    Hi, thanks for this fantastic hack BlazingMagmar. I recently played through heartGold so I don't feel like a playthrough right now but I definitely will a bit down the line. Would you mind letting me know how you changed Kurt so that he processes the Pokeballs instantly? I may create a hack of my own once I have learnt more and would love to implement this feature. I also play the DS Fire Red Remakle hack (HeartRed) and would love to implement this feature into that rom. I have all the rom files dumped so if you would be able tell me which file to change along with the bytes and offset, I would massively appreciate it. Best regards.

    This is absolutely stunning! I'm glad to see Kris is back in a game, hack or not, I greatly missed her since she was not initially in HG/SS. This is marvelously done :) I'm looking forward to completing my play through on my AceKard ^^

    NOTE: Two sperate patches are included with the file:
    - A patch that change the level curves throughout the game to be more streamlined.
    - A patch that De-capitalizes names/attacks and other text throughout the game.

    Can you be more clear with this? So you've got two patches separated one in the main root and the other in the level curve folder. So is the patch in the main root got all the patches+de caps with no level curve and at the level curve folder does it contain the patches+level curve without de caps? Thanks! or it contains both the patches+decaps just if you would do it with or without level curve adjustments patch?

    I've tested two versions of this hack:
    Both in folder and out of it have de CAPs
    The in folder one has the level curve
    And save data can't be in common use between two versions
    AFAIK{:3}

    My bad, The DeCap patch is mandatory now in all version of the hack, updating that now:3c
    The save data can indeed be used from a clean rom without problems and can be swapped between all version of this hack so dont worry, u can use HGSS saves with this hack.:)

    I wonder is that possible to add fairy type to HGSS?
    I could but the problem is there are no existing offensive Fairy Type moves in the game only defensive ones such as Charm and Moonlight, and I dont want to edit other moves to make them fairy type when they would otherwise not be.
    Oh perhaps you can make TMs use infinitely
    That will be perfect ;)
    That is something I definetly have planned to do. Once I figure out how to do it i will do so.{:3}

    Definitely gonna try this out. Seems to have quite a few different things compared to Drayano's HGSS hacks.

    I've started playing this a while ago, and I'm really enjoying it!

    I do have one nitpick, though. When I first arrived at Mahogany Town, I was looking for the Move Tutor that had been moved there like the OP said. However, I couldn't find him at all. After defeating Team Rocket at the Radio Tower, he still wasn't there. However, the Move Tutor at the Lake of Rage actually was there.

    Just so you know, I'm playing the Heart Gold version with the more streamlined level curve.

    I hope this question don't come off too dumb but may I ask how can I apply the level curve patch over the Golden edition patched rom? The checksum won't let me so Im not sure how I can add both patches. Thanks in advance!

    You can't add both patches to one ROM. You need to apply the level curve patch to a clean HeartGold or SoulSilver ROM.
