Pokémon help overlay

by Maffin

For Pokémon FireRed Version Pokémon LeafGreen Version

An overlay with a lot of information about the current catch rate, keeping track of stat changes, your pokedex, and which pokémon are on which route. Everything detected live. You go to a new route, it detects it, you damage the opponent, it recalculates the catch rate. You apply a status effect, it shows you your adjusted stat range. All informations are decompiled from the original games (not the switch release, the original GameBoy files).

Exact enemy stats

  • Trainer battles show the enemy's exact stats. Every trainer's Pokémon is generated by the game from a fixed table, so its IVs and nature are knowable rather than a range.
  • Where two trainers genuinely collide the mod says so instead of guessing, and a trainer's fallen Pokémon narrow which of two identical twins the survivor is.
  • Fixed: a send-out counted more than once, which read the table at the wrong party slot.
  • Fixed: male and female SWIMMERs (and every gendered trainer class) were treated as the same trainer.

Damage, catch odds and the FIGHT menu

  • The FIGHT menu is annotated: every move gets a damage band, KO odds and hit chance, computed with the game's own arithmetic rather than an approximation.
  • Gym badges are applied - and it asks which ones you hold, not how many. Boulder boosts Attack, Soul Defence, Volcano both special stats, and Thunder is +10% Speed at turn order, which decides who moves first.
  • REFLECT and LIGHT SCREEN are read and subtracted. They halve what the other side deals and nothing on the HP box says so, which is how a "certain" KO used to hit and leave the target standing.
  • Abilities that change damage are applied - THICK FAT (DEWGONG, and any SNORLAX that has it) halves Fire and Ice attacks, plus GUTS, HUGE POWER, PURE POWER, HUSTLE and MARVEL SCALE.
  • Once the ledger knows one of your stats, the panel shows the number instead of a range, and the damage numbers use it.
  • Multi-hit moves get KO odds over the whole turn, and a move that can only kill on a critical hit says so rather than showing an impossible-looking chance.
  • Low Kick's power is computed from the target's real weight.
  • The catch strip stops rounding 99.9% up to 100%.
  • Transform is followed: a Ditto that copied your Raichu is shown as what it turned into.

Your Pokémon

  • A ledger of your own Pokémon: one entry per individual, learned from battles and summary screens, with its stats at every level it has been seen at.
  • A "Your Pokémon" window listing them, with a card for editing an entry the reader got wrong.
  • A nicknamed Pokémon finally gets a panel - it asks which species it is, once, and remembers.
  • Each entry carries its ability.
  • New: erase this save's data, at the bottom of Your Pokémon. Two presses, and the prompt names exactly what would go - for starting a new playthrough without the old one's records haunting it. Your panel positions and dex preferences are kept.

Double battles and the Safari Zone

  • Double battles work: all four Pokémon are read, each gets a panel, and damage is worked out against each enemy separately.
  • The Safari Zone knows what to throw: bait, rock or ball, with the odds for each.

Pokédex

  • A Pokédex checklist in the mod's settings, in dex order, switchable between Kanto and National.
  • Hovering a row answers "where do I find this", with the best odds first.
  • Evolving a Pokémon marks it caught, and the dex can be unpinned so it steps aside with the overlay.
  • Fixed: MR. MIME had no panel, no catch rate and no caught mark, ever.

Reading the game

  • The reader knows which situation the game is in - overworld, wild battle, trainer battle, Safari - instead of guessing from what is on screen.
  • Locations are read from the screens that announce them
