Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)
Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

Talk to Gob after the Sunstone quest with Lucca in the party.
The chip items found around 1999 are used to boost stats at the arris dome, however before its
available you must do a series of quests first. To begin do the Rainbow Shell quest then go to the ???
area from the teleporter in 1999 and beat the Dactyl, then go back to the Reptite village and recruit the Reptites
(certain parties are more persuasive)
The drone can be purchased in the pawn shop in Truce (West City) its the purple orb on the counter.
The speed shoes are won from the arcade in Medina.
The black box in Medina is available after the Black Omen is cleared at least once. After the Black box is

Atropos, then go to the bar in Choras. once this quest is complete revisit the black box in Medina and the
Geno dome in 2300.
