Description
This is the result of a side project where I reworked and expanded FireRed to complete the Pokédex, level up to level 90+, and have access to most of the game mechanics and items from the Generation 3 games. A secondary goal was to preserve Gen 3 gameplay, as I wanted the physical copies to be able to interact with the main series Pokémon games with minimal issues.
