[HotM April] Pokémon - Liquid Crystal

[Da Man]

Sorry if it's been asked already but where can I find HM Whirlpool?

And I love the surfing music, good remix of the Great Sea from LoZ Wind Waker.

[tifaluv]

I worked hard on that post and even reported new bugs and you all just ignored it? whatever then see if i care anymore

[shdwstar2417]

Hey I was just wondering on 2 things . The first is when can we expext Beta 3? I'm enjoying the game and can't wait for the next Beta to come out. and the 2nd thing is is anyone gonna create and updated Walkthrough because as i was going through it I noticed that alot of stuff was different cause of the current Beta that's out. Thank You!!!

[DTY16]

hey, i am currently in Kanto but when i talk to Erika, she acts like i already fought her. is there a cheat code or something that can make me fight her because i cant beat the game like this!

[Vanitas~]

Umm... I hate to say it, but the 2nd Beta just came out, so don't get your hopes up for a new release for a while.

As for a walkthrough, someone has made one for Beta 2, although I'm too lazy to check... just look in people's sigs for a link.


Edit: Just to be a sweetheart, his name is dirk123. just go back a page and click the link in his sig. ^^

[Dracs]

The game is great.
But I find it too easy.
Pls, is there any way to "power up" trainer, all at once (like increases all trainer pokemon level by 5) ?
Because all the programm I have found so far allow only to modify once at time.
Thanks ^^

[shdwstar2417]

In Regards to my other message I just noticed that I was only playing Beta 1 so I was wrong. But is there a way to keep going but just patch Beta 2 over it to continue or do I gotta start all over ?

[dirk123]

It is best to start over, unless you want certain bugs/glitches to appear (bug which are created by patching Beta 2 over beta 1).

[shdwstar2417]

Yeah you're right.... kinda didn't take that advice and tried it already. Now I can't get into the Fan Club to get the Magnet Pass. Oh well.LOL

[neger]

does pokemon like haunter need to be traded to evolve i need to know fast cause im in the beginning and i want gastly if he will evolve to gengar

[Roxasabridged]

Yeah, it should roughly lvl 40+ For it to evolve.

[Pokemon Nigh tBlack Version]

whoah, you guys are really haulingass on this game. pardon my french ;) im working on a hack named Pokemon Stadium - Blaze Cup. its just as the title suggests. a stadium - based game. i have been looking far and wide for a good g/s/c remake, and i think i found one! i just downloaded the ips file, and i will tell you about any bugs i may encounter. thanks guys, for ending my search. i hope it gets finished and i hope it is better!

[iTzKaizer]

does pokemon like haunter need to be traded to evolve i need to know fast cause im in the beginning and i want gastly if he will evolve to gengar

No, Haunter and other pokemons that evolve from trading can't evolvue due to a glitch in the evolution. I believed the same too, and started asking why it didn't evolved. It was in lv 40 and: OK, I think it's at level 45 then... lv 45: Maybe lv 50?... lv 55: This is.. such a pain! My hanuter doesn't evolve! lv 60: I give up, he won't evolve... never!

But you can get a gengar in lavender town.

[mattattack]

hi linkandzelda. I like your hack a lot and I have to agree on this one I think this hack is better then zels shiny gold although I still support (hope he gets back soon and maybe he might add something. Maybe Hoenn or Sinnoh)

[Air.]

Looks very nice. Good job on the awards. Downloading~

[boomer2006]

I am in the game looking for the legendary's and I noticed you cannot get out of the cave if you bypassed groudon. I am using beta 2.1. The reason is it will not let you dive down to back track, and there is no exit ladders in the dragon den.

[zachattach9]

when you release a beta 3, will i be able to repatch the game over my beta 2, or will i have to start over?

[Zado]

I thought the same, but if you go back to near the water you appeared after diving, look well, very well, and you will see one of those dark entrances on a wall. Its near the said water. Try looking around it, mainly to the left part ( left up, left down, etc )

[Abnegation]

OKay I Have A BIG problem!!
Could someone help???

I'm at the pokemon league and i saved before but when i defeat it i go back to the begining after the credits! What do i do? It doesn't save a the hall of fame!


Help is much appreciated!

[monkeyboi]

what do you mean after you beat the elite four you should go back to new bark.

if you mean it didn't save are you using the right save type?

[Abnegation]

Ya its when i beat the E4 i dont get the option to continue my game. yeah i've tried all the save types on VBa and they haven't been working for me!

[dirk123]

Then you probably haven't used the "Fire Red save patch".
I won't post the file (because it is against the rules), so google it.

[thedgr05]

TO: Zeikku

hi it´s me again. I have a few more questions and I really would like them to be Answered. In order:

1.- Have LaZ found a way to add Day/night yet? (or a placeholder) Hacklars is working on something about Day/night and I saw LaZ there, so....(it would be great to have it for Beta 3)

2.- do you need help with the Day-Care OWs? I have some, look in the attachment but, there´s only 251 in there.

3.- Are you going to re-open the safari zone? I saw a video in youtube about a cheat code that lets you go into a un-used safari in GSC. I think you (or LaZ) should make it like that.

Answer pls when you read this.

[Abnegation]

I've used a clean rom too patched properly... I really dunno what the problem is but thanks anyway!

[Pokemon Nigh tBlack Version]

Here is a short list of some of the bugs i found.
btw, i chose the female trainer.
first - the final sage in sprot tower uses jis intro text as his defeat text as well.
second - in the national park, when you are standing on the left side of the water, your reflection shows under you.
third - more of a suggestion, really, can you make the female trainer a bit more attractive?
ttyl, i have reached ekrueak and releaased the gerbils>

[Roxasabridged]

Those have already been reported.

[nig]

Can anyone help me?

well, im at the part where you face gengar in lavendar town by talking to that golden stone, but I saved an reseted just to make sure..

I started up the game.. and on the flash back parts ("Previously on ___ adventure" then it shows step 4..3..2..1..

Well, my screen turns black after step 4 and I cant seem to get it going anymore..help?
This is Beta 2.1 btw

[Pokepal17]

LaZ, well done on the OW thingy. Just one thing - add more minigames.

[zagony]

can i be PKMN Trainer Zac

Pokemon:

1.Charizard

2.Fereligator

3.Blaziken

4.Fearow

Can i be a trainer that you meet (and Battle) more than once?

[boomer2006]

I thought the same, but if you go back to near the water you appeared after diving, look well, very well, and you will see one of those dark entrances on a wall. Its near the said water. Try looking around it, mainly to the left part ( left up, left down, etc )

I also found out if you go back into the cave before the rayquaza cave you can also Fly out

[Ian758]

You know that alot of people could have problems at the beggining of the game when you are battling Zane and he sends out his Porygon, when it uses Conversion 2 and turns into a ghost type, all the starters have normal type moves till after lvl 10.. so u might wanna change that... :D

Answer pls when you read this.

well, there is/ may be a way to add day/ night, thanks to hackmew, hacklars day/ night looks a little unprofessional (no offense), the palette for his system reloads a lot, which means we'd have even more bug reports. hackmews is progressing well though.

we dont think we'll add all of those day care Ows... it would be a nice touch but we'd have to expand rom and the Ow table even more.

plans for the safari zone are undecided.

also, my network cable broke, so im out of internet on my computer, im on my ps3 , but i'll answer your questions when i can.

[Pokepal17]

Yeah to add more OWs, the ROM may have to be expanded and right now only HackMew's tools support expanded ROMs. I recommendation with the OWs would be to use MD sprites for the big legendaries and MD sprites for other Pokes (I have a tut on resizing which should be helpful :P). I wouldn't use RSE's sprites coz they don't look good imo. I hope you don't have to expand the ROM coz it may cause difficulties. But you could always insert LZ77 images into a clean ROM and copy/paste the hex data :P

[joamaravar]

How do I go from one beta to the next successfully?

[ShaneRusling2121]

...Hmmm..How do you find red? And how exactly do you get to the Orange Islands. And dirk123 before you yell Check the Walkthrough in your signature, Ill have you know I did. And All I got was weird Fish Shapes Square Boxes and ~ symbols.

[dirk123]

...Hmmm..How do you find red? And how exactly do you get to the Orange Islands. And dirk123 before you yell Check the Walkthrough in your signature, Ill have you know I did. And All I got was weird Fish Shapes Square Boxes and ~ symbols.

No one else had a problem with my file, so it must be your computer. Or to be more specififc, your Microsoft Word.

But to answer your question. After getting the Kanto badges, challenge the Elite 4 again (like the original FR/LG Elite 4 Round 2). After beating them, Red will appear in Mt Silver.

How do I go from one beta to the next successfully?
You don't. Just patch the latest beta on a CLEAN rom and start from the beginning.

[Ash493]

I almost finished the Johto part and I must say this hack is equal to Shiny Gold maybe even better!
But there's lots of glitchs... I don't know if someone already pointed it but from what I remember
In Cherygrove is maybe hidden item but when ya click on it game will stop
In Rocket Hideout there's one scientist who has I guess bad offset 'cause when ya speak to him game will go purple and there's no way out
And the last I remember is that in Team Static's hideout are 2 grunts which attack ya but screen goes black and battle don't start
Is that only my problems or not?

[joamaravar]

I was in Team rocket's base in Beta2.1, and when I spoke to a scientist near teh red head on teh thrid basments i belienve, the game crashed. Also does the beta end after the radio station?

[uchiha sasuke]

no, it goes up to the first bagde of the orange islands.
The bug you posted is probably the most popular one. So, just in case you have anymore questions, download dirk123's walktrhough. It includes all you need to know about liquid crystal.

[dragonoid]

This hack looks really great. The graphics is cool ( i really am not good in spellings).Anyway the thing i dont like is the trainer card gold looks relly weird i suggest u change it. anyway this is my favorite hack ever. oh and i also love the music of newbark town and the other towns a really cool hack. keep up yhe good work guys.DO NOT GIVE UP

[kebengau]

DOES TOGEPI EVOLVE??
I have lvl. 55..haha
sucks..


still waiting for the next update..^__^
woo..
final release??YEAH!

[monkeyboi]

togapi evolves from happyness i just think it hates you.

mine always evolve before 40 though.

[Ryanniny]

i love this hack, can't wait to get to kanto & the orange islands :D

[Dogg20k]

I have a problem when ever i try to check the Summary for my Pokemon the game black screens and crashes can anyone help

[swantonbomb15]

I downloade this hack and i gotta say, it's great.

Just a few questions.

1.Does anybody have a list of what okemon appear where?
2. How do you evolve the pokemon that evolve by trading?

[brawlerdude93]

In the Boulder puzzle in Icy Cave, I got 3 of th 4 boulders, but every tiem I try to get the last one, it resets as I walk around. This is the firstboudler that you are supposed to do, but I did the others first because the first boulder kept reseting, meaning I'm stuck in the same place and can't go any further.

My firend says he can't continue, aftert he beasts the elite four.

[brawlerdude93]

My firend says he can't continue, aftert he beasts the elite four.

Yes, I pwned the Pokemon League, but there is no continue option, and it makes me start at the beginning again.

[Brandon8225]

Hey linkandzelda,

I just started playing the latest version of Pokemon Liquid Crystal and I noticed that in the begining, like in regular crystal, the main rival steals a pokemon from Elm's Lab. But theres still two pokeballs on the table after he steals one. There should only be one left because the main character gets one and the rival steals one out of three. I hope this helps you a little.

this is getting ridiculous.

[Pokepal17]

LaZ make a bug list for the first post please because some people aren't going to look in Dirk123's guide. It'll save you a load of spam :P

[Manipulation]

Also, he could also make a help thread in the Scrapbox. That would prevent loads of spam xD. I suggested this before the release of Beta 2 as well.

No, that is not what I meant xD

[swantonbomb15]

I heard theirs a bug were it freezes after you beat the elite 4. Im unable to save in-game. I use the VBA feature that lets you save in the game.

So will i be able to continue even if the in-game save wont work?

[kebengau]

is there a ho-oh on the game??where could i find it..
i always caught legendaries with only 1 great ball.. wahhh..

[Dudemanword]

Hey great rom hack!!! Umm has anyone else noticed this? A bad egg in the bottom right hand corner in the first box.

[draconight656]

Really nice hack im just wondering how do i get a politoad cuase they are awsome but yeha im starting my own Playthrough of this game and if anyone wants to watch it im DrakkonGeist1 on youtube

[thedgr05]

well, there is/ may be a way to add day/ night, thanks to hackmew, hacklars day/ night looks a little unprofessional (no offense), the palette for his system reloads a lot, which means we'd have even more bug reports. hackmews is progressing well though.

OK what I care now is the safari zone. I saw a video of an unused safari in GSC wich you only can enter via gameshark. I think it would be nice to have it mainly because its an unused idea of nintendo and somethimes remakes do that

the link to the video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqVtRrMnTy0&feature=PlayList&p=AFC8BD0F3A8AAA31&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=20

the only bad thing is that there´s only 1 part of it...

[Ash493]

Hey great rom hack!!! Umm has anyone else noticed this? A bad egg in the bottom right hand corner in the first box. yep I had it as well but I'm n00b... I released it :/

[Synergy]

I'd just like to mention to dirk123: you had a bug where you don't recieve the Blackglasses, but I got them. Also, I got Lugia after the 8th badge in Johto without the Silver Wing. Just figured I'd point a couple things out. Props on the walkthrough and fantastic hack!

[miksy91]

I noticed two bugs in the game:
I just started this hack and in the routes I've been (29 and 30) weather changes all the time and usually it's sandstorm or it's raining.

Also it's possible to jump on the lady in Route 29 who tells you to jump off ledges to get to new bark without walking in grass.

I don't know if anyone else have reported these though.

EDIT:
Okay so it's not bug that weather varies but I think it's annoying to have sandstorm in normal map.

[swantonbomb15]

I heard theirs a bug were it freezes after you beat the elite 4. Im unable to save in-game. I use the VBA feature that lets you save in the game.

So will i be able to continue even if the in-game save wont work?
Can somebody please answer this?

[uchiha sasuke]

The way you save is not the best one. Here are instructions on how to save as normal gameboy advance!
Don't load a ROM, just load VBA without any ROM being used. Go to Options - Emulator - Save Type. Set it to Flash 128K. Then delete all saves you have of the games (all .sav files) of all ROM;s, and all Save States. Then load your ROM and it should save.
But before you delete your files, make sure you save! If it does not work, you have to start again.

[dirk123]

So will i have to start my game all over?

Yes. Also, if that doesn't work, then you must use google to find the Fire Red Save Patch (If you get the microboard whatever sentence at the start of the game).

[mariieek12]

i have this with every remake... i CANT PLAY IT! i really wanna play it but i cant.. can you tell me?

[swantonbomb15]

So basically if i dont do this, i cant play into Kanto?

btw i'm using Beta 2.1

[monkeyboi]

@mariieek12

if you don't want people yelling at you, read the post called how to play a hack (or something like that)

[Dudemanword]

Figured out why the starters that you receive(not in the beginning of the game) can't evolve!!! It's hard to explain but there are two sets of starters and the second set has no evolutions. I changed it so they do evolve (on my version) and now it works. For those who don't know a sunstone evolves poliwhirl to politoed and to evolve haunter to gengar, make it hold blackglasses.

no, it's because they don't register in the pokédex. stop. posting. about. already. found. glitches.

[Dudemanword]

no, it's because they don't register in the pokédex. stop. posting. about. already. found. glitches.
Really? They evolve for me just fine

[øbliteration]

well, that's cause you changed it.

[Switchblade]

Really? They evolve for me just fine

Let me explain;

When you catch a pokemon, it registers in your pokedex. Pokemon without a pokedex entry are not registered as being owned and thus, do not evolve when they level up.

You changed the pokemon to a captured one, registering it in the pokedex completely, and thus allowing it to evolve.

[uchiha sasuke]

how can we change any pokemon to a captured one?

[seanmorely]

I downloaded this hack a few days ago and already got through the first run of the E4! I'm really enjoying this hack, this is a great piece of work!

Small bugs that I'm having:

- When I try to use Fly (everywhere), I get a black screen and the music just continues. Since I haven't seen this with anyone else, patching error or something like that? The Map Card thingy does exactly the same, so they're probably related? Kinda sucks having to go everywhere on foot.. :)

- Bill's PC also gives me a HUGE amount of weird letters but that's probably a universal problem.

- I went back to Mr. Pokemons house at some time during the game and the Oak event repeated itself. So I got another Mystery Egg which is just sitting there in my bag now, having absolutely no use at all.. :)

MAJOR EDIT: it's pretty much game over now. The game freezes every time I try to go from Route 7 into Celadon. Halp please?

MAJOR EDIT 2: It's possible that I screwed up patching the first time around, since I did it again with a new rom and loaded my old files, everything running smooth again.

[Ash493]

To Edit1 : Ya should patch rom again. I didn't have that bug.
By the way is it glitch that I'm in Tin Tower and going to catch Ho-oh? :D

[Draga]

Hey guys, nice hack you've made. Just a question though. How do the Pokemon that usually evolve by trading evolve in this hack? Sorry if it's been answered before but 104 pages are a little scary to read through ^_^;

[EJames2100]

Hey guys, nice hack you've made. Just a question though. How do the Pokemon that usually evolve by trading evolve in this hack? Sorry if it's been answered before but 104 pages are a little scary to read through ^_^;

They evolve through levelling up ;)

[Draga]

Sweet. Thanks for the help. Now my Porygon and Poliwhirl shall kick much ass.

[seanmorely]

They evolve through levelling up ;)
All of them? I have a lv60 Seadra now, I'm not really expecting it to evolve any more by level up and none of the stones are working. Lv. up with Dragon Scale nothing as well.

Anyone have an idea (in spoiler tags)? :P

[>Entei<]

Well, even though I have yet to finish beta 2.1, I have found a few glitches all centered around two Pokemon:

The Hitmonlee owned by one of the Blackbelts in Cianwood's gym.

Sparkles the Ditto.

The Hitmonlee knew Encore, Role Play, and Doubleslap.

Sparkles can learn any TM move(Which is kind of awesome).

Other than those glitches, I love the hack.

[øbliteration]

actually, i think the ditto may have been intended....?

[Synergy]

I love how the Ditto can learn any move. HM Slave. =P

[Ash493]

Sparkles can learn any TM move(Which is kind of awesome).
Man I should've known earlier... :/
It'd save me lots of troubles...
By the way 'bout evolutions, aren't they same as in Shiny Gold?
Anyways if ya really need to know you could check rom with YAPE

[AfroConnor]

Those MR.G AND MR.H AND MR.R are weird, there so cool!

I hope that you get to like battle them and they are really strong with like Milotic, Salamence, Gyarados etc.

[thedgr05]

To Edit1 : Ya should patch rom again. I didn't have that bug.
By the way is it glitch that I'm in Tin Tower and going to catch Ho-oh? :D

Whaaaaaat???????? do you mean that YOU ARE GOING TO BATTLE HO-OH?!
sorry but I heard that there is no ho-oh yet. Oh well... I can´t even find those dogs so I don´t know if there is ho-oh >_<

ps: where did you find them pls tell me! it may lead me to a clue of where to look for them

[Ash493]

I guess Ho-Oh isn't really there 'cause on third floor is way blocked by something. When I wanted to check it with A-Map I didn't find the map :D :D I'll try use WTW cheat if Ho-Oh's workin'
And 'bout dogs... I wasn't really searchin' for 'em :D :D I happened to find them by pure luck xD xD I found Entei on the grassy patch next to Pokemon Center in Mt. Silver and Raikou... well I don't remember correctly but maybe somewhere close to Cherrygrove

[Mikaru]

great game luved playing it
i got to the end but i didnt go to orange islands gonna wait till u finish it 1st =P
anyways good luck hacking =]

Yeah, I had exactly the same thing. For those who can't really remember how to get Ho-Oh in Crystal:

Catch all 3 dogs, have them in your party and talk to Eusine in Celadon. He'll tell you about there being rumours about the rainbow colored pokemon returning to the Tin Tower. Go there, one of the elders gives you the Rainbow Wing and the staircase will appear. You'll find a Master ball for your efforts there, since Ho-Oh isn't available yet..


But yeah, it's all for nothing, since 3F is blocked by something invisible. End of the beta! :P

My Seadra is still a Seadra btw, I want a Kingdra lol! In SG, it was at lvl50 I believe, in LC he's already at lvl 65.

[Ash493]

Accordin' to YAPE Seadra evolves just by usin' Dragon Scale but in fact ya need to use Sun Stone ;)

[swantonbomb15]

btw, do pokemon who evolve by happiness(pichu) still evolve regularly in this game?

[seanmorely]

Yes they do! Atleast that's what happened with my Pichu.

Sun Stone has no effect on Seadra btw ;)

[linkandzelda]

hello people again. sorry for not posting for a long time. been busy and stuff. well im working on LC too. just to claer a few things up.

the reason the promotional starters dont evolve is becuase they dont have a pokedex entry and i didnt set them to evolve... not just becuase they dont register in the dex. they now evolve fine but still wont have a pokedex entry as of now.

thanks you people for the bugs and stuff. i'm adding a list to the first post of the bugs. please look there before posting a new bug report please from now on.

dirk123's walkthrough will also be placed in the first post so people can check through that if they have any issues.

there is a bug with most of the item giving scripts that dosnt check if the bag is full. thats why dirk123 didnt recive the blackglasses and others did. just to clear that up too.

ho-oh is available but the maps vanished from A-Map so i cant fix the 3F error without remapping the whole area...

sparkles isnt the only ditto who can learn every tm/hm. all dittos can do that. im thinking about making only sparkles ble to do that so it makes him more exclusive.

for people worrying about the bug contest and the safari zone they will be in the next beta. the bug catching contest event in 2.1 is a placeholder instead of making them never run a contest. ;etspeople know that there inst a contest in the beta :P. the safari zone will NOT be in fuschia city as it wasnt in the orgianl but it will be a new safari zone but in the orange islands somewhere.

im planning for the weather system to be removed from the next beta completly meaning absolutly NO weatehr changes at all.

im planning for a working day/night to be in the next release and possibly a working radio and phone too. dont get your helps up though as this is just the PLAN!!!

ive almost finished the events on the first island and will be moving on to the rest.

i think thats it for now. i'll try to reply to most of the posts from now on.

I was just playing LC, and im at the lake of rage, and went to battle Red Gyrados. I accidentaly killed him, so i turned off the Emulator and turned it back on (i saved right in front of him). Now, whenever i go to batte him, the screen goes black but the music keeps playing.

Will it keep doing this?

[uchiha sasuke]

fly somewhere, and then return to the red guarados. You will be able to challenge him again, once you do this.
But, each time you fail to capture him, you have to follow this process.
It's a bug, and I don't know what causes it.
I hope Link can solve it in the future.

[Silent Storm]

It seems Project Platinum is going open source with their sprites/maps/title screens etc

IMO I think it would be a good idea to at least use some of their maps/images/sprites as they are stunning, maybe something to consider, though some images don't work, I have most of if not all of their stuff saved on my computer.

[monkeyboi]

hey link did you get the pm talking about my trainer that i sent like 2 months ago?
i was supposed to be a cool trainer with fire pokemon but i'm a birdkeeper with a typhlosion and 2 bird pokemon instead.

[swantonbomb15]

OK, this time i was at the end of Victory Road, battling my Rival. And when he sent his Kadabra out, the game froze >:(

Anybody know how to get past this one?

[Ash493]

Try patch new FR rom it could solve the problem

[yuyusleep]

I'm a Chinese,and the following language maybe poor :(

I've been playing beta2.1 ,and BUG occurred that the game is always
out of order when I challenge the ice GYM the 2rd time.
(Just when No.221 Piloswine appears )

I wonder how to solve or avoid it..
Thanks!

[swantonbomb15]

Try patch new FR rom it could solve the problem
So i have to start the game over?

[Ash493]

No ya don't have to. Patch new rom and rename it in the same way as ya have the rom you're playin' now. So for example if ya have rom with name "Pokemon Liquid Crystal beta 2.1.gba" you'll have saves with the same name but another extension like .sav, .sgm etc... so if ya rename the new rom as the old one the saves will work even for the new.
Example :
Original rom name : Liquid Crystal.gba your downloaded file will be Pokémon Fire Red.gba so rename it (after patch of course) to Liquid Crystal.gba move it to the folder where your saves are and with this process ya can use those saves.
I really hope I explained it intelligible to ya and it'll help ya

[linkandzelda]

hello people. just to show how dedicated i am im sitting on a train right now mapping... it makes me LOL when i think about it but at least ive already got 2 new maps done.

Off topic

Can you tell me (in a spoiler) how to make warps in advance map?

[clonex25]

So far, so good for Beta 2.1, LaZ! I like the Developer battles and other improvements! Hope you can release Beta 3 before the official games (in Japanese) are released [X)]

(The New Bark Town theme in HG/SS ... so sad and slow...)

[joamaravar]

I found a way to play past teh elite four if you used save states. You have to go to birth island wiht the gameshark code, talk to the man to go back. And you'll be in vermillion. NOTE: DO NOT USE TEH S.S. ANNE TO GO TO OLIVINE. YOU WILL BE STUCK IN A SMALL HOLE.

[morris1]

hey im having trouble getting the beta 2.1. can you help me please? i have windows vista. im not sure which one to download and so i just get both and they dont work so i get the patch and i dont know how to patch it. it looks like a very well thought out and fun game and i really want to get it. so can someone please PLEASE help me?!?

[HackChu]

uh,I also sent a request a couple months ago regarding my trainer named Jimmy and he was a pkmn trainer...Have you approved it LaZ?

[GymLeaderLance99]

Hey there, linkandzelda, I just started playing the latest beta, and I have to say I'm really impressed with how much this resembles Crystal. I especially like the music remixes that were added, which is something zel's Shiny Gold doesn't have much of at the moment (I'm sure it will eventually XD). Keep up the great work!

[Ash493]

and i dont know how to patch it. it looks like a very well thought out and fun game and i really want to get it. so can someone please PLEASE help me?!?
Ya have to download IPS Win (I'll be usin' ips patch oki? :)) and Fire Red Rom.
Open IPS Win and in first line open the Fire Red and to other line open the IPS patch and then click on patch and ya can play :)

[Zeikku™]

I agree, so far the HGSS Music kinda sucks, new bark sounds boring, i may try and add windy weather like in HGSS, getting rid of the sandstorm if i do.

[NoMasterBallsNeeded4Legends]

what do you do in alzea town, after i try to leave after doing everything there, i just end up back where i left

[morris1]

hey does anyone know how trade evolutions work in this game or could you please answer Link?

[Ash493]

some pokemons will evolve by leveling up, some by using stone

[Magius]

was just testing this out last night, and I was blown away. It is very nicely done, but one minor problem is not too important but I would like to see added. When your trying to get the farfethch'd back to the boy. When your chasing it it does not make a cry, it should be something very simple to add.

[octillery333]

Hi I'm having trouble in Beta 2.1. I'm trying to get to the orange Islands and the guard won't let me sail from Olivine City. And when I sail from Vermillion it only takes me to Olivine after Professor Oak talks to me after I beat the elite 4 the second time.

I had the same problem but after 2 or 3 rides from Vermilion harbor I was able to go to Orange Isle

I heard a rumor that the remakes could be released internationally on the same date due to the merging of P.USA and P.UK.

how can i find this bell for sicune in the ruins of alpha

thanks

ps: my english is not so good

[morris1]

i know i mean like how to get haunter to geangar since you cant trade

[Occam]

Thanks for the hack! I went to the Power Plant and I think the Manager told me to go to Cinnabon to find the missing part. I went to Cinnamon Bar and fought the enemies but no one gave me any part. Axel is still at the Plant, the Magnet Train isn't running, and Misty isn't at the Gym. What gives?

i know i mean like how to get haunter to geangar since you cant trade

Graveler evolves to Golem at level 45 and Kadabra to Alakazam at level 60. I assume Haunter and Machoke evolve at 50 and 55, though I don't know which is which.

You're meant to talk to the Grunt in the Cerulean Gym after talking to the guy in the Power Plant.

Anyways, good luck on beta 3 (add MD OWs NAO! XD) and please try and use up less space or I'll have to teach you how to map edit with hex XD

[Occam]

Crap. Figures. It's been almost 10 years, of course I'd forget. :/ He doesn't even show up anymore. That's what I get for (ab)using the walking through walls code. Thanks though! Time to re-do the last day or so...

[shadoweevee]

Don't know for sure if you guys know this one but here it goes.
glitch alert!
on route 46 you can walk through the two trees next to the building

[GymLeaderLance99]

I, uh...don't know if this one's been mentioned, but when you beat the Elder in Sprout Tower, he repeats what he says when you first talk to him ("So good of you to come here, Sprout Tower is a place of training, etc."). I found it weird. o_O

[PokeFreakBror]

Hey laz i found more glitches now from B2. In dragons den you can walk on a lot of water tiles. And when i try to battle my rival for the second time, he doesn't show up. And sometimes when i enter a ruins of alph puzzle there's sometime a glitchy version (it's also hard to avoid glitches with such a great script) and how come a lot of PKMN ow sprites are just other Pkmn's? It can be done better, i know it! And the seventh leader repeats one of his lines how come? And why can't i use that surfing transport (not a glitch). And one of the grunts on the way to team statics hideout when i enter the battle the screen goes black, so i needed to hack in order to get past him :(. Even though a lot of glitches have been fixed there's still more to come. Can't wait till B3^^.

[daxeondence23]

how to get to orange island????

[Sarcastic Prince]

A New Glitch: When I went to the Bottom
Floor of Silph Company, I can't go up the stairs and the map is totally
glitched.

(That's awful. I spent my hours on LC just to play a few slight changes...)

[GymLeaderLance99]

Here's another mistake I found: the Lass (or at least she should be) in the attached screenshot from Goldenrod's Gym has an Aroma Lady in-battle sprite.
Also, if I didn't hate Whitney and her Miltank before, I definitely do now. >_>

EDIT: Why just give Whitney her Miltank? I was looking forward to the EXP points from beating it and her Clefairy. D:

[Konekodemon]

I have a few questions here:

1: Since this is based on Crystal do I get the Pichu egg from the Daycare people?
2: Are you adding in the Celebi event that was in the japanese version of Crystal?

Also the TM Case is all glitched up.

[dirk123]

I have a few questions here:

1: Since this is based on Crystal do I get the Pichu egg from the Daycare people?
2: Are you adding in the Celebi event that was in the japanese version of Crystal?

Also the TM Case is all glitched up.

1. In the roginal Crystal, the Daycare people egg was random. I could be any of the baby pokemon.
2. The start of it is already in this beta (GS ball like in the anime from Prof Ivy), but it is not finished yet. It will be in Beta 3 (the supposedly final beta)

Some people have the TM case glitch, while others like me don't have that problem. So probably a bad rom/wrongly patched issue.

[Synergy]

Don't know if these bugs have been mentioned yet, but...

- You can walk through the tombstones at the back of the Lavender Town's spiritual tower thing for ghost Pokemon(sorry, forgot the name) and walk around a few of the black tiles.
- You can battle the lvl. 50 Gengar in that place infinate times, but checking out the tombstone again.
- Your rival will challenge you infinate times everytime you want to re-challenge the Elite 4.

[Ryudo]

I gotta say I was verry impressed with the current beta. While some things made me **** a brow in confusion (Electabuzz can't be taught the Ice Punch TM like GSC?), I ENJOYED the remixes of the GSC soundtracks. The Johto Gym Leader Theme, the Silver Battle Theme, The Kanto Gym Leader Theme? Mmm! Splendid works that I caught myself humming more than once. I also liked some of the team options given, though I did want to train an Umbreon but couldn't given current circumstances.

I really can't think of much to critique on that hasn't already been said. What's been put out so far surpassed my expectations and then some. I was completely taken by surprise at the inclusion of the Orange Islands and the Johto Gym Leaders having upgraded teams upon beating Sissy. THAT is something I fear even Heart Gold and Soul Silver may forgo, and for that Liquid Crystal definately gets bonus points, especially for the Double Battles with Whitney and Jazmine.

Aside from that all I can say is this is a well made hack and I can't wait to try the later versions. I'll also PM a Trainer Request too pretty soon.

[Ryuzaki12]

Hi LaZ, just wanted to tell you about a glitch a found in olivine city in LC Beta 2. When i tried to fly from within olivine city, they showed me a kanto map instead of a johto map. Its not much of a problem for me because i actually like it but you know i just wanted to inform you i attached some pictures if you want to see them by the way, YOUR HACK ROCKS!!!!! :D

[dirk123]

That glitch was already reported, but thanks anyways.

Also, if I receive 20+ (not by the same people) requests via private message before 22:00 GMT+1
Then I will make a seperate "Pokemon Locations FAQ" for the current beta.

[brutal satyr]

can anyone tell me where i can find the firestone salesman in this game . i really want a flareon

[GymLeaderLance99]

Surf in that pond to the right of Sprout Tower in Violet, and he'll be on the land there.

[Izlix]

found a little glitch.
i was just riding around with my bike trying to hatch my egg near New Bark, so i could show the professor and not have to wait 'till i got the fly HM, AND i found that the player is able to ride the bike in the Sprout Tower
:)
btw i love this hack.. thanks.

[Kitaro Rogore]

Where can I find Mareep or Larvitar?

[Meganium Ex]

I've been playing this hack for awhile now, and I have really enjoyed it so far. There are a few glitches and grammatical errors here and there, but this is still easily one of the greatest hacks I've played, and it's surely nice to see at least one hacker that has enough dedication to recreate a complete Kanto. I eagerly await the third beta. :D

By the way, I think you should scrap the whole random weather thing, to be honest. Having it consistently change from rain to sandstorm to normal etc. is kind of annoying. I think an option should be available in the beginning of the hack to choose to have the weather or not, and if that's not possible, an extra version without it. Just my opinion.

[Balkia]

nice work man one question are u gonna use Emerald for your hacks or your just gonna use Fire Red cuz ya know thats kinda boring

[Izlix]

biking is also available in the diner where the man who supplies strength is, and it is available in the lighthouse

[Zeikku™]

I'm sorry for my absence, i've been busy, i'm gonna work on new stuf for LC soon. I'm bored right now.. i just made my richie avatar on paint out of boredom, I'm gonna work on the pokedexs appearance soon. and add wind as a weather effect

[sonicxexe]

Hey i`ve been playing this hack for a week and i got to say it`s awesome in the next spoiler tag I posted a question read below:
At what lv does latios learn luster purge because he didn`t have as an attack and when I captured latias in kanto she had mist ball so shouldn`t latios have luster purge

Latias doesn't learn luster purge, it learns mist ball. Latios is the one that learns Luster Purge.

[Dragoon]

Not bad at all LinkandZelda... proud of what you are doing. I'm even making a walkthrough of this game on my YouTube account and I'm enjoying it a lot. A glitch that happened is that after I went surfing... I got a gender change. You better fix that if you have time, it's disturbing.

Level 35 is when it learns Luster Purge

Tried to make it more like FR/LG title screens. Credits go to Susan_Rocket and linkandzelda. Use it whether you want to or not, or touch it up with the coloring.

[Tri Brow]

How come the weather changes randomly on some of the routes? (If this was intentional, I can see why rain comes along once in a while, but sometimes sandstorms come out or snow starts falling in a place with no such weather, unless this is merely just a bug)

That's actually pretty good. Though I can't help but feel as though Suicune is a bit naked. XD

Another bug to report: is it natural for a Hitmonlee to learn Psychic? That one Blackbelt who uses it in the Cianwood Gym uses one that does. :S

I resumed working on the pokemon location FAQ.
School starts again tomorrow, so it will probably be done and posted on friday/saturday. (LaZ made too many similar maps and maps with wrong names o.o)

[sonicxexe]

Level 35 is when it learns Luster Purge
That`s the thing I caught him at lv 50 but he had wierd moves since when does latios learn lock on and zap cannon

[onyx79]

This game is so awesome! I like the weather change it makes the game more realistic,the starter bug is kinda annoying but no matter....
beta 3 will be so awesome!I hope there will be even D\P pokemons!
patching beta 3 on beta 2.1 would be possible right?,I don't want to start the game again....

[Ash493]

This has been propably asked few times but anyway, i cant use my pokegear so is it a bug or should it be that way?

Sry for bothering u :)

Actually, since the PokeGear here is FR's VS Seeker, you can use it like you would in the regular game for rematches. I don't think it starts working until after you have 6 badges, though.

I have a question: is there a place to get Ice Beam in the latest beta? Kinda wanted to teach it to my Totodile to take Clair on. ^^"

[captainshaw]

is this hack an exact copy of crystal? does it have some added pokemon? cause it would be nice to have a varied team

[Pokémon Trainer Kenta]

is this hack an exact copy of crystal? does it have some added pokemon? cause it would be nice to have a varied team

It has multiple Pokémon from Hoenn and events that were added in to it such as the Static event. They're more rare than others, but still rather common. My Mightyena is one of my strongest, and I caught him first.

[onyx79]

my totodile has evolved to croconow I thoght that there's a starter bug....

[Solarbeam'dVenusaur]

how do i fix "please exchange backup memory?"

i've changed save oon the vba to flash 128k, and other rom hacks save fine.

[iTzKaizer]

my totodile has evolved to croconow I thoght that there's a starter bug....

The bug is with the other starters you get from other people in the story (Cyndaquil, Totodile, Chikorita, Charmander, Aquirtler, Bulbasaur). The one Prof. Elm gives to you can evolve.

[dirk123]

how do i fix "please exchange backup memory?"

i've changed save oon the vba to flash 128k, and other rom hacks save fine.

After selecting the flash 128k, delete your .sav/.sa1 file.
Restart the rom and load the "save state".
Now you can normally save again.

Also, if you have the "microboard" message when you start a new game, then it means that your rom needs the "Fire Red Save Patch".
1. Patch the save patch on a clean rom
2. Patch the 2.1 beta on the patched rom
3. Enjoy playing your game with the ingame save.

Is jirachi suposed to have iron defense as it`s only move he also dosen`t any relearnable moves

Search the topic it's already been answered if I'm not wrong
from what I remember LaZ just edited 'em to have their best moves and he didn't register them to dex :)
Edit : lol someone already answered xD

[sonicxexe]

I just noticed something the moves that my latios has been learning are similar to that of the regis and also acording to a strategy guide i have jirachi isin`t suposed to learn iron defense though I wouldn`t hold on to this since the SG is the platinum one.

[Baby Cynda]

I need help. My rom says 'The 1m sub-circuit board is not installed' so when I finish the Elite 4 I can't continue as it just starts the game form the beginning. What do I do?

Read two posts up. You need to google the "Fire Red Save Patch".
Or download V1.1 of the rom (1m thingy means you are playing the V1.0 rom)

[thedgr05]

yeah! b3 will be awesome!! also dont repatch a patched rom because it will be messed up. i dont know how the starter bug could be annoying

NO FAKEMONS PLEASE!!!! THAT INCLUDES SINNOH POKEMON IN GBA!!!!!!!!!!!!

dont know why you quoted me, but i agree that the 4th gen pokemon spites looks weird specially pidgey

[onyx79]

the evvee evulotion is not a bug I guess that they forgot to change it...
anyway if you want umbreon or espeon you can edit them with evulotion editor pro -_-
OMG! what have you done to the saffari zone and the bug catching contest?,why the pokemon level of the gym leaders in kanto are so low like the original game -______-

[Ash493]

Imo he wanted place to put Orange Isle...
And OI are also maybe the reason why he left Kanto leaders pokemon's level so low

[Baby Cynda]

is it possible to get a pollitoad in this game and if so how
Yes I got one I think you need to use a sun stone on it.

Also I've patched the save patch but when I try to save it says 'Please exchange the backup memory' but thats on the old rom and if I use a new rom it just starts the game from the beginning and I don't want to do the whole game again :(

[linkandzelda]

hello people. sorry im not around atm. i know i still need to put alot of things on the first page and start a help thread too. i'll be able to to that some time this week :D. i have a lack of interent atm so i cant be here all the time to run the thread (sorry that other people are running it xD) at least im still working on LC thouigh ;p.

I have a few anaouncements...

i cant decide wehther to release the beta 3 before the HGSS are released or afterwards. maybe people can decide on that one... although probably wont stick to it xd.

also. ive got word from people that the game is too easy. i aggree that it is a bit easy but the problem that some of you may have guessed is that the oragne islands need to fit in. if the levels arer already 80 by the time you get to the first island its kind of pointless as 20 levels isnt enough for the story i have planned. hope thats understandable.

ill post again soon
link

[Ash493]

i cant decide wehther to release the beta 3 before the HGSS are released or afterwards. maybe people can decide on that one...
On 100% before, because when SS/HG will be released some people will play it so they won't have time on your hack

also. ive got word from people that the game is too easy. i aggree that it is a bit easy but the problem that some of you may have guessed is that the oragne islands
I've guessed right it :D I'm god :D :D

[uchiha sasuke]

Link, you must make sure that the beta is not published when it's requested, but when it is fully done.
I think, you've seen the stress on beta2, when the major evolution bug appeared.

Well, it's an advantage to make it before HG/SS because of the reason given above. But, you should remember one more thing. You are not competing with them. It is not a matter of competition. Each game is unique. (At least, I see it so)

Finally, for the levelling up, once you get lati@s, things get very easy. You might want to level-up the whole KANTO region a bit, and even add some more quests which will make the player/character eligible to train the pokemon without losing its interest.

I think Red is okay. You might only need to level up the second league challenge and all the KANTO leaders, as well as all the rematches with the gym leaders!

Even if levels rise so much, it's not a problem, because I don't think that they can surpass level 80. The orange islands should be a big challenge (like the battle frontier in Emerald)

Anothing thing that you may need to give more attention is the minor bugs that were reported in beta2. If they disappear, I am sure the game will become somewhat proffesional and original!

Good luck Link.
I hope you all the best.
I am giving feedback to you, not to let you down, but to make you stonger and comment your great work.

[Silent Storm]

Now would be a good time to implement proper gym line ups and fix all of the issues in the originls, Johto gym leaders should primarily have Johto boss Pokemon and you should be able to obtain a majority of Johto pokemon before Kanto, issues like these were present in the originals.

where are the 3 switches located in silph co in saffron city that axel needs you to find to open the gate?

Check the walkthrough... :)

[hawawa675]

hey linkandzelda i have a few questions

1. Are there going to be more one-offs in the next beta. like the rest of the ledgendaries.

2. Will the next beta allow the recieved starters to evolve.

[Master_Z]

I can't find Red. I made it to the end of Mt Silver only to find some guy named Mister R. I don't know where I can find the walkthrough. Can anyone help?

[Ash493]

Mr.R.? Is that trio of gentlemans? If yes then just continue to nearby entrance and Red will be there

[Master_Z]

I'll try that. Thanks a lot.

Sorry for the double post...but all of the entrances in the cave led to more of those trio men. Where is it exactly?

[dirk123]

It is in my signature. Follow the link and open the file.

[Kitaro Rogore]

LaZ, I think LC is too easy. I think there is something this hack needs...

-level up the trainers and wild pokemon
-Change up the Leader's roster. It's weird that Pidgey evolves to Pigeotto at L18 when Falker has a L9 Pidgeotto. Try something like two Spearow and a Taillow.
-The weather needs some work. It doens't make sense that there is a sandstorm in New Bark. If you're gonna keep the weather, may I suggest you axe the sandstorm? And you might wanna make the weather less frequet.
-Why not add 100TMs? 50 from G/S/C and the other 50 from R/S/E?

That's all the suggestions I have. Hope you take them into consideration.

P.S: I apologize if I sound like an elitist jerk. I tent to sound like but I mean to be nice.

P.S.S: Will you put in the rest of the G/S/C remixes. I noticed the Team Rocket music is missing.

[øbliteration]

Kitaro he just addressed this. please read the thread

May i ask a question??? After i defeated team rocket in radio tower i went to ecruteck city and the sage said i needed the clear bell but i cant find it in ruins of alph???

Was it that hard to see the link to the WALKTHROUGH, a few posts above yours?

[Andydark]

...So I managed to successfully patch this a while ago, but all recent attempts yield a rom that doesn't even open...

I've tried fresh downloads.

EDIT: I managed to find my old copy, but regardless...why is my patching failing?

I've tried both UPS and IPS.

UPS gives me a checksum error.

Also, I'm unable to tell if the version I found was my old 2.0 file... When would I be able to notice that 2.0 is the bad one?

[thungyx]

Ya have to reach the south exits and then ya can continue to place which will teleport ya to past and there will be Ho-Oh and Clear Bell

[Dr.Garchomp]

Forgive me if I may have passed over this somewhere, but I came across 2 very important glitches inside tin tower while going for Ho-oh in the upper levels:

1) On the 5th floor, there is a small space that looks passable but is not and blocks the only path to the next floor. This may be a simple movement permissions error, but here is the space: http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/7131/liquidcrystal.png

2) While I was trying to leave the tower, the stairs to the upper levels dissappeared when i got to the bottom while Ho-oh was uncaptured, yet the older person still said "Go on."

I just thought that I should have brought something up this impotant.

[D4Ni3L]

keep up the good work bro, i love this game, its the best hack i have ever played thank you so much, i can't wait for the update. :)

[Ash493]

Forgive me if I may have passed over this somewhere, but I came across 2 very important glitches inside tin tower while going for Ho-oh in the upper levels:
Ho-Oh's event isn't ready and that's why Tin Tower is so buggy :D

[Xintetsu]

im sure some one else has bugged you about this..but i have one small problem with the weather effects they seem a tad bit to unrealistic i mean switching right from rain to sandstorm...or from snow to a sandstorm and the random ash falling it just kinda doesn't make sense plus the switch from sandstorm to rain glitches the rain to be inverted.

and then i agree with the trainer's pokemon being a little bit of a higher level all though the low levels are pretty close to what it was originally like in the old crystal games.

[deadlyangel91792]

i think the weather effects are awesome but they change to frequently and if you guys gave the normal effect a bit more time than the others it would be awesome

[Ash493]

The weather changes are great they'll always ruin your strategy xD

[xLEGENDxTROOPER]

hey can i get a gba rom for the 2.1 beta
plz

[Ash493]

hey can i get a gba rom for the 2.1 beta
plz
Gba roms aren't allowed to be distributed here... Ya have to download IPS and then patch normal rom in this case Fire Red

[Andydark]

Hmm...

When you first start, after the scene where Elm and the Cop talk to you about RIVAL. Walk down to trigger the assistant so he gives you the Potion. Then walk up, and back down to trigger the assistant to give you the pokeballs.

Then, walk around the assistant, you'll find a tile you can't walk through... talk to it.

The dialogue with the cop and Elm will replay itself. It's not a big problem, just more of a "WHERE IS THIS VOICE COMING FROM!?"

[tifaluv]

How the hell do you get in Tin Tower? I caught all three dogs and still the ladder won't show up

[hawawa675]

to my knowledge tin tower hasn't been released yet as ho-oh hasnt been released yet so you'll have to wait until beta 3 i think

[Ash493]

yeah ya cannot capture Ho-Oh but ya might go to Tin Tower xD

You must private message LaZ for the trainer request.

Pokemon Location Faq update:
I have listed every route/city/cave pokemon encounters. I only need to compile it into a better looking file before I post it here. You can expect it to be up in 4-6 hours from now.

[linkandzelda]

hello people.
good job on the locations FAQ Dirk123, appreiated :P
i'll be sure to add this info to the first post ASAP.

ive decided how im gonna do the pokemon levels... i'll raise the levels by 4 from what they are now but i'll lower the experiecne you recive from them so it takes longer to train pokemon. this will give enough time and enjoyment while playing the orange islands instead of sweeping level 100 pokemon with 6 level 100 pokemon... the orange islands level will stay more or less the same. and so will the begining levels. i'll make sure that the level gradient is correct if you know what i mean lol becuase i dont :O

also... in the orginal crystal i cant rememebr if it was possible to do the red garados event before you do the cianwood event :S.

about the weather... as soon as we have the day/night it will be removed completly. as it stands that plan is still gonna happen so im not gonna touch the weatehr script. but if by the release date we still dont have day/night then i will revoluntionise the weather script to become more realistic.

i'll be switching to OS X Leopard soon so hacking might be cut down or even stopped. my plan is to run the tools on the mac lol. i'm sure there is a way...

well thats enough updates for now :P. just hang in for beta 3. people will be impressed i hope as this will be our ultimate update.

regarding trainer requests i was gonna say for the last time to pm me them but instead im going to close the service completly. i think there is over 100 custom traienrs now which is pretty good. much better than expected.

i might allow the odd trainer request here and there but not as a public service now.

well enough updates for now.

[Rantis_]

Hey!

I was playing the game yesterday and my game crashed few times in two places...

1. At the Lake of Rage, the game crashes when I challenged the red gyarados. I had golbat as my first pokemon, and when I changed it to some other, it didn't crash anymore.

2. At Mahogany town, in the Rocket base. The floor where you're finding the passwords. In the room where's the female rocket who knows the first password, there is somekind of scientist. When I'm trying to ask the scientist, the game crashes.

BTW. I play the game on my psp with "unofficial gpSP kai 32 test 0.7"
And I don't know if someone already has reported these...

But anyway it's a wonderful hack, you have done great work

[onyx79]

I have a problem in the game,this is at the rocket invasion at goldenrood at the 5th floor there is a rocket grunt discussed as a director,he should fight me but he doesn't he just talks and I can't get the key....

Almost certain that Red Gyarados is available before Cianwood, you just can't get past the cookie guy until after Cianwood I think :p

[dirk123]

Here is the "Pokemon Location FAQ".

One important thing!
The underground and the map with the outside of the Whirl Islands are the only places that I haven't done.
I can't find the "Outside Whirl Islands" map in Advance Map and the Underground is way to big to do.

Wow, doing this big beast showed me that 1 HOENN starter is available. If advance map isn't lying to me, then you can capture wild Mudkips near Ice Path in the water, so check the FAQ!

Yeah it was already reported. I had same type of bug as well...

Oh and by the way does anyone know what's Pikachu's OW sprite doing in Lake of Rage? I remembered it because Rantis pointed LoR

[dirk123]

This is really cool. Thanks Dirk, but what's an advance map?

Advance Map is one of the programs that a hacker uses to make maps in the pokemon games. It also show you where which pokemon is located, what scripts are on which map etc.

Well, if you read my walkthrough than you would have known that that pikachu (who can talk) gives you an EXP Share.

[GymLeaderLance99]

Just a bit of a heads-up: is the Rival in Victory Road going to be slowed down a bit? He walks in really fast and leaves really fast. =/ Also, a minor note: the sign in front of Indigo Plateau reads "Indego". XD

[Bill_taco]

i found me a sweet glitch in the mystery stone panel chamber if you press A on the little tablet thingy you get all glitched up, i would post a screenie but i cant yet ;(

what happens is the floor goes black along with the walls, but the two statues next to you get all glitched & such, but them two people stay there. After this happens you cannot move.

PM me for screenies

I play it on Visual Boy advance

[Jenzelio]

Must i say I love this game?
Very nice hack.
I wish i could make something this awesome.
:/

Or be involved in some group hack or something. Too bad i dont have any skills in hacking.
XD

i guess thats why i just play them.

[uchiha sasuke]

I have to say it, the location faq is excellent.
I suggest, if you have time Dirk123, to add screenshots for every route you describe (like what you did in the caves)
Thank you, for sharing with us such valuable information about Liquid Crystal.
Also, it would be nice if you could do something similar to the real pokedex.
Anyway, congratulations!

The routes are not really necesarry, because you can check the Johto/Kanto map on which route you are.
I would like to do a pokedex kind of thing, but I will rather wait till beta 3, when all pokemon are available.

Hey...

I found a little thing again which crashes my game...

I'm now at Victory Road battling with my rival, and when he sends out his kadabra, my game crashes. I have tried to battle him with three different pokemon now and it just keeps crashing. Does it crash with VBA or no$(?) emulators?

And I don't know is this reported before, for some reason i'm too lazy to search that from 110 pages :)

Some trainers have a "crashing" pokemon. Most of them can be avoided by 1HKO the enemy pokemon.

Well, that's kind a difficult because it crashes just before the fight with that kadabra would start. And jippee, i use save states and i was a real idiot when i saved on place when i'm choosing pokemon against that kadabra. Luckily i have another save state, but in that state i'm fighting with latios, so it's little bit far away... But it's better than nothing...

Hi,
I've got a question.
I have received an egg in Blackthorn City and I wanted to know which Pokemon will hatch from that egg and when??
I went through whole Jotho and the egg is still an egg and it says that it will take a long time till the egg will hatch -.-
