Story

This is largely a "quality of life improvement" type of ROM hack and does not alter the main storyline. It retains all the features the original Emerald has but adds several things to the mix to make it more fulfilling and fun to play. Remember those days when myths like going to the Moon after a certain number of rocket launches/weeks were a thing? Several things like that will be accounted for, but with some changes/twists to how they are done. There is a moderate increase in difficulty (not really big, just aimed more towards veteran players), but there are rewards to compensate.

List of Features

CosmicEmerald is backward-compatible with normal Emerald Version save files. All of your old progress will count in this game so you can pick up where you left off!
Emerald's PRNG ("pseudo-random number generator") glitch has been fixed by re-enabling its unused PRNG system, as well as adding another structure that gives it more randomness
Faster Emulation
All 386 Gen 1-3 Pokémon available
A New Evo Stone that evolves Trade-Evo Pokémon
More Roaming Legendaries, events, different sprites, etc.
Day & Night System (Early-Morning, Morning, Day, Afternoon, Twilight, Evening)
Graphics have been altered in many different areas/aspects
Upgraded B/W Repel System
TMs are reusable
The in-game Move Tutors are now usable daily
All Pokéballs (except Safari Balls) are reusable until the capture
Your Pokémon receive EXP when you capture another, like at the end of a normal battle
Pokémon’s Natures have color-coded stat boosts/drops
EVs cap at 252 instead of 255 (in order to not waste remainder points)
The somewhat steeper difficulty curve
Running While Indoors
Upgraded EXP system: All Pokémon directly participating in a battle will receive full EXP, not half unless you use EXP Share to avoid having to switch them out. This allows you to have more options for how to train
The Safari Zone's expansion area is now split between nocturnal and diurnal Johto Pokémon (North and South, respectively)
