(lang. hack) The Japanese Pokémon HG / SS with official USA language

I messed around and finally found a solution.
You have to make a .bat file because xDelta doesn't seem to be listening.

This is how you do it.
Open Notepad
Type in xdelta patch NAME OF PATCH.patch "YOUR CLEAN NDS POKEMON NAME FILE.nds" "YOUR CLEAN NDS POKEMON FILE NAME AGAIN_patched.nds"

(Example: xdelta patch PKM HG + SS v1.5.patch "4159 Pokemon Heart Gold (J)(Xenophobia).nds" "4159 Pokemon Heart Gold (J)(Xenophobia)_patched.nds"

Save this as a .bat file in the directory containing xDelta / Delta Gui / the clean nds rom / the patch file. Or save it as .txt and change the file extension to .bat.

Double click your new .bat file.
It should generate the rom now.

 

Question: In OP's post it says "No$GBA 2.6: Works, but freezes in-game so save a lot!"

So what's up with the AR code? Is that supposed to fix the freezing, or is that for something else?

I remember playing the Japanese rom ages ago, it didn't freeze at all, so why say that it freezes here? Unless this trick causes it to start freezing, which sort of defeats the point..

 

wafflox Yo dude thanks its worked. Rykin keep up the good work.

 

What exactly do you mean by this? as far as I know, he's replacing pkdex descriptions with info from the U rom. What exactly do you mean "current one are from old games?" o.o

 

Another thing thats not top priority is that the T.V in the hero's room is not translated (I can't tell really because I can't get the 2.0 patch, so I'm using 1.5)

 

''No$GBA 2.6: Works, but freezes in-game so save a lot!"

Will this get fixed or it will still always freeze?

I'm at the third Gym [ Corrupted my first 1] and got no freezes or anything on No$gba so far.

 

Hey i was just wondering... because this is out, is other still working on fixing the USA version or preparing for the Australia and Europe Version?
Or is this one it? I would like to also have the patched/fixed HG/SS USA Version in the future.
I know this version is good and I am happy and been playing so far to the game with smiles, but Nintendo have different events for different versions of the games. So me living in North America will more likely miss the events in my area


Also I am wondering the Color Pichu event that is out for the USA version of D/P/PL if I transfer the Pichu to HG/SS this version will the event still go on?

 

No idea, I'm wondering if this fix screws around with anything before I try it. I played though nearly the entire Japanese rom ages ago, never froze for me back then, but curious as to whether this causes it to start freezing on no$gba.

 

Oyeah did you fix the typo for the hm and tm pocket?
im still on v1 so im just wondering

 

No, it's not fixed yet.

 

I downloaded the beta version of the 2.0 AP ROM of SoulSilver, but the Pokedex is still in Japanese and Pokemon names are still uppercase. Was there something I was supposed to change in the process?

 

You want to know what I did? I downloaded the event Pokemon themselves and placed them in my game via Pokesav. I can't exactly recall the link where I got them from, but there's a database of Pokemon files, along with the events as well. GBATemp had a link in one forum. Google is your friend here.

 

Is this or this what you mean?

 

He already stated this back on page 18.

 

I'm just reporting in on HG beta patch ver 2.0. for the no$gba2.6a with the no$zoomer:

(This list report below is just checklisting what were done and not done in ver 2.0. Hopefully this can be some sort of base to everyone else's game, whether they're playing on a flashcart, the emu I'm using or any other emu's, and yeah I actually look'd through this ENTIRE thread before confiming and deconfirming the stuff below what everybody said happened in their game)

- No freeze, nor crashes with the AR on RAW for like 2 and half hours or so
- pokedex descrip is translated but not the buttons
- Pokemon are in lower case (I don't really mind or care)
- Some or most of the trainers names are in english/japanese
- Pokemon Status are still in Jap
- And also when I get TM's and/or HM's the "a" in the and of TM's and HM's Pockets is still missing

Okay, that's all I have to report good luck and keep up the good work, Ryqib122, k?

 

Not exactly, but I'm gonna go ahead and assume the second link is the main source of the PKM files I have. Same thing though. It'll activate the event.

 

Eh, I used pokesav to rename my pokemon, then they get boosted exp, how do I fix this?

 

Make sure the OT (Original trainer) , Trainer ID, and Secret ID match. I noticed when opening Pokesav, the name reverted to ",,,". Make sure you input your exact name and Trainer / Secret ID.

 

Yeah, I just went to edit my pokemon, click Input OT Trainer on all of them, thanks, it works.

 

Update: I'm about to start the Elite Four after getting all 8 Johto badges. I think I'll do that tomorrow, though.
