This release is more of an incremental thing. It fixes a few bugs that people have encountered, but it also adds the updated Merson Cave map I showed off earlier. Give it a whirl if you’d like!

EDIT: The creator of this unofficial release has edited their post to add “This is an awful and unbalanced version of the hack. I’m not even sure if it still works. This isn’t fun unless you’re a straight up masochist.” So – play at your own risk!
A fan of rijonAdventures has released a modified version of Pokémon rijonAdventures!
Yes, I was fully aware that the old map was ugly and outdated compared to many of the new areas in the game. It’s good to refresh something every once in a while. (Especially since the map hasn’t been touched for years.)

A new beta will be released on December 25th! The beta will contain the entire campaign right until the Elite Four is beaten – South Rijon and a few secret areas will remain secret in the beta being released this Christmas.
I’ll keep posting updates, but for now, ciao!

Another long while! But I’m still alive! School’s finally over! Time to introduce another character!
Nina trains flying-type Pokémon. At the start of the game, the Elite Four are on official leave, so Nina, a member of the Elite Four, is walking around the region looking for traces of Lugia. You’ll first see her in the Rijon Tunnel doing a bit of exploration. Meeting her is mostly crucial to the story, as after the league campaign you’ll be meeting her again and helping her out for something big…
(From the previous post and this post, you’ll notice that I’ve added a Javascript that zooms in on thumbnails. A lovely script, at that.)

Been a while since my last update (three months). Much too busy this year, though I’ve been doing things. I’m not dead!
A lot of things are worked on, never you worry. The project goal has been thrown off a fair bit, but in the process, I can make a whole lot of refinements to the game. And clean up my dirty work. Maybe I’ll be able to release a beta with all of the Rijon region accessible.
In the meantime, take a look one of the kinds of changes I’m making.
Apparently, the computer of the artist who’s working on rijonAdventures’ excellent art has needed a reformat. But, hopefully I can show you guys more art later on!

The first time you walk into the Seashore City gym, there’s a surprise in store.
What kind of gym is this?!
The Gym Leader in this gym is Sheral. She’s a Psychic trainer who you can fight in the beta. Speaking of the beta, the layout is slightly different between the final and the released beta.
The problem is now locating where she is in the gym.
Here? Here? Or here?
It’s quite a large gym. She’s in so many different places. They’re not her. Who’s the real one?
Where could she be?

It’s been a long time without an update, so it’s time to deliver something new.
In the Goldenrod City Game Corner, which recently received a renovation, there’s a new game!
This is a game of luck!
Put down a some of your money, and get coins. A bit devious, isn’t it? But, you have to be lucky! In the screenshots above, the player can put down 500 yen in a game of chance.
A variety of outcomes occur…
There are numerous outcomes dependent on chance. If you are unlucky enough to get “Bankrupt” (which happens often) then you’ll lose your bet. If you get a “no bonus”, you don’t lose your money. If you get any coins out of this, you still lose your bet but you get some coins out of it. On the table in the screenshot above, you can get 50 coins, but…
If you’re lucky, you can get up to 250 coins! …on this particular table only, that is.
2000 yen for 1000 coins max!?
There are different tables that bet different amounts. Perhaps you can fill your coin case much more easily?
