About the Game
Pokémon Emerald 20 is another new Pokémon fan game which you can play online on our website. It celebrates the 20th anniversary of Pokémon Emerald with new types, modern battle ideas, and small surprises spread throughout the Hoenn region. We know people enjoy Pokémon ROM hacks on our Y9FreeGames website, so we decided to add this one for you to explore.
This version keeps the Gen III battle style without the physical/special split. You get more double battles, new type matchups, and references to Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD. The story stays close to the original Emerald, but many battles feel different because of new strategies and moves.
