About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Sweet 2th is a sequel to the original Pokémon Sweet hack.

Unlike the original, which was more of a reskin, Sweet 2th features:- An entirely new region to explore.
- Over 386 PokéSweets, including the original 151 plus more than 200 new creations by the community.
- Non-linear gameplay, where your starter Pokémon determines one of three possible paths through the region.
- A rich blend of whimsical storytelling with candy-themed world-building and challenging gameplay.
Story Overview
Two and a half years after creating the original Pokémon Sweet hack, the developer decided to make a sequel. Pokémon Sweet 2th takes place in a completely new region and features more than double the number of PokéSweets compared to the first game. Inspired by Candyland, the world, Pokémon, and moves are all themed after sweets, desserts, and confections. Players can explore a non-linear region, complete sidequests, and interact with unique NPCs.
In Pokémon Sweet 2th, the player embarks on a sugary adventure in the Sweet Land, a region where almost everything is made of confectioneries—from the towns and landscapes to the Pokémon themselves. The story kicks off after the events of the first Pokémon Sweet, with the player returning as a seasoned trainer of PokéSweets. However, peace in Sweet Land is disrupted when a mysterious and powerful group starts causing chaos by using sour and bitter-flavored PokéSweets, which threaten the sweet harmony of the region.The hack combines a whimsical candy theme with modern Pokémon mechanics such as Mega Evolution and customizable gameplay elements, making it both a fun and strategic experience.
