Did you know this entire 42 minute video is a loop?
Hello
Hello Pointcrow
Agreed
joe
Nice
The town isn’t “Eggo” it “Ego,” like part of your mind between the conscious and unconscious.
Of course that guy was Wolverine, all of his Pokémon have looooong claws.
I like the theming.
Eggo is funnier though
Or it is Ego (pronounced eggo), the Latin word for I from which the English word ego is derived.
@@-en_x3 that would still ge pronounced Ego (as in the planet from guardians of the galaxy 2) there is no way it is pronounced with a double g if there only is one and especially since there is an H in there too
@@Fulbor Literally just look up the pronunciation. I was talking about the vowel sound. It is e as in egg, not e as in evil.
@@-en_x3 you are absolutely correct though you didn't specify "vowelsound as in eggo" so what you wanted to express and what came across ended up two very different things.
Normally I hate that idea for an ending, but the way it all built up, and even how it was done in the end were just simply incredible.
I think the "it was all a dream" trope needs setup for it to pay off. You can't pull it out of a hat at the end of a story, but this one did a good job flagging that this reality wasn't actually reality from the very beginning, which is important if you want your readers not to feel disappointed with what feels like a loss of stakes at the end. "It was all a dream" is a slap in the face if served wrong the same way that serving tofu to someone who was expecting steak would feel like. You need to tell the diner they're getting tofu up front, so to speak.
*This story also does it in a good context- it assumes the player has played other pokemon titles and likely used them as childhood escapism, which cements the "it was all a dream" in an almost metatextual nostalgia/familiarity of pokemon literally being all a dream for most players.
@@inkynewt I could not agree more! This is pretty much my reasoning aswell!
@@inkynewt I guess this game serves you a steak. It's not a steak from a steakhouse but it's still a steak. But as you eat, you notice something's a little off. Probably because it's not from a steakhouse. But the cheque comes and you notice it was a tofu steak. You can't be too disappointed because it tasted good, fairly priced for a tofu steak and you noticed things were a little off for a while.
But hey, the steak was good, so why complain?

i lost my childhood to chronic illness so that ending just hit 10x harder.. thorn really made that adventure for grill just so she could experience the childhood/adventure she never had... brb while i cry
I was in the same boat it was most of my teen years I spent bedridden, so of it means anything. I understand the pain you went through
Well you made me cry too. All the best to you
this comment made me skip to the end of the video and leave thank you.
Thanks for reminding me that that situation is very real to some people and now I will also have to cry.
I am sorry for you. I am not able to relate to that, only something else, but I recognize genuine pain

****Spoilers****
To think that Thorn is just someone who wanted to give their childhood selves the adventure of their literal dreams and went to extreme lengths to do so is extremely heartwarming to me. I can't help but to relate to Thorn in the sense of giving our baby selves, essentially, the happy childhood we didn't experience. I'm gonna go cry now.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo bro shut up
@Don't Read My Profile Photo I don't remember asking
yeah... this was amazing
me big sad now
@@yummynubs3646 Don't interact with the bots, it's what they want.
One of the most haunting things, in my opinion, is that throughout the game, there's all kinds of NPCs and interactable objects whose dialogue basically pokes fun at our world. Random stuff, like a cop talking about how they make sure that only people who want to help others get to be cops, and sometimes they get people who just want to have power over others, and they make sure to get rid of people like that right away. Or some random waitress who bemoans the fact she hasn't been getting many tips lately, but then points out that "at least I'll be okay, since my employer actually pays a liveable wage, so I don't have to rely on the generousness of our customers." There's countless examples of this throughout the game. Then when you wake up from your coma in the end, one of the interactable objects you can check is a newspaper which says it's "full of stories about growing wage inequality, the impending doom of climate change, and the spread of authoritarianism and fascism across the world." Basically, you weren't stuck in a nightmare. You were stuck in a dream, and now you've woken into the REAL nightmare. Real life.
Which is quite fitting since Pokemon's world is...Pretty much a utopia. There's like a singular crisis going on at a time inthe world and that's IT. Everyone's doing pretty well for themselves outside of that.
@@malorakmusic and it’s not even one of those “this is normal” crises either
Sounds like they're just poking fun at america lol because america fucking sucks
Deep
@@wildfire9280and there’s always a very talented child at the ready to throw at whatever deity is trying to destroy the world
Normally, I hate the “it was all a dream” trope, but it was set up really well here. It didn’t start with falling asleep, so it wasn’t immediately obvious, but you were given hints throughout the whole game so it wasn’t a slap in the face, and that ended up making the story feel so much more effective.
Same
I was about to say “this reality jumping crap is even more complicated than the full Legend of Zelda timeline” but then they really just played the “it was all a dream” card
Yeah it’s Links Awakening but Pokémon.
Given the character was implied to be in a coma I'd say they very well achieved the story objective with all the complexity to end it that way
TBF i think it was built up wonderfully so i'll give it a pass
And they did right WELL too. Like that’s so baffling to me tbh.
all in le head, the story sucks now, every other character is now obsolete for some boring coma story.
The "It was all a dream card" is usually really bad but this is actually well done with solid foreshadowing and emotional payoff behind it. Rare.
No
@@brailianharvey-howard1207 can you actually disprove that there were points in the game that foreshadowed the dream ending in a unique way, and that the time travel plot makes more sense in the context of waking up, or are you simply mad because it was a dream?
@@ShuraEssays
Feels like a FNAF 4 in terms of "It's in your dreams." level of narrative.
@@xxx_jim_the_reaper_xxx I think Fnaf 4 also does it pretty well, and I agree. It's not simply, "it was a dream" there's actually foreshadowing and ploy significance towards it being a dream - on top of that, it being a dream isn't really an out for storytelling, no plot holes are solved by saying it's just a dream. That's the main bad thing about that.
@@ShuraEssays
Yeah, yeah.
Its understandable.
But its kinda hard to make a plot with a good build up to smoothly justify that the story was all a dream.
Surprise gym battle out in the wild actually sounds pretty lit. Imagine a gym leader that's so hyped to battle trainers that they're just constantly on the hunt around their city/town for new trainers to battle, and every game you could run into them somewhere different, with them looking different.
“I know it feels I like I’m getting you to do my bidding. And I am.”
At least she’s honest
I love how these videos are stuctured, the editing is great and there's good balance between voice over and live commentary
me too also the ending was suprising
will you do your playthrough of it pat ? , i would love to see it
I don't know if it was intentional or not from the game creator, but the professor being named Thorn could be hinting at her being you, same as the team leader being named Yu.
Thorn is an old English letter for the th sound. The most well known way of drawing it looking very similar to y, and is where thou comes from originally being spelled (thorn)ou, and being pronounced thou before thorn being mostly forgotten and becoming you.
From how deep this game is, it wouldn't surprise me if it was intentional.
Wow... fan games can be pretty weird sometimes, but once in a while... once in a while someone slams one straight out of the park, the city, even out of orbit. This was amazing. The best part was that it was clearly planned this way from the beginning. The Player, Yu, and Thorn, when observed side by side, show obvious signs of similarities. Yu is developing the grey hair and lightning bolt bang Thorn has, and the Player looks frankly like they could be Yu's child.
The very best part is that the big bad of the whole thing... wasn't technically evil. Perhaps a bit too curious and not empathetic enough, but as they said, they intended to keep their promise. They were gonna send the Player home. It didn't even have to come at the cost of something horrifically immoral happening.
And the Player going home... was the end. The Player had become trapped in a sort of loop of avoiding ending their adventure, repeating and repeating and repeating... until finally, they decided it was finally time to break the loop. It was time to go home. The adventure was over.
The dream had to finally end.
I'll be damned if this isn't what people would truly call "The Dream Project" aside from Chrono Trigger.
Surprised nobody mentioned Gorochu is actually A cut Pokemon from gen 1. An npc in gen 1 even mentions his Raichu evolved
I think saying that Raichu evolved was due to them switching what pokémon he had, but forgetting the change the text
It’d be absolutely sick and insane if we get Gorochu as a future dlc paradox mon in Scarlet
@@Thewindyfan that would be exceedingly sick
Gorochu (Fang storm)
It’s been documented in a book saying it caused mayhem with powerful fangs and even more powerful thunderstorms.
Gorochu (If it wasn’t scrapped)
This is the result of a raichu that continuously dug in the mountains looking for a moonstone. It’s tail has grown so long and thick it can slice titanium with little effort.
@@Thewindyfan It would, the problem is that pichu is a thing everyone forgets about, pikachu can't have 4 evolutionary states
You can really tell crow really enjoyed this game in comparison to insurgence, uranium, and team rocket. Barely if any plot skips most of the characters were shown and explained and he actually had positive things to say about the game itself instead of just reacting to how crazy the plot was (although the plot in this was still pretty wild).
Because most fangames suck ass
he enjoyed team rocket way more, you are a failure apparently in understanding people's thoughts.
@Theurgy I mean you're just outright wrong he didn't express so much positivity about team rocket he just laughed and made jokes while he actually took the story of this game seriously.
ngl you just seem toxic for literally no reason.@@ejokurirulezz
17:39 Actually, Vibrava isn’t a dragonfly. The Flygon line is based on antlions. Trapinch is meant to represent the larval form of antlions, which is what most people think of when they think antlions: digging sand traps, having big pincers, and all that. Vibrava and Flygon are based on the adult versions of antlions, sometimes known as antlion lacewings.
Ackchyually 🤓
THATS WHAT YOU TOOK AWAY FROM THIS VIDEO!?
no hate tho lol
dragonfly
dragon, fly
fly + dragon
flygon.
*SPOILER FOR POST GAME, open at your own risk.*
I really enjoy these creative narrations of the game, though I got the same ending he did where the player wakes up and goes home, I also tried the ending of the player lying back down on the hospital bed despite the monitor saying we weren't supposed to.
It spoke a lot, with the player being so immersed in the world made in their head, they didn't want to leave. Despite the risk of never waking up again, they decided to fall back asleep and back into Egho, with the game restarting with the player and the other two starters they didn't choose, Thorn is still there to fill me with more adventures. Made me feel something indescribable, the feeling that I chose a world I made up in my head while giving up the one that was real and everyone else that is there.
I came into this video expecting a normal pokemon game run through there they gain the gym badges beat the elite 4 and become champion of the region. I didn't expect to question every single moment of my life.
@@pointcrow6447 I am confused what prize did i win?
@@gaminguchiha5650 it's a scam just report it. Sorry if you were joking but I'd rather get whooshed than risk these dumb scan bots being successful.
@@Officewafflevalid for that
So, my understanding of the story is;
*spoilers*
Your player character is in a coma, and has probably been in a coma for many years since childhood. Your parents are devastated they can do nothing to help you (the creepy, dark hospital scenes).
Professor Thorn is the part of you that knows none of it is real. She knows you have been stuck in a coma, and lost your entire childhood, so she fabricates these events to allow for an adventure, making up for the years of childhood lost during the coma, and also, hopes it will eventually allow you to escape, and wake up, and each "multiverse" is just each of your attempts to wake up from the coma.
Pokemon To Life
This is the DEFINITION of "wake up to reality "
so kinda like with ash then since hes been a trainer for over 20 years and hes 11 lol
according to the retconed lore, Ho-Oh has been actively making Ash's summer vacation last entirely too long since episode 1, which it's been less than a year despite other evidence that it's been at least a few. Something tells me Celebi is probably involved, too.
Which also explains why she says none of it matters
That ending put me on the verge of tears, the thought of someone losing so many years of their life and all the precious memory’s they could have had.
Halfway thru this video i had a hunch that Yu was a younger Thorn but i didnt even think that she was *also* the player character. Gotta say the plot twists in this game legitimately caught me offguard
Same, Yu looked really similar to Thorn, basically identical really. Thorn/Yu being older versions of the player caught me so off guard tho
No gonna lie, choosing the other ending grants you a LOT of extra playtime. Would be cool to see that ending in a separate vid as well :)
@Aglibomph Who you battle at the end doesnt actually change the ending except for some dialouge before the "it was all a dream" reveal. To get the alternate ending, you have to interact with the bed and fall back asleep. What's sad about this is that, if you look at the objects around the room you can find doctor's notes about the player, stating if they wake up, they must NEVER under any circumstances be allowed to go back to sleep soon after waking up from the coma, as it possibly could lead them to never waking up again. In order to see the rest of the game, you have to sacrifice not just the world you live in, but take away the player character from their parents
@@guyonasofa2318 that's horrible!
@@guyonasofa2318 EZ fix dude. Just run the emulator in the background for a few days, then go to sleep. Then it doesn't matter what the notes say, we did our time.
@@guyonasofa2318 ah yes, *Hikikomori*
@@guyonasofa2318 I mean, not being allowed to sleep is going to kill you very quickly, so arguably that means going back to sleep is the better ending.
"And then I woke up" the one line my English teacher hates the most at the end of a beautiful story. What a great way to end off a fan made game, taking us back to the reality of the official Pokemon world.
@CheeseBiscuits I think it implies real world as the models are RPG maker looking models instead of pokemon styled ones after we wake up.
Oop there goes gravity
@@P.A.L.09 snap back to reality
Choke he’s so mad but he won’t
The links awakening-esque story combined with pokemon plus multiverse theories, with a spice of "may your dreams come true" motivational speech makes this an outstanding fan game, whoever made this deserves to have their own game developed and published.
These fan games ironically have better stories then the actual games
I don’t think it’s truly ironic… In the end of the day, fan games have much more freedom in their storytelling than official releases, due to the lack of time constraints, investors and upper management, and the chains of making it kid friendly. Sadly, in the end the official Pokémon games will probably never have as good stories as the fan games…
@@supersonicfan6404 It’s because fangame developers are more likely to take risk while, I guess, actually game company aren’t?
@@rcl4737 I mean, when every game could ruin your company's reputation, income and satisfaction... Yeah, pretty much
@@rcl4737 see it’s easy to say that when we see the high quality fangames. Do you have any idea how many exist compared to how many are worth viewing or playing?
the actual games don't have stories. just a series of disconnected events. idk what you even mean.
"Is this, like, a Ground-Type Eevee?"
*proceeds to use fire move with his fire-type pokemon instead of switching to blastoise, a water-type, which would be smarter*
This looks so cool! Mad credit to all the game devs!
Looks like a neat game
@@bleakautomaton4808 and I would say neater. As gamefreak. Like yeah
How do I play it tho?
@@roberthammar7342 you can try googling the game’s name :)
What is the games name?
This game is something special. The Plottwist at the end really blew my mind and while you can go back and do the postgame it kinda leaves a sad note, since you will never be able to go back home after this decision.
I remember I had a nightmare where no matter how hard I tried I wasn't able to wake up. Being chased by an entity or dying albeit quite terrifying never really gave me a nightmare dream because, I always found it fascinating. A true nightmare dream for me was when in my dream I would wake up but, it wasn't reality. This constant state of wakeing up continued for 7 cycles. After each cycle it felt like something was closing in on me, till finally I awoke. To this day it is my most terrifying dream.
How are you sure your aren't still asleep?
@@TheGameChangerLord... I'm hating you, _so_ much right now... 😹
Gorochu is actually the beta version of an evolved Raichu from the main series, if just never came out
Yep
I love that the gym leaders are not bound to one type but rather have a theme connecting their Pokémon. An idea I had for a long time to make the gym leaders more challenging. For example a leader themed around snake Pokémon to gain the slither badge, trample badge has Pokémon that got hooves and so on.
This is often true of the Elite Four and Champion. Lance was dragon-themed, not strictly Dragon type (hence the 2 dragons and a dinosaur that aren’t Dragon type). Similarly, Steven was mineral-themed, not strictly Steel type (hence the fossils and ancient clay that aren’t Steel type).
It’s a great concept, but it’s rare to the point that most players actually complain when they see it-“Lance is a dragon master but his whole team is actually FLYING TYPE???”
YO THE COMA THING AND THE "you can't wake up if you keep going back to bed" REMINDS ME SO MUCH OF OMORI
I love this guy. The joy he has while he plays games and his energy just is so fun to watch
Ok, I *LOVE* the transition to using default RPG Maker assets (Can't quite pin down which RM they're from, but still) at the end. Just being hit with a totally different art style to represent reality is really cool to me. :)
Edit: I wanna say it's the VX/VX Ace assets (With a modified character sprite), but again, I'm not certain. :P
I think it's XP, but ONLY because it's the only version with Pokemon Essentials.
It could very well be VX somehow, but that'd require a new subengine than pokemon essentials already was.
@@Manavine Not really. You can still use the VX assets in any other RM engine if you want to. MV would be difficult since they increased the tile/sprite resolution to 48x48, but VX still has 32x32 tiles/sprites afaik.
I gotta take another look at the default XP assets tho, cause I'm really not certain. Lol.
Can we appreciate how dedicated Pcrow is? He’s so fun to watch :D

the "it was all a dream" ending trope may be complete taboo among writers and just plain poor writing, but this game actually carried it out amazingly. goddamn.

Dang. All that time, all those realities, and she still never changed her hair.
This was wonderful, an amazingly well thought out story, it amazes me that people put so much effort into this and I'm sure there's some meaning behind it for the creators.
I know I’m late to this, but this bot above me deadass just stole the later fragment of another person’s comment and threw it into this reply section. RUclips bots are so scummy, and they’re also just so painfully obvious.
Damn, this hack looks sick! I love when these things have proper sprite-work and an actual story like this and it seems like you enjoyed it too! Who’s the mod creator? I don’t see them credited anywhere
It’s a fan game not a hack
They finally did it.
The "it was all in le head" meme finale is now in pokemon. And I'm not mad about it
Pyrocynical would have said the same thing
I love the art style and presentation of this game. It looks fantastic.
I’m very partial to high-detail sprites.
11:55 For anyone who doesn’t know, Gorochu was the rumored evolution of Raichu.
Wasn’t a rumor, it was in the early development to give raichu a 3rd evo and text got left in the game by accident upon release when talking with someone in cinnabar
It wasn't a rumor.
It was scrapped because of file size in gen 1
@@billuminati3867 no you’re confused. The trade text was a mistranslation. The trade was mutual evolving pokemon in Red and green. The americian Red and Blue were both based on the updated rerelease of Japanese blue. They translated the text from red and green though. I believe it was a machoke for a graveler or something.
That heartfelt ending gets thrown out the window when you go back to sleep for the postgame 😂
fun game tho
When you fall back asleep, is it another coma, or just regular falling asleep?
@@xxultimatelifeformxx5773 I would say coma because that is more in line with the game’s message. I can’t really confirm though because I didn’t complete the postgame, catching all the unknowns gets boring in any game.
@@xxultimatelifeformxx5773 I didn't play the game but based in other comments, there are notes in the MC's hospital room which say that if they wake up, going back to sleep soon after is extremely dangerous and may end up with them never waking up
What insane mashup of Omori, Bioshock Infinite & Underverse did I just watch.
I love the incorporation of beta Pokemon and ideas like Gorochu, the Blastoise designed much like Wartortle's original evolution, A Pokemon named Skulkraken which was Gyrados' beta name. So cool.
takes "trust no one, not even yourself" to a whole different level
Gives me huge omori vibes lmfao
Creating a safe haven to avoid confronting what really happened 1 person in the reality knowing too much and getting you to confront reality and the universe being reset multiple times
Sounds a lot like omori lmao
Omori resets headspace any time blackspace rears its fangs through basil and basil leads omori to confronting what happened
Also sounds a lot like Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced!
THANK YOU, I JUST SAID THAT
Yu theme music for that first encounter is from Pokémon mystery dungeon! Gosh, I just love when fan games utilize that soundtrack. It's super underrated and gray to see at use in other Pokémon content
Thank you so much for getting me into this game, I love every bit of it and there's still SO much story after the big reveal. The post-game is huge, and the level cap goes up to 150. I got to see the reveal for myself cuz I stopped watching the video and went and played ALL of it. I'm currently breeding a team for a tournament they're hosting this sunday on the discord, and I'm so excited, this game really deserves more attention.
People wonder why i watch the livestream and the edited version.
Simple. Because the edited versions are a BANGER. The Intro, the outro, the voiceover and much more. Which makes this a new but familiar experience
Love how the moment I saw a hospital bed I was like-
"Damn, so the whole thing is actually a coma dream right?"
I saw it coming from the moment the first puzzle piece was in place but that doesn't change the fact that it's well executed.
Masterpiece. Pointcrow, your narration, especially your monolog at the end, really broke through. You're great
this story is actually very good compared to the usual stories we have in pokemon fangames, there might not be much character development, but they still made sure to make an ending with a strong message
Time for another Fan Game! I think we all enjoy these.
Yes
agreed
*"*"*SPOILERS*"*"*
I'm always a little disheartened with the "It was a dream" endings for stories, but this one makes sense enough with the rest of the plot. Overall fantastic story, and wonderful rendered pokémon!
I thought he was gonna say that the 6 most important words were “Are you a boy or girl”
This had so much more meaningful and deep moments than I thought there was gonna be and one I am once again left contemplating life thanks to your videos and yet I keep coming back thanks for another masterpiece

@@Vivigreeny25 just hide one in a pokemon fangame! he'll surely take the bait.
In case anyone's curious about the game's music (Or at least some of the tracks audible in this video), it actually hails from an old game boy series called "Golden Sun". In particular, the ones that I noticed were the desert theme (Yampi desert's theme) and the theme that played at the climax of the story before the final fight (Jupiter lighthouse's theme).
God daaaaaamn bro! Thanks for playing all these it’s incredible watching them all play out!
Damn that's one of the only good "it was all just a comatose dream!" plots I've seen
Great job to whoever developed this game.
I love watching these videos, I act like it’s a movie and lie on my bed eating a snack. Can’t wait to watch this video!
I’m literally on the verge of tears, infinite props to the creator!!!
_Infinite_ props, you say?
There’s not enough of theses videos around need more of pointcrow’s content on this
I haven't played Pkmn Infinity, but Yu being You wasn't a huge plot twist (as it was presented here, at least). I was kind of hoping it would happen, and it did!
I first thought Yu was going to be Professor Thorn, but as it turns out the plot twist was a LOT more than that
@@thedoodguy yeah that's what I thought at first
i mean you technically weren’t wrong
Man the custom pokemon in this are top tier, they all fit so perfectly into the existing games.
I.. was not excepting a.. "it's was all a dream" hitting me this hard, I gotta play it now even tho I know, I still gotta play this. Also I am glad to be subscribed to you
If it was me, I'd definitely wouldn't have went home like how are you gonna wanna go home after all that? Imagine all of the realities you could explore and see, I legit couldn't pass it up
I love his story telling or reading skills
I remember beating this game after looking up Pokemon Rom hacks over the summer.
Needless to say I was blown away and honestly feeling almost a little bit empty by the end.
what is the name of the hackrom?
I watched the unedited version of this in your vods and seeing it in your main channel makes me happy. The amount of twist in this story is insane that I had to repeat the ending of it.
Dr. Thorn: Multiverse of Madness
I think it would have been cool to have a normal ending where you lose the last battle and then a post game/ new game+ where you go back in time and experience the game from yu's perspective and then at the end of that we have this ending for the "true ending".
Edit I just realized we can even take it a step further and have you lose that second final battle aswell and have a post post game where you play as Thorn but win the final battle (as it happened in every reality) but this time you've gone through enough and ready to actually wake up.
Your story telling videos of spin off are your best work and I really enjoy them.
I love these types of games, when they are genuinely good (not some random pokemon mod or some shit story,) they are better than the originals. I prefer that the pokémons are also 100% the ones that already exist and not some invented ones, no typing change no nothing, just a better pokémon experience through the story and characters alone, maybe one day we'll have a fan game that is as good as the gen 5 games, who knows
I know this came out a year ago but that intro was sick and I rewatched this video so many time just for that
11:55 Oh my gosh I’ve been waiting to see a fangame add Gorochu my whole life and I’ve finally found it. The cut third stage in the Pikachu line before Pichu was retconned in is finally here!
This is one of the best videos I've seen on your channel, PointCrow. Thank you so much, and thanks to the creators of the game for making this absolute banger of a story!
Thanks for the sneak peak surprise of this video on your RUclips live-stream today, Eric! That was a super awesome stream!!
Insane storyline! Hats of to the creators of this game and also for your awesome narration!
This is genuinely one of my favorite video’s
i was almost crying at the end of this. my god. that was incredible
I usually have a strong bias against a lot of fangame plots because of how unnecessarily edgy they can be (Insurgence moment), but I don't feel it as much here. Still definitely has some of that fangame edginess to it, but it's much lighter than something like Insurgence by a long shot. I'm pretty impressed, honestly.
Wait which one was insurgence again?
And also, personally I never care how edgy a fan game is as long as the story benefits from it. They can go totally buck wild, do whatever they want, and I respect that a lot.
@@Vivigreeny25 the one with cults
Ikr insurgence was unnecesarily dark
@@Vivigreeny25 yeah like the one zombie romhack had edgy moments... But also it was a pokemon game where there's a zombie apocalypse so edge makes sense. Even then it also had "funny" moments to soften the edge
Insurgence was just overly edgy with the cults thing and never having anything to really try to soften its edge (in my opinion)
This music is amazing too. Some of it sounds like it might be from Chrono trigger, and that desert music is absolutely from Golden Suns. But I don't care because it sounds great LOL
Coincidentally, the story even had time travel similar to Chrono Trigger.
The only fan game where the story runs in one of those creepy pasta theories where Ash is in a coma after the first episode.
This is a "it was all a dream" ending done right. Impressive
Loving these longer videos of pokemon fan games, they're so fun to watch
That’s absolutely crazy. That ending was... odd. But very heartwarming, too.
The games ending was so good for a “it was just a dream” twist, that I can’t seem to find it anywhere…
I know there's a lot to unpack here, but it just made me so happy to hear all the Golden Sun music that was used. That's a criminally underrated soundtrack.
Motoi Sakuraba's best work, for absolutely amazing games.
no wonder it sounded so familiar. still waiting for golden sun 4 ;-;
@@fishbotsid9771 One day, the series will be back. Being patient is the hard part ^^'
At least the GS community is much more active than a few years ago.
