Fortnite player recreates Season 5 map in the style of Pokemon Emerald Epic Games \/ The Pokemon CompanyA creative Fortnite player has reimagined the game\u2019s Season 5 map in the style of Pokemon Emerald for a very unlikely crossover. While most Pokemon fans are currently focused on the swirling rumors of Diamond and Pearl remakes on Nintendo Switch, others are looking to previous games in the series for inspiration, like Pokemon Emerald. The game, which first released on Game Boy Advance in 2004, took trainers to the Gen 3 region of Hoenn. It remains a favorite among fans of the franchise, and has inspired some pretty epic artwork and concepts over the years. But this one is unlike anything we\u2019ve seen before, as a talented trainer has recreated the map from another popular game, Fortnite, in the style of Pokemon Emerald. Fortnite and Pokemon Emerald crossover Reddit user worrywirt shared their original idea in the Fortnite subreddit. They transformed the latest version of the battle royale\u2019s map, which debuted as part of the Season 5 update in December 2020, into a pixelated Pokemon Emerald style. The map includes all the Fortnite landmarks that players know and love like Pleasant Park, Misty Meadows, and Colossal Coliseum. It also features the sand that surrounds the Zero Point at the center of the map. \u201cYou have no idea how happy this makes me. Thank you for sharing,\u201d praised one Reddit user, while another joked: \u201cI wonder what Legendary Pokemon is in the middle? And who\u2019s the champion?\u201d The intriguing map concept also got fans longing for a real crossover between the games. After God of War\u2019s Kratos and Halo\u2019s Master Chief appeared as skins in Fortnite, fans are still waiting for a Nintendo character to arrive in the game. \u201cI now lowkey want Ash, Misty, and Book as skins in Fortnite,\u201d wrote one gamer, inspiring others to suggest the likes of Lucario, Mewtwo, Blaziken, and Gardevoir as potential skins that should appear in Fortnite in the future. While it\u2019s unlikely we\u2019ll ever see Pokemon characters appear in the world of Fortnite, especially as Nintendo are so protective over their franchises, it\u2019s certainly an interesting idea that we\u2019d love to see happen one day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
