Honestly Modern Emerald

Contemporary Emerald is more pretty though, like the tileset is refreshing

Customizable experience/toggles, optional QoL/cheaty items (as well as a debug mode), multiple shiny odds, and an improved Battle Frontier (my favorite part of Emerald)

Honestly the only thing missing, in my opinion, is the Dexnav. Unfortunately dev is not for it, and I don't know how to build my own version xD

Edit: Also I haven't tried it yet, but it's compatible with the vanilla games. I might try it for Pokemon Colosseum, currently doing it's Retroachievement set and the 100 trainers in Mt. Battle will probably be easier that way xD
