Hey guys,

I’ve been working on a project called Foxol and wanted to share it here. It’s a cloud first emulator platform that tries to make retro gaming feel a bit more modern and connected.

One thing that always bothered me about emulation is how isolated it feels. Even with games that were designed to be social, like Pokémon or Mario Kart, it’s usually a hassle or just not possible to actually play together.

With Foxol, you can just log in and start playing on pretty much any device like your phone, laptop, tablet or browser. Everything is saved in the cloud, so you can switch devices anytime and continue where you left off.

Some of the things it supports:

* Multiplayer across different devices
* Cloud saves and save states
* Multiple save profiles for different playthroughs
* Pokémon features like trading with others or even with yourself

Foxol also supports trading between many ROM hacks and original Pokémon games. Some ROM hacks disable trading entirely or make changes that break compatibility, so it won’t work with every hack.

There’s quite a bit more built in as well, like save editing and ROM patching directly in your library, but these are some of the main highlights.

I'm still actively working on it, so feedback is more than welcome. Curious what you all think or what you’d want to see added.

I’ve found my old Pokémon Yellow manual for GameBoy Colour! I’m sure some of you will be able to appreciate it for the nostalgia!

As a new player, this is probably an insane amount of time to only beat the gyms in. But now it's time to grind out some levels and get ready for the Elite 4. Tried to pick a team that I haven't seen used here. Don't hate me for my poor choices. 🤣

Extremely green to Pokémon, trying to learn and get into it as my autistic son has really gotten into too it of late, Yellow is the first Pokémon game I've really played. (Played a little Red/Bue back in the 90s, but it wasn't my kind of thing as a kid)

Just caught my first Snorlax on the first attempt. The boy tells me that's good, so I thought I'd share with the community.

Used my Primeape to wear it down and Butterfree to keep it subdued, tok about 8 great balls before it took.

Should this now replace my Butterfree, or does it play a different role in party builds?

Have a great day all 😁👍

Do youguys think this is a good starting team? And what should my last one be?
