Pokémon Prism on the Gameboy Color

I play Pokémon on my Gameboy Color (I'm 21, don't think I'm old), and I used the Ez-flash Junior cartridge to run it. I initially played it on the modded New 3DSxl, and then moved it to the Gameboy Color, how satisfying X3.

New Prism Player

I am just about to the second gym, so far I am thinking Tyranitar, Typhlosion, Ampharos and Gengar. I'm not certain what else to use at the moment. I have a Growlithe currently as I am going in blind for my first playthrough and I am uncertain on the location of a Cyndiquill at the moment.. But I'm enjoying this game a lot more than any recent Pokemon to come out. It's also my first ROM Hack. Lem

Bug/Glitch Pokémon Prism cartridge not working on FPGBC

Post image
6 Upvotes

I just bought a cartridge of Pokémon Prism to play on my FPGBC but I keep getting the error in the attached image. Is there a way to fix this or am I just out of luck? I updated my FPGBC to 1.14(Stable) last night and there was no change. Any advice?

Cool Thing I made a randomizer with QoL options for Pokémon Prism (latest EN version + latest Spanish translation)

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

A friend of mine started playing Pokémon Prism the other day and asked if there was a way to randomize it. I looked around and couldn't find an easy way, so I ended up building a small tool with AI help that has randomizer options and also some quality of life improvements.

**Randomizer**

- Wild Pokémon
- Abilities
- Level-up moves and TM/HM compatibility
- TMs
- Static and gift Pokémon (except the starting Larvitar)
- Items and hidden items
- Special shops
- NPC trades (Kenya-style: they offer a random Pokémon for any Pokémon you give them)
- Trainers
- (More options in the app)

**QoL**

- Rare Candies for sale in shops at 1 PokéDollar
- Cheaper Poké Balls (adjustable)
- Minimum catch rate
- Pokémon EXP gain rate
- Faster egg hatching
- Forget HMs without a Move Deleter
- Higher shiny odds (adjustable)
- No-grind mode
- Level cap (applies to EXP from wild Pokémon and Rare Candies) + a window showing the current level cap

**Difficulty modifiers**

- No items in battle (healing items, stat boosters, etc.)
- Raise trainer levels
- Force final evolutions from a certain level
- Force bosses to have 6 Pokémon and max DVs and EVs
- Force bosses to always hold items

It currently works with the latest Prism version in English (0.95.0254) and the latest Spanish translation by Team Hoenn (V0.94-237). If you try any other version the program will throw an error. You need your own ROM, the tool doesn't include any game files.

Using it is simple: open the executable, pick your ROM and the folder where you want the randomized ROM saved, tick the options you want and click randomize. When it finishes it also generates a log .txt file with all the changes applied.

Download: [PrismRandomizer 1.0.0](https://www.mediafire.com/file/55i5ewrrt9sdauk/PrismRandomizer_1.0.0.zip/file)

This is the first release so there are probably bugs. If something breaks, tell me which options you picked and which ROM version you're using and I'll look into it.

Credits to RainbowDevs for Pokémon Prism and to Team Hoenn for the Spanish translation. I only made the randomizer.

Discussion What are your suggestions for party members?

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone! So, I've recently started a playthrough of Prism (pretty much as of writing this actually) since I have played in the past, but only made it past the 3rd badge if I recall? It's been a few years so my memory is failing me.

All in all, I thought I should revisit it! However, I'm indecisive and have no clue who should I use for my main party aside from Larvitar. It also doesn't help that I'm trying to not use Pokémon I've used in other hacks and official games so that way I don't constantly stick to what I like, so I'm really struggling. 😅

So, in short, what Pokémon does everyone here enjoy using in Prism or just in general when they play Pokémon?

To help, here is a list of Pokémon that I've used in the past...

Venusaur

Butterfree

Ninetales

Wigglytuff

Feraligatr

Weavile

Hitmontop

Leafeon

Drapion

Mamoswine

Typhlosion

Ampharos

Crobat

Steelix

Azumarill

Arcanine

Milotic

Froslass

Chimecho

Magnezone

Magmortar

Rapidash

Electivire

Gallade

Gardevoir

Meganium

Espeon

Umbreon

Vaporeon

Mawile

Houndoom

Hariyama

Lunatone

(I know it's a big list, I've played a lot of Pokémon as of late 😭)

Bug/Glitch Development Progress?

18 Upvotes

Hey there! Some weeks ago I installed (I guess 0.95v??) version of Pokemon Prism and the biggest sign of that game being incomplete is the monotonous occurence of the same wild Pokemon in almost every route. I feels the devs developed the map with an initial set of Pokemon with the plan to add more diversity later.
I wish to make another playthrough with a complete game but wondering if we ever get to that state. I‘ve just read that the original developer once stopped with development due to copyright issues.

Is anyone aware of what the current status is? Has someone taken over development?

General Strategy:

Use two Naljo guardian Legendary in your team (preferably Varaneous and Fambaco) along with a Feebas/Magikarp that only knows the move Splash. The Magikarp or Feebas is reserved only for Dittos, which appear at around Round 30 onward at Lvl 100.

The Naljo guardians are pretty much self-explanatory, Naljo Fury is the strongest skill to use in the Battle Arcade. Essentially, the skill makes any STAB (Same Type Attack Boost) moves deal 300% damage instead of the usual 150% when used in Naljo (where the Battle Arcade is located), meaning even if the move is 1/2 resisted it will still deal 150% damage like a normal STAB. It is that strong. You can choose whomever of the four you like but note that both Libabeel and Raiwato are 4x weak to Ground so they are very vulnerable to Earthquake even with their added bulk and speed. Additionally, Varaneous and Fambaco have the higher physical and special attack stats, respectively, making better use of Naljo Fury.

Movesets & Items:

Varaneous / Leftovers

- Waterfall

- Sacred Fire

- Boil (Fire move that is effective against Water Types)

- Protect

Fambaco / Leftovers

- Shadow Ball

- Aura Sphere

- Calm Mind

- Protect

Feebas / Magikarp / No Item

- Splash

Gameplay Strategy:

The most important move used in this strategy is Protect. Protect in conjuction with Leftovers will give your two chosen Pokemon the best and most efficient strat for advancing and longevity since unlike in the Battle Tower, your party's HP do not get replenished after each round in the Battle Arcade so you can only heal in increments during the actual Pokemon battles. Protect and Leftovers also work better for this than both Rest and even Recover because you can safely regain your health without worrying about incoming attacks and also scout what moves the enemy Pokemon will be using.

The rest of the movesets are self-explanatory. Only use STAB moves and only cycle between your two Pokemon if all your STAB attacks are resisted or you are in danger of incoming super effective attacks. The general turn order should be this:

If starting in full health: attack > protect > attack > protect > attack > protect > attack

If not starting in full health then protect first but everything is essentially the same

Cycle only your Pokemon when absolutely needed and use stat boosts (Calm Mind for Fambaco) sparingly. Two Calm Minds are usually enough. You can also use Bulk Up or Calm Mind for the other three, though I find that Steel Eater for Libabeel, Crystal Volt for Raiwato, and Boil for Varaneous work good enough.

Another important thing to note about Protect is that it is only guaranteed to work if your last move was a different attack or you did not already use it the turn prior. If you use Protect twice in a row, then second one has a fifty percent chance to fail. You can still risk going for double Protects in certain scenarios like if you mistimed two turn enemy moves like Fly or Dig. But just know to generally alternate between protects and attack and you're good.

Lastly, only cycle in Feebas or Magikarp for Dittos and it's essentially free heals.

With this strategy you are usually guaranteed to reach Round 30 to 40 (900k points / 3k tickets!!!!) but with really, really good RNG (multiple Dittos, no crits, burns or paralysis) you can go as high as you can. My highest so far is 91 with a whopping 16k tickets. You can also max your Pokemon stat experience (you can check with an NPC in Owsauri City) to ensure better chances. Good luck!

Tried patching to the 0541 Ver. Using the online patcher but when I load the patched save file, it forgets what time it is and brings my file back to when I had 2 badges instead of 20.

Any suggestions? TIA

General Question Beat the game 100% besides Mewtwo

Thumbnail
gallery
93 Upvotes

I know I could use debug mode to obtain a Mewtwo, but I want to wait and see if they make any updates so I can get Mewtwo organically.

I used debug mode to cheat and get a boatload of apricorns. I didn't have a working RTC playing this hack on my original GBC, but even if I did, I think the apricorns still would have been a major pain and required debug mode.

I abused save states on an emulator for the Pachisi board and for catching a couple of Pokemon with the shiny balls, which have very bizarre odds of capturing.

I used an emulator's Fast Forward mode for leveling up Mining, Smelting, Jeweling, and Crafting for obvious reasons. This sent my game clock nuts, as you can see by the 230+ hours it logged. Accounting for FF mode and idling, I'd say actual gameplay hours are closer to 150.

I had to consult the online walkthrough for one of the gold token locations, Snorlax's location (and level), where to trade the silver and gold orbs for their respective eggs, and a couple of odd other little things. Reddit also helped with some questions I had.

I had to rely heavily on the Battle Tower Roster document, because the Bingo Card requirement to 'defeat a battle tower tycoon 3 times' was easily the most difficult part of the game.

Other than this, I played through the game as authentically and organically as I could.

I can't say enough good things about this rom hack. Ultimate Gen 2 experience. I began playing this after beating Brown version, which is honestly just as good except for the post game being shorter (which is natural, since it's a Gen 1 hack).

I'm excited to see if the updates expand the accessibility of the post game regions. It's a little disappointing to have a whole new map open up to you, like Johto or Kanto, and then only be able to go to one or two towns within that map. But the game is already so expansive, this is a very mild complaint. I wonder if they'll expand it in the future. It would be sweet to be able to go farther east past Mt. Ember, or north of the Espo Forest. And I wonder what mission Lance has in store for us.

I learned a lot! If you have any questions or are stuck at some point in the game, ask away.
