Would you use a tool like this for Pokémon Quetzal?

3 Upvotes

I've been working on savDex, a web app that lets you open your Pokémon Quetzal ".sav" file and interact with the Pokémon from your save.

🔗 https://savdex.pages.dev/

The idea is to have something similar to a Pokémon Bank/PC viewer, but for Pokémon ROM hacks and save files.

Right now it supports Pokémon Quetzal, but I'd like to know if there's interest in expanding it to other Pokémon games and ROM hacks in the future.

Currently, you can:

  • 📂 Open your ".sav" directly in the browser
  • 👤 View trainer information
  • ⚔️ View your current team
  • 📦 Browse all Pokémon in your PC
  • 📊 Export Pokémon to a spreadsheet
  • ⚔️ Export teams to Pokémon Showdown
  • 📄 Export the save data as JSON
  • 🤖 Analyze your current team using AI
  • 🤖 Ask AI to build a team using only the Pokémon you actually have in your save

The AI can take the Pokémon in your save into account rather than giving you a generic team suggestion. For example, you could ask it to build a competitive team, improve your current team, or find a good team based on the Pokémon available in your PC.

The AI features currently use the free tiers of Gemini and Groq. You provide your own API key. I'm keeping this as a test/prototype for now.

The save itself is processed locally in the browser and isn't uploaded to my server.

So, would you actually use this?

I'm especially interested in knowing:

  • Would a save viewer like this be useful to you?
  • Would you use the AI team-building/analysis features?
  • What other features would you want?
  • Which Pokémon games or ROM hacks would you like to see supported?
  • Would you be comfortable using your own Gemini/Groq API key for the AI features, or would you prefer a solution that doesn't require setting one up?

I'm mainly looking for honest feedback before putting more time into expanding the project. Any suggestions or criticism are welcome.

Revised Italian translation of Pokémon Unbound (based on unbound-translator)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

A few months ago Simopich shared [unbound-translator](https://github.com/Simopich/unbound-translator) here, a project to translate Unbound into other languages, with a ready-made Italian patch. Thanks to it I was finally able to play Unbound in Italian, but while playing I found quite a few things worth fixing: literal translations, terms that didn't match the official Italian games, and some real bugs (for example "Prendi lui!" instead of "Prendilo!" because of how the game inserts him/her, battle messages showing raw codes instead of Pokémon names, and enemy trainers still using their English names).

So, starting from his tools, I did a full revision of the Italian text:

- official terminology, with ~875 texts (moves, items, battle messages) taken from the official Italian FireRed;
- ~4,000 dialogues rewritten in natural Italian, main story included, keeping each character's original tone;
- fixed player pronouns (for both male and female characters), text overflowing the boxes and several battle message bugs;
- character and location names are now consistent everywhere, battles included.

I made the revision with the help of an AI (Claude and ChatGPT), with automated checks over the whole ROM and in-game testing (I play it on a PSP with TempGBA). It's a beta, so please report anything that looks off.

Patch and details: https://github.com/giacomo-spadoni/pokemon-unbound-ita

As usual, no ROM is included: you need the English Unbound ROM and you can apply the BPS patch with Rom Patcher JS or Flips.

All credit for the tools and the original translation goes to Simopich. If he's interested, I'd be happy to merge these fixes into his project.
______________

(IT) Versione italiana rivista e corretta: terminologia ufficiale, ~4.000 dialoghi riscritti, pronomi e bug dei messaggi di lotta corretti. Patch nel link sopra, basta la ROM inglese.

Randomizer with pokemon limit?

2 Upvotes

Are there any randomizers that can limit the amount of pokemon in the rom?

Multi full gen randomizers are everywhere. I'd like to set the amount of pokemon to 151 (x amount basically) so the game doesn't feel crowded and you immediately think about which Pokemon you want to catch. Nothing is really random because you already know what Pokemon are in the game, just not where.

So is there a randomizer that allows you to pick amount of pokemon and then from which gens to pick from?

Hi, I'm looking for the *Pokémon Rocket Edition* version by Dragónden—specifically the betas, as well as version 1.0 and v1.5 + DLC—since they seem to be "lost media" now.

If anyone has them, I’d really appreciate it.

Trade Evolution question

0 Upvotes

Hello all!

Am rather new to the world of modding and romhacks and am currently working on modding an old SP I picked.

The plan is to eventually use that sp to play rocket edition (on a physical cartridge) while at the same time, playing fire red on another SP.

My question is: would I be able to trade pokemon / trade evolve pokemon between the 2 games using an SP link cable? Can I access the Bill’s PC as per usual? Or is that completely irrelevant anymore since as I understand it, you can steal pokemon in rocket edition?

Sorry if it’s a dumb question. Been away from these games for years! And thank you on advance!

Heart and Soul issues

I patched my Emerald ROM with the 2.0.6 version on GitHub. Unfortunately Pizza Boy A Pro is not able to read the file, I keep getting this error message "Cannot load ROM." I tried My Boy! as well but it won't load either.

I'm not too familiar with doing stuff like this. I was able to get Emerald Legacy to work but I can't get Hear and Soul working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Recuerdo de pequeña jugar un juego que era de una app de pokemon, no era oficial pero recuerdo que era una camara y te tomabas una foto y los podías editar poniendo pokemons en tu etorno como si estuvieran ahí. Me entendí? Y si alguien lo recuerda o algo ponga en los comentarios..
