Installation

To patch a vanilla Pokémon Red/Blue Version ROM, download the .bps patch file for your version of choice from the Assets section below, and apply the patch with any patching software. I recommend this online patcher.

  • For Solus Red / Solus Green, patch a vanilla Red Version ROM
  • For Solus Blue, patch a vanilla Blue Version ROM

To instead build the latest version from source, follow the instructions in the install guide.

To build this particular release (if it's not the most current) from source, substitute the git clone instructions in the install guide with instead downloading the Source code archive folder listed in the Assets section below, extracting, and building from there.

New in this release

  • Changed wording in Field Move teaching prompt: "Learn this as a temporary FIELD MOVE?" -> "Teach this as a temporary FIELD MOVE?"
  • Changed Blaine's sprite to the Silph President sprite, like in Yellow Version
  • Changed type matchup for GHOST -> PSYCHIC to 2x effectiveness (Super Effective) instead of 0x effectiveness
  • Changed move typing for Karate Chop, Gust, and Sand-Attack to match the Gen 2 updates (now FIGHTING, FLYING, and GROUND respectively)
  • Added an animated in-battle EXP bar to the HUD
  • Added an in-battle 'already caught' indicator to the HUD (the icon is the one used in Gen 2)
  • Implemented partially forward-patched learnsets via Gen 2 tradeback learnsets (check here for details)
  • Added TM51 (Flamethrower), TM52 (Fire Punch), TM53 (Ice Punch), and TM54 (Thunderpunch) to support the newly forward-patched Pokémon learnsets
    • The TM pamphlet on the top floor of Celadon Mansion has been updated accordingly (the text now mentions 54 TMs instead of 50)
  • Added Bill's father, a new NPC in Bill's grandfather's house in Fuchsia City; he will sell you a Flamethrower TM for 8000p (as he is the Move Tutor in Crystal Version who teaches Flamethrower, he is a good fit for the role)
  • Added new Clerk on 2F of Celadon Dept. Store who sells the 3 new elemental punch TMs
  • Moved the 3 Field Move TMs (Dig, Teleport, Softboiled) to the new Clerk on 2F of Celadon Dept. Store (instead of the vanilla TM Clerk)
  • Updated credits; they now make references to:
    • Solus developer (me)
    • Game disassembly (pret)

Note: save files from previous versions have NOT been tested with this update.
