| Fantastic! | aleckermit | 2020-02-09 | Version 05.04.2019 |
Currently it's easy to say this is the definitive version of this game. The only thing I wish the author would change is the 1% encounter rates of some of the non-legendary Pokemon as they are just too low (starters for example). It would also be nice if Red's (final boss's) Pokemon levels could match the level of the highest level Pokemon in your party instead of being 100. Grinding a team of 3-6 Pokemon to level 100 to beat the final boss is a little unreasonable. | |||
| Great but | Hee-Ho | 2019-12-01 | Version 05.04.2019 |
I love all the hack really is perfect but you can made an optional patch in which the difficulty increases but change the theme all the hack is beautiful the 3 Legendary Birds are in the game i love it and the celebi event!! Thanks is the best Rom hack of pokemon Crystal next to Pokemon Crystal Clear. | |||

I highly recommend this hack if you are interested in a definitive play through of this classic. I have had many suggest another popular hack for this classic game (clear) but personally I find it to alter the game into something completely different and well, I don't like that. If you are like me and want a true pure single player experience, I highly recommend this mod. | |||
| Perfect indeed | Luckycharms82 | 2019-06-13 | Version 05.04.2019 |
The best rom I have played to date. All pokemon appear organically in the world (as it should be). Items needed to evolve certain pokemon are readily available. It was a pleasure catching and training pokemon like mew, celebi, and the legendary birds in generation II. I highly recommend this rom and would not want to play pokemon any other way. | |||
| Fantastic Hack, just one minor change | Vardnar | 2019-05-02 | Version 05.04.2019 |
The definitive way to play crystal in 2019. Great balance, tons of pokemon, the right amount of challenge. If you wanna relive gen 2 with every single pokemon this is the way to do it. New areas are well done, although there are a few graphical glitches in the cerulean cave. The only thing I would change is the encounter rates. 1% is just frustrating. 5-10% is rare enough. I don't think anyone wants to run around for 1-3 hours waiting for the pokemon you want to show up. That stuff is annoying enough in the mainline games. Other than that, this is my go to version of crystal nowadays. Thanks for all the hardwork you guys put into this! | |||
| Almost perfect | JoeltCo | 2019-03-10 | Version 01.03.2019 |
Everything is great. Graphics got a little sloppy in some added parts, like mewtwos cave entrance. | |||
| Very Solid | generalkenobi051 | 2019-03-03 | Version 01.03.2019 |
It "just works". All changes are neatly documented in the readme, all the changes are balanced and logical, no glitches that I have noticed after ~20 hours. Everything seems to be working great. Not sure how it could be improved other than adding optional patches for special / physical split, new ev system, but those are pretty major changes compared to normal crystal so not really in the spirit of this hack. 10/10 would recommend. | |||
| Turns out to be Emu Edition but better. | Chronosplit | 2019-02-21 | Version 2.0 |
The dissassembly is a powerful thing, with so much stuff formerly off-limits being completely doable now. This is only a taste of that, highly recommended. The only thing I could maybe see added here would be unique menu icons for your pokes like some others are doing. Still, this is absolutely awesome. But that's okay, because you can put those in yourself. The source is right over here! https://github.com/Superegz/Pokemon-Perfect-Crystal | |||
| Great game... I have some suggestions about the implementations | TruthWayLight | 2018-08-20 | Version Complete |
I enjoyed the game. I wanted to play it again just to capture the inaccessible Pokémon from the original cartridge game. I thought I could capture the Legendary Birds before obtaining all 16 Gym Badges. I wanted a worthy/strong flying Pokémon in my team that's why I never trained a flying type causing to have a lvl 14 Pidgey just to get the job done xD. With this said. In my imagination based on the 2nd Pokémon Movie Articuno, Zapdos & Moltres could/should be on the Wirl Islands in different spots than Lugia. They could be Level 40 like the Legendrary Beasts. Had fun :) Hope that you can change it and I would play it again! | |||
| Great hack but few minor flaws | Jormungandr | 2018-06-08 | Version Complete |
This hack makes for a great playthrough of Crystal and fixes a lot of the game's original issues while also finding ways for you to collect all 251 Pokemon. The restoration of Cerulean Cave is a particularly nice addition. The only two nitpicks I could find were the low encounter rates for certain added-in Pokemon. 1% is just too low and makes catching the various starters too tedious. 5% would have still had that rare factor, without making the process overly drawn-out. The other thing that goes hand-in-hand with this is the secret location business for the three legendary birds and Mew. There should have been an option somewhere in the readme to spoil this information for those who didn't want the mystery. The other nitpick is the trip at the finish line that is the adjustment of Red's Pokemon's levels. This is a real shame too, since the rest of the adjusted levels make sense and make for a much better level curve than the original game. But even these levels can't compensate for a team of level 100s at the end, so your only options are grinding up levels (the very thing this hack was supposed to help mitigate) or waging a war of attrition with restorative items, which isn't much fun either. Of course, there's no real reason to beat Red, since everything is unlocked by that point, but it is a big letdown at the end of an otherwise great hack and an improved way to play through Crystal. | |||
| Great hack! | ShadowOne333 | 2018-02-01 | Version 2.0 |
Almost everything featured in this hack guarantees another replay of Crystal to add to the quality value of the overall game. Offers a good challenge that doesn't go hardcore just for the sake of being hard, focusing on the difficulty seen in HGSS, all the 251 Pokes available, uncensored sprites, bugfixes, reusable TMs, rematches with Gym leaders. What can I say? The hack is absolutely a wonder and worth another full playthrough of Crystal! | |||
