is it off? I guess the website is down...
What an amazing mod! Combines my two favorite game serieses, Isaac and the good old childhood pokemon games and manages to bring back so many delightful pokemon memories! The Attention to Detail is astonishing!
Maybe a dumb question but does anyone know how to know which rocks are secret in this mod? Or trees I guess.
Now I know this hasn't been updated in more than a year so this probably wont happen but krampus should be sigiliph.
gimmie the rebirth version please :c
Everytime i try to open it it says its invalid please help
it says it is invalid please help me
This is for afterbirth only. If you are using afterbirth check the downloading and installing guide in the help section. If it doesn't work then maybe your computer can't handle this much awesome.
Apparently it also doesn't work on mac so that could also be your issue.
it dont work and i dont have mac and i have afterbirth
hi, with AB+ the mod doesn't start, there is someone who can help me?
it is not for AB+ yet don't try it and uninstall
hmm... do you guys have a rebirth version?
This mod is absolutely great. Got me back into BoI
I really like this! You put so much effort into changing everything it just astounds me. SO many new sprites.
When i download the mod.
The file has no files in it and i cant pack it out.
I found a fix, change the file extension to .rar, and it should work.
I have fixed it but thanks anyway!
hey thor i modded your mod to replace brimstone with a orange version and made the impact brighter gave brimstone a new sprite and changed tha name and description
"flamethrower" "Charged flame barrage" you should add this to your mod you can have my code if it makes it easier just message me
hey thor, i modded this mod even further to replace the brimstone laser with a orange tinted one with a brighter orange on impact and i also changed the name and description of brimstone and tried to give it a new sprite. This is what i made "Flamethrower"
"Charged flame barrage"
i think its something you should do in your regular mod
and you can have my sprites to make it easier to add
if you want them
Gotta catch all of the onions m8

love the m d
That's awesome! Will Krampus be a Giratina?
Can you send me a link to that mod
how do I download and play it says the file is invalid help me please
I'm having the same issue... Really want to try this mod out, but there's an issue with the compressed folder saying there's no files in it.
Change the file extension to .rar. Bam, fixed.
WHEN I DOWNLOAD THIS, IT SAYS IT INVALID!!! HELP!
I feel your pain. I have tried EVERYTHING. if anyone knows how to fix this, please reply.
how to install this mod beacuse it was saying when im play this it's not working
Watched RageGamingVideos play it and i needed it
This may not be related to the Pokemon mod; however, during some of my runs, normal monsters gain red bars beneath them and once these monsters take damage the game crashes. These red bars appear much like a boss monsters. I was wondering if there was a fix for this?
Continuing on to my old post, i can confirm the following:
SPIDER MOD crashes the game.
DO NOT PICK UP THIS ITEM UNTIL THE CREATOR OF THIS MOD HAS FIXED THIS ISSUE.
THIS WILL RUIN YOUR RUNS
good work keep it up

but you should fix the Meowth
Game crashes on selection of Meowth/Keeper.
Any fixes available?
The fact that you sell merch for a mod wich isnt 100% complete is despicable...
everyone needs money to continue to live dude.
how is he gonna pay for school and for his pc?
I tried to play as meowth and the starting message said are you sure you want me to die? ... Then I crashed too good not joking I love this mod.
I have problem when unziping file! I have tried a lot of time but it doesn't work
I unziped it with winrar and it worked.
THE FAMILIERS http://www.noelshack.com/2016-34-1472309809-familiers-isaac.png
If nobody has suggested it already, maybe the Punching Bag could be a substitute?
the punching bag will be wynaut :/
Shedinja runs into the mythical Hoopa in a starting forest. 10/10.

Also, I would have expected Blastocyst to be Solosis, but I guess Poliwag works fine too.
This is the BEST mod I have ever seen!!!
When i download the file it says that the zip file is invalid, any help?
(and by that i mean it wont extract)
can you help or give me some way to do this cause i cant even extract it please help
I don't know if it's just me, but when I had this mod installed, the game would crash when I selected Keeper, and fixed itself when I uninstalled the mod and started clean. Not sure if this is a widespread issue or what.
Wish I could answer, but I don't own Afterbirth. Hopefully soon!
in another update, i have some ideas:
Garbodor = Gurdy
Trubish = Gurdy Jr.

this would be a really cool thing to add to this mod
i already requested that and he said he likes them (not sure what that means)
IF you can't open the file go to this link and do what is says to download the right file.
Have ye any ideas for Ragman? I think Exeggutor would be a good idea because it is psychic type and Ragman shoots psychic tears, and then the Ragman heads could be Exeggcute.
Amazing! cant wait till its fully done
Downloaded, but unable to open the zip folder...
Really well made mod! The retextures look great.
i was thinking maybe turn ditto to zoroark, but ditto is cool too!
Arceus needs to be Isaac boss
Giranta needs to be Satan and mega Satan boss
and you need to add player items, Ash needs a pokeball and re-textured Pikachu charge baby
Hey can u make a meowstic male skin on Rage Man? Its a idea ;3
Awesome mod, I've found something odd: in the flooded caves the music sometimes just stops for no reason.
the music his not made to loop sadly.
I'm like really impressed by this mod it's adorable. I love it so much!
I've got a suggestion: replace the battery with the recently revealed Pokemon Charjabug!
I wish that I could actually open it. It says "Windows cannot open the folder.
The Compressed (zipped) Folder '[information]\the-binding-of-pokemon_1.6.0.zip' is invalid."
i can't unzip it for some reason? help
Since flies are Magnemites, can Lord of the flies be Magneton?
If so, what about changing Husk to Magnezone?
The bloat is somehow even creepier
one question though, does this work for afterbirth?
Do you make the angel room about Hooh? Does the angel look like Hooh? Give Loki a Pikachu tail and the stripes for the back
Wow, your icon really complements your mod doesn't it XD
This mod is very nice but we d'ont start without pokeball this the only "problems"
the zip file was empty when i downloaded it any Ideas?
when do you plan to change more floors
Looks great, now to combine this with that one friend ball mod.
yeah as manda said, can't extract it
My game crashes after picking a character! And I have Afterbirth..
It won't let me extract the zipped file, it keeps saying the compressed folder is invalid. I got the previous version to work just fine
Have you reskinned Friendly Ball into a Poke Ball? I feel as if that is a no brainer.

Aside from that, I really like the look of this mod. The sprite work is well done, and overall, it just looks REALLY nice. Well done.
Could Judas be Sableye for a skin? :0 That'd be AWESOME if he looked like that and it would fit him I guess
Evee for eden? or would that be stupid?
There's an update coming within the next few days that contains Ditto Eden, but Eevee was highly considered!
omg this brings back some memories
I LOVE THIS MOD gj dude
really great job maybe you could have the swarmer or the hust as vespiquen or something
Gurdy= Garbador
Gurdy jr= trubish
lokii= plusle and minun
mega maw= Chandelure

those were just some of my ideas hope you like them
oh and:
ghost that spits a lot of bullets then dissapers (forget name)= haunter
brimstone ghost= duskull
dip= goomy
squirt= larger goomy?
black squirt= larger shiney goomy?
corny dip= shiney goomy
dingle= sliggoo
dangle= shiney sliggoo
dinga= goodra
Love the Gurdy ideas! I've treid doing Plusle and Minun, but unfortunately Lokii only has one sprite that gets mirrored
i want the bos reskins only how do i do that
Only copy the bosses folder (found in gfx) to your resources folder
Holding my breath till AfterBirth +
Does this work with Rebirth? If not, do you have a Rebirth version?
You can download and install version 1.2 (compatible with Rebirth) over at http://www.thebindingofpokemon.com/patch-notes.html
and then grab all the newer sprites from the newest version and drag them into the corresponding files
Would it be a bad idea to change Gurdy into Garbodor?
i think that that is a good idea
One day this will happen, I promise.
Shedinja instead of The Lost would be nice, don't you think?
Great idea! It'll come with the next update
also have you made anything into diglett? those guys who pop out of the ground would be a great solution!
That was the second ever sprite that I retextured for TBoP!
hey do you think lost can be pumkaboo? eden could be Kecleon (due to color change ) do you think you can do so?
I really wanna play this mod, but my game keeps crashing when I open it! (I installed it right )
You might need Afterbirth or the afterbirth version of the mod
You should edit every character! Its a little weird having Judas and the Lost and etc being mixed with all the pokemon characters.
I think the reason it is not working is because I do not have Afterbirth
You can download and install version 1.2 (compatible with Rebirth) over at http://www.thebindingofpokemon.com/patch-notes.html
Its not working everytime I try to open the game it says "Issac has stopped working
Holy f*ck I love you for this mod
I love you for downloading this mod
put this in afterbirth if it isn't plz
whats the difference between rebirth, afterbirth and just the regular old binding of isaac?
afterbirth has more characters and bosses and items
rebirth is a new game and afterbirth is a dlc for it
This is pretty freakin' cool. How far along is it?
This would go great with Binding of Legends... but i have afterbirth and can't play either.
i had the same idea
i´ve already changed isaac to pikachu and im working on a charizard azazel...
add me on steam pls
Amazing mod, good job Thor. Some suggestions: The Haunt as Ghastly (or Gengar if you can make that work), Mega Satan as Giratina if you have the patience to reskin him and Pin as Caterpie, Weedle or one of the other worm-like things. Thanks and again, great job on the mod.
those fucking nipples in the icon niceeeeeeeeee
Im glad you decided to upload the mod! Awesome job man!
Already looks really good for a reskin! maybe you could try redoing floors and characters to be trainers with specific new items? No rush. ;)
this is great
should keep it up!
by far one of my fav mods now!!
