This is a python program that will randomize Pokemon Red. This randomizer will be focusing on procedural randomness, the eventual goal is being able to randomize the entire map so it's a completely new game, but still is beatable. The other goal of this is creating a good framework for a general randomizer that can be applied to any game.
Prereq's:
- Python 3
- Whatever Pre-requisites Pokemon Red Disassembly has
- Clone this repository
- Inside this repository, clone the Pokemon Red disassembly.
- Assuming all pre-req's are taken care of, run
python red.py <args>
Arguments (may be out of date, see process method of red.py for up to date information)
Sets the seed of random to value before every randomization method
Randomizes the 3 starter pokemon in Oaks lab
Randomizes the typing of every pokemon
Randomizes the locations that going through warps takes you (ala OOT Beta Quest Mod).
Randomizes the connections between overworld maps, currently doesn't use any logic when randomizing, so it's very probable to create inaccessible maps
Does a number of things to speed up the intro of the game
- Shortens Oak's speech before the game starts
- Places the player in Oaks Lab at game start, being able to choose a pokemon right away
- Player no longer has to fight Blue in Oaks Lab
- Oak does not interrupt the player when they first step onto grass in Pallet Town
Randomly replaces every wild pokemon slot with a different random pokemon.
Does nothing but build the current state of the repository. Useful for testing things manually
Does nothing, but causes the repository to be reset back to vanilla
Randomly reorganizes the constants in pokemon_constants.asm, messes up some sprites but the game seems playable.
Randomly reorganizes the constants in pokedex_constants.asm, completely messes up all pokemon sprites I have seen.
