If you're playing Photonic Sun rebalanced, then the problem is that I forgot to replace the broken Shop.cro file on Google Drive for that version; I've just fixed that now (sorry!). If you're playing a different version I'll need to know which one so I can do some testing.Hey! Decided to try this after finishing Wilting Y. I'm not very far in yet but at the first Pokemon Center the game froze when I talked to the PokeMart employee. Do you know what the problem might be?

No problem, let me know if that doesn't fix the freezing.Yes, that's the one I was playing! Forgot to mention that part. Thank you!

I've just done a fresh install from the copy on Drive to test it, and I can't get the mart to freeze on my console. Have you got the official update installed? I'm not too sure what else could be causing that, seeing as only the shop.cro and maybe the code.bin file should have any effect on the marts. You could try deleting and reinstalling the hack if you haven't already.It seems like the same issue is still occurring. Any idea what else the problem could be?

Turns out that Ekans is a static encounter, so it'll only show up there once. I didn't know where it was used so I didn't edit it.Just a note, the documentation doesn't list Ekans as an encounter from the ambush spots on Route 2 but I found one that way. The other ambush encounters seem to be as should be though.

Yeah, exactly like that. I have no idea why Game Freak likes those events so much recently, they don't seem at all necessary.Oh, that makes sense. I did notice that none of the subsequent encounters in the ambush spots were Ekans. So it's sort of equivalent then to the Grubbin for the first encounter of Route 1?
This is sort of a minor thing but I noticed that the levels of the opponents in the Trainer School seven mysteries arc are unchanged. It's a side thing though so it's understandable if it wasn't one of your main concerns.
First of all the hack looks great, nice work! Thank you!
Is there a convenient way to play it on citra or a guide on how to make a 3ds or CIA file out of the hack?
Thanks!
I think this guide looks like the most convenient way to play mods on citra. I haven't tried it myself so I don't know how up to date it is (or if it even still works), but it seems to bypass the need to unpack and rebuild a cia/ROM file, which is the most tedious part of making a hack cia.
If that doesn't work the general process for making a cia of the hack is as follows:
You may also need to do something with the official update for the game, as the hack won't run on a 3DS without it installed. I don't know how citra handles game updates, but if it doesn't support them the update can be merged into the ROM in the same way as the hack.
- Get a cia/3ds file
- Unpack it using Asia81's 3ds toolkit (use version 9, people have had trouble with the latest release)
- Copy the "a" folder and any cro files from the hack to the romfs folder in the unpacked ROM; overwrite files when prompted
- Similarly, copy the code.bin file to the exefs folder
- Use the toolkit to rebuild the unpacked ROM into a 3DS file for citra
Hope that helps! There should be guides around for most of those steps, but I'll do my best to answer any questions you may have regardless.
With your help (and quite some trial and error) I was able to make it work. Thank you so much for your assistance! So far I am enjoying your romhack a lot!
One thing I have noticed however, the shop stocks do not seem to be changed correctly. According to the documents I should be able to buy the EV items in Hauo'oli city but they are not there. The second clerk only sells the usual x-attack and stuff. Same goes for the route 2 mart which should sell all sorts of pokeballs but actually only sells Super potion, Heal Ball, Nest Ball and Luxury Ball. All the other items he sells are the usual X-items
Are the items sold only bound to shop.cro file? I definitely replaced it
