These hacks expand Pokémon availability throughout Johto, Kanto, and additional areas, altering wild encounter tables, routes, and in-game distribution to enrich gameplay and balance. The document provides organized location lists, encounter methods, version differences, notable early-game availability, and recommendations for efficient team building and completion.
