    I recently learned that a tool I have been using, PGE, is a little risky, even its creator thinks it is the cause of issues other hackers encountered.
    When I first got start with hacking, finding tools was an issue too. Many tutorials refer to tools that are no longer available :(

    Do anyone know of a list of recommended tools somewhere?
    Here is my current tool list and what I have done to my project using them. So please point out if any of them are bad, or any mod I made is risky, so that I could revert my changes accordingly.

    • Advance Map
      Event Mods and Additional Map.
    • Unofficial XSE
    • pkmsvui
    • Nameless Sprite Editor
      It's the only thing I ever found that can extract FR/LG/Emerald Deoxys' sprite...
    • unZL
      Pokemon and Title Screen Sprite editing
    • G3HS
      Sometime Pokemon sprite editing.
    • PGE
      ROM expansion.

    G3Hs + G3T are the most efficient an effective way to make your edits on Pokémon. G3T can also edit trainers, moves, etc.

    Please stop spreading misinformation.

    I think that perhaps you are offended that I said "even its creator thinks it is the cause of issues other hackers encountered."

    I got that thought when I read that mentioning PGE "triggered your alert." Not at the exact post you linked, but on another help thread. When I first read it, I understood it that you are always on alarmed that PGE might break things. Only after reading more recently did I understand that you were talking about an automated bot.

    If that is actually the case, I am very sorry for misunderstanding you, and spreading the misunderstanding.

    For what it's worth, I am actually very fond of PGE and has been using it as the go-to tool for anything it can do (evolution modding, toying with new items). I only started being wary after reading the false information you talked of.

    From your responses in the forums, I take it PGE is generally very safe to use, and the only thing it could break is some text here and there?
