About the Game
Pokémon CAWPS is a fan-made ROM hack of the game "Pokémon FireRed" that replaces the traditional story with a new one. The game follows the adventures of a female police officer named Brittany in the city of Fuchsia, which is overrun with crime and corruption.
In "Pokémon CAWPS," players take control of Brittany as she navigates through the dangerous streets of Fuchsia City. Brittany's job is to fight crime and bring justice to the city, and players will need to help her catch criminals, investigate crime scenes, and protect innocent citizens.
The game features a unique and mature storyline that deals with serious themes such as crime, corruption, and morality. The player's choices and actions will have consequences on the game's outcome, making it a truly immersive experience.
🚔 A Different Role in Hoenn
Instead of beginning a standard Pokémon journey, you join the Hoenn police force.
Your responsibilities involve:
- Investigating crimes
- Completing police assignments
- Arresting criminals
- Solving incidents throughout the region
- Battling suspects using Pokémon
The story follows a very different path from the original Pokemon Emerald. Gym challenges and the Pokémon League are not part of the main progression system.
🌍 Hoenn With a Different Story
The game uses the Hoenn region from Pokémon Emerald, but many events, characters, and conversations have been rewritten.
According to the creator, this version of Hoenn presents a darker and more exaggerated interpretation of the Pokémon world. Violence, crime, and mature subjects appear throughout the story.
🎮 Features Found in Pokemon CAWPS
Some of the documented features include:
- Play as a police officer
- Two starter Pokémon early in the game
- Custom story events
- Grinding Cave for training Pokémon
- Female protagonist option
- Modified evolution methods
- Stronger Rock Smash attack
- No Gym Challenge
- No Pokémon League progression system
These features help distinguish CAWPS from most Emerald-based ROM hacks.
🦊 Starter Pokémon and Team Building
One unusual aspect of CAWPS is that you receive two Pokémon early in the adventure.
The game also changes several evolution methods:
| Feature | Pokemon CAWPS |
|---|---|
| Trade Evolutions | Use Moon Stones |
| Umbreon Evolution | Moon Stone |
| Espeon Evolution | Sun Stone |
| Evolution Stones | Available for purchase in Lilycove Department Store |
These adjustments reduce the need for trading and make certain Pokémon easier to obtain.
⚠️ Mature Content Warning
Pokemon CAWPS was intentionally designed for older audiences.
The creator and community reviews frequently mention:
- Strong language
- Dark humor
- Violence
- Criminal investigations
- Mature themes
If you are looking for a traditional Pokémon adventure similar to Emerald, this hack takes a very different direction.
