About Pokémon Scarlet & Violet (GBA)

A FireRed ROM hack that reimagines Scarlet/Violet ideas inside the classic GBA engine.

If you love the vibe of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet but still prefer the crisp, fast feel of GBA-era Pokémon, this hack is a great middle ground: FireRed-style exploration and battles with modern-inspired additions, new encounters, and extra locations to discover.

Instead of copying the Switch games beat-for-beat, Pokémon Scarlet & Violet (GBA) adapts key ideas into a format that works on FireRed: new Pokémon and forms, custom areas, and tweaks that keep the adventure feeling fresh even if you’ve played Kanto a hundred times.

Good to know: This is a fan-made ROM hack. Content can vary slightly between builds/versions.

How it plays (what to expect)

This is a FireRed hack, so the core gameplay is classic GBA Pokémon: routes, towns, trainer battles, and progression through the world. The difference is in the details — you’ll see new Pokémon, adjusted encounters, and added locations that push it closer to a Scarlet/Violet-inspired experience.

Gen 9 flavour on GBA
Includes additions like Koraidon, Fidough, Cetitan, and Paldean Wooper, plus other encounter/character tweaks.
Extra places to explore
New areas are part of the fun — including a new city, additional routes, and extra caves/locations depending on build.
