PROGRESS: Project Version 2.10.28 (Completed) - 27-10-2025

It is a massive, open-world fan game designed for players who love deep, strategic Pokémon battles. This game is not about a linear story; it's a battle-focused adventure where your goal is to conquer all 18 Gyms across two huge regions and enter the Regional Championships. Your old Pokémon knowledge won't be enough, as this game features a complete mechanics overhaul with 300 new moves and rebalanced stats for nearly every Pokémon from Generations 1-9. With an optional "Pacifist" battle mode where no direct damage is allowed, a unique EV Target System to eliminate grinding, and a dynamic world with optional story lines, this is the ultimate sandbox for strategic teambuilding and battling.

🛑Features:

➡️Massive Open World with Two Regions: Explore a gigantic, open-world featuring two complete regions and over 900 new maps to discover.

➡️Battle-Focused, Non-Linear Progression: The game is centered around battling. Your main goal is to defeat all 18 Gym Leaders and enter the Regional Championships. The main story, involving three new suspicious gangs, is optional and can be tackled at your own pace.

➡️300+ New Custom Moves: The battle system has been completely overhauled with the addition of over 300 brand new, custom-made moves, creating a fresh strategic landscape.

➡️Pacifist Battle Format: A unique and challenging battle format where you are not allowed to use any moves that deal direct damage, forcing you to rely on status, entry hazards, and passive damage.

➡️Complete Roster Rebalance (Gens 1-9): The game includes all Pokémon from the first nine generations (excluding some legendaries/paradox forms), and most have had their stats and movesets adjusted for a new competitive balance.

➡️Unique "Elevation" Mechanic: A new inherent trait called Elevation replaces abilities like Levitate. Pokémon are either "Grounded" or "Airborne" (e.g., Flygon is always airborne, Dodrio is always grounded), changing how they interact with moves and terrain.

➡️Optional "Balanced Type Chart": You can choose to play with a reworked type chart that buffs weaker types (like Ice and Bug) and slightly nerfs the Fairy type for a different meta.

➡️EV Target System: A brand new quality-of-life feature that lets you set a desired EV spread for your Pokémon, which they will then gain automatically, completely eliminating the need for traditional EV grinding.

➡️No HM Slaves Needed: HMs are compatibility-based, meaning a Pokémon like Pidgeot can use Fly as long as you have the badge, without needing to be taught the move.

➡️Multiple Save Files & Pokémon Transfer: The game supports multiple save files, and a unique feature allows you to transfer Pokémon between your different save files.

➡️Advanced Pokédex & Battle UI: The game features an advanced Pokédex that shows full learnsets and evolution methods. An in-battle screen is also available to view all active stat stages and field effects at any time.

➡️Player-Friendly Design: Route design makes most wild battles optional, and catch rates now scale based on the level difference between your Pokémon and the wild one, making it easier to catch lower-level Pokémon.

➡️Three Difficulty Modes & Optional Level Cap: Choose between three different difficulty modes and a toggleable level cap to tailor the challenge to your preference.

➡️Dozens of Original Songs: The game features a unique auditory experience with dozens of original, custom-composed music tracks.
