About This File
This is a ROM Hack of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky that adds an entirely new starter roster, new mechanics, as well as tweaking the expressions and dialogue of the entire main story!
Hey, my name is Gala and I wanted to share a hack I created! This hack has been in the works since October of 2023, and is a very big feat of mine. The game’s plot itself is largely unchanged, but bits of everything else have been altered in minor or major ways. I’ll go into some of the more important changes below, but there is an in-depth spreadsheet here.

This hack alters aspects of the game’s story. Some characters look different and have new names. The entire game's script has edited dialogue to remedy poor translations and poorly conveyed emotions. The portraits of characters are more expressive where possible. However, that is the extent of my meddling. This isn’t EoS rebuilt from the ground up, it’s more-so a modified experience that allows me to learn the ropes of making an EoS ROM Hack!
-
We are planning to rework the post-game in a later update, but for now, the majority of our changes land in the main storyline before you graduate the guild. All of the pre-graduation dungeons have had their spawn tables revised with our new Pokémon.
-
You are able to evolve your starter and partner as soon as you discover the Luminous Spring!
-
Thanks to an amazing skypatch, ‘StarterMenuTool’ (credits to Chesyon, Adex, HeckaBad, Irdkwia), we have been able to expand the starter list drastically. Our community has voted on 85 Pokémon to be included as starters! There are even some unique picks such as Golett, Wimpod, and even Cosmog! We have also included every single traditional starter from the mainline games! We’ve worked hard to modernize all our starter learnsets.
-
This hack includes the Fairy type, along with 39 added moves and 22 added abilities!
-
We have added most SkyTemple community patches, which includes things such as Manual Team Control, the Move Growth system from modern PMD titles, Non-interruptive Weather, and many more! It all comes together to make the experience fresh and exciting!
-
We’ve also included the necessary applications to apply this patch to an untampered, US ROM of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. Assets were provided by many people through places such as the PMD Sprite Repository, so check it out to give the artists some love! Due credit is on the spreadsheet.

As excited and dedicated as I was to updating the changelog, it's just far too time consuming to be doing alongside all these large updates. So for now the Changelog will not be updated for a little while, in order to give myself time to focus on getting the major content additions out of the way first. Here's a to-do list of what changes haven't been documented, which will be updated periodically alongside future updates. I apologize in advance if the changelog appears incomplete from time to time!
- Elaborate on missing Evolutions
- Update Marine Resort item data
- Update the POKEMON Chapter to include the new changes/additions
- Add the newly applied patches to the PATCHES Chapter
- Elaborate on the new content found within Treeshroud Forest
- Add a SPINDA CAFE Chapter
Just in case I don't make a major post till New Years, Happy Holidays to you all! Feel free to check in from time to time for Changelog updates!
