Intro:
For the past 1-2 months a hack such as this has been on my mind. My ideas are to keep it simple but make it worthwhile. I've been kind of arguing between making this a hack of Ruby or Red Rescue Team, but lurking around has helped me realize that Mystery Dungeon games haven't exactly been taken advantage of yet. At least in the major parts. So for now I'll keep it as a Ruby hack. My abilities to hack are small but read tutorials on scirpting whenever I can at school, but other than that, I know I'll still need more practice as I go along. I've mainly come here for critisism on the idea itself.
The hack itself:
Hack of Pokemon Ruby(U)
The OFFICIAL name of the hack isn't final. "Revolution" doesn't really sound right, but I don't know. It sounds overused so I might change it.
Am thinking about a "choose your partner" method, because I know everyone has their own personal preference. I guess I'll explain this section in the story section.
Would be impossible though if I want the story to fit well together, so /shrug.
Storyline:
You're a 16 year old kid living with your parents as of now. You have a small job and are a Junior in high school. You yourself are sort of quiet also, but are very open when you feel like you can trust someone (of course the Silent Protagonist scene will be taken away in this game). One day while riding your bike out into the woods, you stumble upon a group of dogs attacking a rat like animal. Things are kind of awkward though, the dogs look like something you've never seen before along with the rat itself, and not only that the rat is somewhat large. A little unusual, but oh well. You decide to shoo the dogs away and take the rat back to your house and see if it needs caring. Your mom is a vet so you think she can care for the thing. After the incident the creature decides to stay with you. You have no idea why, but nobody in your household minds so nothings holding you back! You keep him!
A few months pass and you're browsing through the television and decide to see the news. Tragic events have been occurring all over the world. Birds, dogs, fish, every kind of animal in the world has been changed out of nowhere, even in your hometown. "The animals have been known to carry unique abilities, most that ignore the laws of nature completely, and they all even carry the ability to speak." said on NBC. You don't know whats going on, until your pet mouse comes to you. "Pichu!", it exclaims. You get freaked out, because of course it's impossible for rodents to speak, right? Right? You think nothing of it and try to stay calm about it, but want to tell your parents about it of course. Before you can do anything, a group of men with strange suits break into your house and inject you with a tranquilizer. You're knocked out cold and the next thing you know you wake up in a prison type cell. Not very comforting to wake up to is it? There are others in with you and suddenly everyone is called to eat lunch. Still confused, you just go with the flow and start meeting people, including your soon to be partner.
Much more happens from there on out.
More Info:
As the forum name suggest I'm just jotting down ideas and would like a bit of critisism on what you see so far. Would you play a hack that has the same storyline everytime you go through it? Or only a select few of playable characters? I have (Ruby Rescue Rangers), and thats why the idea seems brilliant to me.
As you progress you will of course have more than one Pokemon, but the selection will be limited and realism will be a major factor in the game. (etc. could you see a pokemon evolving in real life?)
I'm trying to have the game spark emotions with a great story that I hope everyone enjoys.
I'm currently the only one working on this hack, but I might have another friend who would work on it if I can convince him. He's been very interested in hacking for a while.
There is no progress in the hack, but I'm practicing as much as I can. I might go ahead and start on the maps whenever I get a good chance.
If you wish to help with the hack just PM me. I'll start up a progression event and team event and will be reading back up here often to see what everyone thinks.
God Bless!

More Info:
- You don't have a rival, but this time I plan to replace the rival with a female protagonist (as seen in the story). You'll get the ability to name her where the rival is supposed to be named.
- A Pichu partner of course.
- Possibly a 15 year old+ game. I'm going to try and make things realistic, not have heros who will be willing and brave to do everything without complaining about it.
