Language: English

Info

The goal of this ROM hack is to make the ultimately enhanced vanilla Emerald. v7.4 now has two variants to it, Deluxe and Legacy. Deluxe uses the Battle Engine Upgrade v1 by DizzyEgg which includes newer generation mechanics, moves, abilities, and such, whereas Legacy does not. Legacy Variant will have 100% vanilla compatibility like previous versions. Deluxe also includes gen four evolutions like Leafeon and Froslass, Legacy and Deluxe are otherwise the same in terms of gameplay besides a few differences in the available optional patches.
