About This ROM Hack

Pokémon Super Theta Emerald is a large-scale enhancement of Pokémon Emerald that modernizes gameplay while keeping the core story intact. The hack introduces 650 catchable Pokémon, including all Generation VII Pokémon and special forms like Greninja-Ash. A proper physical/special move split is implemented with icons, alongside over 100 new moves featuring updated animations and effects. Trainers, Gym Leaders, the Elite Four, and the Champion now have updated teams to accommodate the expanded Pokémon roster. Quality-of-life features such as reusable TMs, indoor running shoes, and egg hatching at level 1 make gameplay smoother, while new evolution methods and catch-based experience enhance team-building and progression.
