Pokémon Emerald Version: Pokemon Emerald - 386

Pokemon Emerald 386's main goal is to give players the opportunity to opportunity to meet and obtain at least one of every Pokemon available in generation 3 as naturally as possible, thereby completing the Pokedex without the need to connect to or interact with other games or events. This project DOES NOT try to increase/decrease difficulty; add modern mechanics; change lore; "fix" balancing "issues" with the original Emerald release; or include post-gen 3 pokemon, evolutions, items, etc.

On top of creating an environment in which to complete the Pokedex, the game also tries to compliment the expanded availability of Pokemon by giving players repeated access to ALL TMs, Move Tutors, and Evolution items.

Highlighted Features:
* Original Special-Event Tickets & Map properly restored
* Gen 1 and 2 Legendary Pokemon given appropriate events
* ALL Legendary Pokemon have re-spawn safety (also including the Sudowoodo)
* Trade-Evolutions achieved through a special NPC "trade-helper" (trade-evolve YOUR Pokemon and keep it!)
* Fossil Regenerator expanded to include all fossil Pokemon
* ALL TM's become available for re-purchase at certain points
* One-Time Move Tutors can be reset for continual access
* Missing Decorations added

Other Bonus Stuff:
* The missing Zigzagoon from the cable-car scene restored to intended chances of appearing!
* Deoxys learned move-set expanded to include all version exclusive moves from FR/LG & R/S.
* Some NPC Pokemon teams expanded to trigger Pokedex "seen" flags, allowing players to hunt newly-added wild Pokemon.
* NPC's added to hint at new content like where in-game trades are located and what is on offer, or where they caught a certain Pokemon.
* Ability to reset the RTC for players who have emulators which do not properly keep track of time when the hardware is powered off.
* Some in-game rewards for things like fetch-quests, Hoenn Pokedex completion, story progression, etc. have been updated - Talk to everyone!

This is NOT intended to be a modern-version of Emerald! It is intended to be the Original Emerald... only completable as a solo player. Players looking for the old-school experience should be happy with what is on offer, and can find a more detailed account of changes in the readme. However, plenty of care has been taken so that all added wild pokemon are somehow hinted at or triggered in the Pokedex so players should not need the readme for added locations, and NO vanilla encounters have been removed.

0)Introduction
=======================================================================================================
Pokemon Emerald 386's main goal is to give players the opportunity to opportunity to meet and
obtain at least one of every Pokemon available in generation 3, thereby completing the Pokedex
without the need to connect to or interact with other games or events. This project DOES NOT try to
increase/decrease difficulty; add modern mechanics; change lore; "fix" balancing "issues" with the
original Emerald release; or include post-gen 3 pokemon, evolutions, items, etc. - There are plenty
of really amazing hacks that do all of this (and more), and I encourage you to try those as well!
Please, before writing a review, consider what this hack intends to do, and if it met its goal, and
if this was outlined well-enough before investing your time into it.

With that being said, understand that Pokemon Emerald was "missing" a LOT of Pokemon! So, to
keep things as organic as possible, I have tried to include various methods to obtaining them, and
to "spread out" their appearances or events so that at no point in the playthrough does it feel as
if they all were just dumped into the game at once. I have re-worked certain events in the game so
that they might offer different rewards than before, or I have modified in-game trades, or I might
have developed a few new rooms in an existing cave or something to ensure that the methods feel as
organic as possible. In addition, to compliment the massive amount of pokemon added to the world, I
also have unlocked the National Pokedex from the start of the game - it would be such a chore to
need to beat the Elite 4 before you were allowed to hunt all of the new monsters. Another related
goal was to give players some way of having extra access to TMs, tutor-moves, and evolution items,
so that players have the freedom to develop more than one pokemon dream team; but I also wanted to
avoid breaking the game by doing things like making TMs infinitely usable (for example), instead I
tried to find a good balance, and I encourage you to review the rest of this readme for the various
solutions I've implemented. Also, keep in mind, that by having a larger pool of Pokemon to catch
as you progress, the game *might* be easier than you remember (or vanilla Emerald guides reflect)
in some places; but this is something which is unnavoidable.

The last thing I've tried to do is to make it so that the game helps you find all the monsters
without the need to keep this readme file! So, for example, some NPC battles have been slightly
altered to include the "new" Pokemon I've introduced into the wild, creating an "event" where the
pokedex registers the monster as seen, and allowing players to find that Pokemon in the wild. The
NPCs which have been affected may have already been, or have now been re-positioned in such a way
that players cannot progress past them without actually battling them. This was done so that the
opportunity to trigger the pokedex is not accidentally skipped. The instances of these changed NPC
battles are as few as possible, and do not include key battles like Gym Leaders or Rival battles -
I did NOT want to change so much in the game. Changes to the teams can be one of two ways: Pokemon
were ADDED to the trainer's team, or new Pokemon were EXCHANGED for old Pokemon on their teams. I
suppose that in the few events where these trainers were once optional and had smaller teams, and
have now become unavoidable and have larger teams, this *might* make the game a smidge harder than
players might remember (or vanilla Emerald guides reflect), so maybe it balances out? Other help
comes along in the form of NPC dialogue, or a traveler's journal left open on a desk - If you check
with everyone and explore, you will NOT need a guide to find the "new" Pokemon. If there are any
Pokemon which are not encountered in NPC battles or hinted at in some way, it is because they are
vanilla Emerald Pokemon which have not been changed, meaning that THOSE pokemon can still be found
by using any printed or online guide for Emerald (I have not removed any wild Pokemon from a route).
NPCs which sell from 'upgradable' item lists will also say something along the lines of "come back
and check later for even more stuff" - they may not say when or what triggers them to get the new
stuff, but they will alert you to the idea that they are worth coming back to (regular Town Marts
will not hint at the upgrade for the TM they will carry after the Gym Battle, however).

One last thing: I have worked very hard on this hack, and had even had to start completely
over at one point due to a computer failure (and I was almost finished, too). I have made sure to
personally check and verify each addition or change that I made by actually playing the game and
triggering the scenarios (not just looking at the data, but actually doing the trade; starting
the static encounter and running, defeating, and catching the monster; collecting the item, etc).
I have also played through the game from a fresh save file all the way to beating the Elite 4 and
interacting with any/all of the post-game changes to make sure they work. I have also had a few
volunteers help me beta test by playing through on different hardware and different emulators. I
really wanted v1.0 to be as solid as possible. However, I may have overlooked some interesting
missing content that I may be able to add, like an event-only battle move or something that is not
obtainable because the Super Duper Pokemon Summer Event 2006 (fake example) is long gone. Basically,
the game *might* need future updates, but I want you to know that I consider this release to be
pretty solid, and you should feel confident that if you start a save file on v1.0, you will have a
good time (and that, if needed, you should be able to update and keep your save file, no-problem).

C) Shops and Items
+ All TMs which were once finite (limited) will become available to purchase (unlimited) somewhere:

(NOTE: I had experimented with re-usable TMs but found that this had both broke the base difficulty
(however difficult you may or may not find it as-is) by allowing players to swap moves on-the-fly,
without sacrifice, in an area like the Elite 4 challenge; as well as making certain locations and
shops redundant (like the Game Corner, Lilycove Dept store, TM seller, etc.). I feel that, now, with
these upgrading shops ONLY carrying the TMs which were originally finite (and not including Game
Corner prizes), but still costing money, and must be unlocked after progress says "you should have
been able to find the 'pickup' location of the TM first", players can still have a somewhat vanilla
experience on the initial adventure, but also be able to change moves and use TMs without worry.
ALSO, TM21 'Frustration' and TM27 'Return' can already by infinitely obtained in Pacifidlog Town, So
they have not been given another infinite position.)

+ Most rare TMs (finite in orig. Emerald) can now be unlocked at TM seller in Slateport Market:
(NOTE 1: The shop must first be unlocked the original way: Get TM43 from NPC on Route 111.)
(NOTE 2: The shop will initially only carry the original Emerald TMs:)
+ TM10 (Hidden Power)
+ TM43 (Secret Power)
--- The 1st expansion will unlock after obtaining the Heat Badge (4th badge) to include:
+ TM01 (Focus Punch)
+ TM05 (Roar)
+ TM06 (Toxic)
+ TM07 (Hail)
+ TM09 (Bullet Seed)
+ TM28 (Dig)
+ TM36 (Sludge Bomb)
+ TM37 (Sandstorm)
+ TM41 (Torment)
+ TM45 (Attract)
+ TM46 (Theif)
+ TM47 (Steel Wing)
--- The 2nd expansion will unlock after obtaining the Rain Badge (8th badge) to include:
+ TM02 (Dragon Claw)
+ TM11 (Sunny Day)
+ TM12 (Taunt)
+ TM18 (Rain Dance)
+ TM19 (Giga Drain)
+ TM22 (Solarbeam)
+ TM23 (Iron Tail)
+ TM26 (Earthquake)
+ TM30 (Shadow Ball)

+ TM48 (Skill Swap)

+ TMs from Gym Leaders unlock in that town's mart after earning the corresponding badge:
+ TM39 (Rock Tomb) : Rustboro Mart

+ TM34 (Shock Wave) : Mauville Mart
+ TM50 (Overheat) : Lavaridge Mart

+ TM49 (Snatch) : Ever Grande Pokemon League Mart

+ A few Game-Corner-only TMs have a bonus hidden-item location somewhere.
+ To help with the extra pokemon and time grinding Mauville Game Corner for coins, I have given
a few of the TMs from the Game Corner an extra finite 'pickup' somewhere in the world:
+ TM13 (Ice Beam) : as a Hidden Item in Articuno's room
+ TM32 (Double Team) : as a Hidden Item in Lapras' room
+ TM35 (Flamethrower): as a Hidden Item in Moltres' area
+ TM29 (Psychic) : as a Hidden Item in Mewtwo's room
- TM24 (Thunderbolt) : already has a bonus event so was not given an extra.

+ LUXURY BALL unlocked after defeating the Elite 4: can be bought in the Lilycove Dept. Store

+ BONUS evolutionairy items given extra locations to be found or as gifts.
+ UPGRADE

3) Things you *might* WISH that I would change, but won't:
=======================================================================================================
+ Easier FEEBAS: Feebas is still a pain in the butt. This was this Pokemon's gimmick, and I did not
want to take that away from it. When you finally catch the jerk, you can totally feel like you
did actually catch this jerk, for real.

+ HM Items: a popular change to rom-hacks is making field-use items to replace HMs (like a SURFBOARD
instead of SURF, for example). Again, my hack is a pure nostalgia trip (which you can complete),
and does not aim to modernize stuff like this. I think they are great additions to "bigger" more
robust rom-hacks, but not to my humble diet-vanilla hacks.

+ Running in-doors, ultra-fast text, speed enhancments, etc: As before, just trying to make a super
humble vanilla nostalgia trip. I also want to run in Pacifidlog, but I need to draw a line.

+ Night-time colors: 2 reasons I did not go for this: the first being the usual "nostalgic vanilla,"
and the second is that I see a lot of hacks with this change need constant updates for whatever
reason (it must be quite tedious to do correctly, so bravo to those who get it right), and I did
not want my hack to need constant updates after release (which is why I tested so much before
releasing).

+ DECAPITALIZING: Again, somehow, innevitably something gets overlooked and I would need to go back
in and decap something, update, repeat. But it's a VANILLA NOSTALGIA DREAM and not worth it.

+ Anything Else and Everything Else: Consider that everyone gets something different out of playing
through a Pokemon game, and no single hack can please everyone. This hack is for "semi-purist"
players who wanna complete dexes but don't want to invest in old hardware and methods or feel
like they cheated by using cheat-codes. This is for people who don't want a MODERN version
of Emerald, it's for those who want the OLD version of Emerald... only completable.

+ Jirachi event: You *might* have seen another Emerald hack do it similar to the way I've done it
here. If it is the rom-hack I'm thinking of, it is because it was a sugestion I made in that
developers Discord group. At that time I felt overwhelmed with doing an Emerald hack, myself,
and was anticipating their hack, and they were asking for suggestions. I actually do not know
if they did use it, and I obviosuly cannot be upset if they went with the idea. I want to say
that they had a fantastic hack in progress, and I wish them all the luck with it. I simply
wanted to do my own hack, and I also really liked my idea.

4) Patch version update notes
=======================================================================================================
1.0 - Nothing yet, as we are on v1.0


=======================================================================================================
5) Special Thank You
=======================================================================================================
+ First, I need to thank everyone involved in the Pokeemerald Disassembly project. Obviously, none
of what I've planned to do here would be possible. It is a lot of hard work to create and maintain
the project, and I am very very grateful to them. By extension, I want to thank everyone involved
with pret and its extensions like the discord group. They, alongside branched discord groups, like
RH Hideout, have been invaluable resources to turn to when I had encountered road-blocks. Everyone
who has contributed to the wiki via forum posts in the form of walktrhoughs or tutorials for nifty
features also deserve massive thanks. Team Aqua's Hideout video tutorials for features was also an
amazing resource I couldn't have lived without, so "Thank You" to them, too! Specific users from
these resources for specific changes are as follows:

+ Mgriffin: Project setup and Porymap troubleshooting
+ Jaizu: Porymap troubleshooting, tutorial on sound changing
+ Zatsu: Some NPC movement scripting
+ Lunos: Help with, and creating tutorials for Script Specials, Overworld and UNOWN expansions.
+ Sbird: Project setup
+ ShinyDragonHunter: UNOWN encounter troubleshooting
+ TheXaman: Their tutorial on in-game self trading
+ DD: Roaming Beast Expansion (name changed as they did not want to be credited)
+ Louroboros: Tutorial on enabling RTC-changing
+ Alex D, daniilS and Samu for tutorials on changing + updating snow effects
+ ghoulslash: Surf dismount fix tutorial
+ devolov: pre-evolution move tutor tutorial
+ Goppier: Mt.Chimney cable car documentary

+ I want to thank my beta testers, JAYVEE1473 and Tellz, who volunteered to test and continually
update their beta versions as we went along, refining elements, or squashing bugs.

+ I want to thank everyone who has taken the time to write informative, but spoiler-free reviews
for my previous rom-hacks on romhacking.net so far:

+ Crystal 251:
Arindur
SteRossetto
Incantator (also for Yellow 151)

+ The Pokemon documentation sites Bulbagarden/Bulbapedia and Serebii.net
+ https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Main_Page
+ https://www.serebii.net

+ ProjectPokemon.org, and especially VictorV111 for his save-file which I used for testing.

+ I also want to thank you, whoever you are, for downloading and taking a chance with my hack (and
especially if you took the time to read this novel of a readme file). I worked really hard to teach
myself new skills so that the project would feel as natural and original as possible. I wanted to
avoid cringy dialogue and I also wanted to avoid adulterating the 'soul' of the original game.

+ "Thank you all" - Razormime
