Hey everyone! As the title says, beat Renegade Platinum for the first time and had a blast doing it. I played the Classic version and also used the Following Platinum patch, and it was so much fun. I'll definitely recommend this over vanilla Platinum for most adult players who don't mind fair difficulty, because you get so much more in return. Option to have all starters, ability to acquire all Pokémon in a single playthrough without trade or events, cheaper Ultra balls, basically the copy book Drayano style Pokémon game. I feel this is the most 'complete' version of Platinum you can play today, even more so on an Emulator.

Definitely not a Nuzlocke run and I used healing items like a vanilla playthrough but I still enjoyed building a competitive kind of team lol. Of course this was the final moveset for the E4, I scrubbed them of HMs before I went in.
Have any of you beat it? Share your teams!
