Walkthrough for Pokemon Crystal Clear :
Pokemon are known to speak their name only (or maybe that's just in the anime, not the games–I'm not clear on that). Team Rocket’s Meowth is unique among Pokemon in his ability to speak with humans. If you recall from "Go West Young Meowth" it was not an easy task. Conversely, there are a number of other Pokemon who have spoken human speech with little or no problem. Most of them were mythical or legendary Pokemon, but it’s still no small thing. I won’t count Pokémon who communicate telepathically, like Mewtwo or Lugia, or Pokemon pretending to be human (like Zorua/Zoroark). Obviously, Meowth would fit here, so I’m going to skip right past him, but here are some Pokemon that have been known to speak our language over the years.Gastly (“The Ghost of Maiden's Peak”)Maybe this Gastly was using some ghostly power to communicate through a mix of speech and telepathy, but by all accounts this Gastly was able to speak to Ash, Misty, Brock, and Team Rocket. Though, since this Gastly also made illusions to outwit the trainers, it’s entirely possible that his human speech was an illusion too.Slowking (“The Power of One”)Various Pokedex entries in the games describe Slowking as a Pokemon with “incredible intellect and intuition” so perhaps it’s because of his intellect that the Slowking on Shamouti Island had learned to communicate with humans. That being said, the island seemed pretty desolate, which leaves me with one question: Who did he learn to speak from?Murkrow (Gold/Silver/Crystal This video is a review of the Pokemon Rom Hack Crystal Clear.

Pokemon Crystal Clear is a rom hack of pokemon crystal and includes both the johto and kanto re Pokemon is the highest-grossing media franchise of all time, having amassed $90 billion in revenue since its creation in 1995. Despite this, the games tend to evolve at a glacial pace, rarely making major shifts from one entry to the next. That’s why it’s so exciting that the series’s newest games, Pokemon Sword and Shield, are set to change up Pokémon’s formula in a big way. There’s a new Wild Area kitted out with a rotational camera and online support, the National Dex is no more, and instead of mechanics like Z-moves and Mega Evolutions, pokémon can now be Dynamaxed in stadiums, causing them to grow in size and take on brand-new forms. While these changes are drastic for a slow-moving franchise like Pokémon, they’re not quite as ambitious as those of Crystal Clear, a ROM hack designed by a modder who goes by the name ShockSlayer. Crystal Clear built upon 2000’s Pokémon Crystal in order to prioritize player freedom by implementing a range of new mechanics that drastically improved upon the vanilla game. Late-game species could be encountered almost immediately after starting, trainers could challenge gyms in whatever order they pleased, and even the bothersome “evolve via trade” mechanic was rectified by introducing a brand-new NPC known as the Tradeback Guy.ShockSlayer started modding as a young kid and was primarily focused on hardware and “portablizing stuff,” which is modder lingo for making things portable. He got into programming to supplement that. “CC was originally made as a Christmas present for a community completely outside of romhacking,” he explains. “I’d say it’s my first real software project.” “It’s my first real software project.”ShockSlayer started on Crystal Clear in June 2017 and mostly worked on it alone until its v1.0 release in December that year. He was determined to launch it before Christmas and for it to be fully playable, with as few bugs as possible and all the key features intact. “I basically had to learn how to program as I went, and there was a lot of data that needed to be created,” ShockSlayer tells me. There were 16 datasets for every trainer class, and ShockSlayer entered a substantial amount of that by hand. “I did the gyms first, following the same format that was already in-game,” he says. “The trainers just have species and levels, but the leaders have custom movesets.”That aspect introduces one of the most intriguingComments

2025-04-19Off fast and strong Psychics. Oh and I can’t forget that her Ariados uses String Shot now. Very big difference. I reset since I didn’t want the extra experience.I drop by the Warden’s house and loot his stuff while her granddaughter watches. I get some items and HM Surf. This is useful to reach Cinnabar. Nothing on my team learns Surf so I go to the Safari Zone to catch a water type. On the surface, the Safari Zone experience in Crystal Clear greatly resembles the Safari Zone in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. There is no time limit, you can battle the wild encounters with your pokemon, and you are free to use your own equipment.The one unique difference this Safari Zone has is that it holds the largest variety of pokemon by comparison. It has around thirty plus pokemon. If you want to be that guy and say “The Safari Zone in HeartGold has way more”, my argument is that in this game I do not have to become a bricklayer and place objects around all over the place in a menu every time I want to catch something rare.The safari has its own zones in the corners and middle. Certain pokemon can only be found in their respective zone. Each zone has a station and the ranger inside tells you the rare pokemon you can find in this area. For example some notable ones are the Johto starters, Larvitar, Skarmory, Pinsir and Phaphy. Some regular pokemon include
