    looks ok could be better I recommend not using fakemon. instead use 5th gen pokemon.

    I recommend you do use fakemon, in fact do what you want and don't listen to people who tell you how to make your hack.
    Apart from what I'm about to say here.
    Learn to map, and learn to script, too many people rush into hacking, like, a week after they learn a few simple things. All you've done is edit text and maps, the mapping is bad and scripts are reused = Bad hack.
     
    this hack looks good...
    If you want i can script map(im pretty good) and sprite.
    i can do ow and everything so please consider me,
    very well done for your first hack !

    Hmm... if you're making a Ruby Hack, make sure that you change all OWs to FR OWs (Because most RSE OWs are ugly, except for the female ones) and replace the ugly Ruby Tiles to either FR Tiles or custom tiles.

    But apart from that, it seems that you're making sufficient progress in the Hack. Good luck.
