Star Beasts - Comet Version ROM

Star Beasts – Comet Version is a Game Boy ROM Hack by Soul Valor based on Pokemon Blue. It was last updated on February 07, 2026.

Description

Star Beasts 3.0.: Comet Version features an entirely new Dex of Fakemon and a mostly new region (Relas) with a focus on exploration. Worked on over the course of more than half a decade, Star Beasts is a Gen 1 total conversion and homage to the first generation of Pokémon games. Started as a passion project to make a playable version of Vast Fame’s Shi Kong Xing Shou for English speaking audiences, Star Beasts became its own project with entirely new fakemon designs and a new region. 

Features

• A completely overhauled soundtrack! Almost none of the music from the original games remains!
• An overhauled Pokedex, complete with backsprites, that fixes balance issues and replaces uglier designs and makes older evolutionary families more consistent.
• Even more overhauled movesets, with even more new moves!
• The Fairy, Steel and Dark types!
• A new region, Relas!
• New types of trainers with different rosters and improved AI!
• More dialogue and areas than the original games!
• Rebalancing of the game to make it more accessible to newcomers, including plenty of NPCs that give you hints on where to find rare Star Beasts! And, as if that weren’t enough, there’s documentation on every Beast! (Although the game is best experienced blind, use your discretion!)
• Various quality of life improvements, such as an experience bar!

Known Glitches

• Music can sound wrong or loop improperly on older, less accurate emulators. (VisualboyAdvance, older versions of NO$GBA, older versions of TGB Dual, etc)
  Use a more accurate emulator like BGB or MGBA.
• Certain areas and encounters can cause crashes or softlocks on less accurate emulators. If you’re stuck on a less accurate emulator, save often. If you enter a certain area in Rhinestone (you’ll know it when you see it) and you’re using a less accurate emulator, DON’T SAVE in that area. Make a savestate or use a more accurate emulator.
• Rewinding has a chance to cause severe glitches and even hard crashes. It’s probably better if you make a savestate and try to avoid rewinding. This problem also exists in vanilla gen 1 to a lesser extent.
• Reviving a fainted Beast that fainted due to recoil damage will result in the Beast being poisoned. Give it something that heals poison or heal it at a Star Beast Center.
• Save before using the Move Deleter. Interacting with him can cause occaisional crashes.
• VIEWING THE HALL OF FAME AGAIN FROM THE PC AFTER BEATING THE ELITE FOUR HAS NOT BEEN TESTED, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. MULTIPLAYER HAS NOT BEEN TESTED. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
