Pokémon Glazed is a rom hack of Pokémon Emerald released in 2012, the game starts in the Tunod Region, with a new Johto Region, and ends with the small Rankor Archipelago.

Originally created by redriders180 (last release was beta 7b), it was picked up by TrainerX493 with collaborative efforts with Tudou - who later also made Pokemon Glazed's offshoot hack, Blazed Glazed.

Story

Today's the day you turn twelve years old, which means today is the day you get your first Pokemon. But if you were expecting an uneventful journey across the Tunod region, you'd be dead wrong.

A mysterious power is sending the Pokemon world and the real world on a collision course. A mysterious team lurks around the ruins of ancient Tunod, with a mysterious purpose. You'll meet allies in three roaming trainers from the Johto region, as well as a scarfed Pikachu hell-bent on revenge. Will you be able to handle it?

Screenshots

Known issues

These are all part of the same glitch:

• Clair's Gym may not open/Dragonite event may not trigger.
• Articuno, Johto 7th Gym, Illix Forest, and many more all have reports of: The event not triggering, the event re-triggering, having missing NPC, NPC unresponsive, and/or having NPC reappear after they should be gone.
• Goldenrod train-station/Lance event may not activate.
• The cave for Articuno may close back up.
• The Legendary Dogs are supposed to appear in the Bell Tower later in the game, but sometimes some or all of them don't appear (EDIT: It should be noted that you have to catch the legendary dogs, you have to go to the top of Brass Tower and talk to Eusine to activate the event, which is never hinted at in the game.)

Other glitches:

• Timburr family, Druddigon, black/white Kyurem, Gen6 starters, Mega Pokémon, and the event battle Pokémon exist in the limbo slots between Celebi and Treecko, causing them to be forced to have Unown cry and corrupt Pokédex entries (Can be fixed by expanding the Pokedex).
• There is also the possibility of Bulbasar Eggs when breading these Pokémon and very rarely turning into a Bad EGG (Also Mega Pokémon can breed) (Can be fixed by expanding the Pokedex).
• Froakie and Gurderr will crash the game if caught (and the special Mew and Pikachu, but only if extra Master Balls are cheated in and used) (Can be fixed by expanding the Pokedex).
• The bait box in the Safari Zone may sometimes spawn multiple shiny Pokémon, which becomes Bad EGG when caught.
• Route 47 & 48 reuses Battle Frontier limited map-based start menu -- can not save on these maps.

Minor glitches:

• Inventor reappears in the second town after his event until the player reloads the map.
• The player warp on top of a NPC when traveling between Rankor.
• Some Pokémon show black text when talking rather than green (most fixed).
• After entering the cave/Pokémon Center, the boat on Haunted Isle can be walked through (caused because technically a different map is loaded).
• NPC doesn't leave after the event with Mew (and it's just a copy of the healer from the previous room).
• Whitney is standing just in view before she walks into Jasmine's gym.
• Pikachu is still spazzing out after the generator is turned off during the second encounter.
• Rain/Sun doesn't affect water/fire moves (due to an older pss system being added along with the pps icons, so replacing it with a better one will work).
• The spot where the player finds the lost swimsuit can be "pinged" indefinably.
• People in bench in Glenwood pop into exitance entering the town from the east.
• People in Route 48 pop into existence entering the route from the west.
• Coolu cave has clipping tiles on the player's head near some stairs, depending on the direction the player goes (layering issue).
• The move relearner doesn't unlock the camera if you enter the party menu and then exit without doing anything.
• Some clipping can be seen with NPC sometimes in Spacial Sea (There are probably too many sprites lining up in a row).
• Rankor's champion uses Blakes intro animation.
• Trades/Kyurem form change has visual glitches.
• Route 44, you can sometime see Dragonite in the trees before getting the letter from Mewtwo.
• Some NPC will wander off while you are still talking to them (There's a lot).
• There is a TM 29 (Psychic) in UNION CAVE, when taking it the ball doesn't go away (only part of the ball is shown, hidden behind a rock).
• Palmtree Resort Grunts may not appear when first flying there.
• The NPC that will take you to Lugia is spawned early although this shouldn't happen until later in the story.
• Items found in the cave after Cianwood City respawned after Beating JOHTO E4.
• In the ROUTE just above GOLDENROD CITY there is a fisherman that offers a Feebas if you win in battle. After winning, the player can claim an unlimited amount of Feebas.
• Healing from the hiker on Haunted Isle will dim the screen relative to the weather.
• Doctor Friendship (and possibly others) may call your Pokémon buffer260 or something similar rather than its name (rare - the script looks fine and it doesn't happen to me).
• Text boxes for signs change color when weather is present.
• Visual glitch when scrolling up in the Pokédex.
• If you level up at the same time you catch a new Pokémon, the text in the Pokedex is shifted (New with 9.1).
• Hidden Power only shows its type after the Pokémon learns the move (New with 9.1).
• Sturdy doesn't show a message when you survive a hit from full health (New with 9.1).
• Physical/Special/Status icons aren't properly cleared with the move deleter.

Changelog

• Poison is healed in the overworld once the Pokémon reaches 1 HP (notable for Milkshake Swamp).

  • New moves replaced several of the old ones, taking out rarely learned or unviable moves with many staples from the newer games.
  • Every Pokémon had their movepool updated, to either match the ones found in the newest game the Pokémon appears in (Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, Sword/Shield, or Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon).

  • Important trainers also had their moves updated too.
