  • Pokémon Haunted Version

    Haunted Version is a ROM Hack of Pokémon FireRed in English.

    Important message: I think I'll let this hack rest, it was a good startup, I learned a lot (I'm still learning BTW) but I think I'll move on to a new hack. Not completely leaving the horror-scene behind: it will be a DayZ hack. There's no thread of it yet, but as soon as there is, I'll post the link here.

    The Kanto region as you know it is gone. There is a plague of Ghosts all over Kanto, and suddenly trainers appear to have more knowledge of Pokémon battles. In other words, Ghosts here are the main theme, and battles are more difficult (better AI and coverage, not just a Caterpie). Trying to nuzlocke this game will be a true challenge.
    The storyline is pretty much the same as the normal FireRed, except Team Rocket is now after the mightiest Pokémon ever: ((not yet revealed)).

    For those of you who'll say I lack imagination, this is mere a study, as I am completely new to hacking, and I didn't want to start off too big.

    Features in Haunted Version Beta 1.1
    • Kanto, Johto, Hoenn Pokémon. You will encounter many different Pokémon, not just the Kanto Pokémon.
    • Two new Pokémon added (sprite only). (see screenshot)
    • Physical / Special split.
    • Some stat buffs of normally "not-so-good"mons. (think of Pokémon like Raticate and Arbok)
    • Decapitalisation. (this is only finished up to and including Pewter City, still some errors which are fixed in Beta 1.2)
    • More difficult battles. (as mentioned before, better AI and coverage)
    • It only goes up to and including Pewter City.

    I'd recommend mrdollsteak's rombase as it includes most of your stuff which you've put in the todo list. Also i'm looking forward to this !

    That would be a good idea except I think it's too late since I believe it needs to be patched on a clean rom.

    Thanks for your tip! I think I'll be using it from Beta 1.2 on as it really saves me time. 1.2 will be out even sooner!

    That would be a good idea except I think it's too late since I believe it needs to be patched on a clean rom.

    I just patched it, and I just have to fix some minor bugs now. If I start all over again or code all the moves by myself it would cost more time than fixing those bugs

  • Looks good! A question, will you include MrDollSteak patch? There things are already decapitalized, and it even has the new items and moves!

    Once I have finished all battles up to and including Cerulean City, I'll upload Beta 1.2

    Looking good, you have my support. Love your username, by the way :o

    Great hack, its cool to up the stats of bad pokémons, good luck with the project.

    Thanks for your feedback! I have some bad news tho, the 1.2 beta release will be delayed due to my exams and stuff for school. When that's done I can focus 100% on the hacking again.
    Stay tuned!
