What This Hub Covers

Pokémon Rejuvenation is a free, story-driven fangame that now spans 16 chapters in V14, plus the .Karma Files mini-chapter and a bonus side game. It is also a long game with a steep learning curve: it has 18 gym leaders, rotating field effects in battle, a Paragon/Renegade route split and a level cap system that many beginners have never seen before. The four guides in this hub exist to remove the guesswork, one search intent at a time.

If you have not downloaded the game yet, start in the Get Started hub instead — it covers the official download, Android builds and the V14 update. Once the game is running, the pages below answer the questions that come up during a first playthrough, from the very first Gym battle against Venam to the end-of-chapter choices that decide whether your run is Paragon or Renegade.

Everything on this hub is written for humans first and checked against the official wiki and in-game facts as of V14. Where the community disagrees — starter rankings, difficulty opinions — we say so instead of pretending there is one official answer.
