PokéThroat is a Berber86 RPGM parody of Pokémon-style journeys. You control a male protagonist in a 2D animated sandbox where encounters use turn-based combat. Defeating trainers can lead to bonus scenes, while corruption and mind-control themes shape the adventure.
The current build is v0.3, dated February 11, 2025, and development remains ongoing. It runs on Windows, is in English, and is uncensored. After many comments and story integration difficulties, development restarted from scratch. This release is not compatible with earlier saves, so players must begin a new game. The update aims to make the journey less tedious, replaces still scenes with video, and reports about 70% of the game complete. Players should check sound volume before watching, because scenes are now videos.
Developer's description
Another pokemon adventure huh? So, yes, but with a little bonus if you manage to defeat the trainers on your way!
v0.3 - Complete redesign
.
Following the numerous comments and the difficulties encountered in integrating the story elements, I decided to start the entire development from scratch. This update is therefore a new start. Obviously,
this is absolutely not compatible with the previous version
and you must
start a new game
in any case.
I tried to take into account the numerous feedback to reduce the "old school" side of Pokémon, the adventure should be less laborious. And regarding the scenes, they are no longer images but a video! So pay attention to your sound volume
Regarding this 0.3 version, there is around 70% of the game available and the 30% is very promising!
v0.2 - New release
.
New : 2 more gyms and 12 more girls.
New : You can talk to the new nurse on Pokécenter to get some Rare Candy for those who don't want to waste time training their Pokémon.
Fix : The custom menu is repaired and appears correctly.
For players who played v0.1, you need to follow this to keep your save:
You need to go to the "AppData/Roaming" folder in your "user" folder (you can open it by writing "%appdata%" in the Windows search bar or from the "Run" menu). In this folder, you will see the “PokéThroat Ascent v0.1” folder. You should rename it to "PokéThroat" simply to avoid losing the save every time you update the game.
The update also implemented the running shoes that are obtained in the first gym. You can get them by talking to Bea from the first gym again.
v0.1 - Official release
.
3 gyms and 7 girls to "have fun".
