>>50355102This is a difficulty hack of HeartGold addresses the infamous level curve of HeartGold, presents the player with more available Pokémon (each with their own substantial buffs and reworks), adds new events for gym leaders and other characters, and adds encounters for some legendary Pokémon that weren’t in the original game (Mew, Celebi, all three of the weather trio, and both Lati twins; more will be added in future versions). Every other Pokémon, including Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokémon, are available to the player! Currently, the list of unobtainable Pokemon includes: Regirock, Registeel, Regice, Deoxys, Jirachi, Uxie, Mesprit, Azelf, Dialga, Palkia, Heatran, Regigigas, Giratina, Cresselia, Darkrai, Phione, Manaphy, Shaymin, and Arceus.
In 1.7, updated Pokémon base stats, typings, and movepools have been included, as well as a reworking of every trainer in the game! Gym leaders should pose more of a challenge now and Kanto is a proper post-game area complete with levels around or higher than Lance. More of an emphasis has been placed on Johto Pokémon being used by trainers in the game as this is a common complaint of the original games.
Additionally, Challenge Mode is available for people looking for an even more difficult experience. To access this mode, join my Discord server and a separate download will be listed there. The differences between this mode and Normal Mode are: all gym leaders use 6 Pokémon, each with good type coverage, moves and stats, and no EVs are given after defeating any Pokémon in the game.
