This game is very similar to the old-fashioned Pokémon games and was made as a labor of love from fans. This is a great choice for players who just want more classic content.

Pokémon Uranium

Pokémon Uranium may not seem like much on the surface, but that is a true testament to how closely the fan game mirrors official installments. The game takes place in the Pokémon universe, but it takes on a new hero and some new towns as players find themselves on yet another adventure.

Pokémon Dark Rising

Pokémon Dark Rising is one of the most challenging fan games, to the degree that it has been famously compared to Dark Souls. The fights are engaging and hard in a way that is addictive. Fans of the game swear you will return to the matches over and over as you try to catch them all.
