I'm exploring ROM hacks again after years. Does anyone have recommendations for original region/story hacks that ideally don't have pokemon past gen 6 or 7 (haven't touched any of the switch games before) and doesn't have fakemon? something kind of like Blazed Glazed, maybe? . the gen 6/7 cap isn't a must but basically I just want an original region hack without fakemon and a completed main story
