A fan developer has released Pokémon: Ghost Grey Version on PokeCommunity, a ROM hack inspired by the horror-themed creepypastas and edgy romhacks popular in the late 2000s and early 2010s. The game is set in Kanto in 2049, fifty years after the events of Gold, Silver, and Crystal, depicting the region as decayed and overrun by ghosts, ghouls, and troubled survivors. It follows an original story rather than retelling an existing Pokémon game's plot. The project joins a long tradition of fan-made Pokémon hacks that explore darker, non-canon takes on the series.
