Are you playing on an iphone or ipod? If so you can use the save state button to save before you attack and guarantee that you hit him. If you have the patience you can keep going back by using load state until you get a critical hit.

i just started the game and it is awesome ... found a minor bug ... when you get the pokeballs and pokedex from prof. ivan if you go to douba road, encounter any pokemon and then heal at your house and come back at the lab, the event is repeated and you get the pokedex and pokeballs again ... just a minor bug dont bothor fixing it as it helped me and will also do so for others...

How did you find turtwig???

if the secret passage is open then go in it and continue the story.if it is saying ---- recieved badge
then no problem this means it has obtained the badge just continue the story line

I can't move the boulder, I have strength and defeated the last gym. Idk why it's not letting me use it out of battle

Where is the coin case in dark rising?

Located at ICELAND CITY.

From there you can find a Restaurant and there is an Old Man[?] sitting at the back of the restaurant.

Talk to him and he will give you Coin Case.

You can also do this on VBA.
And yeah, this is an effective way, I've done it myself to defeat him.

well, you better get used to it then, because there are SO MANY BUGS through the game that you'll lost count of them

there are a LOT (and i mean it) of events that repeat if you talk to someone twice or walk by the same spot more than once, a sh1tload of battles with legendaries that you can battle (and capture!!) twice (or even more), and tons of other stuff...

but these things don't really bother me that much, i'm enjoying the game, but if there's one thing that i really dislike about this hack, it's the grammar, oh boy, so many mistakes with your/your're/there/theirs/etc etc

i know this may sound like irony, seeing how my english sucks, but that's because english isn't my first (or second or even third) language, we don't speak english at all over here, but that doesn't mean it's cool to read something with so many mistakes

Pardon my ignorance if this has been discussed before but my game keeps freezing when i battle Vladimir in Novella Lab when he sends out Zen Mode. Has anyone else encountered this problem and if so is there anyway to fix it or get around it some how? thank you for your help

I'm sorry if this has already been mentioned, but is it possible to link using vbalink in Dark Rising? I wanted to set up a tournament in my afterschool Gaming Club, but every time I select the proper group to join in the link menu, it freezes. I'm running two instances of vbalink, both running the Dark Rising Rom from two different sources with two different battery (.sav) files, and it always freezes. I've linked the emulators themselves (through Options > Link) properly. Since this is a FireRed hack, it should work the same as it does in FireRed, right? :/

Hello, sorry if this is stupid or has already been asked, but I just took the boat to Millennium town from Dark Rising HQ. I fought my rival in the spirit tower and lost, but I had not been in the Pokecenter yet so I was teleported back to Dark Rising HQ. How do I get back to Millennium town? I had to leave right after I lost and I saved then (I use GBA4IOS so I can save at any time) and I didn't realize I would be teleported to DRHQ until after I got back on. My only other save was from 2 days and several hours ago. Can anyone help? The blue-haired girl (I forget her name) isn't in the HQ anymore and I can't enter the port in DRHQ.

Is a masterball the only way to catch Giratina? I got him down to red health and sleeping, I must've thrown about 30 ultra balls and I don't think any of them even got one of the 3 ticks (I'm not really a pokemaniac, not sure what they're called)

My goodness, so many Pokemon hacks. x) I think I'll be busy for a whole year with all of these great looking hacks popping out of nowhere. I was sold when I saw Yami Yugi mentioned in the description. xD

Not the only one but the quickest one...
It still has catch rate 3 so it can be captured without MBall.

I'm sorry but I don't know what catch rate actually means, if I had him at 1/16 hp and sleeping what would my chance of capturing him with an ultra ball be?
