About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Sinnoh Quest is a feature-rich Pokémon Ruby ROM hack created to fulfill a specific goal: a complete hack that includes all Sinnoh Pokémon while remaining fully playable from start to finish.
Frustrated by incomplete or limited hacks, the developer built this project to offer a complete experience with a massive Pokémon roster, including not just Sinnoh Pokémon but also a large portion of Pokémon from earlier generations.
The hack focuses less on story changes and more on gameplay expansion, challenge improvements, and post-game content, making it ideal for players who want a fully complete, content-heavy Pokémon experience without waiting for updates.
Story Overview
While the core Ruby storyline structure remains, the adventure is reshaped around expanded Pokémon variety and new League-related events. A major addition is the Paradise Islands event arc, which must be completed before challenging the Elite Four, adding an extra narrative and gameplay layer before the final battles.
The focus is less on rewriting the entire plot and more on delivering a feature-heavy journey with new encounters, facilities, and challenges.
Key Features
- 385 Pokémon Available: All Sinnoh Pokémon are included along with roughly 85% of Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn Pokémon, placed strategically throughout the game world.
- All Legendaries and 12 Starters Obtainable: Three starters from each major region are available, and every legendary Pokémon in the hack can be captured.
- All Pokémon Are Catchable: No version exclusives or unobtainable entries block Pokédex completion.
- Paradise Islands League Event: A brand-new event arc tied to the Pokémon League must be cleared before facing the Elite Four.
- Completely New Safari Zone: The Safari Zone has been redesigned to offer new Pokémon and exploration opportunities.
- Quiz Masters System: Special NPCs test the player’s knowledge in subjects like science and English, rewarding correct answers with items.

- Post-League Battle Facilities: Four contest-style battle centers (such as TM Center and Berry Center) allow 6v6 matches after becoming Champion to further train Pokémon.

- Diamond/Pearl Attacks Added: Moves such as Aura Sphere, Dark Pulse, and Close Combat are implemented.
