The main idea behind this rom is to have a game with:
- A vast choice of viable Pokemon (514 Pokemon from all 8 Generations all obtainable before Elite Four)
- A large variety of Pokemon you encounter in opposing trainer teams (approx. 500 Pokemon distributed in trainers teams)
- Moves, abilities, and other gameplay mechanics from generations IV to VIII
- A possibility to obtain all main battle items and to teach all learnable moves (from all generations)
- An early possibility to breed perfect Pokemon (early access to DexNav, Daycare, Destiny Knot, and Everstone)
- An easy and fast way to give Pokemon EVs (EV-based grass)
- A more intelligent AI and an adjusted level curve to make the game more enjoyable (This is not a difficulty hack)
