dragon scale? The department store in Ferrum only has the Dragon fang on sale.
