I'm subscribed to Pokecommunity on youtube and I just watched the spotlight of the hack and it seems awesome. I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing more progress on this hack and will play it once I get a little bit more free time on my hands.

Playing the beta was really fun, and focusing on Rattata as a starter was really funny, but you can take Eevee or pokemon that you steal from other trainers, It is really funny!!

Feedback:
I would like to suggest editing a little bit of face and the hair color and style for the main EVIL (Hero*), also specific changes for characters as Ronnie and others to come in future.

Suggestion:
If It is possible, can I ask to make a character (me) in your hack, named as Caramelo, with an Umbreon on the team, make a youngster lol

Just checking back in with this game.
I'm wondering will you be changing the tiles sets, I know this another prescriptive of FRLG but still. And what other extras will be in the game. Like Sevii islands or Oange islands for after game.
Traveling to johto at some point?

Haha thanks. I won't be taking character requests out of the blue, but kudos for trying.

Actually I originally planned on having the player character and Ronnie look the exact same as the regular grunts, just to hammer the point home that you're just some other Rocket grunt. Decided against it because it became confusing to tell yourself apart from the others. I don't think I'll be changing the sprites that are already in place, but I do have tentative plans for changing the overworld sprites of your character as you gain in rank.

Rocket Edition will be very much "another perspective of FireRed", and I have no plans of changing any major tilesets or graphic styles-- honestly, I think going out of my way to change the tiles would just be counterproductive. I like the look of the standard tiles a lot more than many of the usual hack tiles anyway.

The story will take place in Kanto only. I'd love to tell you all the little extras I've planned for later in the game, but I'd rather have players see them in action than spoil them in a forum post. If you stick around for them, I hope you'll think they're fun.

Thank you so much! If you haven't checked it out already, I'd highly recommend you play ckret2's Pokémon Toxic Purple-- that's the game that inspired me to make this one. Other than that, there's EarthVisitor's Rocket Revenge, which I never got ahold of, and MrDollSteak's Apollo. I haven't played a lot of newer hacks in a while though, so there may be others.

Now I get your idea of this plot more clearly, I totally support you in this one and I take back what I said about sprites for the grunts, I really hope if I could help but as You see I don't know how to...

Good luck.

Why not add Pokemon center penalties for infamy for stealing too many pokemons. The more pokemons you steal, the more expensive healing services are. Same with stores, %added per point of infamy; But then the higher the infamy, the faster your pokemons grow.

or expand on it that you can only heal in Team Rocket "Safe Houses" lik the daycare or something similar if you try to get healing from nurse joy she battles you instead :)

hey I got a couple questions...how you gonna get other peoples pokemon to obey you without gym badages? I think you have to make missions to steal or bribe, or kill to get some gym badges or the pokmon cant obey... ohhh with the fart joke south of mt moon...you should put a brown ghastly in there some how....maybe if you talk to the guy 4 5 times..... oh and custom sprites be epic..i remember the epic spirte of morowak in lavender town in toxic purple... so hopefully someone on your team can make those. oh and for a couple surprise trainers,,,maybe add the toxic purple guy...who ever made it as a trainer of some kind... and something else no other hacker really tapped into is the orginal world champion of the Gameboy games....use his team and moves as a huge test somehow...people will use ash, but wont use the actual person who is actually the best human player in the world ...idk be interesting...anyways great hack....I hope I live long enough to see it finished :D

Congratulations on winning Hack of the Month! Enjoy your sticky for the month!
Wow, that is cool.

I thought upon release that the game was far too short to even be nominated for something like HotM, but I hardly mind being proven wrong. Thanks so much to everyone who voted!

I have a mild infamy system planned (that you will see in the next beta), but I like my Pokémon Centers free, and I don't see any reason to inconvenience players for the rest of the game for choosing a particular playstyle. I agree that random battles with characters who were good guys in FR is fun, though: you can definitely expect more of that to come.

I promise you will, buddy.

Having Pokémon disobey you is just another random inconvenience that I don't think adds to any meaningful (i.e. non-frustrational) challenge, so I'd like to steer clear of that. My team currently consists of me, myself and I, but I will make sure to push all of us to the brim to make the game look good-- a number of custom sprites are in the making.
Few hacks deserve Hack of the Month as much as this one. Congrats, colonelsalt. Keep it up, man.
Dude, reading this type of stuff is what makes it all worth it.
