Hey everyone.​

I started this project back in August 2017 and the last version was released in January 2018. I've worked on it on and off for the past 4 years and I'm happy to say that I'm finally ready to release a new version. V0.3 is a huge step up compared to the last version and one could say it's almost a different game.
As the name suggests, you'll play as your favorite officer of the law: Looker.
You'll begin your International Police Officer training, while a complex scheme involving high ranking Kanto politicians is lurking in the shadows. Your future will be full of surprises and shocking twists that will shift the regional balance of power.
Are you ready to jump in the adventure of a lifetime?

Storyline:​

Spoiler:

The game begins with you choosing your starter Pokemon from Prof. Oak, the head of the International Police Kanto branch.
You then start your training to become an international Police officer, you'll need to complete various tests that will be presented to you by Elite Officers. These Elite Officers are in every city (they aren't in a specific area, you'll have to find them) in the Kanto Region and they follow an 8 rule code. Each Elite Officer will test you on one of these values which are: Faith, Bravery, Intelligence, Strength, Clarity, Wisdom, Honor, and Patience.
There are also Gym Leaders that you can challenge, but they are optional.
As you proceed with your training, you'll soon find out that Team Rocket is on the rise and they're getting ready for a complex plan to "save" Kanto, but what is there to save if all is lost?
