I wonder why they decided to turn this nigga into a mega faggot in the remakes
His ace is a male milotic and he's a contest master, he was already a mega faggot.

Unrelated, but I wish there were more "minimalist" romhacks out there. I've been wanting to do a nuzlocke of HGSS lately but the level curves are absolutely fucking atrocious and really drag the whole thing down. You can use the universal randomizer to bump up the levels, but it's not a perfect fix, and all the halfdecent romhacks for the games are drayano-tier "uber mega difficulty overhauls with 5 extra generations of pokemon and a dozen sidequests" when I just want to play the fucking game without having to grind level 30 geodude for the elite fout.
 
Really liking this simple build. She needs a name though. Any name suggestions?
You should name it "Cat". See, foxes are considered to be canines, so they have more in common with dogs than cats. Everybody knows dogs and cats are total opposites to each other and don't get along very well, so it would be hilarious to subvert peoples expectations by naming it "Cat". After all, who would have a dog named "Cat", or a cat named "Dog"? Nobody would ever expect it!

Imagine you're eating dinner with your constituents, and one of them looks over and notices you playing Pokemon on your red Gameboy Advance SP. As a former Pokemon fan himself, he's interested in revisiting his childhood memories of searching for Dugtrio in Diglett cave, that is until he notices your Ninetails is nicknamed "Cat". He looks up at you and says, "that's clearly a nine-tailed fox, why on earth is she named Cat?" You look up at him and begin to laugh. "She's a dog named Cat! Funny isn't it?" You continue to laugh hysterically while your constituent is left in utter confusion. He's left only with his mind to piece the puzzle together for a moment, until finally it clicks. The fox is named "Cat", but clearly it is not a cat, it's a canine. It's completely absurd, the world has flipped upside down, and that's the whole point! Realizing this, his confusion is broken with hearty laughter. "Yes I suppose that is rather silly isn't it?" he says as the moon settles in the sky and your Pokemon journey continues throughout the night.

You could also name it "Star Fox".

Another day. Another journey through the hell know as Emerald Rouge. It actually went pretty good today. manage to not only get past the 7 gym leader, But beaten two of the elite four as well. i just got really, REALLY unlucky with some battle's and lost half my team (got to love sucker punch). What shocked me the most is how hard gliscor carried me through the journey. I was planning on getting ride of him as soon as i got him but that fucker more then earned a spot on my team. sword dance+acrobatics kicks ass.

I played so much, i more or less have a pre-team ready to go whenever i start a journey.

tyranitar: My starter. Set up stealth rocks and earthquakes. simple as. Just got the TM for dragon dance, Making him more OP.
Electivire: Choice band/volt switch combo
Gyarados: Physical attacker with waterfall after setting up dragon dance (which he learns on his own by level 45, which is insane!)
Girafarig: Have it carry a Eviolite for that sweet defense/spdef boost and set it up with a nasty plot

The rest are just randoms i found on the field. Had a zangoose with poison orb and facade that was surprisingly strong. Sadly, i think i will replace Girafarig with gliscor for a bit and see how that works out.

i also cached a jirachi which was cool.

Recently I joined a group that proposed making a TTRPG based around PMD since the concept sounded really cool at a first glance, As of now the thing is still on active dev but despite it being still in pre-planning/alpha phase, there are a lot of red flags on it already. Just take a look at the start-up page in this character creation sheet:

What identity politics do to an otherwise prosperous idea (Why does everyone goes to Chuck's instead of Sneed's by default?)
As expected most of the people working on this project are LGTVs, tumblrites and/or orbiters of those both. (Hell, the original creators are a they/themite and a troon and it definitely shows). The character sheet itself is 11 pages of sheer autism coded by a single woman, they're dedicated though so I'll give them that.

Part of me wants for them to finish the thing so I can properly sterilize the game to make it as pozz free as possible and actually playable to everyone with common sense. However, with the sheer level of 'tism involved on it, I don't know if I'd be able to keep up with it or if it will only get worse as more progress they make on it. Any fellow kiwis curious to see just how deep this rabbit hole goes are free to check the spreadsheet itself linked on this post. Just a warning though: This thing was not designed with ease of use in mind, so be advised in case you actually want to take a crack at it.

Imo I don't think reworking gender-based moves is a bad idea for the sole reason that if I were to be a DM I'd find it incredibly fucking annoying to have to give genders to every single encounter. Pronouns for literal ice cream cones are dumb af though.

Also, if you don't want to work with the poz, there's already a couple PMD-themed TTRPG systems out there. I've actually DM'd a few groups with them myself. It's nothing fancy since it's more or less just a massive fanbook for 5e, but it's pretty thorough and has at least up to gen 6 in terms of statblocks and movesets.

As a DM, if gender becomes an issue all the sudden or is the players ask, flip a coin.
 
Finished playing Pokémon Emerald Enhanced for the second time and loved it, the quest system, the new areas, the new stuff to do and so on. Is there any other hack rom like this? I quite like the expansive part on the map. Also no kanto because I fucking hate it. It could be original map too

Polished Crystal is essentially just an enhanced version of Crystal with a few QoL/modernity updates (Fairy type, unlimited use TMs, Phys/Spec split, gen 4 evos and regional variants for old gen 1&2 mons, and so on) with a few new areas integrated from the PokeWalker into the game as well as some sidequests bringing back popular characters. There’s something like five different versions of it to sift through, though; faithful vs. type rebalanced versions of 2.2 and 3.0 as well as a fork of 3.0 that brings in even more stuff. Also: Kanto.

New maps and stories, on the other hand, hard to go wrong with classics like Prism or Unbound, both featuring my favorite little edge lord kaiju, Larvitar.

Never played prism or unbound, but does polished Crystal fix the kanto area as in making the fights decent and harder and fixing the map? Also what version would you reccommend?

I have a directory:

I should make a new entry... or just make a dedicated web page.

From looking at the data in the github, wild encounters in Kanto go up through the 60s so I’d assume trainer and gym fights also scale accordingly; Mt. Silver is no longer the only feasible place to grind endgame mons. I don’t know about fixing the map, but at least the Orange Islands and some new areas are in.

I’d recommend either the stable but more classic 3.0 “beta” which is essentially finished, or the more feature-rich but buggy 9bit which is under active development.

Do it. Be cool to have a directory of Kiwi Approved™ romhacks.

Speaking of, looking for something similar to Radical Red, but without the gen 4 and up Pokemon (harder, better AI, gen 4 attk/sp atk split). I do plan to play it but I also want an improved vanilla similar to Emerald Revelations.
