One of Drayano’s Earliest Miracles
Pokémon Blaze Black and Volt White are two of Drayano’s earliest paired ROM hack projects. They are enhancement hacks meant to enrich the already masterful experience of the original games. They have all 649 Pokémon that were around at the time of Gen 5 and have edited team rosters and story events.
Below, readers can find a list of features.
Features and Aspects
- As aforementioned, the hack allows players to catch all 649 Pokémon in some way or another.
- Every single trainer in the game has had their Pokémon edited, fitting a new level curve and increasing the difficulty overall. The level curve takes full advantage of the new experience system in Black and White.
- A vast number of Pokémon have had certain statistics about them edited, including experience rate, typing, base stats, and abilities. A lot of Pokémon have been given their Dream World abilities as an option, where applicable and/or useful.
- Pokémon have also had additions to their movesets, including additions or alterations.
- There has also been editing of many evolutions, generally involving those Pokémon who generally had to be traded to be evolved.
- Items found in the field have been changed considerably, to include TMs, evolution items and fossils previously only found post-League. The items have been adjusted in such a way that makes it convenient for the game’s progress.
- It isn’t just trainers and wild Pokémon who have had their levels changed; event Pokémon such as Reshiram and Zekrom have also had their levels changed, ensuring that they don’t become useless due to the sharp increase in levels.
- All five in-game trades have also been edited, giving new possibilities for teams.
- A small number of attacks have also been changed to make them more useful, generally in terms of power (and rarely, type).
This is an abridged version of all the information found on the Project Pokémon thread and post Drayano made in 2017. This is surely an experience akin to a new game + found in games like Persona 5 or the Challenge Mode in Black and White 2.
How to Install
Similar to Sacred Gold and Storm Silver, people need an emulator to play this ROM hack. They can do this on their laptops or any handheld devices. For computers, players can use DesMume. On iPhones and other devices, they can use the Delta emulator.

Conclusion
This is all the information behind downloading and installing Pokémon Blaze Black and Volt White. These hacks happened to come before Drayano’s other well-known DS ROM hacks. So, it’s amazing to see how far he’s come with projects like Renegade Platinum. Have fun with this Unova adventure, trainers.
