History VideoGame / TouhouNingyougeki

* EarlyGameHell: For the ''Fire Red'' hack, you can expect the first trainer battles to be around the 7-12 level range, while your Touhoumon at best are probably just under level 5. Better get grinding.
* FunSize: [=CYamame=] and Yamame are very small compared to the trainer. Other Touhoumons are generally about a third (for Chibi forms) or equal (for standard and EX forms) size to your trainer.

** The ''Advent'' line of Touhoumons are derived from the doujinshi ''[[Anime/FinalFantasyVIIAdventChildren Advent]] Cirno'' which makes it a shoutout by extension. However, Advent Yuyuko (who has yet to make any appearance in the doujinshi series proper) is definitely a shout-out to [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Sephiroth]].

* SpiritualSuccessor: Gets one in the form of [[VideoGame/GensouNingyouEnbu]], a Touhoumon game that is built from the ground up and takes place in Gensokyo, rather than being a ROM Hack.

** Some versions have Gothic Mystia and Princess Wriggle 'mons, as a shout out to a doujin by the same name by "Food Cycle Team". Or [=Swimsuit/Beach=] forms whose source of inspiration are unknown. Or [[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry Hanyuu...]]

* EarlyGameHell: For the ''Fire Red'' hack, you can expect the first trainer battles to be around the 7-10 level range, while your Touhoumon at best are probably just under level 5. Better get grinding.

** Taken UpToEleven when one version incorporates [[YumekuiMerry Merry Nightmare]] into the mix.

* DemonicSpider: In the early mods, Rumia. Why? It infests almost every halfway-dark places in Kanto, it confuses, it lifedrains, and ''it has Shadow Tag'' (you can't switch your Touhoumon out) ''as common ability''. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And it gives meager experience]].

** The game references Character traits in various ways, from the Yuuka line having the lowest speed (while having good stats in everything else) to Patchouli learning various types of attacks.

* DudeLooksLikeALady: Earlier mods didn't adjust gender ratios, resulting in [[UnfortunateImplications lots of male Touhous with very female appearance]]. This still happens in newer mods, but at least male Touhous are much rarer now.

''Touhou Ningyougeki'' (東方人形劇, lit. ''Touhou Puppet Play'', also commonly referred to as ''Touhoumon'') is a [[GameMod modification]] of [[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Pokemon FireRed]] (though now a ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Pokemon Emerald]]'' version also exists), replacing most of the 386 Pokemon with as many VideoGame/{{Touhou}} characters as possible. Several English variants have been released with the same premise, but differ in various ways from the original in terms of locations, levels, obtainable Touhoumon, and other details. The patches usually regarded as 'official' Japanese patches are versions 1.53 (which keeps the typing from the original Pokemon game intact) and 1.812 (which redid the typing altogether).

A long time ago, Patchouli Knowledge grew tired of Marisa Kirisame coming and stealing her books. Therefore, [[VideoGame/PatchCon she made some puppets with decent intelligence and power to keep the library safe]] because she doesn't believe in Hong Meiling at all. Unfortunately, one of the manuals had been stolen by Marisa and the thief herself made a lot of puppets for pilfering. When they came, Patchouli impatiently blew both armies of puppets and a part of the library away, included the remaining manuals. After the incident, puppets have been reproducing in the wild, and people got used to them. Time passes and they are now served like pets to everyone.

** The background story of Touhoumon is very similar to another Touhou fangame, ''[[VideoGame/PatchCon PatchCon! Defend the Library!]]''.

* GameMod: A good one, too. It even manages to balance the game even further by introducing some tweaks to the damage.

* OlympusMons: The Legendary Birds are replaced with three PC-98 characters (Kikuri, Yuugen Magan, and Konngara), while [=MewTwo=] is replaced with Sariel. Also a kind of lampshaded since you can catch and train Suwako and Kanako, which are gods in Touhou canon.

* PaletteSwap: The whole series arguably started off as something like this. It has since pushed into its own directions.
** Some mons still feel like this due to their ComMons status, mainly Rumia (to Zubat), Hina (to Magikarp), Chen (ironically enough, to Rattatta), and Komachi (to Tentacool).

* ComMons: You'll get bored fighting Chens, Momiji, the Aki sisters (in the grass), Komachis (on the water), Hinas (fishing, especially with lower-tier rods), and Rumias (in caves) pretty quickly. Especially glaring in early mods where the spawn ratio hasn't been tweaked (granted, you encounter Zubats everywhere, but...).
