From be610a2c39cc6474e1940f32e5f5aa62b63ccd62 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martha Schilling Date: Sun, 4 Jun 2023 00:17:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Big Pokedex entry reworks After going through the 1996 Pokedex again, as well as FireRed's dex entries, I've updated the majority of dex entries to add more information, be more consistent, or just slightly reword them to make them sound better. Some could still probably be reworked, but I'm mostly satisfied with these now. --- data/pokemon/dex_text.asm | 934 +++++++++++++++++----------------- data/pokemon/new_dex_text.asm | 370 +++++++------- 2 files changed, 652 insertions(+), 652 deletions(-) diff --git a/data/pokemon/dex_text.asm b/data/pokemon/dex_text.asm index d894a8d5..e2907820 100644 --- a/data/pokemon/dex_text.asm +++ b/data/pokemon/dex_text.asm @@ -1,31 +1,31 @@ _RhydonDexEntry:: ; new entry - text "Its horn can" - next "destroy boulders." - next "Evolving to stand" + text "After standing on" + next "its hind legs, its" + next "brain developed." - page "on its hind legs" - next "stimulated its" - next "brain" + page "It can punch holes" + next "through boulders" + next "with its horn" dex _KangaskhanDexEntry:: ; new entry - text "Females raise" - next "babies in their" - next "pouches." + text "The female raises" + next "its offspring in" + next "its belly pouch." - page "They are adept" - next "at using COMET" - next "PUNCH" + page "It is adept at" + next "attacking using" + next "COMET PUNCH" dex _NidoranMDexEntry:: - text "Stiffens its ears" - next "to sense danger." - next "The larger its" + text "When listening to" + next "distant sounds, it" + next "flaps its ears" - page "horns, the more" - next "powerful its" - next "secreted venom" + page "like wings.
