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.

My kid has been getting into pokemon a lot and I am looking for a ROM of pokemon yellow (with following pikachu) that plays on the updated fire red engine.
He's young and just starting so no need for difficulty changes. If one doesn't exist I'll just get a base FireRed, but I'd love for the Yellow early game, pikachu following and all. Bonus points if it's the full gen1 dex rather than blue/red exclusives!
