Emerald hack: Pokémon Team Rocket Edition: Dragonsden Version - Kanto/Sevii/Johto | Next release: DLC (season 4)

I was wondering the same, but then I looked into the Documents, my Crobat was 'Lonely' (+atk -def), and the og dragon that has 10 base speed less, is a Speed focused nature, that makes it out speed by a very little margin, if Crobat was Jolly or anything else that raises speed, it should out speed the og dragon
Yes, my crobat was adament nature i think, (+atk -spa) thats why i couldn't out speed it aswell, that explains the dragonsden playthrough that i checked out after beating the game, in that he out sped og dragon every time
 
Don't wanna sound stubborn but i really am, so..is the dlc being translated? I know dragonsden had worked really hard for the johto arc and definately deserves rest. But i just wanted to know is the translation for dlc in progression or not. Sorry if iam being too greedy, I just don't like that i can't play this amazing game anymore :(

Literally dev said everything is going to be translated, stop being impatient. It hasn't even been a month since Johto dropped. And then ya'll wonder why most ROM Hacks are never completed because of dev(s) getting burnt out.

Finally beat the Jhoto arc, and am still wondering how the Original Dragon that has 150 base speed, Out sped my Crobat& that has 160 base speed, with perfect IVs and EV trained in Speed... Only beat it thanks to Magnezone (sturdy is OP)
Must be the nature, Original Dragon has Naive nature:

.iv = 255,
.lvl = 100,
.species = SPECIES_ORIGINAL_DRAGON,
.heldItem = ITEM_LUM_BERRY,
.evs = {0, 252, 0, 252, 6, 0},
.nature = NATURE_NAIVE,
.moves = {MOVE_DRAGON_RUSH, MOVE_BLUE_FLARE, MOVE_IRON_TAIL, MOVE_BOLT_STRIKE}

Sooner or later it will come.
Is there a pokemon location document somewhere? Or barring that, can someone give me a hint to get the Tapu's?
The 'Relevant information' folder which comes with the ups file in the download link has all this information.

Tapu's are not catchable for the moment.
 
Out of curiosity, are their plans to incorporate Female Grunt into Female Executive?

EDIT: After playing through as long as I could with the game, I am at my limit. The absolute absurdity that are Articuno and Zapdos having cracked out stats, abilities, and level advantage isn't fun. It's artificial difficulty. With Surge coming right after the Zapdos fight, you are crippled to an unrealistic degree for a boss fight. The game just also shoves boss after boss at you. Unless I am missing something that makes the birds much easier to deal with than hoping to fish out a lucky crit or there are training spots I don't know of, this segment just isn't feasible even with the EVs shoved into my team.
I should increase difficulty even more, to enjoy this masterpiece even longer. Yes, it took couple tries and a bit strategy before battle, but my Pokémon was not fully EV trained.
 
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokémon Team Rocket Edition: Dragonsden Version - Kanto/Sevii/Johto | Next release: DLC (season 4)It was best rom hack I ever played and I've played all of them. Also it's the best Pokémon game ever. #deepbond

Of course it's not 10 of 10 it's 9. A lot can be added/changed but there is no other hack or original game than better than that. Devs just beat them all.

It's kinda like fantasy and dark fantasy. After you've played hundreds and hundreds same fantasy games and get bored of how non creative they are and then taste dark fantasy first time. This hack is the first "dark" (a bit dark) Pokémon rom hack that actually managed to make a difference and pleased real Pokémon fans. (I wish it was much darker but anyways) Huge respect to creators.

First time posting here! I have two questions:

  1. Is the starter Zubat the only one that can Deep Bond, or can I catch another Zubat and level it up until it reaches Deep Bond? From what I've read in other comments, it seems like level 90 is when you get Deep Bond Crobat—just want to confirm!
  2. I'm still a bit confused about EVs. I understand the basics, but my question is: do I need to EV train my Pokémon before leveling up, or can I just use Rare Candies first and then Vitamins, with the same results? For example: if I have two identical Growlithe—same Nature and IVs—but one is level 5 and the other is level 40, and I EV train both then level them to 60, will they end up with the same stats?
By the way, just wanted to say this is my second time playing the hackrom. The first time was at the beginning of April—I beat the Elite Four, Lance, etc.—and stopped before the SEVII arc because I read that the Johto arc was going to be released. Now I've started again, this time with the experience I gained from my first playthrough.

Finally, thanks to the devs for this hackrom! I haven't felt this excited about a Pokémon game in a while—the recent installments from Game Freak didn't really do it for me. This is my first hackrom, and the idea of being part of Team Rocket is so cool! The way the devs fleshed out the plot, added new Pokémon, mechanics, and more—it's all amazing! Do they have a donation link or something?

I'll answer your questions.

First, if you don't train your Zubat, but capture another one, It will evolve to deep bond at level 90, the only thing I never tested was, if you can get more than 1 of them.

Second, You can level up your Pokemon first, then use the vitamins, the results will be the same.
 
Uh i thought we can get deepbond dragonite, milotic and volcarona. That's why I'm running johto arc with those pokemon, turns out we can only get one deepbond, huh?

Nevertheless, it was a fantastic room hack, I enjoyed it a lot!

Thanks!! I suppose it's only one Zubat, but I was curious whether it has to be the starter or if any Zubat can qualify—because I didn't EV train my starter Zubat.

That ties into my second question: I wanted to know if I can reduce my starter Zubat's EVs and then retrain it, since it's already level 75. I'd like it to be Adamant with 252 Atk and 252 Spe, as a fast physical sweeper.

Right now, we can only get Deep Bond Crobat, but I assume the other Deep Bonds will be available later—maybe in the Hoenn arc? Who knows, only the devs do, hehehehe.

You can get ev reduction berries from the berry farmer in vermillion if you have completed the side quest, you can get nature mints as well from there. My crobat was adamant with perfect ivs and full att/spe evs, it was so op with gunk shot, dual wingbeat, sacred sword and leech life.


Yeah, I hope so! Would be fantastic with those super pokemon in our team lol
 
I wish that to get deep bond we need full EV trained Pokémon with full happiness and for example streak of 100-1000 Pokémon's defeated without single faint. Feels logical for Deep Bond. 🤪
