The patch for the hack can be downloaded on Alpharad's Discord server.
Tropes:
- Adapted Out:
- Tate and Lisa are absent from the Mossdeep Gym, with Clay taking their place.
- The third of the Elite Four, Glacia, is replaced with Larry.
- The final Elite Four member, Drake, is completely absent from his post. As for who replaces him? A "SUSSY BAKA".
- Artistic License – Geography: Played for laughs. The symbol for the Ohio Type has a silhouette of Texas on it.
- Ascended Glitch: In the original game, a bug stemming from the discrepency between Azurill and Marill's gender ratios resulted in a third of all female Azurill becoming males upon evolving. As a homage to this, this hack classifies the whole evolution line as the Gender type.
- Bizarro Elements: Part of the point. Some types are relatively normal, like Magic or Space, but there are types based on memes, indie games, political parties, negative character traits, and even the concept of Gender. Among other things of course.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: The Tenuously Connected Flavor Text of the move Hype Train, directly addressing Alpharad in his playthrough of the hack:"Jacob wears cat ears if this goes on long enough."
- Department of Redundancy Department: The Type... type.
- The Dividual: Guys-type Pokémon are either made up of multiple creatures that the game treats as a single Pokémon, such as Dugtrio or Falinks, or have multiple heads like Doduo or Girafarig.
- Lethal Joke Character: Wynaut is naturally weak in its stats, with its newfound Baby typing having the potential to make it even worse with the type's weakness to every other type. Keyword "potential", as they also have the Reverse type, inversing the type matchup so that it'll instead resist just about every type in the game, making for a deceptively tanky mon with Counter-Attack moves.
- Logical Weakness: In spite of the madness that is the type chart, along with some "meme-y" types, some of them mostly adhere to logic:
- Since fur and/or cotton is flammable, Fluffy is weak to Fire.
- Stinky is weak to Fire, since pungent odors are naturally extinguished via fire.
- Newborn babies are naturally very frail at birth, so it's to be expected that almost every type with an attacking move is Super Effective against the Baby type. Funnily enough the Right type is four times more effective against Baby type due to the party's view on abortion.
- The DEEZ NUTS type is weak to fighting for obvious reasons.
- The Gun type is resistant to Right-type attacks because right-wing political parties tend to be in favor of pro-gun laws.
- The Gamer type is weak to Grass and Water due to the stereotypical gamer being a Basement-Dweller who never goes outside (or in modern internet parlance, "touches grass") and never showers. This also explains why they're immune to the Stinky type, since they've acclimated to foul odors due to their own poor hygiene.
- Several types associated with things that need air (Fire and Normal being two examples) are, understandably, weak to the Space type.
- Magikarp Power: While the Trope Namer and other examples from the main games are still here, the move Babify also counts as this. It's a very powerful move that gives the target the Baby type, essentially causing them to take more damage from any damaging moves since the type itself is a Joke Character. However, the move can only be learned by most Baby type Pokemons (and not their non-Baby evolutions), and only at level 50. This means you will need to carry a very weak and frail Pokemon in your team in order to get this great move for future battles, or just get a Baby Pokemon later, and quickly increase its level to level 50 using inifinite Rare Candies to learn it.
- Mechanically Unusual Class:
- The Baby type is weak to every offensive type in the game, with it also having a unique quadruple effective weakness from the Right-wing type. The only types that are neutral against it are those without an attacking move, or the Left-wing type.
- The Type type doubles the modifiers of the type effectiveness.
- The Reverse type takes the type-matchup of the Pokémon's offensive and defensive types and reverses it, resulting in stuff like Fire super effective against Water and so on.
- Mythology Gag: Sudowoodo being a Furry-type Pokémon despite it not resembling an animal in any way is a nod to this exchange
Alpharad had with JaidenAnimations about which Pokémon qualify as "furry bait":Jacob: If the Pokémon's anatomy allows it to wear a jacket— like, a hoodie, it's furry bait.
Jaiden: Technically, Sudowoodo can wear a jacket...
Jacob: ...I stand by what I said. - Shout-Out:
- Two Gamer-type moves are named Five Nights and The Bite of 87.
- The SUS type, along with its associated moves in Eject, Vent, Sabotage, and Impostor, is naturally an Among Us reference. Furthermore, the final member of the Elite Four is "SUSSY BAKA", a red Impostor who vents in.
- The OU Type pertains to the Overused tier on Smogon.
- The SANS type, which is used by Shedinja.
- The Smash type exclusively belongs to the Pokémon that Markiplier said "Smash" to in his "Smash or Pass" video.
- The Reverse type icon is designed after the reverse card from Uno.
- Signature Move: Enforced with the Pikachu type. Pikachu type moves can only be used by Pokémon of the same type. Guess which Pokémon has that type...
- Takes One to Kill One: The new Types that are Super Effective against itself are Angy, Friend, Silly, Sharp, Gender, Zoomer, Gamer, Prime, DEEZ NUTZ, Ball, and Sans.
- What's a Henway?: Any Pokémon whose name can be used as a pun trap is given the DEEZ NUTS type, along with the rest of their evolutionary lines.
