individual-color-variation VS universal-pokemon-randomizer

No, ICV doesn't change shiny rate. I don't know if your game is safe with all of this, but I can definitely tell you that there is already a patch that incorporates RP, FP and ICV. You can get it from here - https://github.com/TheGag96/individual-color-variation/releases - after that you can slap the shiny rate increase patch on it, start a new game, and well, pray that everything works. It should work, but NDS patching is finicky and with that many patches risk increases.

Yes this exists for Platinum here

the xdelta patch is available to download from here. are you having trouble applying this patch? if so, we can help if you're more specific about the issue.

What you'd be changing is a constant in the file tableprinter.d over in the Gen 4 version of the mod. If you're doing this for a Gen 4 game, change MAX to whatever number you want, then follow the build instructions (which involves installing a D compiler). You can shortcut things by just replacing the table in an already-patched ROM, if you do some fiddling.

You might also want to use Brentspector's fork, or some experimental branch of ZX, if you are looking for specific features. Though the former is slowly falling more behind as afaik Brentspector has stopped working on it, and experimental branches can be buggy and have to be built before using.

This version of the UPR works with FireRed Randomizable 809.

Randomizers generally don't like ROM hacks, unless they are built-in of course like with Unbound. The Universal Pokémon Randomizer (UPR) relies on manually entered offsets for ROMs, like where tables for all the data are found. (for examples, look in the .ini files here) It is possible to enter these offsets for ROM hacks too, but afaik it has only ever been done to Gaia, Randomizable 809, and a few Speedchoice ROMs.

There is, in Brentspector’s branch.

Brentspector’s branch of the UPR should work with FireRed 809 Randomizable (not to be confused with 898 Randomizer!).

Gaia can be randomized with its own customized randomizer, and FireRed Randomizable 809 can be as well, with the best support in Brentspector’s branch of the UPR.

If you have a ROM hack you want supported (and it's Gen 3), then yes. This will also enable adding in support for Static pokemon. There is no full list of possible overrides, but most can be found between the Fire Red 1.1 (U) in gen3_offsets.ini and the gen3_hack_offsets.ini file. Let me know if you want more details. I'd love to expand support for more hacks.
