Pokemon R.O.W.E

Pokemon R.O.W.E is a project by a simple person going by rioluwott. There isn’t an actual definition for ROWE but let’s just roll with it. It uses Pokemon Emerald as its base, and the story is the same for the most part. The other thing is that the location and characters are also the same.

There are a lot of interesting new features for this ROM hack. You can choose different modes and three levels of difficulty for this game. The creator states that this is their attempt to make a Pokemon ROM hack that utilizes an open-world mechanic or at least close to it.

Story

The story utilizes Emerald’s story; however, due to the game’s gimmick, the story could be altered in a way that you have to experience for yourself.

Features

Before you start the game, you have the option to choose the difficulty from Easy, Normal, and Hard. You can even choose modes such as Perfect IVs, No IVs, Randomizer mode, etc. Mix up everything you want to ensure that you have a fun experience. The game also gives the player nine choices for their starter Pokemon.

The tenth one is a random Pokemon that they can get. Once you have your difficulty, mode, and starter selected, it is time to choose the location where you start off.

The game gives players some freedom here where they can go and which Gym Leader they can fight, so that’s a good feature to have.

  2. Ok so this game is as great as it was in the early days,still the game crashes alot this means i have to quicksave all the time but i.just dont care because there are so many things in the rom that has never been implemented to any romhack,but if u can plz fix the crashing and i also wanna know how to get megastones for my aerodactyl and beedrill,one short thing that i wanna say is implement a way to evolve trade pokemon without trading,i know later down the run you will eventually find strong mons and i know previous unevolved pokemon in set routes will also evolve as the game progresses but if u can add a link stone,i hope u read my comment,have a nice day

    • Hi Protick, We’re very sorry to hear about this issue you’re having with Pokemon R.O.W.E. The game should not freeze up on you during play unless you have cheats enabled. Make sure to disable or better remove them to void such issues.

      • Hello i’m currently having an issue with the game, so i mistakely downloaded the 1.6.9.2 version instead of 1.7 so do you know how to transfer my save file to the new version?

        Reply
      • Hey, I’m actually having the same problem. After pokemon encounters my screen will black out and never come back up. it happens every 5-10 mins or so. Clean emerald rom used for the patch too. Really enjoying the game, all mons still in the teens for levels, but It’s frustrating having to save after every couple encounters or lose progress. any tips? never used any cheats, but disabled the feature anyway to troubleshoot.

        • Hi! I’m playing on version 1.8.3 and you’re describing the same problem I’m having right now. Any chance you know how to fix it?

    • Hey pal, this is not a pre-patched file that’s why you can’t play this directly to your emulator. We don’t share pre-patched here, that’s considered piracy. Fortunately, there’s a guide provided in the source site on how to patch the file.
