History VideoGame / PokemonSnakewood

* ShoutOut: All over the place, but thankfully the game is not bogged down with them.

* ChainOfDeals: An [[GuideDangIt extremely convoluted]] one which ends with you fighting and potentially catching [[BonusBoss Turmur]].

''Pokemon Snakewood'' is, in essence, ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Pokemon Ruby]]'' [-[[RecycledInSpace IN]] A [[ZombieApocalypse ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE]]!-]

While obviously DarkerAndEdgier, Snakewood keeps a very dark sense of humor throughout the story, never quite taking itself too seriously. Its cliches are constantly {{Lampshaded}} to the point where it's clearly BetterThanABareBulb.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent:
** The Inquisition's headquarters, with strange warping entrances, a [[RefugeInAudacity ludicrously quirky]] mini-boss squad, and all in all the game's tongue in cheek humor cranked up to twelve, mitigated only by the [[TrialAndErrorGameplay frustrating puzzles every so often.]]
** You encounter [[VideoGame/{{Telefang}} Denjuu and their human partners.]] And naturally battle them too.

* BossRush: Your faceoff against the Deadly Seven before you enter Lilycove is the biggest one yet. You have to fight the ''ten'' of them one at a time ''without breaks'', and each of them have at least 3 Pokemon. Fortunately, two of these "Seven" full heal your party before fighting you.

* BloodierAndGorier: The original games were rated E for everyone. This mod... isn't for children, to put it mildly.

** The egg you obtain near the beginning of the game can eventually turn into [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Entei, Raikou, Suicune or Celebi]] depending on what stone you use on it. with a Moon Stone, it turns into a[[spoiler:n Unown that can learn most TM moves and [[LethalJokeCharacter outclasses Arceus in stats]].]]

* PunnyName: Zombie mons have names like 'Boilbasaur' and 'Rotmander'. And then we have some of the Witches on the way to Fortree, like the Witch Doctor (who simply heals you), [[Film/TheBlairWitchProject Blair Witch]], the Sand Witch (before fighting her, the player comments on her looting tasty…),

* NintendoHard: Instead of starters, you get normal Pokemon (Koffing, Baltoy and Paras), other trainers' Pokemon have very high levels with overpowered movepools and abilities and the puzzles suffer from GuideDangIt.

* HybridMonster: A particularly morbid example; one trainer on Route 121 boasts about the various Pokemon he cut up into pieces, then combined them to make A Monster (sic).

''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' has been the focus of many a GameMod and ROMHack. There's the MoeAnthropomorphism of ''VideoGame/{{Moemon}}'', the ''[[VideoGame/TouhouNingyougeki Touhoumon]]'' series that replaces the familiar {{Mons}} with the cast of ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'', the world expansion of ''VideoGame/PokemonBrownAndPrism'', and more unusual fare such as ''VideoGame/PokemonQuartz''.

* [[spoiler: BigBad: Its kinda ambiguous at first. At first, [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Meteor]] seems to be the villain. Then they make it seem its the [[HorsemenOfTheApocalypse Four Horsemen]]. Then when you first reach Lilycove, the Inquisition's leader, Chloe, seems to take that position. But after you beat the Champion, Senex seems to take over as Big Bad, with his two Dragons finally trying to get their hands dirty.]]
* [[spoiler: BigDamnHeroes: When Misery fights the Inquisition at Lilycove, they are ambushed by Chloe, two Inquisition Footsoldiers, and two Zombies, but just when it seems like the protagonist is gonna lose, two Dragons show up and eat both the Footsoldiers and the Zombies.]]

* [[spoiler: CoDragons: [[ManipulativeBastard Gleis]] and [[SmugSnake Temulence]] are this to Senex.]]
** [[spoiler: DragonInChief: Out of Senex's two generals, Gleis is the one that has a more active role in their boss's plans.]]
** [[spoiler: DragonTheirFeet: It takes half of the game before Temulence even shows up. And when he does show up, he uses Denjuu and doesn't even take you seriously. By the time you fight him in Lilycove, however, he has finished playing around and hiding behind the scenes.]]

* [[spoiler: EvilAllAlong: [[ManipulativeBastard Gleis]] turns out to have been this. [[FalseFriend Alicia/War]] also counts.]]

* HopelessBossFight: [[spoiler: Wattson's]] team is supercharged to level 100, at a time when yours is likely in their 30's, the first time you fight him. In addition, [[spoiler: stepping on particular panels in the Inquisition's headquarters will trigger a similarly overleveled encounter.]]

** [[spoiler: ObfuscatingStupidity: After battling Senex, they are revealed to have been faking their insane antics the entire time.]]

* [[spoiler: Villainous Breakdown: After you beat the Champion, Gleis slowly suffers one. He goes from a [[TheStoic calm]], ManipulativeBastard that is completely willing to manipulate you and battle you with Pokemon and becomes a [[AxCrazy crazy]] sociopath that is ready (and openly stating his desire) to kill you.]]
