Pokémon Pink Edition is a unique GBA ROM hack based on Pokémon Fire Red by Shadowlink360. It features the original 151 Pokémon, but with a fun twist—they’re all pink! Complete in English, this hack offers a quirky and playful take on the classic game.
As Shadowlink360’s first hack, it’s a bit rough around the edges. The overworld sprites might look a bit odd with their new pink hue, and there are some imperfections that he admits he doesn’t know how to fix. However, he has painstakingly transformed all 151 original Pokémon into pink variations, including their shiny forms. The game’s intro and some of Professor Oak’s dialogue have also been tweaked to reflect these changes. Additionally, in-game trades have been modified to help you obtain version exclusives and there are special trades for Bulbasaur and Squirtle, so you can get all three starters if you choose Charmander.
This hack is a lighthearted project Shadowlink360 created for fun. If you’re looking for a mostly standard Pokémon Fire Red playthrough with a pink twist, you’re in the right place! Enjoy the game, and if you have suggestions or encounter any issues, feel free to share your feedback. Who knows? If people enjoy it, maybe there will be updates in the future.
