PokeScape: Use a Pokémon Twist to Enter the World of Gielinor

PokeScape is an ambitious and imaginative ROM hack that takes the classic gameplay of Pokémon and fuses it with the immersive fantasy world of RuneScape. With a completely custom storyline, more than 900 reimagined monsters, and a focus on rich lore and strategy, this fan-made title offers a creative experience unlike any other in the ROM hacking scene.

A Crossover Like No Other

At its core, PokeScape isn’t just a reskin—it’s a full transformation of the original Pokémon FireRed. Instead of catching and training Pokémon, players collect powerful creatures pulled directly from the RuneScape universe. Every monster you encounter is drawn from RuneScape’s bestiary, giving you a sense of nostalgia if you've explored the lands of Gielinor.

These monsters range from simple foes like goblins and skeletons to iconic bosses such as the Kalphite Queen, General Graardor, and the sinister Chaos Elemental, who plays a major role in the game’s storyline.

The Rise of Team HAM and a World in Chaos

The plot of PokeScape revolves around Team HAM (Humans Against Monsters)—a radical group attempting to wipe out all monsters and assert human dominance over the land. Their rise to power triggers the return of the Chaos Elemental, a being of destructive magic whose presence threatens to throw the world into turmoil.

As a young adventurer, your mission is to explore the regions of Gielinor, stop Team HAM’s dark agenda, and ultimately prevent a catastrophic war between humans and monsters.

900+ RuneScape Monsters to Collect and Master

PokeScape's enormous roster of over 900 unique monsters, which all take the place of conventional Pokémon, is one of its most notable aspects. Each monster comes with its sprites, stats, and abilities, staying true to its origins in RuneScape while fitting seamlessly into a turn-based battle system.
