I found this little gem from years ago:

Hello, I'm Machomuu for those of you who don't know me,
and this is...
*Pokemon Emerald: Harvest Moon Edition*​

Introduction
Hey guys, this is machomuu for those of you who haven't heard of me.
I love Harvest Moon and Pokemon,
so I'm making this hack along with my friends and teamates​


Features:
Love and Friendship System
Return of the Blue Feather
Some Old Friend
Plantation farming
Start a family
This version you play as a boy
Have up to 2 children
Age from 10 - an undecided age
Marry 1 of 5 Bachelorettes
As you progress through the game, the world changes
Ranching Pokemon
D-Evolution Stone

Storyline
I know I said Ruby Storyline, but there's more to it than that, each time you win a badge (and certain other major events) you become one year older. You can get married at 18, each year, the world around you will change. You make friends by doing jobs, giving gifts, and talking to them (you can also make enemies this way too). People will be born, people will die, other major events will happen and many things you do will impact the rest of the game. The only reason I picked Ruby was because it allowed planting berries. Ranching is also a huge part of the game. But I'll touch more on that some other day. When your son(s) and/or daughter(s) turn 10, you can battle them.

For the Jobs:
Red: Really Need
Green: Really Want
Blue:Good to have

This is a hack I made years ago that I dropped pretty early in development, as you can tell by the way I spoke and some of the things I said I was definitely younger, so I decided that I'm going to pick it back up.

This will be slightly tough, but in my younger days I was a top-grade scripter, and over the years I've been sharpening my mapping, too. The real problem will be the clock based events and sprites.

Thanks for the compliments, guys

I do have a rather major question. Should I keep this as Harvest Moon or should I make it Rune Factory?

If you can somehow incorporate RF elements to it... I would like that.

It's more of an RPG, and that way I can really get a pokemon-based story in there while also keeping to the life/farming simulator that is Harvest Moon, So I guess this'll be Rune Factory.

This is a really interesting topic to have stumbled upon. Got any kind of concept images I can feast upon while I wait for actual in-game images? LOL
I did, but they aren't good enough. I'm remaking the hack now, completely from scratch. I'm in the planning stages now, that way I won't have to hack and plan at the same time, which is REALLY slow.

Oh.

Well, what about the concepts? Are there any changes to those?

If there are any good spriters out there, could you offer me any tips? I've never been the best spriter, in fact, in hacking it's my weak point.

UPDATE: I'm likely putting this hack on hiatus. While I like the idea, there is a much bigger, more ambitious, more personal hack that I want to work on that goes by the name of Pokemon Glory: Origins. It follows the creation, morals, and future of the Pokemon world as well as Mew's extreme importance in it.

This sounds great, looking forward to it.
