About This ROM Hack

Pokémon Edición ZEI is a Spanish-language ROM hack that delivers a completely fresh Pokémon experience built on the foundation of Pokémon Ruby. Instead of reusing the familiar Hoenn journey, this project introduces an entirely new region known as ZEI, paired with a unique storyline and updated presentation inspired by Nintendo DS-era Pokémon games.

The hack aims to strike a balance between classic GBA gameplay mechanics and modern visual appeal, making it appealing for players who want something new without losing the traditional Pokémon feel. Graphics upgrades, custom events, and a curated Pokédex from Generations 1–3 help reshape the experience while still keeping it grounded in the classic formula.

Since the project is currently in beta, some content may still be incomplete or subject to change, but the foundation already showcases a strong focus on exploration, mystery, and narrative-driven progression.


Story Overview

The story begins in a town within the ZEI Region. Professor Beth, a researcher studying Pokémon and their environments, begins receiving reports of unusual Pokémon behavior across the region. To investigate these anomalies, she enlists the help of Professor Oak. Players assume the role of a young Pokémon trainer tasked with exploring the ZEI Region, uncovering mysteries, and reporting back to Professor Beth while aiming to reach the Pokémon League.
