Pokémon Shiny Gold!

[Mr. Sanders]

Sorry, didn't know about the restrictions on .gba files. woops. That explains why I could never find one here! And I know that Zel hates people who do pirated versions of games. (I saw the Say no to pirates thing at the start of the game) But when I bought it I didn't know it was a pirate, I only found out after some research... O.k can somebody tell me how to play the beta files I can't work it out!

Yours faithfully,
Mr. Sanders

I'll upload a screen when I have the time.

Does anyone else have this bug?

He's saying when totodile is in slot 1 the game says the normal thing when you run away, but when there's a different pokemon in slot 1 it says something else

I patched to Shiny Gold Beta 5 perfectly. No Glitches.

Just caught Celebi, with an Ultra Ball.

Zel, when are you going to give all of the trainers in the game proper names. For example the first trainer you encounter on Route 30 doesn't have a real name.

that's normal he made them "wierd names" because they are REMATCH trainers and the ones with exclemation marks at the end are so he can tell the firered ones from the shnygold ones i think

Is it just happening to Sentret, or every Pokemon besides Totodile? I'm going to make a guess at this - it may have to do with the fact that Sentret can have the "Run Away" ability. When a Pokemon with this ability runs from battle, a different message than usual comes up:

Normal Escape Scene:


Using Run Away:


Maybe something in the game is causing the rest of Sentret's escape message (everything after its name) to be cut off. I caught a Sentret to test this out, and the bug didn't happen to me, so I can't say for sure what's happening.

umm thats cause Sentrets ability is Run Away. With Run Away sentret can run away from any pokemon and it comes up "Sentet fled using run away".

This is all okay and normal to firered, nothing to do shiny gold

Not to mention Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Leaf Green... Probably Diamond and Pearl too.

The usual running method without the ability "run away" may cause a "cannot escape!" message (especially with higher speed pokes). However, in theory, a newly hatched Eevee (always born with 'Run Away') can run from a level 100 speed deoxys.

[gbhero]

hey zel just a suggestion. Many Youtube users do well for their GSC remixes..Ask them for help?Maybe?

[TreeckoLv.100]

Hey zel, long time bud. Shiny Gold is getting better and better man. Love what you've done, this is one heck of a hack. Wish I had more to say or ask, but what haven't already been said in your thread right?

[LastHand]

Why would you need to run away from something? Just go right though it and kill it...lol. Any Ideas on the legends we will see in the next beta?

[Silent Storm]

I have got around to playing this hack on my psp.

I have probably said this before, but the only issues I have with this hack is the mapping issues on towns and routes and the changing of the dungeons. Apart from that it is okay.

Maybe when the hack is complete, I can fix up some maps, what do you say zel.

[TheKingofKings]

lol, Team Rocket stole my Pokemon. How do I get them back?

[DarthSenorQueso]

First off please post it in the help secction and second go to the bottem cut tree talk to it a few times and koga will help you.

This question gets asked a lot, check some of the older posts.
Or ask it in the thread in the scapbox.

I think this is what you do though (i forgot, but i remember the other posts)

Spoiler:

Go to a tree and press A twice (am i right, it was something like that?) I think it was a cut tree... Sorry if i'm wrong.

I think it says on the Shiny Gold Help thread how to get your pokes back.

[Apple Inc.]

Wow, It took just one Ultra Ball to get Celebi. and it took 45 to get HO-OH plus a timer ball after 60 turns and a luxury ball. Oh and there is a thing with the Koga rematch in Fuschia. He doesnt face you when you talk to him.

[Gary93]

Oh, very good zel, the beta 5 is very interesting, Continue this way!

[Giovanni Boss]

Zel, could you send me a Pm [or put it here] with all pokémons findable in each floor of tin tower? I can just find the first, the roof [no pokémon] and the second, in A-map. If all other floors have the same pokémons as the sacond, it'd be pratical just to say. Otherwise, please send me the list, as i need it to do the SGdex.

[AntiRellik]

this hack is indeed great... I am surprised how RSE/FRLG hacking has advanced...
I havent touched a rom in years lol. There were only 2 or 3 pokemon GBA hacks that had a lot of GFX hacked before... and none had music edits either
Your hack has made me see how much more I could do with a Fire Red rom.
Good luck with the hack!

[master brodie]

I can't believe that Sg has gotten this far!! way 2 go Zel

[Matt Silver]

Why the hell did this not win Hack Of The Year! It's so fracking awesome.
Good job with B5 zel! Keep it up!

[zel 2.0]

Woohoo! No words... Just reply...! O.o

If I were to pick, the "killing R32 PC" is by the far the strangest (with all the flashing colors and freezing, it's pretty strange to see )
But about the most complicated, I'd say it's the thing on fixing the Pokedex locations, because most likely, I'm gonna be needing M_X's help there (if it's even possible to fix it in some way...), about the rest, most of them could be fixed with a bit of effort in scripting (sometimes I'm lazy on fixing some...)

Not too long ago, you were all cursing me for not having the Johto's world map implemented. And now that that's fixed, there's a new problem coming... Sigh... I now know how Nintendo must feel... XD

WAAAAA! So, I was wondering, could you post a link to download it as a .gba file? PLEASE? PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

Yours faithfully,
Mr. Sanders

As it was explained, roms are not allowed to be posted. So, with the patch at the first post, and with this thread you'll do fine, if not, just PM me.

Anyways, keep it up and good luck!

It was the result of Neos' touch on the titlescreen. Unfortunately, he couldn't keep the animated clouds (which remember they were confused with smoke, anyway ), so, we'll have to stick with what we have.

I'm pretty sure that if I change them, I'll confuse them with the people I still have available to edit, so, to avoid some confusions, I'm gonna keep them like that till the last release (or till it's at a good point)

It was discussed already. I'm just glad it wasn't another bug. But... It was strange... That is a thing well known in the Pokemon world... :o

Well, thanks for showing up around for a while, T100! I'm always happy when I see people from the "old times" :D

The only that I can talk about is Lugia (which is the obvious one), but the other three I cannot reveal... Just think they have some cool events

I'm sorry, but, I think this post was posted on the wrong thread. It was more like something that should go into one of the threads at the Rom Hacking section (maybe the Graphics vs Gameplay one?), and not at a specific hack's thread. Debating about rom hacking's not the idea of this thread.

Well, I like doing some changes (and the tile problems will be fixed in the future), but, as I said some time ago, once the final version is released, and after some months, I will allow to use the hack as you want, so you could fix anything you want.

I see, well, I'm gonna fix that.

The 2nd and upper floors are in the same map, so they share the same Pokemon.

Yeah, I was also getting tired of the whole Vista-patching-Emus talk which doesn't belong in here, it goes in the Emulation section, people!, I'll PM a mod for a little cleaning there.

Hmmm... Better not discuss about that on this thread, I'm sure a lot of spam will come out of it, and we want to avoid that.

*faints* ...Phew... That was a lot, but meh...
On updating thing I really wanted to post when I finished Mt.Moon, but I've been a bit busy these last days, so all I have is the mapping finished and I was starting to script there, so I guess tomorrow Mt.Moon's gonna be finished (I so much want to reach Pallet...! >.<)

[destinedjagold]

Eheheheh... Just take it easy, zel, nice and slow, yet sure.

Don't rush things.
Wishing ya the best of luck~

[wow_wow]

After get A Badge from Fuchsia City, what should I do ?
