FireRed hack: Pokémon Vega (and Altair/Sirius) - English Version

[pokehacksz8]

Ok had this problem, there is a solution, the game doesn't work on most mobile emulators because it breaks the gba bios (read that somewhere), which lead me to an easy fix, at least for MyBoy! emulator on android.


On myboy go to settings -> advanced -> disable Use bios and the game should run fine. If you are running other rom's i'd advice to put it back on or they might not work anymore


On other emulators, i'd suggest fiddling around the setting and looking for a way not to boot with the bios file.


Hope it helps, sure helped me ^^

i tried the game on other emulators then vba and it crashes. it also crashes when i use a real gba with flash card if this worked with more emulators and the real gba this would be great. With the emulators you can mess around with settings to get it to work but if using real gba it won't idk if the guy who made this only wanted it to work on vba.

can someone answer me where i can get the national pokedex?

 

[chaos_envoys]

You get the national pokedex the way you get it on vanilla fire red

 

[AquaLeaderMatt]

The link doesn't seem to be working for me. Is there a mirror?

[Kamon15]

i heard there was a patch to make the game easier

is that true? i heard it was called the vega minus path

 

[Rhyze]

i can't get pass the girl with unown.. :(

 

[sonicxexe]

I, too, am also looking for a way to get past the girl with the Unown (from the D.H. building).

 

[PokeHazard805]

Does Grindon evolve? If so how?

 

[Orangeade]

So I was messing around with this hack, and was getting annoyed at the grindy nature and sort of limited selection of early game Pokes for the first 1-2 gyms (trainers and wild Pokemon are like level 3-8 with default movesets, gym leader has full moveset, 5 potions, and a team that's 20 levels higher than the wilds.)

Anyways, I found the internal ID's of each Pokemon! These go with the general codebreaker codes on FireRed and work with VBA, in case you want to shorten the grinding and make a more diverse team! (From gamefaqs.)

Mastercode:

000014D1 000A
10044EC8 0007

Wild Pokemon Modifier Mastercode:

000014D1 000A
1003dae6 0007

Level Modifier:

33007CF0 00XX (With XX being the level you want in hexadecimal, 09 --> 0A ... --> 0F --> 10)

Species Modifier:

83007CEE XXXX (Refer to list):

And the actual species involved:

I made this list around gym 2, so I didn't know the name of some of the later Pokemon, and instead tried to put down their type.

[Benedict87]

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. I'M TRYING TO BATTLE GATANOA IN THE SPHERE RUINS BUT IT WON'T WAKE UP. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. I WANT TO GET THROUGH THE RUINS SO I CAN HAVE MY POKEDEX COMPLETED.

 

[xeratic]

how do i get through the first town?

EDIT: never mind, already got to the second town.
also, for the pokemon codes, it says it's for a different game.
EDIT 2:i don't think you should put the codes of pokemon where they don't have backsprites or pokedex entries (shadow lugia)
and which code is for the deviant fakemon?

 

[ThomasWinwood]

The deviant Pokémon is Clotaku (006A) but why would you use a cheat code when it's a common encounter in the Spirit Mansion?

 

[xeratic]

i can't even get past the first cave like wtf?
there's the holes but i can't get to the other ones
also this needs a TYPED walkthrough. i don't want to watch 5 20 minute episodes just to find out what to do.

 

[Mosmero]

Does Grindon evolve? If so how?

It evolves at level 40, like most fossils.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. I'M TRYING TO BATTLE GATANOA IN THE SPHERE RUINS BUT IT WON'T WAKE UP. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME. I WANT TO GET THROUGH THE RUINS SO I CAN HAVE MY POKEDEX COMPLETED.

If you go through the Sphere Ruins' second entrance(near the edge of the island, south of the guy that sells revives) and talk to the braille wall, it should "wake Gatanoa up from it's sleep" and you'll be able to fight Gatanoa. Same is with Rowitza but in the main entrance

 

[Benedict87]

Ok. I figured it out now that I solved the six rock puzzle. I didn't know that the pattern had changed since the hack was translated. Everything is good now. I finally caught Gatanoa.

 

[Zef]

i heard there was a patch to make the game easier

is that true? i heard it was called the vega minus path

did you find it?

 

[Del]

The problem of Japanese hacks is the low quality graphics compared to Spanish hacks... But they're enjoyable... Thank you for translation!
