What is Pokémon Dark Cry: The Legend of Giratina?
A fan game in the RPG genre, Pokémon Dark Cry: The Legend of Giratina takes the classic Pokémon formula and attempts a new adventure. Initially a ROM hack of official games, it expanded into a new region-the Trion Region-and an original storyline. Team Rocket returns, with members Jesse, James, and Meowth-this time attempting to awaken Giratina and use it to conquer the world. Your task is to stop them before it is too late.
The game features Pokémon from generations I through IV, with some original Fakemon to encounter. One of the outstanding features of the game is the Recap System, which updates the trainer of key events should they take a break from the game-a very handy feature for busy trainers.
How to Play
- Travel through the Trion Region while battling Trainers, catching Pokémon, and uncovering the plans of Team Rocket.
- Build a powerful team out of 400 plus Pokémon from the classics to new ones.
- Use the Recap System to jog your memory of the story events after a long break.
- Fight Team Rocket battles to stop Giratina from falling into their clutches.
Making Your Life Easier
- Balance Your Team: With four generations of Pokémon available, keep your party diverse with many types to counter any foe.
- Focus on the Recap System: Should you go for a break, check the recap to keep your focus on the story.
- Thorough Exploration: The Trion region hides much in the way of rare Pokémon and items-do not rush.
- Level With a Plan: Team Rocket's bosses are strong, so make sure your team is up for most of the major battles.
Backstory
The Dark Cry was created by a fan team consisting of Pokémon creators such as Mitchel1, Mindfreak, and Moebius, among others. It started as simply a ROM hack but soon evolved into this huge fan game with its lore, region, and mechanics intertwining. This too is not a genuine Nintendo release, so it is considered a love letter merging nostalgia with creative new ideas.
