    BETA VERSION v1 RELEASED. PLEASE SEE the eighth post.


    Please click the images to see them at full size. I apparently can't link an image into my posts until I have 15+ plus posts, so.....

    I will ask a Mod to move this to Hack Showcase once I get some pictures up. Which will be in about a week.

    Note this is the second time I've Pokémon ROM Hacked. I was working on another one about a year ago (Before I joined here), but it fell apart, and now I'm back to try again.

    NOTE: This is VERY KH related, just with the fact that no one has magical abilities.

    Where Kingdom Hearts meets Pokémon



    A Hack of FireRed


    Storyline

    It is five years since you conquered the Pokémon League and became Champion. In that time, you have been in an underground facility while you have been in a coma caused by unknown reasons. You finally awaken and are shortly met by an enigmatic man named DiZ, who lives in Professor Oak's vacant lab and explains that two groups, Team Darkness and Organization XIII, have slowly risen to power in the Karita Region, as Kanto is now called. Team Darkness, led by a mysterious man named Ansem, has taken over Team Rocket's assets, (Team Rocket has, mysteriously, dropped off the face of the planet), while slowly funneling money into secret projects, the most mysterious of them known only as The Dark CCL. Organization XIII, on the other hand, has taken over the Pokémon League, installing its members as Gym Leaders, Elite Four, and Champion, and next to no Trainers have come close to becoming the next Champion. DiZ, meanwhile, has learned that both groups are planning something; something to rock the very balance of the world. You agree to set out on a new adventure with new Pokémon in an attempt to stop the two rouge factions and to learn of what really happened to you five years ago…….


    Features

    -No Pokédex Quest (Nat'l Dex given at start of game; supposed to be PLAYER's old one, but you DON'T have to fill it out)
    -KH Music (Need to fix certain songs…)
    -"Sora" and "Kairi" as Playable Characters with "Riku" as Rival (Also see R/R below)
    -Incorporation of Org. XIII and Ansem (Xeahnort's Heartless) into Pokémon World (Below)
    -Ability to rebattle Org. XIII members after entering Hall of Fame in a new location, the Castle That Never Was. (Below)
    -Replacement of Team Rocket with Team Darkness. (Will be MUCH HARDER than Rocket)
    -Addition of The Dark CCL (Isn't hard to figure out, but don't spoil it for anyone else…)
    -Varied Storyline/Plot from FireRed.
    -New/Redone Locations, such as the Dark Pass, Castle that Never Was, Underground Lab, etc.
    -New Region (Actually Kanto in the game's "present day")
    -MORE TO COME.


    Organization XIII and Team Darkness

    -Organization XIII has taken over the Pokémon League, and its members have been instated as Gym Leaders, E4, and Champion in REVERSE order of their number. Below is their Org. position, Name, Type, and Location. (INSERT CITY/TOWN NAME HERE) indicates that that city is going to be renamed.

    XIII – Roxas – Steel - (Pewter) City Leader
    XII - Larxene - Electric - (Cerulean) City Leader
    XI – Marluxia – Grass - (Vermillion) City Leader
    X - Luxord - Psychic - (Celadon) City Leader
    IX – Demyx – Water - (Saffron) City Leader
    VIII - Axel - Fire - (Fuschia) City Leader
    VII – Saïx – Fighting - (Cinnabar Island) Leader
    VI - Zexion - Ghost - (Viridian) City Leader
    V – Vexen – Ice - Elite Four I
    IV - Lexaeus - Ground - Elite Four II
    III – Xaldin – Flying - Elite Four III
    II - Xigbar - Poison - Elite Four IV
    I – Xemnas – Normal - League Champion

    Once first entering the Hall of Fame, access to the Elite Four will be barred and access to the Castle that Never Was will be granted via Route's 27 and 28, new Routes that will be just off of Cycling Road, and the Dark Pass, a new Location at the end of Route 28. Upon beating Xemnas in the Champion Battle, he will give you the XIII Stone, an artifact that will allow you to enter Route 27 from Transverse Cave, located next to the Fly House off of Cycling Road.


    -Team Darkness is a new villainous group that replaces Team Rocket in PH. Led by a mysterious man named Ansem, they seem to be working with Organization XIII to some extent, yet that is not confirmed. In an Underground Lab, they are currently working on a project known only as The Dark CCL. What could that possibly be, and what is Team Darkness, really?


    Trainers

    The Trainers scattered around the world are now mostly in the employ of Organization XIII. The ones out in the field are either of Dusk or Creeper Rank, placed there to deter travel and stop actual Trainers from getting to Gyms and thwarting the Organization's plans. Gyms also have specifically ranked members, based on the Member's chosen Type, and many upper-ranked Trainers are found along Route's 27-28 and the Dark Pass. The Ranks are, in order of which Member controls Trainers of that Rank…

    XIII - Samurai
    XII – Charger
    XI – Swiper
    X – Gambler
    IX – Dancer
    VIII – Assassin
    VII – Beserker
    VI – Schemer
    V – Needle
    IV – Tremor
    III – Dragoon
    II – Sniper
    I – Sorcerer

    Note that these are ranks assigned to Trainers. For instance, on Route 2, you might encounter "Organization XIII Dusk Brad" or "Organization XIII Creeper Melanie", and in the (Pewter) City Gym, you would encounter only Trainers named "Organization XIII Samurai (INSERT NAME HERE)" and the Leader, "Organization XIII Roxas". I hope this isn't confusing.


    MORE TO BE ADDED…

    Pokemon and Kingdom Hearts are my two favorite games, good luck! I support this hack! I'm not that good at hacking or anything, but I can give making a Userbar a try!
     
    Jesus!O_O

    I haven't played FireRed ever before but only the fact that this is like re-making Kingdom hearts it's enough for me!

    I'm gonna try it once you release the beta(and from your post I assume it will be pretty soon)!
