Hey there,

Has anybody found the narc location or the means to modify wild pokemon that you find waiting around for you in the overworld? The catchable Zekrom/Reshiram, the lvl 70 Volcarona, the Dream World Musharna, etc.

I'm only looking to change their levels; nothing else too fancy. Any clues?

Okay i will open my ROM, and i search in this section, so i checked it :)

after done maybe i know that file location :D, yeah if i open actual ROM is bigger........ narc file is better than edit actual ROM...... but Actual ROM is the best for searching/ researching........ editing is good at narc file (small pieces) :D

EDIT 2, i just litte searching just 1 min i was found that.

Cool, Kaphotics! Nice job. Is this in the a/0/1/6 folder, too?

Not at a/0/1/6 but in a/0/5/7, yeah file in a/0/5/7 i found musharna with "78 01 06 02 32" i was found in there

yeah i search musharna (from kazowar for HEX value, thankyou), i was found in actual rom at hex offset : 079190c0 for musharna, and is in a/0/5/7 for that :)

I found that value in a/0/5/7 (thank you for helping me kazowar and kaphotics :) )

Looks like this is a general script bundle for the game, as the files for the events with Pokemon are hardly a fair portion of the data.

Important script files related to this thread:

Adding some ones I forgot are stationary in the wild, they are in the same region of the ROM but have odd level hexes... same region.

Kyurem ---- 78 01 86 02 4B
Zoroark ---- 78 01 3B 02 19
Foongus ---- 78 01 4E 02 20 ---- Not sure why it's 20 hex.
Amoongus ---- 78 01 4F 02 21 ---- Not sure why it's 21 hex.

Looking at a/0/5/7, there's a whole 899 files. Breaking down the distribution.

It looks like this narc is entirely scripts. By changing these scripts you change what Pokemon appears.

The game calls a script, say when encountering Terrakion. It loads up 7_458, and the Pokemon that is scripted to appear is Terrakion. Changing the hex Terrakion is present at (78 01 7F 02 2A) allows you to change what appears.

I have no experience scripting, but all I can say is that there is absolutely no relation structure wise compared to Encounter Slots and trpoke/trdata. Those are a set size with easily interpretable meaning, scripts are not a rigid size/structure!

So Encounter slot can be manipulate in this narc?

I found basculin have 2 HEX value (Blue strip form have different HEX value), deerling have 4 HEX Value (every seasonal deerling have different HEX value),

normal form XX YY ( Original YY XX)

BUT In form 2,3,4 just replace YY into 0A, ...(i forgot), 1A

so shiny pokemon have different HEX value too. yeah i just beginner in HEX editing / script editing.... i little confused because i no have data for that to identified every HEX value o.oa .

No, I was just comparing the structure of the Encounter / Trainer data to this narc's structure. The Encounter / Trainer files have a constant size across all of the files. These do not.

Encounter / Trainer data is like filling out a Bio on yourself, it has information in a very readable manner.

Script data is like an essay, a computer can't really interpret it without advanced programming because the information is scattered.

=====

What I'm trying to say is that this narc is just a script folder. The "78 01 (dex #) (level)" line signifies the game triggering an encounter with a stationary Pokemon.

Wild encounters are not in this narc, but stationary ones are (because they use scripts).

I found some new stuff which I didn't utilize since I stopped updating my hack, but might be of use:

In a/0/5/7, there are two often recurring strings. You'll get 0C 80 XX XX, and 00 80 XX XX. These refer to items. 0C 80 XX XX are item balls found on the ground, whereas 00 80 XX XX are items given to you by NPCs. The XX XX is the hex number of the item, again flipped. You can find the indexes here.

@ Drayano

I understand most of that, and it's easy for some of the items you only get once, like if you wanted to change a TM to something else, or when Cheren gives you 3 Berries (only time you get 3 of them at once). But if you were trying to edit a Great Ball or something common like that, how would you know which one you were editing?

I don't understand this bit at all... Thundurus is the one found in white, not Tornados. Also, has no one actually made progress on finding where the roamers are at? I've searched for a while now and haven't gotten anything.

Then do you have any idea as to being able to possibly removing the roamer from the game? Perhaps disabling the event/flag that introduces them (I think it was beating the 8th gym?) could do the trick.

I'm trying to create a mod where I remove all of the Unova Pokemon, so, either removing or replacing the roamer works for me.

If you're using B/W1, be sure you are searching hex properly in whatever hex editor you're using. 800001b5 is probably what you want to search for; or just search for 00 80 b5 01 in HxD to search for giveitem (pal pad?).

Not exactly sure what you're trying to do :P
