It took a while, but she's finally ready to show the world how strong she really is. Nothing can stop her now. Except Medicine, that dang thing is annoying.

New infallible catching team:
Shizuha with:

Baton Pass

One, each, of tomboy and feminine Attack Keine with:
Attract

This team CANNOT FAIL. Now I just need to do some breeding...
Block onto Koakuma (assuming the database wasn't wrong about that one like it was about Shizuha)
Baton Pass onto Shizuha (I already know that one works)
False Swipe onto Keine

well shit, looks like my box full of koakumas is useless. ...Is it possible to trade between FR 1.8 and emerald 1.8?

>>9852605
Yes. There's a few compatibility clashes (TD, Shingyokus, some others I'm forgetting) but nearly all regular characters are compatible.

you literally do not need to use greentext to make this thread. please remake it without them.

misuse of the quote feature is considered spam, which is a bannable offense. don't try to act high and mighty because nobody wants to talk about this game on /v/ so you're forced to come here. this is an entirely different board, and bringing along your ``funny jokes and customs'' from that board isn't going to garner the same reaction from another.

>>9852631
Awesome. I swear though next run I'm going to do a nuzlocke, maybe it'll make me less pedantic

>>9853038

I too prefer the underwater theme in boxes above all the others. Beach theme is also not bad.

Why are there THMon generals all of a sudden? You even have links and everything. Strange as hell.

>>9853352
Welcome to /jp/. We tend to get interested in things out of nowhere.

>>9853352

Because they are Touhou and by design more interesting than even the new Pokemon games?

>>9852477

Most of the last thread: http://i.imgur.com/82iD7.jpg

4mb is just above the upload limit here

What were the main and rivals "default" names again? Starting a new playthrough, not feeling creative.

>>9853352
/jp/'s game-specific generals are like /v/, only with less... you know, /v/.

Any news on that version with a own story that takes place in Gensokyo?
It ended after the road of remorse and turned into normal boring touhoumon so I stopped there

Just starting playing these, and I have to say, I'm impressed with the soundtrack. All of the new songs fit the originals' tones perfectly.

Hmm, where does one find Kyouko in FR? Doesn't seem to be listed in the Touhoudex locations page

>>9854206
That's where they live, on top of mountains

>>9854136
On the highest floor of Mt. Silver and i will never understand why it's only there...

>>9854209
Then why not have it on Mt. Moon? It's completely useless if you get it right at the end of the game. It doesn't even have the stats to justify it's late appearance.

>>9854206

Thanks!
So, thats the same as Mt.Ember yes? That should go in the wiki if so

>>9854231
For SUSPENSION!

Another one missing from the location wiki: Seiga

where is she at...please don't tell me she is at the end too

I thought the Battle Factory would be the most annoying facility, but it is actually really fun.

Can I use regular FireRed cheat codes for this? I am not fucking with these slots, man.

>>9854543
She's in that one optional area which only unlocks after the Elite 4. You have to check one of the trucks in the harbor to reach it. You can't use a single TD char before finishing the Elite 4 in Aichiya's Fire Red hack.

Yuyuko, why must you have such an obscenely low encounter rate? I'd love to add you to my pre-National team, but I'm too OCD to use you with a Special Attack-cutting nature and I've only seen you twice in a hundred-odd battles.

>>9854543
Soga no Tojiko has a really stupid location, too: In the grass on Birth Island, which you can only unlock by beating Red at Mt. Silver. You have to beat the hardest boss in the game to get her. The only reason anyone would bother to get her is for completion, bragging rights, or rolling with a full Taoist party if you choose to do a New Game +.

Mamizou is on the ground in the waterfall room connecting Kanto and Johto, Yoshika is in the grass at the Ruins of Alph, Toyosatomimi no Miko is on the ground in the Dragon Cave in Johto, and Mononobe no Futo is in the Slowpoke Well. It's incredibly silly.

>>9854564
You can use them, yeah, but you'd best be cautious because there's always a chance of fucking everything up.

>>9854685
You can't even do a proper NG+ in FR without hacking in the National Dex since it's not enabled by default, since all the stones/PC98s/TD chars are outside of the Kanto dex. You can't just hack in the National Dex and be done with it either because then you run the risk of losing the normal E4 battles. FR is ridiculous.

>>9854726
You misunderstand, I think. There's a character in the Boneka Village you unlock after catching all the Boneka in the default dex, Anyway, if you speak with this character, she sends you back to Pallet Town without your badges, but you keep your 'dex and all your dolls and items.

At least, I think that's how it works.

It must really suck if you get a shiny rental Touhou. Want too keep that shiny Touhou? FUCK YOU, YOU CAN'T KEEP SHIT

>>9854726
How do you even hack the national dex?

BEHOLD

>>9854949
Nintendo made sure to give the player a really useless award for doing all that...

I really liked the Pokemon games. Is this woth picking up or is it just another shitty rom hack?

>>9855268
It's actually really well-done. It's better balanced, and I find that it's more difficult than the base Pokemon games without relying upon overleveled enemies or trainers with infinite Full Restores. The sprites are also good, so it's nice to look at.

>>9855268
Why don't you try it instead of posting about it, faggit?

>>9855355
Beacuse I tried the major rom hacks and they were awful. My time is important to me.

>>9852524

How do you get this? My heart stone isn't doing anything.

>>9852524
Gotta have the National Dex.

>>9855434

Okay, what is it?

>>9855424
Gotta get the national dex to unlock stone evolutions in FR.

Pic related, it's my way under-leveled team that pulled that off

>>9855441
Get it after beating the E4

where find cirno in blue?

>>9855389
Do you see this thread? Find a few more 350+ threads in the archive. What does that mean? Some people find it worthy enough to spend countless days on it. That should tell you everything you need to know.

What?

>>9855597
it's a 1.5 hack
>Designed to be very casual. Vanilla Kanto with HM roadblocks removed, the only
things stopping your progress are your team's levels and your ability to avoid
trainers. HM moves are buffed, sometimes drastically. Gameplay becomes very
broken in the player's favor, but broken in an enjoyable way.

>>9855534
That hack should've comes with a list of locations as well as a full dex. And you can also check your dex. But here, it's pretty early in even if you're not jumping ahead.

Also a quick word about Blue's dex, the base stats are incorrect: It's supposed to be Speed, SATK and SDEF, not SATK, SDEF and Speed.

>>9855446
I forget, but don't you also have to meet a quota of caught Touhous to get it?

>>9855553
To be fair you could argue that about Pokémon as well.

So I was looking at Locations.txt and it said you could encounter Chibi Letty in Shoal cave, but you can only encounter the evolved version, which it also says you can. I don't know which is supposed to be canonical, but it should be the same. I spent a little while trying to get a Chibi one so I could get Advent easily, but I guess I have to breed.

Who's better out of Hatate and Aya?

I really like the Emerald hack, but i don't think anyone will have the patience to capture 100+ cNue in hopes of getting enough Red UFO's for all the shards necessary to complete the Touhodex.

It's cool during normal play, but when going for 100% it really takes way too long.

>>9855973
Can't you buy shards?

>>9855979
Where? I've never seen anyone who sells them.

>>9855949

Depends on what you need, really. They're both good. I'd say Aya is more straightforward to use though.

>>9855949

Fuck, too much Earth and Beast on my team. Should I drop one?

>>9856150
If your're planning to use that team in Battle Frontier, you should change it or the A.I. will rape you once they play something strong against beast.

It should work during normal play for the most part if your other Touhous can cover their weaknesses.

>>9854567

Damn it Janet.
Oh well.

people do not speak like this aichiya

>>9856494
Is that a error or an emoticon?

>>9856502
That :something: is used on forums for some emotes, so probably that.

>>9856494
that makes it even worse

And on my first nuzlocke ever I run into my 5th shiny ever after I had already met something on the route. Fiddlesticks

I'm inclined to restart Emerald now, who are good for sweeping? Slow deathers take too long.

>>9856615
When shinies appear, self-imposed restrictions can go to hell.

>>9856615
And here I was regretting forgetting to give sunny a nickname. Guess that's one way to solve that problem.

>>9856615
It's ok, shiny Chen looks horrible anyway, because it's mouth becomes blue when it evolves. Someone did not think that trough when making the colour palletes.

Who is that supposed to be?

>>9856963
I think its suppose to be unknown. Its nowhere to be found but lets be honest. Do you really want an unknown?

Professor Birch is very generous. For completing the HOENN Region dex, he will let you pick 1 Touhou you already have...

>>9857061
That's one of the Johto starters, so it might've been nice in Emerald. Thankfully the good Touhoumon hacks got rid of that region-locked dex nonsense.

>>9856638
well roxanne went down easily enough. Horray for grinding, also stealing a lucky egg.

You guys are really making me want to play this, but...but...roms and emulators and stuff are scaaaaarrryy...

Scary? More like incredibly easy to use in 2012.

>>9855949
I'd go with Mystia myself. So classy~. Besides, Shadow Dive and Fly.

agastaya pls fix locations.txt shoal cave

How is an encounters list generated? Manually or through some tool?

>>9858623
Well, it's all in the ROM, so you could write a tool if you have the know-how to automate dumping this info, or you could do it by hand.

First time I managed to beat a gym on my first try. Thank goodness. I should probably change my team up since way too many members of my team are weak to one type or another. Eventually.

>>9858152
I guess, but...roms and emulators feel like a sort of pandoras box to me. If I start using them, the video games are never going to stop, and I'll never get anything done, not that I get that much done anyway.

>>9858590
It's accurate, though. Chibi Letty probably could stand to have a spawn rate increase since only on the first floor though, it was a last minute thing.

>>9858623
I generally write them in notepad while assigning/viewing spawns.

>>9858650
Obviously it's in the ROM. I was wondering how easy it would be to write something to export all of that data, and whether that was already done.

>>9858684
OK manually.

>>9858590

Or what about fixing Native --> Nature

captcha: lettcge monks

It's better to raise a balanced team of Pokemon rather than just focusing on one or two, they said.

I wish I'd realized what bullshit that was when I was ten.

>>9858730
Good luck finding information about data structures, ROM offsets and so on. All Pokemon tools are closed-source, too.

So I ended up not paying attention and misnamed her. But it's kinda cute. I'm conflicted.

>>9858850
Only because level grinding sucks. Otherwise I'd rather have six with a range of types that are 20 levels higher than the opposition.

>>9858876
Name rater is in Lavender (Kanto), or Slateport (Hoenn) if you want to fix it.

>>9858873
That's what I was expecting. Sad.

>>9858876

>Adamant special-attacker

>>9858908 Otherwise I'd rather have six with a range of types that are 20 levels higher than the opposition.

But the thing is that it wouldn't even make all that much difference. When your not-very-effective moves are 1HKOing all comers anyway, it doesn't really matter whether you have one or twenty. PP can be an issue, but two or three at the most is more than enough to never run out.

>>9858908

I know about the Name Rater. I dunno if I want to. It's kind of an endearing name but not what I meant to happen.

>>9858913

I was actually going for Brave, but I'm fine with Adamant. Gonna evolve her to Defense form and beat people up like that. Yes I know her special attack is better, I'm doing it anyways because it feels right.

>>9858960

>Playing from the heart

Ash Ketchum would be proud

Jesus fuck. What is Keine's encounter rate in Routes 24 and 25? I haven't run across one there in 3 playthroughs. I just want to break the game early.

Are there any IV calculators that let you just plug your own values in rather than having to find six real Pokemon with the same DVs in each particular stat?

>>9858684
Oh, I didn't know you updated, I'm sorry.

>>9859238
Try Shoddy Touhoumon's team builder.

>>9859238
>>9859588
Pfeh. You young'uns and yer fancy "tools". Real men calculate their IVs by hand! In the snow, while walking uphill both ways!

>>9859610
With their pants down and jumping on one leg, while they play flute with one hand and spin a finger counterclockwise with the other?

Bampu pantsu.

>>9859055
She's pretty damn rare. Not Yuyuko rare, but still. If you get sick of looking she's more common in some other routes

>>9858960
I'm not sure why she's special-oriented. Attack would be more fitting I think.

>>9858850
Stomping the entire game with Eiki? There's a joke somewhere in there.

>>9859588
I've got to try this.

Can the touhous breed in these hacks?

>>9860263
Yeah but they do it ironically.

>>9860263
I always ``ironically'' breed Reimu with Marisa.

Alright...now what?

>>9860364
ReSTART~O with a new team. Some sort of theme, maybe. Someone did an all-red team and an all-blue team before. You could also go with an all-fairy team. You could even catch some awesome Touhou and trade it to your new game for double XP and shit.

>>9860364
Both Emerald and FireRed hacks have a bunch of post-game shit.

>>9860220

I don't get why she's special oriented either. I also don't like how shallow her movepool is either. No boosting moves besides Iron Defense, little variety in attacks. That's not gonna stop me though.

>>9860488

>>9861469
I've not seen an all red team

>>9861471
I think someone mentioned he was going to make it in and earlier thread, and he had the AUDACITY to not include Orin in his team. What shameless scum!

>>9861471
Which touhoumon is this

wait...what?

we Cold War now?

>>9862561
There's also a reference to South America in the pokemon lab on cinnabar. I'm surprised they didn't retcon all that in the remakes.

The idea of the main Pokemon series being in the 70s would be a great idea. Parrallel it with the Chess matches of the time....picture it: a Pokemon adaptation of Searching for Bobby Fisher with Ash instead.

>>9860276

Are there any guides or faqs on this? Seems like it'd be a headache going in blind.

>>9862984
Breeding? Bulbapedia has the general information. You can find move lists and egg moves and other stuff documented either with the different hacks or on the Touhou wiki.

...uh thanks, but you taught me Spikes not Thunder Wave >_>

>>9863326
derp

Stuff like this makes me feel fuzzy.

>>9863326
>>9863332
Did the move tables get rearranged or something?

>>9863389

That or perhaps its a bug.

Some shinies in this game look really cool

I come with gifts /jp/

I'm sure there are some of you min/max-ers out there who are absolutely autistic about the best IV and EV spread you could possibly have, or annoyed by having touhous whose stats aren't up to par with frontier facilities (x4 hitting moves not OHKOing off a 140 base stat for instance)

but not all of you want to cheat for it or go through the long ass effort of chainbreeding higher and higher IVs

or RNGing for a perfect IV ditto/kedama to make it easier

oh wait.

Here is a batch of perfect IV kedamas for every nature that matters! The atttacking natures are regular and the defensive ones are shinies. Everstones for passing nature not included.

http://www.mediafire.com/?0gkkendh3sl5k5a

trade over using VBAlink or something.

Happy Breeding!

>>9863510
oh shit, this is awesome, thanks.

>>9863510
daaaaaang

>>9863510
Are those Kedama hacked, or were you actually autistic enough to collect/breed them all?

>>9863590

>implying playing pokemon/hacks isn't already autistic

>>9863839
Who are you qouting?

>>9863590
I'll let you decide after you see the only pokemon in that file's party

Is it just me, or does Reisen kinda suck in PPE? Now that my three fairies evolved, she's really falling behind in usage.

>>9863929
Evolved Reisen is understandbly underhwelming.

cReisen can be when compared with early evolvers.

Once you go AdvReisen though.

You'll never go back.

>>9863510

Which version is this for FireRed or Emerald? Looks suggest Em..

>>9863967
Emerald, do not care for the available firered hacks right now besides the soft translated version.

pretty sure you can trade this to firered with national deck though.

Reminder to breeders: Normally in regular pokemon breeding a male with a ditto cannot result in anything but a male. This is NOT the case in Touhoumon.

>>9852477
video games go to /v/

is "touhou puppet play enhanced 1.8.1" the most recent version? and can i catch the new touhous? i saw someone say you can get kyouko on mount silver,.. but that isn't in firered

>>9864030
Puppet Play enhanced is indeed the latest english FE release. It happens to have a few more postgame extra areas which include mt silver.

However all the TD touhous are postgame.

If you would like to catch the TD cast during the maingame, look into playing the Emerald Version

>>9863940
When do you get the National Dex? After 60 records?

>>9864071
Emerald starts you off with national/doesn't lock your evolutions even if you don't have national [legacy versions]

Firered's National Dex is postgame and as such locks you from stone/alt evolutions until postgame, with the exception of AKeine

why did they change the music? i like the old pokemon sounding ones better...

>>9864095
Well that sucks. Any suggestions for something to replace Reisen? Running the three fairies + Momiji with fairly good success right now (at Celadon).

>>9864134
Reisen isn't that bad when she evolves, it's just that her evolution is relatively late (lv36) compared to other things you have access to.

>>9863984
>Normally in regular pokemon breeding a male with a ditto cannot result in anything but a male.
That's bullshit. Gender rate is determined by species, even if breeding with Ditto. Some species have a 90:10 spread, so you might only receive males because females are very rare.

Eh

>>9864119
Rule #1 about music in your hack: Replace all the original music with EPIC AND LOUD REMIXES you like. You like them so everyone else must like them too, right? Who cares if they don't fit the situation or get butchered by the sound chip? Bonus points are rewarded for songs with vocals.

>>9864250
gym battles is the worst i've seen so far, seeing vocals in your post really scares me

>>9864250
To be fair I kinda like the tunes in the original jp rom

the arranges A-TTTempo made [which I presume is where they ripped the comps. form] are fairly nice too, and don't suffer from the terrible high notes the port'ed ones have.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW2ss6ShidE

I was kinda mad when I boot'd up enhanced the music that played vs your rival was... replaced.

>>9864273
There are some Touhoumon versions with vocals during the champion battle. Better turn on your own music during that fight...

>>9864273
The only vocal track is at the end of it, and it's actually fitting.
The only thing that annoyed me was one way-too-loud battle track.

>>9864302
Well, the music from the original hacks was Touhou songs remixed in Pokemon GBA style, which really fits. In most of the unnofficial hacks it's just "Random Faith Is for the Transient People Remix #735" and other stuff. Love Coloured Master Spark must also always be included.

>>9864323

I really like the way they took care to make sure each remix fit the tone and soundfont of the piece it was replacing.

eh, I generally like the music in PP enhanced. I don't have much love for pokemon music outside of D/P though. I was even fine with that singular vocal track. Can't say I understand the love for love colored master spark however.

>>9865094
Actually I take that back about the vocal track; after listening to it again it quickly becomes annoying. GBA molestation isn't kind to voices.

Playing with music implies playing at 1x speed. Frankly, that's no good. I couldn't care less about the music, since I always disable it as soon as I hit the speedup button.

And Wild Mima is caught!
Only took 84 ball tosses.
This makes me feel bad for the people playing the legit way (as in, not abusing the save state for captures/playing on an actual GBA).

>>9865634
>playing on an actual GBA
I don't even think that's possible

What the FUG learns Flash? Literally nothing in my box or party can learn flash. I don't want to stumble around Rock Tunnel.

UO gpSP kai 3.4 test 3, build 92 is my emulator...what about you? Never tried any others as this one has been quite stable.

>>9866909
Not him but I use the same emulator you do.
I've tried a few others but I come back to kai because it works well and I don't have to fuck with it.

It's nice playing a gameboy game on a handheld rather than having it tied down to the computer.

>>9866909
Emulating the same shit through the Vita and it works fine. Tried gpSP-J but I disliked having to switch up use of O and X and the speedup function was shit anyways

>>9866937
Nice.

Yeah, most handheld games I try to play on handhelds as I never adapted to doing the same on a pc. appropriate nm

>>9866553
Alice can evolve into GRIMDARK OC Alice, who has 140 Special Attack and is Dark/Reason type.

You can solo a lot of stuff with her

>>9867011
Dark Alice hurts.

>>9864161
I have heard this about Male/Ditto relations, but now I can't find anything regarding it. I do know that it doesn't work on the species' wild appearance spread like you say it does, though. It's a straight fifty-fifty chance for either gender with each egg.
Still gonna keep looking for where I heard about males and dittos only producing males.

>>9867027
you on emerald?

>>9866909
I was the guy you were replying to, yeah I use it too.

If I have CAlice, CSatori, AKeine and Lunachild as my team should I go with Yoruhime or Toyohime?

>>9867268
look at their respective touhoudex pages and see which you like more? Personally I went with Toyohime and she was my MVP. Great defense + yawn + calm mind is p cool.

It really bugs me that Pikachu is still in the intro. How can this be remedied?

>>9867268
Yorohime because Water/Ground types are a dime a dozen.

Steel/Faith not so common

>>9856971
Yeah. 26 spell cards. Bring it on.

Tedious grindfest, I like it.

I'm currently trying >>9858850 it's definitely a lot faster to play like that, but also riskier, depending on who you're using at least.

I had heard that they were high level, but I wasn't expecting THAT high, much less for that asshole master to come at you like any old trainer. Fortunately I had two intimidate users and was able to pacify yorohime while toyohime fell to quad nature weakness.

EV items are postgame I think. Not sure really. FR makes EV training easy though, pic related.

>>9868439
Heh, I'm a bit masochistic. But honestly, it's actually not so bad, and after the 3rd badge, it becomes significantly less of a grindfest. The only problems are with Yumemi and Satori (dear god, double battle against those every rival fight) and random Sanae with that frustratingly annoying typeset, who really thrash my team. The rest of the enemies aren't that bad, especially with powerhouse Orin on the team.

Also, do I get the nat'l dex after I beat the elite four? It's bothering me because I have CTenshi, CYuyuko, and CShinki, but I can't evolve them until I get the nat'l dex. ;_;

>>9868725
Ahahaha, is that seriously the first part of the Cycling Road? That'll make things easier than slaughtering 200+ Wriggles and shit.

>>9868725
>>9868669
What EV items are you talking about? Because you can get vitamins fairly early on, and the Macho Brace somewhat early (Emerald) or somewhat late (FireRed). Pokérus, good luck with that.

>>9868734
AFAIK that only applies to Aichiya's FireRed hack. Corrections welcome.

>>9868734
And as a side-question, do the EV reduction berries exist in FireRed or in any of the hacks?

>>9868756
The held items that give you +5EV to whatever stat it's associated with.

>>9868781
Those didn't exist until Gen 4.

>>9868758
Those berries didn't exist until Emerald. You can't reset EVs in FR until you can access to the Egg Hatcher on Four Island.

>>9868439
As awesome as that would be for unknown replacements they would have to be same color if i remember correctly unless someone can make the unknowns load separate colors, its sadly not gonna work out how people would want it.

>>9868790
Thanks for clearing that up for the guy that skipped GenIII entirely.

>>9868727
Some hacks give you the national dex at the beginning, if not, then it's probably the same as the original: Beat the Elite Four, do the initial Sevii islands questing, and capture 60 Touhous.

Um...

>>9868999
Um what? CReimu. Not CReisen.

>>9868999
That's no CReimu, you know.

>>9869049
It says the CReisen was 'met in a trade' so he probably received that instead of the "Hakurei" the NPC was offering.

>>9869012
>>9869049
Oh, gosh. I made a dumbdumb.
Didn't look that close at the name.

>using repels in the Mansion on Cinnabar Island
>doesn't stop CParsees from pestering

annoying.

>>9869392
I think you need to be higher level for repels to work?

Pros: Plenty of room for HM slaves. Cons: They turn into exp. leeches in double battles, or when dragged out by Whirlwind. I can't wait to get her sister.

>>9869405
Repel only stops Touhous that are below the level of the first Touhou in your party.

>>9869405
I dunno..the highest one thats spawned was lvl 38 and my highest boneka is lvl 43. I'm not floored by them, just very annoyed.

>>9869532
haha, Surfboard

When will my CYuugi evolve into normal Yuugi?

>>9869550
You're almost there.

>>9869550

Level 38

>>9869550
L38. But check what the stone evolutions are first and see if they interest you. Also this is on the Touhou wiki.

>>9869546
STAR SURFBOARD.

>>9869532
I like your nicknames. You're a good person.
>>9869550
You should disable that pixel filter, it looks horrible.

>>9869532
bwahaha, nice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHdZQ0Z_5RM&feature=plcp

can anyone tell me why and how this guy got a little remi walking behind him?

some of his videos have cirno there instead too...

>>9869790
The tree's sprite looks somewhat funny.

>>9869849
Speaking of funny tree sprites, I just came across this. Thankfully it's not a bug, it's one of those ninja kids.

>>9869732
>good
Come on, Star's is a little mean.

>>9869790
Do they do anything besides follow you around? That'd be a nice touch either way.

A "bad egg" froze my game and I lost several hours of progression.

Welp, that was a fun journey into touhoumon, I'll never do it again unless there's some magical way to obtai nunlimited rare candies so I can boost back up to where I was..

>>9870130
Too be more detailed.

I lost my level 44 Kyouko and Momiji, my 50 TSanae, My Yuugi dropped from level 56 to 34, I've only got 3 badges now AND I don't have my Seiga/Reimu anymore.

>>9870130
Are you playing on an actual GBA or some shit? Why not use savestates? I actually did lost a shitton of progress when I accidentally wiped my memory stick without backing it up to the computer first, though. From a balanced, even level team with handpicked natures around level 40 to starting form scratch hurts.

>>9870138
You should explain a little more. What emulator? What hack? What were you doing before you lost it?

>>9870152
>>9870154
I'm just playing on visual boy, Emerald Hack.

I was scrolling through my Puppets to put in daycare when I got a black silhouette called BAD EGG. It's type was ??? and the description said "This will take a long time to hatch" - Received from DAY CARE couple or something like that.

But it just totally locked up my game and fried half of my save states.

>>9870159
Bad Egg comes from a Pokémon with an invalid checksum apparently, and can induce problems such as a game freeze. I do find it questionable that your earlier save states got ruined, maybe your ROM is bad?

>>9870186
Possibly, I'm going to repatch and just start fresh anyway. I already know the ins and outs, so If i can tolerate everything up to flannery again I should be alright.

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Bad_Egg

>>9870189
If you didn't before, use the optional beat patch instead. It can verify the input/output files were patched correctly.

>>9870152

>>9865702
How do you make it look so smooth and not pixelated?

>>9870189
What I did was refuse to use 2hu that I had in my party before to keep it fresh. Kinda gimped me, but i'm almost back to where I was!

>>9870444
Scailing filters. Looks like Scale2x or hq2x.

Consult your emulator's README file for more information.

*scaling pixel art sprites with anything other than nearest neighbor*

>>9870444
Are you saying you don't use GBA antialiasing?

>>9870480
Why the flip would you? It's pixel art. Every pixel has been carefully placed with love. Line art, shading, palette and colour choices right down to the pixel level, and you're ruining that because you think a low resolution game should be in HD.

This is Mario. You can scale him up to any size like this, he is still Mario. You do not need to add curves or more colours. He will continue to be Mario at any resolution. Don't ruin Mario.

>>9870480
I don't know.

How do I use it?

>>9870534
>>9870494
I was joking. I doubt there is anti-aliasing for GBA emulators.

>>9870547
There kind of is:
http://www.hiend3d.com/hq2x.html

Is Ran decent? Her stats seem kind of wonky. High attack and sp attack? Never really got into Pokemon before, so forgive me if i'm missing something but wouldn't you want one or the other?

>>9870687
You could go for either one. Or even mixed. Mixed is useful against walls that specialize in either def or sdef, in which case you would use the type that does most damage (physical against sdef tanks, special against def tanks).

>>9870707
Ah okay. So a neutral nature would be best for something like that?

>>9870771

Neutral nature isn't advisable in any situation. For Ran, you'd want a defense lowering nature if you're going mixed.

Finishing the whole Kanto Dex in Puppert Play Enhanced let's you stat a new game+ right? Or was it some other version that had a new game+?

Huh. As i'm doing Fuschia gym, the music starts messing up. Like little bits of cracking and fuzz. Wasn't too bad at first, but as i'm going along it gets worse to the point that after beating the gym(thank you based Mama Ran and Tremor) and leaving, the music is all fucked up. Is this common?

>>9871042
Yeah, It sometimes happens.
Either load a previous savestate or just wait for it to stop eventually.

>>9870801
Fuck I recognize some of those names. Good times. Also see >>9854742

>>9870687
as others have said mixed can help break through walls. I don't know much about touhoumon, but in Pokemon Infernape is a great example of one. It has a high power physical fighting attack to knock out the premier special wall (blissey) and special fire stab to hit the more defensive steel types.

That said I don't think mixed works as well in touhoumon. There's no life orb which sucks, and things being more balanced and spread out across the board also makes it more difficult.

>>9871071
>>9871042
Whew. Saving and reloading(as in the actual game and not savestates) seemed to have fixed it. Was getting scared for a minute, actually like the music.

Is there any point to using Hidden Power on a Ran? The guy on Two Island taught it to me but it seems kinda meh (just a boomerang attack)

Was thinking of putting Brick Break in its place...also, the wiki doesn't list it: http://thpp.supersanctuary.net/wiki/Ran
but its certainly learnable

>>9874589
>Two Island

Thats because the wiki is probably for the Emerald Hack and not the FR one

speaking of FR, can I get Orange before the Elite 4? wiki says Three Island Port but theres nothing there to trigger encounters. already did the quest for the lost girl too..

2spooky

Also, what should I level as my water type. Nitori or Komachi?

>>9875354
Nope, you can't.
Did you see that cave near the entrance to the port? There's a guy there digging for gold. After you beat E4, he'll dig all the way through, and you'll be able to catch Orange in the bushes on the other side of it.

>>9875503
Box it and leave it the fuck alone. And Nitori is generally the better choice for water.

>>9874912
Two Island is part of the Sevii Islands, a new side area in FireRed and where most of the post-E4 bits are.

>>9875503
what the hell did you do to the poor game

Any chance to randomize the encounters in Emerald, but keep the evolution level identical? I hate starting new games because I will inevitably use the same Touhou again and again, so randomizing seems like a good idea, but I kind of don't want to find alternate evolutions on Route 101.

Is it just me or do these games feel really unpolished? Don't get me wrong. They're fun to play but I just can't help but feel that they're pretty shoddy and rushed. Like they spent time trying to make as many games as they can instead of just working on one until it's perfect.

Assuming they're made by one person.

>>9875546
Figured something like that might be it. Drat.

What are the recommended puppets to catch with a Lunatic ball in both FR & Emerald?

>>9878766
basically use the master ball anything that moves around the world maps aka Shingyoku forms.

Shingyoku huh? Hmm.

This Tucker right here.

They're not kidding about the whole Perfect and Invincible thing...

>>9877266
Is there a randomizer that even does that? Even if there were it probably wouldn't work as intended with any of the hacks, unfortunately.

>>9877475
The 1.5 games are pretty rough from what I've played. FR 1.8 seems pretty polished I think and has some nice bells and whistles. Emerald 1.8 isn't as "shiny" but has better gameplay. Which ones have you played?

>Summit of Mt. Ember
Chibi Kyouko 5
Mima 50 Legendary

How can I find Kyouko if there is no place to fight at the top? Will the nature power ability work?

>>9879476
>Which ones have you played?

The Marisa one.
Another World
Emerald

>>9879647
Are their touhoumon hacks for any of the DS games?

Or is that still in development?

I love the portabilty of a playing on a psp...look what I caught while on the shitter

>>9879647
give FR 1.8 a brief go and see if you like it better. It's probably the most polished overall of the bunch..

>>9879699
I don't know of any DS hacks unfortunately. Is that hacking scene progressed enough to do that kind of thing?

>>9879728
>playing touhoumon on the shitter. I am envious. Also ran is awesome.

>>9879841

the $129 I spent for a psp was one of the best investments ever. using custom firmware = emulating almost every game you could want outside of ds & ps2 games

>>9879592
Any clarification on this? I'd rather not hike back to the top of Mt.Ember to try nature power if it won't actually work

>>9879833

Will do.

>>9879699
Nobody cares enough to hack the DS games this extensively anymore since we have the Phys/Spec split in 3rd gen games.

Personally, I think the FR hack sucks big time. Sure, it is about the only 1.8 hack that has somewhat of a coherent ``Touhou'' story line and relevant text substitution, but on the other side, you have to make do with horrible Engrish, boring fights and a very hackish postgame. Oh, and Boneka. Dem Boneka, man.

>>9879972
Eh, my impressions are that the Engrish is neglible and funny more often than not. Most gym leaders have been fun. Overall fights are more interesting than vanilla FR because of the balance & spilts. Can't comment on post-game yet

>>9853038
You inspired me to finally play this. Doing a nuzlocke run. Got 2 Tokikos, Reisen, and Sunny for the first gym...

>>9879592
>>9879876

Unless i'm mistaken, given all the attempts I tried in these two spots with Nature Power, it looks like shes not there

I don't think I've had this much fun with a pokemon game since Gold. The new typing system is a bit of a hoot to figure out.

>>9880123
You crazy, man. What are ya gonna do with TWO of those ugly Tokiko, man?

>>9880508
Shelve one when I get something new and exciting, but... I suppose I'll likely be at the second gym by that point.

>>9880508
Actually, those Tokiko were hella useful against Brock. With their type resistance, Yuugi couldn't one-shot them, and they had their accuracy all the way lowered and then paralyzed by stomp so they were hardly a threat.

>>9880209
I think in puppet play enhanced she's on mt. silver instead? It may have been changed around, dunno. Try ctrl+f her name in this thread and the previous ones

.>>9880236
it really does make things more interesting

>>9877266
>>9879476
I don't imagine it would be too hard to make intelligent substitution like that, so Chibis with Chibis and so on. And actually where are these randomizers?

>>9877475
Lots of different hackers, lots of different versions. There is variation in quality, and completedness, and generally what goals it has.

>>9881328
Is she masturbating?

any tips on who to battle for exp gain with exp share & vs seeker? are the guys on the bikes on route 15 still the best option?

>>9881444
I just used the highest level trainers for the area.

>>9881388
Look at the first or second reply in this thread.
>>9881426
In my imagination, she is.
>>9881444
Depends on the hack you're using. In Emerald, you're often best off by leveling in the grass, and moving on to the next area when experience starts to dwindle.

>>9881465
Fire Red for clarification

>>9881444
Unless you're EVing, anywhere there's a trainers with high level Touhous bunched together will do. Try the Sevii Islands too, depending on the hack they might be at high levels.

>>9881465
Also I really wish Emerald had the Vs. Seeker. Match Call just doesn't compare to an item that makes everyone on the screen do the battle dance.

>>9881465
Closed source. Worthless.

>>9881577
the lack of vs seeker is the exact reason i decided to increase the exp rates on wilds. getting ~600 exp per kill off wilds was far better than 250.


also mai

>>9881465
If you got the national dex, you can go to Johto in Fire Red, trainers over the can be re-fought again and again just by talking to them. Their teams stay the same.

>>9881444
one island is pretty good I found. Fight the swimmers for special EVs and the fighters for Att/HP. Also save yourself some misery and steal a lucky egg from a tewi in three island. Tewi herself learns thief, just catch one and level her up real quick, she'll evolve immediately.

>>9881426
you're the second person to mention this. I'm going to go with yes slut blah blah kill me

>>9881577
https://code.google.com/p/pokemon-randomiser/

this one is open but I don't know how well it works

How hard is touhoumon?

>>9881599
She's doing the battle dance. And leveling does seem a fair bit better than in the originals, which I appreciate.

>>9881693
I'm only interested if it helps document things like the encounter lists, and actually that looks like a good starting point, thanks!

>>9881718
I haven't played a Pokemon game since like RSE and even then I was young and didn't pay attention to things like nature and EVs. With a little reading up i'm going through fine.

>>9881742
Alright thank you

>>9881693
>https://code.google.com/p/pokemon-randomiser/

Hmmm, got a Incompatible ROM message when I tried to patch a new download of Leaf Green. Damn.

>>9881769
It scans the ROM from 0xa0 to 0xac and expects to read POKEMON LEAF in there. Might want to check how your ROM differs.

>>9881838
I'm getting the same problem with FireRed and Emerald, both match No-Intro, and both should also satisfy that check.

>>9881872
The detection appears to be broken. While I cannot really see why (Arrays.copyOfRange(header, 0xa0, 0xac) sounds sensible to me), the debugger shows that the resulting string is REBPRE01?. Some byte off here. Maybe Arrays.copyOfRange(header, 0x96, 0xa1) would do the trick.

Funny thing is, when I open my ROM with a hex editor, it shows POKEMON at 0xa0 too. Fucking Java can't into binary.

>>9881931
Actually, screw that. API suggests that FileReader is meant for reading character streams, not raw binary data. FileReader probably converts some bytes into Unicode text, which might fuck up the offsets.

Seeing this, I wouldn't be too surprised to see that the whole damn thing doesn't work for shit.

>>9881939
Oh, look, I fixed it: https://gist.github.com/3892578
Not that anyone would care.

>>9881939
The starter Touhou offsets for FR are at least correct so it might at least know where everything is, and that's all I'm really concerned with. I'm actually trying to document stuff in the ROM.

>>9881957
Don't say that.

>>9881957
>https://gist.github.com/3892578

Hurray!
Hope it gets patched in soon.

>>9881983
Good luck. There are some data structures here [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_data_structure_in_Generation_III] that might help you with the correct offsets at hand.

That leader of Fortree city had a Tenma. I have enver seen a wild Tenma. Are they in the game?

>>9882032
I believe you can evolve it with some stone and CAya in Emerald: http://lkaexe.supersanctuary.net/thmnemer18/usefulthings/Stone%20Evolutions.txt

>>9882040
Thanks!

Bampu pantsu.

Kirisame and her groupies chilling in the hall of fame. Isn't redhead Kaguya cute?

Black team is next.

I want to shoot whoever set the encounter rate for Yuyuko that low. Took me over an hour of running around and running away to find just one.

>>9882815
oh shit yes

>>9882876
I got sick of searching and I was using 6x speedup

Can you actually catch the Great Catfish without the National Dex?

How am I supposed to get past Sabrina in FireRed with that fucking level 49 APatchouli?

>>9883749
She has very high Special Defense but weak Defense and Speed. So use something fast with a hard-hitting physical attack and she's dead.

>>9883434
Yes you can. I caught one in the Safari Zone and only had maybe 30 or so boneka at the time.

>>9883794
coincidentally..

>>9882876
I had less a problem finding her than trying to find/steal a Lucky Egg

>>9883812
I guess the encounter rate must be pretty low on that one. Or do you need to be in a specific area?

>>9882876
5 Yuyukos so far all of them tomboys...

>>9884029
Not sure about the areas, but I stuck to this one spot for about 2 hours and finally caught mine.

>>9884056
Literally the first one I saw..

>>9883749
AKeine tears it a new asshole

>>9884106
forgot pic

>>9884056
holy shit you're still at it?

also was it just me or was bruno pretty hard?

>>9884116
Nah i already caught her.

>>9884068
>about 2 hours
Oh fuck me. I'll never get the Japanese obsession with extremely low rates. It doesn't make things harder, just more tedious and stupid.

>>9885334
Well by comparison it seems a small investment of time compared to the amount i've put in trying to steal/find a Lucky egg from a CTewi on Three Island >_>

>>9885612
man, really? I found mine in like 25 and in maybe 7 in emerald

>>9885670
I've spent at least 5 hours total (2.5 last night and about the same so far today). Fucking bad luck? I'm just running back and forth in the farthest northeastern corner of the berry forest. The encounter rate for the CTewi is really good but all are nadda, or if they are level 30 then my thief kills them totally.

>>9885725
>Fucking bad luck?

sounds like it. Also I don't think it matters if you end up fainting the pokemon in the process. I highly doubt this is the case but do be sure the pokemon using thief isn't holding an item. Won't work otherwise. Oh yeah, there's some terrible joke here about tewi and luck. Fuck me for even thinking about that.

>>9885805
>but do be sure the pokemon using thief isn't holding an item

Ohfuckme if this is the problem. I had an item on the entire time...*crosses fingers*

Yesssssss...finally got a Rucky Egg!

In addition, all this work with Mima as thief has yielded her going from lvl 50 to 54. But whew, so glad thats over.

I got a support shard early in the emerald 1.8, are there other shards to find before getting to the hunters house?

>>9886217
I believe that is the first. One of the .txt files should have more information on the remaining shards.

Well shit. Marisa is no longer Fire/Thunder. Probably would have been better off going for Reimu

>>9886189
W-what EVs do CTewis give?

>>9886642
1 Speed. Good luck

>>9886642
Hm, well I hadn't given it much thought really. If you want to hazard a guess i'm all ears. I had a savestate from when I captured her, so heres her stat breakdown before and after Tewi-fication.

Quirky nature fyi

>>9886716
Unrelated, but are the legendaries actually good?

>>9886722
Well, i'm enjoying her more than the fossils i've aquired so far but thats just personal preference. Mima is the only legendary I have acquired so far and so I can't venture a knowledge opinion either way really...perhaps someone who is post-game could give a insight?

I got Shadow Dive in the emerald hack, but I can't teach it to any of my Puppets.

Anyone know a puppet that CAN learn it?

My Yuyuko, Youmu, Yoshika and all my water puppets can't learn it.

>>9886759
Nue.

>>9886759
Murasa?

So I put my Tojiko and Keine in the Day care and cycled back and forth for at least 50 minutes.

And when I finished and got them back out of the Day-care, I accidentally hit F1.

Fuck everything.

>>9887229
Feel I should, I'm about to start over again, I've that much time to burn.

Where's a good place for cycling? I usually just go up and down the road in Mauville.

>>9887229
I'm almost positive you'd be better off just normally leveling.

>>9887258
Tojiko went from about level 30 to 67
Keine from about 34 to 69

>>9887229
Doesn't that screw with the EV values? Sounds like excellent leveling if not.

unrelated underleveled Yoshika defeating Wallace.

>>9887267
Did they up the Daycare exp? Last I knew it was 1 EXP a step.

HMystia does bad things to my heart.

She is my flier, I don't care what anyone says.

>>9887308
Is that the kind of Mystia Winona has? It's cute.

>>9887343

>>9887347
Good choice of ball.
