I really have only 1 request, make you able to find pokemon like some feature on the pokedex
If you're asking for something like the DexNav, I won't be including that in this hack.
This hack is amazing. The options it gives to us to customize, bug fixes, QoL stuff and everything. Simply amazing. Keep up the good work!
I would like to recommend some things for a possible implementation in the future like the Trainer Facing Fix (w/ Trainer Tower support, I know it's silly, but I think it makes the game "better" in the eye). Also changing the Item/TM/HM Pickup Sounds to the proper fanfare that plays on Emerald instead of the Level Up tune would be a good one.
I'm not going to implement the trainer facing fix because it seems like reverting it to the Gen 1 behavior was an intentional decision by Game Freak. I'm not super into changing the fanfares to the Emerald standard, but there are situations where the item pickup fanfares are not congruent with Gen 1 which I may fix. As of right now my most preferred option is to leave them as they are, but thanks for bringing it up for my consideration.
I just realized that Challenge Mode accidentally turned on itself.
1. Save game and return to the Key Menu via Start+Select+A+B
2. Select Key Menu and don't change any options. Back out with B and go back to your game.
3. Your game will now be in challenge mode.
4. Repeat 1 and 2, challenge mode will turn off.
EDIT: Nevermind! Turns out that I actually had Easy Mode on this entire time by mistake, thinking that I had Normal Mode on.
This had me scratching my head for a bit trying to figure out how that could be happening. Thanks for the edit explaining it!
I have a question. Is there an intention to bring back Apricorn Balls? Thanks in advance!
One of the goals for this hack is for everything to be legal in Gen 3. Pokemon caught in Gen 3 can't legally be in Apricorn Balls, so I won't be implementing them.
Are there any plans on making faraway island Mew Japanese?
Also, how do you get the sudowoodo in Battle Tower to battle you?
And finally, is there a plan to make Agate Celebi/Wishmaker Jirachi available like in Heliodor?
No, there aren't plans to make Mew Japanese. I'd rather remove Mew than have a random Japanese Pokemon available for capture in the wild. I settled on the compromise of an English Emerald Faraway Island Mew because even though it's technically an unreleased event it will make it through Bank and Home. Doing it this way creates the least amount of weirdness for players.
To battle Sudowoodo, dump some Fresh Water on it. Make sure it's in your bags when you talk to it.
I don't know what Heliodor is or how they implement getting these Pokemon. I have plans to make FRLG+ compatible with the US Colosseum Bonus Disc which would allow it to receive Wishmaker Jirachi directly. I may also make it compatible with the JP Colosseum Bonus Disc for Celebi, depending on when I get to it. There are no plans to give the player these Pokemon directly in game; you will have to link to the discs (once that is implemented) or trade for them.
Thanks for your comments, everyone.

There have been a few inconsequential bugs and oversights found by players since the last release that have no real effect on gameplay, as well as a typo in the Master Trainer dialogue. I'll be waiting for more substantial bug fixes or features to update the patch to fix them.
My time has been extremely limited of late, so since FRLG+ is essentially complete it is kind of on maintenance mode right now. I'm also working on other projects in my free time, most notably taking over CrystalDust since Sierra has stepped down, so FRLG+ is low priority. Barring the discovery of ridiculous bugs that need to be fixed quickly, expect updates and changes to be much slower than they were initially.
