actual palettes are somewhat unfinished but the general idea is being applied now.
Untouched palettes (aside from whatever color was used for the water) are marked with a # next to them, though the palettes are all tentative.
This adds Ajawalcan's new name, using Mayan grammar and vocabulary resources to produce something truly befitting of the Kukulcan Pokemon. Before, we conflated Aztec and Mayan theology and have now chosen to squarely focus on the Mayan side of things, with Ruddy Ruins scheduled to be based on Chichen Itza.

Savoy City is now full of savvy younglings ready to bombard people with old slang. I wanted it to be a capitalistic hellscape where all the young ones trying to keep up with the trends. A few older people, as well as those entering, do not appreciate the babel.
Piloswine and Lapras pending; seem weak.
Octillery story seems to lewd even for a game that has decensored much of the original content.
Rapidash and Tauros entries give credence to featuring them around Ruddy Town with Coatl and Xatu.
Typhlosion entry allows for connections to the mujina (even if not wholly intentional, seemingly), which I quite enjoy. However, the dex entry is unsatisfactory.
Some maps are broken up or edited to allow for seamless transitions instead of needing several warps. (Area 1 is split vertically, Area 2 needs a horizontal split. The connection between area 1 and 2 also will have to be shifted up from where it is in RBY to prevent border blocks showing up where they shouldn't.)
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.)
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.
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.
This adds the SW97 and Fairy moves to the game. I have yet to do the effects for Coin Hurl, Synchronize, and Water Sport, but they seem relatively simple.
This also adds all the Fairy moves, including Moonblast, Strange Steam, and Play Rough, which become JEP-eligible under the game's criteria.
Animations not included. Sour Crystal may have what we're looking for, though.
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 four new trainer classes as discussed before and updates the leader file while we're at it. Uther is also finally named properly. Lorelei gets her new trainersprite from the CBB scratchpads.
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
- Adds Mamoswine, alongside the new Hirsuswine, a slower and more tanky alternate evolution. Design by me, sprite by zuperZACH.
- Adds the framework for an alternate Yanma evolution, currently dubbed Pending03. It's designed to be based on a clubtail, albeit one that uses its tail like an actual weapon.
- Adds the framework for Emordrome, an alternate Normal/Ghost Girafarig evolution where the dark head grows and takes control. In order to not make the line any more complicated, Calflac has been removed entirely.
- Added cries for the Cubburn line.
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!
