Pokemon Weird Type Fun Completed GBA Rom Hack
- Author: Enwaitea

- Language: English
- Latest Version: v1.3

Overview of the Game
Pokemon Weird Type Fun is a straightforward rom hack designed to confuse even experienced players about type matchups. It introduces 18 new types and a completely redesigned pokedex, making the familiar Kanto region feel different.
Although Pokemon Weird Type Fun follows the main FireRed storyline and structure, some characters and story elements have been altered to keep things interesting. Previously event-only areas like Navel Rock and Birth Island are now accessible through gameplay, and a few new locations and small events have been added.
Features
- Every Pokemon type has been changed to a new one, and their matchups are different from the originals.
- There are about 400 Pokemon included, from generations 1 to 9, plus a few beta and fan-made ones.
- Each Pokemon is redesigned to match its new type in a quirky way.
- Moves and items are updated to fit the new types.
- It’s mostly a faithful Gen III Kanto game but with some new surprises.
- The physical/special split is implemented.
- TMs can be used infinitely.
Known Issues in v1.3
- There are some stray pixels in the opening animation
- Rival’s palette messes up in the opening sequence if you give him a custom name. Won’t affect the rest of the game.
- Shrinking sprite also gets pixelated
- Rival walks up to the wrong ball when choosing starter, gets right pokemon though
- Rival’s first optional battle near Viridian doesn’t trigger
- Pokedex automatically records some pokemon as seen
- Teachy TV can crash the game when used, hence it is not given out.
- Some evolution items say “check” instead of use. Still work as normal when check is chosen. If you give these items for pokemon to hold you can end up with some pretty glitchy effects (anything from item duplication to turning boxed pokemon to bad eggs), so play around with that at your own risk 8D
- They can be used and deposited to the PC like normal as long as they’re not attached to pokemon.
- Eevee C and Eevee V genders don’t show due to replacing Nidorans, their genders are still recorded
- Oak’s Aides only count “kanto dex” pokemon even though national dex and national pokemon are available from the start
- Several trainers have pokemon they’re not intended to have, mainly obvious with some gym trainers and, sadly, some rival fights
- The move Camouflage has rather nonsensical effects
- Dodydra’s front sprite’s beak does…stuff…when it uses Fusion Dance
- Running is not allowed in several new maps, quite annoying
- Flying to and from new maps also disallowed, most egregious with Blackthorn City
- TM icon colours don’t match types in bag
- Directional arrows show up where they aren’t supposed to on some maps
- Five and Six Island never register as fly spots on some playthroughs
- Egg moves are largely unadjusted, which can make breeding…interesting
- Hiker that starts the Blackthorn quest will reappear until the Aid Parcel is picked up. Talking to him will get him to move out of your way if you need to go back before that. Will be fixed in a future update.
- Infinite TMs and habitat changes are currently being tested, if any issues arise with TMs or catching pokemon please report at https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/weird-type-fun-complete-type-swap-hack.529212/ or DM me in the same forums. Thank you!
