Hey this seems like its going to be a great hack, I love how your going to make the gym leaders and elite four more active, you should also add in some key players too fly in and help you out from time to time, such as Steven, May, Blue, Green, Kris (from Crystal) or gold. Idk if double battles will work like with May and stevens from emerald but maybe worth a try? Or maybe you could face off with them at the end, battle frontier style..idk just spit balling ideas to ya. Anyway great hack, I cant wait for it to come out.

PROGRESS UPDATE
I have drafted the following maps:
Pallet, Viridian City, Route 2, Route 22, Pewter City, Route 3, Mount Moon, Route 4, Cerulean, Routes 24 and 25, Route 5, Vermillion, Route 11, Route 9, Route 10, Lavender, Route 8, Fuchsia, Routes 16, 17, 18, Celadon, Route 20, Cinnabar Island
Of these, only a few need minor touches and a few more need finishing touches. I don't think I'll touch Route 1, since I don't really have any idea how to make it better as a first route; same for Saffron, since it's a big city and doesn't need any revision.
None of these maps will be the same as they were in the demo. Speaking of, I wonder if I can't change the thread title? Also considering changing the name of the hack.
I have considered scrapping Kanto altogether to make my own region with Kanto as a frame in anticipation of the surefire RB remakes I believe are coming, which may make this hack less relevant to a refreshing Kanto experience if it ever gets finished.
I have the map progression written out up to Saffron so far, and am working on it in tandem with the maps.
There will be additional maps, but they are meant to supplement the game and not be distractions to fit in the too many Pokemon for one region 403(?) I intend to include in the game. Examples include the 2 woodland maps (Darkwood and Greatwood), Viridian Lake (not sure where to stick it, really) and Viridian Forest North or South Extension - but there will be more. Gyms are also changing locations and stuff. A lot of ideas.
The plot is still nebulous - all that clan crap from the demo is out. No Fire Clans or anything, I don't know why I thought that was a great idea. There's a Great Pokemon War hack out there waiting to be made, but it ain't me. It ain't me. I am working on something about the Bird Trio.
I still have tentative plans to include Johto as post-Kanto content, but that is subject to change; as with any start hack by a new hacker, this project is subject to collapse or years of inactivity due to school and life circumstances. I thought I had quit it for good during the six months of inactivity after I started college, but I'm still on it.
So to recap this update: I'm almost finished mapping to a point where I could script and flag and probably get a Beta up to a certain point. That phase will take about the same time as mapping (2 1/2 months so far over a 6 month period.)
In other words...I'm working on it.
