Pokemon Insurgence 1.27

Pokemon has always been one of the most beloved franchises in the world, even nearly two decades running. However, many fans can agree that the main entries of the video games have been getting a little...stale. It's felt like they've found the perfect golden formula and stuck with it for over a dozen years. Many have noticed that even a golden formula can get old after a while. However, the fan community always tries to fix it themselves. Pokemon Insurgence is one of these games.

To play Pokemon Insurgence, simply unzip it and run Game.exe.

This game hits you with a twist from the very beginning and sets up the tone of the game fantastically. You start off as an amnesiac who's being prepared for a sacrifice by a Darkrai cult, but you end up being saved by Mew and an anonymous savior. The story only evolves from there and it's an incredibly engaging story, especially in comparison to the mainline Pokemon games.

The game introduces Delta Pokemon, which are just redesigns and retypes of existing Pokemon. The three starters in this game are Delta variants of the Kanto starters and an Eevee. It's a pretty interesting idea for a fangame that lets them add more Pokemon while also not having to work too hard designing original Pokemon.

Overall, Pokemon Insurgence pays homage to its parent series and adds plenty of its own to give it its own unique identity. Give it a shot if you've been getting a little tired of the Pokemon formula.
