hack Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Alpha (3.0.3, last update 3/10/2025)

[Usagi Fang]

So is Buneary not a female option?

 

 

Nvm. I did the ID input thing. Tho I also ran into a bug recently where I just get a black screen after I completed some jobs. It refuses to do anything and I get no sound.

Unfortunate issue due to file bloat... I think it's fixed in the newest version but just to be sure when did this happen?

I downloaded the only version available from your original post 11 days ago, so it should be the latest unless I royally misread something. Weirdly enough, after evolving my main heroes and trying this again to see if I'd get the same crash, everything works fine. I don't know what's changed other than that and being later in the story, but it's fine now? I've tried it twice and it works? Sorry! I guess something very specific there is going on and I don't know what else to say.

Unrelated, and this is a much more minor of an issue, the exclusive items for Sneasel and Sneaseler I think are supposed to be swapped name-wise? Climber's Bow has the move Dire Claw's effects, but the item Dire Claw absorbs damage from psychic type moves instead.
Also I'm like 99% sure there's something up with the spawn rate of the Climber's Bow. As mentioned above, it refused to show up once meanwhile seemingly every other mon's item was showing up very frequently. The moment I evolved Sneasel into Sneaseler I got the item for Sneaseler within a couple in-game days, but have still yet to see the Climber's Bow. Ironically I got both heroes' evolved items within the same in-game day as testing the Gold Ticket.
It's not a big deal, but I was a little disappointed. But again, I have no idea what would even cause that.

Oh. Also as another bug report, assuming I'm not missing something, some dungeons have missions that are impossible. Mythical Field specifically I've encountered and tried to complete multiple times only to realize I can't go further into the dungeon than a mission would state. EX: Outlaw is on floor 15, but Mythical Field ends the moment you go through stairs on floor 13. Anything above 4*s(Outside of a very select few) on that dungeon is impossible and I'm a little hesitant to do other high ranked missions if they hover around the 20 floor range unless I know those maps are deep enough to reach those floors.


Edit: One other bug report. Ginseng cannot be used on the move Uproar. I'm assuming this is because it didn't do damage previously.

Enable cutscene skip.

I mean next version as in 3.1 and it's not out yet.

Sneasel and Sneasler exclusive items will get a rename.

The item spawn rate for Sneasler's item will be fixed in 3.1

If you have an ultimate item that cuts dungeon floors in half like Mechanical Array or Light Tetrahedron, you will have the same behavior as with bosses cutscenes in base game. This is perfectly intended.

I got a weird glitch. Sometimes when I go to the screen that has Xatu, Kecleon and Kangaskhan after a dungeon run, the game will stutter for a bit after a bit of time with graphical glitches and then after that's done the arrow in the menus disappear. The menus still work but it's hard to tell what your selecting. Saving and restarting the game fixes it but it's random when it does (the glitch not the fix). It started after going into the cafe one time and having the game freeze. The game no longer freezes in the cafe but whenI go to Xatu it'll do what I described above. I can go past and do whatever I need to do for storage needs but as soon as I go on the bottom path it will happen. I've restarted the game a couple times and have gotten farther without this happening. The only difference is that the team is Gible and Alolan Vulpix and it's happening at the time when you have to go to Amp Plains. It could be that it's weird at this specific point in the story as I haven't grinded dungeons in previous runs at this specific part in the story.

I just realized that there is also one more thing that's different. I have an unfinished special episode save as well. I also did a test with save states where I save stated, got the glitch, loaded, saved and went to title, loaded and it didn't trigger so it's something that resets every day in game. I'll finish the special episode and see if it still happens after that.

New info

[Xanderos]

Okay so I made a mistake and resetting the emulator is what fixes it. Just saving and going to the menu does nothing. Also finishing the special episode didn't fix it.

I see. Thank you for the quick response! So much has been added to the rom and it's amazing, haha.

One last thing, is the bit about Uproar intended? I made an edit, but I'm not sure if you were referring to things being perfectly intended for that or for the floor confusion. Regardless, I appreciate everyone's work here!

[Vivy]

And just asking for anyone's assistance here, what are the requirements for getting Shaymin? In the original you had to scale the mountain again and he would join automatically, but I did that and nothing happened. I'm sure I'm missing something here too, but if anyone active here would be kind enough to tell me I'd appreciate it!

On which emulator are you playing by chance?

Post-Darkrai, return to the peak and take the assignment

[Lord Woodrow]

I’m playing Bidoof’s Wish, the screen fades to black after Chimecho calls everyone for food (just after talking to the Kecleons) and then stays like that locked. I’ve tried quick loading but it has had no effect. I’ve also tried coming back to it after playing more of the main game, also no effect.

Have you tried the cutscene skip option?

Yes, I have. I went back and tried it a third time, it’s working now.

 

on another note, for the 100KO Tensei unlock, does it still count if I use an escape orb rather than complete the dungeon?

[ShamelessGuard]

Hello! So it seems Chingling clears the Recruit 'em All challenge so the recruit rate drops now. This challenge is no longer available for me to select in the Challenges section and Chingling is no where to be seen now lol. Is there any other way to re-enable this challenge, or will this be a post-game setting? I'm only at post-Dialga

 

[Eddie_IM]

Hi! I have enabled speedrun challenge at the start of the game but I'm not able to find how to get the toggle to turn it off. It doesn't seem to appear toghether with other challenges. In any case, the speedrun mode is just about deciding wether to receive or not a bag from porygon or it adds also more rewards during the completion of the main story?

[Setchaos]

The game unfortunately keeps crashing every time i walk into a room with the Kecleon Shop. I'm unable to exit the room before it crashes, and they show up randomly. So at this point i pretty much can't play the game at all.

[Setchaos]

Quick saved in a dungeon that kept freezing and the game froze. I reset and hit continue and it sent me out of the dungeon and wiped all of my money and items and counted the missions all as a loss. I lost a ton of really valuable items from it

You will have to be more precise about it. What did you do? Which emulator are you using? Under which conditions? Are you positive you are playing the latest version?

Just noting for anyone shiny searching, shiny gorebyss appears on floor 27 in the bottomless sea, not 29. I still haven't found the huntail. Milotic appears on 39 as written. For assistance in finding them, I would recommend using a radar orb and checking every enemy, killing easy ones to prevent lag

[threeruneblade]

Froslass is on floor 23, not 19

and 25? i'm not sure how this works

[threeruneblade]

I generally enjoy the ability changes but when a third of pokemon in the dungeons with hail/sandstorm get increased evasion it makes using anything without concentrator/other evasion boosters just simply unfun. Is there a counter to this that i'm missing? I don't want to be limited in teambuilding just to prevent missing 4-5-6 times in a row on a carnivine

Basic attack never misses, items never miss, perfect accuracy moves exist, you can choose to not interact, you are not limited in teambuilding when a mon dealing low damage can avoid hits. Shiny reports I'm not taking.

[Avurii]

What is the evolution requirement for player-cubone to evolve into Alolan Marowak instead of normal Marowak? I tried ascend stone + fire/dusk/moon stone and that did not work

[GoldTy]

quick question, not sure if this is a bug or not, but i accepted a quest from a Monferno to recover a stolen item. now the issue lies in that the job says the thief is on floor 17 of mystifying forest, which only has 14 floors. am i missing something? is there a secret that i need to unlock or is this unintentional?
