Not to mention: * Change the saved game format to store and load all this new data. That aspect alone throws the whole thing into doubt, since you would have to change hardware to support the enlarged save data. The original Red and Blue games already had unusually large amounts of save data for a GB game, enough that emulators at the time of their release did not properly support them, and I'm pretty sure it was well-compressed(within the constraint of guaranteeing a worst-case size). It's unlikely that it would fit after adding additional state to every enemy trainer and species in the game.
