Pokémon Cute is a romhack of Yellow version that gives all the original 151 Pokémon adorable makeovers—think Pikachu with chubby cheeks or a Charmander that looks like it just woke up from a nap. It’s still the same Kanto adventure you remember, just way cuter. The sprites have this hand-drawn charm, and even the rival battles feel less intense when their team looks like plushies.

Weirdly, the difficulty isn’t toned down at all, so you’ll still get wrecked by Brock if you don’t grab a Mankey or Butterfree first. The overworld’s unchanged, but trainers sometimes throw in unexpected Pokémon, like a Jigglypuff with Rollout that’ll ruin your day. If you’ve played Yellow a dozen times, this is a fun little twist to freshen up the grind.

Also, yes, your starter Pikachu still follows you—just now it’s even harder to say no when it gives you those big, sparkly eyes.
