This Rom Hack Makes Pokemon Emerald Look GORGEOUS! (Pokemon Emerald Seaglass)

[@danashton5265]

10:46 No Pokemon were ruined due to 3d animations; they were ruined due to POOR 3d animations. Pokemon Colosseum had excellent animations and the Pokemon and their moves looked great.

@@danashton5265 agreed they did 3d animation great in those games

[@danashton5265]

@@JustJoules Indeed. Both Pokemon Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness had GREAT animations. And they were made 20 years ago!!! It's simply a matter of putting some effort into it.

I dont like the white outlines because they makes the pokemon look less alive and more like stickers.

[@jer1776]

Not a fan of the white outlines

[@MysteryStew5977]

I like them. They're definitely up to opinion but it stylizes the game in a way that there wasn't quite enough screen room for on the gbc

[@Dmichoacan]

Me neither, but it's something I'm willing to overlook with all the other stuff.

[@CosmicMusic2k]

Same, huge turn off.

[@Jiedster]

As a person who grown up during the gbc era, I also prefer black outline over the white outline. It's not ugly per se, but yeah personal opinion.

[@SkyfighterZX]

I had this idea many years ago, unfortunatly i lacked the knowledge of how to edit many of the in game graphics, all i did was edit the main tileset of most overworld maps, and stopped there, i also wanted to edit the music which i was never able to, but honestly? seeing this, im glad i failed because i was just using the graphics from Gold Silver Crystal, and this one has a lot of costum tilesets that are just incredible, the dev made a much better job that i would ever be able to

Emerald is my favorite game in the Pokemon series and before anybody says it was probably your first one my first one was Pokemon Red in 98 and even I didn't understand why the champion was a water-type trainer when the 8th gym leader was also water

[@MysteryStew5977]

Because you chose a fire type Pokemon. The champion always takes the opposite type of your starter in those games. Not only that, but his entire team changes accordingly for that battle.

Brawly is By far the hardest gym in the game. That Heracross has Bulk Up, Knock Off, Bullet seed, Arm Thrust. AND holds a Sitrus Berry. Its like you either Dustox or loose. I had multiple challenge runs ended by that stupid Beetle. You have go out of your way to get a Dustox whatever you use. And then Dustox simply OWNS that guy cause mothbro has UNAWARE.

[@Nimbus.Y.]

I usually use a fearow with drill peck and pray I outspeed to kill the hellish beetle

[@DJFoxy-TheKitsune]

I usually just use a beautifly with gust to end that thing

[@ronnieketchum1241]

@@DJFoxy-TheKitsune beautifly doesn't have enough damage to OHKO that and doesn't have bulk to live 2 Knock Offs. Pidgeotto is a good option. Because it's pure flying type and higher bulk. If you're not doing Nuzlockes, then any special attacking Flying move + Kadabra should work. (Kadabra is the only thing you get at level 19 that's faster than Beetle)

[@DJFoxy-TheKitsune]

@@ronnieketchum1241 i know there are better options but the thing is.. i do like Beautifly even with all their issues.

[@BrutusMyChild]

You guys keep mentioning that new Pokémon rom hacks include every Pokémon without realizing that the rom hacking community uses the same hacked base which includes that as one of its many features. In other words, this just another aesthetic hack.

Yeah, gen 2 had a better art style than gen 3. I like how colors look so much more vibrant, while in the gen 3 games everything looked so much more washed out

[@corvidcosmo]

They fixed that problem somewhat in Emerald, but I think they were washed out as a way to make them pop out more on the non-lit screens of the gba.

[@Otachitaki]

Nope, gbc games don't look like that, it's thanks to modern screens that this game looks vibrant 😂

[@Dylb0]

Gen 3 had brilliantly drawn sprites plus a gentle and beautiful use of colour- by far the prettiest of all the games. None of those insane oversaturated clashing colours like in some of the following generations. You sound like the kind of person to take a picture and edit the saturation to 200% lol

[@swampert564]

I would take Steven over Wallace any day. Steven is my favorite champ in the series, Wallace is a middling at best one (though I do like him as an eighth leader). I love Gen 3 (RSE but not FRLG) but I actually prefer Ruby/Sapphire over Emerald. I know that Emerald has more but I don't really like the majority of the added stuff.

[@johnscott5226]

You can't be serious that you didn't like the battle frontier. The battle frontier was a lot of fun in Pokemon Emerald

[@swampert564]

@@johnscott5226 I don't especially. I loathe the Battle Tower specifically and most of the other facilities weren't very fun either. I did like a couple of them and the whole place generally more than the Platinum/HGSS version. I do like the Frontier Brains though. Emerald is like Crystal for me, perfectly solid but the additions aren't enough to really tilt the scales. I don't find either to be in the Yellow category where they are largely just better and improve the aesthetic enough to be notable or the Platinum category where the base version is utterly eclipsed. I don't really enjoy the majority of the post-game facilities across the series. I find nearly all of them to be far more tedious than fun, the Pokemon World Tournament from Black2/White2 is probably the only one that I have only positive feelings towards. As far as the other changes to Emerald are concerned, in theory I like having both teams have a base to go through but in practice I don't actually like the new one for Magma at all. Juan is basically a waste of a Gym Leader, being far too similar to Wallace in both team and personality. Wallace is a solid enough champ but I like Steven as champ far more. The slightly changed teams for Gym Leaders and Elite 4 are fine but mostly unremarkable (except having Tate and Liza have more than just Solrock and Lunatone). The gym rematches are nice but take too long to get up to speed. The animations at the start of battle are cute but inconsequential. There's nothing really wrong with Emerald but it didn't tweak enough to justify its price tag for me looking back.
