4th Gen The Tweaking Discussion Thread

[NatureKeeper]

Tweaking is great if done correctly. I managed to catch Shaymin, Arceus and Darkrai. Arceus is the only one of those three that is kind of tricky to catch. Shaymin and Darkrai have no protection at all. If you tweak correctly just go for Shaymin, Arceus and Darkrai!

**I can't stand the fact that every single cool Pokemon is only obtainable by event. Pretty soon we'll be able to get Ratata ONLY BY EVENT xD!***

WHAT?! ARCUES?! That's still impossible except if... NOTHING HAPPENS! This is so... Nvm... But this is unbelievable. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

 

[Dragonmaster91]

It is possible, but so far highly unlikely.

Edit: Someone else found the HoO, turns out they can't recreate it...
As always...

Also, I will get load lines real quick.

Here's one.

That's all I could dig up for the moment.

The 16x16 map chunks are aligned in a grid. The grid is the same as that of the Town Map; to find a load line, simply find a line where moving across it takes you to the next tile in the Town Map (use the Poketch for this). That's half the load lines accounted for. The others are just 16 steps away from those ones.
At least, that's what I can make out :)

Theory

I have a theory on Arceus, and if I am correct, it is bad...

So far, it seems that the location of the Hall of Origin randomly changes...
This means you will have to look all over the void for one location... I hope I'm wrong...

HAHA!

I just tried to get in the abyss, and I got a freeze, and an unwalkable abyss to the south (speed three).

Trying again.

Got it.

got lucky in about 10 minutes.

At Darkrai.

Interesting, I got lost in fake sinnoh, and still found him.

Man, do I have a story...

I got to fake sinnoh, and went up. I got lost though when I went to Canalave. So I explored, and found Iron Island, then tried going north and found one of the islands. Worriedly, I checked the internet to see what Newmoon Island looked like... I was at the wrong one. I almost did what Horizon did, and save at Fullmoon Island, but I went to Newmoon Island and nabbed him!

With my level 25 Monferno... lol

Edit: I just froze my game tweaking something. It was cool at first, the music. Then, my top screen went white, and my poketch got really glitchy. Like, different colors and stuff.

 

[NatureKeeper]

No, It's sort of impossible. Your theory.

Every place has it's own area in the void. It'll never move, or else it repoints itself from time to time, which is impossible, because a program cannot program itself, duh...

Yeah... good point... Well, I'm out of ideas.

 

[cjt1994]

I find tweaking the game far too risky, and after my original save file on my first Diamond crashed because of it, I'm not planning on using it again. Just to warn everyone, this is really risky.

This has been said throughout the whole topic, expecially by me several times. I got lucky and managed to get to Darkrai and Giratina without something happening.

 

[Espeon_Explorer]

I've tried this over and over again,
but so far I've been either bumping into an invisible wall in Jubilife city, or the abyss wont let me in.
Very frusterating..
Is this supposed to happen??

 

[txteclipse]

Wow, I thought Nintendo fixed this glitch in the US version of D/P. I'm thinking of moving all the stuff I care about to Platinum and trying this out.

I have a question, though. In the more recent games, if you do something dumb like turn the game off while saving, you just get a message saying that your file has reverted back to an older save. Does that system not work for things like this?

 

[Stronkadonk]

I have heard that in games made after December of 2008 that the Tweaking Glitch was patched. The saving with the tweaking glitch... I'm not sure on that one. I'm no expert on it, but I THINK it does.

You mean it does screw up the save, or it reverts to an uncorrupted save?

 

[Wichu]

No, it will reload an uncorrupted save. However, the thing about messing up the save in the Mystery Zone is that the game thinks it's OK; the actual save data is not corrupted, but the location it tries to load doesn't exist. So saving in the wrong part will screw your save file anyway; you'd have to restart to fix it. Alternatively, you could try sending your game to Nintendo; they would be able to fix it too.

No, they fixed the surfing glitch that was in the very early Japanese releases.

 

[txteclipse]

Well I tried it out a few minutes ago, and getting the actual glitch going is kind of hard. I'm just about to trade my prized pokes over to Platinum, and then I'll get started looking for things. I'm going after Shaymin first, and then I guess I'll look for Arceus.

I would search for Arceus, but I have to much to lose atm.

 

[txteclipse]

Y'see, if Nintendo would just let us save multiple files, this wouldn't be a problem at all.

 

[Dragonmaster91]

Agreed, that would be very useful.

Thing is, you would have so and so on one save, and so and so on the other, so that would just really not work if you think about it...

So, as useful as it would be, there would be a catch to it.

 

[Pokeyomom]

Why not just use a an @R with run anywhere? Lol.

Because they're no cheaters.... this is exploiting a glitch to catch things otherwise impossible to catch. AR takes the fun out of achieving a goal that no one else can.
