Welcome to Pokémon Rhythm. This romhack is a story-focused adventure featuring Pokemon all the way up to Gen 9. This rom features an album of images to collect as you adventure alongside Meloetta. Keep an eye out for her reactions as you explore the Vedeo region. Interacting with Meloetta can cause the world to react in certain ways.
Your adventure begins in a new region called Vedeo. Soon after meeting Meloetta, a Pokémon whose very existence is intertwined with music itself, you discover that something is terribly wrong. An evil organisation going by the name “Team Echo” has stolen Meloetta’s Rhythm, and they have sinister plans for its power. Help Meloetta regain its lost strength and save Vedeo from descending into chaos!
