About This ROM Hack

Pokémon Ultra FireRed XD is a chaotic and humorous spin-off of the popular Clover hack, designed to be a nostalgic yet wild experience. It features Pokémon from Generations 1–8 alongside many fakemon and meme-inspired content. The game heavily modifies encounter rates, shiny Pokémon availability, and Mega Evolution mechanics. While built on the vanilla FireRed engine, it introduces permanent Mega Evolutions, large Pokémon variety per route, and intentionally unbalanced gameplay for a comedic and unpredictable challenge.

 


Story Overview

The game begins with Gym Leader Kanye East of Esfores Gym lying sick after losing a battle. In his coma, he dreams of Kanto, but this is no ordinary Kanto. Meme-inspired trainers, bizarre Mega Evolutions, and unexpected Pokémon abound. The story is mostly a narrative excuse to revisit Kanto while offering absurd and chaotic gameplay experiences, with the main focus on nostalgia, humor, and extreme variety in Pokémon encounters.



Key Features

  • High Shiny Rate: Encounters with shiny Pokémon are extremely common.
  • Route Variety: Up to 12 different Pokémon per route, offering maximum diversity.
  • Mega Evolution Mechanics: Any Pokémon with a Mega Form gains it permanently at level 50, though with a reduced movepool.
  • Generations 1–8 Pokémon: Includes Pokémon from all generations, excluding those intentionally removed.
  • Humorous and Meme Content: Trainers, names, and scenarios are intentionally absurd.
  • Unbalanced Gameplay: The game is designed to be chaotic and unpredictable, with unusual encounters and mechanics.



Known Bugs & Issues

  • Some Pokémon may not have proper moves or abilities due to engine limitations.
  • Gameplay can be unbalanced, intentionally creating difficulty spikes or absurd battle scenarios.
  • Vanilla FireRed engine limits prevent certain modern features from functioning fully.
