Pokémon Bushido

About

Pokémon Bushido is a fan-made RPG built with RPG Maker XP. Players take on the role of a Royal Samurai's child who trains under Sensei Sukiro and earns a Pokémon to become a Kenshi. The game starts with a tournament that goes sideways sending you across the Aisho Region. You'll face off against different clans in turn-based battles while navigating a story full of side characters and shifting alliances. Combat mixes traditional RPG elements with strategic positioning and type advantages. The game stands out for its creative blend of samurai lore and Pokémon mechanics. While it's a fan project the structured clan challenges and merit system offer a clear progression path. The Akui Clan's threat drives the main conflict with several subplots about loyalty and betrayal. Without official support it still manages a complete narrative with multiple endings. The PC-only release remains active in small circles with players noting the tight focus on tactical combat and clan politics.
