About This ROM Hack

Super Mariomon is Too Many Productions’ most ambitious project to date, blending the core mechanics of Pokémon with the worlds, characters, and charm of the Mario franchise. Instead of catching Pokémon, players “capture” characters and creatures from the Mushroom Kingdom, exploring a completely original region designed specifically for this crossover experience.

Built on Pokémon Emerald, the hack heavily modernizes gameplay with extensive quality-of-life features, optional difficulty systems, and custom visuals throughout nearly every aspect of the game.


Story Overview

Princess Peach announces a grand game across the Mushroom Kingdom: the first participant to collect all eight Power Stars will be granted a wish. You, the player, set off on this lighthearted adventure alongside Professor E. Gadd, racing against Bowser—who has plans of his own.

The narrative is intentionally simple and playful, focusing more on exploration, freedom, and fun rather than heavy drama. While Bowser serves as the primary antagonist, the experience is designed to feel open-ended, encouraging players to explore the Mushroom Kingdom at their own pace.


Key Features

  • New Region: The Mushroom Kingdom is a fully original region with unique towns, interiors, and world themes.
  • Capture System: 151 Mario-themed “Captures” replace traditional Pokémon.
  • Post-Game Content: A fully implemented post-game with additional challenges and activities.
  • Gameplay Customization: Optional systems such as level caps, level scaling, EV disabling, and infinite or cap-based Rare Candies.
  • Built-in Nuzlocke Mode: Optional challenge mode integrated directly into the game (credits to TheXaman).
  • Modern QoL Features: EXP Share availability early, fast text, dialog skip on repeat playthroughs, and party-based evolution fixes.
  • Visual Overhaul: Custom UI, item sprites, overworld tilesets, and menus, with interiors adapted from Emerald and FRLG where appropriate.
  • Custom Soundtrack: Extensive Mario-inspired MIDI soundtrack with full credits provided.

Known Bugs & Issues

  • Two quests are currently incomplete.
  • Rare edge cases, such as Captain Toad becoming stuck can be fixed by switching to him and selecting RESET from the menu.
  • No additional major bugs are currently documented
