PMD Special Episode 0 Romhack: Secret Cutscene!

NOTE: This post will contain minor spoilers for the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky games as well as a romhack based off of it: Special Episode 0: In a Dark Past Well. This wasn't exactly what I expected for my first post, but I sure as hell ain't complaining! I'm making this post since I discovered something that I haven't seen posted anywhere, so I thought I might as well share it. Sorry if it's a little long! First off, a bit of context: Thanks to numerous fanart, I've begun playing a PMD romhack called Special Episode 0: In a Dark Past. It's a romhack of the Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky games specifically, delving deeper into the backstories of two of its characters: Grovyle and Dusknoir. As a massive PMD EoS fan, I've been enjoying it so far! Highly recommend it to anyone who's a fan of these games or characters and the writing is great! You can check out the creator's Twitter here, the hack download should be in a pinned post: https://twitter.com/PKMM_ESPEP0 It was when I got to a fight with a Vespiquen and her Combee that I got a little curious. Before I picked up this hack, I'd already watched a short playthrough of it and knew that you were supposed to lose this fight to continue the story (Vespiquen is ridiculously strong and uses Silver Wind, which basically kills you from anywhere). But I wondered if it was possible to beat it. After all, I had a lot of stun seeds by this point, and Duskull knew both Disable and Hypnosis which could stall the Vespiquen.

So I did. Though I must first confess, I didn't do it 100% legitimately. I don't own a DS, so I play all my games using emulators, including both PMD EoS and this romhack. Thus, I was able to save right before the battle so I wouldn't have to reset and go through the entire dungeon every time I lost. So while I did manage to beat the Vespiquen fair and square from start to finish, I did do a couple resets to save time. But that's not what I made this post for. After beating the Vespiquen, I unlocked a secret cutscene! I haven't seen anyone share this before, so I thought I might as well put this out there for anyone who is curious. For anyone who's read this far, thank you so much, and here it is! (It's quite long at about 7 minutes, but it's totally worth the watch!)

Thanks for reading through this one hell of a first post! Like I said, I really love PMD and from the little I've experienced, this romhack is just as beautifully written. Highly recommend checking it out if you haven't! I wonder if I should start posting PMD fanart of my own...

Question:

Does anyone have any tutorials they use for making custom PMD cutscenes / ROM hacks? Especially any written ones? I'm looking to get started on some projects and have no idea where to begin...

Big ask, but does anyone know if there's a 3ds-compatible romhack of any Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games that add shinies to it?

I've done a lot of searching and the only thing that comes up is about PMD DX and the very few shinies it has, which i'm totally not still salty about...

Though i'll also take any reccomendations for other pmd/pokemon romhacks, esp ones that change the story or make their own! I think they're fun :3

[moonpaw]

even though the pmd games mostly follow similar theme'ing, the hero in PMD2 is the only human who does not question why a pokemon is talking to them, they're only confused about their situation with having no memories and wondering why they are a pokemon

this is probably because of grovyle being a major character for the hero's past and the fact that they could communicate supposedly through speech, if the screams are anything to go by!

another fun fact is that the PMD3 hero is the only hero who does not get the ol' amnesia and perfectly remembers everything

[evidentlyhuman]

They should put Celebi PMD2 in a self inflicted time loop. Like, oops, Grovyle or his human just died, gotta go back and save them— oh shit wait one more try— oh shit wait she’ll fix it this time for su— oh damn wait how about this time…

Compilation of Special Episode 0 fanart! These are all post-canon except the last five, that are some of my highlights from these streams of the game. Dusknoir's voice and characterization in these streams is absolutely hilarious and it's now canon to me. he's very famous, he knows it, and he likes it.

[glitchfang]

do kinda wanna learn how to use skytemple and i have an idea i could use too… kinda requires more spritework than im experienced with so i may stick to default sprites but id like to :3

[pyromaniac-cyndaquil]

Completely out of the blue question but just based on canon info (their canon dialogue + actions in general)

If you’re looking for pokemon fan games Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Spirit is a great rom hack for Sky! And it has a lot of the quality of life changes from sky temple so that’s always fun :3

i'm not necessarily Looking for fangames, but i've been recommended a lot today—and being in the skytemple discord, i've heard a lot about this one, of course! my backlog is so long already that i find it hard to imagine a point in time where i'll be looking for fangames to play, but if i ever am, this one is at the top of my list for pmd romhacks

[stitchwraith-stingers]
