FireRed hack: Pokémon Vega (and Altair/Sirius) - English Version

Wow, Vega in English at last! Great work to everyone who contributed to this (and whoever figured out how to get past those Dugtrios too :P)!

Did any info ever surface about the team responsible for the original version of this hack? I'm curious about the OST in particular; it's held my intense admiration for years and I love the way it combines Ranger 3 influences with an original take on the "Hoenn style".

Ok, I've encountered about a hundred Buizels and Kawappas and haven't found a single Laquagon in this little patch of water that recognizes as Shakudo Island. Is it actually here and its just that rare or is it back on the other route like the Pokedex says?

In my first run I got one but in the second I could't find it at all, so I cheated one xD

It's 1% so it makes sense to not find one easily.

I spent that day 1 real hour at x8 speed and no laquagons, that's bad luck

You are surfing right and not fishing? Just clarifying that it's on Route 523 and Shakudo Island.

Yes it includes P/S/S split. It is way harder than vanilla FireRed, all gym leaders have stupid type coverage and the level curve is high.

Go check the Sideshow Showcase, Vega Minus has been released which makes the game much easier and more tolerable.

Is there a list with the EVs that the Fakemon of this Hack gives?
I hoped that they were in the Vega Wiki, but they're not.

WHAT?
Pokémon Vega has sadly been translated to English.

why sadly? that really good news for me.:pink_boogie:

It's good news for everyone..one of the best rom hacks I've played so far. I think he's just spamming...there was a similar incident with him and a closed thread

I tried to play the game today, but it freezes when i pick my starter, is this a common problem?
