Understandable, I find HMs annoying too, but I'm afraid it comes with the territory here. You can teach a Smeargle any HM, though, even if that's just a band-aid fix.
Thank you for the kind words, glad you had a good time!

personally I think the best way to handle HMs is to allow them to be forgotten, so you can "hot-swap" them. for instance I could have my quagsire know Waterfall as its main STAB move but swap that out for Surf, Whirlpool, Strength etc when I need to use them without having to fly over to the move deleter. That way you're still using your team members for traversal, and there's still a use case for keeping a HM friend in your party to save time from having to swap moves.

though I did some digging and it seems the conventional way to hack the game to make HMs forgettable also has the side effect of making them consumable, thus requiring another modification to make TMs infinite use (which definitely would be a step too far for this hack) so someone would have to find another way to implement it
 
Your hack looks amazing!!! That said I have a quick question as I just patched and am going to start playing soon. Is there a way to get a 6iv ditto in the hack for breeding? I want to get all stars on my trainer card and I imagine I will have to breed good mons for the battle frontier.

Honestly for that just use PkHex after you've completed the superboss quest. Technically you can farm Dittos on R47 but getting a 6IV Ditto is such a pain that you ought to just PkHex in one to breed with once you've completed the campaign and all that. There was no feasible way to make this part of the game organically.

Thanks for the reply I didn't know I could use PkHex so I will probably do that. I just thought I would ask since I've seen allot of different rom hacks that add an in game trade or something that gives a ditto for breeding purposes.
 
Hey so, enjoying the rom hack a lot so far, even found a shiny ledyba! though yknow, playing on 3ds with twillight menu so yeah, not gonna repeat what most people ask arround before, just curious if there's any development on the red screen issue for 3ds. if not that's okay, just curious if there's anything i could do at all or not.

You might want to try updating to the latest version of TWM+, not sure if that would help. I currently have other priorities but when its number is up I'll take care of it.

I did try to update it to the latest version, its crashed a little less, but still does it from time to time. And no worries, take your time with things, great things take time! best of luck!!

You might have better luck trying the patch from nds-bootstrap-extras (under 'fixedRomPatches') which I believe has a fix specifically for twilightmenu/nds-bootstrap.

Update v4.0.2 is out! Some small balancing tweaks to do with the first few route trainers post-Falkner and post-Bugsy, correcting a small relic of earlier approaches. In addition, some flavor text additions to Olivine Cafe and the enigmatic Furret House!

Uhh... It's in the main post? You might need to assemble the files on your computer and move it over to your phone via a USB? Idk.

I'm having issues with stability on Twilight as well. I was worried it was just me.

Yeah, I've looked into this and there's an option or two I can take but it won't be handled at this exact moment. Current timeline is RPO v6.1 -> Dev Room update for Plat and HG -> Stability update. Do note that TWM is somewhat temperamental regardless; a rare crash just comes with the territory sometimes.
 
Hi. I'm searching info about Held items but de linked doc says: *Please see the accompanying document for more details. What is it referring to? sorry if it's a dumb question


Edit: I just realised it is in the documentation in the zip file
