- [pokeemerald] Getting this into the game's over world (and colored correctly) was a bit more work than I initially expected but good learning, now for the other two.

I Made A ROM Hack Using the Emerald Decomp Project Which Includes a Thief Ball and Raised Catch Odds When Pushing B as the Ball Shakes.
If you don't want to code, Porymap is an incredible tool for making custom maps and changing Pokemon encounters.

If you're enjoying SV's autobattles, you might be interested in Pokemon Voyager's version of the same mechanic!
Seems doable, yeah, especially if you have at least basic C knowledge. If you get the build tools set up, there's already some follower code available, so you wouldn't even have to re-engineer that yourself. And PoryMap can probably handle a lot of the basic edits you want to make.

Question About Pokemon ROM Hack Limitations
You can look at the pokeemerald decomp. Instead of using binary tools like Adcance Map and HMA you are editing the source code with a simple text editor and porymap. The pokeemerald has everything up to gen8 (mons, moves, abilities). An example hack that was made with the decomp is Inclement Emerald.

Bi-Weekly Questions Thread
Porymap is the best gen 3 map editor tool, but like the other replies imply it's for decomp hacking only.
decomp has an equivalent to advance map called porymap. it's really not all that different to use. i checked your post history and you mention having trouble with adding new tiles in advance map, i can say from personal experience that adding new tiles in porymap is very easy.
the other option i can think of is the pokemon emerald decomp. you would have to learn a bit to get a decomp working, then use pokeemerald-expansion's pokemon_expansion branch as a base. once you have that decomp set up you could just use porymap to change wild pokemon locations and make those pokemon available in the wild.

I remember playing Pokémon Crystal on my translucent purple GBC as a kid. Feels surreal to have this in my hand
You have to compile it yourself or ask for someone to do it in the discord, but they found a way to exceed the pokemon limit in what they call the 9-bit version.

Stop Binary Hacking; It's Holding Back the Entire Community
If you are going to do crystal, then check out other romhacks that use the decomp, like polished crystal (in my opinion the best crystal romhack) to get inspiration and see what other people are doing
