About This ROM Hack
Pokémon Lavender is a horror-themed Pokémon ROM hack developed on Pokémon FireRed, created with the explicit goal of delivering a dark, unsettling experience rarely explored in traditional Pokémon gameplay.
This hack is best approached as a story-driven horror experience, not a traditional Pokémon adventure.
Story Overview
Pokémon Lavender features two separate campaigns, each inspired by well-known Pokémon creepypastas:
- Lavender Town Syndrome
- Hypno’s Lullaby
Each campaign explores disturbing reinterpretations of Pokémon lore, blending psychological horror, eerie environments, and unsettling narrative themes. The story leans heavily into fear, unease, and mystery rather than heroic progression or league challenges.
