>>50620928>mfw I just realized Pokemon js the only series where there's a fuckhuge romhack scene because strangers all over the world can make better Pokemon games than GFI don't know if I'd say that. A lot of romhacks have their own problems like overly complicated and cryptic route/dungeon design and poor balance.
Last night I defeated the postgame final boss in a romhack called Pokemon Grape and that's probably the most miserable battle I've played in the series. All of his pokemon broke the level 100 cap and his final mon was a level 120 OC legendary that's Dragon/Light type I believe. And this was all under gen 1 mechanics, I'm talking speed crit Outrages, Blast Burns that don't need to recharge if it KOs, and a beefy Special stat providing great special defense. A Moonblast from my level 100 Mewtwo which used Amnesia barely even dented it. The only strategy I came up with was tricking it into using Outrage and switching in a Steel type, which is still a 2 hit KO. I only won because of a lucky Freeze.
Still a great game though. I'm just saying that a romhack at its worst is way more bad than whatever Gamefreak is capable of.
