Overview: The goal was to create an Emerald challenge hack around a balanced Pokemon type chart with less exploitable trainer CPU as well as more variety in wild encounters and level up coverage moves. Full type chart and trainer parties included along with the rom in the attached ZIP file
Changes:
Type Chart Re-Balanced (4 weaknesses, 6 resistances per mono type)
Trainer CPU usually chooses best attack, but not always
Freeze becomes special burn, trapping abilities/pursuit removed
Dragon now Physical/Poison Special (Special Types resist themselves)
Hoenn Wild Mons better distributed
Base Stats/EXP given increased on a curve
Level up moves and TM/Tutor distribution expanded
-pokemon can't learn any non-STAB move they are weak to
All in-game moves deal damage, no sleep
-some attack buffs for balance
Gyms etc more difficult
Some Pokemon type changes for more variety
Opponent Levels:
-Leaders: 14, 18, 23, 28, 30, 33, 39, Ice{43}
-Rivals (potential level cap)
-May/Brendan 15, 20, 31, 36
-Wally: 21, 44; Steven: 53
-Maxie: 26, 35, 40; Archie: 42
-Elite4: 46, 47, Bug{48}, 49, 50
Progress Requirement: Adjustments were play tested, post game battle frontier and non Hoenn pokemon not implemented
