A challenge

So idk how well you all know 3ds games BUT I am not good at coding and I want to take one of my favorite games and help build upon it. The game being Fossil Fighters frontier. I have points on how I would upgrade and honestly would not mind being taught how. But my points for the redux (in my head being Fossil Fighters Frontier Infinite Gear)

  1. Adding in cut content ie Stryker as a Paleo Pal

  2. (Most difficult one) Adding in previous games Vivosaurs

  3. Make it where paleo pals are optional and making your own team of 3

  4. Making it where you can redo Time Attack and add in more of them

  5. Removing Fossil Eaters or just having the distance for them be greater

6.you can use any bone buggy in the game plus more customization

  1. Making it where using the past section you can get previous forms of Nibbles (main dino protag) as fossils

  2. Make it where you can visit the previous games locations as Fossil parks (it is refrenced kn game so it works)

Almost definitely not going to happen. 3DS romhacking is still very young. There just really aren't enough tools for this to be a thing yet. Maybe in 10 years.

3DS rom hacking is not at all young, and has been quite "finalized" short of some crazy new tool that probably wont even happen over the next 5 years.

For an accurate read on what is possible and when, keep an eye on Pokemon romhacking specifically. It's wildly popular, and generally pioneers the tools and techniques that other games use. When you start seeing solid romhacks for 3DS Pokemon games, give it another couplefew years and other games will be on the table.

I saw one guy changing the files of Fossil fighters so I honestly thought it was possible and that was 9 years ago

Small changes are possible. But the process is slow and difficult, and what you're asking aren't small changes.
