This Pokémon Rom hack features little characters from a franchise known as Touhou. In this game, they are called Boneka and the same rules apply to that of Pokémon Emerald. However, there are minor differences like the addition of the Kanto region and the original "Java" region. With its insane difficulty, you'll spend hours grinding yourself to death on Boneka that have all new types and move sets (all 17 types are the same and some moves have been slightly modified, but nothing too bad of a change).

Each Boneka has a different "form" which changes every evolution. Either is be C (Chibi) or E(Ex) or even L(Last Word), they all vary and all have different aspects for you to find out.

I won't go too far in-depth of how difficult the game is, but I can at least say that once you hit the Java region; GOOD LUCK. You will find that you will be using your restore items or Pokémon centers A LOT if you're not too careful. If for whatever reason you want to ask why it's so hard, look up Touhou game play on "Lunatic" difficulty and you will see the comparison.

Now, as for graphics, the sprites are SUPREME. Every sprite is beautifully done and for the designer to sprite 400+ AND their shiny counter-parts, which is about 400 more (re colors aren't that hard, I know, but give him credit for doing it almost 400 times), is just immaculate. I guarantee you will also be in awe when you see these, they are just that good.

Let's talk about the music. Most of the music you will hear will be arrangements of the original Touhou games (For Windows and PC-98). For the most part, they are very well done. However, there is one problem I have. The volume NEEDS to be toned down. As much as I love any touhou theme and arrangements, I shouldn't have to play with the music blaring, prioritizing over the sound effects by twofold. It was nice to hear it, but the necessity of its sheer volume is zero. This is the very reason why I gave the sound a lower score.

Now the reason I put story as 6 is because it's just Emerald + slight add-ons that makes it just a tiny bit different from the actual game. These add-ons are primarily the Java region and Kanto. However, I do not include this into the overall rating only because it's a mod that uses Emerald's plot, just as older Touhoumon games had used FireRed's plot.

Another important piece to note is that a few type match-ups have been changed. One significant one is that Psychic CAN hit Dark, however its Not very effective. A second one I can remember is that Water is no longer super effective against rock. I do not know the reasoning for these changes, however, I won't complain because it does change it up a bit.

Lastly, you will find the starters to be lack-luster in conjunction to their types, however they become MUCH better as you progress. Think of an exponential curve in terms of usefulness. That's the way I saw it anyways.

Overall, one of the best and most difficult Rom hacks. I recommend to anyone who's an Otaku/anime-fan (Yes, I know Touhou isn't an anime. Just putting this disclaimer here so I don't have to hard it '') or just wants to try a random Rom hack with all new "Pokémon" and a large sense of difficulty. And touhou fans; well, touhou fans who have yet to play this Rom hack.

This was a fairly decent review.... However I feel it could have had more depth to it. But this was really nice Keep up the good work!
