Imagine: you've just started playing a new romhack. Bravo! More hacks should learn from this one. It would've been easy to just stack everyone with hyper offense teams, but they actually studied every encounters to make it unique. Move selection is quite limited, probably due to the fact that trainers must use the most optimal sets right from the start (given that you ALSO get the game's most optimal sets right from the beginning), but strategy wise every single trainer has at least an ace up its sleeve: from trick room to hyper offense, with a twig of love to stall and toxic confuse teams, every single archetype has received love and representation from the devs in one way or the other. Sometimes, tho, I feel like the game goes TOO far in making itself accessible that it ends up hurting the game's experience, but more on that later. The game has a lot of QOL updates, so many in fact that I'd advise you to just play the game to experience them: from saving made easy, to instant pc access, to infinite repels, it just makes so many common headaches non problems. The online dex was also cool, but it has since disappeared after the original creator's departure from the project.īleeding is a cool addition for slashing moves, not many hacks dare to add them due to their complexity, but it was a fun surprise while playing. 4 abilities at once? Custom moves and megas? A damage calculator ingame? And it all works mostly flawlessly, without lag, on original hardware? Sign me up for that. If there are, my apologies.Īs I said before, the technical compartment is top notch. I haven't had time to play with them very much, but I really do hope we'll get some custom gen 9 megas since I couldn't find them while playing. Gen 9 is here! Very few hacks have Paldea mons so far, and the spritework is really good (apart from Gholdengo, which kinda looks like a pouting teenager lol). They're not particularly balanced if I had to be honest, but being limited to only one at a time and turning off items made them fair. This hack has probably one of the largest collections of custom megas available, and for the most part, they actually fit with the game's artstyle: kudos to the artists. Now, is Elite Redux MORE FUN than 95% of all hacks ever posted in this subreddit? No. It's a technical marvel, fuelled in great part thanks to the work of Rioluwott, one of, if not, the greatest GBA hackers of this community and let's not forget the contributions of Emerald Exceeded, the hack that paved the way for all future multi-ability shenanigans. With the imminent release of the 2.0 update of Pokémon Elite Redux (thanks Shia for giving me an EA copy!), I decided to give the hack another shot after dropping it the last time I played it in early october.įirst of all, let me say that this hack is better than 95% of all hacks ever posted in this subreddit, and I'm not joking.
