It's called Emerald Resprited. Has a Vanilla version with just the sprite changes, and a different version where all 386 are catchable and trainer rosters are adjusted to match up with each artist's contributions.
Incredibly inconsistent quality of the sprites. Just take a quick scroll through their google doc. Actual artist work right next to obvious child scribbles.
How can someone look at all these different styles, let alone the ones that literally look like they're drawn by a six-year-old, and think, "Yeah, that's fine"?
Not to mention charmander's obvious rip off of Agumon (the Digimon) lol
Oh wow... Squirtle, Ekans, Nidoqueen, Alakazam, Rhyhorn, electrode…
What the hell is going on with Oddish!
Hypno wearing a hi-vis vest, holding a stop sign.
Goddamnit, Hitmonlee is just straight up potato.
Kakuna wearing a tux?
Ekans made me cackle
Especially because there are tons of Roms with very good sprite and also a totally new adventure and all new Mons.
No way this is not a joke. There is a Digimon in there.
And Hatsune Miku (part of farfetch'd)
I can see why the title says stunning cause I am stunned how this is anything but a joke? I could design better sprites and I only draw stick figures ffs
