The Professor EXP is a story-focused adult visual novel by Galaxionite, built with Ren'Py and using 2D AI-generated CG art. It parodies Pokémon and is loosely based on post-USUM events, with eight regions and eight trophies in the background. You play a legendary champion who leaves competitive tournaments, moves to a remote island, and studies Z-Crystals as a professor. His quiet new life changes when his boss asks him to help her win the newest World Championship. The game emphasizes humor, parody, and a male protagonist.
The v0.2.5 build, dated August 8, 2026, shows development is ongoing. It is available for Windows, Linux, and Android in English, with uncensored content. This update closes Chapter 1, adds an alpha map feature, fixes and expands Chapter 1 text, includes additional sprites, and repairs the gallery while adding missing CGs.
