Description:
Hello, Welcome back to Ducumon Website and I’m Pokemoner. Today, we will play Pokemon Emerald Horizons by BrandonXL. It’s a Modern Hack ROM with over 20 New Features with difficulty and more…

If you try to find a good game and not tricky, you can play this game. If Pokemon Radical Red is 10 of difficulty, this game is 6. Anyway, Let’s play if you want!

Pokémon has always been at the forefront of my hobbies. When I was younger, I loved crafting teams for different Gym Leaders, Elite Four members, and really any Trainer that could be designated as a “boss battle.” The idea of creating a game of my own was never really a thing until I played games like Pokémon Unbound (skeli, ghoul), Radical Red (soupercell), and Inclement Emerald (BuffelSalt). These hacks are among what I consider the best Pokémon experiences. My love for these games centers around a few commonalities: these games all feature a diversity in Pokémon you can obtain, these games are all on a sophisticated, modern battle engine, and – most importantly – they all offer a considerable degree of challenge, further showcased in their brilliant boss battles. The concept of “boss battles” never really stopped appealing to me, and I knew that after playing these games that I wanted to create my own game as well. Given the vast amount of resources selflessly created by this community (in particular, RHH, DizzyEgg, and PRET), I set out to create a game with a few key principles in mind:

Difficult, but fair. On a scale of 1-10, with vanilla being a 1 and Radical Red being a 10, I would say this game sits at a 6.
Feature alignment with modern entries in the series
Streamlining the player experience

Specifically related to point three, while I do find enjoyment in competitive battling, I could never really find enjoyment in worrying about EV training, maxing out IVs, or catching a Pokémon with the optimal nature. Similarly, the need to grind tirelessly for experience is something I doubt the average player would enjoy.
The project was designed so that the player can quickly achieve what they want to do from a teambuilding perspective while still holding them accountable with an enhanced difficulty.
To be frank, I wanted to make the type of Hoenn experience that I would be satisfied playing. While the game mostly follows the vanilla Emerald storyline, you’ll find new Trainers to battle and new things to do!
In consideration of the above, I am proud to share with the community Emerald Horizons, my Emerald difficulty hack.

Features
Many of the features below are either inherent in the RHH’s pokeemerald-expansion branch or possible due to the tireless work of the contributors in the Simple Modifications Directory (credited at the bottom of the post)!
The key features of this game include:

Difficulty Related: Set Mode, Level Caps, and Disabled Battle Bag
Most Gen 1-8 Pokémon are obtainable, including Hisuian forms
Modern Battle Engine, with Fairy-Type, Mega Evolution, Updated Moves, and Physical/Special Split
Loads of optional boss battles, with 8 Kanto Gym Leaders, 8 Johto Gym Leaders, and a few miscellaneous bosses who reward valuable items
Exp. All
Bosses and mid/late game Trainers scale to or relative to your strength, so grinding/overleveling isn’t a factor
Updated move animations, courtesy of Skeli and ghoulslash
No EVs/IVs/Natures factored into stats
75 TMs, with about 50% vanilla TMs and 50% custom TMs
Ghoulslash’s DexNav (12 unique land/5 unique surf/5 unique fishing encounters)
PSF’s Quest Menu UI, with 30 Side Quests to Complete
Buffel’s Poké Vial implementation
Ghoul’s Item Description Headers
Badge-Based Poké Marts
BW Repel System

Premier Ball Bonuses
No poison damage in the overworld

Before You Ask
Hidden Abilities are obtained either via DexNav or using an Ability Patch, which comes after a certain amount of badges
While you’ll see a Nature in the Summary Screen, I promise you it is not calculated into your overall stats!
Some movesets have been adjusted accordingly. For example, Tyranitar can relearn Dragon Dance. This is to avoid the need to grind out egg moves.
As a caveat to the above, it is important to note that not all egg moves were added to learnsets.
Certain Pokémon received “buffs” or “nerfs” in their movesets/learnsets, but nothing major has been changed.
If you don’t know how to evolve it, chances are you just need a Linking Cord.
To Mega Evolve, hit the Start button before selecting a move.
There is no way to turn off Exp. All, as this ensures your team scales in accordance with the game’s difficulty.

This game is a GBA Hack ROM. It’s Completed.
