Been around the rom hack scene a while, roughly over 10 years. Never really produced my own work, but tinkered with advanced Maps and Jambo toolboxes and whatnot back in the infancy of GBA hacking. Seeing all of the amazing work, and engine upgrades from many great minds(Dizzyegg is the goat) I've considered taking a crack at Firered/Emerald bases since disassembly took off.
I have 3 major questions in my pursuits.
-(1st is a 2 part Q)a.) how many theoretical "Breeding" slots can you have. I.e. Daycare.
b.) Can you those daycare mon under these "slots" to an Overworld sprite. Similar to GSC daycare.
2.)Would Question 1 rule Emerald out as my Base contender. Keeping in mind I want Contests in my hack as well as Berry Farming. "Following" Pokemon aren't as important to me as "Static actors"
3.) Is it possible to assign a value to each species? For "selling" breeding rejects. Keeping in mind a currency system for the facilities, their pricing would scale too. I was thinking a rarity system or a Level scale.
Weedle ->1 BP
Charmander ->3 BP
Or
Lvl 15 Charmander -5 BP
Vs
Lvl 50 Charizard - 15 BP
Or
Lvl 75 anything = 30 BP
Any other major changes between the two (Fire Red / Emerald) I should keep in mind.
Long goal short is a "Pokepelagos/Battle Frontier" combo.
Small(ish) world space, with some exploration centered on your "farming" islands. A Larger island with a couple towns and various battle facilities.
As I learn the, I'll expand my scope.
Any input is appreciated. Just looking for the simplest answers and maybe best place to study up on disassembly.
