Pokemon Crystal Kaizo+ Christmas Patch ROM

Pokemon Crystal Kaizo+ Christmas Patch is a GBC ROM Hack by EmiBeryl based on Pokemon Crystal. It was last updated on December 14, 2024.

Description

The Crystal Kaizo+ Christmas Patch (ck+xp) is a difficult, highly customized 4-badge experience based on Crystal Kaizo+ (which itself is based on Crystal Kaizo (which itself is based on Crystal)). The game was designed to be played with a hardcore nuzlocke ruleset, though the game does not enforce this and it can be played in a variety of ways. It contains a plethora of quality-of-life features and a custom map based on Crystal Kaizo+’s Johto but in the winter.

The map is full of charm and overworld puzzles to challenge you within the winter spirit. The base mechanics remain unchanged from Crystal Kaizo+. Fight for fight, the game’s 57 trainers are harder, and significantly more interesting than Crystal Kaizo+. It is worth noting that, despite the name of the hack, it is a self contained unique game, and not an update to Crystal Kaizo+.
