Description

  • Added Heal Pulse to Modern moves
  • Updated Chimecho's Modern moveset to mostly* mirror ORAS/Gen VI.
  • Added False Swipe to Absol's learnset at L33
    - This is the same level Cubone's learns False Swipe, and since they have similar wild encounter rates, it felt fair.
    - Added because I loved using Absol with False Swipe in Gen VI, and there's not a TM in Gen III.
    - If you'd be interested in having False Swipe added as a TM, let me know, and I'd be happy to try adding it.
    - Totally understand if this isn't something you'd like to include though!

*Details on Chimecho:

  • Left Light Screen + Psychic unchanged from the existing Modern moveset.
  • Adjusted levels down for: Growl, Astonish, Confusion, Yawn, Psywave, Heal Bell, Safe Guard
  • Adjusted levels up for: Take Down, Uproar, Double Edge
  • Added: Extrasensory, Heal Pulse
  • Haven't added Syncronoise or Healing Wish yet.

General notes/disclaimers: I'm new to contributing to opensource projects, so please let me know if there are things I can do to be a better collaborator! I absolutely love this ROM hack and really appreciate the work you've put into it.

Edit/Update: When i tested this, I checked that Chimecho was prompted to learn the move at level up. I also tested that the effect worked during battle. I've been testing it more with my savefile though, and I'm noticing that the Move Description is coming up garbled on the summary screen. I reviewed move_description.h and it looks like it's all in order to me... If you spot what I missed, please let me know. I'll continue to look for the issue and resubmit if I find it. Sorry for the premature submission.

Hi there! Fixed the text issue, so Heal Pulse is now readable, in addition to usable in and learnable. :) No stress if this isn't in line with the vision you have for the Modern moveset - just on the table if you'd like it :)
