- Spaceworld-ish SGB morning palettes
- Flash caves work now
- Menu Account displays without bugged colors
- Also small Mt. Ember tweaks and a collision fix
Began the arduous process of giving old Pokemon new dex entries. Like KEP, the main aim is using media not from the mainline games, giving players new insights into the lore surrounding them. New Snap, Ranger, Carddass, TCG art, and more are all on the table. Carddass is prioritised for Gen 1 Pokemon considering its obscurity and...well, general insights into how the Pokemon act, it's pretty awesome.
I've also taken to enhancing some of the existing dex entries!
If you win the Bug Catching Contest, the man will give you an Earthquake Gligar.
The code that gives it a special move is a bit fucked up because I tried to add a Farfetch'd function, but I can't be bothered to finish the functionality because I'm stupid (it is actually quite easy I'm just lazy)
this makes the step counter and safari ball giving processes work but it still doesn't have the process of kicking the player out, nor does it display in the menu.
I also lost my mind trying to figure out how the screen flash bug works and gave up
This adds some infrastructure for the Safari Game, specifically;
- The guards who let you in; the ticket is given and Safari Balls are provided; you also get the leaving early and so on. Bit janky at times.
- Infrastructure for the step system, albeit unfinished; the steps aren't initially counted and there's no kicking out process yet.
All in all, it's now playable, but the loss conditions are not yet finished. I shall now lay down in a dark room.
This adds a clause into the wild encounter setup that sets the Safari BattleType if you're within the relevant landmarks. Therefore, all that's now needed is a way to check the Safari Balls in the player's bag before kicking them out, which should be easily triggered by looking in their bag.
This fixes the executive music bug and ensures Giovanni also gets it. I removed the female Executive since it's usually just Ariana. Can use it another time if something comes up, but right now, no need.
Now the rival doesn't awkwardly say his name is ???, using the trainer card from HGSS instead. Includes the funny lookaround gaffe among other bits. Changed the trainer class as well, making it seamless.
The act of naming your mother was restored by adding a name substitution system to WRAM, thus allowing the Dude to occupy a slot naturally. I believe Red and Blue's names are unused too, but just to be safe, I left them alone. Using this means we can technically have battles that substitute names all the time, so this is really neat.
Reworked the first rival encounter scene to have him treat you like an idiot, blurt out what you name your mother, tease you, and piss you off. Arguably flows better than the original and makes more sense. Also, now the mother's name is placed in various spots.
Only concern really is seeing the default name in the phone contact. Feel free to change that if you want, but it's hard to place due to situations where the player leaves without talking to her, so take care!
Unsure where to place these yet, made something on the spreadsheet to find my bearings. All I know is I want it!
I had to change `endtext` to an sjump as we don't actually have that script in our ROM. Polished is very different to pokecrystal. Luckily, everything else went off without a hitch.
This adds various house tiles that allow the creation of the game house from SW97. It's been heavily altered to include the SNES (from RBY), Virtual Boy, and N64.
Here, you can fight Jacky once a day to farm Gold Leaves, which will be currency for a Move Reminder. It should refresh just fine but definitely give it a closer look, I'm not exactly confident.
I also made a start on a GSCified sofa but it looks kinda weird.
This adds Route 50 to the game, as well as Jacky, albeit without the gate or house that you can warp to within.
I decided that the game house will be where Shinjuku Jacky hangs out this time! He'll battle the player and give them uhhh idfk you figure it out
Also I don't know what to call West City. It's a rather sea-blueish colour, sort of like duck egg blue. Sort of a Pacific Teal, right? I need another gay person to give colour ideas.
The connections between maps, as well as Dokuroar's boss battle, are not finished. However, everything else is, including the warps themselves. My brain is just a bit too small for a puzzle like this, so I require assistance.
This gives Sepia City all of its locations.
The pagoda uses references to the Five-Story Pagoda story from 1891, with Sages using various 成语 translated into English.
This also adds the Elder class, assigning it to Li and (now) Roen.
The Elder in the pagoda is not yet battle-able as I haven't really fit anything into the story. No cutscenes, etc, it's all too early.
It's an art museum where you can get your legendary beasts sculpted for now, though I haven't added the functionality. There's a world where it could be for any Pokemon but that implies we make individualised icons...
Nihon badges now count and Sepia City has its Gym Leader. All fully functional.
I've also distributed the transfer-exclusive Kanto Pokemon items to their relevant owners, plus the Polkadot Bow.
This commit adds some events to the White City gate that prevent the player from getting too ahead of themselves. I've also expanded Route 66 and Winner's Path so you don't get that ugly gate ending too early.
Oh, and Cal has his teams and some notes for the future chucked in.
The player needs to dumpsterfuck Green to access White City now!
This adds Tohjo Giovanni, Archer, Ariana, Prof. Blue, and fixes various bugs with my last commit. Also fixes the bug with Chris's img not having an embedded palette.
I also ported over all the KEP cries that are available as a bunch were incomplete or seemingly being remade.
Next step is to integrate much of this.
This adds a ton of overworld sprites, some from KEP, others from SW97/99, for you all to mess around with. It also adds the prototype trainer sprites from SW99 to use with the old trainer classes, though some don't have modern GSC shading.
Unfortunately, the SW99 trainer sprites need palfixing and my PC can't be fucked running it for some reason.
Lots of potential here, particularly with making Mediums now use their distinct sprites, and having Channelers to fit into the mix. I'll be using these when fleshing out the Haunted House and Lavender Crypt.
South Guy still doesn't have a name, so internally, they are called such.
Green from KEP/TPP Anniversary Red has been imported too, because she's awesome like that.
Yes this commit has the cat sprite. All rise for the best thing ever.

Just going to redo what I did after this whoops
Adds a prep-style school to Sepia City, which talks about all those super intricate GSC mechanics. It also gave it the May98 front porch and sign.
I like to imagine they all have their little Munchlaxes being trained up, maybe stockpiling on Ultra Balls to catch their first Zapdos too.
