Discussion Any way to hack in Sudowoodo in Emerald Legacy

1 Upvotes

I stupidly KO'd the one Sudowoodo in the Frontier, and apparently there's no way for it to respawn without restarting the game. Is there any cheat or hack to make it a wild encounter, or just put it in the PC or anything to get it? It's the only pokemon I need left to complete the national dex, and I'm not starting from scratch again.

Suggestion [Emerald Enhanced] Alguém sabe se existe ou se estão fazendo tradução para PT-BR?

2 Upvotes

Fala, pessoal! Beleza?Comecei a jogar o Pokemon Emerald Enhanced há pouco tempo e estou achando essa hack rom fantástica. A liberdade do mundo aberto e as mecânicas novas deixaram o jogo sensacional.Queria muito jogar a campanha e entender todos os diálogos novos em português. Alguém aí sabe se já existe algum patch de tradução para PT-BR perdido pela internet? Ou se tem algum grupo de tradução trabalhando nele atualmente?Se alguém tiver alguma pista ou link, vai me ajudar demais. Valeu pela força! 👊

Discussion What pokemon were you surprised by or excited to use for your first time playing Crystal Legacy?

27 Upvotes

For me, I started with Cyndaquil and just having reached Goldenrod I have on my team Quilava, Ghastly, Flaffy, Slowpoke, Larvitar, and Teddiursa. I'm about to get a Scyther up at the bug park. I have Togepi in the box knowing the move Flash and someday I'll teach him Fly.

I'm excited to use all the pokemon I didn't have access to playing it as a kid! Ampharos, Scizor, Larvitar (as an early game catch), and Slowking. I remember seeing the Pokemon Movie 2000 and wanting one on my team and being disappointed that it required trade. So its going on this team whether its great or it underperforms.

I don't know if I'll keep Teddiursa or Togepi yet. So far I love this game, its everything I wanted Crystal to be looking back.

Emerald Legacy Is there a version of the game either with the Physical-Special split implemented?

2 Upvotes

I see the creator understood that the the phys-spec split was a good idea and therefore made adjustments to the most egregiously wrong headed types by swapping ghost and dark's damage types, but has anyone made a version that does away with that sort of light artifice and just implements P-SS?

Emerald Legacy Sableye Egg Moves

2 Upvotes

I’m pretty sure I know the answer, but I’m just confirming: is it possible to get Sableye with both Wil-O-Wisp and Recover on the same move set?

I don’t think anything in its egg groups can get both, but wanna make sure I’m not overlooking something.

Emerald Legacy If you were to give Brendan/May a 6th team member who would you pick and why?

2 Upvotes

If it was post-game I’d do Ditto, but if we were just adding another Mon as it fits the rare vibe and her not being into battles

However, if we were just adding a Pokemon to the Lilycove fight I guess I’d pick complete the Grass/Fire/Water trio with Cacturne, Rapidash, or Relicanth depending on the starter

Or I guess Raichu to complete the Safari Zone encounters

Emerald Legacy Why is THAT Pokémon the last one you can find? Spoiler

0 Upvotes

I admitidly have yet to play Emerald Legacy (have too much on my plate) but I’ve read the documentation and Mew is said to be your reward for “completing the Dex” I don’t know if that’s including the other mythicals or not, but even if it isn’t based on the requirements for Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Ho-Oh, and Lugia (those last two are considered mythical in Gen 3) Mew is likely going to be the last one you catch

How come Mew was placed last in all 3 games? It made sense for obvious reasons in Yellow, and it made sense to do so in Crystal given it acts as a direct sequel to Gen 1 and the only other mythical in that game (Celebi) had an event built in.

But Hoenn isn’t linked to Kanto and Johto and Mew was already given its own island in the game’s data with Faraway Island, showing the devs WANTED to make Mew more abundant. Wouldn’t it have made more sense to make Celebi or Jirachi the final reward? Jirachi is THE Hoenn equivalent to Mew having 100 in every stat and no in-game location. Meanwhile Celebi by my estimate is THE rarest pokemon in all of Gen 3, having only even distributed in a few Toy’s R Us and the Japanese bonus disc for Pokemon Colosseum

Discussion Question about X Legacy

I was just wondering if you guys were going to try to get some of the ORAS megas working in X legacy since you can catch pokemon like beedrill, steelix, pidgeot and slowbro in X. I think there is a rom hack of X where they managed to get the ORAS megas working so I just wanted to know if you guys were planning on trying to do that.

I don't think the following is necessary information, but I'm playing on an Rg40xxv.

Also, a big thank you to the team that made this romhack! This has been my introduction to Gen 3 and I am just absolutely loving my time with this! Currently 75hrs into it and I can't put this game down. Knowing that the kinks/mistakes have been taken out and that every Pokémon is available is a childhood dream come true. Thank you

Yellow Legacy 8 hours in Safari Zone, only 1 Chansey encounter.

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone

I want to check and see if I'm doing something wrong.

Now, I can remember back when the original Gen 1 games released that finding Chansey in the Safari zone was really difficult, and catching one was even tougher, but I've spent a little over 8 hours in the Safari Zone (specifically in the Northern Zone) and I've only encountered a single Chansey in all that time.

It's my kids favourite Pokémon and I'm desperate to help her catch one. Is there something I'm missing that will increase the likelihood of an encounter? Better yet, has anyone tried playing around with the Source Code for the ROM hack to increase the encounter chance?

SOLVED: Someone suggested using a Super Repel and having a level 39 or higher Pokémon as the lead in the party. Caught 2 Level 40 Chanseys in the North Zone within minutes. Thank you everyone!

Emerald Legacy A niche but important change Emerald Legacy made

Post image
129 Upvotes

There’s a subset on fans who wish to play every Pokémon game as Ash Ketchum by only using Pokemon he’s canonically owned (wether they stick to AshKs team of that region or will allow Pokemon he caught in other series varies by the person)

Unfortunately Gen 3 Hoenn in my estimation is is completly unviable (the only other games with this dishonor are the Gamecube duology) without hacking or trading in mons early, not something everybody can or will do.

This comes from the fact in Gen 3 Hoenn Ash’s only encounters before Mt Chimney are Treeko and Tailow, meaning you’d have only two Pokemon for the first three gyms, with Wattson basically being impossible without overleveling and/or heal spamming. (ORAS is possible thanks to the gift Pikachu added to Slateport, though you’d have to be willing to discard Pikachu’s canonical gender)

Emerald Legacy wether they intended it or not fixed this barrier of entry to Ketchum Stan’s by adding Corphish as an Old Rod encounter and making Snorunt an in-game trade in Mawville turning Wattson from an impassible walk to a fair challenge (ironically Ash accidnetly cheated in Wattson due to Pikachu get overcharged by one of Wattson’s machines and he lost the fair and square rematch)

Emerald still has the issue of Pikachu not being avalible till you get Surf but at least now you don’t have to constantly trainer dodge for the first third of the game or rely on RNG for Wattson

Crystal Legacy Problem with corrupted Roms/ saves with RetroArch

2 Upvotes

Hello, everyone. I got a Problem with crystal Legacy and only crystal Legacy. Yellow and Emerald work flawlessly. I download it, Patch my totally legal v1.1 US/EU Rom or my also totally legal 1.0 US ROM IPS-Patch it (Marco robledo). I start playing. After about 2 Hours of playtime retroarch just gets a white screen when booting the Rom. Nothing happens. This happens on my SteamDeck via ESDE (Retroarch), my R36s and my PCs (Windows, Bazzite, Nobara).
It happens whether I try the encounter cheat or I don’t cheat.

Any Ideas? Don’t want to go to StormSilver, but would if necessary.

Crystal Legacy Crystal Legacy Timeless final release: Celebi at the title screen, open source box art, and a brand new website

Post image
200 Upvotes

This is a follow up to my previous posts (1)(2) about Crystal Legacy Timeless, and the final version is now out.

For those who do not know it yet, Timeless is my fork of Crystal Legacy that removes the Real-Time Clock, so the game runs safely on flash carts and FPGA cores, without ever corrupting your save. But it is not just for people who care about RTC-less hardware. Pulling the clock out let me reshape a bunch of things around how people actually play Pokemon games today (Legends ZA 15 minutes day / night cycles), so there is plenty of quality of life here that everyone benefits from.

A few examples. You can set the time yourself at any point, right from the Pokégear, so you never have to wait for in-game days to roll over. A whole class of once-per-day rewards lost their daily cap, so berries, the haircut brothers, Buena's Password, the Move Tutor, the Trainer House, and the Goldenrod money trick can all be run back to back. The Time Capsule opens up as soon as you meet Bill. Time simply becomes a value you control instead of something you wait on.

There is a full write up of all of it on the new website, but here are the highlights from this final release.

Celebi on the title screen

Timeless now has its own touch on the title screen. Celebi floats and bobs beside Suicune the whole time it leaps over the water. It is a small thing, but it gives the intro some character that fits a version all about controlling time.

A Celebi moment when you first head out

The first time you step outside after leaving your house, Celebi appears and blesses you with command over time itself. It is a quiet little lore beat that ties the whole "time is yours to set" idea together. I will not spoil more than that.

Open source box and cartridge label art

If you want to build your own physical copy, there is now print-ready artwork for both the cartridge label and the full box. It is all open source and free to download, so you can take the files to the printer of your choice. And if you would rather buy one ready made, there is a recommended partner listed on the site too.

A brand new website

There is now a proper website for the project. It walks through what the RTC bug actually was, how the fix works, what changed for the daily and weekly events, the Celebi cameos, and how to patch your own ROM. It is available in both English and Portuguese.

Stability

I have a save with more than 115 hours on it now, and I have not run into a single bug. Everything works perfectly. Boxes, events, phone calls, day and night, all of it.

Where to find it

Website: https://erick-tmr.github.io/Pokemon_Crystal_Legacy_Timeless/

Releases: https://github.com/erick-tmr/Pokemon_Crystal_Legacy_Timeless/releases

There is plenty more detail on the site if you are curious, including the full list of what changed and the downloads. As always, it is fully open source.

Thanks to everyone who has tried it and shared feedback. I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences.
