FireRed hack: POKEMON: Dark Rising

[ganesha]

Download the latest version of VBA and try, it would work. If doesn't patching is not good or your ROM is not proper.

I just fix the DR HQ Mission/Getting back to Millennium City problem. You can enter the cave at Huntik route now. Just download the patch on the first post, do all of the patching stuff, then while you're playing, go in and out of a building so the changes can take affect, then go through the cave entrance on huntik route. Hope everything works out for you now and everyone else who's stuck at this problem.





DR2 Thread coming soon...

Which emulator can this be played on?

Thx for reply

I know that the creator of this hack wants to move on, and Im not sure if this was ever mentioned, but, after you deliver the parcel in the very beginning of the game, if you go back into the Prof's lab, the event where you deliver the parcel is replayed, and you get 5 more Pokeballs, thus giving an infinite source of Pokeballs and Money (with enough time and patience.)

No one's ever reported that problem and I just tested it. I was able to walk back into the lab after the parcel event and Prof.Ivan graded my pokedex, the event didn't occur again. Make sure you're using the correct Fire Red version Rom & that it's clean.

I can never seem to tell what version of the Fire Red rom Im using. I mean, it's not that bad of a glitch, but I'll still look into a newer version of the ROM to prevent it if we need to go back to the Ivan.

OK, Ive tried alot of Fire Red Roms, and I can either not get them to load the hack or they do recreate the Pokedex getting event every time I enter the lab. I dont know what's going on, and if I have to talk to Ivan after said event for a later event, then Im screwed out of it.

Don't worry, you won't have too. But to re-load your save files, on your gba emulator go to File-Load-then find the save file on your computer, then click it. Don't go to "Load game" when you're reloading a save file from a different patch or rom.

I do Control+R to restart my emulator. Ive got the Save Settings right so that I can save my game in it. Also, I dont know if this is a nod to someone, but I can never seem to get a Male Bagon as a starter. I thought it was like you saying that you loved Bagon and decided to make it female or if I'm just having crap luck with it. But yeah, knowing we never have to go see Ivan again after delivering the parcel is a load off my mind.

As for sacred ash, I guess Victini would have to be holding it and the last alive?

I dont think thats how sacred ash works. I'd love to know though. I've had victini holding it and being the last alive, full health, low health, about to faint, fainted, and nothing happens. you cant USE the item either, its annoying.

oh that was weird, i just used it. has to be done outside of battle when victini is only one alive.

just wanted to say that DR1 is such an awesome game that i have been w8ing on DR2 all day long or more like since u said it will take 2 days...do u have an update on the date of it coming out?
and will it be playable till the end of the game or just a beta?(in that case on newer beta will we get to keep our team from the prev beta)

and once again iwill say Awsome Game i have played a lot of hacks and this is defently my fav and the main reason for it is that u toke ur time and got the breeding and lower lvl moves so that the pokemons will be able to be it's best version

Overall, Im just now downloading this hack and gonna give it a whirl.

Seriously you don't need to wait for a long time to sign up. The setup there is so simple

Well it seems then you have still more events to do then. Go to the Huntik route and keep going North into it. Jump into the water and move north to reach the three legendary dogs and after them The Dark Hideout and complete the missions there

You again bro. Well VBA is guaranteed the best emulator. Can you tell me exactly what is your problem. Try re patching your ips file with another ROM and see the result???

[cheatfreak23]

Here's my updated team and levels as of getting through the Mount Moon area:

Excadrill- 33
Shelgon- 31
Munna- 29
Zebstrika- 28
Torkoal- 29
Swellow- 22

To be quite honest: I dont really care about a walkthrough for this hack. More than likely, Im gonna end up having my starter fully evolved and Lvl 100 before the third gym, so there's really no need for a walkthrough. And I know folks are gonna say "that ruins the game for you man!" but like I said, I really dont care anymore. These hacks are always set way too difficult for me. I mean, the Gym Leader always has Pokemon that are nearly 20 levels above the highest Random Encounter rate of the previous area when it should be around 8 levels higher.

Dunno if this was reported as a bug or not. But when you fight Sydney in the gateway buildinng place (south of the daycare) then you go back to heal your pokemon, you have to go through Battle Cave again and when you do, Prof.Ivan does his shpiel again and you have to battle him again. All the time his sprite is not even in the room since he left.

[DCson17]

This game looks beautiful, with a whole lot of promise.
I'll have to DL it when I get a chance later. x

That falls into "repeated events" category which was reported many times before

[nomi1993a]

hey dark rising girl i have a suggestion for u, in DR2 plz put deino and axew as starters or early in the game , i love hydreigon my favorite pokemon, and like haxorus as well, thanx in advance

[k-van]

Also the double battles that you scripted with just one trainer are a bit buggy. I had one pokemon left, but because it was a double battle, the game thought I had two pokemon alive. So at the start of the battle, I sent out my living poke, as well as the last poke that died. But it had 0 health. it let me choose a move for it to use but when the fighting came, it did not make its move and the ai did not target it either because it was dead.

Lets just call it the living dead glitch or the zombie glitch lol.

[4thGenAce:D]

Hoo. Gee.. Life's making me so buuuusssssyyyyy!!!!!!! Oh my.. XD

@DRG: DR2 up? Where!? O.o
@alienhunterx: Well, not for me (After playing an old version of the game, with no lucky eggs YET!)
@Ash493: I'd have to agree for Lucario.. XD As well as Ferro (but would that make Umbreon more than a legendary too? XD)

[k-van]

It seems I missed the mystic badge... My "5th" badge was actually my fourth and now I can't use fly nor do I have a town map >.<

[icecool86]

what happen to the map when you want to fly. I cant Fly anywhere but the place that Im at. im at novella town.

[Sleeping Snorlax]

Does anyone know if Zekrom's Teravolt ability works in this hack? I tried using EQ on a pokemon that has levitate, but it never worked?

That's a 5th gen ability. It's not in the hack.

When you're in Novellatown, you should only be able to fly to the Dark Rising HQ or Pinnocle City. I don't know why you can only fly to Novella Town but there's plenty of ways to get to other cities that you may want to get too.



SORRY FOR THE DELAY

The Dark Rising 2 thread will be submitted tonight. Keep it mind, the thread still has to be reviewed by the mods and please note the thread does not mean there's a playable demo of the hack. It's simply the thread to discuss and view DR2. The hack will be released later this yr or sometime next year. You can check out the thread in the progression hacks section within the next 24 hours. Thank you.

Anyone know where I can find a moon stone to evolve Munna?
