Pokemon Toxic Purple ROM

Congratulations, you’ve just graduated from Team Rocket’s boot camp and are ready to get your own Pokémon and start wreaking havoc! You and your
partner are being sent to the hidden Rocket base in Saffron City, where you will get your first assignment to go to Lavender Town. Don’t bother trying to go to any other city: all the other security guards are on the look-out for Rockets and won’t let you through. We’ve bribed off the East Gate guard, though…

You’ll be involved in all of Team Rocket’s most impressive schemes. Poaching Cubone in Pokémon Tower is only the beginning. You’ll be helping Team Rocket as it slowly moves towards its ultimate goal: Taking over Silph Co. and, after that, Kanto. There will be some kinks in the plan, of course. There’s this twerp named Red who seems to show up on the scene just after you leave, undoing all of Team Rocket’s hard work.

There’s a rookie Officer named Jenny who just won’t leave you alone. There’s the constant threat that Mewtwo might come back from his self-imposed exile to wreak havoc. And then, then there’s the fact that Team Rocket is about to break up for three years. Three years into the future, you’ll be involved in the effort to bring Team Rocket back from an undeserved defeat.

Cutting off Slowpoke tails, taking the Radio Tower director hostage, rigging up complicated radio signals, searching for your missing boss, the works. But Red’s example has spawned more ambitious young twerps, and the glorious comeback won’t last long. Team Rocket will fall a second time. Its third incarnation will be all up to you…

Features

• Custom sprites (including overworld), new story, new plot, Johto access, new characters in addition to old ones and a few animé ones (no, you aren’t playing as Jessie and James…). All Kanto and Johto Pokémon available, no plans at this point to include Hoenn or Sinnoh Pokémon.
• New starters, naturally. Not a hundred percent sure what they’ll be yet. Not Ekans, Koffing, and Meowth, though. Seriously, you’re a Grunt. You might be getting the wonderful choices of Rattata, Rattata, and Rattata. I repeat: you’re a Grunt. It’ll inspire you to go get better Pokémon.
• Like I said, this was inspired by Rocket’s Revenge, and so (with permission from EarthsVisitor) PokéCenters won’t heal your Pokémon, and most of the time when you enter a house the homeowners will battle you.
• Stealing Pokémon and smaller team sizes. These two tie into each other. Sometimes, after a battle, the poor loser you beat will be forced to give you his or her Pokémon. Unfortunately, if you don’t have an open space in your party, you can’t accept the Pokémon, and you’ll never have another opportunity to accept it. So, you can have a full team of six, but if you want to do your job as a Rocket, you’d better keep your team size small.
• No gym challenge. You’ll have to do other things if you want to get promotions, but so far the only gym leader you’ll be battling is Sabrina. Like she’s going to let Team Rocket take over her city and lock her up in her own gym without a fight. Other Super Epic Fun Battles include beating up an innocent mother Marowak (who somehow, despite all
  rules of evolution, is level 10… Hey, she’s the first Epic Battle of the game, I did what I could), a pack of wild Starters in the East-West Underground Tunnel who hate your guts for some yet-to-be-disclosed reason, and a bunch of lousy Viridian kids who attempt to take over the Gym while Giovanni is away.
• A whole bunch of rivals. Mostly mini-rivals, I suppose. (Kinda like Wally.) First there’s your own partner (your official rival) who loves challenging you to show off his newest steal, but then there’s also Red in Kanto, and Kris in Johto, as well as Jenny. Plus (not a true “rival” but still…) Mewtwo’s newest hobby is collecting trainer underlings–
  willing or not–and bothering Rockets with them.
• No HM slaves! Every single HM needed in ToxicPurple will be made available through Key Items. No Cut, no Surf, no Strength, no Rock Smash, no Waterfall. Definitely, definitely no Flash. And now I’ve actually figured out HOW to script all these things, so we’re completely good to go on an HM-free game. However, for people who really liked Surf, that HM will still be available if you just want to teach it to your Pokémon. It won’t be necessary, though, since you’ll have a raft already.
