About Pokemon Emerald 20

Aural and Astral types, frequent double battles, and Generation III VGC-style play make Pokémon Emerald 20 a battle-first Emerald project. EmceeMikey created this English v1.0 GBA hack, which makes Dragon type physical and draws mechanics and references from Pokémon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness. Aural covers sound and other wave-based moves, while Astral is a rare space-themed type. New battle formats and strategic challenges are present in this early playable build, with more event content planned.

What's in it

  • Adds Aural, a sound- and wave-based special type, and Astral, a rare space-themed special type.
  • Dragon type is physical.
  • Focuses heavily on double battles and Generation III VGC-style gameplay.
  • Includes references and mechanics inspired by Pokémon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness.
  • Adds new battle formats and strategic challenges.
  • This is an early playable build with more event content planned.
