justice for eevee, you were supposed to keep it safe :(

[@michaelmurray8134]

Why didn't he just quit and restart from his last save point? He would have gotten back the Eevee.

[@anthonycurby4606]

What was weird, is arane mentions him having an espeon as well later on, which makes me think his game glitched eith Eevee

[@Ashgrey0]

Man that just made me sad af

[@cyanite4745]

After losing a pokemon to ninetails you recieve your pokemon back going to the border and talking to the pokemon there tho

[@EntaroCeraphenine]

Hey! Creator of Pokemon Stranded here. I am so glad you enjoyed this game, and most of the comment section is nice too. Thanks for the showcase, really means a lot! I intended to make something different compared to usual Pokemon games/ROM hacks, something equal parts wholesome and equal parts dark. Seeing people enjoying the things in the game makes me a lot happier. The community support is fantastic even if the fanbase is small and development is slow. Thanks once again! P.S. You have done a good job summarizing the key highlights from the walls of texts! But I would still encourage people to read the dialogues because there are many hidden easter eggs in it!

[@grldnlcp]

ohhhh! the creator! great job on this one!

[@HundleBundle47]

Looking forward to being able to play! What's the latest patch/iteration for the game? Also is there an official site for distribution of the game or that you would recommend? Thanks!

[@user-hy5bd9mn5b]

Good game but wow killing a gardevior

[@smushycows2334]

Bruh this game you made is better than anything the main pokemon games have given us in the last decade lol. Great job. I'm always amazed by the creativity and dedication by people in the community like yourself

I find it crazy how large developers don’t see these sorts of rom hacks and decide to contact the team or person who works on these. To me it seems like they would be a great addition to the team

[@Galax94cz]

But then they would have to actually put effort into their games cause people would actually expect good games from them if they actually recruited talented rom hackers, and they can't have that, minimal effort maximum profits anti consumer practices only

[@einjix]

Why would they? As long as people keep buying their mass produced overpriced garbage they dont need to do better

[@talkingfez1265]

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

[@EBProGamer]

@@Galax94cz I must agree with you. You just have to look at the state the previous two games released to realize that the Pokemon Company doesn't really care anymore. And now additionally with DLC's the money grabbing gets even worse.

[@pg855]

Because large developers arent concerned with creativity or skill. All of their work is cookie cutter and easy to mass reproduce by anyone

[@DrSid-fp9ze]

1. Eevee comes attached with a moon stone. You can get an umbreon if used right away. 2. Eevee has the ability Run away, which you can use to run from shadow tag Wynauts and wobbuffets in connection cave.

[@Ares_Mythos]

I think Eevee has a different stone every time because mine had a water stone

[@battlefora3dscollab]

​@@Ares_Mythosyou didn't do what I think you did... Did you?

[@Ares_Mythos]

@themasterplan816 no i have a jolteon, i didn't do that because i have Blastoise

[@DrSid-fp9ze]

I kept him as Eevee because the ability Run away is very useful and the game gives you powerful fully evolved sweepers with 80 BP moves right from the beginning.

[@kylecote7261]

​@DrSid-fp9ze have you swapped your party around to see if you can sacrifice *not* eevee?

[@IplayallGames-hh2qk]

Secret route:If you press B while evolving Wartortle the process will stop and you unlock a new route call "Wartortle route" but it will take away your eevee and all of your pokemon and give you six Wartortle Yes you heard me six Wartortle teammates so feel free to try it 😅(only with the ocean girl)

[@molassesman4066]

Hey! Thats SIX blastoises (if you grind)

[@IplayallGames-hh2qk]

@@molassesman4066 Yes!!! There is a hidden under water psyduck village which has a item shop one of them sell rare candy for 150$ now my main blastoise is lv100 and my Ivysaur is lv63 but all the wild pokemon and trainer's level also change becoming harder (you don't need to grind too much😅)

[@ouplas]

I haven't seen anyone say this; The girl in the weird town is not saying time is in an illusion and we're all going to die. She's singing a song in the finale of adventure time sand by BMO. "Time is an illusion that helps things make sense." It's just a nice reference to a beautiful song. ❤

[@goobingtons]

Siding with Haunter is hilarious considering Gengar was probably going to kill Nidorino lol. Not to mention that a Ghost/Poison type 3rd stage losing to a mono-Poison second stage is embarassing. Also getting nothing but a thank you is a good sign you made the wrong decision.

[@saiyanfang1047]

Also injured animals in the wild tend to die if they're injured, and they also tend to hide before they die.

For anyone wondering what the qr code shows. It's like a bunch of random stuff someone would doodle in their looseleaf notebook during class. Probably a bunch of references to their friend group and maybe anyone who tested the rom hack. All drawn in colored pencil. Theres a logo for dota2, hearthstone, some stick figures with a numerical code under them (one number per stick figure) very random and not what I exoected. Oh theres a lit joint and a potleaf too as well as 420 etc

I'm sorry but "Got food posioning from eating Magikarp and died" must be the funniest way to go on the Pokemon world, you meet the guy who got roasted alive by a Charizard in the afterlife and he'll laugh all eternity.

[@luminariel3765]

They need to hire the people who develop these, maybe even purchase and publish them as official indie games that aren't part of the main timelines

[@bhirawamaylana466]

Pokemon Company never like their fans so why bother?

[@psyxypher3881]

Nintendo doesn't want people thinking that the fans can make superior products.

[@DEADLYDOOM666]

@@psyxypher3881 bigger prob. is, that nintendo used to take this kind of fan games down and dont hire the creators cuz of the copyright .... if nintendo wont go after that they would loose there copyrights on the pokemon franchise and that would be a big disaster for them. and if they would hire the guys making great fangames / romhacks they would encourage more and more to try this and nintendo would need to invest more money to save there copyrights .. so its just an financial and industrial problem : /

[@psyxypher3881]

[@BakaTaco]

I have NO idea what the hell is going on with this plot, it's insane, but the game is awesome, and I LOVE how unique it is.

[@aurumflash3983]

Honestly, I'd love an actual pokemon survival game. Pokemon legends arceus kinda gives a very very small peek at it, but a full on survival would be so cool

[@InsanityForce]

There is PokeWilds but it's really more of a sandbox than survival.

[@Gamer3427]

Yea, a proper pokemon survival game, maybe even with no NPCs to talk to and only occasional notes to find for story, would be an absolute blast. Think something like the pokemon mods for Minecraft but fully fleshed out in a setting designed for it.

[@randomcanadian6298]

There's a game called Palworld coming out at some point that's kinda like "legally distinct pokemon survival".

[@Ninjask720]

​@@Gamer3427Pokewilds, you have to craft the stuff by yourself; there's no TMs or HMs, instead, especific pokemon know those moves; you can make a house, and a ranch for your pokemon to be there, wandering; And you can both battle pokemon, or befriend calm/friendly pokemon. Btw, the pokemon are all wandering around, there's no pokemon center, no stores, no NPCs, and no pc to save pokemon (u just drop them) It has pokemon Silver graphics, and, at least the last time I played, there was pokemon up to gen 8.

[@Ninjask720]

​@@InsanityForceI mean, you can die (by the ghost, and just the normal fainting) and you craft. The only thing missing is the need to drink and eat, and exhaustion.

[@superspider64]

"Please my dying words... Keep my Eevee safe" sick let's sacrifice it's life for master balls 😂😂😂 im glad you got dupped

[@isaachayward7649]

I'm pretty sure Arane (the frozen girl) is a reference to Dr.Stone The green light being the petrification beam and the alcohol and nitric acid being the way to turn her back

Yes

[@theretroleafeon999]

Didnt see this before i comented lol, yeah i was tipped off even before that with the nitric acid alchohol mixture thing, as that is what makes the revival fluid

[@SnazzyParesh]

There are a ton of anime references. Otohime and the big ship is a One piece reference!

[@IIMiikexDII]

That intro just described Palworld. Obviously this video came out way before Palworld, but it made me chuckle.

[@KoPtheReal]

When you don´t except many battles, this game seems to be very funny. The game is focused about funny quests and exploring the many paths of the island. Good video and funny Fangame.

[@benediktwindisch2778]

The room with the baking Jigglypuff, the Wigglytuff and Chansey is like my dream. Jigglypuff is my absolute favorite since 1999 when I started Pokémon Cool idea for a hack, love the wholesomeness and to help out the different Pokémon as well as hearing about their story

[@MrJulius64]

I know the statue at 22:31. It's the grave of Tectonix, an Onix who liked lemonade in the base FRLG games. Memories.

[@Treeckoboi1]

You already know it's a good day when zwiggo uploads.

I did not expect to find myself invested in the story of a romhack for a game series that doesn't tend to care about story, but here we are.

I played this game in the past but couldn't find anything to do after the hidden Psyduck Village part so left it. I'm quite glad this video was posted ngl

[@spazmatic7362]

[@vaishalijalan7146]

I was bout to comment this but you noticed! Lol!

[@nicholas_e]

At 39:00 for those who are curious what her being stuck in stone is a reference too, well its a reference to dr. stone, the way to get her out is the same way as dr. stone, as well as the green light turning people into stone

[@GemsOfRedditStudios]

It’s a mindblowing experience. I’m more reserved when it comes to changing much, this is the other spectrum. Nice work, damn.

[@insan3giraff39]

This is one of the best fangames I’ve seen, and my only real complaint is that it functions much more like a puzzle game than an actual pokemon game, which isn’t even inherently a bad thing.

[@Maconviking]

This is way to confusing. I see the effort from the devs but it’s a nightmare to follow what’s even happening in the story. It’s simply too convoluted.

[@naplockblubba5369]

one way is that in the Underwater Palace, there's a squirtle who will reset one of your pokemon exactly once to level 1 and remove all EV's from them, but give you tons of rare candies in return for free, over 60 of them. But like others said also in the Psyduck Village.
