Pokemon Lazy Green is a GBA ROM Hack by Senhor Mankey based on Pokemon Fire Red in English. It was last updated on December 29, 2024, and is now available to download.

Description

Want to play FireRed/LeafGreen without the hassle of cheats, trading between games to complete your Pokédex, or struggling to catch elusive Pokémon like Chansey in the Safari Zone? Looking to take on a Nuzlocke challenge without the grind of constant leveling or tracking your levels after every few battles?

Try Pokémon Lazy Green—an enhanced version of FireRed/LeafGreen with thoughtful updates for a smoother, more enjoyable gaming experience!

Features

• Gain 1 to 3 levels per battle, making grinding faster and more efficient.
• You can change the level cap to the lowest mon Pokemon from the remaining bosses. Just talk to the NPC in Route 2 near Pewter City
• Trade evolutions are removed; you can use the Linking Cord from the Celadon Department Store.
• All Starters Available: Charmander is on Route 24, Bulbasaur in Cerulean City, and Squirtle in Vermilion City.
• The stats screen now shows each Pokémon’s IVs.
• EVs are disabled in battles by default. Speak with an NPC in Pallet Town to re-enable them, and once you reach Celadon, you have full EV control with cheaper vitamins and EV-reducing berries.
• Optional Badge Boost: Defaulted off, but can be activated by an NPC in Pewter City to enable badge-based stat boosts.
• Most items are significantly cheaper, and Pay Day now rewards 500 times the normal payout.
• Hidden Power, Return, and Frustration are at max power by default. Hidden Power’s type displays in the summary menu and Meowth’s Pickup ability can only yield Hidden Power TMs (also purchasable in Celadon).
• Full Regional Dex Access: All version-exclusive Pokémon are catchable in Lazy Green. Refer to the documentation for route changes.
• Infinite Eevees in Celadon: You can have a team full of Vaporeons!
• Safari Zone Overhaul: Increased encounter odds for rare Pokémon, with areas now interconnected.
• All TMs for Sale: TMs in Celadon’s store unlock progressively as you advance.
• An NPC allows you to reuse move tutors anytime.
• Cheaper Game Corner: Coins and prizes are more affordable, making rare Pokémon like Pinsir and Scyther easier to obtain.
• Shiny chance boosted to 5%.
• An NPC in Celadon enables cross-gen evolutions temporarily, allowing access to Pokémon like Espeon and Crobat before the Elite Four.
• A Route 22 NPC grants IV-maxing items after you defeat their randomized team.
• For added difficulty, an NPC on Route 2 offers a Challenge Mode tailored just for you!

To-Do List

• Intro Animation: I’m learning how to change the intro animation—ideally, I’d like to feature Slowbro or Snorlax instead of Charizard.
• Event Tickets: Aurora and Mystic Tickets are available post-game, but I haven’t yet figured out how to trigger their events.
• Egg Moves: Working on a way to make egg moves available.
• Post-Game Updates: Possible major post-game changes may include adding more Gen 2 Pokémon, as FireRed/LeafGreen only has a limited selection. For now, only Pokémon available in vanilla FireRed/LeafGreen appear in the post-game of Lazy Green.

Changelog – What’s New!

v1.1.5

• Post-game monotype bug solved

v1.1.12

v1.1.0

If you have suggestions for v2.0, I’d love to hear them (drop them on the game’s PokeCommunity thread). Just bear in mind that I’m still a beginner with decomps, so changes may take some time.
