PROGRESS: Project Version 1.0 (Completed) - 31/12/2025 - This is a complete game. The full Unova story is finished and playable from start to finish, concluding after the final battle with Ghetsis. This game does not have post-game content.

It is a complete ROM hack that transforms the Unova region into a strategic, all-doubles adventure. Every battle is a double battle, and the game has been rebalanced from the ground up to emphasize creative synergies between Pokémon. Discover new strategies with over 70 altered moves and a completely reworked Unovan Pokédex, where Pokémon have new stats, abilities (like Contrary Serperior), and roles. With diversified seasonal encounters that offer different team-building opportunities each month, this is the definitive way to experience Pokémon Black with a fresh, strategic twist.

🛑Features:

➡️All-Doubles Adventure: Every single battle in the game, from wild encounters to the final boss, is a Double Battle.

➡️Strategy & Synergy Focused: The entire game is rebalanced from the ground up to emphasize creative strategies and powerful synergies between your two Pokémon.

➡️70+ Altered Moves: Over 70 existing moves have been rebalanced and altered to be more strategic and viable in a doubles format.

➡️Rebalanced Unovan Pokédex: Every non-legendary Unovan Pokémon has been reworked with altered base stats, movesets, and abilities to give them diverse new roles and improve their viability.

➡️Diversified Seasonal Encounters: Wild Pokémon encounters change based on the in-game season (which changes monthly), offering different team-building opportunities and high replayability.

➡️Complete, Focused Experience: The game is fully playable from start to finish, with the story concluding after the final battle with Ghetsis (no post-game).

➡️Vanilla+ Difficulty: The game is harder and more strategic than the original Pokémon Black but is not a brutal "difficulty hack," rewarding preparation and planning over grinding.

➡️Heart Scale Move Tutoring: Heart Scales, which can be won in battle, are a crucial currency used to teach your Pokémon powerful and strategic moves.

➡️Helpful Item NPCs: Trainers can gift you held items specifically designed to help you prepare for upcoming Gym Leader battles.

➡️Exclusively Unovan Dex: The game focuses entirely on the diverse roster of Pokémon native to the Unova region.

➡️Extensive Documentation: The game is supported by a comprehensive spreadsheet that details all changes to Pokémon, moves, abilities, and encounters.
