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.

Bi-Weekly Questions Thread
scripting is something i have a lot less experience in, both in binary and decomp. from the little scripting i've done, writing in poryscript seems a lot like writing in binary script languages, except that you don't have to worry about offsets and free space. i think this is the main difference you'll find if you only make simple events.
porymap, a map editor for pokeemerald, has a mac version, and so does poryscript which is a script editor. for anything else, you don't need any extra tools at all. you'll edit pokemon base stats in any text editor, and graphics in any image editor.
