Okay, either I'm being EXTREMELY derp, or something's wrong.

I've gone through 3 Ruby ROMs now, and when I apply the English Patch, it's either still in Portuguese or I get a white screen. I'm using Lunar IPS for patching, I have the latest VBA, I have the save type set for Flash 128K, I've tried it on NO$GBA, but this happens every time I try to load the ROM.

Are the ruby ROMs v1.0? It's important to note the ROM must be exactly that version, the patch only works with it.


Grantos354, it might be a corrupt ROM and you never knew it.

If you look a few pages back, someone put a link to download a version of Ruby that works. I downloaded it from there and it's working perfectly fine !

Is this a remake of Platinum for the DS into a gba version? If not what are the differences? (i.e. are all 493 pokemon available?

thanks in advance

Use 0907 - pokemon - ruby version (u) (v1.0).
There is in google with 4shared link, it'll work correctly.

Firstly, great hack, I am very happy to find the translated version. A big thanx to the translator too :D
Now, I have a problem that I couldn't solve using the search option. I patched the english patch in a clean english ruby (version 1) rom. Everything works fine except when I try to get a free pokemon from someone.my game freezes then :/
for example, when i try to get a hoen starter,after clicking yes,the game freezes.same happens when i try to get the free miltank.and i really wanted to change my wooper with mudkip v.v
so,a solution would be great plz :D
ps: is it a common problem of everyone's english LP game?if not,i might using the different ruby rom o.o'
Edit: I just tried patching on other different pokemon ruby roms including downloading exactly the one posted in this thread.still nothing :/
and this thing also happens when i try to take zorua in esmerald city,larvitar in bramboch city,lapras in seenport city,drifloon in that dark city :/

The game does not freezes... Its just that you have to press again then the game will continue. I mean you have to press A 2 times

can i ask when someone fix the EXP bugs ?

Instead of asking about fixation you should rally enjoy training your pokes while battling venipede..

You shold read the posts on Wesley's website. there is a trainer in one of the 2 regions who gives you the ticket after battling him..

I don't think its possible now but you could play again with your save file...

Unfortunately no... this is one of minor bugs we know of but since noone actually wants or has time to fix them :/

Excellent hack, the only thing that bother me sometimes are the writing errors both in the portuguese and the translated versions (I'm brazilian too and a english translator, so i'm not just saying without knowing anything)
