Emerald hack: Pokemon R.O.W.E. 2.0 - an Open World Version of Pokémon Emerald(Gen 9, 16 Badges, Sevii Islands, Following Pokémon, Costumes and much More)

Will VBA support ever be implemented? I've tried several other emulators, but they all had problems with saving my progress, and they would occasionally crash, making me lose hours of work.
 
Im playing on my android using myboy! Does it still work the same?

Yes, your device has a folder named "myboy", then you click on "saves" and your .sav file should be there, just rename the part before the dot to match the new file
 
Can't find this anywhere in the official documentation (at least not in the 2 versions of the "wild encounters" text files I saw), but where can camerupt, sunflora, and (if different from vanilla) sharpedo be encountered in the wild? Trying to get shards off of them, but no clue where to find them to get said shards off of them.

You can get camerupt in the grass near lavaridge town, Sunflora in the Safari zone and sharpedo by using super rod near lilycove.
 
This is my first rom hack and it's very fun. Thank you.

Suggestion:
- "view pokedex entry" for highlighted pokemon on party, pc, and dexnav screen. (e.g. press right trigger)

Bugs:
- life dew and dragon darts only target one pokemon (life dew heals 25% twice to user, dragon darts is single target and hits twice)
- double battles messes with the move type effectiveness tooltip thing. ("not effective" move will be suggested as "super effective")
- normal type moves hit ghost type pokemon after switch in during double battle (dragapult switches in and gets hit by double-edge)

It will not. VBA is so outdated that most of the heavily modified decomp hacks won't be supported.

Recommended emulators:
Windows: mGBA
Android: MyBoy!
iOS: Retroarch w/ mGBA core.
 
Hey does anybody know if the randomizer is bugged? I had a few nuzlocke playthrus from version 1.69 and the randomizer was fine (except for a bug with double battles and imposter ditto). But come 1.71 it seems like the seeds populate the same 16 pokemon species plus their evos across all routes. Is this just coincidence or is this unintentional?

It's a bug. It'll likely be addressed soon. I'm unsure if Riolu knows how to fix it or what causes it currently.
 
Is there a bug with Route 122 vs 123? Route 122 is supposed to be just the water section where Mt. Pyre is and 123 is the strip south of that with the Berry Master. What's happening is the PokeNav is correct and shows 122 as the water and 123 as the Berry Master area, but the DexNav shows the entire area as 122. Makes it a little bit funky when you want to do a Nuzlocke and all of the pokemon in 122 and 123 are counting as 122. It also shows 122 on the info screen of the pokemon you are catching on 123. Its not like its gamebreaking, but wanted to call attention to it.

TLDR; route 122 and 123 are combined.

This is an amazing ROM Hack btw and I'm loving every second of it.
 
Hi.
I'm currently hardlocked and haven't saved in a loooooong time (which is my fault).
I'm currently on the crashed ship outside Dewford.
I dove while on the ship and have no way to resurface as I don't have anything that knows (or presumably could know since everything else has access to any HMs they could know) dive.

Help?
 
Good day everyone , today I would like to bring you all a big update with some things to do and some features that were requested plus other things that I wanted to add myself since it is a big number of things please read the changelog to see all the changes

As a fan of the Fire Red hack Radical Red, I do like that this hack has similar features to it and the other Emerald hack 'Incliment Emerald'. However, one issue I have, which is a personal issue, is that I cant use any Gameshark codes on Pokemon Emerald hacks. Though to be fair, the only code I use is Infinite Power Points. So, if it's possible, I would like to see an Infinite Power Points mode.
 
Any chance that the option to increase shiny odds will be added? like 1/1028 1/500 in the options menu? I think it'd be a neat feature
 
Hi. Does someone know where could I see a guide to complete r.o.w.e pokedex with pokemon locations per route (in non-random modes)? I don't know where can I find some pokemon (national dex in 717). I've walked through most routes both day and night and used DexNav function to spot and locate every aviable pokemon in each route, and also evolved all captured pokemon (and bred to get pre-evolutions if necessary). Fossil pokemon like kabuto or aerodactyl are just a matter of time at maniac fossil home, but others like pancham or mareep I can't simply find them. Is there any other way than wonder trade to locate them?

Specially I can't find most legendaries. I've captured 3 regis, but beside that I can't capture more... Kyogre and groudon can't be reached in their locations (as room where they are is sealed). Rayquaza can't be reached as an old man who say that only worty ones can go on block the way. In one island, where I suspect moltres is located, I can't keep going on as there's a rock that blocks the way (can be moved only once, then there's no way to move it again)... Do I need to complete pokemon league at least once?

How likely are wild pokemon to hold type gems when encountered in the wild? So far I haven't seen a single Fomantis/Lurantis holding a Grass Gem, they only seem to spawn with Miracle Seed as their possible held item. I'm using a Galvantula with Compound Eyes to farm out gems.

Have you looked at the documentation? It lists it by route. It can be found on the online patcher site.

Yes, for most legends you need to be champ.
