I'll PM you a link to the version for testing.
You hit the nail on the head, there. I see those people on Reddit too. "Looking for a hack that doesn't bother with any story crap and just lets me do the postgame" and I literally want to find them and set their computers and 3DSs on fire, then put on sunglasses and walk away while it explodes behind me and I give a cheesy one-liner. I don't understand why those people bother playing the games at all. Clearly all they want is a battle simulator run by Smogon, and those already exist. Why can't they just get the hell out of the fandom and let us enjoy the games for what they are?
I know that Johto technically doesn't have its own Elite Four, but I have literally always called it the Johto Elite Four for as long as its existed, so it is extremely hard for me to call it anything else at this point, because that's still what I think of it as. So while you're technicallly right, and I accept that, it doesn't change what I've called it and thought of it as for the past 16 years :p Sorry about that.
I think I will improve the one in Christmas for the full version. The battles will still work the same way, but there will be a bit more variety in the opponents you can face, so it isn't just the same few random people and that's it. Well, I might actually make that a separate facility. It would probably be easier to keep the standard Battle Tower once it moves to Crystal, but keep a facility that works the same way in Johto as well, for the same purpose.
That's what I'm saying. A lot of people act like the hand-holding in later gens is something new. I just remind them "FireRed had a sign in your bedroom telling you how stairs and doors work, wouldn't let you leave Pallet Town until you'd read how to open the Start menu, and Prof Oak held your hand and showed you how to battle. Then the Old Man forced you to watch him show you how to catch a Pokemon. Don't act like this is something new."
