Info
"This is a purist’s enhancement of Pokemon Blue, Red, and Green. The goal is to enhance the original games for excellent replayability without bringing in mechanics, moves, sprites, visuals, type matchups, or pokemon that were introduced in later games. It makes the bulk of the 151 original pokemon all more obtainable and usable in the early game, with better movesets and more balanced stats. Many moves in the game were rebalanced or modified. There are more bug, poison, and ghost-type moves available. The focus is on getting a useful set of moves available for every single pokemon in the game. Front sprites were updated to be just about the best set of sprites from Red/Green/Blue/Yellow overall. All 151 pokemon are obtainable in all versions of this hack without any trading needed. Many small quality-of-life tweaks were made. Move bugs that can be used to your own advantage (like the leech seed/toxic bug, the hyper beam no recharge on faint bug, etc.) are unchanged because they are quirks of the battle engine that you can use as your own tool.
Although there are 3 versions of this hack for Red, Blue, and Green, they only differ in title screen/intro visuals. Whatever color you like best is the one you should use!"
