- An interesting thing I decided to implement here; every time the title screen gets loaded, it loads a random choice between Red and Green, as well as Scream Tail and Sandy Shocks. This effectively gives 4 different starting title screens.
- Made the EXPN. PAK text on the title screen more centered.
- Green now appears on the diploma instead of Red if you're playing as her.
Please stop asking me about the sprite limit i beg u
Ok so this commit does the following;
- Oak's Lab now uses the Fossil Lab tileset, featuring lots of new contraptions etc to make up for the old removed aides.
- Places the Pikachu and Eevee starters in a new place, which results in a slightly blocky mess, but does the job.
- Fossil Lab tileset graphic has many new things. Lots of bad tiles in the blockset in case we want to use this more.
- Changes the rival's pathing so he, y'know, works on the new map...
- Re-adds the Oak email thing, but I had to do like 4 stupid workarounds because it was broken for unknown reasons. Just made it a generic bg event with no issues.
- Removed the old oak email event; no visible difference.
Finally, he's here for you
It's the last member of the KEP crew
This Mon's so strong, it isn't funny
Can make a Dark-type cry out for mummy
Can push a boulder with relative ease
Makes Strength puzzles seem such a breeze
He may move slow, he can't learn Fly
But this Mon's one hell of a guy!
- Added another counter to the Game Corner prize room, adding Abra, Clefairy and Dratini back as prizes.
- Fixed Thorn Avery's and Zeta Null's names in the credits
- Small map changes to postgame areas
- Polished the new dex entries again
- Mewtwo no longer gets Waterfall and Roar from tradebacks
- Fixed a bug where you couldn't surf in the water on the Ferry tileset
- Gave Giovanni's room the same palette as Rocket HQ
- Minor text fixes
- Fixed an issue where LAST_MAP wouldn't update when sailing to Citrine
(oh and also Magnetite too i guess)
- Finally updated Oak's Pokedex rating checks to accommodate the higher number of Pokemon.
- Albatross strikes again, bringing updated sprites for Alolan Ninetales and Exeggutor, plus Aqua and Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros! Combat Breed is still the same.
Please note that the game is still unfinished, I'm hoping I can have the proper time and motivation to knock out the last few bugs and unimplemented features. Doing my best, okay? :3

- Most, if not all, Silph Co. warps have been fixed. Inappropriate ones have been removed.
- The Metal Coat can now be found where one corrupted Silph Co. warp was to fill dead space, and another is in the Power Plant, replacing Carbos.
- Bill now trades you Hisuian Arcanine after being saved.
- Bill's Grandfather now trades you Hisuian Electrode. Had to remove Crinkles, but Tangela is literally right next to Cinnabar, c'mon lol
- Toedscool can now be found behind Pallet Town, replacing Gloom and Weepinbell, making it more focused.
- Now you can't run from Omega! May expand this to more Pokemon depending on feedback and whether it's ok on processing. Main concern is making the run button too laggy - it raised some eyebrows.
There are ways this can be improved (SFX, menu message, insta-recalc stats), but this finishes the Hyper Training functionality.
Talk to James, give him a Bottle Cap, he boosts your DVs to max, and then he deducts a Bottle Cap.
Notable that vanilla vitamins don't recalc stats immediately as well, so maybe the recalc bit isn't necessary.
I am tired of doing the Legendary wing event, so I'm populating Citrine City.
Some notes;
- I refactored the In-Game Trades to match their nicknames and re-distributed them.
- I swapped Fuschia's bench guy for the third unused one meant for the safe house, but I may outright restore these.
- I refactored the Pokecenter Hidden Objects to all use the same set - they're clones of each other, so this works out. This saves a TON of bytes and works fine.
- I placed the Harry trade for Kadabra/Alakazam in Citrine Pokecenter as it feels right for such a powerful Pokemon to be post-game.
This adds Pikachu, Cat, and "Small Bird" menu icons. The cat has a custom animation done by myself.
The Jigglypuff in the Pokemon Centre now uses the new sprite, nice 'n' pretty. Officer Jenny is also in Cerulean. The Pokemon from Melanie's house in Yellow have been put in Mr. Fuji's House, given the purpose of the house in RB is different. I think it ends up fitting very nicely.
Chansey has been given its proper sprite in Fuschia. Yellow didn't actually do this, as Chansey doesn't have a walk cycle, causing the stuff that exists to go unused. I wanted it, though, so I had Chansey just not walk and turn around. Oh, and it's in all the Pokemon Centres now. Yeah, that's a...lot of changed files.
- Regional trades now dummy out the "-A" thing etc so they look nice
- Added Celadon, Saffron, Viridian, and Vermillion regional trades
- Added Galarian Sidegrade trades to the S. S. Anne, but Perrserker and Sirfetch'd specifically don't work. I have zero clue why, as they work the same as the rest.
- Corrected grammar in the "Happy" text when you finish a trade
So some bits of this are untested, but the base starters are unaffected. I had to work a lot with the sprite limits so Oak's lab has been changed a bit.
This adds a Pikachu and Eevee "mode" to the game, allowing you to pick them as starters. When doing so, the Rival will always pick the opposite.
There are some glitches;
- Picking Charmander makes Blue erase himself from existence
- Picking from anywhere other than the front of the table may have odd results.
- Oak has to be shown in the lab at the start from now on for some reason; side effect of removing the dexes, there's definitely a fix for this.
These are from me not finishing the ball picking process - it was a little weird.
Parties based on starters have been updated but I had to cut out a lot of unused trainer slots.
Also the unused names were removed.
Bill's House is now finished and fully functional, save for the PC. I've left some commented-out code to have the dex entries in case someone wants to do that.
I did some groundwork for a Blastyke starter but it's really difficult and unwieldy, so I've left it out of this commit and likely won't bother. Pikachu and Eevee mode is definitely in the cards though.
This implements much of the stuff Martha wants for the regional forms.
- Alola forms have trades; version exclusives moved to Pewter
- Galar forms will be on the S.S. Anne to promote returning
- Regional form evos will be on the S.S. Anne possibly? Maybe something else.
Also contains a similar-to-LGPE trade quote. Extremely compressed quotes.
- Replaces the Old Rod with the Candy Sack, an item to evolve Meltan into Melmetal. Meltan and Melmetal aren't in yet.
- Improves Gym Leader and Elite Four AI by a lot. They still use items, they're just better. Fixes XSpecial use while we're at it; before, it didn't actually increase the stat...
- The Scarlet Book now takes up both shelves, one section for each Paradox Pokemon. I also moved the bookshelf so it looks nicer.
- Text in Celadon University has been reduced significantly, taking up less memory and being a bit more RBY-like. It has also been made more accurate (thanks to Daiginjo for translating my booklet!)
- The Magikarp researcher in Celadon University now gives TM Dragon Rage (no longer unused!)
- Added a guard for Mt. Moon Crater.
- Removed TrainerNamePointers, Blank Leader Name Code, and Dakutens/Hakutens using a guide published by YakiNeen.
- PP no longer uses a shitty graphic and is instead properly implemented into the font, optimising the status screen. Also displays in-battle which is kinda cool.
- Lorelei, Bruno, and Agatha now play the Gym Leader theme, not just Lance.
Still unsure how to fix Celadon University's trainers, all I know is a lot of the information should be taken from the Oak fight I did. The code is radically different and doesn't call trainer headers at all. You'll likely want to start from scratch.
The Mt. Moon Crater Guard's text is a little wonky, not sure what's up there. May have been from the way I accessed Mt. Moon in testing. Anyway, if you want to mess around feel free.
* Wild data added to the Mt. Moon Crater
* CoolTrainer NPC (young Sada) added to the Pewter Museum of Science.
* [EXPERIMENTAL] Added the Scarlet Book to the hidden item list for the Pewter Mueseum of Science.
Notes;
* This commit will not work without SV Pokemon being implemented.
* The Scarlet Book has not been placed correctly. The tileset for the museum doesn't load properly in Polished Map, so I'm kind of stumped. Neither has Sada.
Things to do:
* Add an NPC to Mt. Moon B2F that blocks off the crater, along with a warp there. NPC should disappear when you have 8 Gym Badges.
