I'm wondering as to why Retro Red is on the low end of your priority.
And sure. As I have told you before, I am planning to work on two hacks simultaneously. And since you have looked at my help request, you should know one of them is going to be a Gold Team Rocket hack. That one was what I meant by hideouts.
But as for the clubs, I am planning to make a Gold hack of Lance's ascension to championship (I did not mention this in my help request because there are other help requests attempting to recreate Lance's life as well), starting off at Blackthorn City's Dragons Den. I know I will change a couple of things to make it more like RBY (since we meet Lance firstly on RBY) such as removing the menu description, forcing the name to be Lance.. but if I only stick with that, it will pretty much be Gold with a few text changes, different map start, and different backsprite. Although that is a good start for a first hack, I think I should add at least something else if I am to release it in public. So I am going to add either: secret society of dragon trainers, mostly old men of course, that oppose the young Lance rising to become the 8th gym leader (and only later you find out he will go on to the Elite Four), or I might emulate ancient Greece and have each city like a seperate identity, i.e. the Gym Leaders will lead the city and everyone in the city will be, jealous to the Blackthorn dragon trainers' selection to become leaders/or their power over them, resist everytime Lance will come into the city.
But this hack will be Johto only, while I will use the Team Rocket one to recreate Gold Kanto (they removed Viridian Forest but I will add it back, etc.). So it will be kind of like Pokemon Red and Blue, the two will complete each other. There will be similairites between the two, like the secret-society or city-state ('club')-ish opposition. For the Team Rocket hack, I will make every city's Gym Leader the one who leads all the civillians and citizens to oppose Team Rocket, as well as have an active Police Force.
