Description

I am SO STOKED to finally release POKéMON INDIGO, a ROM hack of FireRed that tells a completely new story in a completely new region, with new protagonists, new antagonists, new gym leaders, and 120 original Fakémon! I started getting into ROM hacks a couple of years ago, and after Pokémon Prism absolutely blew my mind, I started thinking about what I would do if I could figure out how to make something on my own.

For me, it’s all about the fun of exploring a region, battling trainers along the way, and catching as many Pokémon as you can. Pokémon Indigo takes place in the Pantigo region, a large island isolated from the other nearby regions where Pokémon have been able to evolve in a completely unique way thanks to the complex and delicately balanced ecosystem. The story opens on a young trainer named Indigo who moves with their family to Pantigo from Kanto and sets out to begin their own journey.

With some help and encouragement from Professor Andy, their peculiar neighbor and renowned Pokémon expert. Along the way, you face off against your rival, who just so happens to be your younger brother, and have escalating run-ins with the mysterious Gamma Group, whose motives are initially unclear but look to derail your quest whenever they can. As you make your way through valley and mountain, glacier and volcano, tropical shores and sandy desert, you encounter dozens of new Pokémon of every shape and size.

Building a team that will take you from gym to gym before finally challenging the Elite Four and fulfilling your ultimate goal. Anybody who has played the vanilla FireRed before will find some familiar elements, such as the Safari Zone and Rock Tunnel which are relatively unchanged, but once you set off on Route 1, you are in for a completely new adventure through new lands with tons of new things to discover.

Features

  • A new region to explore with 15 towns, 8 landmarks/battle locations, 32 expansive routes, and 250 trainers to battle (including gyms and the E4)
  • A linear story and map from start to finish with 40+ hours of gameplay (based on my own run-throughs)
  • Access to the Running Shoes immediately and the Pokédex along with your starter
  • Three new starter types to choose from! Instead of the traditional Grass/Water/Fire trio where your rival always picks something to counter you, I’ve gone with a more unique Electric/Ice/Poison group where all three are fairly neutral against each other
  • All 50 TMs are hidden in special “Indigo Balls” scattered throughout the region like a scavenger hunt (inspired by Pokémon Prism)
  • All TMs are reusable after you find them
  • All HMs are usable immediately upon receipt from each of the eight gym leaders
  • All Pokémon are genderless, so there is no breeding, no eggs to care for, no need to unnecessarily grind to find something specific. The Day Care is still available to raise some Pokémon for you, though!
  • All 120 Fakémon are obtainable through normal gameplay! Some require an evolution stone, some you get by trading with an NPC, and some just need good old-fashioned leveling up, but you truly can catch ‘em all
  • stats are fairly consistent for most Pokémon, putting more of an emphasis on smart type-matching to win battles; Obviously some are stronger or faster or sturdier than others, but if you’ve ever tried to explain to a pouting seven-year-old why they can’t use Caterpie in a gym battle, you’ll appreciate this. Part of the fun of exploring a new game with all new Pokémon is that you might love one right off the bat, even if it’s just cute, and I wanted them all to be useful in battle so anyone can build whatever team they want
  • Nearly all overworld music is original*! I’m a musician and teacher, so while learning to use HMA took some time, composing was fun and familiar, and Chris Piché’s videos about Anvil Studio and Sappy were lifesavers. (*NOTE- none of the original music is imported yet in this version, I’m saving that for last)
