About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Clocked is a ROM hack built in 24 hours, and the whole thing is centered around one thing: a completely original Fakémon dex dropped into Emerald.
The game itself stays close to vanilla — same structure, same progression — but the Pokémon you encounter in the wild and in trainer battles are all custom-designed. It gives Emerald a genuinely fresh identity without gutting what made it work.
On the mechanical side, the Physical/Special split and Fairy typing are in, and moves have been updated to their Gen 9 versions. Abilities are mostly left alone. It's an interesting mix of old and new.
Given it was made in a day, don't go in expecting tight balance or heavy polish — it's more of a creative experiment than a refined product. But for what it is, that's kind of the point.
Key Features
- Custom Fakemon Pokédex: A full roster of original Fakemon replaces or supplements standard encounters, each with unique stats, typings, and designs.
- 24-Hour Challenge Development: The entire hack was created within a single day, making it a fast, experimental project with a clear creative focus.
- Physical/Special Split: Adds the modern split system into Emerald, improving battle mechanics and move usage.
- Fairy Type Inclusion: Introduces the Fairy type, expanding type matchups and adding modern balance elements.
- Gen 9 Move Updates: Moves are updated to their latest modern versions, even though abilities remain mostly unchanged.
- Level-Up Evolution System: All Fakemon evolve purely by leveling up—no stones, trading, or special requirements needed.
- High Shiny Rate (1%): Dramatically increased shiny odds make it easier to encounter and collect shiny Fakemon.
- Minimal Core Game Changes: Aside from Fakemon and mechanics updates, the base Emerald experience remains largely untouched.
- Integrated Fakemon Encounters: Fakemon appear naturally in both wild encounters and trainer battles across Hoenn.
Known Bugs & Issues
- No official bug list is provided.
- Due to the 24-hour development constraint, the hack may have balance issues or rough edges.
- Some Fakemon designs, stats, or encounters may feel inconsistent.
- Polish and refinement are limited compared to longer-developed ROM hacks.
- Additional undocumented issues may exist.
