Resource: pret, the team who is decompiling every Pokémon game

https://github.com/pret

If you want to start romhacking, or are just curious about how the games were put together, there is no better time than now. Thanks to the efforts of pret and the open source community, every mainline Pokémon game up to Emerald has been decompiled.

I mean most members here were probably aware of these, but I thought it would be helpful for anyone who didn’t know these existed

I think this community could serve as a great repository for resources on romhacking. If only because much information on romhacking is not very easily searchable, or old, or trapped in forums. Surfacing that info here would add value to this community. And if the instance goes down, at least federated instances will still have the info.

A Lemmy community for discussion about Pokémon ROM hacks and sharing useful tips and ROM files.

1.) Be nice to each other. In discussions and when creating posts be kind. No bigotry, slurs, or other hate speech.
