List of Features
- All 386 Pokemon available before the Elite Four, in appropriate locations
- Pokemon edits (base stats, learnsets, a few type changes) to make them all viable in the game- pick your favorites and use them.
- Move edits: some moves are added, some are enhanced, others changed completely. A few have comedic names in reference to the original project's goal.
- The Fairy type and other type edits
- The Physical/Special split
- Difficulty mod: Trainers will actually use good movesets and held items. This will make the game harder to complete, but not necessarily grinding hell.
- All TM's have infinite uses
- Legendaries appear in different locations.
- Kyogre and Groudon can now be obtained after getting the 8th gym badge instead of after the Elite Four, talk to the man in the weather institute like usual.
- You can use ANY pokemon in the Battle Frontier
- Jaun is not a water type gym leader for obvious reasons. He still gives out Water Pulse because there are no fairy TM's and I'm scared to alter his script.
- Oldale Town mart sells rare berries.
- The whole hack is really pretty simple. No mega evolutions, no Z moves, no giagntamax- just normal pokemon doing normal battling, as Arceus intended.
- The Kantonian birds have been replaced with their Galarian counterparts.
- The lilycove department store special sale is always open. In addition, the store now sells heart scales and rare berries.
- The Trick Master now has ACTUALLY GOOD ITEMS in his trick house instead of mail!
- Map edits! Not too crazy, but map edits nonetheless for convivence purposes!
