Hack of: Pokemon Fire Red

Information about the hack: The Great Pokemon War has ended the badge system. In the war your father, a gym leader, is killed. His only pokemon to survive the war was his pikachu (who is now your best friend and only pokemon). You wake up one day to find Team Rocket stealing your pikachu! You receive a pokemon from Professor Oak in hopes of tracking down Team Rocket and saving Pikachu!

Your hacking skills: good with mapping, sprites, basic is scripting

What help or skill you're looking for: help with scripting mostly, but will be happy for help with anything

Additional information: This game is meant to be more about the journey. It is intended to give a nice journey through amazing and some familiar lands (I have integrated things from Zelda, Game of Thrones, life, etc.) with minor story-line or purpose. This game will have no badge system and no elite four. Instead the trainer will be forced to battle significantly harder trainers (for the region/city) in order to receive clues/items that allow you to proceed in the game. although I have pretty much already planned the story-line and map, I an open to change this to include other fandoms any group members may want.

[Mr. Dopémon]

Hack name: Dopémon

Hack of: Fire Red

Information about the hack: I'll keep it short since I don't want to give much away. This is not a traditional Pokémon game, which is why I call it Dopémon. You get to explore a new world full of obscure creatures called Dopémon, uncover the mysteries of shady individuals and local legends, and take on challenges that will alter history.

Finished percentage: ~0.1% of actual game content and ~10% of the story worked out.

Your hacking skills: I know how to do it all myself, however, I'm not a very talented artist.

What help or skill you're looking for: I'm looking for someone to help with Dopémon sprites. I can make decent front sprites, but I'm not very satisfied with the quality of my back sprites. Basically I just need someone who can make my sprites look better or, if I just can't get it right, make a back sprite to go with the front.

Whoever contributes will be given proper credit in the game and will also qualify to be placed in the game as one of the final bosses in the "final" dungeon with any, name, team, and dialogue they want. Or you could request another form of homage and I will try to work it in.

PM or request my other contact info.
