Pokemon Fire Red Essence is a GBA ROM Hack by GCass based on Pokemon Fire Red in English.
Also, be sure to check out Pokemon Emerald Essence as it’s by the same author.
The goal of this ROM hack is to retain the essence of the original game while allowing you to catch all of the Pokémon that were supposed to be caught in Fire Red/Leaf Green. All Pokémon can be found where they normally are, eliminating the need to consult a README file to determine their location. This hack is not for you if you want to catch all 386 Pokémon. If you want to be able to catch every Pokémon in Fire Red, regardless of version exclusivity or trading requirements, then this hack is for you!
The changes can be divided into 3 groups; changes that allow for the completion of the Kanto Dex, changes that allow non-Kanto Pokémon to be caught, and quality-of-life changes and modernizations.
