Introduction
Pokemon Peridot is a hack created using the pokecrystal disassembly project from pret. Taking place in a wholly original region, this release features 8 gym leaders and the Pokemon League, along with postgame rematches and a Battle Subway.
This hack also features a selection of previously-unused Pokemon designs from various points in Pokemon Gold & Silver's development. These Pokemon were given fanmade stats to make up for the lack of finalized ones.
Features
General:
- A brand-new region for the player to explore.
- Previously unused Pokemon from various points in Gold & Silver's development. These feature fanmade names, stats, and typing.
- The player will have two rivals. Both will challenge the player to a battle periodically(Only one per character in this demo).
- Shiny Pokemon will have a Defense and Special DV of 15, the Attack DV calculation remains the same as regular Generation 2 games. Speed is not taken into account at all. This results in a 1/512 shiny chance.
- Borrowing from Pokemon Sun & Moon, certain routes will have a trainer that will refuse a challenge until every other trainer on that route is defeated.
- Move Tutors are scattered around the maps, sometimes in hidden areas. They will mostly teach moves that were exclusive to events in Gold & Silver.
- Every starter will be available through in-game trades.
- Prompt to use another repel when one runs out.
Gym Challenges:
- Gyms cannot be exited until the player beats the leader or whites out. Losing will reset your progress in that gym. Bring healing items.
- Gym Leaders disallow the player from using any sort of items during battle. Berries and other held items will work as normal.
- Gyms can be completed out of order.
- Gym Leaders will have different parties depending on how much progress the player has made.
Battle:
- There is no physical/special split. Dark was changed to be a physical type, and Ghost special.
- Added Fairy-type. It deals special damage.
- Some modern moves have been added.(See all move data.)
- Hyper Beam no longer requires a recharge turn if it knocks out the opponent.
- Teleport functions as it does in LGPE and Generation 8. The user switches out if in a trainer battle.
- Bonemerang is able to hit flying-type Pokemon.
- The Light Ball now doubles Raichu's attack and special attack as well as Pikachu's.
- The X items have been revamped. They are now a held item that activates when the holder comes out, like the Berserk Gene. They are consumed on use.
Pokemon:
- Movepools and stats updated to reflect modern generations.
- Some inspiration has been drawn from the Spaceworld 97 demo for movepools. (Houndour can learn Bone Club, Mareep can learn Hypnosis)
- New items & effects.
- Pokemon that were previously trade evolutions have had their evolution method changed.
- Pokemon that required to hold an item and be traded will now evolve when leveled up while holding the designated item.
- Other trade evolutions will evolve at max happiness.
- Pokemon stats increased to match their current-generation counterparts.
- Some Pokemon given their old generation 1 special stats for balance.
Spoiler:
- TMs are infinite-use. They cannot be tossed or deposited into the PC.
- Most HM moves have been changed into TMs. The player can freely learn & forget these moves as necessary. Surf will remain as an HM.
- Some caves have walls that can be broken using Rock Smash to reveal secret passageways.
Misc.:
- Update PC and Battle UI. The move selection menu will now show the base power of each move.
- The stat screen received an update to put the most relevant information up front.
- The map name's sign will adopt the roof color of each map.
- Pocket Watch item allows the player to change DST settings from anywhere.
- The time is displayed in the corner of the screen after obtaining the Pocket Watch. (This can be disabled)
