FireRed hack: Pokemon Dark Cry: The Legend of Giratina!

[hacksrepairman]

Firstly, I must thank jiangzhengwenjzw for fixing up the Climb Boots thing and removing the end credits. This patch would not be possible without his help.

This hack was a pretty famous one back in 2009-2012, it's sad that this will never be finished. The truth is, it's almost impossible replicate what the creator planned to do to this hack. So the main purpose of making this patch is to make the four nice fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular obtainable in the actual game. So, this is not too faithful to the creator's idea.
The following things were fixed:
The broken tiles.
Some unfinished features like Climb boots.
The following things were added:
The four legendary fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular(They are the reasons why I made this patch)
The rest part of the region(Which is based off the world map)
The gyms(Which were based off the badges)
Some events(Not too much, I added them to make the game less empty)
Some legendaries are catchable after you beat the league(Pendular, the official regis, the legendary birds and Mew).

This in-game clock version was made thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw's help. Here's the version in which the clock runs 6 times faster than the real clock, and the pc time doesn't affect the in-game clock. This one is much better because the broken seasons were removed and the time-based events are much easier to trigger:

Here's the normal version in which the time is the same as your pc time and the broken seasons still exist.

The game froze after Prof. Rowan asked me which type of pokemon do I want. Is that normal? I'm using John GBA on Android

I think that is because there is something wrong with your patch or your rom, you may need to download the patch again to make sure the patch is okay and use Fire Red 1.0 as the rom base.

I am using Squirrels ROM. I believe it is 1.0 and I am using your recommended patch.

Okay, I guess it's my problem, I mistakenly uploaded the wrong patch, this should be fixed now.

[mikethepokemaster2012]

Wow thanks man this great work from you. Maybe guys can hand off their unfinished project to you.

 

[Inner Rhymes]

Hackrepiarman, man, thank you once again. This hack was one I would frequently check on when I was back in school. I'm now in college and damn, this makes me so happy. :')

 

[edlim93]

Can someone help me?

1. What is the type effectiveness of sound moves?
2. Are there any stat changes? What's Pichu's stats?

THANK YOU!

@hacksrepairman, thanks for the fix. Are you planning on more improvements? Like PSS, reusable TMs? So far I'm enjoying it. This was one of my favs but left it because it was too incomplete.

 

[edlim93]

when I met my rival near the tree it says I used cheats when I didn't. why??

EDIT: Figured it out: Dont evolve your starter (chimchar for me) before the battle.

 

[RenElite]

when I met my rival near the tree it says I used cheats when I didn't. why??

Did you insert any GameShark or Action Replay codes? It only triggers when you put one in.

 

[edlim93]

I did not, but I've figured it out. You can't grind to evolve your starter before battling your rival for the first time. Example, chimchar can only be up to Lv.13 for things to go smoothly. If you evolve it to Monferno, he will say you've cheated. Not sure if the same thing happens with other starters.

 

[edlim93]

First gym done. Man, this level curve is ridiculous.

The sound type should be the same as the original ??? type. And Pichu's stats were boosted since it can't evolve, it's the only pokemon which has the changed stats. I'm not going to add the new features since I wish to keep the old feeling of the hack. And the level curve in this hack is based off the pokemon which has the highest level in your team/pc, so you need a more balanced team.

Sorry about the double post, I have updated this patch because I noticed that the Cooltrainer Leroy on Route 607 is a bit overpowered, so I have weakened him, what's more, I have fixed one or two minor glitches.

Hi hacksrepairman, there's a problem with the sound type, it's probably because mitchel1 used the ??? Type for it. The problem is that moves make very little damage

 

[Quentix-hope]
