Hey everyone,

This is my first ROM Hack ever. Its very basic at its current state, but I figured I'd share it here anyway.
This hack will allow the HeartGold exclusives to be available in your SoulSilver game. I have also made SoulSilver's "rare" Pokemon such as Sandshrew, Caterpie, etc. as common as they are on HeartGold.
The Pokemon will be available in the same areas they would be in HeartGold, respectively.

Pokemon that have been added:
Mankey
Primeape
Growlithe
Arcanine
Spinarak
Ariados
Gligar
Mantine
Phanpy
Donphan
Sableye
Baltoy
Claydol
Mantyke
Gliscor

Kyogre and Latias are the only Pokemon from HeartGold currently unavailable. I wanted to add Kyogre to the same area where Groudon is, but I do not have the knowledge to do that as of yet, along with Latias to free roam like Latios, but definitely expect it in a future update!

This hack is perfect for people that want Pokemon from both versions, without all the bells and whistles from other hacks that are available.
Things to expect:
Custom Title Screen and Icon
Kyogre available in a special location
Latias to free roam
Leveling Pokemon without trading (not sure if I want to implement this or not...)

Just apply the patch to a clean copy of Pokemon SoulSilver with xdelta and you're good to go!

I say go for it!

Maybe you can find a way to make Stones easier to get too?

I'll probably make an additional patch including this function, for people that prefer the traditional way of trading.
As for the Stones, perhaps I could implement an NPC that sells them.

SoulSilver...
HeartGold...

Why not call this one DivineCrystal?

DivineCrystal, SpiritCrystal, CrystalClear.. I've thought of them all. I ended up picking SoulCrystal for now since this is a patch for SoulSilver, afterall - and a very minor one at that.

Alright, understood. Good luck with the project!

Will you be changing the game icon as it appears in the ROM list?

While something very minor, it is something that ads a lot of interest.

When will you finish this project?

Not sure. Whenever I can figure out how to do what I'm setting out to do, I suppose.

I have been attempting to do this, but the game will not start up when I use RomeR to change the icon.

I hope you keep this up, this is one of the better ROM hacks I've seen, and it has some unique features I've never seen anywhere else.
