So I have a really good idea for a rom hack but I don't have the experience or know how to make a rom is there any tutorials I could do or Maybe even a rom hack creator I could Talk to that could maybe help me turn this idea into a hack

Hey man. Long time no see. I reckon that idea of looking at pokemon who get outshined and then transforming them into the new lightbulb is a spectacular idea. I gave up on rom hacking but am hoping to start creating fangames instead. I'll definately take that idea once I can bother to try and make the game.

Thats really clever.

Yeah most designs on fakemon usually are extremely well done. Sometimes I'll come across fakemon designs that'll make me so jealous because I didn't create them first lol. One annoying thing about making fakemon is turning them into sprites since you have to use pictures that are 64x64 frames and 16 colours in gen 3 and it's really difficult to create cool designs without getting rid of small details.

oh hi! Yeah I understand that, fakemon usually don't hold up to official ones. Rather off topic, whenever I start working on my fangame I always end up making fakemon for no good reason other than I find it extremely fun and it takes away from doing any work lol.

sounds fun.

no i haven't seen or heard of one.

First and fourth problem are simple. Second difficult and three also very difficult, and it wouldn't make sense for me to try to explain those.

You can change pokemon by modifying their stats. You can do this via hex editor or using some utilities available. Look for these in Skeetendo Inc. (hax.iimarckus.org).

Evolution methods for pokemon are such that you can easily edit with a hex editor. In order to learn how to for example manage to edit evolution methods of pokemon via hex editor, you could start off by following my rom hacking tutorial videos:

Part 2 hands over all the information you need in order to edit the evolutions and much more. But in order to understand it, you should watch part 1 first.

For pokecrystal disassembly, you should start at by simply reading the README.md here:
https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal

It covers installation guide and documentation (along with wiki which has also plenty of information). Joining #pret discord channel may also be useful.

Takes time, I'm sure you'll be capable of it in due time. Keep your hopes up.

If you feel like it then I think you should. Who knows you may win hack of the year.

Yeah and it's probably the most adaptable since Nds rom hacks use 3d modelling and older games like crystal don't have full colour so it's much more fun to play around with gen 3.

Okay. Ask away whatever you wish to know. I can't promise I have the time to go throughly in detail in every single aspect, but I can probably give you some pointers at least.

Nonetheless, if you are interested in hacking Pokemon G/S/C, you should take time delving into disassembly editing. pokecrystal disassembly editing makes implementing certain things much easier than implementing those same things directly into a rom file using different kinds of utilities.

How far are you with your rom hack

Oh I know it's so frustrating, I'm currently trying to learn about script editing and whilst I've made some progress in learning I've also been stumped on other things

I'm doing really well actually.

Oh hello, how are you

Thanks. I am in love with her :) She's so special to me.

Awww! Hello! Nice shiny charizard avatar :3 he's got like similar colors to mega charizard x^^

Hey, the majority of 200 fakemons is still more than enough for a new region.
All statted out?

That's pretty neat!
