Story Overview
Seven years ago, during the events of Dark Rising 2 and Order Destroyed, a troublemaking entity named Hoopa put the god of all Pokemon, Arceus, into an endless sleep. Two of Arceus’s chosen trainers met the same fate, causing chaos and disorder in the world.
Now, humans are treated like tools or food by Pokemon, forced to either fight back against Hoopa’s rule or serve as slaves to their new master. You play as a mysterious woman who has become one of these slaves, with no memory of her life before Hoopa took over. As you work your way up the ranks, you’ll uncover memories that might help free humanity from its chains.
“She who fights with monsters should look to it that she herself does not become a monster.
And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.”
– Friedrich Nietzsche
Features
- Competitive Battles (items cannot be used in battle except held items, and players are not given a free switch-in after KO’ing their opponent’s Pokemon. For an easier experience, the latter can be toggled off and on in the options menu via set/shift mode).
- Missions & Rank-Up (players are only allowed access to the shop and healing station before and after missions. Rank Up for more rewards and supplies!)
- Pokemon from Gen 1-8
- Fairy Type and Battle Mechanics/Moves/Items added and updated to Gen 8
Beta Errors
- Player sprite glitches after opening the Shop menu (fixes after closing the Shop menu).
This does not impact the purchase or selling of items.
- Exp Bar shows the wrong amount for some Pokemon during battles.
The correct amount can always be seen in the status menu.
- Very few Pokemon like Sinistea have a space in their name during battle.
- SurgeStrike only hits 1 time instead of 2-5 times (the move’s power has been boosted to 80 to compensate)
- Numbers on HP bar can get a little weird if using an HP-Draining move that heals more than max HP.
Expected Features to be added
- EV/IV Checker
- Player’s OW Reflection
- High Grass Tile Animation
