Pokémon Prism (Crystal romhack) |OT| Get your kicks at Route 68+1

There's a newer patch being released soon, I'll make sure to ping here once it gets released. Tons of bugs are fixed and issues resolved.

RE: Player sprite above, yes, that's a glitch that happens when too many unique sprites are on a single map group.
 
Beat 11 gyms so far and this is my team immediately after the last gym leader I faced.



They wiped me 3 times in a row. Froslass (Ice Beam, Shadowball, Spikes, Freezeburn) is doing a really good job keeping me going. I thought Gardevoir, with over 50 more SP. Atk (Psychic, Signal Beam, Draining Kiss, Moonblast), would have this honor but freeze status has clutched it for me quite a few times by now.

Moltress took Pidgeot's slot as my Flyer. Being a fire type with Boil, a 75 Atk fire move that is super effective against water (romhack!), I felt like Typhlosion was a bit unnecessary so I'm trying Libabeel for now. I did just find leftovers so right now I'm tempted to raising a Baton Pass/ Support Vaporeon since it's something I always try to do in Pokemon.

Where'd you find Libabeel specifically? I want it and Veranous before I tackle Johto. I also want a Sylveon, but my Eevee keeps wanting to turn into an Umbreon even with Charm.

By amusing coincidence, I received the 20th gym badge at exactly 20 hours in. Also I find that interesting, as it takes me about 20 hours to get to the Elite Four of every other main series Pokemon title. So it seems Prism is a little stripped down in terms of story or maybe something else.

Nah, I took me 58 hours. I was wondering isn't Weepinbell supposed to evolve by Leaf Stone? It says not able when I try to evolve one. I just want to complete the Pokedex.
 
Just got this on my 3DS, liking it so far. It's a very refreshing change of pace. I enjoyed Moon for all of the changes that it brought to the table for Pokemon. But there's something about playing a new "old" Pokemon game that makes me happy.
 
Well I was saying this is probably the most accurate to the series romhack out there, guess it's even more accurate with that bug.
(Moon Ball worked better on Pokemon that evolved with Burn Heal in vanilla Gen 2, they didn't update the hex after the tables were changed from Gen 1)

That's good that some people are still trying to work on it though, was a shame how all of that went down.
