Pokemon Planet is a free MMORPG first released in 2014 with multiple updates since then. You can play in two different regions, Kanto and Johto, hunt for Pokemon with your friends, and battle strangers online. Pokemon Planet can easily be accessed through a browser on your PC so no installation is required.
What is Pokemon Planet Exactly and Who Made it?
Pokemon Planet is a fan-made game that has caught a lot of attention from players and has been popular for a number of years. It was developed by Brody Gilbertson and it carries that 90s SEGA games vibe that allows you to roam the open world and look for different kinds of Pokemon while still in a pixelated environment. Kinda like the first Diablo.

The game received mixed reactions, with some people liking it a lot and others criticizing it heavily due to bugs and lack of development and updates in recent years. The single-developer model of it was also criticized as players mentioned that the support was slow or unresponsive.
Pokemon Planet received praise for being easily accessible via a browser, but users on Reddit mentioned that it still lacked some functionalities because of that. The lack of a story and the ability to cut a lot of corners have also been disapproved of.
In 2022, it seems that a certain player base is still there, but the numbers are well behind those of the official Pokemon games.
