    (I have no idea if this is in the right thread, but forgive me if it's not :D)

    So, I had some ideas for getting back to romhacking and the best option I thought of was to make a Pokemon Hack. I started jotting down some notes, maps and whatnot... and something began to confuse me. I wanted to make this as a hack of Pokemon Gold, but as I was drawing the maps, I suddenly realized that it started to look better as a GBA hack (specifically FireRed) then a GBC one. So, right now I'm at a standstill and I have no idea which to choose. >_<

    In the meantime, I'll explain what I had planned out:

    -The game is set in a series of islands called the Apoiji Islands. (I got the idea after playing Golden Sun lol) The player must surf from one island to the next (thanks to the privelage given to him or her by the 1st gym leader and the Surf HM), battling the various gym leaders (and meeting some other individuals along the way) until he reaches his goal of getting to the Apoiji Pokemon League.

    -The player (and his respected rival) starts out on the peaceful Gelato Village in the island of Torovi. It is there that he gets his first Pokemon and travels to the city of Revano (a play on Verona, if anybody doesn't get that) to battle the first Gym Leader.

    So far, I've written down and drew out sketches of 3 islands with towns, routes (complete with trainer markings and whatnot), trainer info and other things. The number of islands I want to put in is yet to be decided.

    I can make a faux mini-map using separate tools I have to show what I wanted to do, but other than that I haven't gotten anything done with this other than my ideas. I'll post more as time goes by. In the meantime, let me know what you guys think of my ideas. :D
     
    you need a story and features.
     
    Well, its a start i guess. There's not much details to it right now, so it's kinda hard to give suggestions.
     
    Yeah, as far as I know, I've decided on it being a GBA hack, as I'll have more space to work thanks to the Kanto & Sevii Island maps. Combining them together to make one whole chain of islands shouldn't be a problem. :P
