Hi everyone, I'm not really active in this community but thought the crowd here would appreciate the project I just finished.
I recreated the gen 1 battle system in the style of the original Pokedex design from the anime. The game was created in PICO-8, which is a fantasy game console that has a storage limit of 32KB. Here's what it looks like:
You can play it for free on lexaloffle: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=52388
Or itch.io: https://alanxoc3.itch.io/picodex
It uses mostly "Pokemon Stadium 1" mechanics, with a few tweaks that are described in detail at the above links.
