Cool and challenging romhacks? (pawb.social)

Title.

Pokémon's too easy to be fun anymore, but Nuzlockes don't work for me for a number of reasons. So I figured I'd play one of those romhacks that redesigns trainer teams -- That way I could play the game normally but also would have to use my brain.

Any base game will do, although I'm not too fond of Gen4 because of how slow Gen4 pokémon games tend to be (gen5 is the prettiest, ofc)

If you haven't already played it, definitely play Rocket Edition. It's not designed for increased difficulty, though I found it was a bit more challenging than vanilla. But the writing is phenomenal.

Bit of a sidetrack, but do you know if I can play rocket edition on a hacked 3ds? I'd like to play but I don't have time to sit own and play Pokemon on pc

It's a FireRed hack, so if you can play a FireRed ROM, you can play Rocket Edition. At the very least, there are special cartridges you can get to play ROMs.
