Blue hack: Pokémon Sister Version

    What it is about:
    Basically just a hack where I replaced the sprites of the male protagonist and the rival with female counterparts. The story is the same as the original game

    Changes:
    -Slight dialogue change to make the character recognized as female by NPCs. (Slight TW, some of these may be sexist, I made this on purpose because I like the idea that women being Pokémon trainers in Gen1 wasn't common) The player and rival are both around 16 years old.

    -Green(m) and Daisy switched places, thus the rival is nicer to you (with a twist) and her team is different. The rival's team will stay the same, she will always pick Clefairy as a starter while the player can choose the original 3 starters. Red can be met as the player's younger brother at home instead of the mom.

    -The music (Beginning theme) has a different duty cycle and the rival's theme was changed to the Pokémon lullaby from GSC (or at least I tried to change it into that)


    Please use the american version of Pokémon Blue for the patch. I hope I'll get some feedback^^ Please tell me if you find some bugs/errors.

    Game: Gamefreak
    Sprite for the female protagonist: Madame Frog
    Rival's sprite, Dialogue editing: Me (SlaySlaySl)

    a nice one. If i can make some Suggestions, i think it'd be fun to have a post game final rival battle in Cerulean Cave after defeating or capturing Mewtwo and somewhere to obtain Growlithe. And maybe for some fun maybe for some fun maybe add some rival victory quotes like the ones that went unused.

    I could actually make all Pokémon obtainable in the game, I'll definetly look at it soon. As for the battle in Cerulean Cave, I'm not sure about that because
    Spoiler:

    The rival victory quotes are in the game as far as I know, I edited them to be in character as well.

    Did you already play the entire gane? 0.o

    Okay, thank you for the feedback, then^^ I'll definetly look at a way to include it again
     
    Update 1.2.
    Changes:
    -Every Pokémon can be obtained now

    (I accidentally messed up Daisy's 1st sprite so it looks slightly worse now >_< I'll try to fix it, though )
    You can play the update with your save file you used with the earlier version, you just need to patch the update with an original american blue Version again and rename it like the old one

    Can you make a folder download because sometimes file does not work man pls make a folder download
     
    Ok so had to check, but i am getting an unknown opcode error right after i battle the rival at the lab. The 1.2 verison still works fine.

    yup. I'm getting the same unknown opcode crash error in the BGB emulator with the 1.3 version right after the rival battle in oak's lab (win or lose).

    edit 1: I found another game crashing problem with the v1.3 update: after obtaining Oak's Parcel from the Viridian City Mart and going back to Oak's lab in Pallet Town,
    talking to Oak while delivering Oak's Parcel also crashes the game with "unknown opcode" error.

    I guess the 1.3 version is buggy & more problematic than previous versions and should be avoided at all costs. I'll continue & play with the older but stable 1.2 version instead.

    why?
    there's no need for the creator to make a folder download as I can directly download the ips patch files from here just fine.
    just don't use the 1.3 version and use the older 1.1 or 1.2 versions

    edit 8/8

    upon further testing, the 1.3 version crashes with almost every rival battle, including the ones in route 22 before the pokemon league entrance gate, whether having no badges or all 8 badges collected (except for the final battle after beating the elite four).
