FireRed hack: Pokémon Gaia Version

    ok i will try that


    EDIT: ok, it's fine now
    thank you
    I think you should specific the rom need for the patch incase someone don't know (like me)
    Glad to hear! I've added it to the README.

    Wow, my bad. I guess Pumpkboo can learn Fire moves after all. I guess it makes sense if I think about it a little more, with candles inside pumpkins etc. It just struck me as odd when I first saw it.

    Some more observations:
    • Empoleon's cry seems to have been cut weirdly. It has a very small sound effect as the cry is ending (maybe from where the cry was starting to repeat when it was being recorded?). As I've been hearing it quite a lot, I thought I'd point it out in the hope that it'd be an easy fix.
    • There's an apostrophe missing in the Casteliacone's description. It reads "Castelia Citys" instead of "Castelia City's".
    • I'm not sure if it's a bug or not but when you look at merchandise in all the shops it says " ow! Tons of Pokemon stuff!", I assume it's meant to be "Wow!" but the W seems to be missing for some reason.
    • Again, not sure if you know about this, but U-Turn forces you to switch out even if it just took down your opponent's final pokemon. Whoever switches in will then gain experience for beating it even though they never entered the battle prior to that pokemon fainting.
    • I caught one of the overworld wild Electrodes in Telmurk Warehouses, but the Poke Ball didn't disappear after the battle. So I could actually keep fighting it and catching it over and over again. When I defeated it, the Poke Ball disappeared as normal.
    I've fixed the second, third and fifth points. I've made a note of the others and will look into them, although I think the U-turn bug is just down to an improper implementation as opposed to being a bug.

    Amazing hack! Excellent visuals and graphics, OK story, fine characters, cool rival, and awesome scripting! The variety of Pokemon makes me wanna dance. The Battle Marsh was damn fun! I can't wait for more!
    Thank you!

    Thanks Spherical Ice, and how do I get duskinor? Or is that in the read me?
    It is indeed in the README.txt: as of the latest version, you need to give a Dusclops a Dusk Stone.

    Really good hack. It didn't take me very long to complete this version however.
    Also, Mega-Pidgeot is still Normal-fighting, even after patching the new version.
    Ah, my bad. It should be fixed now, if you redownload.

    Hey Alice! I hope you read my past comment. I really really hope you'd enable link battles, I really enjoyed that on florasky (bcoz that's the only hack I played where link battles work). Still,great work!
    Thank you. I still don't plan to enable link battles, sorry.

    HEy I was just curious as to what the colored letters are next to the stats? And what they all mean. I am unfamiliar with these. I was thinking maybe they were saying which stats are higher/lower? But I wanted to know what the letters meant!

    Also really like how you make your hacks, I love searching all the nooks and crannies in game finding a whole bunch of items! :D

    One thing I REALLY like is the battle scene, the color scheme is really nice, love the pkmn stat boxes! I also think it's pretty bomb that you have the correct cries for the New pokemon!

    Your games are SUPER fun and I am Excited for more updates!

    ~Preciouspaws
    The coloured letters indicate the IVs in that stat, where an S rank indicates 31 (the maximum), and E- indicates 0. Thank you!

    I agree with you when it comes to finding everything in a game i get scared if i do that in most hacks as i feel i might break the game.

    But are most hacks protected from massive corruptions from over hoarding items?
    There should be no downside to collecting items, other than running out of space in your bag.

    great update and thanks once again for the awesome hack

    but, how can i evolve tangela ?
    and how come nosepass didn't evolve in the generator while magnetone did evolve?

    also just a suggestion for evolution
    like shelmet has to be in same party with karablass to evolve ,
    just to have a special feel for them

    thank you once again for the awesome hack
    Yeah I'm really not sure why the evolutions are breaking now, but I've added it to the bugs list in the README.

    Thats actually more a relief then anythink it stops me playing most beta tested games unless they have a high gym count. But if you crammed the pc and had no issue it woudnt hurt to actually start playing this hack.
    Thank you for being so informative and your linoone picking up 5 moonstones is very amazing as moonstones are hard to come by well unless you increase the drop rate i believe.

    Has the drop rate for most items been increase or decreased
    The rate for Pickup has not been changed, but the items that it can find has.

    This hack is TOTALLY worth playing, I haven't had any issues yet, Just being cautious of the known bugs that are listed in the read me.
    My linoone also found me 5-6 rare candy's and a sunstone. I am guessing that the rates have been altered, oe I am just getting super lucky! OR maybe it depends on where you are? I picked up most of the stones in caves/ desert areas and my rare candies were in fields. (My linoone picking up items wasn't in the gaia version, it was in the creators old Cobalt version. but I am assuming they used most of the same things in this version as well)
    Thank you!

    another question
    why everytime i breed with ditto, it will hatch as the other parent
    i breed sylveon with ditto, hatch sylveon
    not only sylveon , all of the pokemon i tried, still the same
    and nosepass will evolve in warehouse that has the man that said he wasn't supposed to be there right ? but my nosepass won't evolve

    already at the 14 nov version
    Yeah I'm really not sure why this is happening either; it's also been noted.

    Thank you very much for the update, I really appreciate you effort on the hack!


    I had spotted a few other bugs:
    Mega Charizrad Y's Drought can only be active if it is switch out and in once.
    It seems that the Max pp of night slash has 144, not a bad bug though cause I don't need to worry about use up all the pp XD


    Will the variety of moves can be learned from the Move Tutor increase (by Shards or BP)?


    Also a suggestion for TM No.9 Bullet Seed,
    TM 9 can be obtained after getting Surf (mid-game play),
    Bullet Seed is a good move for pokemons having Skill Link or Technician,
    but in general it is a bit weak in that timing ,
    Could it be change to moves like Energy Ball or Grass Knot?
    Thanks! The issue with Drought is already noted in the README. I agree on the point about Bullet Seed, but I won't change it for now. I'll keep it in mind, though!

    Losing all my money every time I get wiped/whited out even in a wild battle lol

    [EDIT[
    Okay, I admit, I've checked the items using Item Manager. I found a few bugs:
    - Description of Flame and Toxic Orb was interchanged.
    - TM03, TM19, TM43, TM49, HM05 was broken. Run-time error '380': Invalid Property Value (probably because of beta? Not sure)
    The money bug is already in the README. I've fixed the Flame and Toxic Orb bugs, but the TMs are not bugged, you're just using a tool that doesn't support expanded moves, lol.

    Hi! One more question: how I can evolve my Piloswine to Mamoswine?
    The evolution method should be as it is in vanilla, but at the moment it appears to be bugged (like a lot of the new ones, unforunately). Either way, it wouldn't be possible in this beta due to the lack of a Move Relearner.

    man, i'm your fan. it's the greatest game hack of pokemon that i played. my favorite. just thinking to help you, there are just a little problem with geoduge icon
    Sucess to your game man, i loved it.
    Thank you! Geodude's icon has been fixed for a while, though.

    The ability of Mega Heracross doesn't work :'( It didn't hit 5 times in each use with fury attack
    I will look into this, thank you.

    Can you please leave the link arena in the poke centers. My brother and I would like to play this competitively against each other, we use emulators on our phones and It would be okay if you just leave one link arena so we can battle and trade. P.S is there gonna be a battle frontier in the future?
    As I've said a few times already, I don't plan to do this for now, sorry. The Battle Marsh will have a few facilities shared by the Battle Frontier, and others are planned to be featured elsewhere in the region, too.

    where do you get the super rod on version 2.5?
    also the 6th gym is super annoying...
    I may have forgotten, but I don't think Super Rod is available yet.

    This is a brilliant game so far. Wish i could get my hack to be as good as this some day.
    Thank you.

    I've fixed a few bugs and updated the egg moves for Pokémon to match their OR/AS counterparts - of course, this really doesn't matter too much as it seems hatching in general isn't working properly yet. Either way, the README.txt has been updated with the bugs and you can redownload if you want (though for now I'd wait until I've fixed some of the bugs). Thanks for your patience and I'm sorry it's been such a rocky release so far.

    Ok so I downloaded 2.5 when it first released, and just downloaded the newest one yesterday, however, it does not retain my sav file, so for now I'll leave my game and dusclops as is( because in the initial 2.5 a dusk stone does not work on him), thank you the information though. Also I made it to the end of this beta, interesting choice for the 6th gym!

    Hey just curious (assuming this hasn't been answered before) where do I find an electabuzz? I recently got back into playing this hack and I never asked this before since I was busy with other stuff at the time. I wanna know so I can breed a chimchar with Thunderpunch.

    You can find Electabuzz in Telmurk outskirts

    I don't know if this has been answered, but I didn't find it in the README.txt file:

    How do I evolve Karrablast and Shelmet? In the vanilla version you're supposed to trade one for the other and they'd evolve.

    Doesnt matter if it was a rocky release youve made a brilliant hack that can only be praise wat ever little bugs their are and updated the README.txt is always an added bonus as if was me doing a hack it would proberly be last thing on my list and id forget more often then not. Thank you again and i hope all continues to go smoothly as i would love this game at completion as i love pokemon games its likee they really dont stop when you can use base rom to create many more games so im very happy with all the work from hackers and the pokemon community too as they play alot of the betas and ask many question sometimes the same question sometimes reminding a hacker of something missed or not added or bugs etc but overall its pleasant to have a community where we can all relate to one thing mostly and thats love for pokemon

    I think I found a bug here. Munna appears to be an all-male species. I have yet to see a single female Munna. Also it seems the synchronize ability isn't working to copy the nature of the user (in this case an adamant munna) onto those I encounter in the wild. I know it's not a sure thing, but I should have seen at least one other adamant pokemon in all the 20 minutes I spent searching for pokemon to work with said nature.

    Actually that's probably just leftover from vanilla Fire Red. Synchronize didn't have a field effect until Emerald, same goes for other such abilities like Magnet Pull, Lightningrod, etc. Chances are it just hasn't been implemented into this hack yet.

    One doubt Spherical Ice different saves from the 2.5 don´t work because i tried due to an issue with my version due to absol not appearing and know it crashes the game if i load the previous saves.
    PS: I´m using a windows phone emulator to play it.
    Another thing i don´t see mantyke evolution mehtod in the readme.text and i also experienced the bug with the money is there a way to fix it. Again thank you for this RomHack.

    Another doubt Spherical Ice does any pokemon learn egg moves because i hatched a joltik with a spinarak and it didn´t learn cross poison.
    I started a new file due to the loss of data and want to know to see if i have to change my team.
    Thank you for this game

    (Second attempt at posting. The forum decided to eat my post because of the 'no links' crap.)

    I have been thoroughly enjoying your game since I first found out about it on Youtube, Spherical Ice. :3 I pretty much joined just to comment here on the game.

    However, my first comment isn't going to be about how great Gaia is, or how annoying the current bugs are. It is stated in this thread, on the download page for the newest version and the README file that saves from previous versions won't work on the newest. This peeved me a bit since I am the kind of player that grows attached to their team.

    Much to my surprise, I found my old save actually worked with the new version. Could this be a bug, or did I just get lucky? (I would post the images I took of my Gardevoir from the old and new versions, but the site is being a butt about it.)

    Edit: Let's try this.
    Old: puu.sh/lt22X/6f090365c2-.png
    New: puu.sh/lt1YS/8728c03e6a-.png
    Just remove the dash by the .png bit.
