Fixed the build issues caused by Zach's newly pushed sprites having too many colours.
Also, adds my version of the GSC-style Soldier sprite.
Also also, gave Dokuroar a slight weight increase to give it a better catch rate for the Heavy Ball.
Also also also, touched up the Dokuroar cutscene a bit (it now shakes the floor with each step, it moves slower, and its walking animation now animates correctly.)
This makes the Vermilion City event where Suicune runs off a lot smoother. It now only activates once, Eusine loads correctly, and all the sounds play without overlap.
Dokuroar, in all of its skeletal glory, has been added to the bottom of Lavender Crypt as a static encounter. It doesn't move when you interact with it, though...at first.
Also, gave Dokuroar a 100% chance to hold a Thick Club (it's MADE of bones, come on), a Snorlax-level catch rate, the Slow EXP group, a decent exp yield, and a very, VERY slight stat update.
Still need to set up the events properly. It's gonna take a while and a lot of testing. This makes the Clear Bell unnecessary and makes the Radio Tower director hand over a Master Ball instead.
s/o Crystal Legacy for their DV & Hidden Power display code, which got this off the ground. Credited aptly.
I modified what they had with Stat Exp, but the menu is a little jank and scrolling is buggy. Someone wanna pick that up?
Uppercut reimagines KEP's clusterfuck of an animation, reversing Karate Chop and then reworking the sounds
Coin Hurl works like the Poke Ball toss, and then spits out coins on-hit. Looks sort of like Acid in practice. This was weirdly complicated to implement as I had to disentangle the throw animation from the Poke Ball toss in Game Freak fashion.
Strong Arm does the "metal" starting animation, then does its best Rollout into DynamicPunch impression.
This adds Duplica, Ritchie, and Casey to various Kanto areas, aiming to make the routes a bit more populated. They're also quite strong.
Minor rewrite on Silver's Victory Road quote to legitimise the lack of trainers, just like HGSS.
A rework of the immediately previous rework. Huh.
Changes the Komainu name to Hyoshu, and implements the Yin form too, complete with stats, moves, and a very WIP sprite.
This reworks Shi-Shi into Komainu, a legendary Pokemon more in-touch with the mythology surrounding its design origins. It'll have two forms, centred around the yin/yang, considering its origins. See spreadsheet for more information.
Also rip fly shi-shi
This updates the file structure so the ROM builds properly. It also updates the base stat files of Trustan, Tanobi, and Foxfire (name tbc), and updates Tanobi's name as was meant to be done a while ago.
I've also assigned Luci's music as she describes in her track files.
Adds the Haunted House with wild data, warps, and most of the house itself done.
Gengar Doll is set to be a boss fight, needs walking sprites among other things.
BG events need a bit more fleshing out.
Needs integration for the loose board mechanic.
Otherwise extremely fleshed-out.
This adds the baseline infrastructure to account for the Sevii Islands, while also fixing a couple of bugs. Zeta, please read the commit carefully!
Only real issue I noticed was that scrolling on the town map is infinite in all three new regions, implying there's something in `pokegear.asm` I haven't accounted for.
I've also ret'd the ezchat order and gen1 orders out of existence to reduce the sheer amount of 8-bit warnings. This abolishes gen1 compatibility (though this was already a bit fucked) in exchange for actually being able to debug things in a reasonable timeframe.
Evo moves commit is unfinished and doesn't work properly. Script in evolve.asm has details.
Summer Beach House now teaches Pikachu Surf and has two issues; one is that backing out of teaching Pikachu causes issues (basically, it only goes a correct way if you say yes), and the teaching menu uses tiles from the overworld because I am stupid.
Are you a bad enough dude to fix these bugs?
This adds the Summer Beach House from Pokemon Yellow to Route 19, in an effort to make Kanto a bit more interesting.
The code for teaching Pikachu is very buggy right now and someone should check it out. I usually throw code out if it isn't functional but this seems extremely close to working.
- 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.
