Update on the Idea:8/31/16
The Idea
For the beginning of this hack, I'd like to implement and accelerated playthrough of Hoenn. By removing most HM barriers and the Team Aqua/Magma story. This hack will essentially begin the game at a higher level. In the beginning you choose 3 Pokemon to begin the game with starting at level 30.(Via Battle Tent Selection) You will then play through a more open Hoenn to build a strong enough team to enter either the Battle Frontier or the Hoenn League. All Gym Leaders teams will consist of Level 50+ Pokemon. Unsure if I will keep HM use tied to the Gym leaders or if I will keep Gyms as a purpose of EXP. As well as trainers, Wild pokemon levels will have a much higher variety. "Overworld pokemon" will be between lvl 10-45. While with caves and such, the levels will get higher, the deeper into the dungeons you get. Another Scripting event id like to add is a reward system for catching Pokemon.
For example:
25:25 Ultra Balls
50:25 Rare candy
100:5x each Vitamin
and so on.
Not sure if those are the best rewards, so still open to suggestion.
OR...
My other thought was scrap Hoenn Completely, and create a hack Similar to the RPGM game "Pokemon Island" using the Battle frontier as a Hub town, still using most ideas above.
This town would have a massive mall, casino, berry farm,Safari ect. as well as Docks to take boats on adventures.
And lastly, A redux of the Frontier completely. By replacing a few trainer classes, I would like to add Several Trainers not present in Hoenn, like League members from Kanto and Johto. Who knows who else
My major issue atm is motivation. I have it again, but my main hurdle is getting the Starter function to work properly.(I have a post under Problem I plan to update soon) All good hacks have insight from other great hackers. So if anyone has any ideas that could help I would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure to use patches such as PSS split and MAYBE Pokedex Expansion and Fairy type for a few of those cross gen evos.
I have some screen shots of my work so far
