I can say this is the best hack I've ever played, I would play it over any official game, with the exception maybe of Emerald. I had a team of level 80's by the time I finished, there is always something to do before you get your badge, so you feel like you have to work for your badge (other than the gym battle).
also had a great selection of Pokemon, finished my game with a Blastoise, Raichu, Snorlax, Ninetales, Heracross and Flygon. Deserves hack of the year with every fiber of its being.

Tried doing a nuzlocke of this game! Hardest thing ever! LOL

Got a pretty decent starter team (Charmeleon, skorupi, elekid, vullababy and milotic) but I'm looking for the best grass type in the game.
Last time I used sceptile, but didn't really enjoy it, low defense but great speed tough.
Another problem with it is the moveset, learns leafblade at lv 40 something I think and that's a major problem for me.
So anybody has a sugestion what to use? love to ge a respond soon.
(Sorry for grammatical errors and spelling errors, English isn't my native language)

Edit: By the way, if you have any tips on what I need to change to my team please say so, also got a snorlax as my tank added and I know people are going to say change your skorupi but I wan't to get a drapion b/c it's only weakness is ground.

Grass types are generally useless so... if you are not satisfied with starter, you probably won't find any other good grass type.

Lucra August 15th, 2013 9:37 AM

Decided to leave grass-types alone, really wan't a kingdra but have no clue were to catch a carvanha.
Have checked my pokedex where to catch one, and went to diffrent spots.
Used both the Super and good rod and still haven't even encountered one..
Any tips?

Edit: Nevermind, caught a carvanha and got myself a kingdra.
My team so far: Vullaby, drapion, charizard, kingdra, milotic and electevire.
Okay team? only thing I need is a strong fighting type move against dark pokemon, because I believe I have a counter to evrything at the moment except dark.
Also, because my drapion is a dark pokemon, I'd like a flygon to counter elektrics, going to change it with vullaby.

RukiaChambers August 15th, 2013 3:19 PM

So, I got the real final release of the hack...Lets see if it works this time

[edit] Nope, actually goes black screen earlier than before, right after beating Diamond for the first time

Turtwig is a decent Grass type starter providing a secondary type at it's final evolution.

In this case Lucario fits well, giving you a powerful hitter

Get rid of Milotic as you have Kingdra and get yourself a Lucario.
And obviously get rid of Vullaby for Flygon.

i could raise a rufflet (trying to trade), but something got me curious. When I looked up Braviary, it's locations were in towns. is there a way to catch braviary, cause leveling up rufflet is a pain when the only source of exp is the two elite four. also, is it possible to complete the pokedex without cheating.

RukiaChambers August 17th, 2013 1:54 PM

Does anyone play this on their PSP?

I use gpsp kai, and it seems to not work properly with Light Plat..

Am I going to have to go through Mt. Icestorm again to make her appear at the gym?

Edit: nvm, figured it out. It's funny that I said out loud " Is she trollin me right now?" before I found her giving me her troll laugh lol Very clever to put that in the game

I'm playing through Light Platinum for the first time, and I'm having the problem that is referenced above. I did exactly the same thing that Senju did, except that I wasn't able to find Sophia after I got back to Snowce.

experiusmag August 17th, 2013 8:48 PM

When I get to the lauren league I defeat the first gym and go to mt lauren there is a girl i verse that when she sends out her first pokemon the game freezes and starts changing screen colours and then crashes any help? if it has happened before or am i alone?

You are supposed to find her 2 times.
First at the start of the cave and then at the end of the cave.

I wonder if someone officially took over this hack to fix the bugs? Because I could post some. Like this one:
h,ttp://s14.postimg.org/zdij596lt/dghry_87.png
(without comma, sorry I can't post pictures because I still don't have 15 posts yet)
This one is Inhore City Pokemon Center.
Pokemon/Item Storage computers multiply if you try to activate them from right side of the table. I don't know if that happens in other pokemon centers too.
Edit: Also a Venipede, uhhh, gives way too much experience than it should have been (to my conversation) when you defeat them. I'm not sure if it's considered a bug. A level 18 Venipede gives more experience than a level 28 Tentacool. Speaking of Tentacools...

While at it, I wanted to make some criticisms as well. I actually find it funny how player could get their hands on Ultra Balls and a Good Rod so early in game :d That must be original maker's own style, most probably he was sick of not being able to use the higher tier items at the beginning of the game. But encountering level 28 tentacools so early in game is so unbalanced inmho. He knocked my 2 electric pokemon out before going down, lmao. Just telling my own opinions though.
Also about, locked House in Inhore City. What's about it? When will it unlock? What is inside?

Edit 2: There's a young trainer on the east side of the Nyan point. He's just the first trainer to battle after you've crossed the bridge through west. He has a typo.

All I can suggest is a walk through walls code to work your way back to the front. I do agree there could be a switch in the back that activates all doors, and that would be a nice idea.

Orifiel August 19th, 2013 9:25 PM

Woah! This hack is soooo amazing!

Dunno about the multiplying PCs but the Venipede is an easter egg that is made to remind the original Portuguese version.

KuroRyu August 20th, 2013 2:58 AM

Hey I just wanted to ask you guys if it's possible to obtain a Charmander other than your starter? Because I don't have a flying type and I feel like the only pokemon I can replace is my Ninetales because it's weak, but I don't wanna be without a fire type either, so I thought about getting a charizard, but I picked Squirtle, so can you tell me if it's possible to obtain another Charmander ingame?

I don't think you can get another Kanto starter... you can get starters from other regions, though.
You can try Arcanine as your fire type.

Nope I wanted a dual fire/flying so I'm out of luck. charizard was the only option and I refuse to use Moltres and Ho-oh. I'll just catch some randim flying type to use Fly when I need to. thx

Erenussocrates August 20th, 2013 12:35 PM

Did someone take over the project???

Pokenoob666 August 20th, 2013 12:46 PM

I've had this problem with other Pokémon myself.

Jerrys123111 August 20th, 2013 7:41 PM

Just wondering, does anyone know who has officially taken over the bug fixing for Light Platinum? Snakebyte's signature says that Ash493 is, but I just wanted to confirm this. Also, for those of you interested, there is a SURFING COMPETITION in Light Platinum that couldn't be accessed because it seemed to be broken. Well, I went in and I have, for the most part, fixed the game, so whoever is making the next release should re-implement it. All it took was adding "release" to each of the script. Now someone just needs to translate what it says and fix it so that the player doesn't win every match. I also started to revitalize the Battle Frontier, but the script for the boat is broken and so is the script for battling the trainers, by only a little bit. I also added a house which leads to the guy who trades shards for evolution stones, which I'm probably going to change to sell other stuff that is rarer than just stones. Anyways, here is the link for the stuff I made(the 2 map files for the battle frontier + photos of it) :

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3xdw78ktbkjllol/BVx_l9pJVJ

Make sure to replace "(dot)" with a period.
Also, the script for the Surf Competition :
'---------------
#org 0xA018AA
setvar 0x4050 0x2
release
end

That's all I have for now! Sorry if this post is kinda long.

Pokenoob666 August 20th, 2013 8:31 PM

well, i caught all the legends and beat the world championship. This was far from the perfect game, but It was fun. On to the next game!
