    As a means to test out Hoenn and Kanto in a new context, the Pokémon League Performance Review has exchanged the Gym Leaders in both regions to test their skills against the trainers of the other's region. In this, you set out with Brendan from the Hoenn region to challenge the Hoenn Gym Leaders, Elite 4 and Champion in the Kanto region! New additions to the story to show how the Gym Leaders are adjusting to Kanto as well as other notable Hoenn trainers who have tagged along to Kanto as well!

    All Kanto Pokémon versions exclusives are available, as well as cross Gen evolutions and specific Gen 2 and 3 Pokémon to spice things up.

    Currently the main story is finished including the Champion, and Elite 4 and Champion Rematches have been made. The post game story has not been adjusted due to hopes to change the story and add new events. I may also continue the story in Emerald where the Kanto Gym Leaders are.

    Features
    • Gen 3 mechanics have been unchanged to retain emersion.
    • Evolution Methods have been adjusted for trading and cross Gen Evos.
    • Many held items and evolution stones are held by wild Pokémon for convenience.
    • Gift Pokémon have been adjusted for higher levels and Cross Gen Evos.
    • Game Corner has been adjusted to have lower prices and better rewards and different Pokémon.
    • Some Kanto Native Pokémon have been added as wild encounters (use spoiler to see encounters)
    Spoiler: Rare Encounters (all 5%)

    Mild Bugs
    • Tate & Liza's battle may freeze if you bring 1 Pokémon, works normally with more than 1.
    • In Silph Co. on the top floor, a character sprite changes pallet as soon as they player approaches. This is the only noticeable instance of this.
    • Trainers in Caledon Hideout may not disappear after the boss has been defeated.
