Pokémon Z (HammerBro101 Incorporated)

Pokémon Z (Japanese: ポケットモンスターＺ Pocket Monsters Z) is the first of two standalone solitary versions to Pokémon X and Pokémon Y and the third Generation VI core series title, being the third non-remake Pokémon core series upper game to be developed by HammerBro101 Incorporated after Pokémon Gray Version and Pokémon Gray Version 2, as well as its sixth Pokémon core series upper game overall.
The game was first seen on April 18, 2014 on the HammerBro101 Incorporated website, with HammerBro101 Incorporated confirming it the next day. The game was released worldwide on October 20, 2014.
Like previous third versions, the region and starting area remain the same as in previously released paired versions; in Z, the player begins their journey from Vaniville Town and travels across all of Kalos.
==Blurb==
The Kalos region has fallen into disarray...
...A world where the balance between life and destruction is disrupted!
* New Mega Evolutions!
* Two New Zygarde Formes: 10% and Complete Formes!
* New Feature: Hyper Training!
* Explore brand new locations in Kalos!
* Find Zygarde and use it to restore order to Kalos!
==Changes from Pokémon X and Y==
===Gameplay===
*HMs are removed, meaning former HM moves have become TMs, and field HM moves are replaced with Ride Pokémon.
*The roaming mechanic for Pokémon has been removed, making it less frustrating to catch certain Legendary Pokémon.
*Both Xerneas and Yveltal are absent from the Team Flare Secret HQ, instead being found in the Allearth Forest and Kalos Canyon respectively. Because of this, neither of them is used to power the ultimate weapon; instead, Zygarde in its 50% Forme is taken from its chamber in Terminus Cave to be weaponized. Before it is awakened, it is seen hibernating in its stone form, similar to how Xerneas and Yveltal hibernate in their tree and cocoon forms respectively.
*The framerate has been increased to 60 FPS, and the frame rate drops have been addressed.
*Diancie, Hoopa, and Volcanion are post-game Pokémon instead of being event Pokémon.
*The player can now explore more of Kalos thanks to the addition of anime exclusive places such as the Allearth Forest, Kalos Canyon, and Mega Island.
*Zygarde receives two new Formes: its 10% Forme and its Complete Forme.
*Some Gym Leaders are reordered: Clemont is now the second Gym Leader, Grant is the third, Korrina is the fourth, and Ramos is the fifth. The appearance of the player's Gym Case has also been reordered: the Voltage Badge is now the second badge, the Cliff Badge is the third, the Rumble Badge is the fourth, and the Plant Badge is the fifth.
*New Mega Evolutions are introduced, such as Mega Charizard Z, Mega Mewtwo Z, Mega Greninja, Mega Delphox, Mega Chesnaught, Mega Xerneas, Mega Yveltal, and Mega Zygarde (only for its 50% Forme).
