Kinda funny that Volkner trades Zapdos, because he canonically has one. In BDSP Battle Tower, nearly every one of Volkner’s possible teams includes Zapdos, it’s his most used Pokémon there, even more than his supposed aces Electivire and Luxray
It seemed to me like it might have been developed by someone who was disappointed by Sinnoh. I loved all the changes where they got rid of all the awful stuff from Sinnoh because there truly is a lot of awful stuff in that region
I think there's necessary context that a lot of people miss when dunking on this game. For one, it was made by a French-Canadian rom hacker, EricGall23, and so that's why a lot of the dialogue is silly or stilted; English is not his first language. I think more important, though, is how it was made. Fancy decomp hacks have somewhat diluted what people think is normal for rom hacks, but this game was made a long time ago with very rudimentary tools. This game (and his other hacks, Gold Unova and New Gold) are more or less just re-orderings of the original Gold. If you pay attention you can notice how basically every interaction in this game is transplanted somewhere from the original. I've seen people in the comments complain that there are no Sinnoh Pokemon or features, but of course there aren't! That's beyond this game's scope. Gold Sinnoh is a very simple hack that changes mostly dialogue and maps and then expects you to fill in the rest with your imagination. Gold Sinnoh is hardly a masterpiece (New Gold is), but I would say that it's actually pretty cool for an early binary hack of Gold and that Eric Gall clearly had a vision for it.
Damn with how many legendary pokemon running around the plot of this game should have been Team Rocket dug up the Mewtwo cloning tech and cloned a bunch of pokemon including legendaries
This game seems pretty fun. Dark Rising was much much worse and employs a brilliant trap. You lose the first boss battle with a pokemon you're confident in because you get a dragon in the early game but the boss you battle has like a lvl 40 pokemon so it's designed to be a wash. That part of the game motivates you to grind, no one believes it will get as bad as it actually turns out to be. Just thinking of the ai spamming full restores with lvl 99 legendaries is enough to make my skin crawl. To think some people tried to nuzlocke that game is beyond me.
I know why 5:36 creator couldnt port sprites from gen 4 for obvious reasons and had to settle with what they had. Probably the reason they chose to romhack gen 2, too... you dont have to work on sprites too much
To keep it short: They think social media is bad, so they randomly show up to spread their message, then they abruptly disband… that’s what I got out of it at least 😂
I think it stems from this hack being pretty old. I think the final version was released in 2020, but it's much older than that in reality, which likely has something to do with the lack of new stuff in general (Since, as far as I can tell, there isn't a single new asset in this hack). Not sure how primitive Gen 2 hacking was when this one started development, or if it was at all.
I like to think that Team Rocket was eventually able to find and capture the Legendaries, then (for whatever reason) gave them out to their agents that won a raffle.
Another terrible that i don't even know people like is Pokemon Light Platinum from GBA... Even without cheating this is the WORST that i played even WORST then my english... Serious! Many stupid glitchs about Elite Four, and there is a specific glitch that make IMPOSSIBLE to proceed to the Victory Road...
5:32 The worst gym leader of Johto, ... whose only qualification is having an actually talented cousin, .. who can't pass a simple Pokemon quiz, ... who thinks nothing of cheating like no tomorrow judging by one of the questions you're asked in said quiz ... is finally where she belongs. Goes to show even such a "bad" hack gets some things right.

the placement of legendary pokemon makes this feel more like randomizer than the normal game
Ya it was definitely strange, but I didn’t see any randomizing options
When the rival said "YOU CAN'T HAVE 200 FRIENDS!" I genuinely laughed lol
I just don't get why you'd make a Sinnoh demake, and then remove all the content. At that point, just make a new region and story. Such a strange idea
Ya that was one of the bigger problems that people had with this game. I wish there would’ve been some more Sinnoh characters, or even Pokemon
It seemed to me like it might have been developed by someone who was disappointed by Sinnoh. I loved all the changes where they got rid of all the awful stuff from Sinnoh because there truly is a lot of awful stuff in that region
@@ado-I found the sinnoh hater guys. Most of sinnohs problems aren't even it's own and mostly due to gen 4 as a whole. Johto on the other hand...
@@bigchungus7870 how can you hate hgss it literally has voltorb flip
@@bigchungus7870 HGSS are literally the best pokemon games period. What are you on about?
Team rocket is against social media in this game because they know how well this game is going to perceived online😂
Naaah 😂
the only inaccurate thing about this game is having cynthia lose to lance. There isn’t a multiverse where she loses to him 😂
Ya I didn’t think about that 😂
Well, Ingame Lance woud probably never win against her. Manga Lance on the other hand.......
Nah his rematch team is jacked af. He could probably get a win or two. But Cynthia will have a winning record for sure.
There isn't a multiverse where Cynthia loses to ANY champion
Stop glazing cynthia
This game feels like it was made by a child. It's impressive that the game plays as well as it does considering that.

Ngl the trainer's owning fully evolved Pokemon like LV 5 arcanine and LV 16 nidoking is better than a LV 22 pidgey or something like that
Haha ya, that’s true. At least they know how to evolve Pokemon 😂
@@TerraQuake1They be throwing out low level Nidoking like the Mew glitch never went away lol
Hold on, this game has Gary *and* Blue??? Why??? How??? What???
Damn with how many legendary pokemon running around the plot of this game should have been Team Rocket dug up the Mewtwo cloning tech and cloned a bunch of pokemon including legendaries
That would’ve been cool!
"You can't have 200 friends!" I lost my mind.
seems strange but cool. About a year ago, I tried my hand at a non rom hack fangame, and it was MUCH MUCH worse than this.

0/10 I was legit looking forward to Pokemon Trash Version from the thumbnail. I wanted to see an intentionally bad pokemon game
Look up Garbage Green
Garbage Green isn't that bad. It's pretty much Leaf Green, but sadistically difficult.
I mean, I also think that social media is bad but you don't see me forming evil teams to get rid of it
That's just Lack of spirit
Lance beating Cynthia was the most absurd thing i ever heard, even for a ROM Hack
Subbed up. Would love to see more obscure ROM hacks like this be covered.
Thanks for the support! I’ll definitely look into some less popular rom hacks!
I know why 5:36 creator couldnt port sprites from gen 4 for obvious reasons and had to settle with what they had. Probably the reason they chose to romhack gen 2, too... you dont have to work on sprites too much
Me: Why are you doing this!?
Team Rocket: We want to destroy social media. It's bad for everyone.
Me: In that case... Where do I sign up?
I was gonna say! It's not a BAD rom hack from what it seems, just confusing. Everything was confusing. I wouldnt say bad at all honestly
14:59
Dude predicted Ramanas Park
🤯
Okay can someone tell me the story of team rocket in this game and there parts in the plot.
To keep it short: They think social media is bad, so they randomly show up to spread their message, then they abruptly disband… that’s what I got out of it at least 😂
@@TerraQuake1does it have the physical special split
...Are there even any Sinnoh Pokemon in this game? I'm five minutes into the video and so far it's just been Kanto and Johto Pokemon
That’s another complaint that people had, not a single Sinnoh Pokemon appears in this game

Popped up on recommendations, doing somethin right! Keep it up g
Thanks for the support!

If you don't mind tackling difficult ROM hacks, could you possibly cover the Ruby Destiny trilogy? I still love Life of Guardians to this day.
I hope that there's a hack that actually demakes sinnoh with all the pokemon.
Pokemon Platinum for gba
PlatinumRed did attempt this, but I think it's dead. There hasn't been an update in years...
How has snakewood not been considered the worst
This looks worse than snake wood😅
Team rocket more like Team Boomer hahahahhhhaja
They really were like that 😂
The hilarious thing is that a bootleg has the EXSACLY the same concept and criticisms
This gives me a weird desire to -replay- retry Pokemon Quartz.
I also remember Life of Guardians being enjoyable but pretty poorly written.

10:22 maybe he just really likes pikachu 😂
"Pokémon Gold SINNOH"..... doesn't have a single Sinnoh Pokémon in it....
does this game have the physical /special split
why does every line of dialogue have an exclamation mark 🤨
Can you try to make your own romhack of emerald❤
I’ve always been interested in making my own Pokemon game, not sure if it’ll ever happen though
guess you can say this is "fake sinnoh"
This is actually one of the best rom hacks
That looked quite fun, guess everyone's just a hater
ikr this game sounds super fun
Worst of worst : pokemon dark worship
I think it's pretty cool Gold Sinnoh is a Gbc. It's nice seeing Sinnoh in Gen 2 graphics
Oh my GOD I played through this. It sas AWFUL.
Also I used Roark's Aerodactyl that he trades you and it was one of my MVPs.
Pokemon CAWPS is the worst I've seen so far.
Might have to check it out one day 🤔
I liked that one, dark rising is much worse.
Pokemon caps is pretty fun if you start with zangoose you can get the other two starters later
Not as bad as bloody red
Might have to give that one a shot one day 🤔
play cuck emerald its a bad hack
Maybe I’ll give it a try one day 👀

5:32 The worst gym leader of Johto,
... whose only qualification is having an actually talented cousin,

... is finally where she belongs. Goes to show even such a "bad" hack gets some things right.
Not gonna lie I've played way worse.
Snakewood is worse.
Not too bad
Hyped
wrong, it's pokémon marrone merda
Here before you liked
You should play pokemon garbage gold its a trash game
Might have to give that one a look!
