Description:
Hello, Welcome back to Pokemoner.com, and I’m Pokemoner. Today, we will play Pokemon Fool’s Gold. It’s a new GBC Hack ROM by Celadonk! All 251 Pokemon in-game redesigned with new type, new movesets. No need trade evolution in-game, shiny rate is 1/1028, a few new areas added.

Well, This game is similar to Pokemon Crystal, but all pokemon redesigned. I think it’s not boring when we play it again! It’s completed in English. And now, Let’s play!

Pokémon Fool’s Gold is a Pokémon Crystal ROM hack where everything is familiar, yet different…

We’ve been working on this as a side project since about January 26, 2019. I know it’s not super impressive compared to a lot of the amazing projects shared here, but as Pokémon fans who don’t really have programming experience but grew up playing Pokémon ROM hacks we wanted to have fun and make one together, and we’re really proud of the end result!

In this game, all of the Pokémon have been reworked… think Alolan/Galarian forms, for all the Pokémon. All 251 Pokémon are available in-game without trading. We’ve reworked all of the trainers and wild encounters to fit as well. In addition, there have been a few visual tweaks, and we’ve added a few new places to explore, too!

The story is all the same as vanilla Pokémon Crystal, so the experience is similar, but with the new Pokémon designs.

FEATURES
All 251 Pokémon redesigned, with new types and movesets to fit

1.2:
NOTES ABOUT ALL CHANGED MOVES:
If you have a Pokemon that is past the level at which they learn a move that it previously would not be able to learn, you will sadly not be able to use that move– there is no Move Reminder and that would probably be very difficult to program. (I’ve done a bit of research on it.)

Removed Moves:
– Crabhammer
– Octazooka
– Bubble
– Cotton Spore
– Poison Sting
– Morning Sun
– Smog
– Bind
– Mega Drain
– Harden
– Withdraw
– Triple Kick
– Mind Reader
It is highly recommended that you remove these moves from any Pokemon that have it (unless you want to have, for example, a Mankey with Earth Power, which maybe you do…)
