Quick Overview:

Emerald Azure is a rom hack for Pokémon Emerald. Emerald Azure brings an entirely new story for you to enjoy. There are new locations, NPCs, and gyms. Emerald Azure is also difficulty-focused. The Rom Hack uses the Radical Red dex as a base (all stat changes, abilities, movepools, etc, from the Radical Red dex are present here). The Rom Hack also currently contains 109 variant forms (counting all evolutions), 9 new Eeveelutions, 26 new Mega Evolutions, along with a plethora of custom signature moves for the new variants.

Story Overview
Without spoiling the story... here is a little introduction to what you can expect! I'm being vague with this to avoid my story plans being spoiled since I want the story of the rom to be part of the experience.
All sorts of evil organizations have arrived in Hoenn! Team Rocket, Team Plasma, Team Galactic, and more! A few of these groups have allied with one another to achieve... something! Rumors have risen that this plan has something to do with Darkrai and Cresselia, who have become corrupted and taken on a new form. Oh... and Team Aqua and Magma are involved, of course. Team Skull is also lurking about.


All Features:
- New Story (Currently up to Gym 4) [Rustboro, South Dewford, Dewford, Slateport City gyms]
(The story ends after the Aqua grunt fights in Slateport for now)
  • New Gyms
  • New Locations
  • Difficulty (Like Radical Red)
  • Unique Enemy AI
(The AI is expanded upon Emerald Expansion. The AI can think a few turns in advance to create a tactical line. If there is a combo of moves that can defeat your mon in 2-3 turns, the enemy AI will see that line and will try to get to that state.)
  • Level Cap Progression
  • 109 Variant Pokémon Forms
  • 9 Eeveelutions
  • 26 New Mega Evolutions
  • Radical Red Dex as a base (Buffs & changes)
  • Gen 1-9
  • New Signature Moves
  • New Signature Abilities for variant form Pokémon
  • Static Encounters (Some of which are random)
  • Optional Bosses (with rewards) [Some of them are tricky to find!]
  • EV Allocation from ANYWHERE!
  • Infinite Candy to get your Pokémon to the level cap!
  • Emerald Expansion features (following pokemon, sleep clause, type icons, move effectiveness, etc)
  • Max All IVs, pokeheal, PC access, dex-nav, HM usage without teaching the move, reusable TMs, infinite Repel (Some of these can be accessed via LEFT and RIGHT shoulder buttons)
There's probably more I could add here, but the above points cover the important stuff.
