    Hey all,

    I really REALLY want to create a new hack. I have a sick idea, storyline etc etc, but I have a problem.

    I need a ROM base which includes up to at least gen 5 Pokemon, moves, abilities and combat mechanics etc. I would love the newer items too.

    I know CFRU exists but honestly, it's too much work. I created my previous hack using simple tools such as a A-Map, XSE, G3T, Notepad, MS Paint... CFRU is way above my technical ability to set up and the idea of sinking 4 hours into learning how to set it up only for it to fail because I missed a tiny detail kills my enthusiasm. I can't even decipher 90% of the jargon.

    Can anybody assist me with a ready to go patch? Maybe help me set up a CFRU base how I need it? Answer my few questions? Just a little discord session would possibly do it.

    I really want to turn this new idea of mine into a playable game but I just need some help getting past this first hurdle.

    I stopped ROM hacking in 2012 originally. Came back, updated my old hack, and that's it. I've missed a lot and just need some assistance at least to get me going.
