POKéMON CHRYSOCOLLA
(I don't know if I'm keeping the name. All the good rocks were taken.)
Introduction:
Verre - a large region containing snowy climates in the north and tropical beaches in the south. Two mountain ranges known as Mt. Whitehead and Mt. Blackhead respectively divide the east and west into wasteland and lush forests.
Ignore the fact that they sound like pimples... I came up with that idea 10 years ago.
Verre is filled with lots of ancient history, containing eight different ruin sites across the map and one big secret. It's also home to many interesting characters - many bad and many good.
Pokémon Chrysocolla version is a rom hack built to feel like it was made some time between RSE and DPP. With that gen 3 look and feel, collect the 8 Infinicade League badges and take on the sinister Team Alpha while you explore the new region.

There is currently
no download available for a patch of the rom yet. This hack is still under progress, and I have run into some roadblocks that make the game unplayable from start to finish for the time being. I will update this post again in the future when a patch is available.
For more details, you can check out my YouTube channel here where I explain some of the background (there is some foul language in the video so I didn't want to link it directly; the title of the video is "GAME FREAK won't like this...").
