About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Venotide is a FireRed-based ROM hack that keeps the original Kanto storyline intact while significantly expanding gameplay systems, Pokémon variety, and battle mechanics.
Unlike many ROM hacks that focus on introducing a completely new region or rewriting the story, Venotide primarily builds on the existing FireRed structure. The core journey through Kanto remains familiar, but the experience is heavily modified through the addition of Fakemon, new evolutions, and modern battle mechanics such as Z-Moves.
The hack appears to prioritize gameplay variety and team-building depth over narrative changes. However, due to limited documentation, some systems and overall completion status remain unclear or possibly experimental.
