Description
Doubles Firered is an improved version of the game Firered that introduces exciting double battles from the third generation. This enhancement hack preserves all the original game mechanics, providing players with an opportunity to experience the distinctive features of double battles that were introduced in the first generation of Pokemon games.
About Generation 3 Double Battles
Generation 3 doubles battles are distinctive when compared to later generations of double battles. In particular, starting from generation 4, there is a significant mechanical difference that fundamentally changes how doubles battles are played.
One unique feature of Generation 3 doubles battles is that it is the only generation with double battles and no physical special split. Additionally, spread moves like Hyper Voice deal only 50% damage instead of 75% in future generations. However, moves that hit all Pokemon on the field, such as Earthquake and Explosion, have no spread reduction, making them particularly powerful.
Moreover, when a Pokemon faints in generation 3 double battles, another Pokemon is switched into battle immediately, which opens up interesting strategies. For example, if you knock out one of the opponent’s Pokemon, they may switch to another that you can now attack before it gets a chance to attack you. In ideal scenarios, you can even get the legendary four-mon kill in just one turn.
Speed control is also different in generation 3 compared to future generations, as it does not have Trick Room or Tailwind. This makes moves like Icy Wind and weather-setting moves particularly effective. Additionally, Swift Swim and Chlorophyll can be used to achieve a discount Tailwind, which can be quite fun.
Lastly, in generation 3, held berries are consumed at the end of the turn, which means that you can hit a Pokemon twice and kill it before it consumes its Sitrus Berry. In future generations, the Sitrus Berry could be consumed between hits, allowing the Pokemon to survive both hits.
Conclusion
To sum it up, generation 3 double battles are fascinating due to their unique vanilla mechanics. However, there are no hacks available that allow players to explore all of the unique features. This is where Doubles Fire Red comes in.
Doubles Fire Red is designed to provide players with an opportunity to experience the distinctive world of generation 3 doubles within the Kanto region. The hack allows players to choose from all non-legendary Pokemon from generations 1-3 to build their ultimate doubles team. Moreover, all Pokemon have had their level-up move sets adjusted to allow them to learn any generation 3 egg, tutor, or event moves that players might want to add.
Additionally, learnsets have been tweaked to reflect that doubles is the primary game mode instead of singles. This means that trainers also have new teams that create more engaging double battles. Players will encounter powerful boss fights against gym leaders and rivals, and all trainers use the champion AI to ensure more consistent behavior and interesting fights.
