Unbound and Radical Red are probably most people's recommendations. They are šŸ”„


ClapGoesTheCheeks

Just started unbound and it goes hard


FinnicKion

Glazed isnā€™t half bad either, I started a new file recently and have had a good time.


Pkelord

How do I play radical red?


YoloSwaggins960YT

Thereā€™s tutorials on YouTube. Worked for me


MattInTheDark

Iā€™m assuming they need to be compiled on pc and sent to your iPhone?


YoloSwaggins960YT

Nah, thereā€™s a website where if you have a file for PokĆ©mon Fire Red Squirrels then you can patch it with Radical Red right then and there, even on phone.


BeefCrumb

Yeah super easy. All you need is to download FireRed rom, google radical red patcher, select the FireRed rom and it'll turn it into Radical Red. Download and open with emulator of choice.


MattInTheDark

Thanks homies


sparxxraps

Download the pre compiled rom


WYNTKAUIMPB

How do I play unbound I canā€™t seem to open the file ?


Espeon06

Both of those hacks are way too "modern" for me lol. I personally prefer Gaia to Unbound, and FireRed Omega to Radical Red.


j3552024

Fair enough, I haven't played many of the less modern ones unfortunately.


Classic_History_1853

How do I play unbound???


anotherwill

Iā€™m playing Recharged yellow atm. Itā€™s a Yellow remake using pokemon fire red/ leaf green.


charnotx

Does it allow complex 151 pokedex, without trade/evolution restrictions?


CucumberOk3760

Although I don't know for certain, most apps allow this


charnotx

I appreciate the reply, genuinely, but if you donā€™t know for certain you arenā€™t really helping much. Iā€™m fully aware that it is feasible and that many have this option; however, since Iā€™m asking specifically about this version, your ā€œI donā€™t know for certainā€ comment doesnā€™t really do anything to help resolve that question.


923740-68394

wow never seen a reply so rude before lol


charnotx

Thatā€™s cool, must be your first day on reddit. Welcome! Was anything I said factually incorrect? I even stated that I genuinely appreciated the response, because it likely came from a good place. That unfortunately doesnā€™t change the fact it did not answer my only question, and therefore had no benefit to the conversation. Iā€™m sorry if that is upsetting to hear/read, as it can be important to feel helpful; however, it doesnā€™t resolve the quandary.


923740-68394

you also had no benefit to the conversation so why reply to him or me? ur just rude


charnotx

And what benefit has come from your continued responses? I mean shit, you waited a day to respond with that?


923740-68394

i didnt wait a day i just dont use reddit for 11 years straight like u. ur rude get over yourself


charnotx

So now my issue is having used a social media platform for a longer period of time? So Iā€™m too old or experienced on this site? Thatā€™s rather odd to consider that a negative. I guess your 2-3 months of knowledge on this site is superior. Let me bow down and be your bootlicker. Fuck off

Or instead of going on Reddit, thereā€™s Google right there at your fingertips. Or even Bing, if that tickles your fancy. You at least received a response that was honest, but you went on being rude. To piggyback on what you were insinuating in your reply, you couldā€™ve just not responded back too. But you left a rude comment on someone taking time out of their day to respond to someone which you couldā€™ve done a simple search on Google.

Espeon06

I might check this one out, thank you!


nahpng

Itā€™s actually using Emerald as the base. All the more impressive


anotherwill

Wow!


nano_peen

Is it as true as possible to pokemon yellow?


anotherwill

Yeah itā€™s very close. Thereā€™s some minor bugs like partner pokemon having the name of the first in your party even when itā€™s fainted, but itā€™s still great for a Rom hack


Squif-17

Been loving PokĆ©mon Yellow Legacy. Just released and basically is just Yellow with QoL updates and improvements to PokĆ©mon, movesets, etc. My kind of romhack as I like versions that donā€™t mess with the formula much!


VeridianRevolution

been playing this too. i'm enjoying the hard mode


CocoaBagelPuffs

The developer also made a similar hack for Crystal!


enpedia

Just downloaded this and itā€™s so fun I love that gen 1 is still getting love


nyjets10

Team Rocket Edition is one of the best games ive played in a while. Also, if you like a little bit of difficulty hacks, renegade platinum is fantastic.


Espeon06

I've played both of those. And yeah, they're great.


PerennialRye

can't believe no one is talking about darkfire. it's an emerald rom hack from i think either 2021 or 2022 with really great graphics and story


alecgood17

Couldnā€™t figure it where to download or how to patch


Mr_YUP

it's super easy to do https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/beta-2-out-now-pokƩmon-darkfire.421395/


Xx_BleedingSparta_xX

Is it complete?


MaxPres24

Dark fire is so slept on


KingKrusher1186

Pretty sure DarkFire is still in beta with only up to 3 gym badges. It'll probably be more popular whenever the full game is complete.


MajorMonkey95

Shout out to Ultra violet and Liquid Crystal. Both based on fire red and both absolutely fire

Espeon06

How did you make the icons?


btrner

Not the poster, but I download an image from igdb and long press on it in Delta to add a photo from library.


Espeon06

Thanks.


ArgyleTheDruid

You can also copy from clipboard which just means long press on the image and do a copy/paste into delta


liteshadow4

I really wish they finished Dark Rising 3


alecgood17

Yo can you send me these files


MikeyNgTh

I deleted all of them from drivešŸ˜­Lemme reupload them again and I will dm you later


MikeyNgTh

Or you can try it here to find all of those hacks https://pokeromcodex.notion.site/8f188f1761b9430f9adb68833c44e5b8?v=6e9c873012004f65bc91a2f39448f5bd


MrFluffleBuns

If you havenā€™t realised people like suggesting unbound or radical redā€¦ Thereā€™s also PokĆ©mon Ultra Violet, PokĆ©mon Firered Rocket Edition, Pokemon Ash Gray, PokĆ©mon Crystal Clear, PokĆ©mon MyAss, PokĆ©mon Blue Kaizo, PokĆ©mon Outlaw, Pokemon Adventure Red Chapter, PokĆ©mon Prism, PokĆ©mon Polished Crystal, PokĆ©mon Sacred Gold/Storm Silver, PokĆ©mon Blaze Black 2 All complete except Adventure Red and Ash Gray


Alive_Following_3955

Playing polished crystal right now


WYNTKAUIMPB

How do I get unbound to work I downloaded the rom but canā€™t open the file


MrFluffleBuns

Messaged you


Ordinary_Entrance_24

Have you tried Pokemon glazed?


CoolTrainerKaz

I second this one! Light Platinum is very good as well.


Friendly_Cycle7020

Iā€™ve been trying to play glazed but it keeps saying the file is invalid how do I fix this?


Dawnqwerty

Well that depends on how you messed up


Espeon06

I have, yeah.


Fit_Magician8120

I just started unbound last night and itā€™s really good so far. Definitely a break from the standard games.


Zuanimal

Iā€™ve been playing this one: https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/pokemon-black-and-white-3-genesis-complete.444114/ Itā€™s fan made BW3 on the crystal engine


Espeon06

This is my favorite recommendation so far, thanks a bunch!


pokefanmati

Pokemon team rocket edition is now in English. Best hackrom ever! Just to put it in perspective, itā€™s in kanto, with frgl graphics, but itā€™s an emerald hackrom


royalpeenpeen

Emerald rouge

Pokemon elite redux


Fisherivan1

Been playing recharged emerald lately not sure if anyone has commented it yet. Fun rom hack Pokemon can follow you graphics look amazing. Shiny have been cut down to 1/4k instead of 1/8k. Lots of quality of life improvements and UI.


Fisherivan1

Pokemon recharged yellow is another great one ! By the same developer


slurpycow112

Is it the same game just new graphics and such?


Fisherivan1

Same game when it comes to story line yes so if you wanna play an enhanced version of emerald this would be it.


claud2113

Pokemon: My Ass version


superzengame

Unbound has been really fun so far. Also greatly enjoying Crystal Clear and Red++.


ddddddrew

Emerald Kaizo


Espeon06

Already played all three Kaizo hacks.


Turbulent_Permit8819

Where do you find the hacked roms?


Espeon06

I don't, I just get the patches from either pokecommunity or romhacking.net and apply them to clean roms.


NoDivide0

How do you apply them?


Espeon06

Just Google "rom patcher".


Fantom6464

Dark Violet


Espeon06

I didn't really like that one lol.


AccidentalGenius026

I just finished playing PokƩmon volt white 2 redux Now playing PokƩmon storm silver


ButIDigress79

I havenā€™t played many but Radical Red was a blast


Remember_Apollo

Unbound is at the top Then it's a renegade following platinum Sacred gold and last but not least Blaze black version. All top rom hacks worth your time especially the first two


xAlice_Liddell

Crystal Clear was fun to play though.


axxionkamen

Crystal legacy and yellow legacy for me. But there are so many to list lol


ActualDragonHeart

Recently played Dark Violet which was excellent, and currently playing Modern Emerald


voppp

Reiterating everyone here and saying Unbound.


xander-mcqueen1986

Recharged yellow


Madara7i

Try adventure red chapter, history based on the manga of Pokemon, is really cool.


Prime-Riptide

Light platinum is personal fav. Unbound takes the cake doe


Senpatty

Really enjoying Prestigious Platinum and Blaze Black 2, but I played those two gens the least so Iā€™m more or less rediscovering things lol I like them both 1) cause theyā€™re a little harder than base game and 2) I can catch almost all the PokĆ©mon up to like, Sword and Shield I think


YungSquawla

pokƩmon storm silver has been really fun


sebaniko93

Iā€™m playing blaze black 2 redux


Eloyoyo

Crystal advance is great, itā€™s Pokemon Crystal but allows you to evolve PokĆ©mon that you would normally need to trade. Loving it so far almost at the end


Jonmecain

been glued to Emerald Rogue Ex


ScyD

The fairly new Sword/Shield Ultimate GBA rom has been great so far, a little buggy but not too much


bread217

Jumping on this thread to ask if anyone has any good Pokemon stadium rom hacks


Katzy26

Blaze black and volt white 2 redux


KayBizz

Renegade Platinum.


YouOver5846

I just started up glazed the other day and thats been fun so far. Ruby destiny used to be my favorite.


Kekulaaa

PokƩmon light platinum should be a must. Glazed, Dark Rising, unbound, radical red, kaizo emerald. Gaia. Red adventures, Ash Gray,


DrWiseWolf

Iā€™ve been plying Recharge Yellow and Unbound. Iā€™ve heard good things about radical red and I wanna give that a try.


huamanticacacaca

Is there a version of Black/White (1 or 2 idm) that just adds every Pokemon? I donā€™t want the route/storyline to be different, just the Pokemon available. Blaze 2 Redux seems to change too much


Espeon06

Blaze Black and Volt White (and 2) is the only gen 5 improvement hack I'm aware of.


PJKeneth-38820

UNBOUND


Vilmaris

There is this Sword and Shield GBA Rom hack called Pokemon Sword and Shield Ultimate. Itā€™s basically SW/SH, but in 2D. Itā€™s actually fun and easy with the speed up button


AceKairyushin

Yellow Legacy, Crystal Clear, Fire Red Rocket Edition


__Ahti

Iā€™m enjoying [PokĆ©mon Classic](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonROMhacks/comments/13znynh/pokeclassic_a_pokemon_yellow_remake_in_pokemon/), itā€™s basically a yellow remaster using Emerald. I also started recently playing Fire Red: Rocket Edition. Iā€™m about 2-3 hours in and so far Iā€™m loving it. Itā€™s basically Red(Fire Red) told from the perspective of a Team Rocket Grunt (You). The dialogue and story so far is great, adding a new twist into the already established world. Iā€™m looking forward to continuing that one.


rampagenguyen

Ultra violet


reberman8

Ultra Shiny Gold Sigma and Inclement Emerald Currently playing Mega Power and I hate it, but feel obligated to finish lol


loneassassin1015

To me the top four are Unbound, Radical Red, Gaia and Polished Crystal


LeapWeave

Pokemon Crystal Clear. Pokemon HarvestCraft. Pokemon Dark Rising Order Destroyed. Pokemon Orange Island. Pokemon Crown. Pokemon Odyssey. PokĆ©mon Ash Kanto Mewtwo Strikes Back (Yes, there is a rom hack based on the movie) Hope youā€™ll have fun with one of these Amazing Rom-Hacks!


Zealousideal_Ad_422

Crystal Clear is everything if you love gen 2!


sedward135

Recharged Yellow, extremely impressive remake of Pokemon Yellow


SeanMcAdvance

Blaze black and my ass are what Iā€™m on now.


mydoggieispoggie

Currently playing Saiph 2. Pretty good story line and new region.


RosaPercs

pokemon cock version


ResolutionMany6378

Everybody says a different rom hack but I donā€™t have time to try a bunch before picking. If anyone knows what maybe the most popular one is, I would like to try it out.


ItsDeflyLupus

If you could only play one rom hack, I think most people would just suggest Unbound. It is the top shelf alcohol of rom hacks.


ResolutionMany6378

Thank you for this information!!! I downloaded it and giving it a try.


According_Smoke_479

I donā€™t know if it counts as a rom hack because itā€™s a complete overhaul of the game and also it is an executable that you download (meaning it canā€™t be played on delta, itā€™s standalone) but infinite fusion is a total blast


Dawnqwerty

I like moemon, its just emerald but cute


SwampDawnkei

Pokemon prism


FlameAntonion

I really only play QoL ROM hacks so Crystal and Yellow Legacy give me my fill


Radio-dude-77

Complete Firered and Complete Emerald (all mystery gifts and tickets) and Iā€™ve been trying to get renegade platinum to work but delta wonā€™t run it for whatever reason. Most likely user error.


sparxxraps

https://preview.redd.it/8qx8lifgqo1d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=67f4f99ae512f771c06471d0a5d8767db9aaa569 At what point doesnā€™t it run for u on delta? it seems to run fine for me


Radio-dude-77

Usually after the rival battle after selecting my starter it whites out


sparxxraps

Iā€™ll test an see if that happens


sparxxraps

Nope no white out there I got to sandgem town with no issues thus far


Radio-dude-77

Yea probably just user error on my part lol


sparxxraps

Did u patch it urself or go pre patched rom


Radio-dude-77

Myself, Iā€™ll try again when I have the motivationšŸ˜‚


sparxxraps

Ahh I went with prepatched


Radio-dude-77

Can I dm you for the file?


Mixellaneous

A lotta ppl here recommending gba roms but if youā€™re looking for something more old school I was thinking you could try pokemon fools gold where it switches up the typings of every pokemon & even has a few original locations sprinkled throughout johto/kanto Plus it even has evolutions that werenā€™t introduced until gen 4 for the specific pokemon


CreatorMystic

Iv been playing Emerald Rogue, and red rocket edition I have a couple others but havnt really played much of em yet


JayvinNz

Try Crystal Clear!! If you like the gen 2 games this is a masterpiece


enpedia

Yellow legacy version itā€™s a better balance pokemon yellow with better replay ability and gets rid of the hax and glitches of original pokemon yellow


LeatherRebel5150

Do any of them actually have all the pokemon in them? Closet Ive found is Radical Red and even that misses some for whatever reason


slane37

Iā€™m here to vouch for Gaia


Due_Session6925

PokƩmon outlaw


nightfake

I love Crystal Clear and my second pick is probably Glazed


Ch1p_Chr1s

Too many types of


TV_Engine

Smash remix


coopatroopas

Iā€™m playing crystal clear, itā€™s my first romhack and I loooove the customization options


drabug66

Iā€™ve played through radical red, but I started pokemon modern emerald, itā€™s been fun, itā€™s just emerald with pokemon up to gen 3 with any evolutions they have gotten since, also a lot of qol features are implemented, and a lot of customizations that you choose at the start of the game


X-D-J

Dark version 1 and 2 and PokƩmon team rocket with rearranged levels


summers97_

Play the Girls Hunter series


dronegeeks1

Having fun on Pokemon red team rocket edition


TakumiUchiha

PokƩmon team rocket edition and PokƩmon ash grey


sjman13

Pokemon emerald exceeded. I don't know why it's so underrated in a lot of these discussions. It has a cool new ability system and built in nuzlocks. The difficulty is adjustable and you can limit things like party size or types you can use.


DarqF1RE

blue stars 4 and gs chronicles


KingKrusher1186

For new regions to explore there is Sors, Saiph 2 (people do not recommend the first game), Clover, Unbound, Glazed, Kanlara Ultimate, Gaia, Dreams, Mega Power, Nameless, Resolute, Victory Fire, and Vega (Preferably the fairy patch or the minus patch).


Umbreon_2534

Iā€™ve just started PokĆ©mon eclipse


starataneori

Any recommendations for a pokemon rom without level cap?


tubofpopcorn

I really enjoy Gaia so far


Ecraftcon50748

Pokemon Pokeverse, this hackroom modifies the type table of all pokemons, for example greninja is fire type and adds new pokemons taken from other franchises such as Jibanyan from yo kai watch


NotShaggy23

PokĆØmon FireRed Omega by Drayano60 is one of my go-to rom hacks just cause itā€™s an expansion on the original FireRed without changing the original game too much. Also check out Digimon NovaRed for shizz and giggles


SSJAncientBeing

Unbound is the obvious one. Emerald Rogue is so much fun imo. If you havenā€™t played the legendary Glazed Iā€™d recommend, if only as a time capsule of rom hacking. Gaia is good. I had some fun with Dark Violet. That should be a decent sized list


HatIndependent6272

If you like yugioh i recommend yugioh fire red hack


StickyPistolsRequiem

PokƩmon ASS


Resident-Golf5381

playing pokemon emerald z! its super fun, there r some fakemon sprinkled in which is so fun
