You get a choice of like 18 different playable trainer skins and 80+ different starters
Then you learn that you can have all 6 of your party pokemon following you around on the overworld
Then you got the fact that you encounter pokemon via pokemon walking around in the grass, including visibly distinct shinies.
Oh and it has the full 1000+whatever pokedex so every different route has 20 pokemon walking around so as someone trying a Nuzlocke I'm just standing there struggling to decide which one to take
Oh and also since it's a romhack so I'm playing it on my 3DS
GBA era romhackers are something else
Yeah I'm not built for the Kaizo and Radical Red hacks lol
Hacks where the give gym leaders more than two pokemon and give trainers higher level pokemon is good enough for me
Yeah it was one of the ones with a difficulty setting and I thought to myself "I'm an adult, how hard can Pokémon AI be?" The real kicker was each badge having a level cap.
