Quality of Life features

General

• v1.2.2+: You will start the game with a new key item, Accelerator, in your bag. It functions as a toggle to make the game run at double speed, in a similar vein to the Gen IV 60 FPS patches.
  • Some scenes, such as the title screen, end credits, and Berry Blender mini-game are not affected by the Accelerator.
  • Note: This is known to cause lag spikes in some NPC-heavy areas of the overworld.
• v1.2.0+: Modern HM mode
  • This is togglable in the options menu, in case you prefer Classic mode.
  • Modern mode adds an HM menu to the start menu.
  • To use HM moves in the overworld in Modern mode, you only need the HM and the respective Gym Badge.
    • In Classic mode, you additionally need the field move on one of your Pokémon.
  • If you have an HM move taught by means other than HM, you will need the HM item to use it in the overworld. This was implemented to prevent breaks in story progression, such as skipping S.S. Anne if you have a Pokémon with Cut.
• v1.2.0+: HM moves can be forgotten at any time
• v1.2.0+: You can quickly run from wild battles using the B button, unless the wild Pokémon is Shiny.
