Difficulties

Standard: Play the game like a typical Fire Red playthrough. Boss battles will be easier and held items are virtually non existant on their teams

Targetted for people who want a casual playthrough or who don't consider themselves to be knowledgable in Pokemon.

Hard: Introduces dynamic levelling for certain boss fights so that they will always be on par with your team. Boss battles will have an optimal nature set for their monsters, and half their team will have held items. A monsters ability will be randomly chosen

Targetted for people who are experienced with Pokemon and wants a challenging experience

Brutal: The same as hard, except all monsters in boss battles will hold competitive items and their abilities will be preset. They will also be EV trained (if EV's are enabled)
