About Pokemon Little Emerald
Hard level caps, selectable difficulty, and generation-nine battle mechanics reshape Pokémon Little Emerald's Emerald adventure. Purkat's completed English GBA hack has version 1.2 and begins with Snivy, Scorbunny, or Squirtle. It adds optional EV gain, mini-boss rewards, a BP shop, follower Pokémon, and partner Pokémon for many bosses. Deep Woods and Desert Oasis are custom maps, while several boss battles move or change within the existing story.
