Pokemon Emerald Redux:Blog #2

Hey! I'm back with the 2nd addition of the Pokemon Emerald Redux Blog. Today is gonna be a pretty short one, with pretty big changes.

Double Battle Focus

Yep, this hack is MOSTLY Double Battles. I personally think Double Battles are much more fun than Single Battles, and I hope you agree. Every Trainer that normally had 1 Pokemon is still a Single Battle, as are Wild Encounters.

New Starters

Murkrow

Machop

Abra

Now, you might be saying "WTF?!?!?! THESE AREN'T GRASS FIRE OR WATER! 0/10" or "OMG ABRA IS USELESS" Don't worry. Each Pokemon starts with 1 move of their type AND this is another type trio.
Psychic>Fight
Fight>Dark
Dark>Psychic.

Murkrow starts with Pursuit.

Machop starts with Arm Thrust

Abra starts with Confusion.

I'll be back next week with purely changes made to the starters and all the Pros and Cons of each starter.

Pokemon Emerald Redux:Blog #1

Heeeello! I am Matt, creator of Pokemon Emerald Redux. Today I'm gonna show you my first progress on what will become a hopefully good hack.
Day/Night Cycle

Yep. I added a Day/Night cycle to Pokemon Emerald. And while most ROMs don't support Internal Battery functions, I'm working on a patch to enable the Internal Battery.

New Trainer Colors

Ok, this isn't important for anything, I'm just trying to show-off. I personally really like the Blue and Yellow of Brendan and May.


Anyway, stay tuned for next week's blog where I will cover some of the changes to the Pokemon themselves!
