Description
Pokemon Serene Crystal is a hack that strives to change up the original Crystal, with new gym leaders and Pokémon from newer generations, alongside new original regional forms! There have been several QOL improvements that, alongside the new dex, makes for a fun experience! While the story remains largely unchanged, there have been a few minor changes to make some characters feel more coherent. Apart from that, it’s identical to Crystal’s story.
Also, be sure to try out Pokemon Quetzal.

Bugs
Some NPC sprites may glitch when playing their walking animation. They’ll turn into a jumble of text for
the duration of their walking animation.
In Goldenrod, Mount Mortar (Floor 1 & 2) and Cerulean City, warp points may be incorrect. When
entering or exiting a building, you may be sent to the wrong warp. This shouldn’t cause any soft-locking,
but may be confusing.
If any more glitches are found, please notify me!
