Known Issues - E14.1

[DJ Mewdeon ft Dan Punk 43]

Currently as Pokemon Essentials' battle system is incomplete and Reborn isn't a finished game, there are some prevalent issues and bugs in the game. I wanted to make this thread in order to filter out lots of reports on the same issues.

This time, however, I'm going to try and use it to track bugs that have been noted/fixed so as to better inform users of what's going on in the world. I'll try to update this as much as I can and we'll see how well that goes ....

E14.1.1 KNOWN ISSUES

• Randomized IVs from breeding will always result in 0. (Fixed, reupload soon)
• There are some inconsistencies with double kick. See page 3 for further details.
• Intimidate doesn't activate defiant.
• The metronome item doesn't seem to work.
• Break's (magma gang) Litleo is another frozen pokemon in combat.

E14's listing spoilered:

E14 KNOWN ISSUES

• Moxie may or may not be working, but the text does not display regardless.
• Using a healing item where it would have no effect may cause the player to lose a turn. (?)
• Flinch sometimes persists onto the next turn. (?)
• Destiny bond and Aftermath don't do anything. (?)
• The seasonal variations in Deerling don't always match up across the front and back sprites. (?)
• Flame burst doesn't deal slight damage to pokemon adjacent to the target in double battles.
• Destiny knot causes breeding errors. You won't be able to get your egg if you use it.
• Some shiny sprites don't have a transparent background:
  • Ralts (back)
  • Gardevoir (back)
  • Nuzleaf (back)
  • Shiftry (back)
  • Steelix (back)
  • Wingull (front)
  • Goomy (egg)
• ... and more to come ...

And as before, the Known Issues section of the Readme is going to be here:

#==============================================================================#
Some Known Issues
#==============================================================================#
* Pokesnax gained prior to E13 are glitched, can be used infinitely, and cannot be discarded.

* Trace currently will not copy transformed abilities.
* Gen 3-5 Shiny Backsprites have not been updated to Gen 5 style yet

So you don't or do want us to put bugs we find on this page?

Some shiny sprites (ex. Gardevoir's back sprite) have a pure white background instead of a transparent one.

* Gen 3-5 Shiny Backsprites have not been updated to Gen 5 style yet

I -think- it's only 4 and 5 now with the updated shiny sprites being completed for E14

I have tended to leave the thread open in the past to discussion about errors and bugposting not found in the known issues, though much of the bugs should be separate threads first, I'd think.

Some shiny sprites (ex. Gardevoir's back sprite) have a pure white background instead of a transparent one.

True, I remember UnproAm saying something about a few of those. I think it's just alpha layer issues which Ame can resolve quickly, but if we get a concise list, that'd be nice.

I'll leave that until the above issue is resolved.

Added a few things to the list, I'm assuming you don't mind me doing that from time to time.

[DJ Mewdeon ft Dan Punk 43]

I don't mind that at all and would probably prefer it to the alternative where I'm the only one who edits it accordingly. Thanks Sheep.

[Sheep 27]

Hmm, destiny bond was included in the readme but I didn't read it (doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose?), do you think it would be better to unspoiler that and just add them to the list like we'd picked them up out of bug reporting. Less likely to get overlooked that way but it's your thread.

So i picked one of the new protagonist, the white one, and i quitted the game, restarted it and now I'm invisible, any solutions ?

Try restarting again?

I'm assuming you saved after selecting Decibel as your new character?

Yeah i guess i'm not familiar with the names, i did tried to restart but still invisible

[Jericho 114]

Would you mind posting your save file?

EDIT: But please do it as Sheep said below.

Probably a good idea to create a new thread for your issue though. Save file fixes don't belong here, head over to troubleshooting and if it's a recurring issue we'll add it to the list here.

You can do this like so: (via forum FAQ)

Q: How do I attach my save file?

1. While in posting mode, you should see an option in the bottom right corner that says 'More Reply Options', click that.

2. Down on the bottom left you will see a Paper Clip and 'Attach Files', click on the button there that says ' Choose Files...'

3. To locate your save file go to Local Disk (C:) > Users > [Your Username] > Saved Games > Pokemon Reborn - and select 'game.rxdata'

The battle system is glitchy whereby extra turns occur after the opponing pokemon has fainted, its sprite still stays there. And it gives xp while the sprite is there

It seems to be due to issues with Moxie, I'm assuming you were using Scrafty or another pokemon with Moxie.

[Sheep 27]

That's a side effect of moxie not working combined with the gen 3 battle mechanics. Moxie's already been mentioned and I'm not sure if the outdated battle mechanics are considered an issue per say.

My hidden abilities are gone, blaziken now has blaze instead of speed boost

[Qaaz 4]

Use an Ability Capsule

Assuming an update from E13, the only caveat with this release is that abilities of some Pokemon may shuffle around a bit as a side effect of the base script update. Can't be helped, sorry. Chug those Ability Capsules.

I have some bug in ep 14:

Can't create rainbow field (I tried using rain dance after drought and drought in overworld rain);

Magic bounce doesn't work (espeon didn't bounce back Terra rocks);

Blast burn magmortar (WTF);

Lapis sticker is broken (the boy is in the house but the mother doesn't give me my sticker);

During cut-scenes, the words sometimes jump ahead of the button pressing that we do as players to move the conversation forward. I don't know if this is done by design but, it makes it hard to catch each piece of this genius dialogue.

Not intended, but difficult to catch and fix such that it works for everyone.

I'm not sure if it's a bug, but the music will not change from area to area, it's stuck in the track from route... 3? the are we pushed crustles around in. It doesn't matter if I go into battle or a pokemon center or anything, it stays on the one loop

[finkeltinklewinkle 2]

exirc255, have you tried switching the music around using the pokegear yet? Could be that one of the songs was clicked and played on repeat.

[exirc255 0]

oh my goodness, I'm such a dumb butt, that was it, thank you finkle
