  • It is such a shame to see this hack fade like every other hack out there. Hopefully, we'll get to see a new project by Sir SphericalIce soon.

  • I understand you not wanting to make the grass feel too crowded, but with all due respect, there may be ways around that issue. You could have NPCs known as Kanto Guy, Johto Guy, etc., who each have pokemon that are otherwise unobtainable in the game that can be bought with battle points (which would also encourage people to use the post-game events) kinda like the Game Corner. This would work, not least because you'd just need to modify an existing script rather than do a load of extra work to make new areas or whatever.

    In the case of legendaries, they could be distributed as prize pokemon for getting a certain win streak in the battle tower. That would also give people an incentive to keep plugging away beyond just battle points. I'd understand if you didn't want to cheapen their legendary status by having them be giveaway pokes, but I'm sure there could be some sort of story reason as to why they're there.

    The other option is a bit more work... but involves the implementation of an immitation Wonder Trade system (offline, of course). Various hacks have now got this, and it can be a way to get random pokemon via in-game trades. Could be something for a post-game area to keep it from being abused early on.

    Of course, it's your choice whether you want to do anything like this, but this is easily the best original GBA Pokemon hack I have ever played. If I am ever to complete a 721 pokedex, it'll be this one. It would just feel like such a shame if it wasn't possible to truly catch them all. What are your thoughts?
    I see where you're coming from and I don't disagree, but I also don't want to have to hold myself to cramming every single Pokémon in. I won't completely rule out the possibility of a 721 version eventually being a thing, but for now that really won't be a focus for me.

    Thanks for responding. You were right, I redownloaded and it fixed the Endure issue.

    One thing I noticed is that the Battle Marsh battles are in Shift mode. Shouldn't it be in Set mode since it's a battle facility?

    Also the first Bug Catcher in Wisp Forest is named "Dmitri". I suppose it should be Dimitri, no?

    Also, could you or someone else tell were can I find:

    Venipede
    Tyrunt
    Numel.

    Thanks again, Spherical.
    Glad the bug was fixed!

    Eventually, yes, the Battle Marsh will be forced Set, but for now it isn't simply because I haven't figured out how to do it.

    Dmitri is a valid spelling of the name: [1] [2] [3]

    Numel can be found in the later areas of Archan Tunnel, the other two are not capturable in v2.5.

    This is the best ROM hack I've ever played. Keep up the amazing work.
    Thank you!

    I agree with @WorldsBoss. You don't have to make special areas or placing 8 different 'mons into one area. The least popular/wanted of all generations could be a reward of some mini-game or something like that. Just for collector-freaks (like me). Also, it would make your hack even more complete. There's no such a great hack as yours with all 721 (for now - Sun/Moon incoming, right?) Pokemon. But it's your call, Spherical. The game is really entertaining at the moment, so I'm sure you make the right decisions.

    I don't have any idea about ROM-hacking, so here's my question: There's no way to increase number of boxes?
    I definitely do not plan to add anything from Gen 7, unless there's a design I absolutely love.

    There is no feasible way to increase the number of boxes, no, as I believe the only known way would 100% break saves, which I'm actively trying to avoid for v3.

    well, with the amount of effort needed to reprogram the game, it's normal to get artist's block or lack of motivation sometimes.... School work is always an energy-draining (necessary) thing to do, so to find time and motivation to do something else is always bad... Anyways, we all look forward to help in any way we can, and can't wait to see it finished! No rush, though, our lives outside this giant bubble called the internet is more important!
    Thanks! I'm definitely not planning on rushing anything with this, haha.

    Pokémon Gaia Version



    Please Help why my mega altaria is a Question mark T_T
    Please read the README file before posting; some Mega Evolutions do not yet have sprites, and Mega Altaria is one of them, so it appears as a ?.

    Where can I get a Gengarite? Also where to find Gible, Charmander, Beldum?
    Halp me guiz
    Please read the FAQ before posting; Gengarite is not available at the moment. None of those Pokémon are, either, except for Charmander through breeding if you got a Charmeleon from Belle (which means you needed to have chosen Piplup as your starter).

    I checked the read file with the hack but i didnt fine stuff to help me with litleo evolution problem i just u fix it in the next beta

    i found a male litleo and when it reach lvl 13 the screen turn black

    can u plz tell me how to deal with litleo evolution glitch
    I think I know what is causing this, it's not actually the evolution so much as Pyroar's sprite being corrupted. It will be fixed in v3, but in the mean time just avoid getting that gender of Pyroar. Sorry.

    Hi, it's me again coming with another question. Froakie line is implented in 2.5 already or not?
    They appear in the Battle Marsh but are not capturable, no.

    Been playing this for like a week. Excellent hack very well done!
    I did not expected it to be this good to be completely honest XD
    Anyone will HINT me towards where I can find the code to to enter the cave where new elders are with probably Registeel? I can see "340x" right above the door but the x part is incomprehensible.

    Also have you planned how much more stuff will you be adding in the next beta? Will it have the league? Also which megas are confirmed for it?
    I known the deadline is far away but I do believe you may have planned already and hopefully you'll let me know XD
    Glad you've been enjoying it!

    You should try and translate the braille if you want to get through the doors in the Ferre Ruins.

    I have not planned how far v3 goes, it all depends on how much I get done before the end of this year.

    Oh also I suggest adding a guy who informs us about our IVs and the EV resetting berries!
    You can already see your IVs on the summary screen, and there are currently no EV resetting berries anyway so an NPC for them would be a waste at the moment.

    Hi spherical, im new here so i haope im saying this right hehe......anyways i just love your rom hack, awsome story ive seen and amazing effort you out into it. However i have a glitch to report. Im stuck at the Third badge in windmist city in gaia 2.5, in the windmist summit( or the route north), i encounter a kindler there with a braixen and slugma, i talk to the kindler and theres no dialouge, after 10 seconds i battle him, after i beat him in another 10 seconds i gain my prize money, same no dialougue, then. The screen goes black for the rest of the time. No where to bring me back. Is the game unfinished in 2.5? I know you said it ends in precimos island, but just wondering if you notice this, but i still enjoy the hack. Thanks in advance. Btw i am using GBA4ios
    This is not even a bug in the most recent version of Gaia; I recommend you redownload.

    Hi Spherical Ice, I've enjoyed much of Pokémon Gaia. Love the way you pattern it to the 6th gen Pokémon franchise. Now currently waiting for beta 3. Can't wait. Keep it up!



    ~PS updates on some ability and move tutor pls on beta 3. . ^^
    Thanks.

    Hello mr. spherical ice i have found a bug when i mega evolve one pokemon its ability change but do not work.
    When i mega evolve my Charizard it ability changes to DROUGHT but i cant see the intencified sun rays.
    Please read the README before posting, this is a known bug.

    Can anyone help me please !!

    How can i evolve scyther into Scizor in this Hack ?! it says he evolve at lvl 40 and mine now is lvl 42 and still didn't evolve

    How should I do it?
    Looks like the README is wrong, Scyther actually evolves with a Regal Stone in v2.5.

    Can someone tell me where to find the tm for thunderbolt and earthquake please
    Thunderbolt's TM is very sneakily hidden on the island in the middle of Precimos Stretch, behind some trees. Earthquake as a TM is not yet available in v2.5.


    I've updated the storage system's wallpapers for v3. Check them out!

    Thank you for considering a 721 version one day. Even if it's just one of the things I suggested before, I'd appreciate the hell out of it :D

    Also, speaking as someone who spent a lot of time on my current save and caught virtually every available pokemon, I wouldn't care one bit if you introduced a bunch of save-breaking stuff for v3. Especially if there was a chance to increase the box limit and accommodate 721 pokemon one day.

  • Great ROM-hack! I discovered it a few weeks ago and I really love it. Amazing work!

    I wonder if you have any plans to release this in any other language. I would love to help with a German translation (if that is even possible in your state of development).
    While my English is good enough to understand everything, especially the names of the Pokémon and their moves are things that I'm not familiar with. I grew up with the very first generation and therefore the German names are burnt into my brain. And I am pretty sure I am not the only one feeling something similar.
