DISCLAIMER:
This game and its story is founded purely on my imagination and on the influence that I had watching videos about this mysteries! I made this hack because I want Pokémon Fans to have a possible answer to some mystery and enigma regarding Kanto and the Pokémon World in general.Story
This hacks aims to give an answer to some of the most intriguing mysteries of the Pokemon World:- Why did Red go to Mt. Silver?
- Who is Red's father?
- What is the secret behind the Great Pokémon War?
- Who was the first Champion of Kanto?
While staying true to the original Fire Red plot, the story takes place in alternate universe from the one known before, and consequently it is a mixture of some manga, some anime and some games events, NPCs and locations.

I have a lot of fantasy and I wanted to make a ROM hack since I was 15 when I played Pokemon Light Platinum for the first time.
I don't care about fame and the awards that you can give me, all I want to is to make a Pokémon ROM hack that everyone can ENJOY.

A: In the current beta, you can't.

A: 23 and 51.
Q: Why so high?
A: I always hated how middle form were used for less then 1/8 of the game as they evolved so soon

A: No thanks, I'm good.
Q: Is there a wild pokémon location list?
A: No,and I won't provide one,go and explore(Keep in mind that only in Kanto and Johto you will only find Pokémon from Kanto and Johto)
Q: Who are you? Fred? I never heard of you before...
A: True, I wasn't registered in any PokéCommunity before signing in this one just a few months ago,however I have been into pokemon hacking for almost 5 years studying scripting and mapping and hexediting (if that's a word), finally last summer I come up with an idea of making a simple hack with many stand alone quests, which later became Pokémon Secret Diaries with a story of his own rather than just some simple not connected events...
And that wraps it up!
Known bugs
Spoiler:
- If you open the Town Map from the Bag, some colors will be messed up
- When you enter Pewter City from the new part of the Mt.Moon the tree that was blocking the entrance to the Old Amber room will disappear
- When you are in a tag battle, looking at your partner Pokémon Summaries could freeze your game
- If you talk twice to the Gym Badge Man, in Cerulean City, without leaving the house between the 2 talks, it will result in a buggy message, however if you just press A and wait for 5/10 seconds it will go back to normal
