This quarantine sucks! So I'm going to be working on my own rom hack for as long as I can, right now I have basic mapping and some functional sprites done! But I'm working on it every day, here's my general gist
"Years ago scientists in Kanto borrowed data gathered at Hoenn's Weather Institute and attempted to create a machine that could stop large storms. Being able to put a stop to typhoons and storms could save thousands of lives! However other forces wanted this machine as well, and due to some foul play, it went berserk. Dozens of catastrophic natural disasters struck Kanto at once, Tornadoes devastated its forests, earthquakes split Rock Tunnel in half, Typhoons flooded the region and a volcano hidden beneath Cinnabar island went off. However thanks to the help of its powerful trainers, Kanto managed to survive this destruction.
Now more than a decade later, life has continued on Kanto, and many new species of Pokemon have emerged! Older species adapting to their new surroundings have mixed with the normal wildlife!
As Oak's newest intern he has delegated you and 2 others to explore the region and document these new species, and how they interact with the native wildlife"
What I want to do
1. Basically a whole region wide "Regional Variant" for pokemon, basically new forms for almost every original 151! (I say almost cause I'm not strong enough to acknowledge mr mime)
2 Higher importance on exploration rather than just "fight gym, walk to next town, train, fight gym, etc" I want to make Kanto fresh and fun to explore!
3. Interesting story with a minimum on Original Characters's, I like kanto! But honestly gamefreak's remakes never want to work with the source material and make new stuff, so I want explore as much of the base characters and gym leaders before I add new characters
4. Rival Revamp: More Blue/Gary story and fights, keep him rude but show off why he is a dingle and how much of a dingle he can be. Daisy Oak as a third rival? (Blue/Gary's sister that just stays in pallet town for no reason)
6. Fun Challenge that doesn't require long grinding sessions
