Free Online Pokemon Game - Pokemon Volcano

I have reviewed Pokemon Volcano before but that was a long time ago, I thought it would be a good idea to revisit this free Pokemon MMORPG and see how it is travelling. This free Pokemon Volcano is pretty good and one great idea is it doesn’t need for you to download anything, no downloading and installing a program – the pokemon game is completely run in a browser window. So just register at the site and then you can start playing.

As usual, you start with one starter Pokemon and off you go trying to capture new Pokemon and train up to be your ultimate Pokemon team so you can win Gym medals and from that you take your chance trying to defeat a gym leader. I am not that good a player but they say that if you get to a certain level of Pokemon Trainer you get to be able to enter an exclusive area called Pokemon Safary Park and it is meant to have new , unseen Pokemon to battle and capture. I have no idea if this is still valid or not as I can’t find any info on Safary Park on the site or in the forums.

Anyway, about the game itself, well of course it is free otherwise I wouldn’t be reviewing it. The gameplay itself is pretty fast, moving around the maps is very good, some other games it seems like every time you move your trainer you need to wait for the screen to refresh – not so with this free online pokemon game. As with all the online pokemon mmorpgs you get to battle other trainers live, online – this is what makes these games great and the reason, I guess, that most people play – that is why I do anyway. It has chat system as well but I never tried it out.

The Pokemon available are all the original Pokemon plus shiny, dark and metal Pokemon as well and they say they are developing some completely new Pokemon which would be interesting. If you need a hint to find the legendary Pokemon in Rock Town – try Regirock, in a cave area, at the right side of the cave, beside the stone in the cave.

Here are some other hints and tips for Pokemon Volcano. I haven’t tried any so can only guess that they work.
Get Manaphy:
- Get all the gym badges and then go in the grass or the water for a while until you find Manaphy.
Easter Egg - find Arboks in the wild:
- In the wild you have about a 15% chance to see an Arbok even at level 1.
Increase Pokemon EXP quickly:
- First go to Renato then search for Pokemon near grain and you will always fight a Diglet that has very low life but give a lot of EXP, thanks to it my Torterra is level 80 and my Charizard is level 79.

A new free pokemon RPG - Pokemon Grass

I have tracked down another free pokemon game. This game is a proper online RPG game not like the Pokemon Indigo or Pokemon Crater style game. This isn't really a graphic based game like most - they are based a bit on Pokemon games from the original Gameboy and DS game carts - this game is like the old fashioned text based ones. So there is no wandering around a map using your curser keys or mouse, it is completely forum based. Forum based?What does that mean? Pretty much you have a starter Pokemon then you post, someone replies, you post again. Pretty boring hey?

Is it worth playing - quick answer, no. Long answer - no. I couldn't play at all and when I look on the forums it hasn't been played for a while. No one is around, no players at all. Maybe it get busy on some days but I doubt that.

This is one free Pokemon game that even for free is not worth visiting and trying out. I guess you want to know the name but I am not putting a link down. It is called Pokemon Grass.

Free Online Pokemon Games - Pokemon-Area

This free Pokemon online game that I am reviewing is called Pokemon-Area. It is a pretty good game to play and has all the Pokemon MMORPG components you would like.
It look like any of the other games, I guess, just like a free version of a DS or GBA game. The graphics are not really similar to these cart games. It has the same style but not the same quality. I think the graphics lets it down a lot - have a look at the battle screen - the Pokemon themselves are just too small. Maps are a little better I guess.
But of course it's an online play, where you not just play against other Pokemon but online players around the world. This where all the fun is - getting to battle against some other trainer that is a real person and not a computer. I didn't get to try this out as at the time it seems there was no-one else online - maybe it was because of the time-zone I am in in fact I am sure I didn't get to try every option and area in this game.
It looks to be a fairly popular game with lots of members and seems to be updated pretty often which is an important things to note with a free Pokemon Online game. Lots of options makes it really good but graphics let it down. The whole site works well and sign on was a breeze.
Give this game a try and comment with your thoughts whether it is good or bad or you have something better?

What is the best free online pokemon game?

I seem to get a lot of comments asking "what's the best free online Pokemon game", "what's a great online Pokemon game", "what online Pokemon MMORPG is the best to play" ... stuff like that.
To be honest I have played a whole heap of them and they are are kind of the same, they most be or they would not be a Pokemon game. What sets the good games and bad games apart is the small things that make a huge difference - things like speed of the site, how often the servers are offline, how many members play. Like all games, the littles things matter.

The best of the best free online Pokemon was / is Pokemon Crater
But there are plenty of others to try out, just go through this site and I am sure you will find one.
Here are a couple to read about . Pokemon Indigo and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon online MMORPG

Some Pokemon games have not been updated for ages but are still playable other games are updated but are not quite good enough still. I know the games are free and made by fans but you still want one that is fun to play, fast, and has enough online players to play against. Enjoy.
