I made a Pokecommunity account just so I could comment on this beautiful thread. I downloaded Pokemon Cyan Beta 3 about a week ago, and I can't stop playing it. The game is just amazing in comparison to normal Pokemon games and even other hacks. When put up next to fire red, or other cannon Pokemon games the options and little side quests make the game much more interesting. But when put up next to other hacked versions? Cyan far outshines many others in terms of pacing and scaling.

For example I just finished and my team is as follows:
Level 43 Kangrish (Please tell me you plan on fitting in a late level evolution for this??)
Level 54 Typhlosion
Level 51 Tekagon (Shiny)
Level 50 Sealob
Level 50 Gengar
Level 40 Vullaby

I fought almost every wild Pokemon I could find and stopped in places like caves to grind out some Baulders (high exp yield), but other than that I didn't do too extensive grinding to stay at pace with the trainers, in fact almost the entire game I was ahead of all the trainers. I almost **** myself when I found the shiny Baulder. Instantly decided to add to my party of Quilava and Kelprawn. Didn't really pull its own weight (well neither did Kelprawn though) and was pretty much just a meat shield as Dreadrock, but I held faith and was rewarded at level 48 (didn't think she was gonna evolve again) when Dreadrock changed into the Rock/Dragon monster Tekagon. Sporting 156 def and 110 sp. def (at lvl 51), and learning tons of moves with flinch while also rocking the ability sheer force, she became utterly unstoppable.

I was thoroughly discouraged though by the fact that whenever you buy a rare egg, an eevee is the only thing that seems to come out. Although I happily conceded defeat on getting a Larvitar or Dratini and accepted the Ghastly that popped out of an uncommon one.

Also..... You got me to accept a bug type Pokemon into my party, that is an accomplishment in itself, and over all I have to say with how well balanced this game is I am able to sustain a 4 Pokemon party while raising a 5th before I even hit the 8th gym with utterly no sweat.

I urge you PLEASE, PLEASE finish this hack and allow me to continue my journey with what is probably my favorite team of any Pokemon playthrough.

Hey, I thought I might leave a review to encourage you to finish this up! You only have one last gym to go.
The game was pretty solid, I've only encountered two bugs: One when I used the escape rope in the cave north of Slate City (it warped me somplace weird with messed up tiles, but I got myself killed by a trainer which forced it to warp me back to a PC so it was okay), and the other was the stairs you take just before the Amber Path, whose tiles mess up when you go up it (again, it fixes itself when you enter a building).
The fakemon was pretty legit, except for Fribitad which I can only describe it as 'an alien foetus' (It's evolved form is great though). No complaints about the story or the English.
All in all, 9/10. Just finish it up and it'll be up there beside Light Platinum and Glazed as completed ROM hacks, and even stand out as a good Fakemon ROM hack.
Cheers.
 

Jeesh

I just wanna hack Emerald.

Can anybody help me. I've downloaded the IPS and patched it onto a clean rom. However i'm still not able to play the game. The game won't start in Virtual Gameboy and keeps crashing on the titlescreen in No$ Gba Emulator

Try it! Always work for me: in vba go to options>emulator>save type>flash 64kb. After close the emulator and open it again, it should solve the problem.

Pokemon Cyan is a really surprisingly good game. It's giving me some kind of challenge (at least in the beginnings) and even the Fakemon are mostly pretty good.
I've got one problem, though.
Spoiler:

Thanks for any help in advance!

Okay i'm having a problem. Going to the route to the right of slate city, the game freezes. I've gone out of my way to make sure the rom is clean, even downloaded a brand new one, and a new copy of the ips. It lets me poke my head out there, then it freezes. anyone else have this kind of problem?
