(Junnin, and such is credited to MagesPages as these are originally his ideas.)
I'm working on a Pokemon FireRed Version rom hack named Pokemon MysticAurelian Version based off of the artwork of MagesPages (later known as PokePages). A gallery of his stuff can be seen here: ( https://imgur.com/a/mdQMp#0 and here: https://imgur.com/a/mJ8hT#6 )
Screenshots below, and please excuse the poor quality of some of the gallery art, MagesPages took down his art a few years ago for no known reason and it's now scattered all over the internet.
As for anybody wondering about the rights of my usage of his art, he hasn't been around for years. He disappeared around 2008-2009, removed all of his art from his old dA account (aside from the 500x500 pieces scattered around the internet), deactivated his newer dA account, and even shut down his email listed on his new dA account (you get an "invalid recipent" and such), so I'm pretty much in the clear. He is getting entirely full credit for his work being the base of a rom hack, of course.
Basic synopsis of MysticArelian Version
*Is set in a new region named Junnin, with +70 new Pokemon. The region's Pokemon designs is somewhat influenced by Australia.
*The professor's name is Pine, who works in a wild-life reserve and studies Pokemon ecology. Instead of the hero/herione and their rival getting their starter Pokemon from Pokeballs, they instead have hatched from Pokemon eggs and start out at level 1.
*The three starter Pokemon are the Small-Leaf Pokemon Eucuwala (A highly social green koala bear Pokemon, with physical oriented stats), the Swinging Pokemon Kindlemur (An agile lemur Pokemon, with speed/special oriented stats), and the Fin Pokemon Dimetrus (An aquatic dimetrodon Pokemon, with physical and special defensive oriented stats).
*The main villainous team of the region is named Team Zodiac, and aside from grunts, spies, and scientists, is split into 12 sub-admins based off of the western zodiac and a main admin, based and named after Ophiuchus. They are after the legendary Pokemon Orakey, said to hold all of the absolute truths and answers to the universe. The sub-admins appearances, personalities, and type speciality (if any) are based off of their respective zodiacs.

FAQ
Q; How big is Junnin's regional Pokedex, to be precise, counting fakemon only and both Fakemon and Pokemon?
A: If you count Fakemon only, it's about 81 new Pokemon. Both Fakemon and real Pokemon? Comes about to around 121 Pokemon so far, give or take a couple.
Q: When you do expect a two gym demo?
A: Soonest? A couple of weeks if I work non-stop and have an...erratic sleep schedule. Realistically? A month, maybe two. I like to iron out as many bugs as possible.
Q: What existing Pokemon will you include in the regional dex?
A: That's going to be a surprise! I'm considering some but most requests I've gotten aren't too specific and are too general. If I do choose to include a handful of them, some weaker ones will see moveset and base stat changes, to make them more useful!

Spoiler:
1. Which Pokemon do you think should stay, if any in particular? Your suggestion(s) doesn't have to be before Generation IV. If you suggest a
Pokemon, should there be any changes made? Like new moves, via egg moves, level, tm, tutor, etc. Base stats, ability changes, balancing, etc. I have the regional dex mostly planned out, and have 30 free slots in the regional pokedex.

of MagesPages' source art:

3. What should the heroine look like?
Hair style? Hair color? Clothes? Such as what type of shoes? What sort of t-shirt? Any accessories such as like watches?
What color should her backpack be?
4. What should the rival be like and look like?
What should be the default name(s)? What sort of personality? Snooty and cocky like Gen I's rival? Cruel and antagonistic like Gen II's rival?
Friendly like the later generation rivals? A composition/something more complex? Any motives or goals they have?
Any particular past events in their lives?
Hair style? Hair color? Clothes? Such as what type of shoes? What sort of t-shirt? Any accessories such as like sunglasses?
5. See this map below? It has a list of numbered markers, which are unknown/un-named areas.
Any ideas of what each of these areas should be, what sort of Pokemon they have
available (including of the regional dex; https://imgur.com/a/mdQMp#0, so please look at that before listing any suggested Pokemon!),
what purpose should they fill, etc? (ignore 21, that's the Junnin Pokemon League)
