A downloadable game for Windows

THIS IS A PARODY AND A DEMO

THIS IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH NINTENDO/GAME FREAK/THE POKEMON COMPANY INTERNATIONAL. IT IS ONLY A PARODY DESIGNED TO MAKE FUN OF THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

One of The Gamer / MSN's 25 “Best Fan-Made Pokemon Games”


Ten years ago, Ash Ketchum never left for his magical Pokémon journey. Instead, he hid in his mom's basement, played video games, guzzled energy drinks, and obsessed over his anime waifus. One Friday night, his favorite streamer and leader of the Water Gym (Misty!) announces she will marry whoever can beat her in a Pokémon battle by the end of the weekend! Armed with no potential, skills, or capabilities of any kind, Ash rushes off on a magical journey to win the love of his life! But will all those beautiful lonely girls along the way really let Ash get to Misty?


NOT Pokémon: Misty Orange is a dating sim parody of the early Pokémon games/anime. It's based on Pokébeach's 2008 interview with Masamitsu Hidaka, the former director of the Pokémon anime. There, Hidaka stated that they did not have plans to bring Misty back to the anime at that time. This was admittedly because Pokémon changed out the girls and slapped them into bathing suits to keep boys interested with new eye candy. This game therefore is something of Misty's revenge for this. It is set a few years before the forgotten Myutsuu no Gyakushuu trailer, where Nintendo had Ash sire Misty's child and then abandon both of them for his Pokémon journey.

Do you intend to create a discord or other medium through which fans may interact?

Other than that, the demo is extremely well made and the attention to detail is fun to explore. I look forward to seeing where the game goes, and if you ever seek fan funding I'd be there the moment I catch wind of it.

Hey! Sorry sincerely for the delayed reply. I got exhausted over the holidays and am just now catching up. Thanks so much for your detailed support in both this post and your review (notably, the vote of confidence on the timeline, which is just nice to see someone else realize). I'm rounding the halfway point this month and I'm considering restructuring the project going forward. So, I am thinking about the Discord option along with some other things. I'll keep you all posted on any developments in the updates. Fan funding though will still be a no-go and I'm otherwise at a point where I don't need it, so I'm just going to avoid that hassle. Although, I do greatly appreciate the offer!

Anyway, thanks once more for your detailed and thoughtful comments and support.

sex update when

hey will ash ever get with someone in the game or be forever alone?

(+1)

Hello this game is very funny I saw a video about it by a yotuber called SuperO4LIVE and I wanted to try it hopefully it comes out in Spanish.

Estara en spanish??

¡Hola! Mi español no es bueno pero si alguien quiere traducirlo por su cuenta, con gusto lo publicaré y le daré crédito.

(1 edit) (+1)(-1)

Creator here! I noticed a lot of people are getting directed here today. Would anyone of you mind letting me know from where? Thanks everyone for playing!

(+1)

In my case, I come from a tiktok video in Spanish, from the user SuperO 4

¡Gracias! I would never have found that on my own so I will check it out!

I have a few questions:

1: when do u plan releasing the full version?

2: do u plan adding all 8 gym leader battles? (I was gonna say 7 cause misty is pretty much gonna be the final boss but no)

3: how long will the final game be?

4: if u decided to add all 8 gym battles, would u have to do something in the map and lore so the player goes from pewter to vermilion instead of pewter to cerulean or something like that?

5: will pokeballs ever appear?

6: whats the song that plays on route 1?

7: why is misty orange?

8: is there a reason for ash being obsessed with misty?

(2 edits)

Snowy, this isn't just a few questions. It's at least two handfuls or two thirds of a baker's dozen! But I love them all so I will answer them some.

Full version will hopefully be released in under two and a half years. I'm reaching a deadline that I'll probably make so I think I'm on time? The final game is planned to be around 7.5 hours (so, basically three demos, including the demo content). So you'll get an extra 5 hours of content. I can't comment on gyms or Pokeballs though so we'll seeeeeee

Also Route 1 is Cotton Island from Plok. 

)

I'm pretty sure Misty has carotenemia from eating too many carrots, explaining the orange color. And, Ash's obsession is an inference from an old Japanese trailer for the first Pokemon Movie where an older Misty is shown with another lady and a child. The child and the lady were designed to represent some artists, with the lady appearing in the movie but not having a child. Anyway, this led to the reasonable speculation that the child was supposed to belong to the older Misty via Ash. Nintendo later denied this, but instead of saying it wasn't Misty's child they denied that Misty was Misty in the trailer, which funnily enough seemed to be an admission that the child belonged to the orange-haired woman who definitely isn't Misty even though she looks exactly like Misty and has the same fashion sense. Basically, it seems like Nintendo shifted characters' destinies and axed Misty (which they later admitted doing in another context) so Ash could continue the Pokemon anime and run off with May, Dawn, etc. 

Anyhow, thanks for posting and playing!

Hey, found a bug, when i used the scape rope i got stuck in the mart sign

crap, i was unaware of that! Thanks for posting, I'll put this in my bug list of things to fix!

lappet town aowkowkow

Thanks for the comment and review! Yeah, haha, I forgot to change the name of the town in the code. It's fixed for the full game going forward, though, as are some other minor issues! 

(+1)

nah not really, i though you from indonesia since that "lappet" mean is word for joking in indonesia xD

(+1)

this is good 

(+1)

This is genuinely good! I went into it expecting something small to poke at the reason they cut Misty, but got a preposterous amount of quality in it's writing, gameplay and even technical aspects which shows this is actually quite a labor of love! It perfectly encapsulates the dumbness behind the reason for the rotation of female (:P) characters and internet/streaming culture. Looking forward to seeing more of this!

Thanks so much for this kind review and your rating! Yeah, I've put way more effort than initially anticipated, haha, but working with and poking fun at things that are dumb is fun and I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks once again!

So I tried to use joiplay to play this but it froze during the first battle hell it didn't even start the battle so I'm hoping a android version of the demo will be released so that those who do have computer's/ laptop's can enjoy it too PS please add mimikyu

Thank you for the comment! Yeah, the final release of the game will be Android compatible but the demo currently is for Windows only. I'm pretty certain I know what the issue is but it's giant mess to clean up and at present I cannot go back and patch the demo without jeopardizing the finishing the final game because I'm on a tight timeline (and, joiplay may fix the issue in a later patch in the meantime anyway). But, I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure the final game is indeed Android compatible.

This is the very first fan game I want to play buuuutt I'm completely new to this!
I have a Chromebook and I downloaded the zip file I'm just unaware of where to go from here. If anybody would be willing to help please do. 

(1 edit)

I apologize for the late response! Itch ate this comment up in the filter and I just approved it. 


I personally do not have a Chromebook (yet). So, this is all guessing from my end (so be careful). That said, I found a tutorial that installs RPG Maker XP, through which you can use to play the game. If you open RPG Maker XP and start a new project, you can then close RPG Maker XP and go to your new project's folder. Take the file Game.rxproj in your project and copy-paste it into the Misty Orange game folder. Now, open Game.rxproj directly from the Misty Orange folder and this game should open up in RPG Maker XP. Then, just run Misty Orange from RPG Maker XP directly. 

Here's the guy that has a tutorial on installing RPG Maker on a Chromebook. 

Alternatively, that content creator also has guides for installing other Windows-based software on Chromebook (in his latest videos) that might also work for Misty Orange.


That all said, I'm not familiar with Chromebook, so I'd suggest being careful none-the-less because you don't want to brick anything over a game. But, that's my guess at least? I hope this helps!

Can we get a rough estimate on the release date and if the full game has to be purchased or not

There will be no purchase and I will make no profit ever on this, haha. For estimated timeframe, the goal is April 2027, which is three years from the original demo release date (and just under two and a half years from now). So yeah, it'll be a while. But, it'll be good when it's done. 

Is it available for mobile user to play?

(+1)

The cool matey who made this game told me the final version will be comparable with Android version I'm so glad brah can't wait to play this masterpiece 

(+3)

(+1)

Just finished it. Genuinely enjoyed it. Like... a lot.

(+1)

Lmao nice

Hello, are their plans to have a route that makes Nurse Joy leave the pokecenter? And not immediately dump you for the first person she sees?

(+1)

There will be multiple endings depending on what you choose at at least two more Nurse Joys you'll run into. 

Is there any gba hack like this or this is only for windows ?

(+1)

Thanks for the comment! There's no GBA hack. The final version of the game is planned to be compatible with Android though.

(1 edit) (+1)

I wanna kiss you on your head brah I'm glad ya thought about making in android aswell (poor ahh gamers ) (me aswell)

Ahahahah thank you so much! I'll be excited to finally provide a chance for all you Android users to play! 

(+1)

this is so fun haha thx for making this 

Sorry for the delayed reply, but thank you so much for this encouraging comment (and for the review!) 

(+1)

Me and my friend had an amazing time playing this game all night tonight. So much fun can't wait for more updates and the final release

Thanks so much! I've had nights like that with my friends on other games so I'm glad to know that I've been able to repay the gaming community with similar experiences.

(+1)

very good

(+1)

I can't wait for you guys to release it for Android, iOS, Doom, on a monkey on a motorcycle at 100 km/h! Good job developers! Waiting for "the game" 2

Thank you so much! I'm still working on my unicycle lessons so I'll be able to catch up to and force the monkey to play the game upon release. 

(+1)

I'm really excited about playing this game on my phone :)

(+2)

The only thing bad about this game is that it's not finished. 

(+1)

Awesome game, can't wait to see the full release!!

😑😑

(1 edit) (+1)

Hey! I apologize for the delayed response. I get asked about joiplay frequently and was just a bit tired at the time, haha. For the full game, I do plan on providing joiplay support. At present though, I would have to completely hack up the demo's code to get joiplay working, which would just kill any progress I'm making now on the final project (which, will already be hard to finish with impeding life stuff). That said, I do sincerely thank you for the interest and will do my best to have the final product playable for you!

(+1)

I thought you not going to reply me

Thanks you😊

Take your time i can wait more than years

I was just sad that you replayed vegeta79

Before me(you know i commented before him) even if it didn't work on android 

I will buy pc for this game

So take your time kwatar

I can wait and life stuff is important than game stuff so take care

I made an Itch.io account just to make a comment expressing my Love for this goofy fucking game. Please, I need more, I need updates. Where can I check for updates? I need to see activity, I haven't had this much fun playing a Pokemon Romhack since never. Because I never enjoyed any of them, with the exception of this one. I love you, I love this game, and I love the charm that oozes just from this page alone with the floating Misty heads

Sincerely, random idiot on the internet
(+2)

this is an amazing comment and i love you as much as a content creator can love a random poster they just met on the internet. thank you sincerely for this and your artistic inspiration! this kind of commentary makes the long slog to the finish bearable, haha. regarding updates: I'm in the long haul right now so it'll probably be like three years. But, I have been toying with the idea of semi-regular updates (I don't want to do too much and annoy people, though). Just follow me on here (which you already have!) and I'll try to post stuff at least 2-4 times a year in the meanwhile. Once again, thank you so much for this great comment! 

(+1)

THREE LONGING YEARS I SHALL AWAIT!!! I wish you the utmost best and I can't WAIT for more!! Rock on!!

Just a viewer of this streamer, but thought you'd like to see a glimpse of a stream audience's reception to your demo. Gameplay starts around 1:32:00, but skip to 4:26:26 for the reception.

The dialogue, battles, direction were hilarious and a great soundtrack to complement it.

I hope that motivates you to continue and eventually finish the full game!

Woah, I was totally unaware of this! Thanks so much for posting it- I had some open time today and ended up binging all of it, haha. It was a wonderful encouragement in a somewhat discouraging week in other life happenings. I especially enjoyed his arc of starting it as a joke but then genuinely loving it. The chat's comments on the songs were also appreciated- I don't make the songs, but I do spend a lot of time curating it, haha. As a side note, I also have to say- I think Tolomeo might be the most skilled Pokémon player I've seen play this- he knows his competitive strats pretty well. Anyway, thanks for the encouragement on my continuing progress to finish this! 

(+1)

since this is a demo are you going to make a full version?

(1 edit) (+1)

Yes! But it'll be probably a few years, so long as life doesn't explode moreso than normal

(1 edit)

The current demo is a Deadpool worthy nostalgic trip, but the Pokemon NOT following orders & rebelling because we don't have any badges hampers the fun! I love the parody, but not the Souls Borne!

Hey, thanks for following up! Quick question: Did you download your version of the demo prior to this Sunday? I believe I patched the low obedience cap in that recent update (and just tried testing it) but if it slipped through the cracks, I definitely want to fix it because I don't want the game to be that frustrating! 

Would it be possible to make an android version? 🤔

add a auto run 

(+1)

It's there! Open the Options menu after loading a game. Apparently, it doesn't show if you open Options from the start menu though.

That said, I was completely unaware of this discrepancy until now. I'll put it on the lists of things to fix, thank you!

what now?

(+2)

now i have to finish the full game, on which i am devoting all my spare few hours of free time :(

(+1)

that'd be great if you did. This game does look pretty interesting 

(+3)

add "skip opening cutscene" option

You know, that's a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion!

This might be one of the annoying Pokémon things I've ever played, and yet at the same I enjoyed my time nonetheless. I do want to ask you about this game's difficulty, for a demo, though.

I get the Level 25 and Level 45 Metapod battle being annoying on purpose, since all they can do is use "Harden" even when they cannot raise their defense higher. But I found the fights with May, the Beedrill guy and Tracey particularly annoying. May is annoying because of the limited but still cheap movesets of Torkoal (Snore, Ember, and Rest. Mainly Snore and Rest for how often it puts the Clefairies to sleep, and regains Torkoal's health.) and Torchic (Mainly Double Kick's sheer power, with the occasional Protect.). The Beedrill guy is annoying because of the Beedrill's repetitive use of Fury Swipe, due to its frequency to hit a lot no matter the Girl ability's usage. Tracey is annoying because of the spamming of Smeargle's Circle Throw to damage the team and force a switch every time, alongside the additional spamming of Spikes that doubles onto that damage count, all combined with how you have to repeat that pain six times.

*edit* just pushed the update that fixed some of these critiques 


Hey, thanks for the comment! I'm actually trying to push an update this weekend that will fix some of those issues and some softlocks. This was an accidentally induced. Initially, May's Torkoal was overleveled and players would just lose quickly and move on, so it wasn't actually too frustrating. But, in the recent updates, I lowered the level to give them a chance but I'm finding this results in a very long stall battle... followed by a stall battle... and then later Smeargles, which is just too much frustration. I'm going to nerf the Torkoal again and also probably the Smeargles and I'll also look at the Beedrills. My purpose in design is to provide a comical level of frustration to the player without inciting anger (kind of like friends joking or teasing one another). Admittedly, I haven't struck that balance quite right yet and still need to adjust some things. That said, thanks for the feedback once again!

Is there a android version?
