Heya! I'm the main sprite artist on Vinemon, so thank you very much for the shoutout! We've worked hard to pack the game full of personality. It may look a little plain at the start, but there are a lot of unique designs and locations to see over the course of the game. Even if you're not familiar with Vinesauce, we made sure that it's still fun to play if you don't get all the references.
I promise it definitely doesn't look plain from the start. You can immediately tell just from the first cutscene how much effort was put into the game to make it feel unique
As somebody who designed 5 'Mons for Vinemon and loves the game to absolute bits, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!! I really want more people out there to experience its wild polish and creativity, and this'll help a ton! The functioning PvP eagerly awaits new blood to test out these wild meme teams!
Vinemon does so much more then being a funny streamer fan game. It's a genuinely great Pokémon fan game with solid writing, (even if it is mostly memes). Sure, a lot of the stuff in the game you can only really understand by watching Vinesauce streams. But even then it's just a really well designed (If a bit of a grind at the late game point) Pokémon experience.
As a long time Pokemon Ashen Frost fan (back from when it was still Pokemon Present even) seeing someone finally give this fangame some of the praise it deserves is an utter delight
check the bottom of the description there is a list of links. Also all of the download links for the fangames on RC can be from in their discord and through the wayback machine
I despise leveling/grind skip. It takes my motivation completely away. I appreciate the video anyway and I'll be sure to try out Vinemon (I love Joel) and Abstract.
Like, you enjoy grinding in Pokemon? If that's what you meant, then uh.... well... to each their own... I guess....... But you can also just choose not to use those features in these games
@@ayrei1503 In moderation, yes. If the feature is there I'll use it, would be stupid not to. (I have no self restraint and yes, that is totally a me problem)
These are really cool recomendations, will definitely check them out 0:46 - 0:51 I am a bit curious about which fangame this quick clip of playthrough was from, if anyone could point me in the right direction to look that would be cool :>
Rejuvenation (the pokemon game you had in clips sometimes) has a story that took me around.. 150 hours to complete? (although its usually 90-100), and has two routes. really good game, would recommend
Cool stuff but personally I stick to ROM hacks that I can play on original hardware. The fan games are stuck on PC (and Mac??) which doesn't work for me.
@@ayrei1503 I meant the game with the pink hair female mc, I've already played Vanguard since act 1 and replaying for act 3; the new artstyle and map changes really make the game feel alot more polished.
pokemon ashen forest is criminally underrated for some reason none of the bigger pokemon fangame youtuber play it(or i just never seen anyone big play it lol) it really good my only gribs with it is money can be tight at times another thing about it is i actallly like the side quest i usually skip those in any game.
Thank you so much for checking out Vinemon! We have a vibrant online community so be sure to battle and trade to your hearts content!

Great underrated picks! Played 30+ fangames and never heard of 4/5 of these so you've picked some hidden gems
Oh no, we live in a time where internet people have never heard of Vinny, we're getting old
Never too late to start
I only know of Vinny because of Joel xD
@@Alcathr Wdym they're the same person
booti
Are you ready to be bloodied and bruised?
Thanks for shouting out Abstract! :D All of the games in this video are really cool! I really hope all of them grow in popularity!

I really love Salt and Shadow. It makes me play Pokémon in a completely new way than I typically do
Any time vinemon gets a shout out is a great time, the devs are awesome, the game has SO MUCH love put into it, i also cant recommend it enough!!
You caught my interest with the intro, definitely knew my exact thoughts when searching for a new fangame to play. Will be giving them a shot.
Very well presented video and as a creator of one of those four videos at the start, I can't agree with you more.
BTW I love your style of videomaking
Thank you so much! This is the style I'm going to stick to going forward, so stick around if it interests you!

As a long time Pokemon Ashen Frost fan (back from when it was still Pokemon Present even) seeing someone finally give this fangame some of the praise it deserves is an utter delight
Finally! Pokemon fan games that offer unique twists and novel gameplay. I've been looking for those
Watching all the way from Costa Rica, love your fangame! Keep it going, best of lucks! Pura vida!
Thanks! I've been trying to find some new ones for ages!
A bit sad that I can't download Salt & Shadows though, it was on RC

@@ayrei1503 Thanks!
Great video! Always glad to see Vinemon get a shout out!
Dope video as always!
salt & shadow looks incredible

Holy hell! Its the guy behind pokemon vanguard!!
Ashen frost is so good, it's my 2nd favorite fangame ever and i've played quite a few
I'll put them in my list. I've definitely haven't heard of any of these besides the popular ones you mentioned. Salt & Shadow sounds very intriguing.
Desolation and Genesis is great too
These are really cool recomendations, will definitely check them out
0:46 - 0:51 I am a bit curious about which fangame this quick clip of playthrough was from, if anyone could point me in the right direction to look that would be cool :>
This was exactly the video I needed. Thank you!
They sound interesting
They sure do, you should check them out!
Ashen Frost is amazing, I definitely recommend it! The humour is great and the story is great.
Thank you for this great list!
Rejuvenation (the pokemon game you had in clips sometimes) has a story that took me around.. 150 hours to complete? (although its usually 90-100), and has two routes. really good game, would recommend
well i mean it is my favorite fangame :P
@@ayrei1503 i feel like its fairly underrated lol, i didnt ever hear of it until someone in a comment section mentioned it
pokemon tectonic is always going to be my favorite pokemon fan game! i recommend it to everyone i know!
What's the name of the Pokémon fan game in the video with the protagonist that has blond hair?
Vanguard, major update releasing May 24th
*gives positive attention*
I'm a simple guy. I see Scoot from Animal Crossing, I click.
What about to play Pokémon damask fan game on game jolt to have preview
Can I assume that this video was made because you was inspired by my comment?🤭
What are the 2 games shown in the conclusion? The one with pink grass and the one with the blonde boy... Sick artstyle!
The one with the blond boy is his fan game, it's called project vanguard
Pokémon ashen frost sounds like legends z-a. Maybe Legends Z-A drew inspiration from it.
I'm shaking uncontrollably. We should play mega walls pokemon edition.
ARE THERE ANY GAMES THAT LET YOU CUSTOMIZE EACH POKÉMON?
wait, pheonix rising is out?
what pokemon rom are you playing here 1:04?
What fangame are you showing in the intro and outro, where the trainer has blond hair?
Vanguard
The best pokémon game is pokémon adventures red's chapter
Subscribed
Game at 8 seconds?
Vanguard
Cool stuff but personally I stick to ROM hacks that I can play on original hardware. The fan games are stuck on PC (and Mac??) which doesn't work for me.
Whats the game at 0:47?
Vanguard, it updates this Friday
@@ayrei1503 I meant the game with the pink hair female mc, I've already played Vanguard since act 1 and replaying for act 3; the new artstyle and map changes really make the game feel alot more polished.
Thats Pokemon Rejuvenation, its really good, but isnt complete yet. I think theres still 3 or 4 gyms left for them to add (out of 18 total gyms)
i always thought u was a girl in the vanguard server haha
Some of them don't support Android 🥲
Finally a good reccomendation video🔥
What game does he use as the intro and outro, the one with the blonde character wearing red?
Vanguard
These actually seem really good and unique! I'll definitely be checking them out.
Highly recommend checking out Vinemon's multiplayer scene as well, it has functioning PvP and trading!

Thanks sir for your recommendations
what's the game you were playing in the intro? was expecting it to be on this list, and I don't recognize it
Ty for this video
