On the way you will meet many unique people, and face many challenges including the evil TEAM GENESIS who plan to release GIRATINA from the DISTORTION WORLD and use its power for world domination. Of course it's up you you to stop them, you are the protagonist after all.

Known issues

  • Final event runs early on previous patches, newest patch fixes this issue.
  • GHOST's minisprite is glitchy. It seems to mess up many other minisprites if I fix it.
  • The messed up tiles in MUERTON CITY are not a glitch, you can "fix" them yourself after you have the 8th gym badge.
  • Cities are black when looking at the worldmap anywhere other than the fly map.
  • Sometimes when you find an item in a trash can, a person nearby will disappear for a second. I have no idea why this happens.
  • DITTO won't register in the Pokédex after you catch it for some reason.
