Hey everyone, recently I had the urge to start making a Generation 1 hack. In this hack, I plan on changing the rosters of each trainer in the game and they're going to have stronger Pokemon. I don't want to make a carbon copy of Pokemon Blue Kaizo, where the Pokemon are super challenging but I want to make Red/Blue a bit more difficult than it is. So far I've changed the rival's starter to be at level 6 instead of 5. I'm going to change some of the level up movesets for Pokemon such as giving Bulbasaur Absorb over Leech Seed, and giving Squirtle Water Gun first instead of Bubble. As for Charmander, I was thinking about giving it Smokescreen since theoretically it should be able to spit out smoke. (Though it will learn Ember still at the same level.) Brock also has a level 16 Golem now. I need to figure out the rest of the trainer rosters. I will be sharing updates here, and when the time comes to release it I'll add a patch so you can play it!
Oh nice, I wouldn't know how to make a rom hack, but I hope it goes well for you.
