Ooh... Apparently having all 156 Pokemon registered in your Pokedex will freeze the game when you register for as Champion when Professor Oak rates your Pokedex.

Also, I tested what happens you link up and trade and the resulst ends up with the receiving Pokemon becoming glitched.

Ah, thanks for letting me know!

Also, just wondering, was the trade done between 2 Unova Red ROMs, or with a vanilla ROM? I would have figured 2 copies of the same ROM would work out the same as the in-game trades, though I never actually tried it myself lol.

I tested trading with two Unova Red roms and a trade with Unova Red and Kalos Crystal. Only the Pokemon traded to Unova Red became glitched.
Here's some test subjects:
URED_01.png

This used to be a Tirtouga that was traded from Kalos Crystal. Note the messed up name (Was just Tirtouga) and Trainer Info (OT was SERENA and ID 39942)

URED_04.png
And this was a Tepig that got transferred from another Unova Red rom. Note glitched Special, Level (Was 7 when it was traded), and the blanked out name. And its only move was Ember while it knew Tackle and Tail Whip beforehand.

URED_03.png
And it had the wrong color scheme when I sent it out. And battling it further confirms it might have been corrupted.

URED_05.png
Same applies to this Frillish in another save file.

Ah, that's pretty funny! Kinda strange that the in-game trades still work but game-to-game doesn't. Ah well, thanks for the info! Gonna try to get a patch out for that Oak crash soon.

Finished this hack tonight. Here are some of my thoughts:

1. Started out fun, but gradually became less so. The lack of quality of life changes is irritating to say the least, especially for someone like me who isn't used to the drawbacks of gen 1.
2. I played Challenge Mode, but the whole game was a cakewalk except the first 1 or 2 gym and the Elite Four. Nevertheless, I did highly enjoy the Elite Four (my team was lv 40s vs lv 60s).
3. I saw every Pokemon by the end of my adventure, which was pretty neat that you can find all of them before beating the game. If I wasn't annoyed by gen 1's Box mechanics, I may have continued trying to catch them all past the 4th gym.
4. The battle sprites for all gen 5 Pokemon were GREAT! That was probably my favorite part, just seeing all of those gen 1 re-imagines. Very cool.

Thanks for making, @Azure_Keys !

Hey, thanks for playing! I intentionally left in most of the fiddlyness of Gen 1, as the idea was to try and recreate what Gen 1 would have been like if these were the original Pokemon, but I get what you mean about the lack of QoL features being frustrating. I've actually been toying around with the idea of an updated version less faithful to G1 and more user-friendly (maybe even a Unova Fire Red or something) after I'm done with my current project.

But yeah, thanks for the feedback!

I'm loving the hack, but it would be nice to have a list of where these new tm moves (like flamethrower) actually are

I've encountered a bug in the game that won't let me beat the game. I've beaten my rival at the Indigo Plateau, but the game softlocks me after my Pokémon are entered into the Hall of Fame. Granted, I had just caught every Pokémon but Reshiram.

Love this hack. I grabbed the source and built it myself. Was looking to fix the pokedex rating glitch and make random changes. Do you have a completed save file that I can test with? Not sure how to edit save files that are non-standard and I'm only at 127 pokemon owned myself :)

Thanks! I unfortunately don't have a completed save file, I actually haven't done anything with this hack in a couple of years (got lost in the Gen 2 rabbit hole, lol), but feel free to make whatever mods you want with the source code.

Cool no worries. I updated your code on github. I hope that is ok?

If anyone is looking for a fixed version you can grab my ips file with fixes here: https://github.com/Salsbar/unovared/releases

This was a really good game! It's too bad you can't post screenshots, because the highlights is definitely the gen 1 speites of our gen 5 pokemon. Everything seemed really balanced and fair, and team composition was good for trainers.

Minus the lack of physical-special split (Hurts certain Mons like Haxorus and, to an extent, those that got the lower of the specials such as Throh and Samurott), I agree with what you posted. 👌
