- Marowak has Tail Whip to ensure it gets its entire learnset - currently can't, as Yellow creates a weird incompatibility if caught the way it currently is.
- Gyarados is given its Yellow learnset, as chances are it's being made fishable and thus needs it to be of an appropriate power level.
- Stone Evolutions I changed are nerfed to balance the Move Relearner properly.
This is a cave that connects Bill's Lighthouse and Route 10, only accessible after Surf is obtained. Contains a static Dragonite as a reference to the anime!
With me moving the Trainer AI elsewhere, I was able to optimise the party stuff a little bit. There's a lot more space and from what I can tell it works fine.
There are now three separate files - one for standard trainers, one for the rival & oak, and one for scaled parties (aka gym battles and related). This is mainly for organisational purposes.
If I run out of space again, I'll rework the Trainer AI script to pull parties another way, storing the party files in individual banks.
I changed the P image to match the font used in the prototype assets.
Also, because Yujirou has a pic all alone in that one bank, I added the other 4 beta trainer classes that never got used. They're all ready to be used, just need teams and a place to go, but I want to address trainer line-ups last code-wise.
- Move Deleter and Move Relearner are added, featuring updated code from Shin Pokered, which took the code from Mateo's Red++ hack. They replace the Trader in Celadon University. The code has been updated quite a bit to fit the modern standards of pokered.
- The Trader has been moved to the trade room in Cinnabar Lab, which is thematically appropriate.
- Eevee's L1 learnset now appropriately features Tail Whip; this was a mistake made by Martha when porting Yellow learnsets.
- Fast Text cursor slot is fixed
- New ROM Bank stores the new maps as it got full when adding the move relearner/deleter - Maps 21 will still have space though.
- WRAM has been fiddled with, please please read the notes if you edit the Move Relearner area, it needs quite a bit of space.
- Wild data for Mt. Moon and Route 22 has been tweaked a little bit.
This code has a lot of problems with solutions that me and Frrf can't seem to figure out. We've taken a lot of references from Erika's Gym but we've got many bugs after Yujirou is defeated, such as one case where you end up instantly doing the rematch fight, which is insane because there's no way this can actually happen.
What's committed is a fight that can be re-fought when it shouldn't.
This map is fully functional but has a lot of bits to iron out, as well as a need for Gym Trainers. I'm also not wholly satisfied with Yujirou's team; maybe remove Eevee?
Yes, I designed an entire tileset for this. Fear me. Bow before me. Actually, don't, this was beyond rational thought.
Current issues;
- Yujirou's sprite doesn't work properly.
- Needs Gym Trainers (hell)
- Yujirou needs an event for being beaten, the refight, and more.
Seems to interact oddly with Saffron but I believe this is because of the way Team Rocket works. The event itself works fine.
Also added the Up-Grade, as before, Porygon was evolving via Trade.
Uses text referencing LGPE, and has a similar location.
Because of the sprite limit in Saffron, the Pidgeot NPC has been removed.
This refactors the Celadon University trainers to ensure that they process properly without the odd memory leak-y thing I did before. Overall works the same, just works for the intended purpose.
I also applied what I learned to Professor Oak, giving a Yes/No prompt and adding some pre-battle music as I originally intended.
Reworks the Pokedex to accommodate for the regional forms, changes a title screen graphic, and cleans up a few base stat files (will do the rest later). Also revised a few dex entries (special thanks to my girlfriend for Gyopin's!)
Thanks to Frrf for helping me fix the broken code I initially sent in. This commit refines the mode so that the Oak Lab cutscene is finished and the party picking process is all concrete.
Also, given Surge is a fight, the S.S. Anne Pikachu rival can have Raichu, surely...
Also, the UnusedNames files were, in fact, needed...otherwise, the item names get all corrupted. Probably left some code behind.
So we officially have a new funky mode!
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.
Yeah so I got bored and decided I'm just going to do all of these. Commented out for when they're added.
Also added slots for the potential addition of the Galarica Twig and Wreath but this seems so cringe
This finishes the regional form dex entries and adds Meltan and Melmetal to the framework since they aren't in yet.
The following needs to be done:
- Name entry
- Dex placement
- Cries
- Palettes
- Sprites adjusted for KEP itself (greyscale, 56x56, whitening)
- Sizes
- probably a bit more
This tweaks the wild data so Aerodactyl, Omanyte, and Kabuto are in the water. Also diversified the Squirtles and added slots for the Hisui formes to use once they're in.
This adds the Dubious Disc Salesman to Cinnabar Pokemon Centre. I chose this area because it's late in the game and it seemed a bit iffy to constantly have to go with Pokemon Centres not in towns. Cinnabar has some connection to Silph, so it makes more sense than just balancing.
There are probably improvements that could be made (eg. a quote as you buy) but the salesman code is surprisingly brittle so I'd rather not break stuff for hours for something that already works perfectly fine.
Rowan NPC added to Cinnabar Lab, just a little cute thing.
Bill's Garden could see many revisions, what's here is the bare minimum. Here's what's done:
- Nidorino NPC blocks it off and is unlocked in the post-game. This currently contradicts the myth - I have a plan for this soon.
- Wild Pokemon are the "non-reproducibles" given in Stadium; starters and eevee are mandatory given those were common in the myth
- Hisui forms should be added when possible
- I had to remake Martha's map in the forest tileset so leaving would be possible
- Everything is at a point where it functions
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.
All of the Ubers have sprites now (goodbye Lion Pory2!), fixed a small bug I made on Route 19 when resizing Cinnabar, and some minor text updates/fixes.
Adds fossils, Black Augurite, and a few other neat items to Mt. Moon Crater, given it's where the "ancient" Paradox Pokemon are. Seemed cool to me. Also does a few misc things
I gave the readme a facelift to show what's what, and also added notes on the new evolution conditions.
Some notes on evo condition changes;
- Set Sirfetch'd to be a Heart Stone evolution, seems fitting.
- Reverted Pikachu back to stone -> trade, as this is the most consistent with what people will rationally do. People **will** try to trade for Gorochu according to the mythos behind the whole thing, there's really not much wiggle-room.
- Swapped the Vileplume and Bellossom to match SW97 and base Vileplume, it's just confusing to veterans otherwise.
Things to consider:
- Making the Porygons consistent, right now they just aren't. Either add the Up-Grade or make Porygon2 trade as well.
- Adding the Politoed evolution to Poliwag as well to match early material that implied such.
This adds gym scaling for every leader, plus Koichi of the Fighting Dojo.
Me and Ema decided to give Koichi scaling, as he is a gym leader in everything but class. I will likely give Yujirou the same treatment once he's all set up.
The parties have not been set up, assuming Martha is working on them.
An important note: space is somewhat limited on trainers now, so the leaders will need implementing incrementally. You will most likely have to remove unnecessary trainers to make this work.
This code has been tested on 8 Badges and loads the rematch team, which implies it works correctly. It needs to be tested with progression and the like, though.
I've also renamed the "Pocket Lapras" a la the "Miraidon's Poke Ball" concept from SV, which can be used later.
Essentially, I bruteforced making it work; made the tiles we desire be warps for us instead. You do this by noting the bottom-left tile of the block for some reason, so tile $30 of forest will be a warp tile even though it really looks like it shouldn't be. As far as I can tell, there are no consequences for this war crime code as long as you don't put a warp where it shouldn't be.
This was surprisingly easy to add, albeit a bit awkward. I learned how to add trainer battles without headers this way, so I may go back to CeladonU and restructure with this in mind.
This commit adds a fully functioning Professor Oak fight, using the Rival party choice script as a launchpad. You can desynchronise the choices easily, just a few number changes. I used the S. S. Anne 2F and Route 22 scripts to hodgepodge it together.
Because of how I did this, Oak is fully re-fightable, taking inspiration from XY Serena's daily re-fights.
I tried to add a Yes/No prompt, but it would still pull you into the fight, presumably because it's calling a beforebattle script before the code. It's a bit of a hassle and my CeladonU code sucked, so I decided to leave it out for now.
It's intended to be unlocked once you enter the Hall of Fame, thus that change there. That hasn't been tested properly so uhhhh *shrug*
