Upgraded Bag
One of the worst things about the original Emerald is how little bag space it had and how cramped everything felt, so that was a must to improve with Emerald Cross.
- Expanded Pockets: Added pockets for Medicine, Battle Items and Treasures.
- TM Case: Removed the TMs pocket and added a TM Case instead.
- The description shows how many TMs you have unlocked and shows which Pokémon can learn what TM at a glance through a modernized icon UI.
- Unlimited TMs: TMs don't break anymore. The prices of the TMs have been reflected to support this change.
- Expanded pocket size: In addition to having more pockets, you can also carry more items in each pocket.
- Updated Soot Sack: Using the Soot Sack will tell you how much volcanic ash you have collected.
- Bag Sorting: You can sort items by pressing START. There are different sorting schemes depending on the pocket.
- Easier navigation: A pocket icon was added to easily determine which pocket is previous/next.
