Welcome to the Pokémon Unbound Nuzlocke guide. Pokémon Unbound is a fan-made game set in the Borrius region with a unique story and challenging gameplay. Your mission is to protect the region from the Shadows, an organization trying to release a dark force that was sealed away centuries ago.
Key Features
Revamped Game Engine
