Also http://pastebin.com/msqkjgzb is a comprehensive guide to all significant touhoumon mods and should go in the next OP

In other news it's fun getting great IVs and a great nature but a 0 in HP sdfas;ldfkjj

>>9813745
Yes it is. I've no idea why this mod was even made.

>>9813709
Shizuha is a pure and honest Touhou and does her best to support the team by Baton passing Calm Mind + Ingrain.

>>9813760
Placing such a kind soul in a noncombat role is great and you should feel great for it.

>>9813750
I find the new typings to be incredibly interesting.

>>9813760
Funny you're saying that, I accidentally stumbled upon Shizuha porn just yesterday.

Why is EV training in PP Emerald so annoying before the Elite 4? I found this (>>9813745) a great feature of PP Enhanced, but Emerald only has ``somewhat convenient'' locations where you can get lucky and get the Touhou you need one out of three times (for one EV point, thanks a lot).

I can't take it easy unless my Touhou are overpowered as fuck.

Also fucking TSuika on every Team Aqua boss. High on drugs as hell.

Whatever you're trying to say with your epic reaction image.

I'm trying to play this on my PSP, and I'd like to ask which emulator has the Real Time Clock to show day and night?
I'm using gpsp j right now, but that doesn't seem to change from day to night.

I just noticed that Agastya released a new version of his hack today with an apparently working Battle Frontier (which is probably impossibly hard as fuck, knowing the rest of his hack). I'M OFF TO TRAIN BITCHES.

>>9814025

Oh damn, I didn't even think of that. Kinda ruins my love of it now..

>>9814026

Just approving of this method

Do I have a bad party, /jp/?

>>9814583
Yeah. I mean seriously, male Touhou?

>>9814620

Silly, everyone knows there are no male touhou and that is just an idication of their nature be it tomboy blue or feminine pink.

>>9814683
Fuck, I thought it was the other way around.

>>9814583
Momiji is an excellent physical sweeper considering she's not stage 5+. Mystia and Tokiko are Pidgeon-tier, but the stat differences are luckily not as extreme as in the base game. IIrc the Tengu crows are good Fly-users early on.

Starting a new game, I need two HM slaves thats will hold all my HMs. Anyone know any good combos?

>>9814735
Depends on the game. Genji could learn almost any HM in the old Fire Red hacks

>>9814039
The Pyramid is probably the scariest thing if you don't go in prepared.

In other news, YEAH

Wattson's Technical Iku literally counters every single puppet I have. This is bullshit.

>>9814748

Too bad the HM slave thing wasn't fixed. Such a stupid mechanism.

>>9815400
If I made a Pokemon game, I would give out Cut at the very start, but it would never actually be needed at any point, and you would progress through the game, eventually getting rid of it, until the very end. At the very end, in the last room, is a tree. If you cannot cut this tree, you must go back to get someone who can. If you leave the room, however, your rival gets to claim the champion spot, and you will never get a chance to challenge him for the title. You will be forever only second best.

how do I win at slots savestates and slowmotion aren't working because the machine is cheating

>>9815409
Would be much better if the HM's didn't require pokemon to use them, like having them be used like tools from the backpack. Or have them not hog one of the four move slots on other pokemon.

>>9815418
Some random Pokémon trainer smashing boulders would just be silly. Although it'd probably work in a Gensokyo setting.

>>9815413
Emerald or FireRed? If the latter just convert money to coins, you get plenty of it. Is it the same in Emerald?

>>9815454
it would make more sense for certain pokemon to just be able to innately "use" the HMs. Caught a water pokemon? Congrats you can now surf. I mean seriously you shouldn't have to teach a water pokemon how to fucking swim, or a pokemon who specializes in punching stuff to punch a rock really hard.
Of course this system would be more difficult to balance. You could always just say fuck it though and block ability usage behind gym badges because video games.

>>9815413
Just cheat lots of money and buy coins. It's cheap cheating but you'll never get 777 enough times in a reasonable amount of time. You basically have to play at 1 frame per second to hit all 7s.

>>9815454
Talking about the Emerald hack, here. I don't have plenties of money (I'm early in the game), and no matter how hard I savescum I can't get a jackpot or semi-jackpot on the slot machines.

>>9815491
I was literally playing at one frame per second and it wasn't letting me hit all 7s; it was skipping over them.

>>9815495
Emerald's slots are stupid. Just cheat for money or something if you really want to.

>>9815506
Isn't there a maintenance thing or something for the casino, after you clear battle frontier or the elite four? I wonder if that makes slots winnable.

The slots actually slip for up to 0.19 seconds after you press the button, making it really unfair. If they decide to slip for just the right amount of time, you can kiss your 777 goodbye.

>>9815530
Mine keep consistently slipping whenever I line up a 777. I've tried it tens of times, it's impossible.

Disregarding (apparently) much harder difficulty of emerald, it is the game I should start with, right?

>>9815483
Denying HM use to specific gym badges never made much sense anyway, especially when the move could still be used in a battle.

>>9815543
It prevents sequeence breaakiiing, bah

>>9815515
After the E4, but it goes off randomly and I have no idea if it actually works. Each slot runs a different special though to know how badly it needs to screw you over. The slots are literally rigged, and they were in FR as well.

>>9815541
They have a tendency to do that. The wiki even says that "they appear to slip far less often in FireRed and LeafGreen."

What are UFO's for?
Are they used for like, getting the evolution hearts?

>>9815569
Red Ufo can be traded for all the evolutionary items

Blue is used for the Move Relearner

Green can be traded for rare candies at Battle Frontier.

>>9815569
They have multiple uses. In Fire Red, green and blues ones are used as small and big mushrooms, respectively.

In Emerald blues are used as heart scales, and reds are traded for evolution shards (this might be in FR too, but I'm not sure)

>>9815586
FR:
Green - TinyMushroom
Red - BigMushroom

Em:
Blue - Heart Scale
Red - Trade for evo stones
Green - Trade four for a Blue, or one for five Rare Candy in postgame

>>9815542

Entry level to the games? FireRed. Emerald is harder and less polished/finished than FR at this point

>>9815602
Right, thanks for the correction. God, I suck at helping people

>>9815585

Man, that progress in sprite art.

>>9815697
Oh geez, i totally forgot about doing that ship sidequest where you get the DeepSeaTooth in the normal game.

>>9815728
there's one for defense too

>>9815718
Some of the old sprites were pretty bad. They often looked way too boring or had heads that were way too large

>>9815747
Not as bad as my spriteart.

>>9815747
To be fair, a chibi is -supposed- to have a head that's too large.

>>9815757
Well, they /were/ badly done.

>>9815757
But even normal and EXs had large head syndrome.

One question before I consider playing:
Does the version based on Fire Red have the physical/special split properly? Or is it still based on attack type?
No way am I going to have a Mima with massive sp. attack and no stab attacks to use it with.

So I'm getting ready for the E4 in the FireRed one, and I'm afraid of getting a sudden level spike for the champion fight, so what's the E4's highest level?

>>9815771
Yes they have the Phy/Spe split. You've nothing to worry about.

>>9815771
Yes there is a phys/special split.

>>9815784
>>9815782
Thanks. Patchoulling now.

The description says it sells for a lot of money, but is star dust for anything else?

>>9815808
There's a guy in the volcano area with a quest for three stardust. I don't remember what he gives, though. I think he gives you the third seal that the old guy next to him needs.
Oops, wrong game.

Finally...my first evolution.

Holy shit why has nobody complained about Green UFO rates? Chibi Nazrin was way too rare for a 50% item. If you see yourself hunting them anytime soon I updated em again, they're a little more common on Route 101 now and they're held at 100% instead of 50%.

At any rate, back to farming them for candies.

how do shard/stone evolutions work? please help, I haven't played pokemon in years and I tried looking on the wikis first.

>>9816256
You select use, then select a touhou that the shard is usable on. Not that tricky.

>>9816273
so, it happens instantly? I guess it's a good idea to wait a while before using it then.
I can't do it to basic evolved forms, either, can I? Like, I assume I can't make my Momiji into a Defense Momiji now that they're evolved.

>>9816279
Yup, that's basically how it works. Also, most chibi forms stop learning moves around level 30, which is also when evolved forms start learning moves

>>9816301
Thanks for the help, I can figure everything else out myself.

If this Emerald Hack is the one I think it is, then the daycare should have an egg that will bring your pokemon to level five and zero EV's. If that is so, then the best way, I've found, to train up super OP Touhous is to bring them up through chibi until they are about to evolve so they learn the moves you want them to learn, then evolve them and use the daycare egg. After that, pick up EV's, then raise them up to the level you want.
It's pretty time/rare candy consuming, but you end up with the best stats that way without giving up on any of the moves they learn as a chibi.

http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Touhoudex_2/Chibi_Satori
...That's a strange moveset.

>>9816382
It's basically a ditto that evolves into wobbufett

Most of my favorite characters are focused on special attacking, blah.

I love it when their nature coincides perfectly with the character's nature.

>>9816418
What did you except from a setting mostly based on magic.

>>9816630

That's not the point, I need a bit more diversity in my team besides special attackers and walls. Plus most of them also have similar typing so that works against them too.

>>9816647

I've been kicking the shit out of the trainers in Viridian with my Dai-chan using Attract (for some reason, all of their puppets are "tomboys"). Then, while I was using Pound against a Luna, I realized that what was essentially going on was a classic case of domestic abuse. Luna was immobilized by love while Dai-chan continued to kick the shit out of her.
Then I realized that, out of all the fanart and such out there depicting game elements, there has to be some depicting the Attract element as domestic violence. And if there isn't there definitely should be.

>>9816619

>>9816907
I take it your favorites aren't Wriggle, Yuugi, Mokou, or Suika, then?

>>9816907

I tend to lean towards Faith types.

Mokou has Recover
Bite is my only decent attack against her
Her Recover constantly out-DPSs my Bite
I only have three good toohoomons and one of them is Momiji.
I can't do shit, captain.

>>9816947

You can save your self turns with Confuse Rays if you really have no good water types

>>9816991
I ended up spamming Psybeam with Alice. It was a gamble but it worked.

>>9816251
What? Is that supposed to be sarcasm? CNazrin can be farmed very comfortably on Route 101 (right after howntown) and Route 116. If I wanted to, I could be swimming in Green UFOs right now.

Do something about CTewi on Route 116 instead. When I was still new to PP Emerald, I sat there literally for hours trying to steal a single Lucky Egg with no success. Very amusing, really. Nowadays, I simply Gameshark wild Touhou to be only CTewi until I find one.

>>9817306
>Nowadays, I SIMPLY GAMESHARK Gameshark wild Touhou to be only CTewi until I find one.

Please kill yourself in a cold and dark place, you bastard cheater ;_;

Oh man, because retarded tedious grinding is soooo fun.

>>9817576
What he said. I-it's not like I want to cheat. But I don't want to waste pointless hours on a _game_ without actually having fun.

>>9817680
Why not just cut the middle man and shark the shops to sell Lucky Eggs instead?

>>9817685
One of these gives things away, the other removes some tedium.

>>9817306

So, CTwei is basically Chancey?

>>9818773
stat-wise I think Kaguya is the closest to Chancey/Blissey

>>9818948
Woohoo, go Dai-chan. Just took out Brock solo on level fourteen. So far, every single trainer puppet has been a tomboy. Is this a thing the keeps going? Because that would be awesome.
Also, too bad there isn't a way to map abilities like Nature Power/Sweet Scent to your select button like the Bike and stuff.

Mapping those would be awesome.
Alas.

>>9819075
I wanted to post this image, but captcha...

I'm standing in front of the Elite 4, and arrived with only four puppets. WHAT TO DO?

PS: In truth, that's more like three, since Ellen is shit, I'm only keeping her around for her occasinal use as tank and for stealing shit with Wanting.

http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Touhoudex_2/DDaiyousei
Why is the evolution of Dai-chan that could make the best use of it the only one that doesn't get Baton Pass?

Substitute
Leech Seed
Mystic Water
Baton Pass

Switching in whoever I want with a shield up and great health regen would be awesome.
Though, I suppose I could replace Leech Seed with Lucky Chant and use regular Daiyousei, but she doesn't have the durability that Defensive Dai-chan does...

>>9819091
Do Touhou not evolve into their respective alternative evolutions starting from the main form? If yes, you could learn Baton Pass as Daiyousei, then evolve it into DDaiyousei and relearn anything you missed from the move tutor guy.

Or am I missing things here?

>>9819102
Chibi Dai-chan doesn't learn Baton Pass, and the alternate evolutions require their specific stone. I'd have to try breeding in Baton Pass and hope that it's an egg move for Dai-chan, since the wiki doesn't list hers.

>>9819102
Oh, no. I just understood what you were asking. The alternates evolve from chibi.
Chibi Dai can evolve into either Dai, DDai, or ADai.

>>9819119
I see. Thanks for clearing that up. I always thought the evolution path was Chibi -> Main Form -> Alternate forms using stones. (Guess I could have seen that one coming by checking the Touhoudex on the wiki).

Defensive Dai as an entropy wall isn't even that viable, either, because she doesn't have very high HP. If she did, then I could wall just about anything to death (barring the occasional Taunt) with
Leech Seed
Burn Powder
Mystic Water
Substitute

They made D-Daiyousei into a Special wall, though, instead of a general wall, which pretty much ruins that.
[/rant]

>>9819075
Catch and train 2 more.

>>9819091
In firered you can actually do that iirc. It allows "sliding" evolution in that you can freely move between forms and learn the moves of each form in the process. Kinda breaks the game but eh.

>>9819139
You can do that in Emerald 1.8, not FireRed 1.8 I think.

>>9819139
No shit? Gonna have to try that when I've got some stones, then.

>>9819155
nah, just checked it's firered. Emerald allows you to make use of stone evolutions at any point, but once you do you're stuck there. In firered you have to wait till you get the national dex to use stone evolutions but you can move freely between them once you do.

>>9819203
Sounds interesting to be honest. Thought I was stuck with these regular evolutions and would have to breed to get the alternate evolutions.

>>9819203
Ah dang, I always thought it was Emerald that required waiting until after beating the elite 4 to evolve a puppet into alternate forms. Dang, man. I feel like an idiot now. This opens up a whole new world of possibilities for staffing my team.

First Tewi I caught, no gameshark.
Jealous, haxfags?
My autism helped me, in this case. I passed up several Tewi because they weren't feminine.

>>9819250
What are Lucky Eggs even for?

>>9819250
To be honest, I would be more jealous if it was shiny.

>>9819256
The experience of the Touhou holding it is increased by 25%. Or maybe 50%. It helps quite a bit, to say the least.

>>9819261
In my opinion, it would make more sense for a Lucky Egg to give the holder an effect like Serene Grace or Super Luck. Or maybe just a heightened chance to wake up while asleep and to move while paralyzed, in love, or confused.

"In Generation II, when the Battle starts, the game picks four random numbers between 0 and 65535. If any of the numbers is less than eight, it is a shiny Pokémon. The chance of seeing one of these is about 1 in every 8192, or 0.0122%. From Generation III onwards, shiny Pokémon are determined by other factors such as the Trainer ID number and the personality value of the Pokémon."

>>9819403
I've never once seen a shiny.

>>9819422
I've seen 3 or 4 myself, can't remember which.

Pic related was my last one. Nearly missed it because I was running at 6x speed looking for a Yuyuko (never found one shit she's rare).

>>9819422
I found a shiny Chen recently. First shiny Pokemon ever, even though my Pokemon kill count probably goes into the millions.

I found a shiny kedama while surfing around in a randomed emerald once

it exploded on me the turn after an Ultra Orb failed to catch because I was too stupid to savescum

>>9819438
I always screenshot them on encounter, and afterwards. So far, three.

>>9819438

I found a Shiny Aya once while just randomly grinding.

I was doing a Nuzlocke run and couldn't catch it because against the rules.

I caught it anyway and just didn't use it

I have seen one single shiny in all my life. It was a Nidorina in the Safari Zone, and it was way back when I was playing on my actual game boy. I had no idea what it was at the time, and it got away.

I keep using turbo to skip through all the obnoxious forced pauses in battles, but I miss a lot because of it. I already disabled animations and set the text speed to the max. Is there a better way to do this? It's making me too aggressive and shit while fighting, too.

First world emulation problems.

>>9819573

I do this as well. You shouldn't miss much provided you're not just hammering the A button like a dummy.

Besides, it's not like you really have to pay extremely close attention to a Pokemon fight in order to get the gist of what's going on.

>>9819584
I have ADD so it hurts.

I don't have a tool for image enlargement.

>>9819702
Nice resolution

CLolice with Charge Beam is pretty evil due to Serene Grace. About as nasty was some trainer on cycling road that just ruined my day with a CYoumu + Fury Cutter.

>>9819702
How... And why is your Remi so chibi?

>>9819724
I just use her for flying around. And cutting stuff. She didn't really participate in battle.

>>9819724
Where you get Lolice form?

>>9819770
http://lkaexe.supersanctuary.net/thmnemer18/usefulthings/Locations.txt

Cave of Origins, you better not leave it before you catch it, because you can't get in afterwards.

>>9819770
In Emerald she shows up in the Safari, I think. I don't know about Firered.
When I played through Emerald, I went by a rule where I couldn't advance past a particular area until I'd caught everything there is to catch up to that point, so I spent a lot of time in the Safari in Emerald.

>>9819770
I made her my starter, the defaults get boring. Legitimately, in Emerald I'll assume >>9819786 is correct. No idea about FireRed, Safari Zone seems a reasonable assumption.

I've seen multiple mentions of a) someone to exchange green UFOs for Rare Candies and b) EV trainers in PP Emerald located at the Battle Frontier, but where? This place is fucking huge, and I've been running around forever.

>>9819818
Knew there had to be some super rare shit in the Safari Zone, especially since Shangai and Hourai are there.

>>9819786
I didn't think I caught anything in Cave of Origin, but I used the daycare egg on the one I have so I'll have to take your word for it, since mine says "hatched on route 117".

>>9819826
EV trainers are in the building I'm facing, and the rare candy guy is in the one to its right.

>>9819832
From what I can see, you can also encounter her in the expanded Safari Zone post-game. I believe the cave is the only place pre-Elite 4, though.

>>9819844
Thank you.

>>9819845
Yeah, just checked my locations guide. CMargatroid (AKA Lolice) shows up in the Southern expansion after E4. That's where I got her.

>>9819818
How do you change your starters around, out of curiosity?

Any tips for leveling new puppets post-game? Elite 4 + Exp Share (though that would be brutal, I wasted a lot of potions here)? Rare Candies? (I would kind of hate to grind for green ufos with a conversion rate 5->1 though, if I wanted to up someone 30 levels, I'd have to grind 150 ufos...)

It's the other way around, 5 rare candies per ufo.

>>9819902
If you're in FireRed you can just buy Rare Candies

>>9819901
I just use a hex editor.

And a list of mons and what numbers to use for Touhoumon Emerald.

http://pastebin.com/2JfdcfRZ

How about something like this for a generic set-up character?
Helper Shizuha (F) @ Quick Claw
Ability: Chlorophyll
EVs: 254 HP/254 Spd/2 SpDef
Timid nature (+Spd,-Atk)
- Baton Pass
- Burn Powder/Sleep Powder/Stun Spore
- Calm Mind
- Tailwind

This might work since the AI is stupid, and can probably not kill Shizuha in two turns. Anything that comes in afterwards will probably have good cards for raping.

Not sure what to do about spores. Sleep Powder might be nice.

Okay, so after more experimentation, I have come to this conclusion about the Firered hack:
A puppet's (feminine/tomboy) nature will always be the same as it's trainer. A male trainer's puppets will all be tomboys and a female trainer's puppets will all be feminine. Just something to keep in mind if you abuse Attract and similar effects like I do.

Ooh, I love it when Metronome sets off an awesome attack.
Chibi Tewi just raped the fuck out of a Chibi Shizuha in Mt. Moon.
With Fissure.

>>9820078
Personally, I always explode right into my face. Fucking Metronome.

>>9819702

use GIMP >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP

>>9820106
or use MS Paint
open image
ctrl+a ctrl+c (copy image)

ctrl+v (paste onto new canvas; present image most likely blurry, undesirable for pixel art)
ctrl+numpad plus (enlarge selected area by 2x)
move to center

yeah...


I just use Paint.NET nowadays, its rescaling is much better than what photoshop and Gimp give me, ironically. XnView has the absolute best upscaling interpolation, though, and IIRC ImageMagick does the best downscaling.

filter = effect or thing that fills in space between old `pixels
scaling = different size, but the proportions are the same

Gotta say, Yorihime's Fury Cutter's quite awesome.
She took one puppet down in two hits...and then one-shotted three in a row...despite it being 'not very effective'

...well ok

>>9820362
yeah, it's starts at 40 power in these hacks so it quickly gets ridiculous

One thing that I really, really despise about Touhoumon games is that they all make Flandre so shitty. She's got pretty good stats and movesets, but they give her one of the top two undisputed worst abilities ever, rendering her completely useless in actual combat because she has, at least, a one-in-five chance of missing.
At least the puppet that they gave Fretful to has a chance of having a different nature. Flandre always has Hustle.

and shiny Nyan Nyan. I've never met a shiny in the real Pokemon games though...

Okay, so I'm about to hop over the ledge into Cerulean, but I want to make sure I've gotten everything that can be got up to this point.
What I have now are fifteen puppets (All chibi):

Reisen
Koakuma
Nazrin
Tokiko
Rumia
Mystia
Chen
Kisume
Satori (bought for five-hundred yen from a guy in Eirin's Clinic outside Mt. Moon)
Daiyousei
Sunny
Luna
Star
Wriggle
Tewi

Are there any that I'm missing up to here?

>>9820385

She really isn't that bad. Flan has huge power that's boosted even more by Hustle, if she so much as touches anything chances are they're dead. Think of it this way, there's a 1/5 chance to miss, but there's also a 4/5 chance to completely obliterate the enemy. My favorite character tends to end up horrifically average in comparison.

Rin is so good.

>>9820437
Does Hustle apply to special attacks, too?

>>9820009
That's almost how my Shizuha is build. Though this one always gets Baton Passed in after a few Speedboosts from Lilly Black, so it doesn't really need a Quick Claw.

>>9820454
No, just physical. Ups physical damage, lowers physical accuracy. Ignores Special attacks.
She doesn't get many special attacks, though.

>>9819422
I tend to trip over shinies when doing nuzlocke runs. That and trading for ones friends trip over.

>>9820464
And most of them are inaccurate, ouch.
Flamethrower and Dark Pulse are the only moves she can get that consistently hit (100 base accuracy in the move). Also, Attack Flandre's sp. attack stat doesn't get boosted vs Chibi Flandre's, so it's probably a better idea to build with normal Flandre or with Speed Flandre if you want to have a probable-hit move to fall back on. Also, Dark Pulse is only available as a Chibi Flandre move at level 38, so keep that in mind too.

>>9820497
Also, I want to add that Blast Burn (not available to Speed Flandre) would work well as a buffer between stopping using Special attacks and Physical ones if you're going to run a dual priority setup like that.

>>9819422
It's funny. In actual pokemon I've managed to find 5 shinies, yet when playing a rom hack using an emulator that lets me speed the game up to become dramatically faster, I can't find a single one.

http://thpp.supersanctuary.net/wiki/Hail
It doesn't mention Blizzard here, does that mean that Hail doesn't give Blizzard perfect accuracy in these games?

>>9816251
For the new update to work, do I need to re-patch it with the lunar ips, or do i need to reinstall the heck? or is there some other method?

>>9820985
You should use the IPS patch on a clean emerald ROM, but you should be able to keep your old save. Using the IPS on the old version of the hack will probably work, but if it doesn't work right it will fuck up in subtle ways.

>>9820985

For that matter, does anyone have that link to that mediafire will all the clean & randomized roms? I forgot to bookmark it when it was posted last thread

>>9821007
http://www.mediafire.com/?iw488h7k35u44#1h6hx0p18pz0q

>>9821007
>>9821014
what's "randomized" mean?

>>9821014

Much appreciated.

Just got out of Rock Tunnel in FireRed using no flash. huuray,

>>9821030

IIRC its a version where the starters and all locations you would normally find the default pokemon at are randomized.

>>9821126
What's the fun if everyone's playing the same randomized version?

>>9821126
>all the starters... are randomized
So I could start the game with a lvl. 5 Articuno? That would be so cash.

>>9821137
You randomnize the rom yourself

no two randomized roms are alike

probably.

of course if you're in the middle of a random run and someone decides to patch said version of the game you're playing you need to re-randomize it. agastyaaaaaa fffffff

why text swapping alone isn't always the best idea

Is Youki really inside Altering Cave? Been searching for 10 mins now and only Kedamas so far...

Wow, Kogasa does have pretty excellent type coverage. Just on level twenty, she's got Twister, Powder Snow, and Astonish. If I can replace Astonish with a Reason or Water-type attack, that would be glorious.

>>9821562
Because on their 1st playthrough of the game.

it would be quite a surprise to get hit super effectively by a wild kogasa right?

Wouldn't it have been better for the Team Rocket hack to have begun here? I always wanted to say yes to this dude when he asked, and it would make more sense for Team Rocket to want trainers who have proven themselves useful to join instead of just any old idiot.
It seems like it would be a more seamless way to hack Team Rocket membership into the game than "lol here's a rattata now go steal shit".

>>9821652
Bonus points if, before this point, you can catch trainers' pokemon if you try but there isn't anything telling you so.
And the first time you catch a trainer's pokemon, the next time you go into a pokemon center he shows up with a policeman with relatively high level pokemon for that center to battle you.
If you win, then you continue like normal, but the guy at the end of Nugget bridge mentions that he's heard of a rogue pokemon thief. If you lose, then all of your pokemon are confiscated and you meet a Rocket while in jail. Queue the "lol here's a rattata" beginning.

>>9821688
So, two ways to start the same story? Interesting.

>>9821927
It's a deconstruction of the "branching routes" style of storytelling.

>>9821939
A deconstruction is barebones, though, and this isn't. A true deconstruction of "branching routes" on its own is "Pick a door and open your chest".

>>9821951
I thought a deconstruction consisted of taking the normal tropes of a specific popular style and bringing them to an unexpected but logical conclusion.
I think >>9821939 meant an inversion, since you would usually start off in the same place and branch off to a different conclusion, but in this one you start off in a bunch of different ways and each route ends up with you brutalizing the E4 in the ass and stealing all of their pokemon FOR THE GLORY OF TEAM ROCKET.
And also a ton of cash.

>>9821998
Okay, to put it another way (yes I'm post # **951) deconstruction is an analysis method that arrives at the foundation of something through identifying and challenging its part; that's my understanding of it.

So an example of deconstruction for "branching routes" could be, a fork in a road where one road leads back onto the previous path (and you can't go backwards), assuming that a "normal" branching route would make two seperate paths that either merge directly or have different destinations; as you effectively introduce recursion you have one route that contains things A and C, and another that contains A, B, and C. This is different from a normal "shortcut" because a shortcut is ABD vs ACD; a normal re-merging path. Of course, it's hard to make a deconstruction of something as simple as "branching paths", because the foundation is in its name.

A better example might be a half-sphere as an example for deconstruction of a bowl or cup; these things normally come with handles and/or have flat bottom (depending which you're talking about), but a half-circle has all the fundamental utility of a cup. Or, you could say, we don't need a handle for a cup, but a sipping spot would be nice! And then you have those Starbucks coffee cups made with glossy paper and a plastic lid. This goes against the usual "misshaped cylinder with a lid" but it's still a cup; I guess it goes to show that deconstruction is only useful for things that are hard to tell, what they are.

>>9822052
Disclaimer: I never studied deconstruction.

>>9821688
How difficult would this be to do?
Specifically, I would want three different methods of joining:
Any time, by stealing a pokemon and then losing to the policeman who shows up the next time you go to the pokecenter. Lose all your previously caught pokemon and restart with a Rattata at the lowest rank.
Cerulean, by agreeing to join after beating Nugget Bridge or losing to the guy who makes the offer. Keep your pokemon and start at either the lowest or second lowest rank (depending on whether you agreed to join or were forced to after losing).
Saffron, Giovanni offers you an officer position after you beat his worst team in Silph Co. Keep your pokemon and start off with a pretty high rank. He will only offer if you have stolen a pokemon and defeated the officer who comes after you.

You don't have access to the boxes until you have a high enough rank. Until then, any pokemon you catch beyond what you can hold automatically go to Team Rocket, and you get a percentage of what it sells for based on your rank.

No more access to Pokemon Centers. All healing must be purchased as items from Rocket Agents spread throughout the region. They do sell PP increasing and healing items as well as regular healing items. They also sell more items and special items that become available based on your rank.
Rank up consists of having gotten Team Rocket a certain amount of money along with winning a special battle. You may also buy your way out of the battle if you have enough cash.
All routes end up with you as Giovanni's Aide except the Saffron route, which lets you turn him into your puppet after you defeat E4 and capture all of the Legendary pokemon.

I just beat a Team Magma trainer by making them run out of PP on all their moves.

I'm on my last pokemon, I really need to go back to town.

>>9822199
Spoiler: When every one of your Touhou has exactly one hitpoint and no moves left, a cute, shiny Reimu will come to your help and smite your enemies.

>>9819257
Are you jealous?

The story of suffering Sanae continues. That first gym leader hurts way too hard. But one day she'll be a beautiful butterfly, I know it in my heart.

I don't know what to replace, help.
It's an Attack Rin.

>>9822233
How about Pain Split? You won't likely have that many hitpoints, and ghost is pretty good for coverage.

>>9822233
Tickle. Moves that decrease enemies stats arent nearly as useful as you might think.

>>9822233
Either Tickle or Disable. Leaning towards Disable though, it's harder to make practical use out of.

>>9822237
It's saved my ass against gym leaders, though.
>>9822239
I was thinking about it, but I was literally just using pain split to dredge through trainers without wasting restoratives or going back to town early.
I'm feeling more responsible about keeping my pokemon in check with potions now, though, so that's probably the better one to replace.

>>9822233
Seems like quite a dilemma you've got there. I'd replace either Pain Split or Disable, personally. Maybe even leave things how they are.

Oh man, that's a three way tie with two votes each, but Disable is the heaviest. I guess I won't need it now that I have better support moves, actually, so I think that /is/ the one. Pain Split and Tickle I can still get practical use out of - for resource management and weakening toogood boss puppets. Disable isn't good for either anymore.

>>9822241
maybe disable then? The only moves I can imagine that it would be useful against are the ones strong enough to kill you before you can disable them

>>9822247
Yeah, the only times I got use out of Disable were really lucky, or really awkard ones were debuffing at the start of the fight would have been better, or just "earlier in the game".

>>9822246
Yeah, go with Disable. It sucks anyway.

>>9822246
I like to use Pain Split against Recover-spammers like Mokou and such. Back to full health again? Thanks!

>>9822258
Yeah, that's one of the big ones I did too. Useful move against healing stuff.

Do All the abilities that have been renamed from regular pokemon keep their field abilities?

IE:
Does Focus double wild hold item rate like Compoundeyes?
Does DSatori's version of shadow tag increase wild encounter rate like Arena Trap does
Does Static make Wind Types more frequent?
Do Collector and Gatekeeper make it easier to find bites while fishing?

Mostly interested in the 1st, although it would be terrible if flame body and flame veil didn't cut egg step time.

>>9822271
There's an egg hatcher in Emerald's breeding facility, so Flame Body is hardly needed.

oh god I did not walk into this fight expecting a level 70.

dammit why can't she be level 40 like the legendary she replaces.

>>9822289
Use the lunatic Orb

>>9822289
Didn't you save right before starting the fight? Even if I know I'm high enough level, I save beforehand to make sure its a feminine type so she can breed properly and just in case I accidentally KO with a critical or unintended Super Effective attack.

>>9822297
Is that supposed to be the master ball? Because I never actually found that

>>9822289
Lily Black is not amused by your naming.

...Spamming discharge with an untrained pokemon shouldn't work so well, but it did.

>>9822334
It's because Kisume sucks in everything but defense. I also notice that you're not using a cute girl to battle. That's a big no-no.

>>9822336
It was my last chioce, everything else was too weak I swear. :'(

>>9822303
Funny you should mention that. I have a real bad habit of forgetting to save my game before doing something important.

I actually brought along only 1 puppet that was above level 50, since I didn't know what the registeel replacement was, and I wanted something capable of taking hits for the "lets watch a legendary beat up my pokemon while I throw tiny capsules at it" phase that happens in every legendary fight. So I decided to try weakening it with the only good thing I had, and end up getting an unlucky crit.

I need to stop being so bad at this game.

>>9822347
Time to reload.

>>9822304
>Because I never actually found that

That makes me wonder: Is there no Master Ball in the Emerald hack? The grunts still mention it like in the normal game, but i could not find it at it's usual location...

>>9822384
You'll have to Rock Smash a rock in Victory Road I or II to get it. It's pretty easy to spot, since it is the only rock in there and surrounded by a circular stone formation.

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pickup_%28ability%29#Pok.C3.A9mon_Emerald
Is this the same with the emerald hack? My Marisa got this ability, but I might want Hustle instead (works since I'm going for a Sp. Attack Marisa...)

>>9822401
Hustle doesn't effect sp. attack

>>9822404
Yeah, that's why it works for me. I can use P. attacks in desperation in case I get fucked against an enemy with low P. defense and high S. defense.

In Emerald, and the fossil touhous locked into ability and gender, or is the RNG just being mean to me?

>>9822442
it was the RNG. Doing stuff between my savestate and asking the guy to defossilize her wasn't working, so I saved and hit reset on my emulator instead. Lo, she has opposite ability and personality.

Is there an IV calculator that takes base stats instead of making me pick out a pokemon? So I can use it with touhoumon, I guess.

>>9822467
I ended up using Shoddy Touhoumon 2 to bruteforce the lowest possible IVs. After a little while I got a good one - HP and Sp. Attack are both at least 30, hoorah

>>9822289
>dammit why can't she be level 40 like the legendary she replaces

Because that wouldn't be Fun (tm)

>>9821169

Anyone know how to randomize this Emerald hack? Its has more pokemon plus all sprites were upgraded the sprites to Gen IV sprites.

Someone mind summing up what I can do in PP Emerald post-game? I don't exactly remember doing much at all when I finished the main game in the regular Pokemon game.

>>9822992
Ewww, no cute girls. >>>/vp/

>>9822999

I'll inquire.
Just thought to ask here since I first heard of the random games via a link on the last thread.

I've been getting my main party up to their evolve point, which was 28 for pretty much all of them... except Satori. I got her all the way up to thirty-two before looking it up, and now I find out that it's thirty-six. Thankfully, I've got most of Rock Tunnel to get her levels in. I'm gonna plow through this place using only her no matter how many times I have to dig back to the clinic to do it.

>>9823036
It's those Yamame that the Hikers carry. They're resistant to Satori's only attack and have attacks that are super-effective to themselves, which means that they are either barely taking any damage or dealing her massive damage. Which is exactly why I want to get Satori evolved so she can learn new moves.

>>9820106
I'm pretty sure the resulting image is clearer if you scale in multiples of 2.

I just met Team Magma leader and can't do much about him, he's tough and what I want to use is disadvantaged to him (CLolice, CAya, Medicine). I'm intending to get the moon sues but they're not available yet. When do my chibis evolve? They're around L33 right now.

>>9823472
That, but also switch off interpolation or it will get blurrier.

>>9823472

True, but if you want it bigger you can. Not to mention theres lots of tools in GIMP and other programs like Krita to make it sharper or whatever you want.

Didn't know that about interpolation..will try that too.

>>9823720
In Emerald, all of them evolve in their mid-late thirties. Very few in their fourties. Thirty six is a good number to go by, on average.

>>9824462
As it turns out I didn't really need to level up anything although a couple of potions were necessary to set up Medicine. Medicine with Double Team + Ingrain (how does that work?!) using Mega Drain removed CYorihime, then TSuika. Utsuho unfortunately had Razor Wind so I had to finish her off with CLolice. I'll figure out something better next time, first real playthrough in 1.8 I don't know what the hell I'm doing.

http://www.mediafire.com/?9jq9h4vi1v8jdxq
This folder contains a prepatched version of Emerald along with pretty much all the supplemental material you could need:
All the Egg moves
An EV guide for both before and after beating E4
A nonspoiler level guide to the major trainer battles
All puppet locations
All stone evolutions
A type chart

>>9824959
Thanks /jp/sie~!

>>9824576
God damn it, Double Team. Back in Pokemon, I usually cheated my way through hard battles using Double Team x 6 (and potions), set up Calm Mind afterwards and proceeded to rape stuff with my Gardevoir. Good times.

>>9824959
Instead of a prepatched version you should distribute the base ROM and the patch together, with a patcher.

>>9824959
...so in other words you took the download at http://lkaexe.supersanctuary.net/thmnemer18/ (p.s. you forgot the "Wild Hold Items" document) and replaced the patch with a prepatched rom

alright

also you forgot to c/p the "Wild Hold Items" document

>>9825015
I didn't remember where I got it, so I figured the best way to get it to /jp/ would be to re-up. I've got almost thirty touhoumon games, so it's a bit difficult to keep track of where I got them all. That does seem to be the original location, though.

>Also, please do not distribute a pre-patched ROM file (including compilations), nor any of your own "super awesome and cool" modifications you make to the hack itself.
>please do not distribute a pre-patched ROM file

>>9825020

Hmm..do you have any other touhou games that could work on a psp-cfw?

>>9825029
I... don't know. All the ones I have are for GBA.
I... guess I could spend a while to gather them all in one place and upload that, but... it just seems like too much work. Someone uploaded about twenty all packaged together in some forum, I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to find that. A lot of them in that package are still in moonrune, though.

why doesn't Agastya distribute a beat patch as well as an IPS one, since some people are having so much of a problem with IPS?

>>9825044

GBA works well with psp,
I'm new to touhou myself. Could you list the ones you have that are english-translated?

Here's an alternate format of the Emerald patch for people who CAN NOT use the IPS files, for whatever reason:
http://www.mediafire.com/?uficcxptl3jpjcu
Please don't use this if IPS files work for you.

>>9825082
Lunatic
Extra
Blue (the best one, in my opinion)
Aichiya's Puppet play
World Link
Marisa's Magical World
Amarillo
Aqua+Yui
Aquamentis

I might have one or two hiding in my mess of rom folders, but that'll be most of them

>>9825118

Cool, thanks.
I'll be look for those roms (aside from Puppet play obviously).

>>9825118
Puppet Play, World Link, and Marisa's Magical World are all a sort of set that go together made by Aichiya.
Puppet Play and World Link work like regular games, except with heavy, heavy modifications to storyline and maps. MMW is just a sort of playground where you can catch any puppet except for a few very special ones and trade them across to the other two.
Touhoumon Blue Version's primary selling point is that it was modified to be a completely open world. If you catch a puppet with Run Away, you can explore the entire region without ever getting any badges, except for very few small little areas that he put in as extra.

>>9824959
wow rude

>>9825267
http://www.mediafire.com/?kqlijebc42lbee6
For those with delicate sensibilities. Everything in >>9824959, unpatched and without the Emerald Rom, but including LIPS.

>>9825118
>>9825142
Most of them are detailed in here:
http://pastebin.com/msqkjgzb

As for the others..

>Amarillo
Was that even finished? Or started? It was only announced when everybody and their mother was announcing Touhou hacks.

>Aqua+Yui
>Aquamentis
These two are the same game.

>>9825075
>>9825100
Are people actually having trouble with .ips? What other patching methods are there, other than the UPS patcher that Aichiya throws around? I can kind of understand other operating systems, but nobody has brought this up to me before so I never thought it was a problem. If you'll mention some other common patching methods then I'll look into them.

>>9825330
It's not about "delicate sensibilities" or whatever. It's so I can efficiently stay on top of all the links and keep outdated ones out of use.

I kind of doubt it'll be less of a problem since I shouldn't need to update Em for a bit, but meh.

>>9825347
Ah, I haven't played those last three (two, I guess) yet, I just went through my list and checked to see if they were in english.
I'm gonna have to go through and organize my rom folder better. Maybe after that I'll see about putting together an up-to-date .rar with patches, detailed descriptions, and supplementary info on relatively finished touhoumon mods for /jp/.

still no DS version? its 2012

I really don't get how anybody can play the 1.5x patch based ones instead of the 1.8x patch games. 1.5x has horrible balance with most of them being straight out grindfests, you might as well give up on using your favorite touhou if it doesn't have lastwordfinal forms

>>9825398
I'm sure hacking a DS version would be much, much more difficult than GBA. Plus, there are tools out there specifically designed to aid in hacking the advance versions of pokemon games. Last I checked, no such thing exists for the DS games.
I couldn't even find a moemon mod for a DS game, and those would be pretty damn simple compared to the changes in touhoumon games.

>>9825414
That's much less of a problem with Blue/A+Y.

Blame Drakuaza and Anjirusensei, they thought stat inflation and grinding would be a good idea, and Aichiya decided to agree with them.

Satsuki is bullshit. 100% bullshit.

>>9825457
SYamame seriously creeps me the hell out

>>9825414

I can't play it because the sprites aren't nearly as cute as the 1.8 sprites. My favorite character's LW form in 1.5 wasn't amazing anyways so it's no loss for me.

>>9825472

>>9825472
Have you read that one doujin where she heals a dying man?

>>9825347
There were some people in the last thread who were asking for a prepatched ROM because they couldn't handle IPSs. It was a couple of people, at least.

Personally, I recommend beat format patches like the one I did (http://byuu.org/programming/beat/)) because it's a stable format that does everything a patch ought to do. It's a "modern IPS", with linear (overwriting data) and delta (adding/deleting supported) modes both. IPS is just linear. I guess for such a hack with simplistic replacements, IPS is fine, but its support on other OSs isn't so good. Beat is nice because there's two major patchers - one's in C/++ and it's totally cross platform, and the other is python.

Should I go with Toxic or Mana Burst on DKaguya? I got her HP and Sp Attack trained and plan on using her as a hard-hitting wall in the Red gauntlet. She knows Ice Beam, Signal Beam and Energy Light already.

>>9825707
>I got her HP and Sp Attack trained
>Sp Attack trained
Looks like you've already decided. Mana Burst, of course.

Why the hell are you playing this? The Pokemon Black 2 US rom just got leaked.

http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/746/

>>9825767
Because I'm going to buy it? Anyways link us to that, I wanna play before it comes out.

>>9825767

I couldn't even finish White version. Got tired of it. Don't think I'm gonna bother with 2.

>>9825767
My decrepit computer can't run any DS games without pretty bad lag. Sound quality sucks and trying to use the fast forward feature actually slows it down. I could barely make it through FFIV DS for nostalgia's sake.

>>9825393

This would be terrific. Thank you, thank you.

>>9825786
the balance was atrocious. 1 shot everything with darumaka/exadrill/archeops, or statup with quiver dance lilligant. Be constantly overleveled thanks to the free lucky egg and audino. Things got a bit more interesting with the elite four but that's a bit late. Frankly this is far more interesting with the more balanced typing system and ridiculous viable diversity.

>>9825767
I'm not sure if I can play a proper pokemon game now that I've gotten used to speedup. Pure White might still be worth it.

>>9825347
You can apply standard IPS patches on Windows/Mac/Linux. But the format has two main limitations:
- No support for >16MB files. This will be a problem if you need to expand the ROM.
- No checksumming. So when applying the patch, it can't tell you if it was applied to the wrong file or if patching failed for some reason.

UPS and BPS/beat don't have those two problems. Of those I'd recommend UPS because it's older and better supported.

>>9825473
Blue version uses the 1.8 sprites as well.

>>9825842
Any DS hacks would need to include speed-up changes for that reason. I'm having a hard enough time trying not to use speedup in Emerald.

>>9825767
>Black 2 and White 2
A number sequel instead of Gray? What the hell?

>>9825393
What's the point in archiving patches in a .rar file? You'd still have to update the archive file every time a patch is updated just like with a ROM archive. A paste that could be edited with links to everything would probably be the best option, unless you're just archiving old things that are never going to be updated again.

Oh wait, that's the state almost all of the hacks are in anyway.

>>9825905
UPS has fewer stable cross-platform patchers, or at least no huge major important ones. Both of beat's main patchers are cross platform and 100% stable outside of making massive delta patches.

>>9825883

It's not like I care about balance that much, I finished the main game barely but I never got to fight that fire champ guy everything about it kinda bored me. It wasn't bad but I don't think I'd want to play it again.

>>9825905
>No support for >16MB files
Not a problem since I don't intend to expand the ROM. I don't have any need to, and I highly doubt I ever will.

>No checksumming.
I guess that's an issue? It just kind of works when I use it, though. Shrug.

>>9825957
The main draw for another formar is support, since IPS patchers for linux and BSD aren't the most common thing and people don't trust Wine with patchers.

I just think having another format for downloading the patch on your site would help.

>>9825971
I'm working on the index file right now anyway. I'll include a link to >>9825774 and probably a beat patch as well.

>>9825984
Thanks for the support.

I've got my files together for this, now. I just need to put together summaries of what sets each apart and I seem to have lost Lunatic, insomuch as that is even a loss...
I also can't seem to find supplementary material for Extra and Aqua+Yui, either.
I excluded Amarillo on the hearsay that it was never finished, not feeling like playing through it just to find out right now.

Is this supposed to be hard? It's been pretty tough to beat gym leaders for me actually, I don't even know why.

>>9826069
Please have the Emerald 1.8 folder have a link to http://lkaexe.supersanctuary.net/thmnemer18/ instead of a patch, mostly so I can stop worrying about if it gets updated every time I update it. (Speaking of which, I updated that page with a beat patch)

Extra was abandoned and is beyond dead (and bad).
A+Y supplementary information would probably just be a link to its forum.

>>9826095
Also, Ai's stuff should all have links to their respective blog categories.

Hiding my beat patch since Agastya put up their own.

Well fuck.

Here goes nothing.

I'll include links with the patches, so people can check to see if the patch they have is up-to-date, but don't have to download anything else if it already is. I'm going for convenience, here.

>>9826213
Add a note forbidding re-redistribution, at least, if you insist on including patches for hacks that are still being worked on.

Touhoumon Emerald and Firered 1.8 Description:
No major map or plot changes, but very well-balanced. Both include physical/special split.
Firered does not allow you to use stone evolutions until after beating the Elite Four, but puppets can "slide" from any evolved form to another with the appropriate stone.
Emerald lets you use stone evolutions from chibi form at any time, but they are permanent and do not allow sliding.

Anything else I should add?

>>9826213
People don't even check the text files/links I supply with my patch. What makes you think they'll check them in yours? I'm just trying to cover every base when it comes to distribution considering I've politely asked for it to be distributed via the web page.

>If you wish to distribute this hack, then please link to this page

Just quote this? Only real difference in Em is that the Frontier moved from "being worked on" to "finished"

Holy fuck he was easy, the road there was way harder. I used like 30 Full Restores and 15 revives plus all 6 of my Max Revives.

there's something poetic about the final battle ending with a Shikieiki named reported on the field

>>9826275
I didn't see that.

I had a problem with pre-patching from last thread. Specifically trying to get Emerald to work. I actually found a solution - turns out for some reason the Lunar program that patches the 1.8 FireRed will not work with the Emerald version. I used the program linked on the Emerald homepage instead and it worked fine. Go figure...but anyway, that GPL program you linked looks terrific....if a Debian packager would adopt it that be even better.

>>9826332
thanks, this is great

>>9826332
>>9826509

Thankyoubasedtouhou.

>>9826509
I should have included something saying that Aichiya's should be patched with winips32a instead of Lips...

>>9826777
Unofficial extensions are the bane of patching formats, and exactly why, with its colorful history, IPS isn't fit for its job anymore.

on the subject of pokemon hacking, is it possible to make an script or ASM hack where there are items that do HM moves?

>>9826801
I've heard of hacks that do this, but don't know much about them.
I'm pretty sure it's possible, though.

just finished my hou-ho she isnt as great as my youmu though

in double battle they pretty much tear everything a new asshole

What kind of emulator is that?

>>9826857
Looks like a smartphone.

>>9822992
just use the Emerald Specific randomizer

sage for not related

wait, the vs. seaker doesn't work inside caves? Bullshit. Training for the E4 is going to be a pain in the ass

Hot spring area on One Island.

using a emulator for my asus transformer

THE LAW just kicked the crap out of Giovanni solo, and now I have the irresistable urge to watch Judge Dredd...

>>9827259

Ugh, Judge Dredd.
If you want the same type of setting but done decent, watch Hardware.

>>9827259

No disrespect to The Law
She looks great

>>9827259
Laying down THE LAW right there.

Is this at bump limit yet?

I'm starting on Norman now, Lolice finally evolved too. I was intending to go elemental sweeper with her but her stats are too balanced.

>>9826777
>>9826794
I was griping about that in a previous thread. His hack DOES go past 16MB, he really needs to use something else.

Also thanks Agastya for the beat option.

>>9828035
Yes bump limit, new one will appear soon I guess if it hasn't already.

Wow, was Tenma put together shoddily.
She's got high Sp Attack and really low Attack, but barely learns any useful non-physical stab moves. With her stats and typing, making her completely unable to learn Earth Power is ridiculous. At least give it to her through her egg list.
Ideally, Aeroblast should have been a flying-type special move. Having both Aeroblast and Thunderbolt the same typing is pointless.
Tenma's ideal moveset, for me, would be
Counter
Flying!Aeroblast
Earth Power
Roost

Out of curiosity does anyone have another thread in the works? I got the impression that someone did. If not I could take care of it and fix some of the things I originally fucked up/add links to the touhoumon hack pastebin, the mediafire collection, and perhaps add a more general mechanics FAQ pastebin. Don't want to step on any toes.

>>9829204
Doesn't seem to be. Go right ahead.
