I found a way to enable the RTC feature in retroarch vba_next library (you will need to compile the library)
you need to change the second 0 on this line to a 1:
https://github.com/libretro/vba-next/blob/master/libretro/libretro.cpp#L311
before:
{"Pokemon - Fire Red Version (USA, Europe)"...
this bug only affect certain emulators
VBA_next is not affected while mgba is, at least for the retroarch libraries
you can change out of the outfit and get through it in the default outfit, the only thing you can't do it battle the police without switching emulators
I think i found a bug (feature?)
the Shiny Ditto you can catch in the Celedon rocket base is not a normal type, guessing it is a glitch type? typeless?
i think that is a feature, but the thing is i was able to teach it HM1 Cut now i think that is a bug
so aside from mgba which cores support the RTC feature?
i switched to mgba cause it had the RTC patch, meaning it supports RTC
The crash bugs do not happen with my old copy of the retroarch vba_next lib build (i really need to update that)
I thought i had them all
1) Get a Clean Pokémon Fire Red v1.0 (USA) ROM
2) Apply "Beta 13 ALL PATCH.ups" over it.
3) Apply "FIX FIX FIX.ups" over the patched ROM.
4) Apply "WTF More Glitch.ups" over the patched ROM.
5) Apply "adventure-red-rtc.ups" over the patched ROM.
MD5 sum of final gba file...
key item pika drawing, scrolling onto this item freezes the game
fishing/grass wild encounter with rocket uniform causes crash
* same for trainer encounter even in the rocket base... that has to be a known bug...
found a tile that can not be stepped on for any good reason
I Found a couple bugs
The flame charge TM has the description of secret power
You can re-enter the water below the SS Anne after the evolution chapter, the only way out is to faint all your pkm
possible bug (maybe feature?)
it is possible to cancel to the evolution of poly whirl during the bonus chapter
what happens if polywhirl is not in your party?
using beta 13 with retroarch and vba_next
So about the battle AI's tactics
I was able to sweep Misty with a lv 13 Clefairy
Calm mind, defense curl, encore, thunderbolt
she let me setup 6 calm mind and 4 defense curl
she only used swift once and spammed minimize and camouflage
i did not even use...
