    We have a new 1.0.9 bug fix update now live!
    The new patch is in the 1.0.9 link in the description. Old saves SHOULD work fine, however please save in a pokecenter before updating otherwise you risk corrupting your save. You should again patch your own legally acquired CLEAN BASE YELLOW ROM, do NOT apply the patch to an already patched Yellow Legacy ROM. Please be smart, take a backup of your save before updating just to be safe.
    New Patch: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZIWtHvyn51snAM4lFJEyuDyLrLt-TF-i?usp=drive_link
    Patcher: www.marcrobledo.com/RomPatcher.js/
    PSA: Before you get started patching anything, load your base yellow ROM into rom patcher js (or a hash checker) and check the SHA-1 hash. The base yellow hash should be SHA-1: cc7d03262ebfaf2f06772c1a480c7d9d5f4a38e1. If it is not exactly this, you have a modified or bootleg yellow ROM and you will have to find a real one. Similarly the hash of your 1.0.9 patched ROM should be SHA-1: 5cedd531b157ccebc74dbaae25f7945711975624, again if this is not exactly this, you have done something wrong and should repatch.

      Grass is still extremely redundant though. Water covers the same weaknesses, except it also beats fire. You can say the same for rock and lightning as well. Fixing the accuracy for those is a nice change though because rock moves are good if they had higher accuracy. Though by fixing some of the type weirdness and weird moves that does change the meta a little bit. Grass still isn't going to be non redundant, but they might have more use in the end game content that was added.
      If they limited the types so that each type can only be good against 2 types. Then that might have fixed some of the huge problems the type chart still has today. In a way that makes it so you don't need to add more types to the game. Yet still could for flavor anyway.

      Out of context, yes, it’s very interesting.
      However, it does allow the team to deal with the issue of “smart” AI where certain trainers would use super-effective-type moves against you endlessly… even if those moves don’t do any damage
      For a prime example, one of Lance’s Pokémon can be cheesed by throwing in a poison type pokemon - even at a super low level - and Lance’s Pokémon will continue to use Agility, which is a Psychic type attack, and because trainer Pokémon don’t have to deal with PP limitations like the player does, it will continue to do this until you either switch Pokémon or Struggle out

    I just finished my playthrough of this and I have to say it was absolutely amazing! I love how the pokemon can now actually learn good moves on level up. And I love the changes to moves I would never consider before. Like using Skull bash on my Taurus was so much fun!
    Also, completing the Pokedex for the first time in my life has been a blast! I rotated my team throughout the entire game, and that kept it really fun and engaging throughout the whole game.
    And last but not least, the changes to the trainers/gym leaders also just made it so much more fun and special to fight them. And it was sorely needed too! Thank you Smith and the Legacy Team for crafting this absolute masterpiece. 10/10

    I think one fun thing to mention for Agatha's team is that her having Marowak fits in 3 ways. First it's spooky as you mentioned. Second it's a reference to it Alolan Ghost type cousin. And third it's a reference to her sister, Bertha, being a ground type specialist

      The line is literally based on a horse. Horses kick when they're spooked so it makes sense.

Something like that, I haven't re-read his comment. Anyways, point being that Jump Kick would've made more sense than HJK since horses kick with their legs and not their knees.

    Holy Crap dude! While watching this video I was thinking "I recognize his voice from somewhere", and then I realized you're the guy who used the do the Zombies videos that I'd always watch in high school and college lol! Glad to see you making content for Pokemon now man!! Congrats on the romhack, it sounds awesome. Subbed B)
