FireRed hack: Pokémon Team Rocket Edition: Dragonsden Version - JOHTO RELEASE 30th APRIL

just curious, does Nidoqueen get an "X form" like Nidoking? if not i think she should get one to be on equal terms as both were HUGE pulls within Team Rocket's Executive caste
I remember seeing a Sprite for Nidoqueen Y, contrary to the fully physically focused Nidoking X, she is Specially offensive, I'll check the documents in a bit, and share the Stats here

Edit: Found the stats sheet
Spoiler:


Here's the base stats of Nidoqueen Y and Nidoking X for comparison between them

I just beat the 7 gym and got a call to go to the 8th gym but didn't know there was supposed to be a cut scene after the call and I saved right out the 8th gym and I don't know what to do to fix it
I play on mobile

that's actually good though, given normal Nidoqueen was physical-focused despite the best possible build for her was special attack focused - using Life Orb with Sheer Force while having special attacks with secondary effects, mine currently has Earth Power, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, and Flamethrower
 
I just rolled credits on the English section of this game, and FEAR Rattata is the MVP late-game.
FEAR is a guaranteed kill if the opponent's non-Ghost mon doesn't run Sitrus, it can learn weaker HMs so your stronger Poké's get more coverage moves, and once the Sash is used, FEAR acts as a one-time defender that allows you to heal one of your stronger Poké's. What an absolute unit.
 
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.

I know this is really late but like where do I get the HM for cut? 😭 I'm tired of using this sandslash
 
Did you visit the Rocket Base?
I did when It wouldn't let me in
I saw professor oak with giovani but he doesn't say anything
All giovani tells me is to fight the gym leaders
I already beat all 7 except the 8th

Female protagonist update when?
 
Female protagonist update when?
Dragonsden already has explained this in his post:
https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/pokémon-team-rocket-edition-dragonsden-version-complete-kanto-and-sevii-included-johto-release-in-april.527368/post-10812913
With the amount of work he had put in with the ranks, dialogue and overall design, I highly doubt a female protagonist version/option will be released. Maybe after 100% translation is done, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that. Plus the male rocket protagonist looks pretty cool imo.


Aside from that, I just completed completed the English Kanto + Sevii Island storyline and excited to see what's in store for Johto.
I would arguably say that this Team Rocket Rom Hack is superior in story, content and structure wise compared to Colonelsalt's version (which is really noticeable after completing that hack and going straight into yours with your Dragonsden version).

The fact the Spanish version is already ahead with 3 full regions with Kanto, Johto and Hoenn not even including the DLC and Sevii Islands, is an amazing feat in itself.
But also the story and sense of progression is what really got me hooked. It almost feel official and makes me wish Gamefreak would do in depth stories from the antagonist perspective.

Nonetheless, brilliant work with the translation so far. We will all be patiently waiting for the Johto translation :D

It's not all that necessary though. Focus Sash + Thunder Wave makes short work of most Legendaries.
