Adding pokeball next to enemy hud on wild pokemon that are caught

knuxyl · 2018-02-14 22:39:39

I'm trying implement a system like GSC in pokemon red that will show a pokeball next to their name to show that you've already caught it but I'm not sure where to start.

I'm guessing it'll be somewhere in draw_hud_pokeball_gfx.asm but I don't know. The only rom I know of that has this I cannot reference because they switched to a color hack and all the code is different.

Anybody have any idea on how for me to get started? Thanks

Unfortunately most of the work was done before having been ported over to disassembly, so you probably won't find a commit that only adds the pokeball graphics.

Actually, this feature was the first thing I did after porting to the disassembly.

Here's the commit from 2013:
https://github.com/dannye/pokered-gen-I … cae93eb8b3

Since that commit, the code has been cleaned up slightly (replacing hard-coded memory addresses with wram labels, using the predef macro).
Here's the most recent version of that routine:

Feel free to ask if you have any questions about how it works

Oh, I must not have looked up the right search terms when looking for commits. :p

Well there you go.

Well I tried using the code, but it changed the HUD by adding a block corner image and when there's a pokemon I've already caught it shows a japanese katakana character instead of a pokeball

Here is what it's doing. I copied draw_hud_gfx.asm from engine/battle/ and added the 3-4 routines from your main.asm to home.asm that the new hud.asm was calling for

In that commit I linked you to, I changed that unused Japanese character to the pokeball tile:
