Pokémon: Giratina Strikes Back is a rom hack of Pokemon Ruby. Started back in 2011, it has an interesting story with the villains trying to call forth Giratina to wreak some havoc in the world.
Features

- All evolution stones can be purchased at the large mart in DRALLIA TOWN (where second gym is located).
- Swapped eeveelutions' quick attack with their same type moves (Vaporeon now learns watergun at level 23 and quick attack at 16, etc).
- All POKéMON that evolved by trade evolve by MOONSTONE now.
- 66 (well drawn :P) fakemon.
- 11 gyms.
- Run indoors.
- New regions.
- Fancy new tiles.
- Fancy new story with twists and turns along the way.
- Rock smash does 60 damage now, so it isn't completely useless.

And so your adventure begins!

The Elite 4 has levels ranging from lv65 to lv75.
Make sure your bag has room for an item before you check the trash can in Luwick Town, if you have no room you will miss out on the Leftovers.
Screenshots
Known issues
- Final event runs early on previous patches, newest patch fixes this issue.
- GHOST's minisprite is glitchy. It seems to mess up many other minisprites if I fix it.
- The messed up tiles in MUERTON CITY are not a glitch, you can "fix" them yourself after you have the 8th gym badge.
- Cities are black when looking at the worldmap anywhere other than the fly map.
- Sometimes when you find an item in a trash can, a person nearby will disappear for a second. I have no idea why this happens.
- DITTO won't register in the Pokédex after you catch it for some reason.
