    Pokémon Dark Cobalt

    Dark Cobalt was a ROM Hack of Pokémon Firered BPRE in English.

    Living in Coral Town has allowed you to leave a peaceful, and uninteresting life. Days come and go, and you grow older.

    Awe-inspired by natural disasters, you hope someday something exciting would happen to you. Perhaps the arrival of the mysterious boy, Cyan, and you receiving your first ever Pokémon will change your luck?

    As you embark on a journey through the Felith Region, you will encounter many people, both good and bad, and Pokémon. Good luck!​

    Features

    • Sidequests and minigames.
    • Battle interviews. Anne Aniseed and Dan Dandelion are touring Felith, and want to interview you!
    • Varied Poké Mart stock. As you progress, the Marts will get a larger variety of stock!
    • The Hoenn region.

  • This is looking very good, Haroun. I'm eager to see more about this, as the screenshots aren't exactly 'showing off', except for the "great tiles" part. It's also great to see the existence of fakemon. I wish you the best with this hack, buddy!

  • However, the part that has the Brandon sprite looks like it's just an extension to a Pokemon Center. Which I don't think is what it you meant. (Unless it was, then good job and excuse me for being stupid. :P)
    ^ Pwned. It's actually a pokecenter basement, and it's awesome. By the way, Ice, can you give us more information about the new region itself?

    I know, and I'm planning on showing off some stuff soon. Thanks.

    I have shown some of the tiles. And I hope you mean showing more details will generate more interest, not new tiles (because they're staying FRLG style).

    ^Pwned

    I really like the style of the town picture. However, the part that has the Brandon sprite looks like it's just an extension to a Pokemon Center. Which I don't think is what it you meant. (Unless it was, then good job and excuse me for being stupid. :P)
    Thanks. And yeah, it is an extension to a Pokémon Center. Thanks.

    ^ Pwned. It's actually a pokecenter basement, and it's awesome. By the way, Ice, can you give us more information about the new region itself?
    Haha, thanks. Hm, info on Felith? Surely.

    ...but not now. :D

    Eh, it's just a filler map, so I wouldn't worry too much. Thanks.

    Sweet work Ice, I like it. Honestly, I like the whole element of this, especially how... Vague the story is. It adds to the mystery (which I love). I am hoping to see good things from this (though, one thing. I guess this is just me, but that "desert sand" from RSE doesn't really fit too well with the FR sand at the moment. Only me really, but still, it could look so much better, but... You're choice, I'm happy either way)

    Thanks. Yeah, I actually have removed it, but I haven't changed that screenshot yet.

    All i can say so far is eh. Not saying it's bad or anything, i was more excited to see some of the new pokemon but i guess i'll have to wait for those....Story seems cliche BUT it does leave room for some interesting twist that could make ur hack pretty damn amazing. Good luck bro. I'll stay tuned for updates.

    When they come to be available, I'll show the fakémon. For now, though, they're not being shown. The story isn't what it seems, I can assure you. I've got a lot planned out, so don't you worry. Thanks for the support.

    Thanks. One thing, though - I haven't touched the palettes. At all, haha.
    Thanks.

    Wow, Dark Cobalt is looking pretty good, and someone else besides me is finally using FR tiles. I love the new houses, too. Anyway, good luck!

    Thanks for the interest.

    I plan to insert some Generation IV and V Pokémon into Dark Cobalt, so look forward to seeing some inserted in the very near future.
