Last year I made Pokemon FireRed VX. Well, now it's time for Platinum! Ahem-
Pokemon Platinum VX is a hack that adds more playable Pokemon to the game with a gentler approach than your average hack. The difference is that nothing is added that really does not need to be added; no new moves, no type changes, nothing. Also unlike many enhancement hacks, Platinum VX integrates all these new Pokemon as smoothly as possible. As the name Vanilla Expanded suggests, this hack is about expanding the vanilla experience without fundamentally changing the feel of the game.
Platinum VX features:
- All 210 original Pokemon from Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum (with some given much-needed easier ways to catch them)
- 155 newly catchable Pokemon, added in the same locations you can catch them using postgame-only features like the Poke Radar or the swarm mechanic
- Updated teams on opponent trainers to use all the new Pokemon
- Alternate methods to get trade evolutions (this was not changed in FireRed VX, but trading is much less realistic on DS emulators)
- A complete database of everything you will want to know about the game, including a Pokemon list, encounter tables, boss teams, and other small but impactful changes
- Postgame update: Play through the postgame with encounters and gym leader rematches updated to match the rest of Platinum VX
- Great Marsh update: Even more Pokemon are integrated into the main game, bringing the total from 347 to 365
Platinum VX specifically does NOT feature:
- Pokemon new to Gen 4
- Moves new to Gen 4
- Items new to Gen 4
- Fairy types or other type changes
- Other excessive changes of any kind!
