Pokemon Rocket Edition is a Game Boy Advance (GBA) ROM hack created by Colonelsalt. It is based on Pokémon FireRed, but instead of becoming a Pokémon Trainer who collects Gym Badges, you begin your journey as a member of Team Rocket. The hack retells events from the original Pokémon Red, Blue, and FireRed timeline through a different point of view while introducing a new storyline and original dialogue.
