I think Haunter is one in-game trade so no, it's not possible to evolve it by other meanings.

Slasher X June 4th, 2012 6:46 AM

It worked like a charm, thanks alot ash493! Also, ptshady, if you want you could edit the evolutions in the game?

ptshady June 4th, 2012 10:34 AM

ok thanks ash493

I love this game, amazing graphics, and really fun to play with. So far I got no problems with this hack for myself. I feel like you should have won the hack of the year award, and got 1st place instead of second place!!!

My friend... if you had played the Life of Guardians you would have known that unfortunately LP had no chance to win ;)
But it may win the next year ;)

I have no idea what the problem is so can you explain it again preferably with screenshots?

My PokeMarts don't sell pokeballs... Only ultra balls.. Help

Edit: Also, I messed up the event with the guy who's meant to give you the Dratini and I accidentally said no, am I able to re-activate the event?

Ultra Balls are meant to be sold instead of other balls.

No, you cannot. Once you say no, you can't re-activate it again.

Be careful with those guys who give you free pokes because there ard also other NPC who will not ask you again like that Dratini NPC.

nasversix June 6th, 2012 8:37 AM

Well the SS looks promising.Might as well try it.

boopin June 8th, 2012 9:04 PM

Um, this game isn't working. I tried multiple things too, like a straight GBA file from some website.
When I mount the IPS file to Ruby, then turn on the VBA, all I get is a white screen.
So, I thought I just had to change the save type to 128, and that didn't even work.

I really want to play this game, is there any way I can get this game to work? Did I download the wrong beta? =(

jradams11 June 9th, 2012 11:16 AM

Deino Help
 
Hello Pokecommunity!

I seems I unwittingly missed my chance at a Dieno in Pokemon Light Platinum. Does anyone know how I might go about using some sort of gameshark code to make up for this mistake, or am I basically up a creek?

Thanks

Slasher X June 10th, 2012 4:56 AM

boopin, I think you have got a version 1.1 rom, to fix this,
First download a clean Pokemon Ruby, Second Download Lunar IPS patcher. Third download Pokemon Light Platinum ips file. Fourth patch the original ruby file with the
ips file. That should be it!

Clear the flag that has been set.

dragonzftw June 11th, 2012 1:12 PM

Okay I have like a ton of questions, firstly when I run Pokemon light platinum do I insert the ruby rom into the vba? or light platinum?
Than if I insert the Ruby rom into the VBA how do I get it not to have a white screen?
Third How do I get the whole game in English, because I have used an English IPS patcher and it made like some of the game English while the rest was in Spanish.
Also could someone put like a screen shot of what their folder of Pokemon light platinum looks like (if possible)
Last but probably one of the questions I really want to know is when your pokemon learn new moves is it based off the third generations levels or the fifth generation? (kind of confusing but if I am asked ill try and simplify)

ADLFM14 June 11th, 2012 1:37 PM

hey wesley did you make the map tiles like trees buildings and others by your own or you brought them from another game and by the way this the most epic hack I've ever played keep up the good work and wish me good luck on my hack and thnx :D

I'm not gonna answer anything regarding white screen if you are lazy to search in this thread =)
Movesets are pretty much random, they mostly follow 3rd gen, though.

Everything has been made by Wes himself ;)

N.P June 13th, 2012 10:35 AM

A bug from this hack that make me quite angry is the bug at Mt.Draken after Lauren league, it makes me can't enter Mt.Draken so I can't capture Trio Bird (although I met all other legends). What a terrible thing. =="

timebroken June 13th, 2012 1:50 PM

Edit: I've tried twice now, and I can't get the hack working. It just gives me a grey screen. I've patched a few other ROMS, and they've worked perfectly, so I can assume that the patching isn't the problem. I'm guessing the English version either has a bug, or that the Ruby ROM I'm using isn't up-to-par. I've only patched FireRed ROMs, so my Ruby ROM could very well be the problem. I see that some other people have has this problem, but I haven't found a fix to it yet. Thanks for any help. :)

**********

I'm looking forward to playing this hack. It looks really nice. Thanks for all the effort you put into this. I feel like I'm really going to enjoy it. :)

Thats not nice hope it can be fix but if it cant be its still ok...after all its 1 of the best hacks :D

rockerzz182 June 14th, 2012 10:57 PM

One thing that i dont like in this hack is that the trainers had to many pokemons it makes me tired battling over and over again with the same pokemons..

did snakebyte edited the number of pokemons of trainer while translating it??

But still one of my favorite hack..=D..i hope they fix all the bugs..

Of course not.
Snake simply translated the game, he didn't do anything beside some bug fixing.

Seeing how I searched the thread (though I might've missed something, so please excuse me if I did), you can't get anything from Mt. Draken, yes? (sad, I wanted a Salamence...)

Exactly which dragons can be obtained then?

Yeah, the behaviour of the "ground" makes Pokémon not appear on Mt. Draken.

Question:

When I play this Hack, I get ridiculous amounts of exp after I battle pokemon, whether its trainer or wild. I mean, after I got my Charmander, heading north and arriving at Central City had me already at level 14 and I wasn't even grinding for exp. Is this normal?

Yes, it is. It will be pretty much compensated when you start battling Metagrosses =D

Venipedes also give big lots of exp compared to their evolved forms too.

Metagross: I don't always battle with you, but when I do, I make sure to give you as little EXP as I can.

I Was Playing The Game And Found Berry Trees And Im Wondering How Can YOu Get The Berries From It ?
Btw: I Love The Game ^_^

Mr. Black June 20th, 2012 11:01 AM

also that berry system is not the best. i would prefer the standard ruby berry picking rather than that.Mostly because you must have a pokémon with the move thief,then if you're lucky you will obtain some super-extra-rare berry ( liechi,durin ,watmel) or if you're unlucky you will get the " seems that this tree has no berries "
:O .fortunately there is the berry shop on merydian city.

xInZaxx June 20th, 2012 8:35 PM

This may be a really dumb question...but does this rom follow with the new battling style, i.e Special Moves and Physical Moves being split apart from their element. (Leaf Blade doing Physical rather than Special)

Just wondering. :)

Alright so basically me and a friend were playing through the hack and everything was going swell until we paid for a boat ride from the guy with the sideways boat at esmeralde for §800 and then we realised we couldn't get back. So now we're both stuck at the lava lake without the 2nd badge but we have 1/3/4 and it won't let us lava surf as we don't have the appropriate badge. Any help?

Hi, so i´ve playing LP for a while but im stuck because of a glitch.
Ive already beated the 8gym so i went to the rute 416 up in the waterfall and there is a girl blocking the cave(wich i think is like the victory road) and saying that his friend lunick is waiting at his house to battle me or something like that, when i arrived to the house i entered and lunik wasnt there so i closed the emulator, then i went to the rute 416 talked to the girl again and when i arrived to the house the girl who was blocking the way was blocking the house door too so i battle her(wich i had already done before in the game) and entered the house and lunik wasnt there so i have done all the process over and over again but lunik is never there :( and the girl is always blocking the cave and sometimes shes also infront of the door and battles me
So what can i do?:/
Thanks.

overall it's a good hack
nice graphics, great story line, and tons of features :)

only two things I dislike...

1.way too many rivals
this is so fkn funny that i cant even remember their names...

2.the dungeons
it's hard to say it but i think the dungeons is too...monotonic?
all the dungeons are like
go straight up, with some trainers, exit

even those final dungeons are like this...what a pity

1. which means you gotta have your gengar recall it via giving heart scale to a certain NPC
not sure if heart scales/that NPC is in this game...at least it is in ruby

2. dont know...

3.you can never get it, cuz its data is replaced by other pokemon

Any idea of how to fix the white screen bug on Mac version of VBA. Your video shows to change the save type to 128k, but this seems to be impossible to do on the Mac version.

Hey guys is there really any way to get froslass in the game? Its funny cuz the ice gym leader uses one but I cant get one? I've searched the hundred pages of this forum and saw that I can only get frosslass by trading? Does that mean its an in-game trade like scizor and gengar (its not on the in-game trade list on wesleys page though)?

Thanks for this awesome hack :)

My Annoyed Review
 
This is a very harsh review, Do not read if you absolutely LOVE this hack.

Now First of all let me list the good things about this hack:
-It looks good!
-
-
-

Yeah... thats about it. This hack is by far one of the most annoying pokemon hacks I have ever played and I personally don't understand why it is rated so highly. I have been doing a blind LP (Currently recorded up to finding snorlax and shinx from the zoo) and I have to say most of my commentary has been utter disgust for this hack. I had high hopes for this one. Its been called one of the greatest hacks ever and everyone loves it. One person commented on my first episode telling me it was well worth it. They were wrong. This hack gives you great items at the start, and the pokemarts sell expensive items right off the bat when you can't afford it.

Nearly everyone in this hack is too nice, There is no way every single person can be content after losing. At least in the regular pokemon games there are folks who are angry, in fact some of them vow to defeat you -and they aren't all darn annoying rivals might I add-

The text gets old and fast, not only was it way to lengthy with the back story which wasn't that interesting for arceus, many npcs repeat the same ******* things another said. Everyone in towns all act the same there is no difference between npcs besides different text. Like I said the only thing I enjoyed was the graphics.

The amount of rivals makes me want to rip the small strands of my hair off of my head. When I say they are the most useless rivals I mean it. They are all too happy go lucky, drop down to having 2 pokemon when they started off using 3+ which makes no sense. And majority of them do nothing but show up after an area to battle. Worst part about it is you fight them a million times! In regular pokemon games (excluding R/B/Y to an extent) The rival usually has a reason to be there. In G/S/C you meet him by TR because he is trying to defeat them as well, even in Red and blue he helps you out and manages to learn from his losses.

Team steam, oh god these guys. These are the worst villainous team ever to be made into a hack. They are simple there. A typical "We are evil because we want to be" team that need sot be stopped at all cost. "we want to rule the world blah blah blah". Even worse than that they pretty much copied some of cyrus from team galatic's goals as well. I honestly cannot understand the ratings of this hack.

Now here is another thing that annoyed me, omg I just met you, and this is crazy, here's a Dratini, take it maybe? The Pokemon are giving to you on a silver platter, I literally received all my team members from NPCs or randomly lying on a table somewhere. There was no challenge in capturing them. At least make us work for our dang pokemon teams!

Oh another thing, I'm so strong, I use 2 pokemon and manage to beat the world champion and the 8th gym leader yet I get owned by a kid whose pokemon are more than 30 levels below the world champions. BS straight up BS.

The entire reason I have so much pent up anger towards this hack is because of how it was executed. The graphics were clearly the centre of attention and not the actually storyline. Yes you're good with graphics and scripting but beyond that you need to stop thinking conventionally. There were a few more things I wanted to address but I currently can't remember them all. (I'm sure once i start recording tomorrow i'll--)

Oh yes, the thing that annoys me the most. TMs being used as HM moves to advance through the game. IF YOU HAVEN'T REALISED YET! Everyone dislikes being forced to carry certain moves around. Now Ice smash(brick break) not a bad move, but forcing me to learn focus punch and a few other moves just annoys me. My movesets are so screwed up right now because of lauren. Check G/S/C, all the moves used in johto were all you needed in kanto, not an entirely new set of moves especially since both regions are right next to each other. There wouldn't be any freaking big distinct change between them!

The hack hands everything over to you, its storyline is too typical, Its all about the graphics, has a typical bad team with the same typical plans.

I don't want anyone to hate on me for this but I seriously expected better from a hack that has been given praise for its "epic storyline". I have to say both Fuligin and Snakewood far exceed this one in my opinion.
I'm hoping that this LP ends at part 70 I honestly and barely holding on to my sanity while LPing this and I don't want to quit this its just urgh.

Anyway that is my review, if you are angry at my review it is simply put MY OPINION. We are all entitled to one may I remind you.

Okay, so I've gotten 3 different Ruby roms from 3 different places, and none of them work with the ips provided. All I'm getting is a white screen. Any idea what's going on?

1) Have you watched Wesley's video?
2) Have you read previous posts and downloaded Ruby v1.0?

@uran: Interesting review but it does seem to be highly subjective ;) The things you mentioned as bad are the good points for most players so you can't wonder that LP gets comments with "epic storyline" in their contents ;)

Is there a shaymin event in the final version of pokemon LP or do u catch shaymin in the forest because I saw a guy playing an old version which has shaymin event I mean the flower garden.

Okay, that worked. Thanks.

On another note, I know that this has probably been asked before, but I have the latest version of LP, yet I can't find any way to heal my pokemon in Yellow town. This especially becomes a problem as the first trainer's venipede wrecks havoc on my Charmander with its rollout attack...

So... is there any way to heal, or am I going to have to Gameshark a few Super potions in?

Care to elaborate? Maybe its because its rated higher than snakewood and LOG and because I played both of those games before this one and expected it to be out there. It started on a strong note, stood there for a bit then fell down to the ground hard IMO. Maybe I set my expectations to high but to be honest I think its either team steam or the happy go lucky attitude of this hack that makes me really angry, and the ton of rivals too...

To me, this hack had potential but it wasn't executed correctly.

Yeah, I know. But that still won't stop that venipede from owning my Charmander with its Defense Curl and Rollout combo. And without being able to train in the grass (having no consistent way to heal) I can't raise my Charmander any higher to beat it. Seriously, why doesn't the first town have a healing script?

And for that matter, why does the first trainer in the game have a pokemon with the Defense Curl/ Rollout combo? That's a serious threat in the early game and it can take out an entire team, especially if that team consists only of a lvl 5 Charmander and a Lvl 3 Poochyena.

I've also seen tile glitches, the animations in the beginning with the legendary pokemon seemed drawn out and delayed, and the professor doesn't give you the pokeballs automatically. You have to talk to her again. If I had just walked out, I never would have got them.

Visual-wise, the game looks very good, one of the best I've ever seen. However, it's got some issues early on that are seriously hindering my gameplay experience. It clearly needs more work...

EDIT: And why the heck do you need Thief in order to pick berries? What was wrong with just picking them? You're telling me that I have to have thief if I want any berries AT ALL?

Yeah you must have thief in one pokemon....I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS WAS IMPLEMENTED BUT IT ALSO GIVES YOU USELESS BERRIES SUCH AS DURIN OR SUPER-EXTRA-RARE SALAC BERRY OR WATMEL....LUCKILY THERE IS A BERRY SHOP IN THE SECOND'S REGION MERYDIAN CITY....

How i can find Gible in this hack ??

SenorBlu July 2nd, 2012 9:08 PM

Well I defeated the Serenity gym leader, but when I tried to leave, the electricity was still up behind me and I can't find a way out. I don't have another save file previous to being trapped so am I pretty much screwed?

Gible is in kinda bugged Mt. Draken but you cannot find it there for the behavior of tiles makes encounters with wild Pokémon impossible.

As far as i know the only way to have scizor ( that i know ) is a trade in inhore city with a bug catcher who asks you to trade a scyther ( that holds metal claw ) for a spinarak...hope this helped

XeroNos July 3rd, 2012 9:11 PM

Hello there LP folks n fans!
 
I am back in pokecommunity after a very busy 1 month due to my exams. Now i started to work on my grand project here. I am pleased to remind you that I have started working on a mega walkthrough of Light Platinum and currently am at Seanport city. This walkthrough will be completed as soon as possible and I will update you guys regularly where I currently reach. So have a nice day from me. Regards Alienhuntex

LCCoolJ95 July 5th, 2012 5:29 PM

Hey Wesley FG, do you mind if I edit the game by adding in cries to the added Pokemon. I already did a few. Tomorrow, I may even upload a preview video of it. I just wanted to add more legitimacy to the game.

slimoleq July 6th, 2012 3:18 PM

Hey... Have got a problem... after finishing Lauren League i fly to DRAGONBREAT CITY to find Lance in Mt. Draken, but he isnt there :(... Same with Ash in Yellow Town...

It's random encounter if I remember... Leafeon is implemented as alone Pokémon, not evolution of Eevee.

XeroNos July 7th, 2012 1:12 AM

Sorry guys my bad the walkthrough took a break due to me adding screen shots into it as well as some stuff to include.. Hopefully in a month it will be completed.. It looks like Wesley has finally done the solution about the white screens so I should rest noe giving away the ROM.

Hey Wes? Anything on your New project?

TillWhen July 7th, 2012 4:24 AM
