I cannot remember the guy I use to talk too about ROM hacks in here but it look like Drayano is wrapping up his largest ROM hack to date.

sgss v2?? whats the key new features of it

Yeah it's called Aurora Crystal now. This game is huge and he's added Gen 5-9 to it. He's even got someone to do overworld sprites for their following animations, Implemented fairy typing correctly into Gen 4, He's also giving every Pokemon post Gen 4 a battle animation, Trainers have all been reworked to include them, He's got a new title screen and added features from Gen 5-9.

He went quiet on social media, but his GitHub has all his updates and "what's left to do". Seems like it's almost done. His what's left to do file only has things like:

• Find a away to make Arceus obtainable
• fix overworld sprites for Gen 9 pokemon (currently only sprigatito has a overworld sprite)
• balance rematch elite four
• rebalance rematch trainers in Kanto
• balance rematch gyms
• playtesting.

So now it's just a matter of time before he pop back up on Twitter with a release date.

Probably me, i change my name and avi alot. We talked about the new Drayano stuff last year or so

This is great news cause I was just starting to get impatient for it

that's insane, it sounds like a dream come true for DS era fans

i can't wait

We could get an announcement anytime soon hopefully as a Christmas or new years gift.😮‍💨

Also,

There's been rumblings of a random update on Z-A this month. All the pokemon "leakers" are saying something. Take it with a grain of salt. 2024 has been the year of exposing all these leakers as frauds.

Seems like he's even added Mega Evolution to Gen 4

Damn!

What’s yall predictions on the typing of the cover art legendaries for ZA

It's only one game and it probably just be a portrait painting of the protagonist and the starters like Legends: Arceus.

I can't wait to see this man. Did you see all the new Gen 5 ROM hacks? They look amazing.

haven't seen many outside of drayano's, put me on!! what are some good ones to download

Some of these are still in development but have betas. Infinite fusions is completed.

that last one looks insane, that's a beautiful remake of sinnoh

thanks for the links and recommendations. i'd heard of infinite fusion, hadn't played yet and now i will, what an insane concept

Broooo infinite fusion is fun as hell. You can get lost just making combos for hours.

This is huge

Where do I find more info

Can't find s*** on reddit

Jesus does this mean we could get some radical red/firered enhancement type s*** for gen 4 romhacks soon ?

Synapse will likely be a live service multiplayer dedicated game. So hype

Yup just a matter of time

So f***ing in for serious soul silver

Imagine a pokemon unbound game in Gen V engine
