Description
A vanilla-style difficulty and fakemon ROM hack of FireRed that replaces 149 of the 151 original Gen 1 Pokémon with freshly designed Delta variants. The game aims to provide a fresh experience while preserving the authentic Generation 3 feel, featuring redrawn pixel art, altered typings, and rebalanced trainer teams.
Features
- 149 Delta Variants : Almost every Kanto Pokémon has been replaced with a new regional form featuring custom sprites, new typings, and adjusted base stats.
- Full Accessibility : All 149 Delta variants are obtainable before defeating the Elite Four, with trade evolutions removed to allow for single-player completion.
- Vanilla Gen 3 Mechanics : To preserve the original experience, the game does not include the Physical/Special split, Fairy types, or reusable TMs.
- Trainer & Boss Overhaul : Every trainer in the game, including Gym Leaders and the Elite Four, has been edited with new teams to reflect the Delta Pokémon.
- Move Rebalancing : Various moves have been tweaked, including buffs to HM moves and power/PP adjustments to align with changes made in later generations.
- Postgame Content : "Pick one" style Pokémon such as starters and fossils have been added to Altering Cave in the Sevii Islands for postgame collection.
- Indoor Running : A quality-of-life update that allows players to use the Running Shoes inside buildings.
- Visual Tweaks : Includes updated overworld palettes and corrected grass animation colors for a more polished look.
- Updated Evolution Methods : Certain Pokémon have had their evolution requirements changed, such as Vulpix now evolving via a Thunder Stone.
- Complete Documentation : A comprehensive spreadsheet is available detailing every Pokémon's new abilities, base stats, typing, and movesets.
