Could you add Recharged Yellow & Emerald please?

And at the same time the best way to play Pokémon Sword & Shield (8th Gen) and the GBA version (Despite being romhacks) are much better achieved and worked than the original versions of the Switch.

Extensive hacks like these tend to have problems on certain devices/emulators. Make sure the safe type is set correctly, just in case.

@RageBurner Add Pokémon Recharged Yellow & Emerald Next Please.

Thanks @Teone! I'm awful at coming up with these myself.

Brutha, I gottchu .

 

[Kurizu208]

this is amazing! noob question, is there a similar demake for XY and SM? I'm not familiar with pokemon hacks

Phantonomy is doing sun and moon right and has been posting progress in their discord. It has been impressive so far.

 

[DJPlace]

if Arceus is in this with EXP All i'm game.

 

[Rocket2049]

this is awesome, not because it's a de-make of sword/shield, but it's ONE single game so i don't need to trade or make friends or whatever, and it has EVERY DAMN POKEMON, and it's with postgame DLC stuff too!

No se si sea el único, pero cuando lo descargo en Chrome me detecta el archivo como malicioso.

Google recibe cuantiosas sumas por marcar y denunciar como maliciosas muchas cosas inocuas. Lo más probable es que esto ocurra por ser una ROM o por tener Pokémon en su nombre.

Además, este es principalmente un foro de habla inglesa, así que por favor mantente en ese idioma cuando estés fuera de las subsecciones específicas de idiomas extranjeros.

really? so they change it, well I glad coz I be honest SnS story is not only bad but also stupid, the villain reason do bad thing is solving power outage that will happen in 1000 year later?, dude it happen 1000 year later, why not oh I don't know research how to use multiple gigantamax pikachu or any electric pokemon more safety than use Eternatus that give you Gigantamax? and don't tell me Gigantamax stone or whatever it called is hard to get coz almost everyone in Galar have it, and the champions is super annoying positive dude same as his brother.

One thing to note is that Eternatus is the origin of its regional phenomenon. There would be no Dynamaxing, let alone Gigantamax forms, if it had never landed in Galar.

Hmm as far as I remember the game is not 1:1 demake. So story itself as in what happened seem to remain but how story unfolds and how it happens and what dialogues are there changed. This demake has developer's humor. For example there is a bug pokemon that says "I'm a bug or a feature" or something, so despite you may disliked the original it's fun to play the demake at least. Fans does what Nintendon't again lolol.

This is really neat! It’s just a shame so many pokemon have walking sprites and you can’t have them follow you

 

[KaiserMk7]

Anyone have the patch file and the name of the game it's meant to be applied to? Github won't load and the show links button doesn't work on my present connection.

Dang, released 3/11/2025, 21 years ago.

It must be a system bug/glitch
because if it is 2025 it would be equivalent to 4 months and 2 days.

Yeah no idea what's up. The date input part of the form is very wonky.

Doesn’t seem to work properly on my ez flash, the game keeps repeating to previous on your quest screen right in the beginning. Anyone have a solution for this?

[JustARandomDude]

Good idea. Especially Persona 4 Pixel Demake would be fun lol. So far I'm closer to releasing Harry Potter 1 Demake because I at least made one asset that can be useful for it lol:

View attachment 89717
But it was done as a meme, not for a demake project lol. And my Persona 4 artworks could only be used for a remake project lol.

Dammit Bobby!

- Full Sword and Shield Story

but why? please tell me at least they change everything in the Story, coz the original SnS story is bad.

Pokémon hack that includes Pokemon of other generations: I sleep
Pokemon demake: REAL SHIT

 

[Sunnyside]

Wow. They fixed Gamefreak's biggest mistake: swapping from sprites to 3D models. Major kudos to the developers.

 

[Fayds]

One of the best Pokémon rom hacks. Hopefully Unbound, Odyssey, Super Mariomon all make there way here.
