>>45778434Late to the party, but I've been trying to find a basic improvement game for a gen 2 or 3 game, only big necessity for me is Phys/Spec split. Here's how that's going:
>Game has absolutely way more changes than you want or need such as:>Entire national dex through gen 8 in every fucking hack anymore.>Overly increased difficulty>Weird as fuck stat or type changesOR
>Game is absolutely perfect, only good changes>No Phys/Spec split>Doesn't make pokemon useless without the split usable by changing their stats to align with the lack of splitThen of course there's the fact that every rom-hacker makes "balance" decisions while high on crack these days. Examples:
>Pic related was a gen 3 hack with no P/S split because "the game was built and balanced around the lack of physical special split". Proceeded to boost Pokemon's attacking stats they couldn't use because their STABs are based on the other attacking stat across the fucking board.>Pokemon Super Crystal made changes to moves as seen fit.>Made bite the only physical dark move with every goddamn dark type except Houndoom being physical still without boosting bite's base power>Claimed making crunch physical would be too overpowered against psychic types>Made weird as fuck types changes like Grass/Dark Tangela, Poison/Dragon Arbok and Normal/Dark Dunsparce>Radical Red straight up nerfs Pokemon rather than just buffing the weak ones
