Any one know where I could buy the Korean PC bootleg Powermon? I've been looking around online but could only find info on it.

I found the name it was distributed it in Taiwan under, which is 威力寶貝(or 威力宝贝 in simplified chinese).
 Using that for a Ruten search brings this:

I don't know what people are using as their proxy bidders but you can buy it somehow I'm sure :) There's a 2nd auction just like it, but they're both CD only, FYI.

I also found this site with screenshots, first time I've ever seen it.

That's it!  :O. I would like to try and buy it. But first I need to know. Is it already in New Taiwan dollars on the site?

Nope, it's $190 US dollars. BWAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!


Nah, of course it's Taiwan Dollars :) They wouldn't list US currency on a Taiwan site ;) As far as how to by it though, no idea what people are using. Google probably can help :p

Just so people know. I ordered the auction through Taiwan Shopaholic. Hopefully if I am lucky I will have Powermon within the month of August. When I receive the game I will post more info. Though I've read it's supposed to be pretty hard to install.

OK I know I'm getting ahead of myself  :lol: but does anyone know how to search for this game?

Edit: Or could someone please translate the title of the game? Please and thank you! One more thing: what language is the title in? :)

All I know is that's Korean. :)

It's Korean. Title is 내 친구 몬스터 2, which means "My Monster 2." I found this Korean site selling it i think. My Korean is very very low so I couldn't say much about what the site says.

Thanks Barver!!! :)

Edit: I think this site is selling it because the name of the site is Gmarket

Edit again: It's a Korean shopping site. I even found a proxy service that could buy from it. I'm not allowed to buy the game yet but will when I can. Here's the link for proxy site: here it is!!!!
Excuse me for my double post but I have one more challenge for Barver. Do you think you could find this game?

This one looks more interesting since it's 3D. I'm wondering how the heck you're finding all of these lol. I'll have to see if I can find downloads for them anywhere, though it's probably not likely they're up. Have to have my brother do it since I'm not the Korean gifted one in the family :p

I put Powermon in my laptop and it didn't even need to be installed it just booted up. More info and maybe some pictures coming soon. I was told it was hard to install but that's all lies no installation process whatsoever.

PC game originally suspected to come from Korea although my copy is Taiwanese. Basically the gameplay is that you are a hairy eared, racoon tailed, flying, water ballon throwing Pikachu. The enemies all resemble Pokemon as well but with slight differences. For example the dark purple guy kind of looks like Sandshrew. If that isn't strange enough when you kill these "Pokemon" they sound like people dying. The kind of sound you might expect to here from an old fighting game.
