About

Ditching the standard starter choice, this Kanto-based RPG forces you into a bond with a stubborn, electric mouse that refuses to stay in its ball. By leaning heavily into the anime's aesthetic, the game lets you walk alongside your iconic partner, who reacts to your journey with distinct moods. Beyond the familiar quest to topple Team Rocket and conquer the Elite Four, it serves as a definitive, slightly polished remix of the original generation. It is the quintessential experience for anyone who wants to live out their own version of the classic television series while managing a roster of 151 creatures.
