Emerald hack: Pokémon Scorched Silver v1.3 [Complete]

[Sloo]

Currently playing this hack, I'm about to challenge Whitney and I love it so far. I really like that gym leaders are quite challenging and the new Johto region is fantastic! Can't wait for v1.3, the updates look amazing (especially starter mega evolutions and reusable TMs). Keep it up! You got a fan here

Thanks! I've actually been working on the megas this week. I think I almost had nature mints implemented, but when I compiled, I got a message that there wasn't enough save space for it, so hopefully I can figure that out.

This rom is amazing!
I strongly think you should add jhoto starters' megas, it would fit perfectly. Here some mega typhlosion inspirations
Also, do something about feraligatr not getting any water type moves except Water gun until like lv45, it feels awful to play.

I started making custom designs, but went with the deviantart megas floating around on the internet, and used in insurgence.
Although, I made my own sprites.

(Also made a cursed wilted meganium at first but decided not to use it)

Spoiler:

Edit: Also, toying with different ideas for Mega Hisuian Typhlosion. Made a witch doctor inspired design:

I've restarted and re-downloaded the game 3 times now and Lugia is not present - is there any pre-requisite to make this happen? I want to progress but keep getting stuck ... Have checked every square foot of the cave several times over.

You're at the wrong waterfall, that's Articuno's.
Go in through the top right cave entrance (from the dive area in the middle of the islands). Once inside, go to the top right ladder. You can also follow a HGSS guide for the Whirl Islands.
Edit: I see you figured it out.

When I was fighting against Wataru, my Bellssom hit super effective with Mega Drain against his Pelipper when raining. Was it normal?

I'm a little bit confused by the re-usable TM situation. Some TMs are re-usable and some aren't. I used the Aerial Ace TM and it's gone. I used the Thunderbolt TM and I still have it. I used the Brick Break TM and it's gone. I used the Scald TM and I still have it.

Is this an oversight or intended?

What are the odds we could get version 1.3 or 1.2.1 with everything but the increased bag size so anyone on 1.2 can keep their saves with the reuseable TMs and other improvements, then release a 1.4 or (1.3) right after with the increased bag size for anyone starting fresh?

Just a weird glitch. Should be fixed in 1.3 since I'm actually making the TMs reusable.
Currently they're not reusable, but sometimes don't get removed.

That pelliper knows Roost if I recall, did it use roost before your attack hit?

Not going to lie, I low-key dig the wilted meganium more than the devian art one. Probably cause I've seen so many hacks reuse those Sprites for mega evos

It was meant to have a somewhat "hisuian goodra" look, and have the thick fat ability for extra bulk.
Also made another hisuian typhlosion tonight that leans more toward the ghostly aspect... I might do a poll for some of these lol.

Please consider giving Mega Meganium thick fat and make it more bulky! Most hacks just use that devian art style mega evo, and slap the fairy typing on it. It would be nice to see a change in pace. Love how gnarly that sprite for hisuian Typhlosion looks!

My god… while I'm not sure if it did or not, I just found out about ignoring the flying type effect. Thanks so much!

I figure the people who have played those other hacks might be expecting to see the same mega forms again though.

TM and HM and the Berries don't show up when I check the bag. Hope this will be fixed soon.

Is trading with a friend at all possible?

 

[Windstorm6961]

Hey I know this is kinda.... i guess selfish/annoying? but could you maybe make the game corner payouts higher or something? it's really annoying when you just want to get tms and they're so damn expensive lol.

I have no idea why it started doing that for some people. I thought maybe because people were trying to use bad cheat codes or something.

Yes. Although I don't know how to do it, others have said it works.

That might be possible, although they won't have TMs as prizes in 1.3, since they'll be reusable.

The event in Ilex Forest makes all the TM's reusable until you reset or load a save, the bug persists through save states. It's possible you found another event or bug that affects TM's in some way, but I'm guessing you used aerial ace before the ilex event, used thunderbolt and scald afterward, and used brick break sometime after loading the game from the main menu rather than a save state. I'm currently just past the 7th gym and all of my TM's are still reusable because I use save states rather than doing a hard save.

 

[zolyoo]

Are you going to give the starters a secondary typing? For Meganium I would do grass and fairy, typhlosion fire and ground, and feraligatr water and dark.

Perhaps, but considering you are already making a unique mega evo for Hisuain Typhlosion, I reckon the art styles would clash with the Deviant art ones?

 

[Jocko2022]

@Sloo how do you evolve nidorino I've tried using a moonstone but it's saying it can't be used

 

[S03328]
