Hey have y'all heard of any really good fan games?

I came across this one called Pokemon Academy Life a while back and I think it has ruined my perspective on fan games in general. I guess it just might not be my kind of thing, but from what I've heard, it sounds… really upsetting. Biased summary: Player characters and Gym Leaders get new personalities and tight clothing, and instead of going on an adventure, you go to school. Now I guess I like that the players have personalities, but they're all pretty generic and even dislikeable. As for Gym Leaders, from what I've seen, Gardenia seems alright, Flannery is a jerk, Maylene is a jerk (maybe; I'm sorry tiktakturtle), Misty is a jerk, Jasmine is Wally, and almost none of the male ones are there. Actually, maybe none of the male ones are there. Which is good. Don't trash Bugsy. I also don't really like the art style. Everyone's tall and hot and has the same face. And the female uniform has a skirt shorter than Candice's. Opinion time, I just don't like school stories/games because I don't like school. In the Pokemon world, I'd be like the player characters who are out learning stuff by going on a journey, not school. The one good thing is the music. At least what I've heard. I read on the website GlitchXCity is doing some of the music and I flat-out hate GlitchXCity's remixes, though they're not objectively bad like I once said they are (I'm sorry). Oh, also, to end on a positive note, they got Cynthia's personality right. If you're into school RPG things and Pokemon, I think the demo is free so don't let my rant taint your view, go ahead and check it out!
{/rant}
Long story short, I want proof that fan games can be good. There's a few others I've run into that I won't get into detail about. (Biased summary 2: you wish you're in the Pokemon world, you fall asleep and wake up as Volkner but not Volkner, and N's name is Zak. Biased summary 3: Bugsy's sister names a Volbeat after him. There's more to the game, but I thought that was adorable.) So are there any that you suggest checking out?

Unrelated sidenote, I think all Pokemon fans can benefit from Be Less Salty About Other's Opinions 101, me included

Also I love the GSC/HGSS ending theme so much

I just have a curiosity that what if Legendaries other then Solgaleo and Lunala had evolutions or even mega evolutions like the eon pair and rayquaza. That would be amazing don't you think.

Well boy I have an unpopular opinion for you! And it is…
I really liked Mega Evolutions. I don’t know why, I just do. The only big complaint I had about Sun/Moon when they came out was that none of the new Pokémon had Mega Evolutions and instead they had Z-Moves, which are a ripoff of the Soultimate moves from Yokai Watch

Has that uranium thing been mentioned yet? Escape from Lavender Town has a good pun.

I like education; I don't like school.
I guess I'll check out Uranium but wasn't it taken down for copyright?
Also I think Insurgence was the one in which Bugsy's sister names a Volbeat after him. Maybe not. I think I've heard of it, though.

Also nickeljorn, here's your 32-minute-later reminder to draw Beta Jasmine

edit: Nope the one where Bugsy has a sister is Reborn.

Wait Candice wears a skirt?

EDIT: Huh



I feel really bad for her. I usually think of Snowpoint City as my home, but I’d never wear anything like that.

EDIT II: okay to be fair it looks like she’s wearing shorts in her sprite (which would also be bad for an ice type gym leader)

Yeah why do the Ice Gym Leaders always wear… not enough
I view Sunyshore as my fantasy home (big surprise). It has nice weather and presumably no mosquitoes because mosquitoes aren't a thing in their world (besides Buzzwole). It's a city, but it's not that big and seems pretty clean because a) it seems like cars are a lot less common in Pokemon because people walk, bike, or ride Pokemon and b) solar panels. The walkways are super cool. There's a nice view of the ocean. Also, they have a cool Gym Leader. The best one. (Subjectively.)
