Pokemon Platinum Boost is a ROM hack that improves and enhances the original Pokémon Platinum game. It keeps the original Sinnoh Pokédex with 210 Pokémon but includes many tweaks to make the game more balanced and fun.
In this version, many Pokémon have been improved. Some have new types to make them more interesting and unique. For example, you might see fewer Bug/Flying types and more creative combinations. Pokémon that were weak before are now more useful and exciting to play with.
Moves have also been upgraded, and some moves from newer games have been added. Trade evolutions are now level-up evolutions, so it’s easier to evolve your Pokémon. Even legendaries have been balanced to make them strong but not overpowered.
The game is a bit more challenging than the original. Bosses and gym leaders might have one extra Pokémon, and their teams are more varied. The leveling system has been adjusted so you don’t need to grind as much, making the game smoother to play. If you do decide to grind, it won’t take long.
The difficulty level aims to be around 6-7 out of 10, where 1 is very easy (like Let’s Go) and 10 is extremely hard (like a kaizo hack). The game ensures that all your Pokémon can learn their best moves by the time you reach the last gym leader, Volkner.
Trainers might have extra or evolved Pokémon, and wild Pokémon are at higher levels to help you build your team faster. Held items are introduced gradually, so the game gets harder as you progress. Your rival, Barry, has different teams based on which starter you pick, making each playthrough unique.
