Pokémon Chaos Black is one of those wild ROM hacks that takes the original FireRed/LeafGreen and cranks the weirdness up to 11. You start like normal—picking a starter, battling your rival—but then things get unpredictable fast. Ever seen a level 50 Mewtwo before the first gym? Yeah, that happens here.

The game’s full of bizarre encounters (Pikachu with Hyper Beam, why not?) and glitchy charm. Some trainers have teams that’ll wreck you if you’re not ready, and the map twists in ways that’ll make you double-check if you took a wrong turn. It’s messy, unbalanced, and kinda hilarious because of it.

If you’re into ROM hacks that feel like stumbling into an alternate universe where the rules don’t apply, this one’s a trip. Just don’t expect anything polished—half the fun is seeing what absurd thing happens next.
