The Celto region has all four seasons with some awesome weather effects, including leaves blowing across the screen during Autumn. There's a charming new story and original music to go with new fan-made critters, all packaged in a game that feels familiar yet exciting and fresh at the same time.
As the demos are based on Emerald, Peach and Lime provide a Gen 3 experience with a difference. You'll battle through Gyms and uncover a plot from Team Horizon to sabotage them. And the settings remind me of a mixture of Pokémon and Zelda games. There are some scenes that make me think I could be in Oracle of Seasons, though I wouldn't be surprised if the team behind it took inspiration from it!
Demos for both games are available to download and play now. Head to PokéCommunity for more information!
