I think the one thing that I like about one of the engines is the fact that they conveniently forgot the evolution method where it has to learn a certain type of move. It's not like there's a certain Pok?mon that needs that...*cough* EEVEE *cough* FAIRY-MOVE *cough* SYLVEON *cough*

So, what will the alternative evolution be?

I said screw it and edited the "Eevee Table" with the engine. You see, in order to make room, the engine has a special table specifically for Eevee so that it can have more than 5 evolutions. I decided to edit the "Sylveon" evolution and added 1. Doing some research and apparently Eevee can only learn 2 Fairy-type moves. Charm and Baby-Doll Eyes. So I used the Know Moves evolution methods and used that for both Charm and Baby-Doll Eyes. It worked, along with the other Eevee Evolutions, so that's good in my book ????
 


LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
 
So I wanted to fix the Dex data within my game. They worked, I just wanted to fix how big they were because they were overlapping with the graphics. I correctly used the convenient .ini maker from the emerald engines within the tools and resources thread, with little fixes here and there, got the latest version of PGE, and NONE of the tools work. They either give one of these errors:
Spoiler:


Here's the roms.ini file for Emerald below if that helps any:

PGE doesn't work, but G3T works perfectly. What could the problem be?
 
That's strange. Although, I think there are alternatives for pretty much every one of PGE's tools. Maybe, if you can't fix this, you should consider using independent tools?

Trainer editor: UTE and HTE both work, and UTE supports levels above 100.

G3T takes care of a few, and you said that one works right?

Not sure how if there's an attack editor that supports expanded movesets.

Have you tried seeking help from Dizzy or someone who knows Emerald inside and out?

Edit: Also, I was under the impression that PGE and G3T use different INI files. PGE also needs to be in the same directory as the PGE folder with the same name.

Tbh I love how G3T sees the pointer location rather than the offset. Though, I don't need a Trainer Editor, that was done a long time ago. I just need a Dex Data editor. Thanks for the help though!
 


Here's the entire Pokédex in Theta Emerald Renev. Any comments and suggestions on how the dex entries look are 100% welcome.
 
Okay, so apparently this needs to be addressed. Kind of a waste since I've said numerous times:
 
I'm having a few issues with Emerald Theta EX. No stat boosts ever seem to affect my Pokemon - Torchic's speed boost doesn't raise it's speed, and I tested a Ralts with 3 Double Teams with an emulator's save states and found no boost to its evasion whatsoever. Why is this?
 


When you click on the link, read the description. It's extremely important.
 
BETA HAS BEEN SENT OUT TO MY SELECTED PARTICIPANTS. If you commented on my pinned post, I would highly recommend checking your Facebook messages or for message requests. I might have also sent a few through Discord as well. Also, I've written down that if the beta gets released, the game is cancelled, so...yeah. Anyways, to my beta testers, good luck...you're gonna need it.

"Hey LC, why not add this specific piece of music to Theta Emerald Renev?"

Me:
 
So, I edited the move tutor attacks, and throughout Hoenn the other move tutors work. However, at the Battle Frontier, the move tutors where you have to spend BP, aren't functioning correctly. The names have been changed, but have two other move names popped up, UNLESS it's a move that didn't change (i.e. Elemental Punches). Here's video proof:


At first, I thought it was because I was using stuff past FFFFFF, but that's not the case. Anyone know what the problem is?

I don't know exactly what's going on, but from the video, it looks like the issue is can be summarized like this:

When you talk to the tutor, the list contains Move A, with the description of Move B. When you select Move A, it asks if you want to teach a Pokemon Move B. If you say Yes, it goes to to the Pokemon Selection Screen, where you can select a Pokemon to teach it Move C, based off of Move C's learn-ability.

I assume Move B is the original move for that slot in Vanilla Emerald. Is the Move that should be taught from the Tutor Move A or Move C? The answer would be different depending on which move is the correct move. (For example, did you want Tailwind or Recycle in that first slot?)
