An (Impossible?) Idea for an hack rom

    Premises: I play Pokemon till i was very young. I've dreamed for so many years to play in the "Real" World of POKEMON, but every time i bought a game and completed it (In exploring all areas main story and training) i felt a strange a strange sensation of "Incomplete". Because not every game gave you every possibility that the Pokemon World has. So imet for the first time with the Hack Roms. In some part, i reflected my dreams in that custom games, because every single hack offers a different history and a lot of features from different games. So my dreams started to become true. But it wasn't sufficent. So i tried to start my personal hack rom, but it was a fault because i wasn't not good at hacking. I stopped my project. But some times ago i tried again, with the new tools and resources that have sprung out only a few times ago. The project i've in my head is impossible(?), because hacking has some limits. But i think that if i'm able to push an hack very close to that limits, i can get close to that dream, to a "World" of Pokemon where i can face any sort of challenge and difficulty that trainers in every time (and every game) has encountered.

    My attempt It's two months ago that i've started to work on my new project, but i've encountered a lot of obstacoles, so i learned a lot of things like scripting, inserting new tiles and some other stuffs that an hacker should be able to do (i'm not a master in nothing at all). I'll put two files in the post: they're my attempt, the only difference between that two files is that in Alpha 1.7 there is a city that in Alpha 1.5 is not implemented, although it has no events except for warps, and some graphic bugs. I don't want to put screenshots because i would prefere that you try the Alpha's or watch them through your hacking tools and criticize anything is wrong (please remember that i'm a beginner :) ). Anyway i believe that i'll restart them from the beginning (keeping everything is good).

    Conclusions:
    Anyone that shares this dream, anyone who try the Alpha and has something to say, please tell it to me. If i can realize this, and if you can help me, please write under this. I know that i'm only a beginner in this forum and as an hacker, but if it is possible, than it will remain in the history of hacking (and also of POKEMON, i guess).

    thank you for reading this. I'm sorry for the english if it's not correct, for the idea if i'm not the first, for credits if they're not correct and for anything else i must do it.

    Hopefully it's unbroken then.

    You might want to specify which ROM this applies to, rather than relying on the ROM bases to convey this. In terms of 'realism,' which seems to be your stated aim, you might want to specify certain means by which you attempt to convey this, or in general give people a better sense of what exactly you're going for here, as such aims have been posited before and it would at the least serve to differentiate it. In addition, being not bad at ROM hacking would not usually be a problem if you were doing so.
     
    I'll edit the firts post for the Rom Base. For what i intend with "Realism": i want to create a region (or two regions, or two regions and other areas... or something like that) where all competitions ( an original main history, one/two evil teams, gyms, league, battle frontiers, contests(i use firered, so i want to create a contest mode more like the anime one) and every other thing you can find in a game) can be performed, and every features (Iperfly, swars, day and night only for mentioning someones) are present. A sort of game that reunites every of the main series (and also references and little events regarding the spin offs...)

    Hacking has no limits (but the one mentioned below)! Anything you can imagine, you can do--it just requires some coding knowledge, a little reverse-engineering, and probably a lot of trial and error.
