I took the red chain out of my inventory Drayano, and then Cynthia released the regis. Hard part was putting it back in again, had to use an AR code to give it to me otherwise I couldn't get back to the ruins. So bit of a manual workaround, but it worked. :)
Ah, ic. Well I'm glad that bit is working at least =p

Just curious, when hacking the game, why does it break a lot of stuff in-game? Stuff like the full heal glitch and the moomoo glitch seem odd to occur imo... Then again, I'm not an expert, but logically speaking, I don't see how editing one part of the game affects another part.
I honestly don't know ;-; The Full Heal thing I have no clue whatsoever, the moomoo I think is from PPRE messing up (for some reason when I saved in that house it wouldn't let me access the text anymore...). Then there's various bits of PPRE not saving movements properly which makes things freeze... (though I have a workaround for that). It's mostly the tools.

Damn those Level 0 nothings. >:

Also, a question for you; what is your opinion on the general difficulty of the hack? Too hard? Too easy? Just right? Somewhere in between?

Dray I just beat your special surprise in Cerulean Cave after catching Mewtwo. Did not expect that and was completely unprepared with my LV 70 team. Thank god I had flash and mirror coat you bastard lol

Difficulty of the hack? I say just right imo. Most will probably say it's too hard but I find em pretty relaxing, not as easy as the vanilla games, but not anywhere as hard as some other hacks around. The exp curve is generous, and you're never too outleveled if you don't grind

Special surprise :3 Hopefully you got the reference?

Oh and there was something I TOTALLY forgot to mention in the documents; after receiving the Earth Badge, go to the radio in Tohjo Falls and interact with it. You can get yourself a little present.

Are ya able to make the TMs like in BW like HMs? So that you are able to use TMs how many times you want? That would be interesting ;D (And great)
I tried, but my ideas didn't work D:

Have you considered just adding 99 copies of each TM where you find them? Like you could see psychic on the ground and when you interact with it it would be like the 50 rare candies in the giant chasm in BB/VW. It's not a perfect fix or anything, but it would be good enough for me

^ That was my thinking. Just change it to give 99 of them so it's essentially unlimited, dunno how you'd get through 99 of each.

About the difficulty, it's just right I think too. it is easier than Omega, and it's easier than your current Blaze/Volt is, it's about the same as Blaze/Volt was when you released it. I re-downloaded it and found the hack to be a lot more difficult now than it was.

One thing annoying about it, is that it seems like near every pokemon for gym leaders and rival battles use Toxic then spam Protect and that's really annoying. in addition to that it seems most of them have a thunder move. Thunderpunch or Thunderbolt, and I'm not really keen on giving Pokemon moves they can't learn without breeding. But overall it's fine.

Only one present? But it's hard to choose!

As for difficulty: this is the first hack I've played, and I'm finding it an interesting challenge. Definitely significantly harder than the original games—I'm really not used to actually having to sit around and train for gym battles—but not to the point where it seems impossible. In fact, I usually feel like the major battles are a pretty even match, because, even when I go in just to scout it out, expecting to lose because I'm underleveled by comparison, I'm surprised to find that I often just barely make it through with one Poké left. So, when I only just barely win those major battles, that suggests to me that it truly was a pretty fair fight.

So, as a person who's been playing casually for over a decade, it's been fun to step things up and have to take the game more seriously. For me, the difficulty is spot-on, and a nice introduction to the world of advanced Pokémon. Good work :)

Dray, one other thing you might think about editing is the accuracy of Fly and the power of Dig. In your B/W hacks, Fly had an accuracy of 100, and Dig had a power of 100. It would be nice to have that back. :D

I've mentioned the freezes already. Storm Silver Classic, on a DSTWO with the latest firmware, on a 3DS with the latest firmware. Normal HG/SS works fine.

I'm guessing this is because SS Classic and SS Complete have different game IDs, as compared to SG Classic and SG Complete which have the same ID.

Dray I haven't tried out this hack but if the difficulty is like BlazeBlack/VoltWhite, then it should be good. BlazeBlack was very challenging, but with the right movesets, it wasn't too hard.

The problem with that is that it gives people a lot of items to sell and rack up money. Now, I don't know what the money gain is like in this hack but having that many items to sell just makes it WAY too easy to get potions, revives, etc.

Yeah, that's a good point. I guess you could just make the price on each one really low so you couldn't sell them profitably.

As someone pointed out on the youtube video, the game doesn't work with cyclods, but your previous HG hack did. Any idea why that is, and when, if ever, it will be fixed? I've been anticipating this for a while. I love all your hacks and HG/SS are my favorite games, so combining the two is great. I've been playing a little bit on desmume, which works, aside from the occasional freeze, but it's just not as enjoyable as playing it on the DS.

As far as difficulty goes, it seems a little easy. Several of the gym leaders have pre-evolved versions of their pokemon that just seem out of place. I was expecting morty to be hard, but with all those pre-evo ghosts it was a pushover. Bugsy and Chuck seem to have the right amount of difficulty, offering challenging fights. Jasmine is another one that just seems weak in comparison, literally steamrolled with a single fire attack, while being at a 4 level disadvantage.

Also, it seems picking up the lagging tail after fighting the team rocket double battle, and then going into your inventory afterwards seems to freeze the game.
