Pokemon Revolution Online

An up-and-coming Pokémon MMO that is currently in its closed-playtesting phase, PRO is a free-to-play, fan-made, massively multiplayer online game that is predicated around the official Pokémon games.

The goal of PRO is to overlap a balance between the features of the main-series Pokémon games, and translating it well to an MMO environment; it strives to maintain the beloved features of the handheld games, while also making changes that are needed to acclimate to the continuity and player-interaction balance that is only healthy for an MMO environment.

Written in C#, PRO aims to be the most completely developed custom-engine Pokémon MMO. While PRO's team strives to maintain the core features true to the beloved franchise, it also has its crosshairs on engineering unique content and gameplay features that will provide a fresh, unprecedented gameplay experience—regardless of what Pokémon game(s) you may have previously played.

Ambitious on taking a divergent path from other Pokémon MMOs before it, Shane & co. founded PRO in September of 2014, and they have made immediate strides in developing the project during its closed-testing phase. Development has advanced every day as it is being ushered closer to its public release—a release that may be easily be ready once enough funds have been generated to pay for the financial costs of server-hosting.

The team has rapidly expanded within a few months after its foundership; it has comprised over 15 members by November of 2014. With a multiregional team, staff members come from a diverse range of time zones, and thus there are personnel working around the clock to develop, refine and fix the content and gameplay aspects that distinctively define PRO's identity.

In addition to unique content that has been and will be concocted by the PRO team, content-oriented familiarities will be found from any generational subset of the Pokémon game(s) you may have played. While Kanto may be the only region released at the outset of the game, PRO's ever-expanding virtual world will continually integrate more maps and content respective to later-generation regions, as it already encompasses Pokémon, items, mechanics and regional maps, featured throughout all six generations of the main-series Pokémon games, in its wings.

Stay attuned to progress-updates on this blooming Pokémon MMO; we are hoping to add more transparency to this project, while it has not been fully publicized yet. To help stay in the loop, periodically check the resources we use to make announcements—the index page, its forums, and its Twitter.
