There's a new type of trainer in town: meet the Berry Farmer! They're one with the berries as their Pokémon love to hold them during battle. Whether they're raring to battle or not, Berry Farmers love to share their surplus with trainers such as yourself. #fangame #fakemon

Um, did something shatter? Wait it's just Minore! This Fighting-type's one plucky fella as it creates shockwaves to shatter gems. They wear them as accessories, and as training weights! With its Gemstone ability, it powers up all Rock-type moves by 33%. #fakemon #fangame

A wild Minore appears! They can be encountered within caves.

Yes, it would be interesting to collaborate on such an idea! Extremely interesting in-fact, as I am one with fakemon aplenty in a game I may at this moment be doing finishing touches to (I am unable to DM you 😳).

Yoooo... I was thinking the same thing the other day! I got this Safari Zone in my game, what if there's imports from other fan games?

The Safari Zone in Captoad is packed with exclusive Pokémon not found anywhere else! With four distinct zones, you'll have plenty to search for, trust me. And if you're determined enough, there's a prize for those who explore the most... #fangame #fakemon

Whoa. Can anyone keep up with this old-timer!?
Gym Leader Rondall is the first obstacle trainers will face in my #fangame. He's all about speed, not so much humility, though. Slow down the pace of battle or out-speed him at his own game if you want to keep up with this fleet-footed fellow! #fakemon

Gym Leader Rondall humbly introduces himself before battle.

Welcome to the Captoad region! This world is exclusively filled with Pokémon never seen anywhere else. Pretty wild and sorta convenient, right?

Trainers begin from the humble Buckenbearo Village to pick their starter, then make their way towards the closest Gym, Legotoado Town. #fakemon #fangame

A map of my fan-game region, Captoad. Red icons have Gyms, blue are towns without Gyms, and the other icons are dungeons, caves, etc. Purple icons are special...

I like her, the green sticks out. Love your art style by the way, it's very distinct!

Now I know what you're thinking. "Who's this sleepy fella?" I'm here to confirm, yes, it's Slumbug!

These Bug type #fakemon are all the rage these days for their lazy demeanor and sleep-inducing prowess. Watch out though, its Truant ability makes it take a break every other turn. #fangame

Slumbug spreads drowsiness onto Bubboll via its Yawn move.

Both freaky yet cool! I like that you can see its other eye from this angle. I wonder if it'd still be Grass/Dark, maybe part Dragon to differentiate from regular Cacturne? Dark definitely fits it though.

Such a cool design and pose!

Route Twelve is an expansive, snowy wonderland filled with Pokémon only found there like the Ice-type Flox, who controls snow with its mind. There's also Fierie, a Fire/Fairy type that keeps its friends warm in a place like this. #fakemon #fangame

What are dreams anyway? Try on the Crystal Dome, an ancient artifact with powers beyond our understanding to enter people's dreams! #fakemon #fangame

HMs got you down? Check out these funny items to traverse my fangame region: the Monogre Glove allows the wearer to toss an elastic arm onto a post, then vault over treacherous magma! #fakemon #fangame

They're usually a rather jolly Pokemon, but naughty ones can be a problem... 🎅😮

Milton Randall Theodore @nuclearomega.bsky.social · Dec 21

Baby, it's so freaking cold outside! 'Tis the season after all, so check out Jingloo. They're quite friendly as a humble Ice and Normal type, congregating all around towns in the mountains to bring cheerful attitudes. #fakemon #fangame

Oh no, Team Smile is up to no good! They want to bring happiness to the world, which you know, it's a nice thought, but... by stealing? 🤨 Defeat the miscreants to foil their misguided plans! #fakemon #fangame

Calaverito has two abilities: the classic Overgrow which may help it in a pinch as a Ghost type that learns a variety of Grass moves.

The second ability, Herbivorous, negates Grass type damage and raises its Special Attack! Talk about eating your greens. #fakemon #fangame

Calaverito is hit with a Grass move but no damage is taken and its Special Attack raises.

Boo! Haha, just having some seasonal fun. Check out Calaverito, a speedy Ghost type that roams the desert.
They're one of many funny spectral creatures you'll find in this game I'm working on. #fakemon #fangame

This part was so memorably creepy, haha. I had the same reaction!
