1.8 - Balance & Breeding


  • Added more breeding Moves 
  • Most Pokemon belong to multiple egg groups now (see additional info).
  • Reduced hatching cycle of all Pokemon by one magnitude 
    • It takes between 2,5k and 10k steps depending on the Pokemon. Most hatch around 4k)
  • Blue stat page now shows happiness and hidden power power
  • Increased amount of Super Potion healing from 50 to 60 like in later gens.
  • Claire now has different dialogue after you beat the Elite Four.
  • Added propper outer borders to the new Zones (Cerulean Cave, Safari Zone, etc..)

Spawn adjustments

  • Reduced Overall Zubat and Rattata spawn chance slightly
  • Added Slugma and Houndour to Burned Tower
  • Added Gligar to route 46 (2-3%)
  • Increased the 1% spawns of rar mons to 2% or 3% depending on mon and time of day.


Balancing

  • Rebalanced some more Moves and Movesets
    • Some really bad Moves have been adjusted to their later gen versions (for example Waterfall and Wrap).
    • Whirlpool was outclassed in all aspects, so it has been reworked to find more usage 
      • Whirlpool: power 55, hit 95%, pp 15, 50% chance to confuse on hit.
  • Added 3 new Moves to help out specific types (especially Bug) and increase overall Move type availability for early Steel and lategame Dark. Some Moves are close to exitong Moves of later Gens, some are not.
    • Bug Bite uses Hyper Fangs animation, the other two have custom animations.
  • For more information see updated additional info document
  • I'm still unsure if the new Dark/Steel Moves should stay special or be changed to physical.
