Parasect in Polished Crystal

Bug / Grass — where to catch it, what it learns, and how it differs from the official games.

Compared with the official games

Stats Attack 95 → 115, Defense 80 → 100 (total 405 → 445)

Compared against present-day official data. The Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived after Pokémon Crystal, so a difference here can belong to the series rather than to this hack.
