This game is so nice. But I'm constantly crashing during trainer battles. The battle UI will completely disappear and I'm stuck in battle with no option but to soft reset. And it happens in the same battles. Almost Everytime. But I've seen people beat the game. Am I doing something wrong? Also for some reason it keeps crashing my OBS during stream? Anyone else having these problems? To be clear. I love this game. And very much want to play through it!
The game is quite broken in several different ways:
1) Sometimes you just don't get your starter. I had to use Beldum the entire run as my Mudkip was nowhere to be found.
2) Save before EVERY battle; you will need to soft reset often to get around potential when starting or in battles.
3) The level scaling is not great. One of the major fights against the Mercenary Yior, is MUCH higher level than other fights in the area with a level 40 Lucario.
4) Whiting out sometimes clears your team and refreshes back to the last save. Make sure you save often!
5) XP managment is tough in this as no matter how many pokemon are in the party, the amount of XP does not change i.e. if you were to get 1000XP and have 2 mons in the party it should be 500XP per mon. Instead, it is the same number distributed across all 6 mons in the party and does not increase or decrease when more or less mons are in the party.
6) This is niche and a bit nitpicky, however, playing on an ultra wide monitor (Odyssey G7) causes the UI to block important information like hitpoints in battle, pokemon on the summary page, and some box functions.
7) The Delibird Exchange is quite buggy when you have low money. It seems that you can go negative in the store but it will not allow you to close the shop after that.
8) The dialogue exchange between the Magma Grunts often gets stuck on screen after or in battles and take a while to be removed.
I understand that this is a demo, thus, I was expecting a lot of bugs. I want to express that I am very pleased with the experience. This game has the potential to be something BIG. At this time, I do not wish to continue playing until some of these items are fixed. I will wait until the youtubers catch on and post content on it before I return.
Anyone else have an issue getting past Mercenary Yior? I'm finding that I am running out of attack points and I cant buy elixers to restore the attack points. Really fun and the graphics are phenomenal.
Anyone else having move learning issues? Some moves are being learned twice even when it’s already learned. My Horsea is lvl 30 and still only knows 3 moves. Maybe it’s just the pokemon, not sure though.
The only other bugs that are annoying are the border glitches, the battle animation glitch which makes you soft reset, and the grass where you get stuck in a patch.
Overall the game is awesome and cannot wait for the full release because this is so much fun. Once the bugs are gone it’ll be even better.
I'm not sure if it's intended or not but hitting sprint and a direction input at the same time after a wild encounter has made me instantly get into another wild encounter 8x in a row now
I started my game with level 5 pokemon even though they are all above 30 and i'm seeing pictures of treecko and bellossom. I later realised that i was on an old version of the game and moved all my previous save files onto the new version files. I have relaunched and checked i am on the newest version. I now cannot even see my pokemon or even battle in the game as it freezes me and my pokemon do not appear. I can't even attempt to heal them at the tents. Does anyone have a fix for this or is going through the same thing?
please fix this game i was trying to get rid of the revive cloned (shiny) swampert and vulpix i had by releasing them....... and now my other two are gone. and i even saved not realizing it'd get rid of my originals. actually upset about this. (i just beat the lucario person)
Interesting bug that happens with Blizzard; when it freezes a Pokemon that faints (in the wild) it doesn't play the victory theme and music goes lower in pitch until you go into another fight.
Hi, I've only made it through the first couple of cutscenes, but to say the least, I am thoroughly impressed! The game looks beautiful, but I did want to mention that theres a wall collision issue in the back of the forest on the mystery island before you go up the stairs, and you can walk right off the map.
I also want to ask if is there a better place to report these bugs, like a Discord server? I think a bug forum on discord could help clean up the bug reports in a much more manageable way. LMK if you want any help 👍
hope you're not overwhelmed by the amount of bug complaints. we all know and agree that the game is awesome regardless and it's definitely worth the wait. keep up the good work man 👍
BUG: I saved my game before the battle of the two grunts that are together in the start of the game, and now when i try to load in i just fall through the ground to the void. Any fix that are available?
Yeah, when you enter the save file start spamming the ~TAB~ button (or the in game menu where it shows yout ~bag~ and ~pokemon~), it puts you above ground, if it doesnt work for the first time close the game without saving and try again until it puts you back on top, then save when it works to not bug again.
Warning: i had some minor issues after correcting it, but nothing big just visual bugs
I think I found a bug? my pokemon's moves were reset to only growl and tackle after using PC before battling the pink haired girl in the forest... kinda killed my run since now my Combusken lost its only fire move... and I saved before I noticed :( Also! Bounce (for Combusken anyways) doesn't work... it'll bounce into the air then it won't come back in the next move so I had to soft reset to get out of the battle scene. I hope these reports help! I love where the game is headed but I think I'm going to wait for the next update before playing some more since its still buggy
Volbeat and Illumise are not gender locked. Also, I ran across a Horsea in the grass, not sure if thats intentional. Also, the game soft locks if you have dual monitors and go to another window during combat. Oh, and Swablu is normal/fighting?!?
FR: Je suis un énorme joueur français de Pokémon et mon jeu Pokémon favori est Pokémon Emeraude. Alors quand j'ai su qu'il y avait un "remake" de fan en développement j'ai sauté sur l'oaccasion et téléchargé la démo. Et je ne suis pas déçu, les graphismes sont magnifiques, l'utilisation de l'Unreal Engine permet la création d'environements chaleureux et très beaux, des effets de particules qui rendre les combats et l'exploration plus dynamiques, c'est le meilleur choix à faire pour sublimer la licence Pokémon. J'ai malheureusement eu beaucoup de crash durant ma session de jeux (environ une vingtaine et 4h30 de jeu). C'est un travail titanesque que vous avez fait et vous avez tout mon soutien pour mener ce projet à bien. En attendant de pouvoir jouer à la version complète je vous souhaite bon courage et merci de redonner vie à ce chef d'oeuvre qu'est Pokémon Emeraude.
EN: I'm a huge French Pokémon player, and my favorite game is Pokémon Emerald. So when I heard that a fan "remake" was in development, I jumped at the opportunity and downloaded the demo. And I’m not disappointed— the graphics are stunning, and the use of Unreal Engine allows for warm and beautiful environments, along with particle effects that make battles and exploration feel more dynamic. It's the best possible choice to enhance the Pokémon franchise.
Unfortunately, I experienced a lot of crashes during my play session (around twenty crashes over 4 hours and 30 minutes of gameplay).
What you've accomplished is a monumental task, and you have my full support in bringing this project to completion.
While waiting to play the full version, I wish you the best of luck—and thank you for breathing new life into this masterpiece that is Pokémon Emerald.
It looks amazing. The only issue I have had is getting stuck in some weird spectator mode after switching pokemon and not choosing my next move quick enough. Wishing you luck with this project it looks amazing already :]
so i downloaded the demo today. while in fullscreen borderless when i open the menu with pokemon, bag, save ect ect. i click pokemon and the screen rolls over to the pokemon list. but there is a big white box covering the lefthand side of the screen going up and down, i can see a little of the health bar but the name and pokemon picture are in the white box
I've hit a bug, saved game before a trainer battle, my trainer wasnt throwing out my pokemon so i soft reset and now i fall through the map as soon as i load in.
The game is good, but has a ton of bugs that makes it completely umplayable. Stuck in battles, bad rendering, infinite xp glitch, and the worst, now, im falling infinitely in the void and soft reset doesnt save me from that, I'm legit stuck and theres nothing I can do. I spend more time closing, opening and soft resetting the game, losing everything till the save, than actually playing. Pls fix this breaking bugs.
Hi there, have been playing the game all morning & enjoying it a ton.
Yesterday when I first downloaded the game, I encountered a bug where I could not open the briefcase. It never highlighted where I could select it even after reading the available newspapers. Today, when I restarted on a new save, no issues, I received a Shiny Torchic within one soft reset.
10/10 Tradeoff.
I am also able to replicate a bug where the battle will not continue any time I use the move astonish, the following text just will never show.
Third bug, at least I assume, is that opponents pp does not count correctly. To test this I used detect 30 times versus the lvl. 18 Vulpix who loves Flamethrower, and they continue to spam it long after they should be out of PP for the given move. (15).
All minor things, but will continue to update throughout my playthrough.
Thank you so very much for this wonderful game & so many of the little design choices I appreciate deeply.
First of all, the game is amazing, Im enjoying it like a child.
I have a question, I dont know if it was mentioned before but is normal that with exp share on when a pokemon on the team level up he doesnt learn any move? It is happening in my account with several pokemon, Lotad, Psyduck, Beautifly...
this was happening to me too! my Beautifly and Combusken learned moves but my Lotad/Lombre, Psyduck and Pikachu never did. and my Combusken just learned flying type moves? I was hoping for more fire types lol
Is anyone else facing an issue where turning right in a patch of grass spawns a pokemon? I've found myself stuck on multiple occasions because the only way is right and im just permanently entering a battle
Try to hold down the walk button immediately after you won the fight (during black loading screen). The character will start moving even before the world is visible and hopefully escape this one patch of grass.

que pongo en mistery gift
I updated my game to version 2.1.0.1 and I'm still encountering the EXP Share infinite leveling bug!!!
FYI. I think it is because there are some dead pokemon in the team, then the expSharing bug happened

despues de derrotar al mercenario yior que mas se hace?
Anyone else have an issue getting past Mercenary Yior? I'm finding that I am running out of attack points and I cant buy elixers to restore the attack points. Really fun and the graphics are phenomenal.
you can restore PP at the tents where you buy potions and pokeballs
ah okay. Thanks so much for that tip. I’ll have to try that when I play the game again next time.
Anyone else having move learning issues? Some moves are being learned twice even when it’s already learned. My Horsea is lvl 30 and still only knows 3 moves. Maybe it’s just the pokemon, not sure though.

Did anyone else get a free Beldum after beating the first team magma grunt?
I did! I thought that was supposed to happen though
It is supposed to happen, it's a gift for the demo
I'm not sure if it's intended or not but hitting sprint and a direction input at the same time after a wild encounter has made me instantly get into another wild encounter 8x in a row now
Literally 3 mins into the game I found Heaven and cannot progress.
Error while closing the delibird thingy very fast (pressing twice or more on close) :

KO'd pokemon should not be able to get frozen.
I hope you make a android version game looks like Fun
The game is GREAT!!! But it crashes so much and freezes
Hi, I've only made it through the first couple of cutscenes, but to say the least, I am thoroughly impressed!

I think a bug forum on discord could help clean up the bug reports in a much more manageable way. LMK if you want any help 👍
Did you find any way around this issue cause I can't play past this part?
I just walked back through the glitched spot. From what I experienced, there was no collision and I could walk right through it.
The demo doesn't seem to support Dual Sense (ps5) controllers. It's not responding to input from that gamepad.
add it as a non steam game to Steam. my PS5 controller works that way
hope you're not overwhelmed by the amount of bug complaints. we all know and agree that the game is awesome regardless and it's definitely worth the wait. keep up the good work man 👍
100% 👍 keep moving forward!
Is Shiny Beldum even possible? i was huntin it for over 10hrs now, still no luck :c
Yeah, it's possible I got one after like 30 S/R. You are just hitting bad luck sorry.
i am hunting it for like 4 hours and still no sucess
Im still at it too
I will sit and watch as this game ages like fine wine.
In the meantime, a nuzlocke & randomiser mode might just complete this.
Same thing happened to me. Did you find a fix yet?
Yeah, when you enter the save file start spamming the ~TAB~ button (or the in game menu where it shows yout ~bag~ and ~pokemon~), it puts you above ground, if it doesnt work for the first time close the game without saving and try again until it puts you back on top, then save when it works to not bug again.

tysm for making this game though! I hope our comments help improve the final game since demos are expected to be buggy, I love playing it so far!
Volbeat and Illumise are not gender locked. Also, I ran across a Horsea in the grass, not sure if thats intentional. Also, the game soft locks if you have dual monitors and go to another window during combat. Oh, and Swablu is normal/fighting?!?
Where do I get the exp share
it’s in the settings :)
thx bro I just figured out :D

Hey, i tried to play the game but when i open it just crash. What can i do?
It looks amazing. The only issue I have had is getting stuck in some weird spectator mode after switching pokemon and not choosing my next move quick enough. Wishing you luck with this project it looks amazing already :]
me too
so i downloaded the demo today. while in fullscreen borderless when i open the menu with pokemon, bag, save ect ect. i click pokemon and the screen rolls over to the pokemon list. but there is a big white box covering the lefthand side of the screen going up and down, i can see a little of the health bar but the name and pokemon picture are in the white box
changing to fullscreen fixed this however
I've hit a bug, saved game before a trainer battle, my trainer wasnt throwing out my pokemon so i soft reset and now i fall through the map as soon as i load in.
i literally commented what you said, and the solution too, right below your comment
The game is good, but has a ton of bugs that makes it completely umplayable. Stuck in battles, bad rendering, infinite xp glitch, and the worst, now, im falling infinitely in the void and soft reset doesnt save me from that, I'm legit stuck and theres nothing I can do. I spend more time closing, opening and soft resetting the game, losing everything till the save, than actually playing. Pls fix this breaking bugs.
I found out that you can fix the void falling glitch if you instantly open the game menu, right before you start falling
Hello, I've been playing for about an hour and so far it's just small issues but this is what I ran into so far.
When using the move Astonish the game gets stuck and the opponent won't follow up with their turn.
When selecting "Fight", "PKM", "Bag", "Run", or "Back" the game will constantly get stuck on that menu until i spam back and select multiple times.
I'll update if I run into anything else.
beldum shiny odds???? what a hell its impossible get one
How do i get all starters in one run

game wont run for me crashes with fatal error no code just says will close now program now. it may be due to me having a low end laptop from 2017
same problem, but i don’t think that’s because of ur pc
First of all, the game is amazing, Im enjoying it like a child.
I have a question, I dont know if it was mentioned before but is normal that with exp share on when a pokemon on the team level up he doesnt learn any move? It is happening in my account with several pokemon, Lotad, Psyduck, Beautifly...
Thanks for this wonderful game and keep it up!
this was happening to me too! my Beautifly and Combusken learned moves but my Lotad/Lombre, Psyduck and Pikachu never did. and my Combusken just learned flying type moves? I was hoping for more fire types lol

my revive cloned my mudkip hell yeah
Lmao a win is a win
