FireRed hack: Pokémon Team Rocket Edition: Dragonsden Version (complete Kanto and Sevii included, Johto and DLC coming soon)

As per the discord, the Johto English Translation is in beta testing, and should be out by the end of fall.
Ah, so it's been moved to the end of fall now?

EDIT: Hmm... Just looked over recent comments, and so far the projected release is still "before fall" or "by the middle to end of September".

No way! You have no idea how badly I've been waiting on a translation for this!
Note: Firstly done in Spanish, has been translated by a small work team and me (Dragonsden). "Fire Red: Rocket Edition" created by Colonelsalt is a different game.

The main goals of this ROM hack are:

  1. Covering the entire timeline from FireRed/LeafGreen to Gold/Silver (+3 years), experienced from the perspective of Team Rocket.
  2. Pushing the limits of what's considered canon.
  3. To fully develop and include the regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and the Sevii Islands.

What's in the current download? Game projection for the coming months:

The current download includes the content of Kanto and Sevii. However, the translation of Johto and the DLC is already well advanced, and it is expected to be brought here soon.

Regarding .sav compatibilities, there shouldn't be any issues.

As for possible dates for the update with Johto and the DLC, it shouldn't take more than 3 months from the moment this post is published.

where is the download link?
 
Need help, where to grind more exp for the seafoam mission, would greatly appreciate it :-)
You're probably between trainers where this would work, but one of the best ways to train prior to getting the call in front of Victory Road is by facing a boss trainer and losing against their last Pokemon. You don't lose any money for losing trainer battles in this game, so doing so repeatedly lets you Level-up your team. (The best ones are gonna be ones that are close to Pokemon Centers/healing points, but that'll depend on where in the story you're at.)

Bruno would have made a decent option to do this. But if you're passed that, I'm not sure of other choices at this time.
 
I have a question about the johto and hoenn expansions. How long are each of these portions of the game? Are they like entirely new games? Or are they similar in length to sevii islands?
 
have a question about the upcoming expansions. Will it be a sequel of the current game? Or will it be a new beginning with your current team (and box pokémon) all starting at lvl5?
 
How can I evolve Togepi? I been riding bike back and forth for days and he has exp share as well..I just leveled him up thinking it was enough friendship but no evolution

I posted a tweet about this, recently:

-------------------

Each season %

25% Kanto (30-35 h)
15% Archi7 (12-16 h)
22,5% Johto (25-30 h)
17,5% DLC (15-20 h)
20% Hoenn (20-25 h)

Total: About 110 h

-------------------

I'm working hard in both Hoenn (spanish) and Johto (English), adding a lot of more content, more than I could think a few months ago.

Improving the current Kanto/Archi7 translation as well, with the new cutscenes and sidequest it will be in the spanish Hoenn release. Improving scripts too. A lot of work, but next version would be considerably better.

Use full CALCIUM, HP UP, CARBOS... is for friendship.
 
Still nothing?

All in all a lot of work, but next version would be considerably better.

I had also some computer problems this summer, anyways, is getting closer.

Thanks! Don't mean to be pushy, I just really enjoyed playing the first release and have been checking here pretty much daily. You did such a good job!

Personally, I don't care about 100% translations, it's the just the gameplay but if you are working hard to solve "problems" some people have with the language then fair play to you.

The world is a bit sinister at the moment and my life is very bland so I'm so looking forwards to distracting myself with the new content.

Big up yourself for a great job so far and, I'm sure, a great job of the new versions
 
I'm still pretty early in the game (I just completed the mission with Bill and the patent). I find this quite fun. My only critique so far is that the translation is still quite rough. A lot of the wording and typos just make reading a lot of the text a bit of a pain when some of the sentence structure simply doesn't make sense. However, I know that translating is a very difficult thing so I won't harp on it too much. Even though the dialogue can be jarring, it still doesn't take away from the overall good time I'm having. I can see some similarities between this project and the FireRed Rocket Edition but this is unique enough that I'll play as far as the game goes.

A sequel.

Holy shit! That's so much gameplay, fuckin awesome man! By the time everything comes out in English I'll have to replay from the beginning lol

It'd be cool as fuck to see like a whole series where Giovanni is the true mastermind behind all of the teams in every region, just being the behind-the-scenes benefactor that sets every game story in motion. Then he and Team Rocket swoop in after each team falls, consolidating power and resources in every region. Final game has you be Giovanni himself, win the Masters 8 tournament (beating Red in the final, who Oak has rebooted to be even better), becoming Monarch and taking over the entire Pokemon world basically
 
Where can I get the hm surf and tm psychic?
Don't want to keep sentret in my party for Sirf.
 
When the Johto translated comes out will we have to play from the beginning or we could continue from before Johto?
 
Just finished Kanto and thoroughly enjoyed this hack, big thanks to Dragonsden and the team for all your hardwork! Patiently waiting for the next translated installment now.

I do agree with other posters that in places the translation isn't perfect or is missing, it didn't ruin the immersion for me though. The translation also seemed to improve as the story progressed. I thought the story was great and well thought out. There is a good balance of qol improvements (I just wish I didn't have to teach my team HM moves) and the game can be surprisingly difficult in places. Finally, I really enjoyed the addition of reward pokemon, I found myself changing my team a lot throughout the story.

I would put this hack right up there as one of the best I've played.

From what was mentioned, while it's too soon to say for sure, saves are currently likely to be compatible with future updates to the translation.
 
So for the last few days i've been playing this game but i have chosen to not continue my run further.
Dont get me wrong, the game is amazing, i love the story and the way you rank up in team rocket.
But the grind is getting to me, i dont want to keep grinding and grinding to get strong enough to beat certain phases of the game.

For now i got until Surge, thats where my run ends, and up until then the game was a blast!
Thank you for this hack, maybe if there are some quality of life updates that i may continue this game.

Good luck with the translations and all the other work you are putting into it!
