They created several monuments to their gods and guardians. Their untimely demise was brought about by a series of disastrous earthquakes; all that remains of their society are their temples, idols and story, as relics of the past. In the present day, local archaeologist and Pokémon Professor, Professor Redwood, has noticed an increase in the region's seismic activity. Propelled by a growing concern for Orbtus' safety, he seeks the assistance of new Pokémon Trainers with a flair for adventure in the rural Celanto Town, a seaside town near the mysterious totem poles, and your home! Will you, along with the help of the Professor and your rival, be able to prevent the earth from consuming the region once more? ===Documentation=== Beware of spoilers: *[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OXOhR5oMio9lbdMoqKlKUyceQTiRvrNxooDwbWnbVqc/edit#gid=1106854944 Pokémon locations] - Also includes a list of unobtainable Pokémon. * [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oW8qNFk4TZKfvPArWcUhnoJqInKg87j_EDauglPhUMs/edit?usp=sharing Item locations] - Also includes a list of Mega Stones, TMs and HMs, and where to find them. * [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kNl2L2twD__tkGVU0eAHS65jPY2DSYKE9ZNXnTLPSlY/edit#gid=0 Changed evolution methods]. * [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1di5hs7OfD5h6HKqhUW2EqKpa_rKvse3JTVaMTzt9S88/edit#gid=0 Move Tutors Info]. * [https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonROMhacks/comments/jgobqt/walkthrough_links_updated_23_october_2020/ Walkthrough]([https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemonwt.7z *]) by Allen Ceedos. ===FAQ=== '''Q. Can I reuse my save from previous versions of Gaia for v3?''' No. Unfortunately, creative decisions mean that saves from previous versions of Gaia will not be compatible with v3. You will have to start over. '''Q. What about my save from v3? Will I be able to use that in future releases?''' Yes, forwards-compatibility is planned for saves from v3. ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia3.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia4.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia5.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia6.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia7.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia8.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia9.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia10.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia11.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia12.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia13.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/gbahomebrews/pokemongaia14.png ==Compatibility== Recommend emulators (set save type to Flash 128 KB): VBA-M for Windows <br> OpenEmu for mac<br> MyBoy and GBA4IOS for mobiles <br> ==Known issues== Please visit the #known-bugs channel of [https://discordapp.com/invite/Ccj3KK2 Pokémon Gaia's Discord server]. . ==Changelog== '''V3.2''' *Rename Edamist Steppes to Edamist Heights to better reflect its geography. *Change the road block in Aerous Road. ** As some Trainers are available earlier, Fernando's Pokémon have been raised a few levels. ** Similarly, the wilds in Aerous Road are slightly lower. ** The first two Trainers in Aerous Road are also slightly lower. ** The Super Potion in the bare spot of grass is now a Potion. ** The Painter in Aerous Road also shows up in the queue and indoors of the Aerous Art Club. *Change the New Elders encounter in Frostbite Cave to be less of an ambush. ** The player is not forced directly into battles with the Grunt and Elder Knight Eunice. ** The battles are instead initiated when the player tries to talk to Eunice or walk past her. ** Some of the dialog was rewritten.. ** The map was made slightly smaller to make it clearer that this is the exit of Frostbite Cave.. *Change the Braille puzzle's hint in Ferre Ruins to be less cryptic. *Change the events in Precimos Island so it is (hopefully) more clear where to go after defeating the Gym. *Make Hidden Power display its type for the Pokémon it is being taught to, or known by. *Fix the combination lock input box occasionally showing up to 7 digits, when only 4 are needed. *Fix the impassible tiles outside of Redwood's house in Archan Town. *Fix Cranidos' evolution method, so it actually evolves into Rampardos. *Fix Pokémon with inconsistent level-up rates, which causes them to gain levels upon evolution: ** Porygon-Z. ** Greninja. *Fix Rotom's compatibility with TM34, Shock Wave. *Fix Bisharp's compatibility with Sucker Punch from the Green Shard Meister. *Fix Maractus' incorrect weight. *Fix Mienshao's Ability order so that Mienfoo does not swap its Ability when evolving. *Fix the reflection tile errors in Cosmic Caverns. *Fix the reflection tile errors in Nestpine Town. *Fix a plethora of bugged icon sprites. *Give the Pokémon with no Ability the following Abilities: ** Mega Glalie: Refrigerate. ** Mega Ampharos: Lightningrod. *Make the textboxes of Coulter and Prof. Redwood actually disappear after they are finished speaking in Redwood's house. *Fix the text colour inconsistencies with the Diving Tour lady's dialog in the cutscene in Precimos Depths. *Fix Coulter's Surfing Pokémon blob still showing up in Precimos Depths after the cutscene takes place. *Fix the Escape Rope's warp location for Wisp Forest and Rimewood Forest. *Fix the border error in Nestpine Climb. *Fix Empoleon's EXP yield. *Fix the persistent money HUD after refusing to sell anything to the Relic Collector in the Precimos Hotel. *Fix the palette for HM01 Cut to match its Bug-type. *Fix the missing TM/HM compatibility for the following Pokémon's female forms: ** Frillish. ** Jellicent. ** Pyroar. *Fix the incorrect battle background in the Telmurk City house where the Mightyena Thug is battled. *Fix the incorrect script assigned to the right statue in the Nestpine Gym. *Fix some tiles in Cosmic Caverns not spawning wild Pokémon. *Fix Hidden Power's text description. *Fix Boomburst making contact. *Fix Ace Trainer Arnie's incorrect encounter music in Victory Falls. *Fix Deoxys' overworld sprite not disappearing. *Fix Crunch's description implying it lowers the foe's Sp.
