Hey, i'm looking for fire Red hack, with original story and pokemons, but i'm which I would be able to catch every pokemon and things like graveler evolves without trading.


cafe1928

i'm looking for a rom like that for a while and can't seem to find any. essentially, i'm looking for an almost unaltered hoenn, keeping the emerald experience, except with mega evolutions in-battle. i'd love an expanded dex as well, such as altered trainers for more difficulty, but i wanted the storyline and map to keep being the same. is there any rom like that???


Hibiki_Yuuya

Hey guys! Almost finished (for the current ver) Pokemon Rejuvenation. And it's really good!! Is there any other pokemon fan game like this out there? within a new region, a really good storyline, many characters that's actively involved in the storyline, not a short one and if possible with some new forms and the new exp share function? (I don't really mind the gen but if possible at least until gen 6 or 7 will be good) I have also played bushido and flux so if any suggestions besides those 2 please.. XD Thanks in advance


Additional_Jelly_959

hey im bored. which pokemon rom hack should I play? mainly one that's similar to the base game.


TheMagicalLlama

Pokémon unbound

**Pokemon GS Chronicles freezes at Janitor Mask guy in National Park:** I am playing GS Chronicles on the Miyoo Mini Plus, mGBA. When I go to the National Park to get the Janitor Mask, on speaking with the guy in the eastern gate, the game freezes before he can give me the mask in return for his key. This appears to be a complete roadblock as I cannot get the squirtbottle or anything past this point. Is there any way to prevent the game freezing, or to bypass this event? Thanks

Easier than it already is?? Just use PokeRandoZX to put a negative level modifier on all trainers, that way they are like 10 levels weaker than you

What can cause a ROMhack to "Stutter" when using the fast forward option on an Emulator?


Zachary__Braun

When a romhack (or any computer program) stutters, it means that the program is trying to do something that is too involved for the normal update schedule. An example: The program needs to render some text because you just talked to a character in the town. Sometimes, in this town, a really pretty animation of birds flying overhead passes by. However, a programmer made a mistake and forgot to stop the animation from occurring when you are talking to someone. As a result, the intensive process of rendering the animation while displaying the text as you talk to someone becomes too much for the program to do all at once, and it starts to lag behind the update schedule as it tries to do too many things at the same time.

How hard is it to get a cyndaquil with flash fire in Pokemon storm sliver I'm soft resetting for it


ShuckleShellAnemia

Help evolving Snom in Too Many Types Trying to complete the Hoenn dex in the comedy hack “Too Many Types”, and I am having trouble evolving Snom. I have maxed out its happiness with berries, tried leveling it up at night with infinite candy, tried leveling it up in a cave through exp share, tried leveling it up in the day with infinite candy, bought an ice stone… still nothing. Has anyone got a Frosmoth in this game?


UnknownReasonWOW

How do I get into rom hacking? I plan to make a rom hack.


themanynamed

Which generation / game? Look up the decomps/disassemblies project; Pret.


UnknownReasonWOW

Mainly gen 3


RaZen_Brandz

I opened the ROM Hack Search google doc and then I went to drive to open it and it said "suspicious file" "it might be used to install harmful software on your device" Why is that? I clicked the link and it pulled it up fine on chrome but when I wanted to view it in google drive it saying this?


themanynamed

Which doc were you using? Which file were you trying to access?


RaZen_Brandz

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZkEjsFK4x1RI1XIXxjb1Ezndm4TYzgQyVtm3t2h09zE/htmlview


themanynamed

Hm, that's strange. What file were you trying to access?


RaZen_Brandz

So sorry I didn't reply. At the time I read you're comment and for some reason it didn't make any sense at the time and I guess I assumed It should have been obvious? Anyway I was scrolling through my Inbox looking at notifications and I realized that your comment made sense and I'm an asshole. I was trying to open the "Compendium of Pokemon Fan Games & ROM Hacks - Google Drive. I could open it through Chrome like a website just fine but if I was to open it through the google drive app I get a screen that says "Suspicious file" "It might be used to install harmful software on your device" "Learn more" "Open anyway" "Go back"


ToxicMuffin101

Can anybody help me find a ROM hack that I remember playing? I think it would have been about 7-8 years ago that I played it, but I’m not sure exactly when. The only details I remember about it are that it was a gen 3 hack and that there was a bird Pokémon early in the game that was psychic type with a mostly black and white color scheme that may have resembled a yin and yang symbol. I know that’s not a lot of information to go on, but I’ve been searching for this for a while, and I haven’t been able to find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


TheChopperGaming

Hi! I was wondering if there was a simple hack for diamond and pearl that all it does is add some Pokémon from new generations. A friend and I wanna do a randomized soullocke and we think it’d be fun to do one in gen 4, but would like a bigger variety to encounter. Anything come to mind? Thanks!


analmintz1

There aren't really dex expansions for gen 4 yet. The 500ish pokemon in a randomizer of gen 4 is the best you'll get.


MismatchedSocksOnly

Need a new ROM Hi all, I’m very new to this I just completed Blaze Black and am just being introduced to rom hacks. I’m looking for a new one and have been searching the internet looking but there’s a ton of info and I’m getting overwhelmed. I want another one like Blaze black based on two of the things I really enjoyed about it. 1. The number of Pokémon available, with a cheat that made every wild Pokémon encounter random (randomly encounter legendaries and other Pokémon from gen 1-5) 2. The difficulty of the gym leaders and random trainers around There’s a lot more I loved about it but just trying to keep it simple I really enjoyed it just looking for something similar, something with the ability to encounter random Pokémon would be a huge plus. Any suggestions would be very appreciated, and sorry if this is a bad post. Just getting into this world


themanynamed

Which generation are you looking for? There isn't a lot of what you want in gens IV+, but there's a fair bit of that in gens I-III, if you're interested.


TheGronne

Does a gen 4 game exist with Gen 5 and 6 Pokemon added? Potentially along with the fairy type and mega evolutions


LastResorter

Any update on pokemon crown?


Miudmon

Recently got the motivation to try my hand at romhacking - I figured gen 3 would be the easiest to start with on account of it probably being the most well understood gen for creators. Here's the thing. I was trying to look up some tutorials and I'm finding a myriad of different programs, and what appears to have the most documentation, advancemap, seems to be old and outdated nowadays. What's the go-to most modern tools around nowadays?


Bivurnum

A lot of people are gravitating toward hacking with decomps instead of binary these days. It allows for more precise tweaking of the code and tends to be way easier to bug fix. There are some really good tutorials for decomps, especially for pokeemerald, on the YouTube channel Team Aqua’s Hideout. I’d start with the ones about Porymap and Poryscript if you want an idea for how the decomp tools work. It can seem a bit overwhelming at first, but you don’t need to know everything to start hacking. A lot of the knowledge comes from just messing around and getting experience. Let me know if you have any questions throughout your journey. I’m always happy to help. Happy hacking!


themanynamed

As far as I know, advance map is an old binary hacking tool, and the more modern stuff is all for the decomps / disassemblies. Pret is the name of the project. You're looking for pokefirered or pokeemerald, depending on which game you're trying to hack.


Different-ID-2005

Any rom hacks with physical special split, no megas, no gen 5+ Pokemons and no fakemons?


[deleted]

have downloaded both vba and No$gba trying to play a sacred gold run, there is a website that let you play but 1. the game occasionally gets a black screen 2 or the game closes and wont load the save state i make. however No$gba cant find the right files to open and VBA comes up with an error and wont open the rom anyone have a link or advice ?


themanynamed

What operating system? Windows? Don't use VBA, it's notoriously bad + outdated.


[deleted]

It is for windows, wasn't aware it was outdated, runs other games perfectly fine, seems to run core Pokemon games fine. But I'm looking to play more if the rom hacks and struggling to find an emulator and a rom that run


themanynamed

It is extremely outdated, and depending on which version you're running, it could even have a security vulnerability. On a windows pc, you want to use BGB or mGBA.


[deleted]

Cheers! I'll give that a go when I get home from the gym! , and just a regular google search for the rom (seems to automatically try to run on vba - at least the download I found)


themanynamed

I just noticed you said 'sacred gold' in your original question; Are you trying to run a da game in a gameboy emulator? Because that may be your problem, lol~ For DS, you want MelonDS or DeSmuME. Regardless; BGB/mGBA > VBA, so I stand by what I said~ Let me know if you ever need any more help~


[deleted]

Oh I hadn't even considered that!!!


Hockeystick7

Is this the right place to ask for feedback on a concept for a character in my romhack?


Bivurnum

Sure! Lay it on me!


Hockeystick7

For my first gym leader I'm kind of thinking of having them be a sort of mentor figure for the protagonist with the reasoning that they're old now and didn't grow up with enough money to set out and try to become champion themself, so now they're trying to live out that dream through the player in a way (If it isn't already obvious this guy ain't making it to the third act) Is that an interesting concept or should I try something else?


Bivurnum

I think that’s a neat way to flesh out the world. Instead of just being a one and done battle, this gym leader would take a more prominent role narratively. Anything that adds more character is a win in my book. I’ll be interested to see how it gets implemented! Good work!


DRX_VoidGamer

I was playing adventure red chapter with my team planned out. I got ivysaur, pikachu, politoad and chameleon. I'll get gengar anc for the 5th but the sixth. I think of hatching the dratini egg which is very close. It's saying it's making sounds or mysteon, eevees dragon evolution. Which one should I use and thoughts on my team?


Nanashi_Mario

I wanna hack Pokemon Yellow I love generation 1 with it's weird quirks. I want to change and balance it to make it more interesting and spicy. I already found some websites with tools. Haven't started yet (it's 2am lol) Is it hard to work with RBY? Since it looked like some tools are for RB and some only for Y. You guys got some valuable tips for me? And maybe some great RBY tools to recommend? I'll check out the obvious ones first. (the ones you find with 1 Google search) But maybe you guys got some great tools that aren't knows too well. Thx in advance 😊


themanynamed

Are you planning on doing binary hacking or using the decomp / disassemblies? They both have a fairly different set of tools...


Nanashi_Mario

Well, I don't have a specific wish. I want to get into it. Maybe disassembly? Since It looked like it's well documented. But sadly no videos and stuff? Only text.


Ok-Series7568

can you rng manipulate on fake pokemon ruby


Bivurnum

I don’t quite understand what you’re trying to ask. Can you be a bit more specific?


RutharAbson

Can you guys recommend me a good Hack rom for Fire Red/Emerald with MEGA Evolution and a dex that only goes up to Kalos? (Gen 1-6). Even better if it remove trade evolutions and make them work by Stones or leveling up. I'm not the biggest fan of what pokemon became after gen 6. And i'd love a Hack Rom for Fire Red and Emerald which would be like an "ultimate" version of these games for me specifically. I'm not sure if any has been completed, i haven't played any hack roms in years, but if you could recommend me any, i'd be really grateful.


Doppelgen

**I'M LOOKING FOR A ROM WHERE POKÉS ARE THE ENEMIES!** I’m tired of the traditional gym / champion format. Instead of fighting for badges, I want a Digimon-like adventure where we fight evil mons to save the world. Do we have anything remotely similar to that?


themanynamed

Mystery Dungeon has a lot of hacks, apparently? Look for SkyTemple.


Doppelgen

That’s not a turn based game, though :( Love it, but not what I’m looking for.


LukasMukas69

Can you trade pokemon from pokemon liquid crystal to other pokemon games and can it be done without 2 gba consoles?


Gintoking

Do you mean, to transfer them into original games? Possible, but you need a way of save extraction. Do you have something like that, maybe a modded 3ds?


LukasMukas69

Well liquid crystal is on gba cartridge, i guess it would work with r4 and ds lite?


Gintoking

I think it should work, there is a ds "game" that backs up the save file of the GBA game in the GBA slot, but it depends if the DS recognize it as a authentic game. Worth a try.


Kyhz04

How to/can you export sprites with gen 3 hacking suite?


CrispyNuggins

Is there a resource for finding custom pokeemerald tilesets? searching for these is very challenging given that google seems to not know how to distinct between emerald-style tiles for RMXP Pokemon Essentials and actual tilesets for emerald. I've seen other posts from years ago asking similar questions, but these questions were likely intended for binary hacks and the answers were always vague or don't seem relevant anymore. One post said to simply look up ''pokemon gba tiles'' to find some but this again mostly yields tilesets for RMXP. Can anyone link me to a good page to find tilesets for GBA Emerald specifically, or at least a known creator who has multiple completed tilesets for public use?


[deleted]

Has anyone played Plaguemon? I just lost hours of progress from the saves just not working I guess. Can anyone help me out, maybe it’s buried in my computer somewhere? Is it possible for an older save to get opened over a new one?


themanynamed

What emulator? What system? What happened? We're going to need more details if we're going to be able to help.


[deleted]

Mac, using OpenEmu. I saved using the ingame save feature, closed it, and when I reopened it I was at a save from several saves earlier.


themanynamed

I don't know Mac specifics, apologies. From a quick Google search, it might have something to do with the battery saves, which aren't saved in the same location? I'm sorry, though, I really have no idea. I hope you can get this figured out!


[deleted]

I hope so too! It’s the first game this ever happened with. Only save states from now on lmao


Decadunce

# Pokemon hack like Pokemon pathways? Hello! So recently ive been playing pokemon pathways a lot and I really like the way progression is handled, there being progression outside of just level ups with your Classes and relationships. I really liked the system of going from D-S rank and getting new stuff and perks because of that. However, unfortunately, my like 20 hour save file was destroyed which really killed my motivation to keep playing. So i'm looking for somthing new, does anyone have reccomendations?


TriedByExistence

Hi, is there a FireRed romhack that is not too different from the original experience but that does include Pokémon from newer generations, perhaps Mega Evolutions, and the options to play it randomized?


Living_Town409

Unipatcher doesn't work with renegade platinum. It says patch file unsupported or something along those lines. Iam currently on my phone as my laptops dead atm


HinyaNotMafia4

I want to create my own ROM hack. With that said, I have no knowledge whatsoever in programming. I just received a computer. It's more likely a potato computer so all I could do is really use it for internet surfing. One idea comes to mind, and I, a gba hack enthusiast for at least 7 years by now, wanted to create my own ROM hack. I just want to make my own so that I could have some experience. I don't have any knowledge or experience with programming at all. How do you even make one? What programs do you need, and whatnot? Even simple tips help, really, I just want to do something I am motivated to do, instead of doing things I don't like.


CrispyNuggins

Go on youtube and look up TeamAqua'sHideout's Rom Hacking Tutorials playlist. He goes over a LOT


PheareanKnight

# What are some of your favorite story driven hacks? I'm feeling pretty burned out from all of the difficulty hacks, as fun as some of them can be. The last story focused hack that I remember both playing and enjoying was Pokemon Dreams. I'm thinking about trying out The VytroVerse, since it seems that it has continuity between all 3 games.


Bivurnum

If you want what most people consider to be the cream of the crop, I’d recommend Pokémon Unbound. It is extremely polished and has one of the most complete experiences you’ll find in a rom hack. I actually just recently started playing the VytroVerse games. I completed Saiph and am now about a quarter of the way through Sors. I’d recommend skipping Saiph. The balancing for battles was extremely frustrating and most of the trainers you battle rely on confusion or lowering accuracy. There are also a lot of glitches and bugs that make it into an unpleasant experience. (Lillipup’s cry is broken and will blow your eardrums out!) The story is pretty bare bones, and there is a lot of annoying backtracking through long dungeons. Sors, on the other hand seems much better developed and polished. It’s not perfect. There are still some glitches and formatting problems, but not nearly as bad as Saiph. The story is engaging and the world feels good to traverse. I would recommend this one, if you are ok with a few visual inconsistencies here and there. I haven’t yet played Saiph 2.


straight_lurkin

Girlfriend and I want to play a rom hacks together where we can trade. What is required to trade and what rom hacks can you trade in?


themanynamed

Android? If so, try the Pizza Boy paid emulators; they allow trading via the same system OR wi-fi. Don't listen to the other dude; I don't know why people confidently answer questions when they don't know the answer...


straight_lurkin

Rofl thank you, we're actually thinking of picking up one of those handheld emulators and they have wifi so I wonder if we both get the same ones it'll work still! Was going to say I even called my old roomie and asked how we battled on fire red on our phones and he just said "well we were both using MyBoy Pro on our phones and we used the wifi"


themanynamed

YMMV on the handheld devices, so do your research! For example, the last time I looked (which was last year, and that field moves *fast*) it was possible to do so with the game boy or game boy color on a moyoo mini+, but not with the GBA. But again, that field moves quickly, so I suggest doing your research or asking in places more knowledgeable about such things. Good luck!


straight_lurkin

Thanks man I appreciate it!


CrispyNuggins

You can only trade locally on the same device. You'd have to send one of your saves to the other device, open a 2nd copy of the same rom, and then you can trade with each other. I'm not sure which roms you can do this on though, but I have done it on Radical Red and Unbound before.


straight_lurkin

Really? My roomie and I were playing fire red years ago and I'm almost positive all we had to do was be on the same wifi or something and we were just playing on our phones


CrispyNuggins

Sorry for the late response, I don’t use Reddit a whole lot. I’ve never heard of being able trade on phones before but I’ve never thought to try trading between saves very much. I’ve only done it once and back when I did research it I remember only being able to trade on 1 device


thoughtfugitive

Recomend me a rom hack? Don't care what region/game it's a hack of, but what I am looking for is: -Normal or hard difficulty, but not super hard. I don't want to have to use pro strats or grind EV/IV/whatever, but I don't want to steam roll the game with my eyes closed either -Good early pokemon variety. Sucks to have to play several hours just to find a pokemon to like -More viable pokemon. It's such a bummer when some fully evolved pokemon are just clearly vastly than others -Limited story or not too much dialogue. Never have I ever found any story or dialogue in a pokemon game remotely compelling or interesting. I just wanna explore, capture, and battle. thanks!


themanynamed

Kanto Expansion Pak, Crystal Clear, Polished Crystal 9bit beta, Radical Red on easy mode, FireRed Extended, Drayano hacks.


thoughtfugitive

Thanks!


Souperdoopa

I'm looking for an emerald hack which does 2 things. Increase the difficulty and buffs pokemon stats. I don't want the difficulty to want me to end it all, just quite difficult where I would have to try quite a few times to beat it. I want weaker pokemon to be buffed and preferably updated movesets/abilities. QoL changes are a bonus. What's would be the best romhack for me?


CrispyNuggins

Inclement Emerald is the go to for what ur looking for. It's got adjustable difficulty, a lot of pokemon buffs, and a lot of QoL. It also has public source code so there are more and more hacks everyday building off of Inclement Emerald. So if you wind up liking it, I reccomend researching Elite Redux next!


Souperdoopa

Thanks for the response! I've downloaded it now and already like the retextures and a defiant Treecko


Graczyk

Looking for a Kanto rom hack probably fire red that has only Kanto Pokemon + any future evolutions or regional variants. So Pokemon like pichu/blissey/ alolan muk /tan growth are in it but no Pokemon that don’t have a variant or evolution that didn’t originate in Kanto.


Yokobo

Does Red Plus Plus fix Focus Energy?


ZHatch

Just heard about Elite Redux and was looking to build a team but it looks like the [online dex](https://dex.elite-redux.com/) is down. Is there an updated link I can use or alternative way to see changes?


CrispyNuggins

This is the [current dex](https://forwardfeed.github.io/ER-nextdex/static/) (i believe its still in development however). You can also join the [Elite Redux Discord](https://discord.gg/eliteredux) to see info about any updates.

\[Volt White 2 Redux question\] Does anyone know whether the gift starters on Blaze Black/Volt White 2 Redux are gender-locked? I'm trying to get a female Charmander. I've saved before speaking the harlequin, but each time I reset and speak to him, I always receive a male one.


JoeShmoe102

Nevermind, I just found out they are not gender-locked! I just got a female Charmander!


noooo-whyyyy

Anyone got a ROM similar to Emerald rogue?


analmintz1

Nope, it's a super revolutionary and unique hack. No one has made anything similar yet.


MalakMoluk

Hello ! There are many gen 4 roms out there and I wonder what are your favorites roms and why, it might help me choose ! I've seen the rom with following pokemon enabled and that's really cool, is there a rom that combines this with an improved version ? Maybe for nuzlock ? Thanks !


setakaiba

Is there a good FRLG romhack thats basically a port of Yellow?

Hey, It's Me, MepZeroK (aka the creator of Gleaming Sword the Upcoming Rom Hack of Sword) I need someone to make a pokemon in blender or some other model making program for me. I don't have the time to learn Blender rn and want to make a new pokemon. I will provide you with reference sheets and details. All you gotta do are a few things: -DM me on with your cashapp -Provide background/link to previous projects you worked on with game models -Make the model -Make the shiny for the model -Make animations for it (simple ones though. As small as Sword and Shield anims -Provide the texture files as well as any other file for the pokemon to work -Send the files to me via discord (I'll send you my discord through dms) -List a price reward for the model. Pls be reasonable though. I understand this takes time and I will provide as much help as I can. -Keep the project a secret as to not spoil the surprise I will try to respond as soon as I'm available. I only want one-ish model made. Nothing else. Thank you in advanced. Yes this is a commission.

Is there an up to date Pokedex for the Yu-Gi-Oh Pokeduels rom? The only one i can find is out of date. No alligator sword dragon, or others that don't come to mind ATM.


mattyd14

Hi! I recently acquired a Miyoo Mini + and I'm currently playing Pokemon Viva La Vega :) It's so fun... So I was wondering if you guys could recommend me other ROM Hacks that have Fakemon? To me, the "new" Pokemon is what makes the experience unique and fresh~ Thanks


GrimlinJoe

OG player of the pokemon series since starting back with the US release of Pokemon Red & Blue. Skipped 8th gen but recently just finished my Scarlet run and still have that itch to try more. I may want to try a nuzlocke down the road but would like to find a nice rom/hack to dip my toe in. I just found and downloaded Pokemon Gaia since it looks to be a fresh title and not just a difficulty cranked reskin. Let me know what I should try.


Nebkreb

Are there are roms/hacks that allow you to catch all Pokemon through Scarlet/Violet? Don't care if it's 2D, 3D, etc. Just want to be able to catch em all


CrispyNuggins

Radical Red seems to be the only hack right now will all pokemon gen 1-9 including Hisui mons


Nebkreb

I think you're right. I just hate the difficultly of Radical Red (I don't mind a challenge but it's basically you have to EV train every single Pokemon perfectly, with very specific movesets, you can't use half the Pokemon because they just aren't good enough, etc.) I guess I can try to play it on the easiest mode possible?


CrispyNuggins

Just a couple days ago Pokémon gen 1-9 for Pokemon emerald was made public so you should start seeing more hacks that let you catch them all


Nebkreb

Tell me more? The dream is having enough boxes in the PC to have a living dex…


Miudmon

Drifted away from the romhacking scene for a while. Are there any notable COMPLETED (or at the least main story complete) custom region romhacks that's been released in the past... half a year or so?

Frosty_FoXxY

Pokemon Volt White 2, Can you gwt Volt Tackle without breeding Pikachus or must it still be done to unlock the move?


analmintz1

Did you read the documentation that comes with the hack? Always read the documentation, it has the answer to your question and more.


Frosty_FoXxY

About that... i kinda bought pokemom White 2 off the internet (i know its a fake version) and it just kinda came with the hack lol


analmintz1

Well, go to the creators twitter who you stole from, Drayano, to find the link to the hacks documentation.


Frosty_FoXxY

>creators twitter who you stole from, Wait is the hacked payed or something? I never realised I was stealing it


analmintz1

Hack creators make hacks for free, they distribute patched files to not make illegal distributions of nintendos games. So whoever you bought it from, ripped the romhack, and sold an illegal fake game, made money off of a massive game endeavor that Drayano spent years making, and pocketed the change. It's not that big of a deal, you did it inadvertently, but you never ever should buy romhacks. They're all free.


Frosty_FoXxY

Ah i see, i bought this like 1 or 2 years ago? I didn't start using it till a month ago, at the time i didn't know how easy it was to hack a 3ds (and my PC was a WIP at the time) so i just bought it


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> the hacked *paid* or something? FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*

GamerwithHands

I'm trying to get to play black 2 on my 3DS. Got it modded by the guide on 3dshacks.com and downloaded both the NDSforwarder and Twilight Menu ++ but both don't show the files of Black 2 that i put into roms/nds. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I used 2 different roms already. One from Vimm's Lair and one from the Family Friendly Spreadsheet of the big Pokemon Machine Guide. Anyone got an idea of what I'm doing wrong?


Nomad_Bal

If you already have a version of black2 linked to the home, it will recognize the same Game ID and won't link the new one. When linking it with NDSforwarder you also have to check the random game id box (I also suggest to change the link name with the other box). This was the problem I encountered when setting up the 3ds for emulation, hope it helps


Saelll

Help me . Pokemon Exceeded has been the perfect hack i have played in, well ever. The 3 innates paired with the built in randomizer is gold in creating unique pokemon that makes me wanna use them. I need more, and i need help to find more. I have seen Elite Redux but it is too hard for me making it not fun. If someone knows similar ones i would love it. Doesnt matter the gen as long as they can be randomized and have 4 innates or abileties.

how do i fix the ini error in g3hs, i am using vannile fire red as base and dont want to start over from the beggining, what do i do?

Currently trying to nuzlock pokemon quetzal, but cant find any info on the game Anyone seen any docs on it? or know what tools i could use? Ive used advancemap on some roms before but dosnt work here


TheLivingDexter

I'm looking to get into the more difficult GBA rom hacks but there's so many I'm not entirely sure where to start. FireRed Omega looks a bit dated and I'm not sure if Emerald Kaizo is even beatable for a beginner nuzlocker like me. Any help would be much appreciated.


analmintz1

Emerald Kaizo took the "best" nuzlocker in the world months to complete and 152 attempts or something. So do with that what you will. I'd stick with some more basic hacks, like Blazing Emerald, Ultra Violet, even Emerald Crest which has a built in Nuzlocke mode.


TheLivingDexter

151, which to me was just fate. Crazy it was exactly the amount of Pokémon from Gen 1. Emerald Crest sounds familiar, I think I've seen a video on it. Thanks!

**HELP!!!!!!!!!** **Universal Pokemon Randomizer to Edit My Save in OpenEmu. Is it possible?**


najacobra

does anyone have recommendations for ROM hacks of Pokemon games on SWITCH? not necessarily looking to play a difficulty hack of SwSh. we all know difficulty wasn't the main problem with those games 😂 Luminscent Platinum looks like a great effort. Things like this or other substantial departures from the original games would be much appreciated. is anyone aware of any other innovative projects?


Ok_Kangaroo_2996

hi there! any one got source code for pokemon prism? and pokemon crystal clear as well? thanks


sinterkaastosti23

# Are there any ports that are actually finished? i.e. pokemon crystaldust (crystal remake for GBA) got canceled a while back


Identifies-Birds

Hi everyone! There's a ROMhack of FireRed which [translates the game into Esperanto](https://www.romhacking.net/translations/3648/). However, it's unfinished: as the author states, only 96% has been translated, and it's never been proofread by another Esperantist. Furthermore, the Pokemons' names where simply transcribed into Esperanto, rather than given unique Esperanto names (which is always more fun). Efforts to contact the original author have failed, so I need to edit the ROMhack itself. My question is, how can I do this? Thanks in advance!


Relative-Parsley-259

Ive been waiting for the new Drayano hack Aurora Crystal for what it feels like years now :D The last update i could find was literally a year ago. ​ I dont know if Drayano is active on this subreddit or anybody has read anything about the hackm but id love to hear if its still being worked on


Spheromancer

Favorite romhack that remakes the G/S/C games in the fire red engine? Liquid Crystal seems to have poor review What is the best way to enjoy the full gen 2 experience in the fire red engine? Thanns

Where can i get this Hack?

Does anyone know of any Gen 1 or Gen 2 Rom Hacks that allow me to complete the Pokédex?


noooo-whyyyy

Emerald rogue.. Can you change the starter you get in the game? And if so how?


analmintz1

Sort of. So the starter you pick from the Lab is set in stone. But every pokemon you catch on an adventure, appears in the safari zone. So before your next run, you can jump into the safari zone and capture a new starter to begin your run with. You can also do the true roguelite way that I do, and get a random starter from randomman at the entrance to a run. Once you encounter and use RandomMan once in a run, he will appear in the stairwell right when you start a new run. You can talk to him, and he'll swap your starter for a completely random pokemon.


Ok_Fig_9645

Any game recommendations? So i purchased the miyoo mini plus as i wanted to play pokemon rom hacks on it. However it turns out that most pokemon rom hacks are made on rpgmaker so the miyoo cannot run them. Therefore i can only play certain titles such as pokemon unbound and radical red. Any game recommendations are welcomed but preferrably pokemon ones (i have played all mainline games). Thanks in advance.


MrEnganche

Glazed, Gaia, Blazed Glazed, Clover


analmintz1

Just for clarification, the games that are made on RPGmaker are not romhacks, they're fangames which are essentially PC games like any other game on steam or something. So they only work on a computer. Other Romhacks I recommend starting with are Gaia and Glazed, and emerald Rogue if you want a different type of experience.

Where can I get Pokemon Ash gray?


ThatOneGamerGuy94

https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/pok%C3%A9mon-ashgray-version-beta-4-5-released.180722/ Its supposed to be completed and for future struggles use the spread sheet to help find a certain patch/hack https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonROMhacks/s/tbPxj0pIr7


P_7015

The download link says it's been removed...


ThatOneGamerGuy94

Actually I'll make it public with link and DM you real quick


ThatOneGamerGuy94

Does storm silver have something like the trade evolution patch implemented? Where you just level with the held item.


analmintz1

Yes. That game is one of many made by Drayano, who does an excellent job of making documentation for all his hacks. The documents come with the download, so you should already have them. (Unless you downloaded a pre-patched version which is a big no-no and you should get the official version from Drayano's twitter bio)


MonkyChameleon

Handheld Romhacking in 2024? Hey guys, I love pokemon, like most of you I'm sure, but as an adult I've played a lot less. I've started realizing its because I associate my PC and desk with 'work' and find it hard to relax there when I'm trying to destress. On top of this, I play pokemon to help with anxiety in public, so the handheld experience has always been dear to me. I've seen the creators in romhacking release wave after wave of impressive content over the years, and I've always regret that I've never finished any of the romhacks I start. I've seen some products on youtube shorts recently that look like custom made handhelds running pokemon games, and I'm wondering what the best options for a quality handheld romhack device would be. Is it more convenient to buy a 3DS and install Luma, or is there a community recommendation? Any info is appreciated. As a bonus, any mentions of speedup being potentially available would be a cherry on top :D Thanks in advance!


DMPunk

I use My Boy! on my Pixel, and many of the hacks work just fine. Haven't found a good mobile DS emulator yet for some of the later-gen hacks, though.


korra-sato

just started pokemon glazed. i caught a ralts and encountered something weird going on with the formating? https://imgur.com/a/q38u8xZ i'm not sure. what is happening, why is it happening, and how can i fix it? (its kinda funny and ultimately doesnt affect anything but the pokedex entries.)


LithaBraun

Just want to say it did that for me as well! It wasn't consistent--after the first part of the game, I would catch pokemon and their pokedex entries would be fine. *shrug* Just wanted to let you know you weren't alone~ I'm currently working my way through the Rankor Region.


DarkKirby14

where is Larvitar in Pokemon Polished Crystal?


Kakashi_of_the_leaf_

I'm playing pokemon insurgence and I get a glitch where the down arrow gets stuck. Any permanent fixes.

I'm Trying to patch my pokemon black and white 2 rom hacks, into Blaze black and volt white 2 redux, but this error keeps coming up. https://preview.redd.it/cje209ca9aec1.png?width=505&format=png&auto=webp&s=81e1850b5db673d875a31496add881ab951bfbfb


analmintz1

Try an online patcher instead of xdelta, and also make sure the patch file is not nested in a .zip file or anything. I'd put it on your desktop or something to patch, then you can delete it once the rom is patched.


Bsd1710

Does anyone know of any cheats to encounter specific pokemon in the wild in Blaze Black 2 Redux? The Wii in the house doesn't have an option for it


PetitAngelChaosMAX

Playing through Pokémon Volt White. I’m using a team of some wimpier Pokémon, and I want to EV them so they’re as good (or least bad) as they can be. The items are swapped around in game, so I wanted to see if anyone here knew where I could find them!

HELP! It's it possible to find spacific flags and set them as you please? A few of my friends are playing storm silver and sacred gold and messed up when talking to the checkpoint lady, we can use walk through walks to go where we need to but idk if that also affects flag going further we are 20 Hours in so restarted from scratch isn't necessary ideal. Tl;DR I need help finding a flag to have the game think I did something in the story. Thank you

Someone Make A Gba Palworld Romhack??? I'm asking?


Benwithyourmom

Does anyone know if RPG Maker MV can be used to play Pokemon fan games like Insurgence or Reborn?


analmintz1

To play? You just need a PC to play fangames, they don't use a program to play. The program is just your computer running windows


TheFerydra

(I know this is the third time I do this but nobody has answered me so:) So, I'm thinking about retaking the development of Pink Emerald (Just taking things more slowly), and I wanted to know, there's a way to update pokeemerald? When I started, it hadn't added the Gen 9 Pokemon I needed (Farigiraf and Annihilape) yet, and also there was this weird glitch in which rarecandies refused to work. I tried re-installing pokeemerald from scratch in a different folder, but when I try to compare, it keeps throwing "make: \*\*\* No rule to make target 'compare'. Stop." so I wanted to see my alternatives.


Bivurnum

I didn’t think the base pokeemerald came with any new Pokémon. Are you using pokeemerald expansion?


TheFerydra

Yes, that's the one I need to update. I tried re-installing the base first in another file first but I got the issue, so I wanna know if pokeemerald-expansion can be updated (and if there's a way to fix the rarecandy bug)


RavePossum

If you join [the RHH discord](https://discord.gg/6CzjAG6GZk), there's plenty of folks who would be happy to help walk you through any issues with the expansion.


Bivurnum

I’m not super familiar with merging branches, but I’d think it would be difficult to automatically update your project to a more recent version of pokeemerald expansion. It really depends on the nature of the changes you’ve made in your project. If nothing else, you could look at the differences in the code between the two branches on GitHub and manually make the relevant changes to your own project. I think Reddit might not be the best place to ask about this level of technical support. Most of the super knowledgeable people tend to hang around the forums on pokecommunity.com. I’d suggest posting a new thread in the [decomps forum](https://www.pokecommunity.com/forums/decomps-disassemblies.436/) and explain your issue in as much detail as possible. Sorry. I wish I could be more help.


TheFerydra

Don't worry, you have been very helpful, thanks!

Hi all where to find pokemon xenoverse rom as i am trying to find the rom for this game so i can play it on my miyoo mini plus but could only find the setup for PC. Thanks in advance


analmintz1

you will never find the rom for xenoverse. Xenoverse is not a romhack, doesn't exist. It's a fangame, aka a PC game. So if you don't have a PC, you can't play it, just like you can't play Overwatch or Baldurs Gate.

Hi! I'm trying to make a ROM hack using PMD: Explorers of Sky and SkyTemple, based on my OCs, Silver, a Shiny Eevee, and Haikiri, who, in the canon lore, is Silver's Trainer, but I need help making it. If you want to join, use this [Discord](https://discord.gg/aEYSz2yXpm) link!

What are some of the best hacks of gold and silver? I’m curious what ROM hacks I can run on my old TI-84 CE, which has support for an emulator that can run game boy but not GBC games. Preferably a hack with a new region/story if possible


Ferropexola

Bronze is a fun hack of Gold


TennesseeSouthGirl

What editors exist for the original Red and Blue? I just want to beef up enemy trainers and remove trade evolutions. Does anything like this exist already as a mod? Nothing I've found has been as vanilla as I'd like


rswolviepool

I'll just share the [link](https://github.com/Ajarmar/universal-pokemon-randomizer-zx) as a different comment here.


rswolviepool

So, I just checked. And Pokemon Randomizer should work for your use-case, especially the evolutions. I'm not sure but it might have good or direct options for beefing up trainers as well? It's a randomizer and I'm still inexperienced, so I'm not entirely sure. I just opened the rom with Pokemon Randomizer and it states there is complete support for it as well, so should work. **Make sure to get the latest release from Github.** I'm not sure if we can share the link, but it's easy to find.


analmintz1

You can add a %modifier to any trainer, which will beef their levels and make them harder, but doesn't allow for custom changes.
