Gaia, Unbound, and Emerald Kaizo are all well regarded. Unbound had its story significantly de-edged, IIRC, and people say that after that it's great.

It's pretty grindy, there isn't much to do besides challenge other gym leaders so you're going to be doing that most of the time. Constantly rematching gyms to boost your levels so you can take on the very strong E4. Completing the pokedex is easy though.

I would have less of a problem with it if the colors were actually good. There’s nothing wrong with black people being in it. It’s just the literal shade of colors that looks awful, especially their clothes. Even the player character has terrible colors. I imagine that would be a simple palette change to fix.

It is.
>every trainer after a certain point has 5 or 6 strong pokemon
>the game removes basically every strategy except just mashing super effective moves
>because of this, and the fact there's no level caps, you can just run through the entire game with a few overlevelled pokemon (which will happen, because every trainer has so many pokemon) and that's massively easier than trying to actually engage enemies at their level and intended difficulty
>and of course by the E4 you get infinite rare candies which you can then dump into broken mons
It's basically the problems the actual games have with difficulty, just dialed significantly up. It's not actually hard, at all.
I don't care if a (((pro nuzlocker))) found it fun, I shouldn't need to stack on an additional weird challenge to a game to make it enjoyable.

Inclement Emerald is the best "vanilla" game. Absolutely perfect balance, pokemon distribution and challenge options
Radical Red is poor man's inclement but still the best hack for Kantoooo
Sovereign of the skies is absolutely insane, but its puzzles just feel a bit tooooo long. Also, the pokemon and TM variety available is fucking ass. I'd love to see a hack of that hack once the game gets finished in 2040
Been waiting for Gaia to release v4

Disappointing /vp/, this should always be one of the first games mentioned when recommending fangames. Its quality is really on another level and could pass as an official game if it wasn't for the engine, I don't know why it has slipped under the radar after its initial release.

Also it recently got online play and still has 1 major update left. No better time to play it.

That's the fucking point of a Kaizo game; they're unfair by design. It's not an improvement hack, it's a Kaizo hack.

Oh fuck off. People say this about every hack with a reputation for being hard. Keep that shit over at RadRed.discord where it belongs. Emerald Kaizo is fine.

It's like you didn't read my post. Yes, I get it's unfair. It doesn't do a good job of forcing the player engage with that unfairness.
>People say this about every hack with a reputation for being hard
Inclement Emerald is 'easier' than Kaizo on paper but ends up being a lot more difficult in practice because the game places real restrictions on you.
I would even say Drayano games are harder than Kaizo for a normal playthrough because his hacks encourage you to play how it's intended instead of massively overlevelling everything.
I don't think Emerald Kaizo isn't difficult because "LOL look how good of a player I am" I think it's because the game has awful design.

More like the shit game design interacts in such a way that the player is encouraged to never actually interact with it, which they can do because of how Pokemon is structured.
If Kaizo enforced level caps, didn't give you absurdly strong mons early on, made the maps actually tough to traverse, prevented items in battle, did blatantly unfair things (gauntlets, field effects, 12v6 double battles), maybe enforcing harsh rulesets like permadeath or nuzlocke, if it did stuff like that then that would be the right direction. But SHF is too lazy to actually implement any of that and instead goes for the most braindead methods of trying to stack on difficulty which then don't actually make the game difficult.

Prism's pretty much all I'd want in a hack. The only problem with it is you have a Larvitar starter, which doesn't play along well when it fully evolves due to Sandstorms chipping away at the rest of your team

Vega goes way too far with its gyms to the point where it's a grindfest to even have a chance.

You've not played any of the Kaizo games if you think you're given weak Pokemon. On the contrary nearly everything is edited to have much stronger movesets when first caught. Blue Kaizo is especially terrible with this.
>fight every trainer in the game
Who you'll be boredly mashing A through because you can mow them down after overlevelling.
I guess you're right, there's unfairness, it's just that the game is oriented to making the player the one being unfair.
