Finished Shin Blue Version the other day, and it's definitely my favorite Gen 1 romhack now, it is the most polished and customizable version of the early games that doesn't mute or cover up Gen 1's special flavor, a vanilla enhancement hack for the ages: backloggd.com/u/noah_k/rev...

There is an indescribable magic to Gen 1. Or maybe it is describable: Pokémon types signal their use-cases, move pools are arduous and limited but make every Pokémon unique, item management is cumbers...

I have discovered that making ads is fun. Here's an ad for my pokemon rom hack as if it were right out of a 90s gaming magazine.

I don’t have anything special or unique to add to the ongoing insanity but I did start playing Shin Pokémon Red & it’s delightful. I can finally capture all 151 original Pokémon without trading, I’m over the moon

I thought this Shin Pokémon romhack had a really interesting new distribution of Pokémon, but I accidentally turned on the randomizer and didn't realize it. LOL

Coming along really well so far. Biggest challenge is having enough time in-between vblank interrupts. But I did some optimization on the default overworld functions and it's now running pretty smooth on the GBC's 2x CPU speed mode.

Coming Soon™ to Shin Pokemon. This is not Gen-2 colorization. More of an enhanced "what if" colorization showing what's possible by building off of International Yellow's color palette code. As in what was possible if the localizers had way more time.

I have yet to see anyone clear a hard-mode nuzlocke of Shin. It can get pretty brutal.

To all #pokemonromhack spriters and artists. Duty calls.
had a dream last night that someone made a pokemon romhack that added an evolution for politoed but it was just a heracross wearing a pink short-sleeved shirt with "GAY MAN SEX" printed on the back. i don't remember anything else from the dream but that one image is so vivid in my mind it's haunting

While somewhat rare, I always love it when a pokemon rom hack has its own retro-style manual or player's guide.
So I made one for Shin Pokemon.

Some people make physical carts of their favorite pokemon rom hacks. It’s a neat little trinket to stick into your gameboy. I went a little further than most.

Did a little project and recorded it. Figured it would be useful for people who want to make a custom box.

once again recommending the Shin Pokémon Red romhack for an 'enhanced vanilla' gen1 playthrough. I did it a little while back and it's a great way to experience that game. github.com/jojobear13/s...

Just wrapped up the final post-game challenge of the Shin Pokémon Red romhack, and I can 100% say that if you're looking for a vanilla++ gen1 experience I HIGHLY recommend it!

Hard mode, the QoL, all mons, and cool post-game are so fun but never make it not feel like RBY
