PMD: Expanded Sky version 1.1.0 is now live!

(For context to those who haven't seen the original post, this is a PMD EoS romhack that adds all* starters from gens 5-9 into the game as heroes/partners)

Anyone who was sad that Sobble wasn't a starter in the original version of the hack, you're in luck! Sobble has been added as a partner in MIDNIGHT version, and a hero in both versions (replacing skitty - who you can still get by downloading version 1.0.0 specifically).

Heroes (both versions):

Partners (vary depending on version)

There's a few extra quality of life updates tossed in this version (such as being able to find the new pokemon in a dungeon to recruit) so be sure to check back in on the updated version of the original post, and share that one if you can! Don't want anyone thinking Sobble is still missing 8)

*I'll go back and add Grookey if the sprite respository updates in the future, as well as any other quality of life improvements as I see fit or based on suggestions!

PMD Special Episode 0 Romhack: Secret Cutscene!

NOTE: This post will contain minor spoilers for the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky games as well as a romhack based off of it: Special Episode 0: In a Dark Past Well. This wasn't exactly what I expected for my first post, but I sure as hell ain't complaining! I'm making this post since I discovered something that I haven't seen posted anywhere, so I thought I might as well share it. Sorry if it's a little long! First off, a bit of context: Thanks to numerous fanart, I've begun playing a PMD romhack called Special Episode 0: In a Dark Past. It's a romhack of the Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky games specifically, delving deeper into the backstories of two of its characters: Grovyle and Dusknoir. As a massive PMD EoS fan, I've been enjoying it so far! Highly recommend it to anyone who's a fan of these games or characters and the writing is great! You can check out the creator's Twitter here, the hack download should be in a pinned post: https://twitter.com/PKMM_ESPEP0 It was when I got to a fight with a Vespiquen and her Combee that I got a little curious. Before I picked up this hack, I'd already watched a short playthrough of it and knew that you were supposed to lose this fight to continue the story (Vespiquen is ridiculously strong and uses Silver Wind, which basically kills you from anywhere). But I wondered if it was possible to beat it. After all, I had a lot of stun seeds by this point, and Duskull knew both Disable and Hypnosis which could stall the Vespiquen.

So I did. Though I must first confess, I didn't do it 100% legitimately. I don't own a DS, so I play all my games using emulators, including both PMD EoS and this romhack. Thus, I was able to save right before the battle so I wouldn't have to reset and go through the entire dungeon every time I lost. So while I did manage to beat the Vespiquen fair and square from start to finish, I did do a couple resets to save time. But that's not what I made this post for. After beating the Vespiquen, I unlocked a secret cutscene! I haven't seen anyone share this before, so I thought I might as well put this out there for anyone who is curious. For anyone who's read this far, thank you so much, and here it is! (It's quite long at about 7 minutes, but it's totally worth the watch!)

Thanks for reading through this one hell of a first post! Like I said, I really love PMD and from the little I've experienced, this romhack is just as beautifully written. Highly recommend checking it out if you haven't! I wonder if I should start posting PMD fanart of my own...

Ingo is a troll.

Like full on, before getting isekaid to hisui he would go online, go on Chatter(pokemon version of twiiter) and troll people. Penny from SV type trolling.

So, as to not subject anyone in hisui to… Ingo… Arceus gives him an Arc-Transceiver, that has Chatter downloaded and connected to the og world.

Cut to Emmet, 2 weeks after Ingo has been missing, getting a notification from Chatter. He checks it and sees that its from Ingo, and gets worried abt someone hacking his account. He reads the post and is just like- Yeah thats def Ingo.

The post in question?

Also Ingo won’t curse Irl but he will become a fucking sailor online-

This is why Mojang is (even though it's still not perfect) a better company than Nintendo. (I can't bring myself to boycott nintendo because pokemon exists.)

Basically, Nintendo is about to copyright strike a bunch of youtubers for using rom hacks with mods such as randomizers and shit. That means MandJTV and other poketubers might be out of jobs. It's a fucked up situation. I don't know what to do about this. Nintendo (and gamefreak) makes all their money through merchandizing and can use the liberties to let things liek these slide, or make a free virtual console version of these games available on the switch with the randomizer mode as a built in setting (just making randomized pokemon be unrandomized when transferred to Pokemon home.) It would also save people from getting viruses on their computers tryna download this stuff. As for fanmade romhacks, nintendo and gamefreak should just adopt them and make them free. But no. They care more about their own products and the money they get.

I'm not saying mojang is perfect (cough mob vote cough). But they don't go to extreme lengths to take down modders. And a lot of modded content eventually makes it into the games. Back in the earlier days, they would even have the mod developers add the features into the game, such as horses and ender chests.

the nintendo 3ds eshop closes down in 8 hours from time of writing (5 pm pacific time 3/27/23) and i just realized there doesn't seem to be a post going around about this so i'm putting out a fast reminder:

THE ONLY WAY IN THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE TO GET ASH GRENINJA (GRENINJA WITH BATTLE BOND) IS THROUGH THE SUN/MOON DEMO!! additionally there's some gift pokemon in the omega ruby/alpha sapphire demo that have a special OT! you can find a list of those here on serebii if you scroll down!

they show up in the eshop as separate titles and are free to download so if you want to futureproof getting these pokemon 100% legitimately, even if you aren't planning to do it right now, go and download these!!

(however, don't panic, even if you don't, hacking your 3ds is always an option and you should do it! FOMO sucks, i just want people who care about this sort of legitimacy to be aware!)

[givrali]

hi everyone i made a little video about how to add money to your 3ds with some ideas on what to look for before the eshop closes for good. if youre not planning on hacking your 3ds there are a lot of digital games, themes, and dlc that will be unattainable for you on march 27th 2023 so if you've got some cash i recommend checking the eshop again soon so you dont miss out!

faq:

q. if i have games on physical cartridges can i still play those? a. yes. but i do recommend checking to make sure you have all needed updates downloaded

q. are internet services (online play) for 3ds and wii u going down too? a. no, as of march 2023 there has been no announcement for this

q. will i have to pay to use pokemon bank after the shutdown? a. no it will be free forever as long as you already have it on your 3ds

hope this helps!

Post that is not about the usual subject of this blog: If anyone here happens to be into Pokemon ROM hacks, I’ve just started Pokemon Unbound and it’s awesome. I guess I can’t really recommend something I’ve played for 15 minutes, but in 15 minutes I’ve been immediately struck by how good the graphics are, how smooth the gameplay is, how much attention to detail there is, how intricate a story they’re setting up right from the beginning, how the quality of life upgrades are immediately obvious. It’s like what I’d make if I could magically design my dream Pokemon game, and by “magically”, I mean if I had any of the very non-magic necessary skills, which I do not.

In Pokemon, ROM hacks mainly seem to be there to fix one thing: it’s technically a game for children, but enough fun to appeal to adults, so lots of adults play it, but it kind of sucks that they’re still playing something aimed at children. So a lot of the hacks fix things related to that, increasing the difficulty and aging up some of the characters and dialogue. And they’re non-commercial, so they get rid of all the annoying things that exist for commercialism reasons, like requiring you to trade with other games to get all the Pokemon.

This one does all that but also more than most other hacked games I’ve played, which is a few (Gaia, Blazed Glazed, and all the Drayano ones I think are the only ones I’ve played right through, plus dabbled in a bunch of others). It did way more than just fix the annoying parts of old games, seems to have gone above and beyond to make it more creative and interesting and clean up some rough edges. And does an excellent balance of managing all this while still making it feel like the old games, so you get the nostalgia and the fun of feeling like you’re in Pokemon, the way I find you sometimes don’t when playing versions that change things too much.

Like I said, this is based on the first 15 minutes. Maybe it crashes two cities in. But I downloaded it based off good reviews that suggest the quality keeps up. No one is reading my blog for recs about Pokemon hacks, but I just thought I’d put it out there in case. I think I'm going to try for a full Pokedex completing run on this one.

Touhoumon Purple (pinned post)

This is a pinned post! There is newer blog content below this point, but the rest of this post is contained beneath the Read More button.

Last update: March 19th, 2023

Documentation, downloads:

Changelog:

New documentation hub and landing page. It's included as a link to a Google Spreadsheet. While this is primarily the same as the contents of the text files, its easier on you for not having to juggle like ten tabs or whatever.

Mandatory Strength boulders have been pre-moved by default. Optional ones for items still require the HM, however.

Starters now evolve at level 30 instead of level 36. Learnset levels are adjusted for starter Chibi forms and evolved forms, including stone evolutions.

Red UFOs exchanges changed. They are now used for IV maxing NPCs near Mossdeep.

There are four NPCs with different IV spreads.

One is all 31. This is for most casual users in-game.

One is Attack 0, rest 31. This is to minimize self-damage from confusion on puppets that aren't using their Attack stat. Very min-maxy.

One is Speed 0, rest 31. This is even more niche and min-maxy than the last; the only use case for this is for purposefully slowing puppets down for Baton Pass. Gen 3 will sometimes use Baton Pass as a neutral turn switch, similar to U-Turn.

The last is Attack/Speed 0, rest 31. This is very niche and min-maxy. This is again for Baton Pass, but also minimizes confusion self-damage.

EV training NPCs in the Frontier changed. They now give 4 EVs in their listed stat per battle. This slows the process of EV training down but makes it way easier to make specialized EV spreads.

All TMs are now in Lilycove Mart, as well as the "rare" berries

Tori can now evolve into Chibi versions of the birds in the sprite

Yes, this does some absolutely ridiculous things to their movepools. blast burn mystia lets goooooooo

Tewi, Attack Tewi, and Defense Tewi can now all fully slide Attack and Defense could already slide, so this just makes it funnier. Use a Power Shard on Attack Tewi to turn her into normal Tewi, etc no advent though she can keep that movepool to herself

"Energy Ball" has, finally, been renamed to "Focus Blast"

Evolved Koishi now holds PP Up at 50% and PP Max at 5%

Reisen II buffs, finally -- Typing is now Heart/Fire -- Stats are now 65 HP, 60 ATK, 80 DEF, 130 S.ATK, 65 S.DEF, 85 Speed -- Her level-up movepool is unchanged, but she can learn a huge mess of special moves via TM now. This makes her usable if you want to, but you have to invest in her pretty heavily depending on what you may want to run -- Her primary ability is now Magnet Pull -- Gained Pickup as a secondary ability

Added another above-curve item, similar to Elder Pain and Psycho Wand -- It functions as a Quick Claw that always activates. Due to its relative ease of obtaining compared to the previous two items, there is only one way to obtain it unless playing the Sandbox version

This is actually the final update to this hack because I'm sick of binary hacking. It's tedious, slow, annoying, and things can just break. I'm tired of making multiple gigabytes of backups just because I want to change some images or text around.

This project is done! Complete, finished. There is nothing more that I can reasonably fit into this game anymore that I want to include.

I want to be done with this project.. so I am! Unless something is broken, I guess. If it literally does not function by my own fault, I'll fix it, but I'm not adding or changing anything else from this point on.

The shift to a Google Sheet is because we anticipate the current hosting, and by extension website, to go down permanently.

While backups are in place whenever a new hosting plan is picked out, this will continue to exist as a central information hub just so you don't have to thumb through multiple text files and wiki dive.

As of the time of posting this, the documentation is not 100% complete - I have yet to do level-up movesets and TM/HM compatibility, but I intend to work on that soon enough.

There are a few more things cooking right now, so stay tuned!

Pokemon Obscure V1.4 by Acegikmo Enterprises [C].gbc

That is the name of the Pokemon ROM hack I randomly started researching yesterday.  I remembered seeing a video of it as a kid and finding it funny before promptly going back to watching “vocaloid music”.

It took me a while to find the hack, and even longer once I found the actual name, since it was such an algorithm-unfriendly thing to search. “Obscure facts about [subject]” is a popular type of videos these days, after all.  Once I found the exact file name I found that it was repeated in a ton of ROM lists.

It’s a ROM hack of Pokemon Gold where you play as someone that was turned into a giant nose (with feet coming out of the nostrils), trying to become human again.  Or at least that’s the story according to a review on vizzed.com.

There’s a ton of wacky sprite and text edits.  It kind of reminds me of Pokemon Quartz, honestly.  Seeing the way that reviewer reacted to this hack having “custom Pokemon” (not fakemon) made me realize just how old this hack must be.

Sadly Nintendo already got to vizzed to have it taken down and I could only a download for the game by going to a different “shady” online emulation site.  Well, I did find two gameboy compilation downloads, but I wasn’t sure if my computer could handle downloading a ton of gameboy ROMs just so I could sift for one specific ROM, so I just downloaded from the first site.

I tried looking up this ‘acegikmo enterprises’ before I transferred the game to my computer that had an emulator, and only came up with a youtuber that did some weird math things that are WAY over my head. She pointed me to @acegiak​, who apparently also used to go by acegikmo, but while she did make an original gameboy game, I dont think she made a Pokemon ROM hack.

Later, when I finally managed to open the ROM hack on VBA I was met with a surprise...

Who’s this HFD?  And what’s Meowth hacks?

That's especially weird because this French playthrough by MeetTheReaperXV, shows that the title screen didn’t originally show that:

I tried looking up Meowth Hacks in the early 2010-2012 range, but haven’t come up with anything.  Was it a rom-hacking forum? Or a rom-hacking group?  No clue.  My search for context stops here, I suppose.

So, if you have any context for who Acegikmo Enterprises, HFD, or Meowth Hacks is: Please contact me!  I want to know if this nose-man and his pig-rival was some weird in-joke or something!

I’ll link the only other youtube playthroughs of the hack I managed to find below the cut, though.

[liverpool-enjoyer]

random ask since i'm in a pokemon mood: have you played any rom hacks? if so, which ones are your favorites?

DAIHSAKAFFOOOOOOH V I CAN TALK ALL DAY ABT ROM HACKS!!! I AM CACKLING LIKE A MANIAC RN THIS IS MY CHANCE

okokok ik you asked abt rom hacks but im gonna include hacks AND fangames cause tbh i always put em in the same category (illegal pokemon games)

the best, most top tier, most BRILLIANT fangame of all time is a game by ekat n michael called pokemon ashen frost. bestie @frostbite-yinny can vouch for how amazing this game is. basically its a crime noir pokemon game that takes place in one huge ass city. you play as a detective with a swinub as a partner n the game is split into cases rather than gyms. my words arent enough to describe how high quality and genuis this game is. the story is deep n intricate n so beautifully told. n ohmygosh the SETTING. the city of riverview feels so,,, real. like i literally miss being there. the MUSIC too!!! its so jazzy n compliments the setting n story so well. n dont even get me STARTED on those CHARACTERS,,, you will get ATTATCHED. n i mean it. the end a the latest demo literally had me WEEPING. it features a talking protagonist which rlly helps you bond w the other characters. basically, ashen frost is a story abt people that takes place in the pokemon world, n thats what i adore abt it. i IMPLORE anyone who likes pokemon to play this game. im not saying that cause its my favorite, but bc to not play this game is literally a disservice to yourself. in fact i'll even give you a download link,,, here ya go

ahem. anywho. as for actual rom hacks, my favorite is easily pokemon fire red rocket edition. pokemon but you play as a member a team rocket!!! its such a breath a fresh air. a fun way to play through kanto, which is definitely needed seeing as most ppl have played through kanto 53629523 times. n the STORY??? goes HARD. theres a twist at the end that changes the way you see the story of red n blue. it takes the game from really great to fuckin BRILLIANT.

special shoutout to my first rom hack n the one that got me into all this,,, its a fire red hack by @shima-draws n its basically the story of fire red but your rival has a crush on you n flirts w you throughout the course a the game. my gateway drug n the reason i was able to play through kanto <3 her post abt it is here

another special special game is pokemon legends of the arena. another BRILLIANT n unique fangame that has you travelling the region while participating in a tournament rather than a gym challenge. amazing characters, a talking protagonist which is AWESOME, n an amazing soundtrack!!! the story is absolutely FANTASTIC too. n theres a breathtaking sidequest too. n theres like three different endings!!! which i love!! i got the true ending on the first try hehe ;))

i also cant help but love pokemon insurgence. as my first fangame i have a lotta nostalgia for it. look man, this ones FUN. its got super cool delta pokemon which are essentially regional forms before regional forms were regional forms. the story is a fun level of over the top n i love the inclusion of some a my favorite canon pokemon characters. also, this game made me cry. not bc a the story, but bc its fuckin HARD. n my ass was playing on NORMAL difficulty.

some other rom hacks ive played are pokemon gaia n pokemon glazed but tbh its been so long i dont remember much abt em,,, heh.

Nothing's confirmed, of course, but this year's Pokemon Day is looking to be freakin' stacked.

The Given:

Updates to Masters

Updates to Go

Updates to Unite

Updates to Cafe Remix

HOME connectivity to Scarlet and Violet, plus the new QOL patch that's already been announced

The Given but still exciting:

Scarlet and Violet DLC news

A music(?) video showing off the pictures fans submitted

Hot frickity dang, please be real:

Possible Mystery Dungeon news, either a re-release or a new entry (Chunsoft copyright was found on Pokemon Together website)

Latest Japanese NSO commercial removed the disclaimer saying that Pokemon can't be transferred into NSO Pokemon Stadium, which, if real, could mean:

The Gen 1-3 games are possibly getting ready to be ported into the NSO Game Boy and Game Boy Advance. The 3DS shop is closing at the end of next month, meaning the Gen 1-2 games can't be downloaded from there anymore. Meanwhile, someone hacked their Switch to run FireRed on the Advance app, and not only does it run flawlessly, so do the online features for trading. AAAAH

[irradiatedsnakes]

it is so concerning that the only way to transfer pokemon from the ds/3ds games to the switch games is via an online service. it's not likely to be going down anytime soon- it survived the eshop closure, after all (as long as you have it downloaded- your reminder now to make sure you have pokebank on your 3ds before march) but it won't be around forever. at some point that functionality will be gone. hopefully by then nintendo will have moved onto their next console and switch hacking becomes more accessible so folks can make PKSM-like software to serve in pokebank's place

[kafus]

You mentioned making proper genned event pokemon, but what does that entail?

depends on the event in question!

back in the day during gens 3 and 4, IRL event distributions were often handled by running a custom GBA cart with the event distribution software and hooking up to other GBAs via link cable or with the wireless adapter, or a custom DS cart that took advantage of the DS' innate wireless compatibilities. obviously all of these carts were meant to be sent back to nintendo or get destroyed, but that... just did not happen to all of them lol. (there are also a few local distribution softwares for 3DS and stuff but wayyy less common)

you can actually buy gen 4 distribution carts for an excessive amount of money, though i can't in good conscience recommend looking for gen 3 distribution carts, they're INCREDIBLY rare and most of the listings you'll find for them on ebay are 100% fake and are scamming you out of hundreds of dollars, and most people don't know how to tell the difference unfortunately.

that being said, i'm not recommending you buy these at all actually, because most of the ones in physical circulation have been dumped online and can be downloaded. the digiex forums contains them, and you can download these and run them on actual hardware and roleplay being the toys r us/gamestop/etc employee and distribute to themself just like how it would have happened back at the time of the event lmao. for the DS ones it's easy with a hacked 3DS and twilight menu, but for GBA you'd need a GBA flashcart and the associated link cable/wireless adapters + two GBAs. this can also be done on emulators with support for local connection between two windows and has the same exact effect as doing it with real hardware, it just feels cool to do it with real hardware (pictured below is an ancient video i took of me distributing 2005 Aura Mew to myself with the actual software made by nintendo, running off a flashcart. i took this years ago and the quality is ass and my positioning is awkward sorry lol. my room doesn't even look the same...)

as for events without distribution software, old gen ones have the DNS exploit, which you can find simple instructions for here. this is much easier with gen 5 than gen 4 - you can find gen 4 help i wrote here. these restore all online functionality in the old games, including mystery gift - trying to grab a mystery gift from the internet will allow you to download pretty much any event in the game (though the one it gives you is random and you'd have to try over and over to get the ones you want). the data of these events is 100% identical to how the events actually were at the time of distribution, like completely indistinguishable, so it's a safe way to get those mons to bank and home, though you may want to change your DS date to the same date as the event in question so it doesn't look weird.

as for 3DS there is no fancy stuff like the above, you'll just want to go to project pokemon's public event gallery and browse for what you're looking for, which also provides a link to instructions for injecting these in your games. it's worth noting you can also inject all the gen 3-5 events that have been documented/archived this way, it's just less interesting than the above methods imo. this is probably the least legitimate feeling option but the data is still identical and well. other than elaborate glitches or something that's the best its gonna get. it's likely once 3DS servers shut down next year that eventually a DNS exploit-adjacent service will pop up for gen 6 and 7...

btw worth noting that gen 4 is the only gen where the name rater literally only checks for TID and doesn't even consider the "fateful encounter" flag that event pokemon are usually given, so you can RNG manip a matching trainer ID and then nickname event mons you aren't supposed to be able to nickname fully within the limits of the original game and hardware LOL. that isn't related to your question i just think it's funny that you can do that and it's technically completely legit

anyway sorry for the long ass answer i just find mystery gifts fascinating and it deserved me being a little more comprehensive

edit: oh yes and there's certain event mons that are still able to be obtained without all this wacky stuff, ie the pokemon colosseum bonus disc gives out infinite jirachis and they just released that as a preorder bonus back then. so worth looking at options for distributions like that too if you need a species of mythical or whatever!
