Before the annoying clamour of people saying "Use Firered", it really makes no difference.
All ROMs have their pros and cons. Pick whatever you want. (However, some tools have compatibility for Firered, Ruby and Emerald, but not Leafgreen and Sapphire, as they do not use the right Offsets. I'd choose 1 of them, but they all have differences)
Which one would be best for a hack that involved changing alot of pokemon? Like changing their names and stuff like that?
I'm hacking since five months and I know the 95% of glitches. The reset glitch only appears on Pokemon Ruby (nerverly ever on Pokemon Fire Red).
The ROM's initially are good made, the questions are these: Is this rom good for hacking? Will appear any glitch if I hack it?
They are two different things. As has said NarutoActor the rom we hack depends of preference of the rom hacker.
Bye.
yeah what fanking said the glitches you are talking about are your fault :C there is no one rom which was a in-game glitch. maby faulty tools caused it but not the atucal rom.Five months isn't a very long time to be hacking to be honest. Also, I'm fairly positive that the "reset glitch" you're talking about only appears on Ruby for you because of offsets. Editing essentially the same thing on different ROMs could produce completely different glitches.
Glitches are cause of the hacker, not the ROM itself.
Five months isn't a very long time to be hacking to be honest.
no what he saing is 5months in rom hacking isnt something to brag about. obviously some people are faster than others but time brings expirence I have been hacking for a year now and I can easly say the longer you hack the better you will become.What are you talking about? Not to get off-topic, but 5 months is plenty of time to be hacking. It only really takes about a month to start a good, successful hack. It took me 3 weeks after I joined PokeCommunity to start SacredFire, and I haven't experienced any non-fixable glitches. My ROM is fine.
The more time you've been here, doesn't mean you'll have more talent in hacking.

Ruby is my choice:
Why?
Ruby advantages against Firered:
The "bad" graphics can easily be changed by inserting new tiles.
It has a clock! HUGE ADVANTAGE (Meaning you can make time based stuff, like GSC. ZodiacDaGreat made an ASM function for this, and there are DayAndNight tools for Ruby as well)
It has more specials (I think)
It has more sprites (Even though you can add extra sprits into Firered and Ruby via hex editor. The tutorial for adding more sprites in FireRed works in Ruby, as do most other tutorials.. Just find the correct offsets if you can.)
The truck script CAN be removed (There are now tools that do this)
PokeNav
Many more extra features can't name atm..
Secret Bases
More Music (Even though you can extend the amount of music you can add in both Ruby and FireRed via hex editor)
Now FireRed's advantages against Ruby:
More tutorials for FireRed (as most people hack FireRed) (Many FR tuts are kind of the same as Ruby)
4 world maps! HUGE ADVANTAGE (Especially if you want more than one region)
No hassle of removing the truck script
They both have some songs from the GSC series.
In case you don't know, FireRed is same as LeafGreen, Ruby is same as Saphire (Advantages wise)
Emerald is just like R/S except it has more features (EX: Battle Tower, Animations for Pokemon in battle)
HOWEVER: I heard that Emerald is very unstable. I don't know how unstable it is and to what extent.
Overall, I would say Ruby is the best to choose. Even though there is only one world map, you can PROBABLY fit 2 or 3 regions on one map.
OH and IMO I think you should learn how to do some stuff in FR/LG then go on to R/S/E, because of the fact that there are more tutorials. FR/LG are easier for beginners.
