I’ve been playing a ROM hack of Pokemon Emerald called Pokemon Emerald Rogue, and it’s been a blast. Every run is a new opportunity to use Pokemon you’d normally never use, and every fainted Pokemon hurts as once their health is depleted, they’re gone for good (mostly). Items and Pokemon are reset every time you lose, but you also get money to buy items to bring into new runs and also the opportunity to catch a new “starter” Pokemon. It entirely changes the way you play the game and there’s a ton of choices on how to progress. A new version is currently in the works which’ll make it even better. The trainers are also no pushovers and have well-built competitve teams unlike the main series, so it’s not a total snoozefest. Highly recommend.
And if you don’t read every bit of those 27 links and make a detailed response to each and every point they make, then I’ll smugly dismiss everything you say regardless of its validity because clearly you’re not here for REAL discussion. Oh, and throw in a few personal attacks and/or memes for good measure.
