PROGRESS: Classic+ Version (05/05/2026) - A comprehensive open-world expansion of Emerald that integrates Kanto, Johto, and the Sevii Isles into a single, interconnected experience.

This Hack was born from the feeling that R/S/E lacked the sense of continuity and the interconnected world of G/S/C. It provides an Open World impression to the original Emerald gameplay by making all new areas, including a new port city south of Littleroot Town, explorable from the very first moment. This "Classic+" version is a refined update that addresses game-breaking bugs while adding new subquests and content, ensuring players can catch all 386 Pokémon in their natural habitats without needing the Post Game.

🛑Features:

➡️Three New Regions: Kanto, Johto, and the Sevii Isles are all explorable from the first minute of gameplay.

➡️Following Pokémon: Your Pokémon will faithfully follow you everywhere as you explore this large world.

➡️Gotta Catch 'Em All: All 386 Pokémon included up to Generation III can now be caught in their natural habitats.

➡️Many Surprises: New elements and story beats have been added to the base game to keep the experience interesting.

➡️Classic+ Improvements: Various bug fixes and minor soundtrack improvements to ensure a smooth, complete playthrough.

➡️Updated Evolutions: Temporary stone-based evolution fixes for trade-reliant Pokémon (e.g., Onix + Sun Stone for Steelix, Scyther + Sun Stone for Scizor).

➡️Graphic Enhancements: New tilesets for Ecruteak City and Sevii Isles, plus the addition of side stairs and visual tweaks.

➡️Populated World: Trainers are scattered across the continent to make the world feel more alive.

➡️Groudon Subquest: A specific capture quest for Groudon located in the Devon Underground.

➡️Kyogre Subquest: A specific quest for Kyogre set in Southern Isle, which now features its own town.

➡️New Gym: An additional gym has been added to the game world.

➡️Latios and Latias Subquest: A new dedicated subquest for capturing the legendary Eon duo.

➡️Rival Story Arc: A definitive conclusion to the story arc involving your Rival.

➡️Mewtwo Alternative: A Jirachi-related alternative method to capture Mewtwo if you miss his specific subquest.
