Wild pokemon dropping their item upon fainting is actually an excellent idea and I’m surprised neither the main games nor many fan games have implemented the idea.

[@SokkieJr]

Scarlet and Violet have pokemon drop materials from them, which in turn can be used to craft TMs.

[@SproingBoing]

Valid point, but I'd argue the material drops function more like a secondary currency to allow the purchase of TMs at the machine instead of being immediately usable upon acquisition @@SokkieJr

[@ScumSookar]

Let's GO, Arceus and SV all have some variation of a drop system from wild Pokémon. The drops in Arceus are the most varied.

[@zobblewobble1770]

Pokémon X an Y kinda did something with this idea, but much more convoluted. In some wild battles you would see rocks or trees behind the wild Pokémon. If you use a move that hits multiple targets, it would break the terrain and you get an item drop (usually a berry or stone). Of course It wasn’t really brought attention in game, so not a lot of people know about the mechanic. I know it’s not exactly the same as a Pokémon dropping an item, but I figured I should mention it.

[@K0DA._.]

@@zobblewobble1770 Yeah, I remember that. My main issue with the mechanic was how limited the moves were. Wasn’t it something like Twister, Razor Leaf, Blizzard, and one other attack that knocked down trees?

Roughly, Game Boy = NES. Game Boy Advance = SNES. This one was made recently, so much larger cheaper carts can be made vs back in the day. It has 150 (+1?) large data cost sprites. If you swapped the large data sprites for a generic symbol of the type (a rock, lightning bolt, water fountain, leaf) with a subname of (onyx, Pikachu, squirtle, venosaur) it'd work on the small cart.

[@CaptianKatsura]

In Fire Red and Leaf Green Janine is one of the random NPCs hanging out in the zoo, though she uses a generic sprite and isn't directly named. That said, the trainer in Koga's gym seems to just be a "Ninja," a new generic trainer type for this bootleg that uses Janine's sprite.

[@boianko]

​@@CaptianKatsuraWell, considering the weird family situations Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny have going on who's to say that they aren't all Koga's daughters

[@FR099Y]

Not sure what's more likely. They purposely did that for story reasons, and her name was lost in translation. or if they just picked different sprites that fit the theme of the gym. But this bootleg is actually great. I'm genuinely looking forward to playing through it myself.

[@PrincessAquos]

Was looking it up, and apparently Janine is *all* the gym trainers in Koga's gym in this port I'm gonna assume they're identical siblings, and they fought to the death to determine which one would take over the Gym after Koga left 💀💀💀💀

[@Leron...]

There are so many interesting quirks with how this was programmed. For example, the Pokemon had entrance animations but *only* the first Pokemon sent out by the opponent would show its animation.

[@marhawkman303]

Also the movelists are pretty WTF... Alakazam using SUPERSONIC?!?!? Not actually a lot of pokemon had that move in gen 1.

[@GigaOtomia]

About the "magic pixel" - it happens when the developer doesn't code in an exception for the health bar to always exist until HP falls to EXACTLY zero. If the percentage is low enough, and the health bar isn't wide enough, you can get situations like you saw in the Elite Four, where the health bar is entirely missing, but whatever it represents still has a tiny amount of health remaining.

[@marhawkman303]

Yeah, my thought was that the HP bar is in chunks, 1 chunk per pixel. but in this game the last chunk is only shown if you have that much or more HP. If you have only 1 HP... it might not be enough.

[@double-anonplays2765]

I think the reason why Gyarados was having trouble picking the KO with STAB water type moves against Pokemon with times 4 weaknesses might be because this game might not have the STAB mechanic, so it was missing that extra 50% boost. Just a hunch, but that's the only thing that makes sense

That's a good thought, I was thinking this game might not factor in stat experience instead. I was noticing that hp on pretty much every mon used was pretty low, so I wouldn't be surprised if everything defaulted to minimum stats.

[@dznutskong]

@@chancellorrussell5946 I actually calced at a few points where I could see them and the Pokemons' stats are identical to what they would look like if their DVs/IVs were 0 and they had no other boosts. I wouldn't imagine they'd miss something like the STAB boost if they were able to get so many specific base stats right, but like it was mentioned in the video I wouldn't be surprised if something with the damage calculation was a bit off. Everything did seem just a bit bulkier than I would expect but I don't really have any big reasons beyond that.

There's also bootlegs of Generations 2 (Including the infamous Gold/Crystal port and one of HeartGold), 3 (The confusingly named Pokemon Diamond, as well as Kou Dai Xuan Zi, probably the worst of these) and 4 (A port of Pokemon Platinum). This game isn't even the only version of Kanto on the NES, Waixing did a Pokémon Red port that uses the original graphics, but that one isn't nearly as good, and yet another company did a port of LeafGreen that also uses the FRLG graphics and has a more faithful version of Kanto but is split into three parts and uses Hoenn music.

Brock having Zubat and Vulpix like in the anime was as really nice addition. I’m surprised the actual remake of Yellow didn’t do that with how much the anime inspired it

I actually really love the idea of every Pokemon you faint has a small, but still somewhat likely, chance to drop almost any item. Gives winning a battle a bit more excitement, and makes grinding a bit more interesting. You could also use it as a slow way to get basic items if you're broke.

I have to disagree with your opinion on statuses. The ability to overwrite them messes with a lot of the strategy involved. Using a slow, defensive Mon to absorb an incoming thunder wave is great because it means that Mon can't be toxic'd later on. Also, if you know they have a dangerous sleep move, like a Breloom with Spore, it's good to know that a mon that already had a status is essentially immune to Spore.

[@PrincessAquos]

I love how the translators handled the Pokemon types; since they're each represented by a single symbol of Chinese text in the original bootleg, the translators used the Pokemon TCG type symbols, since they would fit perfectly. This means there are some unusual details, like the Dragon type icon, which wasn't added to the TCG until 2012, which takes the port out of its 2005 context, as well as brand new symbols for types like Ground, Flying, Bug, Poison, and Ghost, which wouldn't get official icons (outside Pokemon Ranger and other edge cases that wouldn't carry their designs over) until Pokemon GO. This visually dates the translation to before 2016. I'd actually be really curious to see the symbols the translators made for Rock and Ice, as those were the only two types I didn't remember seeing the icons for in this edit. I'm also just assuming they used the Steel-type icon from the TCG, since even though I didn't see that either, that was made at the same time as Dark-type.

oddly this is really cool. even more just how some of the changes were in this, for sure a ruby one would be cool to see what changes they made to that too.

Without this video I would never have known about this version. But it's a bit rushed and doesn't go into much detail about all the changes. I would have been happy about more deep diving. Still, good video!
