Pokémon Ghost Grey is a complete, horror-themed GBA ROM hack of Pokémon FireRed. Its a psychological horror homage to the late-2000s creepypastas, the game reimagines the Kanto region 50 years after the events of Gen II. In this bleak, apocalyptic wasteland, a mysterious cataclysm has caused almost every single Pokémon in existence to become a Ghost-type, forcing trainers into a grim struggle for survival.
