ROM Hack Pokémon Rutile Ruby and Star Sapphire: OR/AS Challenge Mode ROMhack!

[kraan]

someone help me out here, exactly how hard is this rom?
im using another one(sinking sapphire) and its hard as balls, i had 3 pokemon at lv20+ by the time i beat the first gym and the remaining 3 are 15 +.
i have a feeling its gonna become unplayable down the road...

is this one easier than that?

It's hard, but not annoyingly hard. I've been nuzlocking it, and that's near impossible. Without self-imposed rules, I wouldn't say it's terrible.

Honey is available at the start of the game (before pokemart's start selling pokeballs) but after you get the pokedex they stop selling them. When do they come back? I only bought 10 so my EV training is only half done on my starter.

Capture a Surskit. They obtain Sweet Scent early.

The level cap is significantly higher (Lv.100) as opposed to Drayano's RR/SS (70-80ish). I've gotten my third badge and so far, I've cleaned up with my level 35 Marshtomp. EXP Share is extremely hard to balance with it seems.

Did OP really need to give Roxanne a Carbink?

Just finished my second run of Star Sapphire! Awesome romhack I sent a PM about the Aqua.

I have a problem
I used braindump just as the tutorial said, but I do not see any created folders, it only created an 000400000011c400.cxi file, which I have no idea what to do with.
Thank you for every reply.

umm my rom hack freezes at startup (from homebrew) it displays text and then just goes black with particles on left side (seems normal on video), but then I waited for 10 minutes and still black screen. Any ideas???

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT! I will begin work on Umbra Moon and Nova Sun (Names subject to change) immediately after beating Sun/Moon this holiday season. The hacks will feature difficulty adjustments and reworked battles similar to Rutile Ruby/Star Sapphire, with a focus again being on keeping everything legal for online use while providing easier access to competitive items, EV training, Egg hatching, and a challenging single-player campaign.

Is there any documentation for it?
Specificaly, where can I find Zygarde?

The first post states

• Everything caught in these hacks is 100% legit for trade!

So I would imagine Zygarde is in the same place as in the normal games.

Which would mean, in turn, that Zygarde (as well as Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, Xerneas, and Yveltal) is unavailable in RR/SS. This is not a bug or oversight.

I made this ROM hack into a CIA using Asia81's pack hack, but when I boot the installed CIA it shows the Nintendo 3ds screen then locks up on a black screen. I did change the title ID and unique id if that matters. Any help would be appreciated.

Try without changing the title ID/unique ID. if you can't do that because you already have Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby installed, just use the HANS method. It works with cartridges, eshop, or CIA games.
