Hello! Just popping in to say I am simultaneously amused and concerned about the last Pokémon I caught, the amount of Great Balls I had to throw at the dang creature made me worry that the Pokédex entry is genuinely a warning!

Spoiler:
 
Small update that addresses some bugs

Fixed a bug where an NPC would not take funds after purchasing a Diamond Stone.
Fixed a bug where even if a player had not inserted a Mainframe Core, the story would advance once leaving a certain area.
Fixed some typo's in dialogue.
Fixed an issue with Brett's Flareon having the wrong held-item.
Reworked the Trial of Conviction to be slightly easier, and fixed a crash that occured there.
 
Hi I've been playing this game for a little bit and I'm really loving it, but I'm completely stuck. I can't input the password in the game corner, I tried switching the settings, but it changes nothing. I'm playing on emulator but I do have a keyboard, maybe that has something to do it? I wanna keep playing 😁

You input the password by using the up and down arrows on the keyboard, try that on your emulator keyboard.

Hello, creator! Do you mind if I translate your game into Chinese? I like this game very much, and Chinese players will also like it.

I would need to know what map this occurred on and if possible, your save file. You can find out how to get it in the FAQ.

Of course, I will have to investigate what I need to do to make this possible for you.
 
Just finished the game and have to say, I enjoyed it! Full disclosure, I picked this game up as a bit of a placeholder while waiting for another game to finish bug fixes (they just had a major update), but I ended up getting more into it than I expected. I'll summarize my thoughts in bullet points:

Liked
  • Buffs to underused mons
  • Crafting system/synthesizing machine
  • Designs of the regionals/fakemon
  • QoL changes, although it maybe went a bit overboard in some areas (will explain more in "Disliked" section)
  • NPCs often had some good (and funny) dialogue to give them personality
  • The direction the game takes with the male rival
  • New megas are mostly cool but had slight issues with some
    • Wish Mega Starmie got more speed instead (maybe take some out of Special Defense?)
    • Wish Mega Bastiodon got a new typing or even just dropped Rock and gone mono Steel like Mega Aggron. No matter how high the defenses are, having quad weaknesses to Ground and Fighting will always be awful
    • Wish Mega Roserade leaned more into its already good stats instead of trying to make bad stats decent
    • MEGA MEW IS AWESOME. That statline + Psychic Surge + bottomless movepool is truly ludicrous. No notes
Disliked
  • Pretty easy, even on Mewtwo difficulty. You'll probably get more of a challenge with Arceus mode (which is also a Nuzlocke mode), but overall on the easier side of the games/hacks I've played. Might be what the dev was going for. I don't think there's any reworked/advanced AI in this so there's also that. I don't think this is an issue with the game so much as reflective of my own preferences for harder games
    • I think part of this is because the player gets access to EV & IV boosting items very early into the game, especially if you opt to take advantage of the no-grinding options. So if you are at all familiar with those attributes and are decent at teambuilding, you should breeze through this
  • Wish most regional variants were better stat-wise. Also wish Cardinian Wurmple evolved into regional variants of Beautifly and Dustox
  • Nerfs to stronger mons (Garchomp, Dragapult, etc.). I understand this was probably done to encourage use of normally underused mons, but I would've preferred to just have those mons buffed more to be closer in power/effectiveness to the stronger mons
  • Surf doesn't have an HM item and still requires you to have a mon who knows Surf

Neutral
  • Story was decent. Nothing groundbreaking
  • Some cities and towns felt huge and full of life (Anthopil City), while others felt pretty deserted (Neon City). So a bit hit or miss there

Overall I'd recommend this if you're looking for a good game that's not too difficult and puts some spins on mons you already know (and don't mind fakemon).
