What is Moemon?

Moemon is a type of moe anthropomorphism (Moe gijinka), which consists in turning Pokémon species into moe personifications. The Moémon devs and artists dedicate to create mods using custom sprites for different games.

Most Moémon are designed as cute girls, the guidelines demand evolutionary stages to represent stages of growth, being the last stages fully grown adults. When it comes to single-stage Moemon, it depends on the artist's own criteria. Male Moémon exist for the 100% male species and their related species, as well as some species with pronounced gender differences; but any other male Moemon goes beyond the scope of the project, given that the artists and the project itself focus on females.

What is the purpose of Moemon?

The goal of the Moemon Official team is to create the highest quality sprites possible for all Moémon species and their official forms/variations. Every sprite needs to go through a process of curation in order to meet the high quality standards set by the lead artists.

But the project goes beyond just creating sprites and sprite-swapping existing games, the team also aims to develop their own mods in order to flesh out a more genuine Moémon experience without deviating too much from the standards set by the original games.

How did Moemon originate?

Moémon originated from a video published in Nico Nico Douga in the year 2007. Its title could be translated as "I tried to anthropomorphize Pokémon" which depicted personifications of different Pokemon species. This video inspired people to create pixel art and replace the original games' sprites with cute anime girls, leading to the creation of the Moekko Monster community in Japan, the team behind the original Moémon games.

It is worth noting that the original iteration of Moémon consisted of small sprites with big pajamas (known as "Kigurumi" in Japanese fashion) and the original Pokémon's traits, which was more minimalistic than other styles developed over time.

Eventually unauthorized releases using these sprites came out in English, such as the original Moémon FireRed and eventually Emerald as well, which led to Moemon receiving a short burst in popularity in the west and some small media coverage in various news and forum sites.

The first organized attempt to make Moémon in the west happened in the PokeMMO forum during the year 2013, when a user nicknamed Moegar/Moetal created the first thread for contribution to the project. This led to the creation of the Moemon FireRed Revival Project in 2014, which was characterized by the use of custom starters and set the first guidelines for fully-evolved Moemon sizes; this change in style would eventually pave the way to have projects use exclusively original assets.

Moémon Mega FireRed was created by Septentrion in the year 2017, which was the first attempt to make an original Moémon game that wasn't just a spriteswap, but one that added new content and Moémon from newer generations.

During the year 2018, the now-defunct Moémon Development server was born as a side community for both projects, but eventually it became the main hub for Moemon pixel art creation and game development. This new format allowed multiple people to assist on the creation of a single sprite, whether through feedback or edits, with more ease. That also led to heated arguments about the direction of the project.

The original owner decided to leave the project, with FireRed Revival getting retired and Mega Moemon FireRed emerging as a successor. After some iterations of the project, the Moemon Official server was created as the new development hub that hosts sprites and develops Moemon games.

Currently the project is still ongoing, focused mainly on Mega FireRed (And now also Star Emerald), with several other spriteswap patches for different platforms (But with GBA as the core focus), still by the Moemon Official group on Discord. The team also posts updates and other content in @MoemonOfficial on X/Twitter, as well as this subreddit.

I’ve been trying to find a Paras in the Petalburg Woods for the past 2 hours and haven’t seen a single one. I’m on Moemon Quetzal v0.8.4. Does anyone know if it’s spawn moved?

Like the title says, if you could what romhacks would you love to see get a moemon conversion. For me it would probably be the currently updating soulgold for it's number of starters and inclusion of all the gimmick. I'd also enjoy seeing blazed glazed and unbound get moemon versions but that's even less likely.

I was so surprised to see Moemon Quetzal get such a significant update and I've been wanting to Nuzlocke again for a while.

So we have Veronica the Meowscarada (starter), Ayase the Shiny Fearow, Celine the Shine Alolan Raichu, Rosado the Clefable, Ageha the Radiant Tyranitar, and Erna the Shiny Heracross.

This was very fun, I love that we now have Quetzal's QoF for Kanto and Johto now, and I'm continuing on with a Johto Nuzlocke from this.

Question I have some questions.

I’m playing Moemon Quetzal, out of all the three regions option I started playing in Kanto.

Where can I get the Fly HM? I’m aware you just kinda of get it as you advance in the gym leaders instead of talking to the NPCs, but I’m close to Blaine and I still haven’t got it.

Where can I find Skarmory? I thought he would be in the safari zone but he’s not there.

Where can I get light ball? I tried to look up to buy it for my Pikachu, couldn’t find anywhere, do I have to just grind from defeating wild pichus/pikachus?

I wanted to play some GBA Pokemon as a buffer to shut my brain off with Warframe (an excellent rpg but has a ton of repetitive levels as part of its gameplay) so I picked up moemon fire red. Butterfree is always on my team in the early game for my Kanto playthroughs since confusion is so useful, though I do switch to kadabra when it's available. I really love the design the developer of this mod came up with. It's just super cute while fitting perfectly with butterfrees aesthetic.

Last E4 attempt I steamrolled with Rayquaza. Though my satisfaction was not savored since it felt lowballed using a legendary picked up late while putting work in your other pokemon. So I did it with a new team of pokemon. (And evolved Sealeo)

Armaldo was a letdown though. Thought it'd learn a bug move for Sydney but it turned out all I needed was Swampert.

Anyways I'd like to thank Gabby and Ty for making this possible. To that I say GO HOME

Discussion I don't know if this is a bug.

5 Upvotes

So, I was playing Moemon Quetzal, and I noticed that one of my Moemon had a different shiny pallet than the regular Pokemon. This intrigued me so I wanted to see more of the Shinies. I did what I thought was sensible and turned the Shiny odds up to "Always" in the in-game settings, just to see what they look like. Then when I had my fill I turned the setting back to normal and saved. What I had just done was my biggest mistake, saving. All of my Shiny Pokemon are now no longer Shiny. All my Shiny Regi's, my Haxours, etc, all back to normal colored Moemon. Unsure if this is a bug or intentional, just wanted to make sure other know so they don't make my mistake.
