This title is a 2007 Italian fan-made Mod based on Pokémon Ruby Version for the Game Boy Advance, developed by The Skulls. You play as an elderly man starting his Pokémon journey at age ten, engaging in the familiar creature-collecting and battling loop, but with a unique, story-driven objective: abolishing the world-threatening television program "La Melevisione" hosted by Tonio Cartonio. Its core distinction is the integration of obscene humor throughout the narrative, setting it apart significantly from its source material.
The game transports players into an unusual setting where the protagonist is an elderly man who, upon reaching the age of ten, begins his Pokémon journey. This premise immediately sets a different tone from the standard adventure. You will meet countless characters throughout your travels as you navigate this altered world.
The central conflict revolves around saving the world from a peculiar threat. The player must work to ensure the abolition of a program called "La Melevisione." This program is hosted by the antagonist, a feared Pokémon trainer named Tonio Cartonio, who, along with his gang, harbors ambitions of world domination.
A defining characteristic of this modification is its incorporation of obscene humor within the narrative and character interactions. This element distinguishes it sharply from the official entries in the franchise, providing a mature, comedic overlay to the established creature-collecting framework. The gameplay loop involves the standard exploration, battling, and collection aspects inherent to the base game, but these mechanics are applied to a narrative focused on dismantling the influence of Tonio Cartonio and his television program.
As a standalone mod built on an existing title, there are no officially recognized Downloadable Content (DLC) packs, expansions, remakes, or remasters associated with this version. This content is delivered entirely within the modified base game structure.
This game is exclusively available on the Game Boy Advance platform, reflecting its origin as a direct modification of a game released for that system.
