About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Subacquea is an Italian Pokémon Ruby ROM hack set in a completely original underwater world inspired by the legend of Atlantis. The hack introduces a new region, original characters, custom scripts, and Pokémon from later generations alongside Fakemon inspired by the unused Pokémon Gold beta designs.
The project focuses heavily on its setting and atmosphere, building a world where humans and Pokémon adapted to life beneath the ocean after a catastrophic event caused by a Mythical Pokémon long ago.
The hack also includes several gameplay updates such as the Fairy type, reusable TMs, team-wide experience sharing, and Pokémon from up to Generation 8.
Story Overview
Thousands of years ago, a Mythical Pokémon unleashed storms and earthquakes powerful enough to sink Atlantis beneath the sea.
Realizing the destruction it had caused, the Pokémon used all of its remaining power to allow the people and Pokémon of Atlantis to survive underwater. Over time, Atlantis evolved into a fully developed region isolated from the surface world.
The story of Pokémon Subacquea takes place within this underwater civilization, where life continued far away from the outside world
