This hack is HARD.  I've seen stuff in some of the Gyms that could easily destroy the Champion in the regular Emerald....and I dread to see what the Elite Four have in this hack....

Title Screen, just because I can.



Screw all the stupid introduction stuff, all you really need is my name, right?



...Ugh.....Where the hell am I??



Why was I riding in the back of a moving truck?  Isn't there some kind of child endangerment law to prevent that?



You could have told me wee were moving to Hoenn instead of throwing me and my friends in the moving truck last night and...

.....wait a minute, something's not right....

WHERE'S MY POKEBALLS?  Mom, did you leave Tyson and the other Bros back in Pallet Town??



....Sorry, Mom, I'm kinda on the phone right now....

All right, I talked with Prof. Oak, he said he'd take care of Tyson and the others until wee get things set up out here.



I liked our home in Pallet Town better...



Sure, whatever....



Stop nagging me, Mom...



I doubt I'll need this since my Bros are still in Pallet Town, but....



Well, at least I got a new console AND portable game system!

I think I'm gonna play Metroid Prime for a while and...

"CY! COME QUICK!"

What now, Mom?



Wait, Dad's a Gym Leader?  Why didn't you tell me this?



Whatever.  I mean, I haven't seen him in a few years now....



And your point is?



Nah, I think I'm gonna play Metroid Prime some more...

"GO.  NOW."

Fine, fine, I'm going already....



All right, I introduced myself.  Can I go home now?



Sigh...Guess I got to go say 'hi' now...



Nah, I just felt like parking a moving truck outside my house for no reason...



So, can I go now?



Wait, your dad's a Professor?



So now you're just gonna leave me here?  Fine, I'm going home...

Now then, where was I?  Oh yeah, Metroid Prime....time to kick Meta Ridley's donkey and...



Hmmm....that sound IS unusual...



Fine, I'll go check it out...but without my usual Pokemon, this may not be a good idea...



That doesn't sound good!



...but I don't have any Pokemon!



I guess I could borrow one of yours for a bit...




...but which one will I choose?  Machop, the powerful Fighting type?  Ralts, the intelligent Psychic type?  Or Seedot, the tricky Dark type?

Well, since I'll likely be giving him back his Pokemon, I'll just grab one at random....



Alright, you troublemaker, prepare for some serious pain!



Ralts?  I thought I grabbed the Poke Ball with Machop....oh well, doesn't matter, I'm not keeping it anyways...



Studying?  Does that mean you're Prof. Birch?



He's got his own lab, so he must be Prof. Birch.



I do have Pokemon, they're in Kanto until I can get Prof. Oak to send them over to me.

"Actually, that might be a problem.....The Inter-Regional Trading System is currently down.  To make matters worse, the authorities won't say why.  So until the system comes back online..."



Well, I guess I could keep her for a bit longer....



"I didn't get a chance to introduce myself earlier.  My name is Emma."

..........Did you just talk?

"Yes, I did."



Now that you mention it, I think she was looking for you earlier....



Well, I guess wee could go find her...



Did you forget about me having Pokemon back in Kanto already?

"Wait, you mean you've already trained Pokemon before?"

Well, I was Champion of the Kanto region....until mom forced me to come out here....

"Perhaps you should save this story for another time.  The Professor wants us to find May, remember?"

Oh, right....so, Emma, got any other moves besides Tackle?



"Well, I've got Confusion.  It's not the strongest move, but it should be enough to keep Wild Pokemon away while wee look for May."



Sigh....another quaint, old town....let's keep going.



Perhaps I can sneak up and scare her....



Dammit, she spotted me!



Emma, you think you're ready for this?

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."



"Just because you're a new Trainer doesn't mean I'll hold back!"

You and your dad just don't get it, do you....Fine, guess wee'll do this the hard way!



"Good luck hitting the REAL me..."



Phew, that was close....I didn't realize Seedot would have Bite!  You okay, Emma?

"As long as that was her only Pokemon, I'm fine..."



Now do you believe me, May?



Maybe it's because I was once Kanto Champion?



Well, I got nothing better to do...



Learn some patience, May.  I'm coming.



Kanto Champion here.  I told you that already.



Call me when she wins a League Championship, then wee'll talk.

"Oh, I almost forgot!  Take these, I think you'll find them useful."



Yeah, I think those will be useful.



Sure, whatever....

"Are you saying you don't like cute Pokemon like me?"

That's not what I meant, Emma.



"Before you leave, though, there are a few things I need to make you aware of.  First, the authorities announced that the Inter-Regional Trade System was hacked and suffered serious damage.  It may be months until they can get it operational again.  So for now, your Pokemon in Kanto are stuck in Kanto."

WHAT???

"Trust me, it gets worse.  That wasn't the only thing that was hacked.  Hoenn's Pokemon Storage System was also hacked.  Most Pokemon that were stored in the system disappeared and were likely 'borrowed', including May's old Pokemon.  Fortunately, some functionality has been restored to the system.  However, the system is only capable of storing one captured Pokemon per route right now.

YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!

"And that's not even the worst part.  Even the Pokemon Centers' Pokemon Restoration Systems were hacked, though most of their functions have been restored.  However, at the moment they cannot heal any Pokemon that has fallen in battle.  So be careful out there....

WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS??

"All the authorities are saying is that a group calling themselves "Omega" has claimed responsibility for the hacks..."

All right, I'll keep all that in mind.  Come on, Emma, let's go.

"And where are wee going?"

Something tells me this "Omega" group has to be stopped....and I've got some experience in stopping evil organizations...



Oh, hey mom.



What is it with females and cute Pokemon?  Whatever, Emma, say hello.

"Hello, ma'am.  It's a pleasure to meet you."

Anyways, I'm going out for a while, be back....whenever....



Well, my old pair is kinda worn out, so thanks!

Alright, Emma, I've got some Poke Balls, so I think it's time to catch some friends!

"Very well.  Where shall wee start?"

Well, Route 101 is just outside town, I guess wee can start there.



YOU AGAIN?  You're not planning on attacking me too, are you?

"Actually, I, um....I wanted to, you know, apologize?"

Really?

"Yeah.  I was just, you know, hungry....Say, um, you're a trainer, right?  Mind if I, you know, come with you?"

Hmmm....Any objections, Emma?

"Nope.  He seems truly sorry for his actions."



All right, then.  Welcome to the team....um, what's your name anyways?



"Oh, it's, um, Alex."

Then welcome to the team, Alex!

Hey, remember where wee fought May?  Route 103, if I'm correct.  There was some tall grass there, too!  Let's go check it out!



"That's far enough!  Come any closer and I'll peck your eyes out!"

Careful, Emma, this one might be trouble....

"Don't worry, I'll hold her still for a few moments.  You hurry up and catch her!"



Good job, Emma.  So, Spearow, what's your name?



"It's Taylor.  And I'm still gonna peck your eyes out one day...

I think Taylor's got some anger issues....Anyways, I believe there's one more route around here...the sign here says it's Route 102.  Guess wee better check it out too.



"Hola, los amigos."

Um....WAT?

"She's speaking Spanish.  She said 'Hello, friends.'"

Oh, ok.  Anyways, would you like to join us?



"Si."

Translation, Emma?

"She said 'Yes.'"

Cool.  And what's your name?



"Me llamo a Lily."

I'm guessing that means your name's Lily, right?

"Si."

And that means yes.  All right, then, welcome to the team!



Hey, Alex, what's all this stuff?

"Oh, um, while you and Emma were busy, you know, catching new friends, I was, um, scavenging through, you know, the trash.  And I, um, found some, you know, useful items."

Well, it's free stuff, so I'm not complaining.



"It seems that while wee were busy acquiring new friends, I learned a new attack.

That's good to know.  Anyways, I think wee could all use a short break...

Ugh....guess wee got to fight...



Lily, you think you can handle this?

"Si."



Even Hoenn has these noobs...



Alex, Taylor, take care of them.  It shouldn't be a problem for the two of you.

"Um, okay.  I'll do, um, my best."

"Come here, Bellsprout, I won't hurt you....much..."

Oh, great, now some kid's pestering me about shorts.  I guess shorts are popular out here too...



Wait a minute....I thought I sent you to Johto....



"Ouch!  That, um hurt!"

Alex, you gonna be okay?



"Um, don't worry.  I learned, you know, a new attack, um, earlier!"



Phew....that was TOO close...



Just give up already....

Great, now some girl challenged me...She doesn't know who she's dealing with...



Taylor, you want to take this one?

"DIE, ZIGZAGOON, DIE!!"

...You really need to work on those anger issues....



"It seems Taylor forgot about the battle and is still pecking at that Zigzagoon's corpse.  Don't worry, I'll handle the rest.

Thanks, Emma.



Petalburg Gym.....As much as I don't want to do this, I should probably go in and see Dad...




Well, I guess I'll come back later....



What a noob

"Be nice, Cy.  I'm sure you were the same way once..."

No, not really...



Come on, guys, wee've got bigger things to deal with and....



You're the one running the Gym right now, right?  Why can't YOU do it?



Dammit, how did I end up babysitting this noob?



HE caught a Ralts?  How is that possible?



You know what, it doesn't matter.  Let's just head back to the Gym so I can get rid of this noob.




With a name like Bugynus, he (or she) must be a Bug-type trainer....But I thought all Bug Catchers were noobs...



I know from experience that Antidotes are essential for an adventure.



Nope.....I'm just kidding, of course I'm a Trainer.



Then your search ends right here....Hey, where are you going??

Whatever....Hey, there's Route 104 over there, maybe wee can catch something?



Really?  A USELESS Bug....

"I'm not useless..."



Check your stats, worthless bug.  You're useless....

"Don't you think you're being a bit harsh?"

No.  Ledyba has a horrendously low Atk stat.  I'm simply stating the truth.



"I'M NOT USELESS!  And my name is Naomi."



I'm sorry, Naomi, but I'm afraid you're getting boxed...

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"



"What is this place, Cy?"

That.....that is the one place you don't want to go to....because only the dead go there...

But don't worry too much about it.  How about wee go fight some trainers on Route 104?



Please tell me there's more forms of entertainment out here in Hoenn...



Taylor, you hungry?

"Hehehe....Time to die, little bug!"

You and I REALLY need to have a talk....



Really?  Let's see it!



"Su pez es sin valor."

"She said 'Your fish is worthless'.  I agree with her."



"Prepare para morirse."

"Now she says 'Prepare to die.'"



Sure, but don't get mad when wee win.



Damn, that Zigzagoon is tough...Alex, you think you'll be okay?

"Don't worry, um, about me.  I'll be, you know, okay."



A forest....something tells me there's a lot of Bug-types here...



"Welcome."

A Metapod.....Would you like to join us?



"Since I cannot move right now, I have no say in the matter.  If you wish to capture me, so be it."

All right, then you're coming with us!  And don't worry, you'll be soaring through the skies in no time!  So, what's your name?

"I....I don't have a name..."

Really?



Then may I call you Cameron Jr.?

"If that is your wish, then so be it."

Very well, then.  Welcome to the team, Cameron Jr.!

All right, Cameron Jr, it's time for you to earn your wings!

"But I have already told you, I cannot move.  Therefore, I cannot fight."

Don't worry, I have a plan.



See this weak Bug Trainer?



Well, I'm going to send you out against his Pokemon.

"But I cannot fight!"



Don't worry, I'll switch you out before they can attack.  This way you still gain experience.

"And I get to KILL, KILL, KILL!"



"My body....it feels as if my body is going to burst!"

That's good, Cameron....that means you're evolving!



"I....I can move!  I can fly!  I can even speak in another color!"

Wait, what was that last part?

"Um...nevermind."



"And now I can fight!"



"Such power....I can see why you enjoy using this attack, Emma."

"Yes, it is quite powerful."



Actually, I did see one earlier...



Hey...what's going on here?



This guy sounds like trouble....I wonder if he's connected to that "Omega" group...



I don't HAVE to help you, but I don't care much for troublemakers....



Team Aqua?  Never heard of 'em.



I got to admit, the logo looks kinda cool...



"Don't worry, I, um, think I can, you know, handle this."



That's what Team Rocket said, and look what happened to them...



Let's see here............I don't see anything that important about these papers.



Thanks!



I'm too cool for school, kid.



Cameron Jr, you ready for your first real battle?

"These bugs are weak!  I'm much more cooler than they are!"



I'm a Pokemon Trainer, not a gardener....



A Bullet Seed TM...could be useful later on...



Just because you have a lot of money...



...doesn't mean you're a good Trainer.  Show him what I mean, Taylor.

"Die, you filthy rodent!"

Taylor, wee REALLY need to talk sometime...



Sounds like a Double Battle to me...



Alex, Cameron Jr, you ready for some tag team action?

"I'll, um, deal with Seedot, since it's, you know, immune to Confusion."



"All right, then that Hoppip is mine!"



I doubt that....



Magikarp?  REALLY?

"How pathetic.  I was expecting a challenge..."



"...but I did learn a new attack!"



It took a while, but wee finally made it to Rustboro.  Now then, let's go check out the Mart...



It seems they're selling the weather-changing TMs here....I think I'll pick up a Rain Dance TM for Lily...



"Yo no puedo utilizar eso."

"Um....she said she can't learn that move."

Sigh...Oh well, I'll just hold on to this then.



Must be some emo guy living here...



Oh, so he just gives away Cut HMs then...That's cool.



Maybe I should go teach the students for a while...I'm sure I could do a better job than whoever's running this place....



That's a bit harsh, isn't it?  Oh well, thanks for the Quick Claw!



A shame that I don't have a Bellsprout....



Well, let's see what wee can catch out here!



Ugh...It's a Skitty.....Another useless Pokemon....

Oh well, might as well catch her...



"I'm Lucy!!"

Um...Okay.



Guess I better give you an Antidote....though don't get used to this, you're likely gonna get boxed soon....
