I have been working on a small demo as life picks up again. Hopefully, a triple monitor setup allows me to make this more efficient for beta testing. I am still working on this haha.
When the time comes, it will come!

I don't know if this is intentional, but in the bug catching contest I couldn't find a single ledyba after 2000+ wild encounters, and for Lola's garden, every Pokemon in it cannot be caught :/

How do I get Team Rocket to show up with Youngster Joey after the first badge?

I know you have to wait until night time but I've tried every time from 8pm and nothing? I swear it doesn't even go dark

The Introduction
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The noble and quite popular Professor Oak has made a national announcement on television stating that he will be visting the Taejo region. Excitement rained upon the local Taejo residents, but none other than Javyer Quau. Professor Oak has stated that he will be moving to Brighton Town, a town located on the western border of the Taejo and neighbor of the undeveloped Seijo region. Javyer's son Zaquar Quau who is 19 at the time is also excited to hear this wonderful news. The Quau family patiently awaits for Oak's arrival...

The Storyline
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pokémon Normal Version will be based on the theory of continental drift which will correlate to the legendary Pokémon Regigigas. Hence the title, "Normal Version." In order to add a little twist to the capturing of Regigigas, the legendary will be in the quite popular fan made "Sky Forme." (I will try to sprite a sky form Regigigas based on a few awesome fan made images I've seen on the internet). Also, the starter of the game will be Eevee with Professor Oak doing research on what makes Normal Pokémon so diverse. (Meaning that they are able to learn elemental attacks like ice beam, volt bolt, flamethower all in one moveset). An Eevee is given to indulge in his research. Some Pokemon from every region will be included in the game in a custom made Region Dex, with an "Extended" Dex later on in the story. The game will take place in the Taejo and Seijo region (with historic references to a historic region called Uiyto). Region names were based on the similarities between Kanto's and Johto's names (One letter before the K, J. T and S and similar endings) since these were my favorite regions. In addition, players will get to battle my counterparts "Frozen" (user of Ice and Steel) and "Inferno" (user of Fire and Rock) as they will be deeply involved in the story. Frozen wants to wipe out all life forms on the planet with the "Ice Age" and Inferno wants to build landmass in order to create his "New World." My third counterpart is hinted, but I'll leave it a secret.

The Progression and Download Center
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please Note (Please Read): As per Build 3.0 RC 3 basis.
These are not bugs. They just have not been implemented yet.
- This game is meant to be CHALLENGING and FUN. Use the Navigator!
- The hero has NO TRAINER BACKSPRITE YET.
- The Pokédex Pokémon data locations have NOT BEEN DONE YET.
- Some OW/trainer sprites have not been inserted yet.
- The hero and his younger brother's introduction sprites have not been inserted yet.
They have been masked. Professor Oak may get a new intro sprite
.
- Some item graphics have been replaced with a nice black question mark.
I'm still making item graphics for most things.
- Lastly, those lines that appear before the title screen appears are supposed to be there.
They are there because it is needed to conceal the original animation.

Bug Report:
(Glitches) (Easter Eggs) (Minor Bugs) (Severe Bugs) (Breakers)
These may be fixed, but not in current build version!
(R001) Catching a Pokémon species for the first time will bring up a garbled Pokédex background. This only happens for that and not the actual Pokédex. Maybe it's a RAM overlap.
(R002) Playing this game on non-traditional (ones that are not VBA-M) emulators may cause freezes in certain areas.

2014's Closing Words
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Alpha 1 was just a small self beta tested version of what I have made so far.
* Beta 1 will progress up to the third town of West Taejo, Silversky Town.
* Beta 2 will complete the continental land (excluding northeast) of Taejo.
* Beta 3 will complete the oceanic land of Taejo, Taejo League, and Post Taejo League.
Beta 4 Plus will contain Seijo and newly accessible areas of Taejo.
* Also when playing rom hacks, don't sneak peek through Advance Map
because it ruins your fun of the game and finding its secrets!
* The goal of my hack is to strive for simplicity, quality, and consistency.
It will emulate the unique style of what the Johto region presented in Pokémon
Crystal and in inclusion that it was my most memorable nostalgic region.
