HeartGold hack: HGSS Golden Edition

Is there any confirmation on whether all 493 Pokémon are available in HGSS Golden Edition?

Are all legendaries present and catchable? Is Celebi in the game and how do you acquire it if so? Is the Giovanni event present in game?
 
Just made an account to ay thank you for you hacks , I have enjoyed them a lot.
For me the only missing in the particular one is the PSS you have in Sour Crystal , it would have been perfect
 
I don't think the move relearner is working correctly. For example, my level 40 starmie can't learn psychic.
 
I'm really confused about learning moves. For example my Victreebel just learned Leaf Storm at level 44 instead of Leaf Blade. Does it learn Leaf Blade at all?
 
Does this rom hack do anything about HMs, or are there any patches that remove HMs (or fix them in any way) that are compatible with this rom hack?
Also, was the fairy type added?

What do you mean by "Various cut-scenes in new bark town have been streamlined so you can get to Route 29 much faster"? I'd prefer a version with no story changes.
Also do you think it would be possible to make a version that works with the USA rom?
 
Just made an account to say this romhack is great. The only thing I really hate about HGSS is the level curve and this fixes it.

I will say I wish there was documentation for what the Gym leader levels are/mons/moves. One of your last posts here was a Gym leader list, but it is not correct as most of the gym leaders after a certain point are 2 or more levels below what is seen in your post.
And the doc for where the wild encounters are stops after E4.

But even still. This rocks.
 
Here are most of em (not including backsprites or alternate forms)

aw, the image broke bc it was hosted on discord

New Update: 16/9/20

For the first time, i have changed the base stats of some pokemon that are not official changes.
Please give feedback on these pokemon, are they too strong or too weak?
Oh, can you say what Pokemon? I'm doing a Pokemon challenge where I'm making documents of the Pokemon I can use in each run and I currently don't have a computer that can run ppre or whatever editing/checking software.

1. It would have been better to not have the movesets from gen 8 or the move power/accuracy from gen 6. That deviates from the original Heart Gold Version way too much.

2. As for trade evolutions, you could have included NPCs on the 2nd floor of each Pokemon Center that can simulate trades. RitcherSnipes did something like that for Pokemon Throwback and Pokemon Emerald Revelation.

3. You should integrate limited-time events into the game. Most QoL rom hacks do that.

1) That's an opinion

2) As long as trade evolutions are possible, the method is irrelevant.

3) It's not a 493 ROM Hack
 
Yeah those images are out of date, I forgot about them. I have made new ones since then and all those changes to the elite 4 are intentional for the level curve fix.

Just fyi for others, these changes never got implemented as the last upload was in 2021, I confirmed this on my Heart Gold level curve patch, Jasmine's magnemite was still level 35.
Honestly the level curve mod seems to get really hard around Gym 4 and 5, kind of forcing you to grind. Might just unpatch it back to standard Golden edition.
 
Is there a way to fix the text speed setting? It always does instant no matter which setting is chosen.
 
Does anyone have something that does infinite TMs the same way this does (and maybe the level curve patch) but scrap everything else? I'd love to pretty much just have HGSS with infinite TMs and maybe the level curve thing, but the only hack I can find that does infinite TMs in HGSS is this one, and it has a bunch of other stuff on top of it that I'd rather not have as well. I do like the wild pokemon changes, I suppose my biggest hangup is that I wanna be able to still play as Lyra
 
Anyone know if its possible to get Leafeon and Glaceon in the latest version? I saw in the initial posts years ago that there was some sort of "woodland ore" in the game corner but I couldn't seem to find it in Goldenrod City
 
My first hack. A small hack of HGSS that mostly contains Quality of life and Aesthetic changes. I made this with the idea of replacing the Original HGSS games as it contains a few things that SHOULD have been in the originals.

Feel free to use these as a base for your rom hacks but give credit pls :P

UPDATED UPDATED 02/5/2021
