Pokémon Distortion

(expect bugs)

Welcome to Distortia!
map-Region0.png

Distortia is a realm made after a clash between Dialga and Palkia. During their clash they released so much energy. different realms where pushed together.
So you will find new, and familiar places and characters from a bunch of different timelines!
Some returning places from other games are Slateport city and Celestic town!

Story

The story follows a group of friends who are traveling the region together.
they discover a group of cult members have Giratina under their control and are planning to rewrite the world with it.
At first they are seen as a joke but they quickly find it to be way more serious.
Some guy calling themselves "The dark lord" is the leader of this group, and they are not to be underestimated

Little disclaimer
The game kinda breaks if your using any speedup tools, so I'd recommend not using them.
this is also my first ever game, so don't expect too much!

Major Update v0.2.3
I'm here to bring a big overhaul update to act 1 and 2, act 3 and 4 are still in the works but making great process!
here is what changed, lets start with some QOL:
  • Running shoes are now instantly unlocked
  • The town map is given very quickly
  • You can now skip the cave if you wish on route 2 when you did it once

visual changes:
  • Reworked a lot of sprites
  • Added the gen 9 animation project
  • Colored the badges

Other changes:
  • Added a Act into screen for Act 1 and 2
  • Balancing changes
  • Some dialogue changes
  • Added achievements to act 1 for the achievement hunters (they are cross save, as long as 1 save has achievements unlocked, they will carry to other saves)
  • Some music changes
  • Bug fixes

that is all i have to offer for now, Like i said, Act 3 and 4 are still deep in development but making good process! I don't think i will majorly update these acts again until act 3 is out, if you find any bugs let me know!

(if you have old save file(s) just drag them over to the SaveFiles folder in the new versions main folder and you should be good to go!)
