There are a lot of Pokemon fans out there, and there are also a lot of mecha fans out there as well; and few of them are fans of both. Nevertheless, the few that are fans of both have come to the conclusion that pokemon and mecha are more similar than they appear from the outside. So someone really smart decided to bring the two of them together, and make a game out of it.

Mechamon is a Pokémon Fire Red hack that seeks to combine two things that many people hold dearly: Children and teenagers running away from home to capture and battle wild animals, often without adult supervision, and children and teenagers running away from home to shoot each other in giant robots, often without adult supervision.”

Basically, instead of catching pokemon with pokeballs, you catch mecha with haros. Instead of fighting random bug boys, and Team Rocket grunts, you fight Innovators and Jesus Yamato. So all pokemon sprites and trainer sprites will be replaced with mecha counterparts. You can check out the entire list of mechamon that will be in this game here. I have to admit, I’ve had dreams about this very game for a very long time now, it haunts me every waking hour. Take a look at a brief look at the gameplay below, but remember, it’s still under construction.

Yeah there were a couple of good Gold/Silver remakes, it's almost a shame that real remakes of Gold and Silver are coming out now. I used to make hacks myself but never got very far with them, that was years ago though, but it was quite fun to do :P

Needs to do a bit more Find/Replace and sprite swaps, but otherwise it looks awesome.

yeah, the one I was talking about was ShinyGold, which has enough extras in it to probably surpass heartgold/soulsilver.
