Bootleg Games: Pokémon Snakewood

One of my favorite Pokémon Rom Hacks/Bootleg Game cartridges is of course called Pokémon Snakewood. The plot of the game is set in the Hoenn Region, three years after the events of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. Hoenn is ravaged by a Zombie Apocalypse, and your Older Brother Landon and, Prof. Birch's Daughter May. Disappeared while trying to Stop the Zombie Plague. You can Play the Rom Image in a GBA Emulator on your Android Phone or Computer, or if you have a working GBA or NDS Lite; you can buy an Bootleg Cartridge on eBay or Etsy. It's a good game, if a bit difficult at times. I would definitely never recommend playing this game as an Nuzlocke Challenge. It is still extremely fun to play, tho. And it is well worth it to buy a Bootleg Cartridge on the Internet.
Mostly for Portability. The game does randomly Glitch and Freeze sometimes when entering an Trainer Battle, forcing you to reset the Game; So, save often like whenever you can! (Not sure if its a glitch specific to the physical bootleg or not, I haven't tested the emulated rom very often)
