Pokémon: Kanto Complete
Base ROM: FireRed BPR 1.0
Language: English
Creator: PurpleSpectre
Intro
This is the result of a side-project with the goal of remaking and expanding FireRed to make it possible to complete the Pokédex, progress to level 90+, and have access to most game mechanics and items from generation 3 games. A secondary goal of preserving gen 3 gameplay was important, as I wanted physical copies to be able to interact with main-line Pokémon games with minimal issues.
Changes from FireRed
Vanilla game aspects retained

Physical cartridge made using imablisy's instructions
