We have a new 1.0.10 update now live! This is likely to be the final YL update for the foreseeable future, unless some gamebreaking bug is found. Never say never, but we are happy with the current state of the game and don't feel it needs any more significant additions. The new patch is in the 1.0.10 link in the description. Old saves SHOULD work fine, however please save in a pokecenter before updating otherwise you risk corrupting your save. You should again patch your own legally acquired CLEAN BASE YELLOW ROM, do NOT apply the patch to an already patched Yellow Legacy ROM. Please be smart, take a backup of your save before updating just to be safe. New Patch: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZIWtHvyn51snAM4lFJEyuDyLrLt-TF-i?usp=drive_link Patcher: www.marcrobledo.com/RomPatcher.js/ PSA: Before you get started patching anything, load your base yellow ROM into rom patcher js (or a hash checker) and check the SHA-1 hash. The base yellow hash should be SHA-1: cc7d03262ebfaf2f06772c1a480c7d9d5f4a38e1. If it is not exactly this, you have a modified or bootleg yellow ROM and you will have to find a real one. Similarly the hash of your 1.0.10 patched ROM should be SHA-1: 2ac87de42afc70ef6016805acb3b206644417f97, again if this is not exactly this, you have done something wrong and should repatch. Changelog 1.0.3: - Fixed trade pokemon crash when not on hard mode - Fixed mixed up HP and attack on DV screen - Multiple-level-up learnset skipping bug fix - Reverted Viridian Gym's music to base, and made the unused song giovanni's encounter music - This fixes the TM and sound bugs in viridian gym - Seafoam Islands' palette doesn't change to cave when you talk to pikachu - Fixed Oak's lab pokeball gift typo from base game - Persian can learn cut - Nidoking and Nidoqueen get dig as a level 1 move, so you can use the move reminder to re-obtain it later - Doduo sprite - Fixed a bug with type effectiveness - Fixed daycare normal mode bug - Meowth and Persian get cut - Switched bug catcher texts on route 9 to match their teams - Fuchsia fossil mon flag doesn't get set if you don't have box space - If this bug happened to you before, unfortunately it can't be reversed. You can however fish both fossil mons in Seafoam Islands B4F with a Super Rod. - Touch ups for mr mime, kangaskhan and doduo overworld sprites - Route 14 hm text modified - Psywave does between 100% and 150% the user's level - Exeggutor and Exeggcute get mega drain via tm - X items, dire hit and guard spec added to celadon mart 5f marts - DV screen doesn't break cinnabar gym anymore - If this issue happened to you already, fighting a trainer/rematching blaine inside of cinnabar gym will fix it Changelog 1.0.9 - Fixed evolution level up moveset bug - Razor wind item description fixed - Fixed neeed typo - Fixed eeveelution in champions room rematch - Fixed large decrement underflow if on 10 - Changed easy/hard mode messages to start with "Are you sure?" - Gastly poison gas to 23 - Vermilion trash puzzle resets when you leave the gym - Erika 4 victreebel gets stun spore - Fixed super rod encounters showing wrong locations on the pokedex area page - Fixed buffer overflow bug with pokedex old/good rod encounters - Fixed exp all party display bug - Fixed Fuchsia signs displaying pokedex move page - Fixed a bug where the oak catching pikachu scene breaks boxes - Switched badge boost text in gyms that were wrong - Fixed item description for flamethrower tm Changelog 1.0.10: - Fixed Viridian Gym music bug after speaking to Giovanni post battle - Exeggcute and Exeggutor now learn dream eater by TM - Cubone and Marowak now learn swords dance by TM - Ndorina gets Sludge and Earthquake to closer match Nidoqueen - Move parity changes with CL: - Fury attack 15bp to 18 - Dig 15pp to 20 - Fury swipes 15pp to 20 - Ice beam to 10pp to 15 - Psychic to 10pp to 15 - Double edge to 10pp to 15 - Egg bomb 10pp to 15 - Sky attack 5pp to 10 - Explosion 130bp to 250 - Selfdestruct 170bp to 200 - Credit rjd1922 - Corrected Trainer Tips description of Guard Spec. - Fixed a sign in the Area 1 of the Safari Zone mistakenly labeling it as "Central Area". - Made PP restoring items account for PP Ups used - Fixed assuming all transformed Pokemon to be Ditto - Bug fixes from github.com/pret/pokered/wiki/%5BARCHIVED%5D-Bugs-and-Glitches: - HP draining moves and Dream Eater may hit when they shouldn't - Bide damage doesn't get cleared properly in link battles if you are the host - Removed comments about screen tearing bug which was already fixed

@YuyuHakurei 2 ай бұрын

Grass is still extremely redundant though. Water covers the same weaknesses, except it also beats fire. You can say the same for rock and lightning as well. Fixing the accuracy for those is a nice change though because rock moves are good if they had higher accuracy. Though by fixing some of the type weirdness and weird moves that does change the meta a little bit. Grass still isn't going to be non redundant, but they might have more use in the end game content that was added. If they limited the types so that each type can only be good against 2 types. Then that might have fixed some of the huge problems the type chart still has today. In a way that makes it so you don't need to add more types to the game. Yet still could for flavor anyway.

Out of context, yes, it’s very interesting. However, it does allow the team to deal with the issue of “smart” AI where certain trainers would use super-effective-type moves against you endlessly… even if those moves don’t do any damage For a prime example, one of Lance’s Pokémon can be cheesed by throwing in a poison type pokemon - even at a super low level - and Lance’s Pokémon will continue to use Agility, which is a Psychic type attack, and because trainer Pokémon don’t have to deal with PP limitations like the player does, it will continue to do this until you either switch Pokémon or Struggle out

I rotated my team throughout the entire game, and that kept it really fun and engaging throughout the whole game.

Small glitch for 1.0.9 in the Game Corner prize exchange. If you back out of the menu to exchange coins for Pokemon/TMs by holding the b button, you can break running if you continue holding the button down when you next try moving. You wont be able to run, but Pikachu's sprite will think you're running and start flopping around. The effect lasts 10ish steps and then fixes itself.

24:50 - Holy crap! They actually used my suggestion of giving Jump Kick/High Jump Kick to the Ponyta/Rapidash line! 😭 Although someone did point out that HJK has a different name in Japanese which doesn't make sense for quadripeds but I still think it's cool! ❤

@ShiningJudgment666 2 ай бұрын

The line is literally based on a horse. Horses kick when they're spooked so it makes sense. The added coverage is welcome for it otherwise it's another bad Fire type limited to Fire and Normal coverage (and Fire type has it rough enough in Gen 1 though it's useful in some parts of the game at least).

@mapleunix1 2 ай бұрын

@@ShiningJudgment666 yes I'm aware, that's why I suggested the move. What I'm saying is that someone replied to my OG comment saying that HJK's original name in Japanese is more akin to a knee strike instead of a kick, and that HJK is a mistranslation. Something like that, I haven't re-read his comment. Anyways, point being that Jump Kick would've made more sense than HJK since horses kick with their legs and not their knees.
