About Pokemon Crooked Crystal
Absurd rewritten NPC dialogue and a more involved Team Rocket plot give Pokémon Crooked Crystal a deliberately strange personality. Based Wex created this completed English GBC hack from Pokémon Crystal, marked Final. All 251 Pokémon are available, including added stories for Generation 1 Legendary Pokémon and a GS Ball Celebi event. Rare species appear earlier in more varied routes, caves, and water, while trade evolutions use Stones or level-up methods. The level curve and major Trainer battles are tougher, and rematches are unlimited for the Elite Four and most Gym Leaders. HMs become Key Items, TMs are reusable, and a Pocket PC makes storage accessible anywhere.
