    Overview
    You've just turned old enough to leave your hometown and embark on your journey to become a Champion. That's your dream, right? An organization with hidden motives seems to want to terrorize the Falynn region, putting you at risk from completing your goal. They experiment on Pokemon, warping them to their extremes. It's up to you to keep going, with your dream as determination in order to take down this team and restore order.

    Features
    • Gen 1-8 Pokemon, not including the ones from Legends, though they are still in the game and somewhat usable.​
    • Dynamic Level Cap.​
    • Quest System.​
    • Encounter System that doesn't require you to have seen Pokemon, it just tells you everything you can catch.​
    • Speed up the game with Q.​
    • Your choices will determine how others see you, and can determine others' fate.​
    • Talismans that can enhance certain Pokemon as a held item.​
    • A new type of Mega Evolution called Falynn Evolution.​
    • A new type of Evolution called Cybernetic Ascension (the opposite of Primal Reversion).​
    • Small buffs to certain Pokemon.​
    Please read about Pokemon Falynn Forms and Pokemon buffs here.
    You can find an Encounter list here.
    (Fair warning, a lot of my thoughts are written down in those documents).

    Really unbalanced starters. Croagunk is good as a starter, and the battle is relatively easy(even though you gave it all attacking moves). Ponyta is a guaranteed loss thanks to heatproof(it cannot damage bronzor in any significant way, all moves being ineffective while getting at most 2-shot by bronzor using a steel type move) and is weak to both other starters and with heatproof doesn't have a supereffective stab against either starter. Bronzor has no problems whatsoever and can technically beat both starters easily (despite croagunk getting astonish). I get making teams later to cover the weaknesses, but it is a very unbalanced trio. Still playing but I really recommend replacing ponyta as a starter.

    You can give Ponyta an ability Capsule to change its ability to Turboblaze to ignore Heatproof! Other than that, I'll probably buff Croagunk a bit. I have to think on what to do about Ponyta though...

    i have the battle with team aphotic how do i find juniper again i have talk to all in town when i go to battle in forest juniper shows up to not always ?
    Do you mean after the first time you fight Team Aphotic? She's further to the left. If you mean after you fight them again to save her, she's just below you, at the edge of the lake. Regardless, she'll be in Ash Lake
     
    Just wanted to say you might want to give Darkrai more than just those two moves. Managed to beat it due to having a hoothoot with insomnia...mainly because it caused Darkrai to struggle to death. It does play out as if you lost but gives you bith the exp and money for winning.

    Also you can get stuck on a tree when heading to route 3 depending on where you enter the route.

    I've reworked the fight that makes Darkrai fight you seriously if you have a Dark type or anything that cannot sleep. Fixed the tree thing as well. Thank you for reporting this!


    Hope someday this will have original character Sprite because the region is new
    That would be nice, but I doubt it. Making original character sprites is really hard
