Pokémon FireRed Version: PokéMetroid Gameboy Advance

This hack substitutes the starter evolution lines for:

- Metroid, Gamma Metroid and Omega Metroid
- Birdie, Misterious Creature and Ridley
- X Parasite, Core X and Barrier X
*All starters can now be caught in the wild

And the legendary pokémon for:

-Phantoon (Power plant)
-Draygon (Seafoam Islands)
-Kraid (Mt. Ember)
-Mother Brain (Cerulean Cave)


They all have completely revamped movesets, types, base stats, abilities etc.

The female trainer sprites are changed to resemble Samus Aran as a Pokémon trainer.

The rival is changed to be your evil sister as a reference to Dark Samus.
She will pick a complementary starter and has custom teams to go with them.

This is the final version I'm ready to make by myself. If you'd like to contribute to further added features check the Readme file

Apply this patch to a .gba rom of Pokémon FireRed 1.0 (USA) with Lunar IPS or an equivalent program

The hack has been tested on Visual Boy Advance and has also been run on Everdrive X5 Mini and EZ-Flash Omega

Version 1.0
-Samus as the female trainer
-Metroid starter over Bulbasaur
-Mother Brain Over Mewtwo

Version 2.0
-Ridley starter over Charmander
-X starter over Squirtle
-Rebalanced Metroid and Mother Brain

Version 3.0
-Kraid, Draygon and Phantoon added as legendaries
-Starters now catchable in the wild
-Rival changed to Dark Samus with new teams

Hope you enjoy it

This is as far as I'm able to take this project by myself. If you'd like to contribute to further versions of this hack featuring more changes feel free to contact me via twitter DM @GuilhermeRM_art
