Description
Pokemon Weird Type Fun is a basic rom hack with an even simpler premise: mislead even series veterans about type pairings. Pokemon Weird Type Fun introduces 18 fully new types and a newly revamped pokedex, making the ever-present Kanto feel a little less familiar.
While Pokemon Weird Type Fun follows the basic FireRed tale and structure, several characters and backstory have been altered to keep things interesting. Event-only locales (also known as Navel Rock and Birth Island) are now playable, and a few additional locations and events have been added.
Features
- All types have been replaced with newer alternatives. Type matchups do not match the original.
- 400-ish pokémon gathered from up to Generation 9 (including Hisui and Paldea). There are also a few beta Pokémon and Fakemon.
- Each Pokémon has been redesigned to fit its new type (think Fool’s Gold, but more nonsensical).
- Moves and items are updated to match the new types.
- Mostly faithful to Gen III Kanto, with some new twists.
Coming Someday, Eventually, Maybe
- Expansions to Pokédex
- More of Johto made accessible
- Other new areas and events
Changelog
v1.93
- Meloetta and Thundurus had their locations listed wrong in the documentation. They’re now correct.
- Renamed the documentation file from PokémonLocations to PokédexGuide for clarity
- Halved the time eggs take to hatch for most species, reduced it significantly for the rest
- Rotom, Mimikyu, Poipole and Naganadel can now breed
- Added an extra Shiny Stone to Route 7 and an extra Chaos Stone to Route 16
Known Issues
Nothing groundbreaking has been discovered through testing, but I’ll list what I know here for reference.
- Girl player character’s palette messes up in the opening sequence if you give the rival a custom name. Won’t affect the rest of the game.
- Shrinking sprite also gets pixelated
- Rival walks up to the wrong ball when choosing starter, gets the right pokémon though
- Rival’s first optional battle near Viridian doesn’t trigger
- Pokédex automatically records some late-game legendaries as seen
- Teachy TV can crash the game when used, hence it is not given out.
- When giving the items Whipped Dream, Faller Stone, Gemstone, Plain Stone, Shiny Stone, Razor Claw, Hourglass, Sweet Heart, Loud Whistle, Chaos Stone, Premium Gem, or Link Cable for pokemon to hold, you can end up with some pretty glitchy effects (anything from item duplication to turning boxed pokemon to bad eggs). So play around with that at your own risk lol. These items can be used and deposited to the PC like normal as long as they’re not attached to pokémon.
- Several trainers have pokémon they’re not intended to have, mainly some rival fights
- The move Camouflage has rather nonsensical effects
- Dodydra’s front sprite’s beak does…stuff…when it uses Fusion Dance
- TM icon colors don’t match the types in bag
- Void-type moves are much weaker than they should be based on their base power
