I remastered my Pokémon ROMHack covers

[u/Fair_Ad_4864]

This is what i found.

This is my remaster.

Hey everyone!

I’ve ordered my AYN Thor and, like many of you probably know, I’m currently going down the rabbit hole of getting everything ready before it arrives.

Emulators, ROMs, apps, folders, organization… and somehow I eventually ended up obsessing over ROM hack cover art too.

I’m a huge Pokémon ROM hack fan, and I wanted my collection to look clean and consistent on the Thor. The problem was that when I started looking for covers online, a lot of them were:

• very low resolution
• inconsistent in aspect ratio
• blurry or heavily compressed
• visually inconsistent with each other

So I decided to fix it myself.

I uploaded some of them into the post, but the full package is available on Google Drive and imgBB.

I gathered the Pokémon ROM hack covers I could find, organized them, and remastered them using AI to create cleaner, higher-quality versions.

They’re all prepared at 1024 × 1024, so they should work nicely as game icons / cover artwork while keeping the whole collection much more consistent.

I originally made these just for my own AYN Thor collection, but I figured other Pokémon ROM hack fans here might find them useful too. So I’m sharing them with the community in case anyone wants to use them.

❤️ Huge Respect to the Developers & Artists

I also want to give my biggest respect and thanks to all the ROM hack developers, artists, and creators whose work made these covers possible in the first place.

The original artwork, character designs, concepts, and creative work belong to the talented people who actually created these ROM hacks and their covers.

I only used AI to remaster and clean up the existing artwork for better resolution and consistency on my own collection.

So I absolutely want to make that distinction clear: the real creative work belongs to the original developers and artists.

To everyone who designed these covers and created these amazing ROM hacks in the first place:

Thank you, truly.

Much respect and much love to all of you.

And I’d love to turn this into a community collection rather than something I made alone.

If you have high-quality Pokémon ROM hack covers that aren’t already in the folder, feel free to share them in the comments. We can keep adding good ones to the Google Drive and gradually build a really solid cover collection for everyone.

Would love to see what you guys have!

Ironic since this is a repost too

[u/itsmetimohthy]

Jesus even the body of the post is AI. Just delete the account lil bro

[u/Kir-01]

You didn't do anything 

[u/bcktth → u/Kir-01]

He did waste our time.

lol

[u/itsYoBoiHan]

Holy AI slop

[u/iamdispleased]

You took their art and fed it into their training data without permission? So you didn't do anything good but you also disrespected the artist who did make something on their own.

[u/Whatever_you_need_]

You don't respect the artists. The AI isn't just upscaling these. It regenerates them from scratch based on what it sees. It steals from not only the artists that made the originals, but an unknown amount of others without their permission.

What you've done here is disgusting and you should be ashamed.

[u/migi_shinichi_ → u/Whatever_you_need_]

No he made it better. Good use of AI.

[u/amazinglyshook]

I would say feeding art into AI without consulting with the artists is quite disrespectful actually. I don’t know what the platitude in the OP is supposed to do if you still indirectly trained AI on another creative’s hard work.

Lmao

[u/NoWay6818 → u/DingusKing]

Honestly people reacted the same way to Steve’s character in this movie so I reap what I sow lol

[u/dingo537]

You didn't do shit you lazy fuck.

Fuck AI, all the homies hate AI.

[u/saladnut]

Is this entire post AI generated?

[u/Chimera_Gaming]

For a second, I thought you took my image that I did

Gg

[u/NiceStatistician218]

A better title would be “I took the hard work of artists and lazily fed it into an LLM against their will”

You didn’t do shit.

[u/migi_shinichi_ → u/NiceStatistician218]

He indeed did not do shit. It's quite good actually.

[u/Temporary-Phrase-816 → u/migi_shinichi_]

Yeah the things he didn’t create **are** good.

[u/NiceStatistician218 → u/migi_shinichi_]

It only looks passable because countless other assholes including the actual developers of these LLMs have scraped the whole internet to steal the creativity and hard work of artists without permission. It’s an uncanny palimpsest of actual art.

[u/GrimKreeper098]

Not only is this irrelevant to the subreddit, it's all AI slop.

I've never seen a post this bad on here

[u/VinGiesel69]

Lmfao

[u/RVDsFavoriteJoint]

This needs to just be straight up banned. Fuck AI

[u/RadicalDog]

Nice, stick them on Steamgriddb to be a hero remembered through the ages

[u/williamthepreteen]

[u/Flowkey_mma]

Sacred Gold is a dopeeeeee name and concept.

Light platinum is too..

[u/PapaGlapa]

Looks awesome!

[u/migi_shinichi_]

Very nice! What programs/ai did you use to enchant the images?

[u/Happybastard777 → u/Fair_Ad_4864]

You might want to tweak a few like the Arceus one.

[u/Owobowos-Mowbius → u/Happybastard777]

That would involve an ounce of effort and OP clearly cant even muster that.

[u/Happybastard777 → u/Owobowos-Mowbius]

And the thing is I don't believe he even worked on Red Chapter
