So, uh hi.
I've watched a few streams and I've seen Hardcore Nuzlockers in Hard Mode get a Care Package from Oaks Aid early on (in addition to skipping the catching tutorial, the kid in Viridian asking weird questions etc.).
Why isn't this happening for me? Do I have the wrong version or what am I missing?

Finally beat Pokemon League on default minimal grinding mode after failing with several different teams. Ended up tryharding a bit with this team after trying out with weaker teams I used throughout the game.
https://i.imgur.com/HBSPFrO.png


Charizard-Mega-Y @ Charizardite Y
Charizard-Mega-Y has huge upfront special power attacks and very good coverage. Lorelei's rain team was destroyed by Charizard-Mega-Y (except for Primal Kyogre).
Ability: Drought
Timid Nature
- Solar Beam
- Focus Blast
- Flamethrower
- Roost

Chandelure @ Choice Specs
Chandelure can trap enemies and force them out via U-Turn and hit the switch-in stupidly hard with Choice Spec'ed Flamethrowers. Ghost typing is very useful for switching into Close Combat's which are numerous in the Pokemon League.
Ability: Shadow Tag
Modest Nature
- Flamethrower
- Will-O-Wisp
- Shadow Ball
- Calm Mind

Chansey @ Eviolite
Chansey is an unbreakable special wall used for tanking and setting up Stealth Rock and Toxic. Seismic Toss is used for additional chipping damage. Natural Cure is mandatory if Chansey is hit by Toxic.
Ability: Natural Cure
Bold Nature
- Toxic
- Stealth Rock
- Seismic Toss
- Soft-Boiled

Dragonite @ Leftovers
Dragonite was used as the only setup sweeper in the team. Dragon Dance + Multiscale is a deadly and beefy combo.
Ability: Multiscale
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Outrage
- Dual Wingbeat
- Earthquake

Wailord @ Leftovers
Wailord is the MVP of the team and has been on every iteration of the team. It is one tanky motherpsyducker able to deal with many different threats. It tanks special attacks for days with Amnesia, and physical attacks are tanked with help from Multiscale. As an example, Zacian-C at +3 attack Close Combat only damages down to 1/2 HP if at full health. Bouncy Bubble and Leftovers let's you abuse Multiscale. Get one of these if you are struggling on anything.
Ability: Multiscale
Calm Nature
- Water Spout
- BouncyBubble
- Ice Beam
- Amnesia

Skarmory @ Rocky Helmet
Skarmory sets up Spikes and tanks physical hits using Sturdy, Rocky Helmet and Roost.
Ability: Sturdy
Impish Nature
- Whirlwind
- Body Press
- Roost
- Spikes

Honorable mentions:
Primeape with Gorilla Tactics and Choice Band/Scarf.
Ampharos/Mega Ampharos.
Mega Venusaur.
Shiftry with better stats than vanilla.
Special attack Blaziken with Speed Boost.
Gastrodon.
Mamoswine with Thick Fat.

Hardest fights:
Misty
Sabrina
Morty
Team Rocket Gauntlet (fuck killing 8 enemies without healing)
Giovanni at Cerulean Cave (Scrafty is nasty. Mewtwo-Y forced me to bring a Mega Sableye)
Champion at Pokemon League (fuck Yveltal with new Dark Hole)
Lance at Pokemon League (fuck Primal Dialga)

Also, for the next update, can you add a option to lock the randomness in the randomizer? Wild encounters change everyday but also movepools and abilities.
Because of that, i lost Tough Claw on my Archeops.
Not only that, but this may also mean that we can abuse the move relearner or the egg move specialist to make pokemons with perfect broken moveset like the illegal ones in the Elite 4 and Champion team of Hard mode.
I would like a new option for the randomizer that, when activated, will disable the daily shuzzle of the encounters, abilities and movepool.

synergytheomega July 9th, 2021 11:59 PM

Quick question am i the only one who found the doc to be incomplete i mean there is trainer doc for regular radical red and in the hardcore mode trainer doc there is no diglet cave brendan team, or am i just blind

danny2001dg July 10th, 2021 8:26 AM

in the hardcore mode i can obtain the charizardite x?

Nathan_Love July 12th, 2021 12:34 PM

I have a suggestion that maybe you add 5 more boxes to the pc so that making a living dex is possible

I think if that were already possible, Soup would've done that. It requires more space within the rom to make so many boxes available. You can still have every fully evolved Pokemon with all forms in the box currently.

If i remember correctly, you have to show a Charizard to the guy between Celadon City and the road where you need the bike. He can also gave you the Mega Gem for all gen 1 and 3 Starters if you do the same with them and if you show them all, he'll give you the Mega Gem for Lucario

My game (using latest 2.3a version) softlocks every time I complete the Elite Four nowadays for some reason. I have completed them 20 times before without any problems, but now all of the sudden, the game softlocks on the Hall of Fame screen and I cannot do anything about it. The music is playing in the background and that is about it.

The screen just looks like this:
https://previews.dropbox.com/p/thumb/ABNbJuCkSUTj7BHWrwqLqsaBx7qzXQX3WAJa7C6OFB3zdVmxEJdLYn8eaABUhLbkRddWlffdJyDy7F-KV2KCcpZFpaXa0VYVtu3kkcIyfFeaKJKko2mVBzKjPIEfO2wgJ0SY8xUu13gX7k7Y8fbAVEZTsJJCeQh7m7LvhJEp-3isyZ5RW7BLCRyNSLWa_6QP1josqdjAdhsivgmM-TLGWuZynZguceIQY0b7MUikGTQaiwQ0YWUV1nYpANINtSLOk8eMrAqdpR8tcaiGAfOMApMKDRxLBi2-MzAQNUUEICO5S-CLOHmFg60JEG7mj9t-Eqmev8Kz4GW1rjCMGSnlnPCJSqqsfNZ88OSGfqOdZxEJ1g/p.png?fv_content=true&size_mode=5

Has anyone else experienced this before? Any ideas on what might cause it and how to prevent it from happening?

The image you attached doesn't load, and visiting the direct link takes me to an invalid dropbox URL.

What, if anything, did you do different? Did you save in the E4?

Strange, as it says that anyone with the link should be able to see it.
It is basically just this standard Hall of Fame screen without any pokemon or text, just the background:
https://i.imgur.com/9tGYQCh.png

I did not do anything different to what I normally do, which is why I am so confused. I always save the game before I face them and then just go from there. Everything works fine until the Hall of Fame screen appears and you are supposed to see the pokemon that you completed the league with, which in this case does not happen. Instead of the pokemon appearing, the game softlocks as soon as the Hall of Fame screen appears and you cannot press anything or do anything at that point, apart from resetting the game.

MPardavedo July 14th, 2021 8:21 AM

Guys, question here, I'm trying to nuzlocke the harcore mode, but I can't find any patch of grass at viridian or pewter city, do I have the wrong version of the game? I've got the 2.3a, I can enter to digglet's cave before brock. Or how am I supose to catch on those cities?

I've played 2.3a a couple of weeks ago and the extra grass patches were there.

That's definitely odd. Maybe head on over to the discord and report it. Ask if you should upload your save file and maybe a save state so they can try to reproduce the issue.

This probably isn't the case, but check all your PC boxes for Bad Eggs. If one does happen to be inside, it's likely the cause. I've never come across one on any CFRU based rom hacks. No cheats used, correct?

Hey i had a bug i was playing on my phone and then i started getting only 1exp my version is 2.3a

Hmm, good idea. How can I tell if an egg is bad though?
Never used cheats, so that cannot be a factor in this case.

It will say "Bad EGG" on an actual looking egg. It's like a virus in the game. If you do have any, you'd be recommend to restart. But you've never used cheats so I doubt that's the issue.

You've hit the level cap. It will go higher again once you defeat the next boss trainer or gym leader.

I only had one egg in my PC and it wasn't a bad one so it must be related to something else.

When I looked in the "bug-reports" channel on discord, I saw that someone else had reported the exact same problem already. So apparently I'm not the only one having this issue.

BugCatcherMafia July 15th, 2021 3:29 PM

Really liking this game. Very challenging. One issue I ran into was that torkoal's hidden ability is not drought like everything else in the game indicates. Its disappointing because he was going to be the centerpiece of my sun team.

Varrocker93 July 16th, 2021 2:22 AM

My charmander just hit lv16 and evolved before Brock. The furthest i've gone into the game was Viridian Forest. Playing on Hardcore, though I don't remember getting a prompt to enable Restricted Mode. Is this automatically turned on in Hardcore Mode or do I have to set it somewhere? Awesome Mod so far, as a fairly casual Player these trainer battles are challenging already.

EDIT: It stopped gaining EXP at lv16, seems to be working fine after all.

Restricted mode is to prevent trivializing default RR difficulty with cheese setups. Hardcore is basically an hilarious "Anything goes" mode so, I didn't try it (and probably never will :)) but I guess there isn't much point in restricting anything from the player in that mode, I mean, unless it is actually activated by default.

HeavenlyArmed July 16th, 2021 8:59 AM

Restricted mode is in fact built into (and made slightly more restrictive in) Hardcore mode. No way to turn it off, it's always active as an added factor for making this version of the game obscenely difficult.

I cant play double figths with my friend :(((
