This fangame/romhack whatever this is was great. Had a lot of good things going for it. The custom sprites were fantastic, so many were so beautiful however not all pokemon have that same level of care. Usually the lower end evolutions outside of those really liked pokemon such as the starters, first route bird, legendaries and eeveelutions to name a few. Sandshrew also had like fantastic sprite after fantastic sprite. I'm not complaining, the little guy deserves the world and more but it just seemed odd how consistent those were lol. Those that don't have the custom sprites have ones ripped right from the online fusion generator. Even the order you choose the fusion materials changes how it'll look and its stats which is too intricate for me to go in here. Even fusing two of the same pokemon together can give you a totally new sprite like Gastly and Tyranitar, which the latter I was able to get as soon as I got to Fuscia city so thank you creator for letting me use my favorite pokemon before end/post game.

The game has 3 difficulty options regular pokemon difficulty(easy), normal and hard. I played on baby easy cuz I actually like the permanent exp all and I hate EV training. You can get that exp all by itself as well on the other difficulties and turn it off if you want. The game also lets you save in multiple save slots. Its story isn't entirely just the gen 1 story, you're still following team rocket but their goals are means are different cuz fusions and whatnot. The game uses a somewhat gen 4 look. You'll be going to new areas that just didn't exist and the maps in general are redone. I found a new exit in rock tunnel and found a legend of zelda reference with ofc yielded a honedge.

Its post game was also fun, if a bit hectic with how much it has you jump around. You go to johto 3 years before the events of gen 2. Its not the johto you remember, and you're even allowed to go there as early as beating team rocket in saffron.

Tms are infinite use, hms can be deleted without needing the move deleter and there's items you can get that just outright replace the HMs. I didn't need to keep trash like rock smash and flash at the ready after getting those items so make sure you explore and do the sidequests. The post game superboss was also done so well. How you get there, the events that occur. I'm not gonna say anymore but if you play this, you would be remiss to not go all the way through to that. I can't remember the last post game that was this worthwhile.

If you like pokemon and its romhacks, this will test your type matchup, moveset knowledge and ability to discern fused names. This romhack is probably second only to Crystal Clear to me.
