Looking for something to bridge the gap between OARS and whatever Game freak pukes out next. I haven't tried any rom hacks before, what would you guys recommend? What would you say is the absolute pinnacle Pokemon experience?

Liquid Crystal

A remake of Gen 2 on a Sapphire rom- I think. It was made before GF announced the Gen II remakes on the DS. I, personally, say that it's better than HG/SS.

Too bad LC throws in so much cringey self-insert shit it really ruins the game, along with the bad music. CrystalDust looks promising as a 1:1 remake like FRLG if only the creator would finish Kanto and the pokegear already.

>>23568667
All rom hacks are shit, OP. You might as well just replay an old game since so many hacks out there are super dark/edgy.

If you want an entirely new experience, you're going to get a lot of trash to some so-so stuff.

If you want a tweaked experience, look into "all Pokemon" romhacks. Blaze Black/Volt White (2), Sacred Gold/Storm Silver, Perfect Platinum and Origin Platinum, Expert Emerald, etc.

I still stand by Brown being a great ROMhack even if it's a bit dated in features.

/rhg/ used to have a recommendation pastebin; I probably need to update it for /heg/.

LaZ(creator of LC) is a fucking cringeworthy person in general. He's so oblivious to any decent advice that other people in the community end up doing shit for him. He's a webmaster of a site for romhackers that has serious safety issues and can be easily wrecked by a script kiddie. He's more busy pandering to cancerous circlejerking idiots that try to make the romhacking community the same elitist hellhole that was in 2007.

That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid; something overly edgy. I don't want to play Sinners:The game.
Anything where you get a choice between a majority of the starters?

No, LC is fuckin' awful. Too much fanwank stuff.
inb4 pure remakes are boring
But in the LC the self-made stuff just sucks.

If we talk about Johto remakes, then Crystal Dust is much better. Faithful remake, no idiotic stuff.

Though it'll never be perfect without HGSS graphics (yeah, it is possible, there was a hack on PC which imitated Platinum graphics very nicely, I can't refind it, though). In other words, a perfect Gen II remake is HGSS with all its flaws fixed.

Has anyone remade Kanto on DS, made an ASM Pokemon Thunder Yellow where Pikachu follows you or remade FR/LG and improved the visuals on a GBA ROM like all the HQ hacks yet?

This is pretty much just an improved vanilla version of Crystal. It's the same game with nothing changed, except you can get all Pokemon.

A must-have if you're emulating G/S/C.

That seems a bit too early.. other than that, looks like a great romhack.

Difficulty uppers and all pokemon hacks offer a surprisingly different experience with no edgy shit. Sacredgold and stormsilver are good examples. Shit anything by drayno is good in that regard.

As far as entirely new romhacks go there isn't much that's actually good. There are plenty with alright mechanics and gameplay but they seem to all be marred by DA tier fanfic writing. Reborn and insurgence have good gameplay by pokemon standards, but I wouldn't recommend them because they are gridmark, and not even well done gridmark.
It's really a try it and find out situation.

Spin offs are an option too. Pick up mystery dungeon if you can. If you have a flashcart or can actually fucking find it for a reasonable price. Ranger is a great series, don't emulate it though, it really doesn't play well with a mouse.

Gameplay in insurgence is incredible. Storywriting is complete shit though. It's a real shame.

Haven't played reborn so I can't speak on that. Agree on all counts with drayano, though if you do play his romhacks you need to read the documentation so you arent completely fucked.

There's two sacrifices, and it doesn't get darker than that. It's pretty edgy, but you're exaggerating.

While we are at it... Can I ask what's a good flashcart? I want to emulate DS and GBA on the 3DS. THere's something called SuperCard DS Two that does it, but it's out of stock or too expensive. Any ideas? Must work in 3ds and emulate GBA and DS. Dont care for emulating 3ds.
