A new Pokémon Sun and Moon mod called Pokémon Nova Sun and Umbra Moon was designed to give fans a more challenging Pokémon experience. Battles in this mod are tougher thanks to a combination of high levels, a more intense difficulty curve and an AI that uses actual competitive strategies. The trailer for the mod is as follows:
Created by Dio Vento, Nova Sun and Umbra Moon introduces a number of tweaks, such as:
- Shops have better items
- NPCs have more Pokémon with items, improved movesets, if not a full 6 monster team. “Every trainer in the game has been edited, and the level curve expects use of the Experience Share,” Vento writes.
- A perfect Ditto is readily available to the player for breeding
- Eggs hatch faster
- Wider variety of wild Pokémon, all of which can hold items / are not locked to versions or time of day
- Easier methods to evolve
- Totems use new strategies, and are beefed up
- Areas are optimized for EV training
- More random encounters that can SOS
