(Final patch released)Pokemon Dark Cry: The Legend of Giratina fixed alpha 2.6.7

This is a hack of Pokemon Fire Red
Creator: Mitchel1
Original thread:
https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=242588

Firstly, I must thank jiangzhengwenjzw for fixing up the Climb Boots thing and removing the end credits. This patch would not be possible without his help.
Special thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw, 猪小P, thctbm, 邪亚斯 for testing the game.

This hack was a pretty famous one back in 2009-2012, it's sad that this will never be finished. The truth is, it's almost impossible replicate what the creator planned to do to this hack. So the main purpose of making this patch is to make the four nice fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular obtainable in the actual game. So, don't expect this to be too faithful to the creator's idea.
The following things were fixed:
The broken tiles.
Some unfinished features like Climb boots.
The following things were added:
The four legendary fakemon: Regiwater, Regighost, Regifire and Pendular(They are the reasons why I made this patch)
The rest part of the region(Which is based off the world map)
The gyms(Which were based off the badges)
Some events(Not too much, I added them to make the game less empty)
Some legendaries are catchable after you beat the league(Pendular, the official regis, the legendary birds and Mew).

Two alternative rtc patches:

For those who wish to adjust the clock on your own, you can apply this patch to the normal version of this hack. Thank jiangzhengwenjzw for making this amazing patch:

Changelog:

This old in-game clock patch was made thanks to jiangzhengwenjzw's help.  With this patch, the clock will run 6 times faster than the real clock, and the pc time doesn't affect the in-game clock.(There could be some minor glitches in this one, but it shouldn't be gamebreaking, and this patch should work on most fire red rom hacks which has the same rtc system)

    2. Hey Hacksrepairman, I did some searching around the original thread, turns out Mitchel1 was planning to give Ukulele Pichu a major stat boost in the next alpha release. It would great if you could do the same since it's actually very weak. Also, the ruins Aplh puzzle on route 602, if you enter the ruins you can't leave it til you solve the puzzle.

    3. New oddity: Playing the latest version and was battling my rival. His Gastly knows wing attack

    4. I just changed ukulele Pichu's base stats, and the moveset of rival's pokemon was fixed as well. As for the Tomb of Kha'laba thing, I think I'm not going to change it, because the creator did that on purpose.

    1. Never mind I managed to just surf around, but now I'm stuck in the graveyard. There isn't an option to place the little girl letter at the grave spot, heck I don't even know which grave stone is hers..the only thing I can do is go to Regighost

    2. Those are the missions which the creator didn't finish, I have no idea about how those events would be like, so I left them unfinished. You should ignore those since they are not really done.

  6. Gotcha! Spotted a few more errors. The player sprite becomes glitchy when you fish or fly. Also, if you save in the first gym before battling the gym leader and you reset, the Soinerak vehicles reset too, making it impossible for you to leave the gym. Also, where do you get surf?

    1. The first gym was done by the creator so I can't do much to it, as for the gliitched sprite, it's strange that I didn't see any.

  7. Pokemon Sword and Shield GBA English hey I wondering if you can help fix this game a bit. It has a lot of bugs and it's hard to progress after a while. It only goes up to one gym but in reality when you play it, it only lets you go passed getting the train ticket, then the screen goes black.

  8. Hey Hacksrepairman, I found another oddity and a game crashing bug. Diglett's cry is heavily distorted and high pitched. The game crashing bug is when you interact with the sign post on route 613

    1. That one doesn't have enough unused maps or a finished world map, so it's almost impossible for me to fix that one.
