PROGRESS: Project Version: Next Level (nl000) - 05/02/2026 - This is a playable pre-release version of the game. It is still in active development, with wild encounter tables currently restricted and full access to all 386 Pokémon (including Kanto and Sevii Islands) not yet implemented.
It is the definitive Generation 3 Hoenn experience, a meticulously crafted ROM hack designed for 100% compatibility with official games and save files. This complete overhaul makes all 386 Pokémon obtainable within Emerald, and packs a staggering array of modern and classic features, from Masuda Method breeding and Shiny Charm functionality to an "Exp. Charm" for boosted EXP. It acts like an expansion pack, enriching the familiar Hoenn journey with an enhanced post-game, legendary respawns, a fully restored e-Reader, and deep customization options, all while maintaining seamless multiplayer and inter-generational transfer.
🛑Features:
➡️100% Compatibility Focus: The game's highest design priority is ensuring full compatibility for multiplayer (Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, LeafGreen, Emerald, Box, Colosseum, XD), inter-generational transfer (PKHeX legal for Gen 4, Poké Transporter for Gen 7), and seamless save file import/export from Pokémon Emerald.
