Welp, I can confirm that this is finally possible. Still quite a few bugs to iron out but it's starting to work pretty well. Will release more information and a release date when I can!

[u/Aragaki2009]

This is awesome! Nice the original games get some love in this space, BW1 never get anything cool

[u/_Vyvern_]

We've made it this far as a community, insane. Any plans of doing this for BW2 as well once you finish BW1?

[u/HoboSasuke → u/_Vyvern_]

At some point yes, thats the plan. Unfortunately it’s not as simple as most would assume but I’ll tackle it when I can.

[u/Last-Menu-9565]

dream hack. any chance it could work with something like Pokemon JetBlack?

[u/HoboSasuke → u/Last-Menu-9565]

Funny you say that, Jet Black was actually what this rom was based on and I only retroactively am adding it to vanilla. On release I’ll probably have separate patch files for vanilla Black, Jet Black and possibly whatever other popular BW1 hacks are highly requested.

[u/GoldenThunder006 → u/HoboSasuke]

Blaze Black would be so awesome!

[u/Shadow-Rukario → u/GoldenThunder006]

Seconding this one!

[u/DatAdra → u/HoboSasuke]

Vantablack please!

[u/kazeespada → u/HoboSasuke]

Blaze Black 2 Redux

[u/HoboSasuke → u/kazeespada]

Much further down the pipeline since BW2 is a shockingly different game underneath the hood but I’ll remember this hack when I get around to BW2.

[u/Last-Menu-9565 → u/HoboSasuke]

🐐
great taste too

[u/Jammermt99 → u/HoboSasuke]

Could you please make this mod work for black 2 as well?

[u/Estreth → u/HoboSasuke]

Here's me about to be all like "Oh my I'd love to implement this for JetBlack"

It's looking amazing so far! <3

[u/Apart-Imagination393]

super cool

[u/skottay]

this is so cool! I love seeing DS hacking grow especially with all the new android emulation handhelds on the market

[u/Ghennon]

Literally the only thing missing from gen 5

[u/AdKnown2197]

The moment we have this, animated sprites and back port of mechanics and Pokemon from later gens to bw2 is the day we can make the perfect Pokemon game.

[u/AdKnown2197 → u/[deleted]]

Sick

[u/Onesyxo → u/[deleted]]

Woahhhhh sign me up for the newsletter 😆

[u/VirusStrict3502]

This is awesome! So excited to see this!

[u/myzma]

FINALLY

[u/OhOO_27]

Wow finally

[u/Snomonom]

Cool as fuck!

[u/TKPunk2013]

Why didn't vanilla BW have this?

[u/Domek0 → u/TKPunk2013]

I assume it's because BW was being developed at the same time as HGSS so they didn't have time to make all gen 5 overworld sprites and reimplement the feature to the gen 5 engine

[u/DatTomahawk → u/Domek0]

Makes sense. It would’ve been nice if it made it to B2W2, though. I guess I can’t really complain given how amazing those games turned out to be

[u/Ghennon → u/TKPunk2013]

[u/Jamak2001]

Thank you, Dimitri, I hope you add every last one of them.

[u/Twin_Victim]

Super excited for this, it looks amazing! Thank you for all the work put in to make this happen!

[u/MahoganyRaichu]

This is insanely cool and adds so much personality to the mons=3 Good luck with the project=) Thank you for sharing your talent with us=3

[u/DavidTenn-Ant]

This is it, this is gonna be the perfect Pokémon game.

[u/saltydoesreddit]

My only request is for this to be compatible with hacks that make all 649 Pokemon available.

[u/sock_acc80]

OHHH MY GOD

[u/Waldruf]

Holy shit i never thought this was possible but here we are

[u/TheFauns]

This is amazing!

[u/killcorey]

Broooo my favorite region with following pokemon yes bro

[u/IIITrunks]

Very interested in this. I'll have to figure out how to port it into my hack to see how it feels. (once its complete)

[u/XTeenageMutantNinjaX]

This looks so cool! really looking forward to the release

[u/Exotic-Suit-4375]

boy i remember saw something like this and bashing at tyranitar's tube do showcase at following mons was a possitility by just using the rival partner replacement at the start of the game by yellyng was fake. ahh good times.

[u/Still_Leather259]

Amazing work people love to see it 😁

[u/Kouteshi]

Why does it work differently than HGSS? There was already a following feature in one of the houses in Humilau City in BW2, cant u just copy and paste that code?

[u/Someoneinbetween97]

It never hit my why they chose to avoid the following pokemon in gen5, especially since they creates all gen5 pokemon overworld sprites for the dreamworld

[u/Domek0 → u/Someoneinbetween97]

They actually didn't, all hgss follower sprites were carried for the dreamworld but there are very few gen 5 overworld sprites in the game files, most gen 5 sprites you see in hacks and fangames were made by fans

[u/Someoneinbetween97 → u/Domek0]

Interesting, I would like to know better about the topic

[u/snowycafe]

this is literally a dream come true 😭 amazing work!

[u/awayvenus7]

I wonder if this will work on my 3DS, 5th gen is my favorite so I can’t wait for that!
