    The reason Jardino is so fast despite its appearance is because its statline was carried over from the pre-existing Hoenn roster just like the other Fan Pokemon. Jardino is Sceptile, Descomune is Wailord, Ruycantor is Swellow, Kaosune is not Rayquaza but Groudon, and Babos is Skitty of all Pokemon.

      I think the funniest part of this aspect of Quartz is that Trapinch got turned into a split evo. Because its evolutions are Vibrava and Flygon, one of them is just better than the other in every way. They were Dragon/Water and Dragon/Fire, though I don't remember offhand which one was which.

      @@bouncycomix weah, sapphriegon (water/dragon) which was flygon, and rubygon (ground/dragon) which was vibrava, oddly enought the Abra line was turned into split evos but had their stats changed to rival eachother so I don't know what the creator had against ruby.

    Fun fact, it also makes sense for jardino to be as fast as it is because, believe it or not, hippos are really fast both on land and in water.

    Ah, Pokémon Quartz. People tend to bullshit on it nowadays, but I remember playing back in 2010. Of course it had all these bizarre things, but, for that time, it was something else. Also, I'm an appreciator of hacks that totally change the history, region and pokémon, so, Quartz was a pioneer, wanting you or not. Anyway, great job as always!

    Btw, in case you couldn't tell, all fakemon have identical stats to the real pokemon they replace in the dex.

    ok, the fact the stongest legendary's name is "Garotao", or big guy in portuguese seem to mean something about the creator of this hack's nationality... Altho the fact the hack's post had a reversed "!" might mean the guy actually knew spanish... and I can't pick a favorite redesign tbh, the mountain turtle, not Rayquaza and king bird were the coolest, but idk which was the best

    Pokémon Quartz was actually my first ever Pokémon game. My parents didn't want to buy me a GBA or a DS, so I tried emulation, and the first I got to work was this romhack. I have a lot of nostalgia for it, even if I couldn't make it far in the game, both not understanding english and having never played RSE before 😅

    Wouldn't really call some of these "ugly," some of these designs polished could've actually been Pokémon in my opinion. These were rushed to some extent because of the lack of black outlines, but still have some work put into them in terms of concepts so they're not bad. Pokémon Topaz on the other hand would be considered ugly and lazy because of some designs resembling others and others are just kinda sloppy.

    • @RetroNC

      No matter how you want to catch the attention of the viewer what you are saying is just disrespectful of someone's work.
      We've got all our art style, skill level and a certain amount of time we can allow to creation.
      Calling someone's else work "ugliest" sounds condescending and mostly doesn't embrace the sense of community we should carry over.
