HMs are unchanged in HeartGold VX. I hope this is okay!

I played up to Violet City with the same setup to test your problem and had one softlock with the dialogue before the catching tutorial, which didn't happen again after reloading my save. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with these issues, so you will have to experiment yourself if loading your save...

Thanks for the appreciation :) Almost all Pokemon up to Gen 4 are included in the main games of Platinum or HeartGold VX, but there are some Pokemon still not present in either; Flygon comes to mind, the obvious starters and fossils, probably some others. If you are asking with postgame Pokedex...

I find many hacks go too far in making fanservicey changes like type changes, stat changes, level curve inflation, and adding Pokemon from future generations, which remind you too often that you are playing a fan creation rather than the real thing. I design my hacks as close as I can to be what...

Most Pokemon hacks have a very different feel to them than the original games they are based on, due to either drastic mechanical overhauls or flashy new content. This makes it difficult for players who prefer the original feel of the games to get more out of them. Pokemon HeartGold VX was made...

Last year I made Pokemon FireRed VX. Well, now it's time for Platinum! Ahem- Pokemon Platinum VX is a hack that adds more playable Pokemon to the game with a gentler approach than your average hack. The difference is that nothing is added that really does not need to be added; no new moves, no...

Hey folks, I noticed a small bug while testing my Platinum hack. Whenever I edit an area that has east Shellos (blue) in it, it swaps to west (pink) and I don't know what to do about it. My two encounter editors, PPRE and SDSME, have no way around this. What can I do to fix the bug? Update...

Hey folks, I am working on the logistics of making a Platinum hack and I'm wondering if it's possible to unlock certain things early. These are: -Underground: unlock postgame fossils, evolution stones, and treasures in general -Great Marsh: unlock daily changing Pokemon that show up in the...

No, I'm afraid that was never my goal. The main reason I wouldn't do that is that the areas in FireRed VX as it is are already as crowded as they can get before everything has to have a tiny encounter rate. In fact, I had to cut a few of the more redundant Pokemon to bring up encounter rates for...

Generic trainers throughout the game use new Pokemon too. Aside from just a few Pokemon, they will all be in your Pokedex as "seen" by the end if you fight every trainer. No generic trainers are listed in the database though. Not every Pokemon in Gen 3 data can be found in FireRed VX. The total...

All bugs found in testing were fixed and none have been reported so far. Additionally, based on the nature of the hack I don't imagine anything significant could be discovered.

It does not remove badge boosts

Pokemon FireRed VX is the result of seeing so many FireRed enhancement hacks which change so much that, at best you might as well not be playing Gen 3 anymore, and at worst you may as well not be playing FireRed anymore. You can still play old gens on Showdown because they have a unique value to...

UPDATE After not getting any responses all day I dug deeper for a solution and found one which I'm happy to say works remarkably well! I found the solution here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonROMhacks/comments/8twv6y/how_do_i_get_the_national_dex_early_in_leaf_green/ To summarize, you run...
