Description
A time-traveling adventure through Johto! Instead of the traditional journey of collecting badges to become the champion, you must unite Johto against a dark force threatening its future. Explore both historic and modern Johto, discover Hisuian and Ancestor forms, and make choices that lead to two possible endings.
Features
- New Region : Explore historic Johto, featuring six brand-new gym leaders with distinct personalities and custom teams.
- Two Possible Endings : Your decisions throughout the story shape the path you take and determine how the narrative concludes.
- Custom Pokédex : Catch up to 285 total Pokémon (254 unique species) including Sinnoh, Hisui, and unique "Ancestor" regional forms like Ground/Electric Feraligatr and Bug/Fairy Meganium.
- Expanded Apricorn Crafting : Gather overworld materials such as Hollow Rocks, Fixed Charges, and Radiant Opals to craft specialized Pokéballs like the Deci, Jeze, and Geode Balls.
- Hidden Palette System : Optimize your Pokémon's DVs with specific NPCs to unlock custom color palettes and grant them matching Hidden Powers.
- Time Travel Puzzles : Solve interactive overworld puzzles that directly exploit the time-travel mechanic between ancient and modern Johto.
- Trick House : Test your skills in a historic Trick House hidden deep within the ancient Ilex Forest.
- Three Difficulty Modes : Choose between Easy (no opponent EVs or items), Normal (a tough but fair challenge), and Expert (bosses use full teams of 6 with coverage moves and high EVs).
- Trade Quest for the Master Ball : Participate in a multi-step key item trading quest inspired by the Legend of Zelda series, starting in Azalea Town.
- Sandbox Room : Access a special utility room that grants custom items, random Pokémon of any type, or instant level 100 setups to play exactly how you want.
- HM Improvements : Overwrite HM moves directly from your Pokémon's moveset without needing a move deleter.
- Vortex Move : Utilize Whirlpool (renamed to Vortex), which acts as a Psychic-type Bulldoze and can be learned by various Water, Psychic, Ghost, and Fairy types.
- Mini-Postgame : Take on additional challenges at the Gauldenrod Stadium once you reach the game's credits.
- Quality of Life Engine : Built on the Polished Crystal engine, featuring running shoes, visible IV/EV/DV stats, reusable TMs, and cheap $1 Rare Candies in the Azalea Mart.
