Description
Now, about the storyline. In this reimagining of Pokemon Crystal, Professor Elm is in deep debt to Team Rocket due to an unfortunate bet he made on the Bug Catching Contest. When he found out the contest had been rigged, he refused to pay Team Rocket. Now, your job is to raise a Pokemon for Elm's protection while you both try to figure out a way to expose Team Rocket as crooked, or raise enough money to pay off Elm's debts. You'll travel Johto, gathering Gym Badges and thwarting Team Rocket's plans, until their more sinister plot is uncovered...
Features
- All NPC dialogue has been replaced with silly nonsense. For example, Falkner thinks if he eats enough birdseed, he'll become a bird. The other Violet Gym trainers are worried about him
- All 251 Pokemon are available, including added storylines for Gen 1 legendaries
- An updated storyline that introduces additional wrinkles to Team Rocket's plot, including an explanation for Kanto's infamous limited map
- Key Item replacements for HMs
- Routes/caves/water etc. have higher diversity, with rare species becoming available earlier on
- Trade evolutions now either use Stones or evolve by level up
- Revivable fossils
- Leveling curve has been modified to be more challenging
- Much stronger Trainers, Rival encounters, Gym Leaders, Team Rocket, Elite Four, and Red
- Unlimited rematches of the Elite Four and 15 of 16 Gym Leaders (not Whitney lol)
- Some TMs are different
- Updated Game Corner prizes and Move Tutor
- Updated NPC trades
- Some moves have been updated
- No more annoying Trainer phone system (sorry if you enjoyed this, to me it was always a bother)
- Useful items (including Kurt's Pokeballs) are more plentiful and available earlier. Can also get items from Rock Smash
- Updated Mart inventory across Kanto and Johto
- Wider Pokemon movesets/learnsets
- Move Reminder replaces the Move Deleter (since HMs are gone)
- Infinitely reusable TMs
- Some item SELL values have been modified
- Your team gains experience when you catch a Pokemon
- Pocket PC allows you to access the PC anywhere
- Added the GS Ball event, for catching Celebi
- Probably more!
