Oh man I am so excited you played this! I was one of the few beta testers for this game and I help mod the discord for Seaglass. Thank you so much for trying out the game! I love all of your videos! They definitely help get through the work day.
@ChaosInColour be warned. When I fought Greta, her Heracross Terrastilized and that isn't supposed to happen. Don't know if the other Brains are like that too
There are many emerald with a twist hacks out there. Things I appreciate: Hard Mode, Soft Level Caps, TMs purchaseable for additional uses, DexNav, the best Pokedex I have seen, HMs being usable without taking a moveslot, new type combos, and stat buffs Not the best romhack I've played, but it had a lot of the QoL improvements that make Radical Red fun
as someone who doesn't really like the artstyle of gen 1/2, i have to admit, this has a very very charming artstyle and the battle scenes are especially super nice looking
It's not easy to find an emerald rom hacks that isn't just the same game "but harder" So finding one, let alone this "remastered" de-mastered game, is quite the gem.
13:27 im not sure how to explain it but that torkoal has the most gen 2 sprite energy ever. It made me look up if the pokemon was actually introduced in gen 2 or 3
Can we get hidden abilitiy ? Is there a way to change ability or is it random ? Also the in game cheat mons isn't really cool lmao. Spheal, Aipom, Applin, Tinkatink.
I’m currently playing through it and I’m enjoying it so far. The graphics and features are so good. This gives me the vibe of what Emerald would look like if it was on the GBC
Small detail but you can definitely catch as many pokemon as you want to unlock items like the one from professor elm, you just have to box them or immediately release them and can only use your real encounters lol
@@BorisTheGoose92 I don’t know the history exactly so you may be right but I don’t even think a situation like this would apply in any of the original creator of nuzlocke’s runs. They were on vanilla games and more casual compared to the super hardcore nuzlockes we do now haha so I would actually argue that not allowing yourself to do it would be adding your own stipulation like a hardcore+ nuzlocke lol. Doesn’t really matter at the end of the day but I don’t see why anyone would be against it or not do it if they wanted the item haha, same way if your encounters happened to not give you any Pokemon that learn a necessary hm you obviously don’t have to reset, you can catch an hm slave to progress and just not be allowed to use it in battle. Infinite fusion had a quest to restore the lighthouse by catching like 5 Voltorb and putting them at the top. The quest rewards were godlike, light ball for Pikachu fusions, volt switch tm and something else. I don’t see catching the voltorb and placing them in the lighthouse as making my own rule or anything I just see it as doing what very clearly makes sense to do haha
This is really a beautiful game and I'm very grateful somebody has made something like this. I have immediately downloaded it and nudged all my friends who enjoy the rom hacks to promote and play this is much as they can
Using gen 2 sprites in a gen 3 rom hack is so smart, i wish i thought of it, it lets you get the beutiful gen 2 arstyle but also gives you the flexability to change the colors and gives your way more space and ram to work with
@@saffron97 no they don't, at least not in the most well known-challenges. Example: in FRLG the Eevee is in the same city as the game corner, you can only get one of them
Love how you make every romhack you play seem like the best thing ever ❤ but this one.. omg I need to play it! The graphics look so good!! Love the content zwiggo, keep up the great work man 😊❤
Responding to title: It really is, and thank you for sharing! Been playing Seaglass since V1.0 release and it really is the best for multiple reasons :)
I've always loved more the Pokémon Yellow sprites and Gen 2 sprites in general than the new ones, maybe it's nostalgia or whatever but I really go back to Pokémon Yellow a lot only for the sprites
I mean, two things against that, one, some rulesets count static encounters as separate and this could be considered a static encounter, also, Nuzlocks are at their core a way to help people seeking challenge still find fun in the more simple pokemon series so if thats what he wanted to do to have fun with it then thats his choice
I am super enamored by this! Im currently doing an Emerald Extreme Randomizer Nuzlocke but once I'm done, I'm gonna try this one out for sure! I love he old time graphics, reminds me of when I got Yellow back in '99 lol
Just played it yesterday and it's really fun to play, normally I stop playing gba roms because i got tired of playing the same storyline and region but this is really different!
You know, without the white lines we wouldn't have even half the definition in the wonderful sprite work in this rom. It helps make everything really pop and I love it!
I think the Blue Orb for Groudon/Red Orb for Kyogre is correct- while it doesnt match their skin color, Groudon's energy is blue while Kyogre's energy is red. Look at them on the Ruby/Sapphire title screens.
There was a kid at school that I think had a crush on me. I traded him a tentacool for his _BULBASAUR_ and the tentacool didn't listen to him but he played through the whole game with it.
I was skeptical of using gen II assets for a gen III game. I actually really love gen III for it's unique style, but I was surprised by how good this looks. It benefits well from graphics and features introduced in gen III, and it compliments well while being true to the gen II style. Gonna put this on my list to try later
Loved Seaglass Emerald. It's a quite simple hack, yet great one and straight up fun game. Giving us DexNav is already insta 10/10 addition and my Blaziken getting Trop Kick for coverage + boost from Athletic.
Just for a heads up to new people playing this that may not want it, theres a soft level cap on by default that can be turned off by going to the Main Characters home and talking to the GameCube.
Saw two things in my playthrough that you didn't mention and/or notice. 2nd floor of Devon Corp sells Z crystals and Slateport there is a teleport to pacifidlog town for early game

I’m reaching out to see if anyone would be up for this weird challenge! In Gen 1, you can catch Pokémon via fishing in Elite four Lorelei’s room. (Magikarp, Poliwag, and Goldeen). This was due to an oversight. Can you beat the Elite 4 using them? This is the framework, you create the rest!
I want more room hacks in these graphics.
Yeah I’m personally excited for “Pokémon kitchen”
@@bbrookingz2087 yeah me too. But Pokemon Bathroom looks promising.

I'd love my room decorated like this, just got to learn how to hack my room
@@Moopadoopies when you figure it out make a youtube tutorial
I wish roms had an option for the music to be at 1/2 - 1/4 speed so we could enjoy it while grinding levels
That's a pretty great idea honestly I don't know why I never thought of that and why nobody has implemented it in a romhack
@AGuyCalledStu Hopefully more creators see/hear about this so we can potentially see it in future roms.
Could maybe mute the GBA emulator and just play your favourite Pokemon mix on RUclips?
@@OmmNomNomNomTom it's not the same
@@AGuyCalledStu because playing at higher speeds is a thing for emulators and changing the music speed is a thing for the roms themselves maybe?
Gen 2 sprites just makes everything look so good. Treecko line, Blaziken and Gliscor Sprite look so cool.
the only good thing about gen 2 are the sprites
@@talfriedman1265cope
@@talfriedman1265 nah as flawed as they are in many aspects gen 2 games are enjoyable
I think it's fine, I'm just not crazy about graphics or texture swaps, I prefer content over looks, still cool, just not my thing.
@@aggerktmI agree, it's a little unfair to judge stuff from the Gameboy Era by modern standards.
If you access the PC in your room there's actually a shiny charm! From the very beginning.
not to mention getting exp share in the begining too which makes grinding levels soo much easier!
Oh man I am so excited you played this! I was one of the few beta testers for this game and I help mod the discord for Seaglass. Thank you so much for trying out the game! I love all of your videos! They definitely help get through the work day.
just got to the battle frontier! the style and the game itself was so fun, loved being surprised by the new typings haha

This is amazing man!!
Man how to get Alakazam, Dusknoir and other Pokemon that need to be traded to evolve?
@@villamormylene3727 item called Linking Cord. Give to by Lanette, found is weather institute and bought in Sootopolis
The evil teams use the wrong orbs because the old man most likely gave them the wrong orb because he knew that the legend would not obey them
Such a cool concept for gen 3! Love the sprites and the overall graphics! Need to play this next 🙌🏼🤩
There's a gen 2 rom hack were you play as lances son and your starter is larvatar.....can't remember that name but it's awesome
Pokémon Prism. That is an amazing rom hack.
Pokémon Prism which is the sequel to Pokémon Brown (gen I romhack)
I recently finished Prism, it's a great time!
Is Pokémon Prism that ROM hack that lets you basically catch a fakemon that's themed around the glitches in those gens?
Bro I saw this rom yesterday and downloaded it with a friend to play at school, its nice to see you playing it as well!!
Where did you download it from and is it for mobile or desktop??
@@whateverscrub7008Pokeharbor
Tbf I don't think Maxie or Archie knew what color Groudon and Kyorge were before walking them up
Maybe the one associated with the sea is red

Gen 2 sprites are basically: COMFY MODE ACTIVATED!
Looks wonderful! Thank you for sharing. Also my favourite sprite is probably dusclops :) it looks so mindless and haunting.
On my second play through! It’s great, I recommend to future players to check out the special cheats, you can start with some pretty cool Pokémon!
Can we get hidden abilitiy ? Is there a way to change ability or is it random ?

5:47 But you've already caught a Castform in Rustboro
There's wishing well in Rustboro where you can throw in a Wishing Star item and receive a random Pokémon, kind of a gacha mechanic
@@Calyylac Thd point is that since this is a Hardcore Nuzlocke, he shouldn't have 2 pokemon from the same location (Rustboro)
Scripted or static encounters tend to void that rule. Fossils are considered static encounters.
@@saffron97 yes but the location will be Rustboro still, right?
@@saffron97 no they don't, at least not in the most well known-challenges.
Example: in FRLG the Eevee is in the same city as the game corner, you can only get one of them
4:40 "the most useless thing ever - castform" My poor heart 💔 you are right but I love the fluffy cloud
the batyle backgrounds are stunning!
this is my favorite rom hack, ive been waiting for this video mannn
Love how you make every romhack you play seem like the best thing ever ❤ but this one.. omg I need to play it! The graphics look so good!! Love the content zwiggo, keep up the great work man 😊❤
This was inevitable but this is a phenomenal hack
Responding to title: It really is, and thank you for sharing! Been playing Seaglass since V1.0 release and it really is the best for multiple reasons :)

Love a football reference with my Pokémon
I've always loved more the Pokémon Yellow sprites and Gen 2 sprites in general than the new ones, maybe it's nostalgia or whatever but I really go back to Pokémon Yellow a lot only for the sprites
Surely the wishing well counts as one encounter? Ya cant just go back in a hardcore nuzlocke

Latios and Banette are tied for my favorite new sprites. They both look fantastic and have great new poses!

Bros my favorite creator and these Pokémon rom hacks are so good bro I hope you never stop creating
I think the Blue Orb for Groudon/Red Orb for Kyogre is correct- while it doesnt match their skin color, Groudon's energy is blue while Kyogre's energy is red. Look at them on the Ruby/Sapphire title screens.
This sprite work is absolutely gorgeous
Personally id love to see a Nintendo DS version of Emrald... or at least a rom
Reminds me of another GBC hack, Pokemon Black and White 3. Great visuals on this one as well
Ok, Scuba safari is the coolest thing i've ever heard of in a pokemon game
How come you don't do a challenge where you start with pokemon who won't obey throughout the whole game only with pokemon who won't obey
There was a kid at school that I think had a crush on me. I traded him a tentacool for his _BULBASAUR_ and the tentacool didn't listen to him but he played through the whole game with it.
Gen 2 sprites have a unique charm that sets them apart from other generations. The Treecko line, Blaziken, and Gliscor are prime examples of this
