About Pokemon Project Nova

Pokémon Project Nova sends you through a transformed Kanto devastated by mysterious earthquakes, where new characters, rivals, and story-driven battles shape the journey. This English GBA hack by Gilko is based on Pokémon FireRed, version 2.0.1. Seismic activity has created original regional forms, while new areas include Pewter Mines, Celadon Sewers, Emerald City, Blue City, and the Mystic Forest. Its harder ruleset uses reworked Trainers, Set Mode, and no Bag items in battle. All Generation I–III Pokémon are obtainable, and Rare Candies are sold in every PokéMart.
