[Developing] PokeFrontier

[PokemonFrontier]

PokeFrontier is a fan made game. The game will have all of the regions up to generation 5. There are many plans that we have for this game we strive for a modern pokemon game filled with content and containing all the story lines from the pokemon anime. This is a personal project this game is created by fans for fans we will gladly accept any donations to keep this game running when we finish it. You will have a lot of options in the game such as choosing your own ending there will be several tasks that will affect the ending of the game. You will be able to join team rockets or oppose them. You will be able to create your own secret base or gym and battle against other trainers. We will also be having underground mining where you can dig for fossils and gems with your peers! As you travel the kanto region you will meet several characters from the anime. Correlating with events from the pokemon anime expect to find a few insiders and events that occurred in the show ;) this are some of the small things that we are going to have in our game now lets go on forward with the media shall we? ^^

You will be able to join team rockets or oppose them.

That's all the info I needed. I've been waiting for a long time for a game that includes the option to join Team Rocket or play as a regular trainer. Other features sound cool as well. I'll definitely be keeping my eye on this.
