When trying to open pokeemerald with this editor the following error occurs (which makes it so that nothing inside the window loads): Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1 at me.disturbo.types.Party.extractPartyName(Party.java:17) at...

Hi, sorry for the necroing, but when I open the jar and select the pokeemerald folder in "open directory", nothing happens. Is there something I'm missing?

Are the CFRU devs planning on adding RSE features to FRLG (Pokénav, Secret Bases, Contest) to turn CFRU into the ultimate Gen 3 engine?

For me, TMs would consist of three types of moves: 1-General utility but not broken status moves (Reflect, Rest, Safeguard, Protect, Taunt, Rain Dance...) 2-Attacks around 60 BP with secondary effects (Brine, Charge Beam, Snarl, Mega Drain, Psybeam, Headbutt, Faint Attack, Hidden Power...)...

I would recommend that you play Emerald. The gameplay is quick and snappy, the story is kept to a minimum (focusing instead on exploration), and the world of Hoenn is one of the best designed in the series. Then you could try FireRed/Leafgreen if you want to play the very first game with...

Yes, with some interruptions. At some periods in your life you just prefer to do other things, and then something makes you go back. And even if all new games were to be garbage forever, there's just an infinite wealth of ever-so polished romhacks.

I used to have a specific set of Pokémon for each game (I love Venusaur and Nidoking, for instance), but as of now I try to avoid repetition. On my first playthrough, I try to guess the best mons of that generation, on the second one I try to build the best possible non-legendaries team, then...

When I wrote "original sins", I meant bad design choices that exist SINCE GEN I and were never fixed, not the bad design choices of a particular generation or from one point onwards. (even though I must say, I agree with every single point)

If you've been around Pokémon for a long time, you remember how much it sucked to know that Gen 3 was not compatible with the older games. Now that those three gens have been carved open, is it theoretically possible to update them via romhacking to allow full connectivity (maybe even expanding...

It's a hard contest between Gens 3 and 4, but I think Gen 3 comes on top. You have the great RSE soundtrack (Routes 113, 119 and 120, vs Maxie/Archie, Elite Four theme, Frontier Brain theme, and the beautiful ending theme) plus some great FRLG tunes (Gym Leader theme, Champion theme, Route...

What are design choices present in every game that could, in your opinion, be improved upon? For example: In my experience trying to get other people into Pokémon, newcomers have a hard time remembering type matchups. I think 15-18 types is just too much; I think having 6 or 7 types, with some...

Pokémon was possibly the idea with the greatest potential in video game history. Collectible monsters that you can grow, evolve, breed, trade, and fight with? And there's hundreds of them? The world could've been their oyster, had they managed Pokémania wisely. It's just Game Freak's...

Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. In order of importance: 1-Add breeding mechanics. They offer so many customization possibilities, they were sorely missed. 2-Less Shadow Pokémon (so they feel more special), more Wild Pokémon (maybe even found outside of the Poké Spots?) 3-More reasons to revisit...

I'm in as well. Gen III games are my favorite, have all of them, and I'm up for trades! My discord is PKZB#4126.
