Pokemon Yellow Legacy is a Hack of Pokemon by TheSmithPlays that much like Legacy Crystal aims to balance out Yellow in a number of ways.
Pokemon movepools have been expanded, several moves have been modified to either be more widely available, be less shitty or in a few cases (Slam is now an 80 power Dragon type attack and Dragon is Physical, Night Shade is a 60 power Ghost type attack and Ghost is Special) have had their properties changed entirely. Several Pokemon have also had their stats modified (Pikachu's overall BST is comparable to a Starter Pokemon's 2nd form, Hitmonchan's Atk and Special have been swapped so he can use the Elemental Punches better) and you can complete the entire Pokedex in game, among others.
Much like Crystal Legacy the Bosses have had their rosters improved with expanded teams, better movesets, an "improved AI" and Gyms 4-6 will have their Leader Pokemon's levels scale depending on which one you fight first, 2nd then third. You'll see what I mean. Also like Crystal Legacy this tries to play close to base Yellow so no Dark/Steel/Fairy, original RBY Special Stat, or altered TMs. However Ghost has been changed so that it's actually good against Psychic, Poison is SE against Bug, Bug is neutral to Poison and Ice is not very effective against Fire.
In this video I'll be covering all of the Rival Battles, Gym Leaders and other special trainers that I come across and as always I'll be doing these fights in Shift Mode with Items.
