Hacking Pokémon Emerald to make Pokémon walk with you

Video Description

I created a hack of Pokémon Emerald that allows Pokémon to follow behind the player in the overworld. I did this by using the C disassembly created by the people at PRET. By importing all the sprites Gen I - Gen III from Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver into this game I hijacked a certain already existing sprite and using the animation frames I added (recolored with a special process to use the Gen III palettes) let the Pokémon walk behind the player in the overworld. In the video I go over the process and discuss aspects of GBA programming, certain GBA graphics modes and sprite palettes.

For example, a level 5 Ralts could become any Pokémon at that level, with all the associated moves of that new Pokémon.
