This is a hack ROM based on Pokemon Red (USA), the author is 80C, this is his first hack ROM.
Pokemon Grape's development began in 2012, it had 3 Demo releases, Demo 1 and Demo 2 were released during 2013 while Demo 3 was released on Christmas 2014.
Each Demo release featured huge differences and improvements.
This is a Total Overhaul hack that changed drastically the original game almost beyond recognition and it features advanced Assembly Features - most of them have been implemented for the first time in a Gen1 Hack ROM like Physical-Special split attack, new evolution methods etc etc etc.
Later Gen1 hacks were influenced by this hack as their authors affirmed in various occasions.
Many events of the game are similar to the events that occur in Pokemon red (although in a different order) but those similarities will be explained later in the game's storyline.
The hack is pretty hard, especially at the beginning of the game, and the gameplay experience offers way more hours of gameplay than the original Red Version.
This is the last hack that has been realized with obsolete methods like hex editing etc.
Many fans considered this hack the "spiritual successor" of Gen1 hacks like Pokemon Brown and Pokemon Team Rocket Edition.
Indeed, since its first moment Pokemon Grape started as a tribute to the old-fashion and retrò Pokémon Hacks.
Actually Pokemon Grape is widely considered by both critics and fans around the world one of the best Gen1 hack ever made, it won several prizes during these years, the last Demo release received critical acclaim.
The hack is about to be ended but there are still a lot of details to be adjusted for the Final v1.0.
Region of Frejo, 1999
The Pokemon League Zone, located on the border of the Regions of Frejo and Kelgo, is famous for being the headquarter of one of the most prestigious Pokémon League, it is an important reference for Pokémon trainers all over the Pokemon World.
The leaders of these two regions are going to declare war to each other for some unknown reasons.
Finally, they agree to start a competition, a Pokemon Tournament to decide who among the two will be the owner of this Zone: the competition states that who can gain all the 8 badges of Frejo and defeat the Elite Four will be the owner of Pokemon League Zone.
In order to create an equal competition they agree on assign a rookie trainer as contender, one per region.
Unfortunately, before the starting day, some bad guys have destroyed the Pokémon Database located in the Pokémon League Zone. Pokédex data and parameters are now lost. Monetary values and Pokémon trading collapse. Everything is in chaos. To make things worse than ever, some renegades from Team Rocket who had fled the Region of Kanto the previous year after the Silph Failure are compromising this competition with the help of some fanatics who call themselves "The Epsilon Program".
On the next day, you gain control of your character, Frejo's contender, a former baseball player, his name is Marquis but you can assign him whichever nickname you like.
His rival and nemesis is a psychopath teenager named Paul that due to some personal issues won't hesitate cheating and dirty tactics. This Paul actually may or may not be the same "Paul" from the Pokémon Anime series.
These guys are not your generic mute characters from the previous Pokémon games.
There's also an unknown Pokemon professor put in the competition at the last minute by the Pokémon League: he is Professor Bek, allegedly Samuel Oak's cousin.
The Professor is supposed to give the contenders an extra task: complete the Pokedex in order to restore the lost Pokemon Database data by collecting every Pokemon specie during their quest.
This is an extra task that you can either ignore or accomplish, in any case this will decide your ending (Good Ending vs Bad Ending).
Hurry up or those two regions will not be here anymore.
Is this supposed to be yet another Pokemon Red hack with the SAME background stuff like Evil Teams, powerful legendaries, secrets, unlockables, rivals and fat guys who love technology?
Why there's STILL Team Rocket behind this (this time without Giovanni)?
And who is "Kifflom" and its "Epsilon Program" and what it has to do with Team Rocket and all of this?
There's really a secret underground passage under Megan City's Museum?
Is this Hack ROM such good?
There are really OVER 240 Pokemon species??
Well, at this point I suggest you to find the answers by yourself by playing the game.

I've bug-tested this beta myself with a little help from a few Beta-Testers, but there's always the possibility that The Beta testers missed something.
If you encounter any bugs, feel free to send me a Private Message.
This time there aren't fatal Glitches that freeze your game (that aren't already present in the original Pokemon red Version, though you won't find them normally during the gameplay);
Minor bugs (don't affect gameplay\mechanics):
*Many Pokemon can learn X-Scissor even if they're not supposed to do so.
This had been fixed in the final release;
*Gen3 and Gen5 Pokemon don't have a MiniOW icon in the party pokemon.
This had been fixed in the final version;
*3 Pokemon (gastly, Magnemite & Doduo) have glitched backpics.
This problem was already fixed for the Final release, I'm very sorry about that, adding manually 499 compressed pics is really frustrating and boring, you know.
NOT BUGS:
*Sometimes Rustel City's music pitch changes slightly if you re-enter the area. I found this funny and I left it in the game. Yes, the song is "California Gurls" by Katie Perry and Snoop Dogg, thanks to AshAndMisty aka Red for the catchy tune;
Fixed Bugs originally present in Pokemon Red Version:
*Focus Energy and Dire Hit are no longer glitched
*No more glitchy east-coast tile that spawns weird wild pokemon (aka no MissingNo glitch);
*No Elixier\Ether glitch in case you raise PPs with a PP-Up;
*After using Transform the palette color will be corrected as soon as you either look at the party pokemon or wait a few turns;
*No Glitch City :P
*No Cycling Road Block skipping :P
*You can't anymore do fishing in the GYM statues;
*ALL moves have been updated up to Gen6 games, Blizzard has 30% of freezing chance like in the original japanese versions;
*Solved the so-called "Save Game Oversight" bug involving the Cycling Road;
*A lot of other minor fixes that actually I don't remember at the moment;
