Pokémon and Harry Potter get unofficial crossover
The selection of Pokémon ROM hacks, which are based on Nintendo's Pokémon games but sometimes change them drastically, is steadily growing. From classics like Pokémon Blue Kaizo with its very high difficulty level to the Pokémon Gym Leader Simulator, in which the player becomes a gym leader, all the way to the brand-new Pokémon Hogwarts.
This is an unofficial crossover between Pokémon and Harry Potter, which, according to RetroDodo, is being developed with RPG Maker XP. The fan game takes place in the Galar region, familiar from Pokémon Sword and Shield, but in the year 1944, a version of Hogwarts Castle stands at the center of Galar. The Pokémon lurking in the tall grass are visible in the game world, allowing Pokémon encounters to be avoided if desired.
The pixel graphics are more reminiscent of modern 2D indie games than classic Pokémon titles, and there are numerous differences in the gameplay as well. Pokémon battles aren't shown in the trailer, but there is a brief glimpse of a Quidditch match. As usual, players can bring along up to six Pokémon at a time.
The game features dynamic day-night cycles and the ability to use a wand to interact with the game world and NPCs. Since only a trailer has been released so far, no further details about the game's content, technology, or release date are known yet. However, the project once again shows just how active the Pokémon fan game scene currently is.
