Tilted block faulting, also called rotational block faulting, is a mode of structural evolution in extensional tectonic events, a result of tectonic plates stretching apart. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] When the upper lithospheric crust experiences extensional pressures, the brittle crust fractures, creating detachment faults . [ 3 ]

A graben is a section of crust that has lowered relative to the blocks on either side, which is a result of its bounding faults dipping towards each other. [2] The plural of graben can be either graben or grabens. Graben form low-lying features such as basins and rift valleys. [1] [2] They can be very long relative to their width.
With crustal extension, a series of normal faults which occur in groups, form in close proximity and dipping in opposite directions. [4] As the crust extends it fractures in series of fault planes, some blocks sink down due to gravity, creating long linear valleys or basins also known as grabens, while the blocks remaining up or uplifted produce mountains or ranges, also known as horsts.
Lifted fault-block geology Tilted fault-block formation in the Teton Range. Fault-block mountains often result from rifting, an indicator of extensional tectonics. These can be small or form extensive rift valley systems, such as the East African Rift zone. Death Valley in California is a smaller example.
A highly popular game made in RPG Maker XP that allows players to create their own Pokémon games using assets taken from official games. Essentials has been highlighted for helping to popularize the creation of fangames. [9] The game received a takedown notice from Nintendo in 2018, with its associated Wiki being taken down as well. [31]
Pokémon Essentials was first released in 2007 as an add-on to the RPG Maker XP engine, and contained full tilesets, maps, music and sprites from various 2D Pokémon video games, alongside custom programming that allowed custom Pokémon games to be created with little-to-no programming knowledge.
