Pokémon Maize
A Pokémon Red hack with a new region, Boldor, a new villain team and newer mechanics, colored through Super Game Boy palettes; the beta runs to the sixth badge.
What it is
Pokémon Maize aims for a classic Pokémon adventure with all-new places and characters. You travel the Boldor region, trying to stop Team Quarry, a gang digging up the land for its resources, while a childhood rival keeps getting in your way.
What's new
- 181 Pokémon, with the Steel, Dark and Fairy types added, and the physical/special split.
- New music, items and moves from later games, plus a day/night cycle.
- Swarms, roaming Pokémon, shiny Pokémon and a Battle Factory.
- An optional Nuzlocke difficulty mode.
The latest beta, 3.2, ends in Entropia City after six badges, and saves from older betas don't carry over.
