SoulSilver hack: Pokémon SoothingSilver Version 1.3.0!

Version 1.3 is out now!!! I've updated the main post for everyone to see all the new changes including new bosses, some hisuian forms and QOL changes like free move reminders! I hope you all check it out and have fun!

If you're using a save file from an older version that's fine just make sure to go the compatability man in Goldenrod, where the GTS used to be!

This looks really neat, I'll definitely be trying it out! One thing I noted looking through the docs is that Swellow losing its normal type seems like a huge nerf, since STAB guts facade off high speed is usually its whole deal. It's still probably pretty good, and I guess this could be intentional, but it seems like nothing else got significantly nerfed, so I think it'd be strange to single out Swellow like this.
 
Ah yeah I didn't even consider that it'd be losing stab guts. I made it pure flying since that was it's typing in the gen 3 beta and there were no ther pure flying types (aside from Arceus) in gen 4. I'll consider giving Swellow some buffs or reverting the typing
 
Is there any documentation for things such as wild Pokemon locations? Possibly for evolutions as well? I'm loving this hack so far but haven't been able to see a couple Pokemon I'm looking for.
 
Hey I not sure if this was intentional, but the alolan rattata overworld sprite is backwards when walking with the player. The version that I am playing is (v1.3.1).
I tried walking with alolan geodude and it walks like regular geodude. So maybe rattata just needs fixing.
 
Here's the documentation
https://docs.google.com/document/d/156Dtkz0PQAT39g4cMY7iLPQlyL5jiR6zTyuLgUcHZRQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

The dancing Rattatta glitch is known. My friend begged me to keep it that way since it doesn't really negatively affect anything and he found it funny 😅

Can anyone help me? I've been trying to patch the rom but I keep getting a "xdelta3 internal error"

There could be numerous reasons, make sure you're using the correct patcher mentioned in the readme. Make sure your soulsilver rom is european, and that all files are unzipped.

Sorry everyone that I don't reply here often. I am a lot more active on me discord server linked in the main post!
 
Is this still being updated or did you move on?

Is there an updated documentation?

One of my favorite things is the custom shinies, out of the 400+ pokemon you only made around 20 or so if I'm correct, there's plenty more horrible shinies that could use replacing.

As someone in the official Discord. Yes, it is still being worked on, albeit at a slower pace.
 
Game freezes in Pewter City Museum if Roark or his dad try to give you a fossil
Known bug, fixed for next version. Current work around is.... Spam A when talking to them lol. Not kidding, you gotta trigger their next bit of dialogue before they finish their looking down movement.

Yup still working on this, as Inner Rhymes mentioned, progress has been slow, but the next update will be quite big.
I need to check if I updated the list on the main post but, the documentation for 1.3 is still this one https://docs.google.com/document/d/...uLgUcHZRQ/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.tgwr5t1fw0bx
Yep more custom shinies are being added next version! The current latest version has 40 custom shinies, the next update will have about 65. If you've gotten any particular bad shinies in mind let me know, I'll consider giving them a custom shiny!

Thank you for helping out and replying here! I really appreciate it. The discord server is pretty much the only place I'm active now when it comes to Soothing Silver, I check by here rarely though. Once the next update drops I'll try not to neglect this place as much.
But yup progress has been slow on 1.4, but I think the next version might finally end up being ready in the first quarter of next year if everything goes well.

Hello where can i find registeel?
 
I'm having a lot of fun with this romhack! I ran into a bug, though. And the discord's invites are disabled currently.

I just got to ecruteak city and saw the interaction with team rocket, they left and Elm noticed me, but then nothing. I can't move anymore, I can't save, I can't select anything on the touch screen except "Check" but that does nothing except look like it's activating. Do you have any ideas? Or did I just lose like an hour of progress?

Edit: Ok, maybe I was exaggerating, but I made my way back and made a save before this meeting and I had to do it 3 more times for it to not softlock.
