Explanation:
As good as Sun and Moon are, I had a few personal issues with the game, here are a few:
Almost no trainers had more than 3 Pokemon
The distribution of new Pokemon was awful, a lot being 1-5% chances of them appearing
The regional dex was smaller than the previous entry in the series
In this hack, I aimed to fix all of this.
Features:
- Over 200 additional Pokemon added to the region
- Every single trainer in the game has been edited to be harder, AI of every important story trainer improved
- More generic NPC 'route bosses'
- Bad Pokemon have been buffed to be usable, an example is Ledian being Bug/Fighting with better stats and a wider movepool (Optional)
- Level curve drastically increased, but balanced out along the way
- Every Pokemon can evolve without trading, an example is Magmarizer becoming a 'Use' item like the Fire Stone
- Various moves have been buffed to be more useful (ex: Needle Arm is base 85)
- Thrifty Megamart was changed to hold more useful items (Every item needed to evolve a Pokemon pretty much)
- Magearna and Marshadow available through ingame trades
- Totem Pokemon rebalanced to be more difficult
- Most Pokemon have their Hidden Abilities available
- Wider distribution of new moves (Smart Strike, High Horsepower)
- Custom music (Optional)
If you want to play the game without rebalanced Pokemon and moves
Go into SaltySD/SunMoon/a/ and delete the following:
- a\0\1\1
- a\0\1\3
- a\0\1\7
"Why should I play this?"
Most Pokemon fans are constantly complaining about lack of difficulty, and I feel this makes Sun & Moon just hard enough for most of the older Pokemon fans to enjoy. With a whole bunch of new Pokemon to find and use in the region, a majority of them being buffed, retyped and having revamped level up sets, I feel that this is worth playing through to enjoy Sun & Moon again, with a challenge being present.
I'm confident in how much I know Pokemon, and so are the other two people that worked with me. We've made sure to make this as enjoyable as we can.
