Description
“Pokémon Modern Emerald” is a modernization of the original “Pokémon Emerald” game. This game offers all the QOL features and improvements that I’ve always wanted since I got my hands on the original game in 2005. Think of this as a 2.0 update for the original game. This game is not a “difficulty hack-rom”, and never will be. If you want a super difficult version of Pokémon Emerald there are already a lot of good hack-roms available. The idea behind this game is to play it instead of the original “Pokémon Emerald”, especially for those who want a vanilla experience with more features: simple difficulty modes, move splits, QOL features, new Pokémon, new areas, new rematches, and a large etc.
This hack is a “3rd generation hack”, meaning that it doesn’t try to mimic later generations and, although certain features and improvements from later generations are included, this hack is a 3rd generation game at its core. Don’t expect all the new moves from later generations, or being able to catch 900 different Pokémon. This hack does not include the “Battle Engine Upgrade” or anything similar, but it does include certain mechanics from it (like the OPTIONAL Physical / Special split that happened in Gen. IV, or the Fairy Type). There are a total of 423 Pokémon, including 2 from Generation 8 and 3 from Generation 9.
In addition, the game is incredibly modular. When you start a new game, a menu that contains dozens of options to customize your experience will appear. This includes:
- Gamemode: Select a preset to have a closer experience to the original Emerald, or a more up-to-date experience.
- Features: Select a ton of new features that will enhance the game. Includes a Fake-RTC for those with flashcards / emulators without RTC.
- Randomizer: Randomize every aspect of the game, from inside the game.
- Nuzlocke: Create your Nuzlocke rules!
- Difficulty: Customize the difficulty of the game with pretty simple options. Hard, or easy? Your choice.
- Challenges: Select some challenges to test yourself.
Features
- RTC Type: Choose between using a real clock, or using a fake clock. Fake clock rate is 1h irl, 1 day ingame.
- Shiny Chance: 8192 (Emerald default) – 4096 (Gen VI+) – 2048 – 1024 – 512.
- Item Drops: Items held by wild Pokémon, when defeated, will be dropped and obtained by the player. Forget about catching it or using Thief!
- Pokémon Faint: Your Pokémon will stay in the FAINTED status, meaning that you can’t use them again. CAREFUL as it could end your adventure if you lose all your Pokémon (Previously known as Perma Faint).
- Uncaped wondertrade. No 3-daily limit.
- Easier Feebas: If enabled, Feebas have a 5% chance to appear around all Route 119.
