FireRed hack: Pokémon: Dark Cobalt Version

This thread is up for archival purposes. If you want to see the most recent edition of Pokémon Cobalt, click me.

Pokémon Dark Cobalt

Dark Cobalt was a ROM Hack of Pokémon Firered BPRE in English.

Living in Coral Town has allowed you to leave a peaceful, and uninteresting life. Days come and go, and you grow older.

Awe-inspired by natural disasters, you hope someday something exciting would happen to you. Perhaps the arrival of the mysterious boy, Cyan, and you receiving your first ever Pokémon will change your luck?

As you embark on a journey through the Felith Region, you will encounter many people, both good and bad, and Pokémon. Good luck!​

Features

  • Sidequests and minigames.
  • Battle interviews. Anne Aniseed and Dan Dandelion are touring Felith, and want to interview you!
  • Varied Poké Mart stock. As you progress, the Marts will get a larger variety of stock!
  • The Hoenn region.

This is looking very good, Haroun. I'm eager to see more about this, as the screenshots aren't exactly 'showing off', except for the "great tiles" part. It's also great to see the existence of fakemon. I wish you the best with this hack, buddy!
 
first to post
u should probably show some more details, like the tiles
it could generate more intrest
 
However, the part that has the Brandon sprite looks like it's just an extension to a Pokemon Center. Which I don't think is what it you meant. (Unless it was, then good job and excuse me for being stupid. :P)
^ Pwned. It's actually a pokecenter basement, and it's awesome. By the way, Ice, can you give us more information about the new region itself?
 
Woah,looking good there ice..hahax,
Can't really tell anything from the story,since it does not really says much,maybe provide more story?..lol,
for screenshots,they look neat and nice,i like the way they are,looks nice but the trees on the pokecenter basement,like too much in my oipion maybe 4 one each side?..just my pea for your hack..HA HA..
goood luck on this,will want to see more..

I know, and I'm planning on showing off some stuff soon. Thanks.

I have shown some of the tiles. And I hope you mean showing more details will generate more interest, not new tiles (because they're staying FRLG style).

I really like the style of the town picture. However, the part that has the Brandon sprite looks like it's just an extension to a Pokemon Center. Which I don't think is what it you meant. (Unless it was, then good job and excuse me for being stupid. :P)
Thanks. And yeah, it is an extension to a Pokémon Center. Thanks.

Haha, thanks. Hm, info on Felith? Surely.

...but not now. :D

Eh, it's just a filler map, so I wouldn't worry too much. Thanks.

Sweet work Ice, I like it. Honestly, I like the whole element of this, especially how... Vague the story is. It adds to the mystery (which I love). I am hoping to see good things from this (though, one thing. I guess this is just me, but that "desert sand" from RSE doesn't really fit too well with the FR sand at the moment. Only me really, but still, it could look so much better, but... You're choice, I'm happy either way)
 
Ah, sorry Pokecenter basment is what I meant. Nicely done. :P

And, your player seems to be trying to escape Cyan and it made me lol.
<: Thanks

Thanks. Yeah, I actually have removed it, but I haven't changed that screenshot yet.
 
All i can say so far is eh. Not saying it's bad or anything, i was more excited to see some of the new pokemon but i guess i'll have to wait for those....Story seems cliche BUT it does leave room for some interesting twist that could make ur hack pretty damn amazing. Good luck bro. I'll stay tuned for updates.

When they come to be available, I'll show the fakémon. For now, though, they're not being shown. The story isn't what it seems, I can assure you. I've got a lot planned out, so don't you worry. Thanks for the support.

Great Scripts Spherical Ice! I love the actions of CYAN with
happy face when he went out of the speedboat.

Nice Tiles and palettes! I'm gonna be supporting this Hack!

What a teaser! That makes me want more! :P

Thanks. One thing, though - I haven't touched the palettes. At all, haha.
Thanks.
 
I mean the roof ones.. Nice Tile editing! :P
 
Wow, Dark Cobalt is looking pretty good, and someone else besides me is finally using FR tiles. I love the new houses, too. Anyway, good luck!

Thanks for the interest.

I plan to insert some Generation IV and V Pokémon into Dark Cobalt, so look forward to seeing some inserted in the very near future.
