Hypno (Currently used in Gen 1 list entry)

[edit]

Since its inception, Hypno has been regarded for its dark backstory, primarily its child-abducting tendencies.[35] Its humanoid design has been cited as creepy, and a reason why its design was considered unappealing.[36] Hypno's child abducting tendencies resulted in a popular Creepypasta, dubbed "Hypno's Lullaby" being created, which centered around a song focusing on Hypno as a child thief.[36] Hypno became the focus of several creepypastas, such as popular ROM Hacks.[37][38][39]

A Magnemite plush was released with Magnemite's magnets upside-down. This prompted an apology from The Pokémon Company.[44] Magnemite, alongside Magneton, appeared on a PokeFuta manhole cover in the Osaka Prefecture.[45]

James Stephanie Sterling of Destructoid criticized Magnemite's design, citing that its inorganic appearance acted as a precursor for later designs while also appearing highly unnatural in comparison to the rest of the series' cast.[46] Other writers agreed,[47] with its design similarity highlighted as lazy or simple.[48][49]

PokeRogue

[edit]

Development

[edit]

PokeRogue was created by the user "Flashfyre." PokeRogue was initially an old project of Flashfyre's, which was combined with roguelite influences to create the final game. Flashfyre originally worked on the game by themselves for nine months, though the project eventually gained numerous people working on it, with a community soon forming around the game to work on and improve it.[50] PokeRogue released on March 11th, 2024. Following the addition of an ending to the game's story later that year, Flashfyre announced that they were leaving the project.[51]

Gameplay

[edit]

PokeRogue is a rogue-like game, in which players must select a team of Pokémon at the start and work through a randomly generated string of opponents while managing limited resources. Players clear individual Pokémon battles, with each "floor" having ten battles before the player moves onto the next one. Each floor has a set cap on the player's Pokémon's' levels, which is upgraded each time the player clears a floor. Players' Pokémon are additionally healed after every ten battles.[52] Boss opponents, which include the player's "rival" and returning characters from mainline Pokémon series games, are also encounterable, and give out "Egg Tickets" when defeated.[53]

Players can use items to cause various effects both in and out of battle, which are obtained as players progress. Shiny Pokémon- rarer, alternately colored versions of Pokémon- additionally have an added perk of increasing the player's chances of getting better items. If the player loses, they get reset back to the start.[52] Other items can be purchased in between battles.[53]

Pokémon obtained in later attempts are added as Pokémon that can be selected for the player's initial team.[52] Pokémon selected range from 1-9 points, with combinations of numbers adding up to or less than 10 being the maximum point cap.[53] Players can additionally capture a different version of the same Pokémon, allowing them to get a version with different combat statistics. "Egg Tickets" can also be used, which allow players to obtain Pokémon with special moves out of Eggs.[53] Players can also "fuse" Pokemon, allowing them to obtain other in-battle abilities and alterations to their base stats.[54]

PokeRogue is browser-based, meaning it does not require a download to play.[54] The game features a "Daily Run" mechanic, allowing players to play set paths of opponents once per day.[54]

Reception

[edit]

PokeRogue has been noted for its popularity since it released.[53] PokeRogue's popularity has been noted to be in part due to its simple formula, as well as its quality. with Ben Sledge of TheGamer stating that "PokeRogue’s gameplay is simple, and there’s beauty in that simplicity. It’s more engaging than any Nintendo-produced Pokemon game since New Snap, it’s more exciting than many of the mindless roguelikes churned out for a quick buck on Steam."[52] Theo Listston of RetroDodo also responded positively to the game, stating that "Pokérogue successfully captures that magic of the best roguelites with its swift combat and tantalising progression system that consistently tempts players with ‘just one more run’."[55] Josh Challies of DotEsports also praised its uniqueness in comparison to mainline Pokémon games, citing the variety and variability in the game's roguelite formula.[56] Following its release, as of May 13th, 2024, over one billion battles took place in the game.[51]

Developer Leaving

[edit]

On May 16, 2024, Flashfyre announced they were leaving the PokeRogue project, stating that with the size of the project, they realized they would not have time to manage both the project and their personal life, citing their faith, family, and job. Flashfyre announced that other community members would take over the project following their departure.[57]

Following this announcement, much discussion was held, and comments between Flashfyre and another member of PokeRogue's Discord server emerged wherein Flashfyre stated that they were "far from pro-trans." Following the announcement, a moderator of the Discord stated that Flashfyre "do not speak for [the remaining PokeRogue developers] as a community." A community manager was hired soon after, who proceeded to ban several moderators, causing the server to temporarily shut down.[58] More transphobic comments emerged from other server moderators, causing further debate within the community.[58]

[edit]

A roguelike fangame that is playable on web browsers.[59] Players clear individual Pokémon battles, with each "floor" having ten battles before the player moves onto the next one. Each floor has a set cap on the player's Pokémon's' levels, which is upgraded each time the player clears a floor.[60] Players make an initial team, and are able to select Pokémon captured throughout various runs for their team.[60]

The game proved highly popular upon its release,[60][61] with over one billion battles having taken place in the game by 13 May, 2024.[62] Creator Flashfyre announced they were leaving the project citing their faith, family, and job.[63]

Eating Pokémon

[edit]

[64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78]

Eating Pokémon in the series

[edit]

While Pokémon are ever explicitly stated to be eaten in the series, various aspects of Pokémon are. The Pokémon Slowpoke have tails that fall off naturally that are eaten by characters throughout the series and stated to be eaten by people,[79] though they are stated to fall off naturally from the Pokémon.[80] The villainous organization Team Rocket sold Slowpoke Tails in Pokémon Gold and Silver, which was stated to be an illegal act.[79] Slowpoke Tails are later used in games such as Pokémon Sword and Shield as food items, which can be eaten by the player character.[80]

Other Pokémon have had aspects of their design used in food, such as the cow-like Pokémon Miltank, whose milk is consumed by humans and Pokémon in the series. Dialogue in the Pokémon anime series implies the Pokémon Farfetch'd and Magikarp are eaten by humans, with the former being hunted to near extinction due to their taste.[80]

As the series progressed, references to Pokémon as food lessened[81][82] until Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, where more overt references were made to Pokémon being eaten, with the Pokémon Klawf and Toedscool being stated to have elements of them fall off naturally, which are then eaten in meals.[79][82]

Analysis of role

[edit]

The question of if humans in the series ate Pokémon has been a contentious topic with fans of the series. Charles Pulliam Moore of The Verge noted how, due to the intelligence and friendliness of Pokémon depicted in media for the series, the concept of people eating them makes fans of the series uncomfortable.[79]

When asked in an interview about whether Pokémon were eaten by humans, series director Junichi Masuda laughed and said "I’m actually curious about that as well."[81] In another interview with Game Informer, Masuda stated that "There’s a lot of fruits and vegetables in the world of Pokémon. There is also a variety of snacks and various candies and whatnot that come from the different regions. The Pokémon world is much more technologically advanced than the world of our own, so perhaps there is probably a lot of different food that we can’t even think of."[83] Interviews held with Masuda and Sword and Shield director Shigeru Ohmori stated that they didn't "know what it is" in regards to being asked about in-game sausages used in making food.[84]

Madame Kovarian

[edit]

Madame Kovarian's role in the series has been the subject of analysis. She has been noted for encompassing the "dark fairytale" themes of Steven Moffat's writing in Doctor Who. The book Steven Moffat's Doctor Who 2011: The Critical Fan's Guide to Matt Smith's Second Series noted that Kovarian's role was akin to that of a cariacture, due to her rather limited role, though Barber's performance was praised.[85] The book Doctor Who and Science: Essays on Ideas, Identities and Ideologies in the Series.... analyzed Kovarian's role, notably comparing her role to that of a stereotypical mad scientist. It analyzed her role in dehumanizing River Song by placing her within the space suit in "Closing Time," and additionally noted the usage of technology in her plans. Noting Kovarian's eyepatch, a stereotypical symbol of a mysterious woman, the book stated that, alongside other examples of female scientists in Doctor Who, fall into extreme stereotypes and were negative messages towards women who wished to enter the science field.[86]
