[Released] Pokémon Seeker - Chapter 1

[acetraineravery]

From afar, a researcher arrives at the Isone region, tasked with researching the ancient legends of the land. Upon their arrival, they're met with catastrophe and must try to survive in this unknown land...

The game is highly inspired by the GBA aesthetic and tries to restrict itself to most of the limitations while still creating something unique and new.
​

• The game is very story heavy, with the actions of players altering the world around them, and is meant to be difficult.
• The game includes not only new regional forms but Fakemon, so even if you aren't the biggest fan of story, there's lots to see.
• There are options to enable Nuzlocke mode, a Randomizer, and you have the choice to enable or disable profanity.
• As a researcher, instead of the traditional Pokédex, you have a notebook that you can write notes in and make your own entries for Pokémon.

The game only goes up to Chapter 1 at the moment. It'll take about an hour or so, depending on how you play.
The game is made in RPG Maker XP and uses Pokémon Essentials.

Is there a discord I could join? :D Love the story so far.

 

[hotcar50]

I'm a big fan of the characters so far! very intrigued by the story too

just don't finish chapter 1 if you want to continue training/looking for new mons, if you finish the chapter you can't continue and it will show you the thank you for playing message
