Pokémon Metal

Overview

INTRODUCTION:

Pokemon Metal is a non-canon fanmade Pokémon game. The game was created using Enterbrain's RPG Maker XP, and the Pokémon Essentials starter kit by Poccil, Maruno & Flameguru. I first started developing the game in 2012, but never finished. In early 2014, I started developing it again from scratch. This time, I have completed it.

A lot of characters in the game (specifically gym leaders and the Elite 4 members) are based on rock & metal musicians, hence the name "Pokémon Metal".

STORY:

Pokemon Metal takes place in the Arala region. Professor Oak has just moved to the protagonist's hometown, Moon City. He invites the player to his new laboratory, and gives him/her their first Pokémon and a Pokédex. Professor Oak sends the player on a quest to challenge the 8 gyms of Arala and the Pokémon League, while catching as many Pokémon as possible along the journey.

On the journey, the protagonist meets a lot of different people, and hears stories about Arala's mysterious past. A lot of important characters do their best to explain these mysteries, but always end up missing a few pieces of the puzzle.

The protagonist also runs into three different criminal organizations, whose plans remain secret for the majority of the journey. What are they after? Are they connected with each other? Are they working together?
