The spanish fangame community is cooking next year

[Leo-pez]

Ooh Pokemon Umbra looks really beautiful Pokemon game with an unique Pokemon designs and art style can't wait i'm so excited to play it in next year, merry christmas and a happy new year everyone! 😍❤‍🔥

[ReallyReallyTrying]

Who could've expected that the fangame community would completely shame GF into how you actually do good games 😅

[domehammerman]

what I need is a list of good fan games, that are finished. I had very much fun playing vanguard only to find out, that it isn't finished yet 😢

[Mrsarioc]

Spanish community is really heading the lead in pokemon fangames this year (they actually made a Direct Event like Nintendo for Arceus sake!), and my favorites so far that were showed were Pokemon Atlas (great game guys, like Ayrei said, everything is beautiful and alive), Pokemon Royal (lets see how they can fix it) and Pokemon Edas (I wasn't convinced in the direct, but I'll give it a chance to see what can offer). Oh!! And I know he didn't said, but if someone here played Pokemon Reminiscencia before, they released DLC of the game!!

Thanks for the video! Love this community. Took down a few notes to play some of these eventually

There is one rom hack that I played in my childhood. It may not be the best pokemon rom hack right now, but it still has a very special place in my heart.


Pokemon Light Platinum

[EnigmaticGentleman]

Another gen 4 remake to look out for is "Platinum Gen 5 graphics", a very WIP name but it doesn't just overhaul the graphics. The creator has shown off new areas, almost every existing area being overhauled, new events, Renegade Platinum compatibility, list goes on. Doesn't look like it'll release next year though.

hello, its your pokemon odyssey promoter here.

i dont think i can recover after playing pokemon odyssey. an ok story with ok characters elevated by great soundtrack and level design (bc its from a diff. game, yes, but still)

with metaphors release i dont think theres a better time to enter the PO>EO>atlus games pipeline

2:42 - Swinub named Truffles... is that a reference to Ashen Frost? :D

[hectorlecastor]

do you know when pokemon Z will get updated ? great video btw i cant wait for these games to come out

[Slixey]

I love your vast range of games that most people don’t know about. Can you maybe do a video on games for mobile. I play most times on Delta for iOS as I’m on the go a lot. Thanks in advance.

Can't wait for a new update for pokemon Armonia (Harmony)

[bbøy_fanboy]

0:12 What's the game in the intro?

[iuppiteratreides]

[Mr.WolfKing]

WAIT WAIT!? POKEMON BERILO ENGLISH IS COMING OUT TOMORROW?

[Hey_i_am_A-D]

Top 1 to look for:- Pokemon vanguard

[drewnaquita]

Also pokemon armonia is releasing and it's 100% complete

[lushkenplays]

Apologies if this sounds like a silly question, but the game at timestamp 0:43, what game is that? I don't know the name of it and have been really interested in taking a look at it
