    Hi Avaramoon, I have a problem.

    During the Abyssol event in my Trainer Career, when I try to talk to the head scientist, I just get a Rare candy instead, So I can't continue the story.

    Thanks for reporting, it'll be fixed for Version 3! Sorry about the inconvenience.


    Your hack is looking great, avaramoon, and it looks like you've progressed enough for your thread to be moved to the Hacks Studio so just tell me if you'd like it to be moved there. :)

    By the way I noticed your first post has way too much unnecessary empty space at the bottom parts and it's a little annoying to scroll all the way down to get to the download link, maybe you should fix that up a little?


    Thank you! I don't think it's quite ready to be moved into the Hacks Studio because it's still quite buggy, but it's fantastic to know that it meets the requirement standard for when it is! =)


    As for the unnecessary space thing, it's weird, every time I try and delete all the empty lines more appear in other places. =/ no idea how I managed that, haha.

    I can't play the game, despite downloading it. What file type did you use to make the game?

    You have to patch the file to a FireRed rom. =)

    Great Game.:) Love the Crime Career.>:) Also how do you get through the tanzite tunnel because i keep going in one big continuous loop?? Nevermind I figured it out. Do you perhaps have a general idea (say a month) that version 3 will be released??{:3};)

    Glad you're enjoying it! =) I'd like to say in about five-six weeks but then again there's plenty that could go wrong between now and then lol.

    Can you list all the fakemons?


    For now, the only fakemon you'll have is Azradon, and its evolutions. There is another fakemon to be revealed =)

    Hey avara! Im new to the forums and i just got in this thing of rom hacking, I'm loving yours!!! I have a problem btw, i got the canal ticket from Aries(I work for the SFS), But i dont know where the aqueduct is, could you tell me? i cant find it anywhere. Maybe posting a map of every key place would be something could help a lot

    EDIT: Also forgot this, in cleanwater pound there was this Kingdra but i couldn't surf into the lake because it was unsafe, after suicune came and purified the pound, Kingdra disappeared so i cant complete my only sidequest to Shadrach

    Hi, your hack is awesome. It's been a long time since I have seen a hack as origainal as yours by breaking the classical pokemon formula.

    But, I'm a bit stuck right now. I refuse to see the thug with kiara at the beginning of the game and I dont know where to go after because the forest to the north is blocked and I did not see any event to know where to go.

    In-between the water path of verlume and lethean city, there is a path that goes south.

    In order to proceed you must have 2 pokemon in your party, talk to and battle the elderly couple. After you do that they will leave and you can progress.

    Is VBA bugged, or can I just not get passed the Help section? I also cannot get it patched onto the ROM correctly, as it will not work.

  • Okay now i need CUT and im tired of exploring for a License Agent or whatever please where is it or how do i get CUT?

    There are two ways to get cut:
    1: Talk to an npc located in the surf registry(its a bug)
    2: fly to havabora and surf to a small island(hint its near the cave full of ancient pokemon a.k.a troy's conserve)

    Is VBA bugged, or can I just not get passed the Help section? I also cannot get it patched onto the ROM correctly, as it will not work.

    What version of vba are you using? I recommend 1.7.2.
    Are you patching it onto a clean fire red 1.0 rom? Did you use lunar ips to patch it?

  • It is one of the best pokemon game (including the original games) i have played. But i need to know something.

    1) I am currently in the gray lord estate (criminal career) but i don't know what to do there. His mansion is locked and i can't talk with the police officer or researchers from the labs.

    2) The daycare system in gray's estate seems to be bugged, whenever i try to speak to the daycare guy the game freezes.

    3) Is there any other place where i can raise my pokemon other than wild battles?

    It is my first post in the forums so forgive me if i did any mistake.

    DoYouKnowHowToPokemon, the voice of the Pokéministry =P you know this game as well as I do haha!


    Playing this is an interesting experience. .____.

    Thanks! Yeah you're spot on about the legendary dogs. Although remember your Career and Alignment are different, like you can be a bad Seeker or a good criminal if you want - you don't have to go with your Career's default Alignment =) It works like this:


    If your Alignment is Bad, Suicune will battle you first at the Ruins of Kala, Raikou will flee to Bengaule Swamp to clear the thunderstorm and Entei will flee to the heat cave beneath Mt. Ore.
    If your Alignment is Good, Entei will battle you first at the Ruins of Kala, Raikou will flee to Bengaule Swamp to clear the thunderstorm and Suicune will flee to Clearwater Pond to purify the polluted lake.
    If your Alignment is Neutral, Raikou will battle you first at the Ruins of Kala, Suicune will flee to Clearwater Pond to purify the water and Entei will flee to the heat cave beneath Mt. Ore.


    As for the side-quests, selling the Carnivine to the boy in Lethean City Hotel will give you +1 point towards a Bad alignment, finding the little boy in Tanzite Tunnel and returning him to his sister will give you +1 point towards a Good alignment and the Moor Farm milk quest is Neutral, so it won't give you any Alignment Points at all. I'm hoping to put all this info on a website, I'm just terrible at organising haha.

    Go into the pub in Grey Lord Estate and get Gin. Then give the gin to the guard outside Loxar's mansion in Verlume Villas. Thank you for reporting the Day-care glitch, I hadn't heard about that before. Will try and find the problem! =) As for training, you could try the Tripoke Challenge at Clearwater Pond. I hope that helps you out a bit! If you have any more questions feel free to come back =)

    Thanks cant wait for it to come out!!:):)


    I'm excited as well, can't wait to see what you guys think of the new stuff! I still have tons to do, so perhaps my original estimate was ambitious =P

    The base is hidden in the mountain before the city with the third gym. Take the path on the right between the trees before coming into the city.
