(please disregard how long the playthrough took i just kinda suck at focusing on stuff sometimes. also i played volt white 2 redux but that's not on backloggd)

Yeah, it's a very good ROM hack of one of my favorite games. It's a very different experience from the base game; even on Normal Mode (that's how I played it), you need to plan for several fights throughout the game so you don't get your ass kicked. Thankfully, there are many ways to go about this thanks to the sheer variety of Pokemon available (You'll be able to get most of the 649 Gen 1-5 Pokemon before the E4). Also, many of those Pokemon have some pretty interesting changes/buffs, such as Flygon becoming a Bug/Dragon-type pseudo-legend and Fan Rotom getting the ability Speed Boost instead of the redundant Levitate. I highly recommend this to any Pokemon fan looking for a fun challenge.

Also, although I used several different Pokemon throughout the playthrough, I'm going to list my hall of fame team here (I'll probably do this for any other Pokemon games I log too):
- The Rot (Shiny Samurott, lv. 77): Surf, Shell Smash, Close Combat, Ice Beam
- The Drill (Excadrill, lv. 77): Rock Climb, Earthquake, Brick Break, Smart Strike
- The Goth (Gothitelle, lv. 77): Calm Mind, Dark Pulse, Psychic, Thunderbolt
- The Tom (Shiny Fan Rotom, lv. 77): Nasty Plot, Thunderbolt, Air Slash, Stored Power
- The Gon (Porygon2, lv. 77): Tri Attack, Nasty Plot, Recover, Ice Beam
- The Tan (Darmanitan, lv. 77): Lunge, Strength, Flame Wheel, Flare Blitz
