About This File

This is a mod of Pokemon Rumble (Wii) that was made for the shiny hunting community event Rumble Weekend! The original Pokemon Rumble contains only the 1st and 4th gen Pokemon, but this mod reintroduces the 2nd & 3rd gen Pokemon (and their shinies) to the game in a new terminal known as "GX"! The layer of fog on all stages has also been removed, and the collection screen has been updated to support all 493 available Pokemon!

The original base game also remains fully intact in order to preserve the rarity of certain Pokemon.

Included are 3 bps patches to be applied to a USA version of Pokemon Rumble to get you into GX! Due to slight differences in dumps of the games out there, there were 3 patches made to ensure it works. (details on how to obtain the original game obviously not provided)

This is fully cross-compatible with save files from the original Pokemon Rumble (USA natively, PAL/JP with some additional steps detailed in the FAQ doc linked below), and it can be installed on actual hardware via homebrew. This patch currently ONLY works with the USA version of the game due to slight scripting/file structure differences that exist in the JP/PAL versions of the game, so if you want to play it on a Japanese or PAL Wii, you will need to do some region changing upon installation with homebrew.

This mod is still very much a work-in-progress, and for full details on what's available/what is planned for the future, read the readme file inside the zip folder!

-NEW-
There is now a document with frequently asked questions and answers! I hope to continue updating this as I keep updating the game!

To @shinykitty, @Funsparce, and many others out there,

REVIEWS ARE NOT THE PLACE TO ASK FOR HELP RELATING TO YOUR PROBLEMS.

Maybe start a thread and ask for help. Or maybe leave a comment, see if the author gets back to you.

Imagine a Yelp review. You can say why something is good or bad, but you can't say "I have issues with your app/the shop/whatever, please help me".

Alrighty, thanks for letting me know.

@Funsparce I think the problem may be that you're running the wrong IOS, here's a guide to installing the right one on your wii https://wii.guide/cios.html

 

And as theSLAYER said, leaving a question in a review generally isn't a good idea as it both makes the average rating go lower because of a problem that doesn't have anything to do with the thing you're reviewing itself, and it makes it much harder for other people to answer.

@Sadsealkid reviews are not for troubleshooting. There's a comments section.

I seemed to be having a problem getting this to run on my wii, when I go to install the .wad file it gives me an "Error: (-1022) Content did not match hash in TMD".

From your WAD manager, you need to select Rumble and uninstall. Then, try installing it again. It should work then!

That's because you're in Normal mode! The full GX terminal is in Advanced mode.

hey so how do I escape the GX terminal on normal difficulty? There doesn't seem to be any launcher spawning to take me out of it. Also I'm on version 1.1 of Weekend Edition and the rom I'm using needed the 2nd patch from both .zip files to work if that helps.

Hello, I am using a PAL Wii U with a modded vWii and I am getting the msg "this channel cant be used" when I try to load the installed WAD. I suspect it is region incompatibilities but I was hoping you could point me in the right direction of the correct method on making it work on my hardware, I have not been able to find anything that has worked for me after an hour of searching. The Wii Mod Lite software says its only for Wii consoles and not the vWii for Wii U. Thank you in advanced!

EDIT
I found a solution, I just launched it with USB Loader rather than from the wii menu. Its always the easiest solutions that do the trick, lol

What tools were used to edit the .cx files? This is very impressive work!

@Silvalfo You mentioned something about gecko codes for the gen 2/3, if it's not too much off a hassle, could you tell me what they are for the gen 2/3 mons?

So I'm in the GX terminal and I can't find a way to travel to other terminals. Is there any solution to this?

I have a question. In the 1.5.0 update, you said there are now release ticket recipes for getting alternate forms of Pokemon and such. Can you give us a list of the Pokémon we need to release for these recipes?

I can't seem to get the file to work when updating from 1.1 to 1.5, I keep getting the error (-1002) and any attempt at fixing it has not worked

I actually have the same problem, but I haven't seen anything to fix that, I've tried patching a completely clean file with every possible combination of patches and nothing has worked.

Nvm, I'm kinda slow, and did not read the readme.txt first

it's been several months of radio silence. I just want to know how to patch my game to be updated. I've tried and tried the method that seems to work for everyone else, but it says the patch isn't compatible with the rom. how do I end up with 1.5.wad? I've even tried redownloading everything from scratch and got the same result

edit: I figured it out and now I feel dumb lol. for anyone who also hasn't figured it out yet, you simply need to get the wad from a diff site/source because the one that comes with this whole package isn't compatible with the patch. I just had to search "Pokemon Rumble wad" and the first result worked with the second version of the patch. it took me a bit to figure this out because this project is so inclusive and hard to find mention of.

Is the FAQ accurate with 1.5's patch? I'm keeping tabs on this, but would like to know if those legends, especially Arceus, are in the game now.

Are there only currently 2 passwords, one for deoxys and one for castform?
