About This ROM Hack

Pokémon SpongeBob is a small-scale novelty ROM hack developed for the Game Boy Color, built on the classic framework of Pokémon Red. Rather than introducing a new region or storyline, this hack focuses on a single, humorous gameplay twist: replacing one of the original starter Pokémon with SpongeBob himself.

There is no altered or expanded story in Pokémon SpongeBob. The narrative, dialogue, events, and progression remain unchanged from vanilla Pokémon Red. The only difference is the identity and typing of one starter Pokémon.
