Remaking Fire Red inside Emerald

Hello! I've messed around a little with mapping a few years ago but never got into anything serious.

I went back to play my copy of Leaf Green I realized I missed a lot of mechanics from Gen II like the RTC, berries and some of the Gen III stuff like the Battle Frontier and moving sprites.

I'm wondering how difficult it would be to recreate the plot and mechanics/gameplay of Fire Red inside of Emerald and any major obstacles.

I should mention that I'm willing to learn. Coding if I have to. I felt like this project is good because it will give me experience with everything I need to make a mod. The creativity/balance that I'll need for introducing different Pokemon at night and Berry plot placement will be more manageable for a beginner since ill be making minor additions to an already established game.

Thank you for reading and any advice is welcome.

I don't think it would be all that's difficult, or at least any more difficult than any other project. It's an interesting idea, but what would be the purpose other than adding berries and the battle frontier?

Secret bases. It also appears some people have put the Sevii islands into Emerald... I think I'll get around to doing this eventually.

I'm going to start with FR and once I've learned a bit more I'll think about larger projects.

Lol as coincidence would have it, I am hacking Ruby right now. I am trying to put the entire Kanto region into Ruby. I should be finishing up three island tonight if you're curious and want to see it. When / if I finish it, I could even let you use it as a base rom if you want

Here are some difficulties I anticipate if you want to continue your hack, if you are kind of perfectionist:
