Nintendo and Game Freak execs have wet dreams about developing a Pokemon game this interesting.

They haven't iterated on their formula since the first game. The 3D version could have been a 2D re-skin.

Gamefreak has absolutely 0 drive or desire to make an actual improved pokemon game, they have been carried by the IP for the past 20 years. Now if they get some competition... Maybe they will start dreaming

My son just said the same thing. Game Freak are actually going to have to do some work!

I honestly wouldn't mind if they remade their 3D games into the GBA/DS era 2D style. It'd look better and more appropriate to the gameplay

Radical Red is a Fire Red romhack that brings the new Pokemon and mechanics to the old GBA art style. It's the standard gen 1 story for the most part, but there are a ton of new features and a little story deviation at some points.

I definitely recommend it for old Pokemon fans that are disappointed in the newer entries.

Does it require a flash cart with clock or on any old flash cart? Got a link to the project? I'm paranoid for fishing sites when searching for romhack projects on the search engines

It doesn't require a clock, you get the ability to manually switch between day, dusk, and night very early.
