Hack description

When Pokemon Fire Red first came out it was made specifically with the limitations of Gameboy Advance in mind. All the colors were made to look ok on a screen without a backlight. Now the ability to play games on fully backlit screens is readily available and the colors of Fire Red look pretty bad. The goal of this project was to make all the pokemon look like the anime colors or the colors from Ken Sugimori.
This hack was applied to a version 1.0 rom and likely won't work on a version 1.1 rom.

Work super well done, but with a problem.	SkyLink	2023-08-14	Version 1.0
It makes the characters really nice and smoother to look at, it's a really well done job. But, one thing was not good, in this case, replacing Jynx's black face. He was banned and changed to purple for a very specific reason, and putting him back in the game, in fact, I didn't like it.

It Works on 1.1	HippoPilot	2019-07-21	Version 1.1
It says in the description of this hack it is unlikely to work on version 1.1 but I tested it out and it's fine! I'm loving this hack so much and thank you to the creator!
