Hack Name: Pokémon Crystal - Battle Tower Enhanced
Hack Original: Pokemon Crystal
Status: v1.0
Language: English

Info

This hack changes the battle tower to allow you and your opponent to bring 6 pokemon with no item clause. all the opponents you face have the stats they would have at level 100 along with max DVs and stat EXP.

There are two versions of this hack. generally, the difference is this:
  • [Vanilla] only changes the battle tower mechanics. Anything that would change the battle system is left out.
  • [Krusty] changes battle tower mechanics AND updates a lot of the battle mechanics (Fairy typing, moves from new games). Pokémon fought in the tower are also different

Changes

  • Game Start:
    • Players house moved to olivine
    • No starter pokemon, but check Monica on route 40. if she's there, she has something 
  • In-progress edits:
    • Wild Pokemon raised to level 100
    • Catch ratch on some mons raised to compensate (miltank has 255 since you start at olivine)
  • Battle Tower Rules. These go for both versions:
    • Removed item clause (can bring as many leftovers as you want)
    • Can bring 6 pokémon
    • Opponent brings 6 pokémon
    • Streak lasts for 4 trainers
  • Battle Tower Trainers. The vanilla version has the same mons as regular pokémon crystal.
    • All the pokémon you face have the stats they would have at level 100.
    • Nearly all BTmons that had gold berries now have leftovers
    • Seismic toss and nightshade always do 100 HP
    • Enemy levels changed to represent what level of the tower you're on (doesn't affect their stats, they still are functionally at level 100)
    • Enemy ai changed to switch more often
    • (Krusty ver still updating all BTmons, up to level 3 and ubers done)
  • Pokémon Stat Updates
    • Only stat changes in the vanilla ver are prevos. they mostly have their stats changed to match their evolutions, but never creating a new mon (Horsea has Seadra’s gen 1 stats but Seadra itself is now part-dragon and has Kingdra's stats)
  • In krusty ver, more mon stats have been edited:
    • Megas are represented by giving the Pokémon half its stat boosts.
    • Alolan versions and some newer mons are referenced through type changes (Pidgey gains fire typing like Talonflame)
  • Battle Mechanic Updates (Krusty ver only):
    • Physical/Special Split
    • Fairy type
    • Crit chances edited (no random crits, only thru scope lens, focus energy, etc)
    • Move list edited to include necessary moves (Drill Run, Air Slash, Dark Pulse)
    • Redundant moves replaced w good ones (Ember to Will-o-Wisp, Bubble to Scald)
    • More boosting moves and a whole lot more secondary effects
  • And more technical stuff:
    • Gen 1 Hyper Beam
    • Solarbeam deals 70 damage normally and doubles in sun
    • Whirlpool that can enact rain
    • Horn Leech that enacts leech seed
    • Volt Switch and U-Turn (deal less damage but keep stat stages)
