Okay, I'll be the first person to admit that I am not a hacker. I have never hacked beyond the range of the Action Replay before, but I'd like to learn. Until I can find time/equipment to do that, however, I have an idea for a hack that would be a lot of fun to make and be a hit to play.
Like most people, I was enthralled when Gold/Silver/Crystal came out and we were able to visit the old Kanto area. Unfortunatelly, the later games didn't include that wonderful feature. So, here's my idea:
Using the Pearl/Diamond game engine (I know there are roms out there somewhere), create a game that goes through all of the story lines that all of the games (official, at least) have come out with. Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.
For example: have the people start at Sinnoh (easiest, as you don't have to change much for that part), yet allow chances to capture ALL of the Sinnoh Dex, including the legendaries/event Pokemon. Integrate it into the storyline somehow. Next, have the person go through another region, allowing them to take 3 or so of their Pokemon from the old region, and have the rest cut off until beating the Elite 4 of that region. To make up for this, have all of the Pokemon from that region catchable and receive a new starter, etc. Of course, storyline is complete of old regions. Then, when the Elite 4 is beaten, their PC boxes merge and they have access to all of the Pokemon they've caught so far.
So say the player goes to Kanto next, they'd be able to take a set number of their old Pokemon and there'd be a ship that takes them to the Kanto region, where the player is taken to Pallet Town to start anew with Professor Oak.
Continuing this trend, the other regions are gone through until the player has complete access to all of the regions and able to catch ALL of the national dex.
That would be the requirements for this hack. Beyond that, refresh it a little. Put some new adventures in or maybe even a whole new, secret region (if you want). So, what do you think? Who'd be up for that challenge?
