i downloaded this, great hack, and i found a shiny rattata lol.
but there are a few things i don't like about this hack as well...........like, e.g. when ur in the forest, it's just way too big, since u won't be able to get repel at the start of the game, it's annoying that u keep walking around and keep encountering pokemon, while also hitting a few dead ends or wrong turns and it's just a big waste of time and really annoys me in that place......
another thing is how u have several trainers there as well, which makes it even more annoying because the pokemon centre is far away and u end up going back there at least once or twice and when u come back to the forest, u have to go through all that annoying encounters and all that crap again...........it's just very annoying.
And maybe it's just me, but i find Growlithe lvl up slow, my murkrow gained the same amount of exp but lvled up way faster.........which is also one of the problem, for me at least, that the trainers are a bit too strong. Maybe it's cuz i didn't do as much training in this game but i really hate exp grinding against wild pokemon, fighting normal trainers is much easier but u can't even have an easy fight against them at the start, which makes it hard to train............maybe u wanna adjust that? And i really think sticking to having 3 starters is probably better, even if u like fire type pokemon in ur hack as the starter, at least let ppl have 3 choices, not just one..........
oh and one thing i REALLY REALLY HATE about is how u changed the character's hair style, it just.......looks weird and doesn't suit it......well that's just IMO.
Lastly, most hacks i've seen and played are almost the same, as in:
1. changing storylines
2. changing maps
3. add new events etc
but they're not really that different afterall, some are really fun to play like DJG's Ruby Destiny, while some are also quite fun like Shiny Gold but u pretty much know what to do already so it's pretty much a re-make, but i like hacks that are totally different, as in a lot more custom maps and other custom stuff, which is probably y i like Ruby Destiny better than most other hacks cuz it has more custom maps and stuff changed than others, except a few towns that are still based on the normal RUBY Version but otherwise it's great fun........
anyway my point is, most hacks seemed the same, sure they are "CUSTOM" hacks but there're just a few things changed, that's all, u pretty much expect those points i mentioned above or maybe a few others, but i've never seen anything that actually makes it TOTALLY different or totally fun, so maybe here's a good suggestion for u:
1. Try to change the bike to something else, like how Pkmn Quartz had skateboard
2. Try to change surf into a surfboard or something, so u don't actually ride on pkmn
and a few others i forgot and can't think of rite now, but ya just have totally different storyline and a lot more custom stuff will really make this hack look awesome...........and maybe have a better translated english too lol. Anyways most other hacks are already finished or already far into the finishing stages, while some others still haven't even released a beta yet, so that's y i'm giving u these suggestions and i hope u can implement into ur hack and make it really awesome in the future, keep up the good work!
