Description
Ever wondered what Pokemon might look like as a Roguelike? If Yes, then Pokemon Emerald Rogue is perfect for you
How does it work?
When you go on an adventure all routes, encounters and items will be procedurally chosen based on your progress into a run. After a certain number of routes you will encounter a random gym leader who will have a procedurally chosen team of their assigned type; as you progress further into a run gym leaders and other trainers will start using more difficult setups for their pokemon. If you can make it all the way to the champion and defeat them, then you will have completed the run!
Once you complete or wipe out of a run you will go back to a hub area where you can buy permanent items and catch new “starter” Pokemon to use in the next run As you progress further into the run, you will unlock more buildings/NPCs in this hub area to use for preparing the next run
How long does a run take?
It can vary based on how thorough you are being, but in my testing a complete run usually takes between 3-4 hours of in game time. There is a quick save options (REST in the menu) which lets you put the game down mid run and return however be warned this does not allow save scumming
