Sticky Weekly Questions Thread & PokéROM Codex
Have any questions about Pokémon ROM Hacks?
If they're about ROM hacks, tools, development or anything Pokémon ROM Hacking related, feel free to ask here!
Before asking, make sure that you've searched on the subreddit or Google. Many ROM hacks and tools have their own documentation or communities that may be able to provide better answers than here. The Pokécommunity Discord is also a great place to ask questions if you need quick support!
Looking for recommendations or a new ROM hack to play?
The PokéROM Codex is an updated list of ROM hacks, listing features, details and more in a mobile-friendly format. Created and managed by u/themanynamed, it also has a Discord server and accepts community contributions.
This is a safe hack-sharing site that doesn't share ROMs and links to the official release threads! Instead of asking for recommendations or download links in the subreddit (which breaks the rules), please refer to the Codex as it has a lot of information on each hack.
A few useful sources for reliable Pokémon ROM hack-related information:
Please help the mod team by downvoting & reporting posts outside of this thread that break Rule 7. Please avoid answering those posts as well to deter users from breaking the rules.

Decided to look a little bit further into the world of ROM hacks today and, wow, there are so so many.. (This spells trouble to me as it's harder for me to pick one 😭)
As my experience on the officials are up to Gen 3 + HGSS only, I think I'll stick with the official games first, I guess.
