[FireFig]

I was using over world editor reborn all these days and then suddenly someone told me owm is the software used by many hackers, so I downloaded it and opened my rom but I didn't know anything bout it can someone give me a brief guide bout (DON'T U DARE LINK ME TO OTHER THREADS, DO SOME WORK )

I'm sure giving a tutorial link thread is the same as replying to your question.

Spoiler:

Here is an example of a sprite in game that can be edited using the Over World Editor.

Those sprites can be edited using the Over World Editor. Such as the Hero sprite from Pokemon Emerald that I've given the link to.
You can change the sprite while it is walking, running, using a bike, when it is about to use the fly move etc.

Each Protagonist sprite contains a lot of frames as I've said, like walking, running etc.
Since it is a sprite editor, you can edit the color or the overall appearance of the said sprite.

It is a simple tool, it does not need a brief guide. It is only for editing sprites in-game.

Note: NPCs, Gym Leader, Rivals, Champion can all be edited.

Another Note: Most NPC use the same pallete, make sure to watch the video I've given out so you won't mess up the pallete.

For better understanding, here is a video using the Overworld Editor.

Lastly, I am no better. I am also a beginner. Correct me if I've given out wrong details.
They are all base on my understanding.

Chances are small you're going to find someone who will be your personal guide in ROM Hacking. There are plenty of tutorials available to learn it though. For OWM I'd advise to check Anthroyd's Generation III Video Tutorials on Overworld Editing.

I already watched aspiring poketrainer's video (actually I have an complete playlist of all his videos in my PC :)
I jus didnt understand the palette expansion (natovox patch or something I don't remember) I jus opened my ROM in owm and closed it without editing anything (BTW I edited the hero sprite using ow reborn, I jus finished the walking part and the running one is jus a palette change of red to my hero's pal) I don't know wat is the error but when I opened my ROM it freezes while naming my character :(this happened only when i opened my rom in owm and did nothing) that's y I asked for owm knowledge
