Pokemon Azure Platinum (EN/FR) - Expanded Anime Story, Increased Difficulty, QoL Changes and more!

[memory5ty7]

Pokemon Azure Platinum is the project I've been working on for the last year-or-so!
This game makes you rediscover the Sinnoh Region while incorporating elements of the anime series and by making the game harder to give a bigger challenge to the player.
In this new adventure, you play as a Pokémon trainer that has the goal of becoming the Pokemon Master of the Sinnoh Region.
During your adventure, you will meet many friends, rivals and ennemies as well as stronger and rarer Pokemon.

Note: This game is available in English / and in French

STORY CHANGES:

New characters and story-arcs of the Pokemon Diamond and Pearl anime have been added:

• You will meet new characters of the Pokemon Diamond and Pearl anime
• You will participate in new tournaments inspired by those of the anime
• You will meet key characters of the franchise that didn't appear in the original game
• The postgame has been largely expanded and you will be able to participate in Operation AZURE, an Sinnohian equivalent of the Delta Episode, which will lead you to the legendary Pokemon Arceus
• During your adventure, you will be able to catch all 493 Pokémon of the 4 first generations
• Some moves from future generations have been implemented (High Horsepower, Volt Switch, Solar Blade, ...)
• Some moves such as OHKO Moves or status moves have been reworked to make them fairer

BATTLE CHANGES:

Trainer battles have been overhauled to give you a more exciting experience:

• Every trainer possesses a new team with more Pokémon, stronger Pokémon, as well as optimal items and movesets
• Many trainers are now mandatory, you cannot walk past them without fighting them anymore
• New bosses have been added to fill some of the more empty areas of the game
• You cannot use any healing or boosting item during a battle
• Set Mode is mandatory and will make you play on an equal footing with the AI
• A progressive hard Level Cap has been implemented, your Pokemon's levels cannot be higher than those of the next boss
• A Nuzlocke Mode is available, preventing you from healing fainted Pokémon
• Your Pokemon do not gain EVs

The level 100 postgame will make you fight a multitude of overpowered trainers around the Sinnoh Region. Some might even use legendary Pokemon...

OTHER CHANGES:

• You possess a Porta-PC with functionnalities that expand during the story. No need to go back to the Pokecenter to heal and change your team !
• The game has been greatly sped up : the framerate is now uncapped and healthbars scroll way quicker than in the original game
• You can buy an infinite number of Rare Candies so you don't have to grind for hours
• Every TM is unlimited-use
• The need for HM-use has been greatly reduced

KNOWN BUGS:

I've been playing this for quite a bit on TWLM++ and have been enjoying it a lot! I like the idea of a post-game Arceus mission and the increased difficulty very much, and can't wait for the next round of fixes. Keep up the good work!
