    What do you think would be the best engine to use that could support something like Gen V Pokémon games and is free?

    your list is missing gamebryo and unity, two excellent engines for game development

    e: oh wait, I see you have unity in the misc section! it might be useful to point out that the languages it uses for scripting are c#, its own terrible language, and javascript. I think unity uses a slightly different version of js? I'm not sure, though! I've only ever used c# with it

    its own terrible language

    Unity uses C#, Boo, and Javascript aka Unityscript. Boo is not unity's it is similar to Python and Unity only supports using Boo. The support is not good. I use Unity C# and/or Javascript(UnityScript). I will continue to use Unity to create my projects its a great engine for all platforms and all sort of projects.

    Also you got the Unreal Engine but I dont see the UDK(Unreal Development Kit).

    Also as much as i hate torque i also done see TGEA, Torque Game Engine Advanced. Last time I checked it was stull supported by them

    Hey Ho-oh from which program I can make a good pokemon game and is free?
     
    what engine do you have that works for on Macs, is good for beginners, and can be used for RPGs?
     
    A solid and easy engine to use is called Stencyl. I've used it before, there is a community and tons of support. It is simple to get used to and allows you to do a lot. It is used to make iOS, Android*, Flash, HTML5*, Windows and Mac apps and games. I would recommend it to beginners. You can make anything from a platformer to a galaga style game to an rpg.

    OpenTK isn't really a "Gaming kit" as it's more of an OpenGL wrapper to Managed Languages, but I'll still add them all
     
    Are any of these good to help teach how to code? I'm trying learn JS and have been using code academy. I was just wondering if there was anything I could practice on. Thanks!

    I'm looking for something free too. Just thougt that should be mentioned.
     
    May I suggest GameStudio? I'm using it to make an engine currently codenamed Project Vulpix.
     
    It Deviantart browsing, I found something that caught my attention.

    A user named DaSpirit, has created a Pokemon engine made in Game Maker Studio has released the source code.

    Here his description:

    Here is a link:

    Please take full advantage of this engine, I'm tired of various Pokemon fangames made with RPG Maker engine.
     
    Game Maker Studio 2 has been released, it's great but GML... not so much coming from a guy that loves game maker.

    Defold is essentially Game Maker with better tools, and uses Lua.
    You can view more at https://defold.com/
     
    all the engines in the original post are non-pokemon engines. as such, those engines do not belong on pokecommunity
