AT A GLANCE

What changes?

Shuckleite

A held item in the player's room gives Shuckle a 50% boost to Defence and Special Defence.

Wild Safari encounters

After the Route 29 tutorial, wild encounters use Safari rules: no experience, fleeing Pokémon, and unpredictable catches.

Threedrill

All three starter balls hold Beedrill. Catching is disabled and field moves use items, leaving the three bees to handle Johto and Kanto.

Umbreoff

Umbreon's offensive and defensive stats are swapped, HP trades places with Speed, and Crunch and Howl join its level-up set.
