What are your favorite hacks? What hacks are you currently playing?
Finishing up Fire Red Omega, just have the post game (after the rocket hideout on the islands) and dex completion. It's pretty fun, with most of the bosses being reasonably challenging with competently built teams. No idea how to get the the extra areas or if there's a way to get the other two starters.
I never got into the rom hacks, any good ones to start off with?
Nathan Reed
I'm playing Liquid Crystal right now, just got to Olivine City, then I surfed around most of the starting area getting into trouble. It's pretty good, if a little rough around the edges. I find the OC donut steel characters of questionable quality, but their actual teams are well-built without being too overpowering, so I can't complain that much.
r8 my team, I've also got an Ampharos and Beedrill who are around the same level and I switch out to cover various party weaknesses
Chase Martin
Oh, I almost forgot I also have a Noctowl I use! Silly me, my team is bigger than I thought.
Elijah Ortiz
Also I wish Moemon user would come back to take us for a ride again ;_;
Charles Green
Any good gen 4/5 hacks?
Easton Barnes
I enjoy them from time to time it just sucks that alot of them are unfinished
Any good gen 6/ORAS romhack that makes it a bit more challenging? I heard ORAS was crazy easy and it kinda put me off from trying it.
Xavier Hernandez
At least I talked about something, nigger.
Christian Reyes
There's an emerald hack for it.
Levi Phillips
That fire red hack which replicated Gold, and featured jessie&james stand-ins, as well as a weirdo bug catcher guy and a pair of romancing teenagers. Shiny Gold was it? There were so many firered-to-gold hack that I no longer remember them all.
Justin James
I actually really enjoyed that one half/vp/ made with all the custom pokemon and custom world. Felt new and fresh.
Jordan Morales
Pokemon Sage? Yeah, it was pretty good. If they can stick to it and finish it it'll probably be a rare case of a pokemon hack with good OC.
Ayden Wood
Can't remember the name, but that might be it. Did you start in like a mountain village with snow and shit? I might be completely pulling these memories out of a dream at this point.
Jaxson Scott
They were only here a couple months or so ago.
Bentley Long
half/vp/ made like three dozen hack attempts. that's the only board I still miss from halfchan they never went bad or corrupt, and our generals never quite got up to their level
Adrian Torres
Well, the one he's talking about, as far as I remember, was Sage. The starters were a hummingbird, a goat, and a lizard.
Brayden Howard
Looked it up, and yep, that's the one.
Oliver Walker
I'm playing Stormsilver myself as well as Expert Emerald. Trying to complete the pokedex in both.
Kevin Reyes

Bentley Gutierrez

Benjamin Adams
only pokehack I've done is pokemon prism, which was really great. Some of the sprites and sounds were dumb, but you can't beat having 600 pokemon on gen II.
Adrian Miller
lol wut
Luis Thompson
I'm mitigated on hackroms.
At first, I tried every I had in hand, but most were incomplete or buggy, so I focused on the usual suggestions. Which means I ended with these as favorites -
Moemon 386 Bloody Platinum, Sacred Gold/Storm Silver Blaze Black & Volt White 1 & 2 I enjoyed Star Sapphire, but not on the level of the older ones. From the comments I've seen here on Holla Forums, there's apparently a new build that seems interesting, but hard to find as a .cia.
Jace Ward
Nigga watched too much Naruto.
Gavin Howard
I havent personally played it but apparently pokemon insurgence is pretty good if your looking for a rom hack with some 6 gen stuff.
Easton Torres
You're a sadist aren't you?
Isaiah Hughes
Not a romhack, you morons
Adam Martin
Yeah, I didn't think that through too well.
Carson Collins
What do they do to change the game, and are there no OC donuts?
Cameron White
I can only speak for Sacred Gold, but it mostly seems to be minor tweaks - lots of minor changes to pokemon. Oh, I did answer a quiz in Violet Town and got to pick a 1st generation starter, and the elder of Sprout Tower gave me a handy evolution stone for my Eevee. No OCs as of yet, but I haven't gotten to Azalea.
Henry Hall
wtf
Nolan Baker
it ends up being the best pick
Daniel Parker
Fite me bitch nigga
Eli Lewis
At least they're still working on the project albeit really slowly
Elijah Howard
Looking for thisssssss?
Robert Green
Insurgence is fucking bullshit. The story is 6edgy12me and poorly written. The game is nothing but fucking grinding. I’m talking “heal after every single wild battle” grinding. It’s shit unless you cheat, and even then, with six level 120 Pokémon, you get scammed out of wins by level 60s. They’re all faggots.
Luke Green
So this is what a drug deal looks like
Liam Torres

Gabriel Martin
How good are the 3ds rom hacks?
Andrew Wright
>picked up a Gible in Union Cave, fits my party perfectly, even has a good nature >a Gible for a Beldum
Xavier Price
;_;
Austin Thomas
It was made in fucking RPG Maker man, don't mourn it.
Julian Richardson
Apparently there's an update thread in half/vp/ every Sunday, but no new demo since the last release.
Juan Jackson
Dude, they were here not too long ago. Beginning of March, I think.
Leo Clark
Pokemon Sigma Emerald… It's really just Emerald with most of the 6th gen mechanics (minus Megas, currently most of the moves from gens 5 and 6, and hidden abilities for some pokemon)…
Leo Roberts
So you're saying it's the definitive gen 3 remake
Jack King
It's shit apart from the pokemon designs.
John Williams
So are you gonna share why, or are we gonna have to guess?
Oliver Garcia
Just finished playing Vega. It's a Japanese Fire Red hack with almost the entire Pokedex replaced with (surprisingly good, mostly) Fakemons. There's also evos for awful mons like Farfetch'd and Dunsparce, but those are mostly postgame exclusive. If you haven't played it before I'd highly recommend it, but the level curve gets a bit silly at times (Gym Leaders have Pokemon 6 levels higher than regular trainers sometimes). It's also got a mediocre story, but it's a Pokemon game so it doesn't matter. It's also a sequel to two other Emerald hacks made by the same team, but those aren't as great as Vega. Obviously, there's an English patch for it, but I won't bother linking to it since it's the first result if you search. tl;dr play Vega, it's honestly the only good hack with Fakemons I've ever played
I asked this in a previous thread but I didn't get any responses.
Does anybody have recommendations for Pokemon ROMs that have all that generation's Pokemon, so no trading is necessary? Since I don't have any friends. ;_;
Gavin Garcia
Oh, cool. Have you guys made any threads since then? I recall you said you'd try to do them monthly or something.
All 700 pokemon? Are 500 not enough to capture?
David Long
Oh fuck no. I just mean like a Gen I ROM that has all its 151 Pokemon, a Gen II ROM that has the first 251, etc.
Ryan Peterson
I've had trouble finding a copy of Liquid Crystal that's not either a file I have no idea what to do with or from a place that's seedy as fuck.
James Turner
Clarification: I guess I was only really considering Gen I - III. I'm not really interested in Pokemon beyond that point.
Dylan Green
Omega Red has everything except the new starters (Magby, elctabuzz, Jynx) obtainable.
Wyatt Jackson
I was about to say Storm Silver, but I guess not.
Wyatt Price
Anyone have a PAR cheat for XD that lets you catch any trainer's pokemon? I know there are ones for the main games and I think it might make for an interesting change.
Parker Clark
I found it by google dude, it can't be that hard.
Kayden Bell
all of Dray's hacks are full revamps of the game, oftentimes buffing certain pokemon to make them more viable in terms of base stats or level up sets, adding in alternate ways to evolve trade-only pokemon, adding in more variety of wild pokemon as a whole especially in early routes, and increasing the overall difficulty curve of the game by giving gym leaders "competitive teams" and generally just increasing the levels of pokemon found everywhere, wild or trainer.
this is all done without changing the story or characters in the least, and I cant recall a single instance of OC DONUT STEEL.
David Rivera
Whos here has played the real pokemon diamond?
Owen Cruz
I got the Diamond/Crystal 2-in-1. Farthest I got was Delbi/Belbi Mt. before my save got corrupted.
SHIT! YOU'LL REGRET IT!
Brody Sanders
We were gonna but I think we are waiting till the next demo is out. We also dropped in another thread a week ago when we got mentioned; a number of us browse.
Charles Jenkins
How's the demo coming?
Jaxson Carter
got it in a spanish multicart
that the one where you gotta ring them up and wait for them to show up?
always laughed at how they would yell at you if it was nighttime
as a kid i thought the swearing was weird for a pokemon game
Adrian Watson
Don't you mean jade?
Chase Rivera
Playing Blaze Black's clean version.
What starter should I pick? I'll likely ditch mine ASAP because fuck using something I can get naturally in a all Pokemon hack Also the Gen 5 starters are shit.
Luke White
Play Blaze Black 2 nigguh, it's an upgrade from 1 in every single way. I've played both.
Jayden Roberts
Nope it was 2-in-1 with the bootleg Crystal version (the one with DRUG BAG ELF FUCK).
Tyler Rogers
Are there pokemon hacks that have a new story/characters/areas that aren't complete shit?
I first heard about this hack years ago, but I never thought it would actually get a fan translation patch. Very glad to see that that did indeed happen.
Luis Wilson
This.
Bentley Williams
Well enough. Wrapping up stuff, but we still can't say how soon it'll be out.
Charles Peterson
Thanks, friendo.
Gavin Brooks
The only really great pokemon hack I played was Pokemon Reborn. Well, not really a hack, but an RPG maker game. It's got the hardest gameplay I've ever seen in a Pokemon game and its campaign is 20+ hours long. A big plus is that it features all monster gens, meaning you can pick any starter. It also has unique game mechanics. On the downside and why I refuse to generally recommend it is that it's written by faggots and the story is filled with edgy melodrama and special snowflakes the likes of which you've never seen. Gameplay wise, tho, it spoiled other pokemon games for me.
Nathan Wright
Could you upload the file to the vola or something, I don't want to have to make an account on the website to get it
The room is created with the patched game and text files for changes. There's also a Moemon patch (which is just a sprite hack) if you want.
For anyone that might use a save editor: DO NOT FUCK WITH ANYTHING FROM GEN 4 AND BEYOND!
Adam Parker
...
Cameron Young
Hey, someone else who who actually played this hack! Made it somewhere into the post-game before it got translated a while back, and I was just starting to get back into it after I got the patch. What did you think of the secret areas with invisible paths and the fakemon that completely broke the game (not pic related, was some kind of ghost/dark wisp thing)?
Honestly I think that's the problem with most romhacks out there that aren't simply balance fixes or full pokedex hacks. The creators tend to try too hard to write an unique story that ends up being some dark end of the world shit. Bonus points if they use Ash or shadow pokemon.
Dominic Collins
Any of them come close to Colosseum's quality?
Jack Perez
Not even the requester but thanks user. Do i just need a GBA emulator to play?
Ian Ross
Pokemon Quartz.
Parker Edwards
Half/vp/ was shit.
but if you're gonna miss any halfchan board it may as well be that one
Jackson Turner
any good emulators you guys recommend?
Lincoln Sanders
Some free as in freedom inplementations. They have binaries for Windows too.
mgba.io/ Programmed in c and the most efficient implementation. Can run on a toaster.
dumbass underaged faggot, Wish is also a common event Pikachu move.
Samuel Morales
One I don't get. The wish is what really throws me off. Balloon pikachu isn't too unbelievable, but how's this nigger healing himself? This pikachu is magical. It must be some kind of apex rodent.
I’d love if 1. Cosplay Pikachu applied to all of them 2. The cosplaying was different forms that also added typing.
Jose Brooks
Oh, fuck. Pokemon learn the oddest things from their parents. And I'm not underaged, I just never played Yellow. Silver was my first pokemon game and honestly, I always thought Pikachu was shitty.
Zachary Russell
Morty killed my team.
Thomas Adams
Goodra should be hermaphrodite because its a slug
Michael Martinez
I've been playing Touhou Puppet Pals, and this game doesn't fuck around.
Solid pokemon like though, no gyms, HM's are usable items, and the animations are good enough on the Toohoos. Cant wait for the expansion to get translated, since this is doing Pokemon better than Pokemon.
Jayden Turner
Go to pokemonfloraskyrom.com and download that shit NOW This is my favourite rom hack apart from probably Light Platinum and the destinedjagold series
Eli Rivera
Is it bad that Bugsy's given me the most trouble so far? You're just asking for a bad time.
Nolan Brooks
LMAO what are u all like 5yo?
Logan Garcia

Levi Mitchell
I nuzlocke in all the romhacks I play. Well, the "challenge" ones, anyway. It's pretty fun, but I haven't finished a single run. I think I got farthest in Sacred Gold. Had a couple losses along the way, but Morty just ran train. Made it to 2 badges. My final two pokemon, The tadpole evolution and my newly acquired Liligant, appropriately named Hope, died in the forest to poison and a critical hit. Roxie raped my shit.
Eh, wasn't too bad, but I see how you might have some issues. I haven't played in a couple years. Maybe I'll try another run.
Henry James
Good luck, I hope you don't plan on beating the game.
Christian Ramirez
Thanks. I doubt I'll actually complete any runs, but it's all in good fun, right?
Carter Fisher
If that's how you want to enjoy the game. Personally, I think the hacks up the difficulty enough to where I don't need to nuzlock the game to have fun anymore, you know?
