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.
Taken from SW97, seemingly an oversight. I think they should be there, the slow levels are pretty fitting if you're a "no u got stoned L ratio die" guy

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.
This implements Old City, the Honey Grandma's House, and its Pokecenter+Mart. Bunch of other bits and pieces not added yet, need to figure out the lore for them.
Honey Grandma is designed to make it easier to get important Pokemon, rather than give access to anything new. Thus, she's Nihon-locked by being an Old City resident. Martha's Perfect Rod will follow this trend.
Gold Berry tree exists to make them renewable in-game, I think this is very important.
The flypoint seems bugged.
This adds the restoration of the Safari Zone from Pokemon October. There isn't a proper place for this yet, but there will be soon!
It seems to have issues with tiles, which I am assuming to either be the tilemap clearing or something relating to Zeta's custom ball palettes, since I had to add the Safari Ball. Can you get to that, @ZetaNull?

also fixed the unnumbered route errors.
Ported from Pokemon October.

Alterations have been made in that the treemonset has been diversified a bit further, having Munchlax like in DPP. They're L60, intended to be used in Nihon.
I haven't placed the grandma in the region yet, intending for her to be in Old City.
So the scenes are massively unfinished and need some bug fixes, namely;
- Make the Silent Hills scene load properly.
- Finish the interior scene; have the player walk into the map.
- Make the scene loading in the second Blue's Lab room load properly (same issue as Silent Hills)
Main issues come from the events not working like RBY:
- You cannot be walked directly into a warp!
- Coord events don't seem to trigger scenes on their own and I'm just kind of perplexed by it.
If anyone more experienced wants to take a stab at it, by all means! This is looking really good!
- Added a Strength Switch puzzle to floor 2, which took an unhealthy amount of time to do. This is possible in GSC but requires a lot of extremely hacky solutions. There is a glitch that causes the boulder not to move once on the switch if you reload the map but I have been doing this for 3-4 hours, shush.
- Added a depressed switch tile to accomodate the new functionality.
- New switch collision type for boulder puzzles.
- Removed a lot of unused/unreferenced stuff that isn't necessary in Crystal to save space.
- Fixed a bug where you couldn't walk through one of the Kanto rock tiles
- Fixed a bug where you couldn't go back through the Winner's Path cave exits
- Fixed a bug where some trainers would glitch when walking on Silent Hills mapgroups
- Optimised the Silent Hills spriteset
- Modified Painter Dali and Super Nerd Gregg's teams
- Modified Winners Path's wild data to feature L56 Chanseys for use with the Repel Trick.
- Fixed some text so it scrolls better
This route is unnumbered for now, because it's technically the last Nihon Route (numbered 23 in-prototype) and I don't know how to number it yet. It's easily find/replaced once we're sure, anyway.
Wild data uses the prototype's plus a couple edits, levels are kept low as you're actually entering here.
It's official: Nihon is connected to Johto and Kanto now!
This makes and connects Winner's Path Outside to Victory Road Gate. Also fixes bugs in Winner's Path that caused signs to crash the game.
Next, making the route that connects to Silent Hills, and reintegrating Mt. Silver!
This implements Winner's Path into the game, complete with trainers and wild Pokemon. There's still a lot to do, though.
The Debug Lady that gave Celebi now gives Furret because it gets all the important HMs, which we need to...test things. Naturally, you have all the badges now too!
This adds some RBY elements to the Cave tileset - including some rocks, a button, a sign(!), and the ice tiles. I've modified the rocks so they work with the tileset in-practice, I really liked using these in KEP. I've put together a really really really basic Winner's Path that'll be sorted out one day...
This makes Route 2 play the "Road to Viridian City" theme instead of the Viridian Forest theme, which is accurate to how things work in RBY, FRLG, and LGPE. HGSS uses Route 3, but that's cringe.
- Fixed various tile port issues and made various visual enhancements. Now generally closer to the Kanto styled Viridian Forest.
- Added Lass Ikue, a trainer referencing Ikue Otani, to the area where the Yellow Lass was. Required updating the spriteset but it seems fine.
- Added parties for all the trainers, which were missed on the initial import.
- Fixed various inaccurate capitalisations.
- Fixed gate warps. Considering adding a Honey girl here if we ever do that?
- Restored various RBY NPCs in the Pewter and Viridian gates to the forest, saying largely the same stuff. Just keeps things move lively.
This restores the old Egg Ticket functionality, albeit without the funky animation. I renamed the area the Ticket Corner on that account. Lore relating to it has been restored.
I also fixed the fossil items (they're regular items now) and updated the readme.
The Egg Ticket still needs its function to be usable, but is now at least obtainable in some way. This makes Buena's Password much, much more interesting.
Most things are now done. Blockset is presentable, so expansion can be done with time.
Things not done:
- Scarlet/Violet Books (I want to do these like Bill's favourite Pokemon PC from RBY)
- Computer things for a fossil machine (Take from the Oak Lab tileset I sorted in KEP?? Or do what the RoA place does? Both require tileset modifications and map expansion)
- Aerodactyl/Kabutops fossil displays.
Pretty good, huh?
- Lavender Crypt/Haunted house tileset added with custom palette
- Sideways cave added to one of the Nihon tilesets for the sake of quiet cave
- Citrine tiles added to kanto tileset. I forget if I was totally finished with it but it's probably fine
- Added the gate for Route 49 and Old City in preparation for adding it
- Fixed a glitch in Quiet Cave where a PokeFan/Beauty would become Jesus
- Made the exit to Quiet Cave clearer
Kris experiences a microaggression in the gate because it's funny
This replaces the Goldenrod Pokemon Centre with the PCC. Further implementations haven't been made yet, it just exists.
Things to implement:
- Egg Ticket exchange
- GS Ball
- Regional trades
- Unreferenced text
Need to pay a closer look when I have actually got my PC with me...
There's a couple bugs here and there, but it's good enough and I think the bugs are related to how I tested it.
Doesn't use specials because it seems to just cause comical glitches to occur.
The Museum and Ruins of Alph fossil guys will talk differently, implying they're different individuals. The Museum one talks like in HGSS, the RoA one talks like the RBY one and comments on the Unown researcher's lack of care for fossils.
Also reused some PokeCom centre lore.
This means the ROM won't build until Feradactyl and Decilla are implemented. Thanks Misty!
Event will activate on any NPC so long as you do this:
```
faceplayer
opentext
special FossilScientist
waitbutton
closetext
end
```
Worked on the map and added wild data. It's mostly Kanto stuff as it was in FRLG - the Sevii Islands are Kanto after all. Slowking in the water because there's not really anything else and it's kinda neat. Shuckle is in by Misty's suggestion.
Now has wildmons, a map, and a few signs.
It seems the map usually has street stalls, so we would need tiles made for this before the map is in a presentable state. Any ideas?
The aim was simply to make the rom build with EVERY currently posited map in it. This adds EVERYTHING.
Ground rules;
- All temp maps are 10x10 cave tileset goons with nothing in them
- Connections are NOT done
- Fishgroups and music are likely incorrect and/or unfinished
- No wild data
This is extremely achievable, as numerous unreferenced maps are unused in the block and script banks. Makes doing this a cinch!
All of this basically means: You can get creative now and start brainstorming what to do with all these maps. Get them fleshed out, connected, and...not being nothing. It's like ordering in a bunch of blank canvasses. Go nuts!
This required me to scrap some unused content from `load_font.asm`. However, this is only really a temporary fix - we need to decouple footprints.asm from it and make it load from separate banks to keep going.
Look at how Pokemon sprites are loaded for reference.
- Yanma is no longer available at night on Route 35.
- Ilex Forest has nighttime Kotora and some slight night encounter reshuffles.
- Mt. Mortar is given a slight wallop over the head, levels are dampened down a chunk.
Increased Johto frequency a tad and added some more interesting bits.
I have labelled a bunch of unused trainers and put in some questions/prompts for further improvements
Levels NEED looking at by someone better than me (hi misty how r u)
Toedscool, Toedscruel, Blottle, Pendraken, Kolta, Balumba, Magnetite, Magnezone, and Gavillain.
Balumba has a small chance to hold a Fairy Feather, which makes it vaguely obtainable.
Kolta is now found in the day in the Burned Tower, whereas Houndour is seen at night. Technically balances it, right?
Gavillain is a rare Dark Cave encounter on the Blackthorn side, dragons and all that.
Balumba is a rare encounter in the National Park!
I am really not sure about Tricules and Scizor being here, it's just so early...we can give it a whirl though. The day restriction alone seems to be enough of a balancing measure.
Added Heracross since we want that increased Johto frequency.
This adds the lost RBY trainer classes and a few unused ones. No sprites because I keep messing up the alpha channels among other things. I shall simply ask Martha.
Also spruced up the readme slightly.
Fixes Molambino and Luanbo not evolving properly (oops) and adds Magiprey/Terrados. Since there's no place to put Magiprey in Johto or Kanto, this'll likely be a Nihon exclusive. Got some stuff in mind!
Perhaps a little biased that I'm finishing this one first, but this one's my personal favourite BetaMon.
- Sprite from Pokemon October currently
- Changed the Debug Mode second encounter to a shiny, so easier shiny form testing can be done
This boosts the levels on tons of encounters and distributes more Johto Pokemon (plus newly-added ones). Still a long way to go. More stuff labelled too.
