Neon Blue

Introduction to Neon Blue

Neon Blue is an exciting new Pokémon game that takes players to Eon Town, a vibrant new region filled with challenges, new rivals, and unique experiences. The journey begins when you leave your room, greeted by your sibling, who informs you that Professor Cornel is waiting to give you your first Pokémon. As you set off on your quest to become the ultimate Pokémon trainer, your path will be obstructed by the notorious Team Rocket grunts, forcing you to thwart their plans multiple times throughout the story.

A World Full of Rivals and Adventure

Apart from your sibling, you’ll encounter several rivals, including friendly competitors like May and Brendan, as well as the more hostile Denzel. The game’s progression relies heavily on dialogue and reading hints from NPCs, particularly Professor Cornel, who provides crucial guidance. You'll need to collect HMs and follow clues shared by townspeople to progress through the game.

Key Features of Neon Blue

Neon Blue offers a wealth of exciting features that distinguish it from traditional Pokémon games:

• A Brand New Region: Eon Town introduces fresh maps, towns, and events, providing a unique environment to explore and conquer.
• Custom Palettes and Sprites: The game features custom-designed overworld tiles, backsprites for the male character, and a new town map, all crafted to enhance the game's visual appeal.
• Advanced Gameplay Mechanics: Special ASM routines add new gameplay elements like releasing Pokémon without using a PC and an IV display in the stat menu.
• Legendary Pokémon: Players can capture all legendary Pokémon from Gen 1 to Gen 3, with different acquisition methods, including some accessible before reaching the Elite Four.
