Pokemon Emerald Rotate ROM

Pokemon Emerald Rotate is a Pokemon Emerald ROM hack with the entire overworld map remade and rotated 90 degrees, so the region’s orientation matches its real-life counterpart, Kyushu. My first ROM hack, so the mechanics are almost entirely vanilla, but every change in it was made by me.

Features

• Added most unencounterable Pokemon as rare encounters. Was kind of sloppy with my documentation, so may have missed some.
• Trade evolutions use items.
• Only buffed one Pokemon Masquerain
• Cave internals are not going to be rotated, but I might get around to rotating Petalburg Woods at some point.
• A couple of move changes, e.g., Cut is now Steel-type and breaks screens

Known Issues

• Sprite pop-in at route boundary.
• Indoors NPC’s sometimes face the wrong direction, due to me messing some basic movement paths early on and not realizing until it was too late.
• There is something messing with the music.
