The Candy Jar is now obtainable in the Indigo Plateau, instead of being an item obtained from Chief. I've removed most Chief-related stuff but expect some instability after you beat him, as I don't believe I completely removed the function to call the text.
The Candy Jar will now not collect candies in the following instances;
- It isn't in the bag.
- The total would go over 40.
Just makes sense and ensures players are engaging with the proper intentions. The 40 total is necessary, as over 40 stops the jar from working. This does mean some candies are "lost", but the players see that.
There's a bug where Meltan will have the moves of the Pokemon it's replacing and I don't know why. I've tried a bunch of fixes in `LoadEnemyMonData` but it didn't seem to want to work.
It was a long shot, but I did it! I added the Mystery Box from Pokemon GO! Very happy with the results here.
So here's how it works: When used, the game will replace Pokemon encountered with Meltan until the player leaves the map. This is sort of how it works in GO, with the player unable to close it and naturally petering out as they play.
Now multiple Meltan can be obtained, and in abundance, just like GO. Technically, someone could use this as a pseudo-Repel to replace hard encounters with easy ones.
Oh, and I'm pretty sure this happens vs static encounters as well, but it's awkward to account for I think that's hilarious, so...
- Changes Bill's Garden to be a more fitting Overworld-tileset map
- Gives Cinnabar Volcano a unique palette, being a slightly less-bright version of the RedMon palette
- A few small changes/improvements to the Rival teams
- Reduced wild encounter levels in Silph Gauntlet a little
- Adds a 100% chance for a Magmar encounter when fishing in the Cinnabar Volcano lava
- Hides more 'secret' areas off the Pokedex area listing, namely Mt. Moon Crater and Faraway Island
- Improves Jabetta's sprite a little
- Gave nicknames to the Galar Evolution trades, they're a bit different to regional variants n such
- The Throw Rock command now only increases flee chance by 50%. It seems like it may be a little TOO strong though, bit curious.
- Changed a bit of text here and there
- Made CHIKUCHIKU trade accessible, still need MICHELLE
Still need to find out what I want to do with Body Slam, Swords Dance, and Thunder Wave. Slam/SD are on the Sevii Islands, and TWave is on an existing NPC who usually gives Self-Destruct.
Could possibly refactor the item receiving text.
This adds the Mt Moon Square House, faithfully recreated from GSC. I haven't yet sorted out the important details regarding the Crater Guard and such, though.
Making the map involved making a new desk tile and making house tile $36 be considered a counter tile. Hopefully there aren't any adverse consequences but I've never seen anything of that nature.
I noticed there are a ton of Clefairy text bits, so I refactored it to be a single line farcalled from `text_7.asm`. This also involved an interesting thing with the Pokemon Fan Club where the Pikachu fan has a Clefairy, so I fixed that too.
I figured that adding the dance was a little difficult right now, so we have Clefairys walking around instead.
I haven't figured out a good place to add the ladders yet (since there should be two entrances) but we'll figure that out eventually. It's plausible that we just make the Crater the southern warp, but I like how out-of-the-way the current one is.
Oh, and I fixed the Crater warps.
Overall, functional, but not finished.
- Made Gym Leader levels more consistent
- Updated sprites, including a complete redo of Espeon's (based off the Gold sprite)
- Fixed an issue where Blue would have an incorrect team
- Changed Celadon Gym trainer text to accomodate for being a girl
This commit adds NPCs and signs to Citrine, doing some significant worldbuilding in the process. I considered adding an event where Oak greets you like how the Magma/Aqua Admins do on the ORAS Battle Resort, but it seemed a little too on-the-nose, y'know?
There was an issue where you wouldn't be walked out of doors automatically, which was quite immersion-breaking. That was because the door tile IDs weren't defined - this is fixed too.
Some map elements have been altered to facilitate the new changes, and obviously, some map sprite slots have been filled.
Importing and changing the Battle Tent is most likely my next task.
Currently, he doesn't deduct a Bottle Cap and he only fills out Attack and Defence. DVs are stored as a 16-bit address, so I need to find a way to make `a` work with it...
This update does a good few things. Giovanni now uses his unused encounter theme in all pre-fights, which is followed by the regular evil trainer theme when you're about to fight him. This feels very correct. His team has also been minorly altered.
I backported LGPE's pre-fight monologue for Giovanni in Rocket Hideout B4F. Adapted for RB's story, of course, no Cubones here. The original text is very awkward and abrupt, and it also makes the encounter theme feel much more effective in delivery. I think a lot of people can appreciate this.
I also backported Jessie and James for Rocket Hideout B4F while I was at it. I had to change their event script quite a bit for it to fit, and their walking seems...awkward. Regardless, it's functional. The rest will be done with time.
To make future dev door testing easier, I'm keeping all warps I've previously used in comments.
With the way KEP is shaping up, the Rocket Hideout can easily stay with little issue. I don't expect it to be a problem at all. Therefore, in the interest of keeping Lavender Tower's progression the same, it's being restored. I do expect some Lavender Tower floors to be nommed, though.
I expect Silph to also be salvageable but I also really hate Silph.
Oh, also, the Game Corner guard has been buffed. He sucks. They call that a guard??
The warps are currently broken for reasons I can't figure out for the life of me. Faraway Island works but is loaded in a glitched state where other warps break and are generally very unstable, while Citrine softlocks. It's progress, though.
I messed up Garnet Cavern's 2F name for some reason
Also added all the warps which are, ironically, exactly the same as the international Cerulean Cave. Added the event for Galarian Articuno but gee I hope the constant skip doesn't cause any issues
Currently just uses the RG Unknown Dungeon map, which should be changed accordingly. The warps and stuff outside of basic entry aren't implemented.
Has a halved encounter rate compared to other maps, which matches the idea that caverns don't sustain much wildlife.
Mt Moon theme may not be used in the final product.
This adds Citrine Mart, which is battle-centric. It sells all the "strongest" items and makes Max Revives renewable.
I made a specialised tileset for Citrine Mart, combining the old and new styles to make something that feels right.
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.
Includes the same healing pad that was in Lavender Tower, as a reward for getting halfway! Trainers can't currently see you, which I'll fix once I've added the trainers on 2F and 3F.
This adds the first half of an event where you will find the Galarian Birds. It is not finished yet.
It currently bugs out when Galarian Zapdos tries to run away and I don't know why. Frame-by-frame, it seems to be when the player has to move. I've tried different things to make this less bad, but they don't work.
Here's how it's meant to go:
1) Articuno flies away (done)
2) Zapdos barges past the player like Silver does in GSC (bugs out)
3) Moltres moves in front of the player and engages (not done)
If anyone has a better way to do this, please let me know!
Minor changes;
- Connection for Brunswick-Citrine looks nicer
- Celeste has a few changes to make the event run easier.
The groundwork for Brunswick Trail events has been done. Wild data, Cactus event, and Zapdos-G events are set up, plus an NPC. This also makes the Fake Tree sprite available.
I made the warp at the tunnel in Brunswick goes directly to Celeste Hill and back. Warp tile made functional.
Many bugs right now:
- Cactus doesn't disappear after battling it. Also, making this work how I want it to is hard.
- Pokemon are encountered on every tile, which is likely because it's considered to be indoors. In trying to fix this, I seemed to completely screw up the maps, so this isn't being committed. Handle this with care.
- I made a spriteset specifically for Citrine, but it doesn't seem to be working for Brunswick, likely because Brunswick is an indoor map and thus isn't just taking it.
Misc. changes:
- Moved Sandy Shocks to a 4% encounter slot in Mt. Moon Crater to be equal to Scream Tail.
- Restored the proper translation for the "rotten PRESIDENT" scientist, courtesy of Dr. Lava and Nob Ogasawara.
- Brunswick Trail and Faraway Island now use correct palettes.
- Faraway Island has been altered slightly with the same tileset as Celeste Hill
- It's now possible to fly from Citrine locations, as well as Faraway Island, and the roof of both Celadon's Mart and Mansion.
Right now I'm facing a weird bug where if you enter, you get the quote, but the fight doesn't start and it happens while you're stepping for some reason. Very odd.
To-Do List for Brunswick Trail:
- Galarian Zapdos event (give hide/show data)
- Tunnel to Celeste Hill (tileset moment)
- Couple by the sea
- Fake Tree (Cactus, may need a spriteset)
- Wild data (needs doing)
- Maybe a few trainers?
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.
Some big dubs for KEP today. This commit backports the Yellow overworld spriteset, and also adds the cat sprite for Meowth. This allows Jessie and James to use their overworld sprites in the Rocket House and serves as groundwork for backporting their other events.
There are altered Daisy and Nurse Joy sprites that may or may not warrant usage. That can be discussed.
Naturally, this also means there's a ton of overworld sprites to use elsewhere. Revamps of the "Bulbasaur house" in Cerulean and the Surfing Pikachu sprite change come to mind.
An & symbol has been backported from GSC for Jessie and James's trainer class as well.
Fixes a few small text issues, updates the readme, and rebalances the fishing rod Pokemon. Also shifted Blottle to earlier in the Pokedex, cause I felt like it.
Currently the move tutor is a little bit broken - the IDs are 1 above how they should be. Shell speculates that it's searching at the table starting from Kangaskhan due to the way the decrements shake up but it may just be making things more complicated than they are.
Big cheese code is `PrepareTradebackMoveList`, it's where things are mucking up.
Also, the code can be significantly optimised, as it's currently being adapted from the function above, `PrepareRelearnableMoveList`; It doesn't need to check levels, for example.
Note that the relearner functions properly, so use it as a reference. I may have removed something important.
Technically, we could have NO_MON as an entry which may make things shake out properly. But I'd rather have a proper fix.
This adds the Mega Punch & Mega Kick guys from FireRed and LeafGreen.
Given Mega Punch was in Mt. Moon, and GF replaced it with Thief in FRLG, I decided to change the TM to the Wing Fossil, which currently isn't obtainable outside of Mt. Moon Crater.
This map is pretty much finished, save for the map sprites for Jessie, James, and the unused Cat (aka Meowth) being imported, as well as an & symbol. This adds everything else - the marts, the Rocket Trio fight, the meeting music, the tileset, the trainer class for Jessie/James, I could go on. A ton of work well-done.
So this isn't working very well. It's halfway there and worked exactly once with what I can only describe as a cosmic ray event.
Here's how it's intended to work: Right as you open the Card Key door, Omega comes barging through, having previously been fighting with Giovanni.
The walking and stuff seems to work, but there are three issues:
- Omega's battle doesn't start, causing a softlock. `call TalkToTrainer` seems to be the iffy point. Note that this code is usually used when talking to a static entity.
- The music bugs out as Omega walks over; this may be linked to the above problem.
- Once these issues are alleviated, Omega will have to disappear, but this isn't a massive deal.
Also includes a dev door in Red's room to easily access the event, and minor code cleanup with Viridian Pre-Gym and Oak's lab - just unnecessary comments.
turns out the last time we tried removing disobedience, pokemon wouldn't attack. also reworked the texts to remove references to it, as well as some SS Anne stuff
A guy in a Safari Zone Rest House will hand you a Meltan he found lost. It's built off the Lapras guy in Silph.
Also changes the positions of some trader NPCs in the Pokemon Centres to match the others.
- Puts back Channelers to allow progress for now; currently goes to undefined places
- Tweaked two trainer parties with odd mons
- Jessie/James sprite in proper place
- Put little girl text back because it caused a problem
- One Celadon Gym cut tree removed to allow cut-less progress
- Fixed the rival picking the wrong team vs eevee
- Fixed the rival loading wrong in s.s. anne
Replaces the nonsensical Crocky static with a more fitting Wugtrio encounter. Currently (hilariously) makes the Champion theme play in the battle, working on a fix later
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!
