I've been tinkering with the Telefang 2 bootleg "Pokemon Ruby" and with some help from Normmatt I was able to take the english script from the bootleg (which would crash when you opened the main menu making it unplayable) and insert it into the original game, where the menu works fine.
The result? A fully playable, fully translated Telefang 2.
Everything is now 100% fully translated.
The translation isn't perfect, but it's quite readable and doesn't make the game less enjoyable. In fact it can be funny at times.
Battles are now perfectly translated along with items and moves, courtesy of RacieB, Blaziken257 and Kimbles, as well as Sanky for sending me the patch.
That's pretty much all I can think to say right now, so I'll leave you all with the download link and a snippet of game information from Wikipedia.
"Keitai Denjū Telefang (Japanese: 携帯電獣テレファング Hepburn: Keitai Denjū Terefangu?, lit. "Mobile Phone Beast Telefang") is a series of role-playing video games (RPGs) developed by Smilesoft[2][3] and published by Natsume. In the games, the player contacts various creatures using a mobile phone-like device in order to get them to battle the foes he or she will encounter."
You can compare it to Pokemon. It has many similarities, but a better story (doesn't take much) and no random encounters (yay!). It also has a great soundtrack
Worth playing for any Pokemon fan, or fans of RPGs in general.

Known issues:
The cursor in selection dialogs is in the wrong spot, Normmatt needs to fix this in his VWF. Fixed in the upcoming patch. An example of the issue is here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/telefang-2-full-translation-patch.346322/#post-4767217
Download: https://github.com/Jdbye/Telefang-2-English-Translation-Project/blob/master/Telefang 2 Power (J)-Eng.ips?raw=true
Apply with an IPS patcher such as Lunar IPS. Sure most people use xdelta now but this is easier
Post bug reports, missing translations etc. in here or in the original topic on Tulunk Village.
Missing translations may be tricky to fix with my limited rom hacking skills, but I'll do my best.
If anyone wants to help fix translation errors, or want the files used for other reasons, the original script as well as all the other files are available in the github repository here: https://github.com/Jdbye/Telefang-2-English-Translation-Project
The ROMs are not included for obvious reasons, but there is a readme with instructions on how to use.
Coming Soon!
A new translation from the ground up, using this patch as its basis. It will have a few additional changes/improvements such as a new font. You can see an example of the new patch here:
