About This ROM Hack

Pokémon Fantasia is a GBA ROM hack that merges the traditional FireRed gameplay with elements inspired by Pokémon GO. The hack allows players to experience Pokémon battles and exploration in a way that blends augmented reality concepts with the GBA platform.

Players can toggle a “GO Mode” that merges fantasy and reality, simulating a Pokémon GO-style experience, while still progressing through a structured storyline. The game divides the plot into separate in-game days, each with unique quests and interactions, creating a hybrid experience of Pokémon adventure and daily objectives.


Story Overview

The story follows a passionate Pokémon fan whose dream of entering the Pokémon world becomes reality through a special device. The player is able to merge the fantasy world of Pokémon with the real world, navigating between both.

  • Each day presents quests and challenges that must be completed before progressing to the next day.
  • Players interact with both Pokémon and real-world inspired objects/events.
  • The ultimate goal is to become the best Pokémon trainer while balancing responsibilities in the real world.
