[Other] [pokeemerald] One pokedex entry associated to multiple pokemons

[Mottasse]

I have multiple version of pokemons, such as an icy bulbasaur with its own sprites and moveset, a fire bulbasaur etc... but I want them to be associated with the same "bulbasaur" pokedex entry. I've managed to create my new pokemons, but now they have different pokedex entries (there are 3 different bulbasaur entries in my case). I'd like to have only 1 pokedex entry for all of my pokemons. Any idea on how I could do that ? Didn't find anything on that...

The mapping between species IDs and pokedex IDs is done in src/pokemon.c. You can search for "pokedex" to find the relevant code and data.
Maybe you could try adding your new mons to the lists there without using the macros like SPECIES_TO_HOENN, to assign dex IDs to your new species that don't correspond with their species IDs.

Thanks a lot, it works like a charm ! I just had to modify the following code to src/pokemon.c:

...
SPECIES_TO_HOENN(BULBASAUR),
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_GREEN - 1] = HOENN_DEX_BULBASAUR,
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_RED - 1] = HOENN_DEX_BULBASAUR,
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_BLUE - 1] = HOENN_DEX_BULBASAUR,
SPECIES_TO_HOENN(IVYSAUR),
SPECIES_TO_HOENN(VENUSAUR),
SPECIES_TO_HOENN(CHARMANDER),
SPECIES_TO_HOENN(CHARMELEON),
...

and

...
SPECIES_TO_NATIONAL(BULBASAUR),
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_GREEN - 1] = NATIONAL_DEX_BULBASAUR,
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_RED - 1] = NATIONAL_DEX_BULBASAUR,
[SPECIES_BULBASAUR_BLUE - 1] = NATIONAL_DEX_BULBASAUR,
SPECIES_TO_NATIONAL(IVYSAUR),
SPECIES_TO_NATIONAL(VENUSAUR),
SPECIES_TO_NATIONAL(CHARMANDER),
SPECIES_TO_NATIONAL(CHARMELEON),
...

And then to delete the pokedex entries of BULBASAUR_GREEN, BULBASAUR_RED, and BULBASAUR_BLUE in src/data/pokemon/pokedex_entries.h, include/constants/pokedex.h and src/data/pokemon/pokedex_orders.h
