    ROM Base We're Using: Fire Red Squirrels(No download link will be provided as this is against the rules)
    Welcome Guys, I'm Working on a Pokemon X Yu-Gi-Oh! Crossover Rom hack called Pokemon YGODuelist, This is a Binary hack that uses the CFRU Engine including Pokemon And Moves Up to Gen 9, Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters from the Anime (Mainly Duel Monsters Era with a few GX, 5DS, and Vrains here and there), And the Ability to Catch and Raise any Pokemon you like.

    Story we're looking to implement:
    You are a Duelist in Kanto Region Dreaming of Becoming the Top Duelist, however there's a lot of Obstacles in your way that you have to Overcome. With Team Rocket Newfound Allies, the Rare Hunters, the Rockets and Rare Hunters Try to Unleash Chaos on the Pokemon World, Trying to Send duelists to the shadow realm, doing Shadow games, and Trying To Capture Mewtwo as the final Goal, Giovanni uses the Rare Hunters Odion and Marik to assist his goal of catching Mewtwo. There's also a Doma Arc Plot that Involves Dartz Attempting to Capture Eternatus to Unleash his final weapon, and A Duelist Kingdom Plot that Involves Pegasus Hosting a Tournament that involves 13 duels including the Duel with Pegasus to win a Special Pokemon.

    Features We're Looking to Implement:
    All Pokemon From Gen 1-9 obtainable
    Physical/Special Split
    Fairy Type
    Improved Graphics
    Mega Evolutions and Z Moves
    All Abilities and Items up to gen 9
    Raid Battles
    Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters as Gym Leaders, Elite four members, and Side bosses
    Difficulty Modes in Easy, Normal, and Insanity
    Easy Mode is basically Normal mode but allows you to use items in battle, play on Shift mode, and Removes EVs from opposing Pokemon
    Normal Mode is the Main Way the game was intended to be played, Challenging but not too Unfair, with The bosses having Competent Pokemon and Movesets and EVs. Has to be played on set mode, and no items in battle
    Insanity Mode is not how the game was meant to be played, with everyone having extremely broken Pokemon including ones you can't access at this point, even Illegal Evolutions like Giovanni having a Level 38 Hydreigon for example, and everything you face being way above the power curve accessible to the player at the point. But if you want a Real Challenge, this mode is for you
    Keep in mind that insanity mode is designed intentionally to be very unfair and poorly balanced

    Character Customization:
    Boy Player Character Dressing Options are Kaiba, Varis, Yusei, Yugi, Joey, N, Alian, Gold, Lucas, and Calem
    Girl Player characters dressing options are Mai, Tea, Blue Angel, Akiza, Alexis, Serena, Marnie, Lyra, Cynthia, and Geeta

    Music from Yu-Gi-Oh! Anime and Video Games
    Kanto Gym Leaders as Side Bosses
    Characters Dialogue Make References to Yu-Gi-Oh!, both the Anime and the Card game
    Each Elite four member has 2 Teams they can choose from
    New Postgame Content including New boss battles in the Postgame
    New Storyline additions in locations Like Shadow Realm, Doma HQ, Konami HQ, and Rare Hunters Base
    Many Pokemon have been changed to make them more Viable
    Over 120 TMS and A lot of move tutors
    Many QOL Features:
    Cheat Codes that you can enter at the NES At pallet town
    DexAll:Shows all pokemon in the route with dexnav
    MBall:Allows every pokeball to function like a master ball
    Candy:Lets you get infinite Rare candies by talking to a boy in Viridian city
    Care Packages are obtained as you progress through the game normally
    EV Training Services Available as soon as you reach Cerulean city
    All Eggs Hatch in 256 Steps or 1 Cycle
    Team Preview by pressing the L button in every fight
    Game Modes to add to difficulty:
    Sandbox mode lets you use any Pokemon and item at any point
    Minimal Grinding Mode Makes all Pokemon Have no EVs and perfect IVs
    Semi-Grinding Mode perfects the IVs of all pokemon

    Pack Simulator Mode:
    With this mode, you obtain Pokemon by opening packs, not from catching them
    You can open packs in any pokemon center
    Legendaries can only be obtained from the Master Pack
    You are given 6 packs at the start of the game, after each badge you get 8 more packs for a total of 70 packs in a playthrough
    You have 2 options to play with (Scaled and Unscaled)
    Unscaled allows you to pull any Pokemon right from the beginning
    Updated Battle Engine up to gen 9
    Scaled limits the Pokemon you can pull based off its base stats. The more gym badges you obtain, the higher the base stat limit
    0 Badges = 330
    1 Badge = 370
    2 Badges = 420
    3 Badges = 450
    4 Badges = 490
    5 Badges = 520
    6 Badges = 560
    7 Badges = 600
    8 Badges = 999
    Level Caps that prevent your pokemon from overleveling
    No need To teach HMs, as you can Use HMs outside of battle by just having the HM in bag and the corresponding Badge
    DexNav has been added to get the encounters you want
    Can sort Items in Bag by pressing L
    Time changer, Pokevial(a key item that heals your team without having to go to a pokemon center), Infinite Repels.
    Auto Run enabled immediately as soon as you get the running shoes
    Consumable Held Items come back at the end of battle after being consumed
    IV perfector In Lavender town for a Steep Price(100k for all 7 IVs)

    Recruitments
    My contribution: Documenting the game and testing
    What i'm recruiting for:
    A Coder
    A Scripter
    A Dialogue writer that doesn't add cringe dialogue(i may write some dialogue myself and giving it to the Co-creator)
    A guy who adds music (So we add the tracks i want to add in the documentation)
    Spritework for Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters and Custom Megas
    Mapping(mainly custom maps for the Gyms because we're looking to make them more thematic(Example: Mako's Gym being a Water themed gym)
    Programmers
    UI

    Elaboration Why i need those:
    I Always dreamed of a Pokemon Game that has Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters using the actual pokemon, while there's Yu-Gi-Oh! Pokeduel, that game reskinned Yu-Gi-Oh! Monsters as Pokemon rather than giving the actual Pokemon, which gave me this idea, the features are to make grinding easier while keeping some challenge. Keeping the Iconic characters from Pokemon(Giovanni, Team Rocket, Gary Oak, Professor Oak, Brock, Misty, etc.) while adding in Yu-Gi-Oh! Characters(Yugi, Kaiba, Joey, Mai, Tristan, Mokuba, Rex, Weevil, The rare hunters, etc.) makes for a very cool crossover. Which inspired me to share this idea
