    Pokémon Fire Red enhanced for a Randomizer experience
    Hi, I did this "hack" if we can call it one to have a better experience when I play Randomized Fire Red. Since it looked good, I decided to post it here for other people to use it if they want to.

    Note: You are supposed to randomize a clean Fire Red rom and then patch it with my .ips.
    Features:
    - Physical/Special Split System implemented
    - New Pokémon sprites from Gen 4/5
    - New Pokémon icons from Gen 6
    - New In-Battle & Outside Textboxes
    - New HP Box
    - Decapitalized Pokémon names, items, abilities & moves
    - Running Shoes inside Buildings
    - Reusable TMs

    Randomizer to Use:
    Universal Pokémon Randomizer 1.7.2

    Important Stuff in the Randomizer Settings:
    - "Update Base Stats"
    - "Change Impossible Evos"
    - "Give National Dex at Start"

    Pokémon Base Stats haven't been updated to their Gen VI state, and Pokémon evolutions haven't been edited. So if you don't plan on using VBA Link to evolve Pokémon like Kadabra, I suggest you to click the first two for a better gameplay experience. National Dex is necessary to evolve Pokémon outside of Kanto I think, so that's a very important one too.

    In the download there's a very basic Premade Seed for the Randomizer that I usually use that I think it's optimal for this patch.

    P.S.: I wish I could post a few Screenshots, but it says I can't post links so I put them in the download attachment. Please tell me of any bugs and make sure to post some screenshots of your Randomizer runs if you do end up playing it. Bye from Italy.

    Is it possible to play this without randomizing? These are excellent quality of life changes. If not, is there a hack out there that makes these changes (while making the regular game more difficult too)? Sorry if these are noob questions, never done hacks before.
     
    found a glitch. I literally cannot continue the game. It freezes when Professor Oak hands me the Pokedex. press the A-button again, the coin case menu shows up on the left of the screen and the dialog repeats, complete with the rival running off screen. wash, rinse and repeat.
