FEATURES

There are a number of different types of updates that have been included so far. This list is not necessarily complete, but it gives a good list and will be updated semi-regularly

BUGFIXES

These are notable bugs from original Red that have been fixed

  • Frozen Pokémon can thaw naturally, or if they use a move that thaws the user as part of its effect

  • Fixed type strength/weakness issues
  • Fixed-Damage moves no longer ignore type immunity
  • Swift can no longer hit during the "invulnerable" turn of an attack
  • HP Draining moves don't work on substitutes
  • Not necessarily a bug, but Old Rod can catch more than just Magikarp
  • No NPCs making impossible claims about Pokémon evolving
  • Fixed the bug where Item Evolutions can happen accidentally by level-up
  • Changed Struggle to be ???-Type so nothing can be immune to it
