** Gym trainers now scale along with the Leaders.
 
** The player can now wash their hands.

*** It changes very little as the National Dex will still be unlocked at the start. It's mostly just an easier way to see which Pokémon are available on each half of Altaris.
 
**** There'll likely be rewards for completing each dex at some point, however.
 
*** The dexes will be properly set in the following cases:
 
**** New files: Simply get your PokéBit from Professor Spruce.

* AUDIO
 
** A fainting Pikachu no longer sounds demonic.
 
** Certain tracks have been given loop points with the Fmod script to allow them to properly loop.
 
*** While not exact in some cases, they should be close enough to not be too awkward.
 
**** That being said though, those tracks may experience a mistimed first loop whenever the track plays
 
*** If there are still tracks that don't loop to this effect, they should be set to do so in later versions.
 
** Trainer encounter themes now loop.
 
*** Although not to the effect of other tracks as noted above.
 
** The music has hopefully been balanced to a consistent level.
 
* OTHER
 
** Changes to items in overworld:

** To explain the blinking to begin with, I was trying to figure out how to handle the event that clears the path for the player after the school tournament while taking into account a run-in with Noro. Unfortunately, that was clearly not the best way to handle it, and thus it is changed again. My apologies for any confusion/inconveniences this caused. (-L2XG)
 
** As a result however, if you are on Hard Mode and haven't entered Rubina or have given Noro a Nidoran but haven't obtained the next sidequest from battling him and enter Route 3 from Emeralis, you will have to battle Noro again.

** Dust clouds can be found in Jadit Cavern and Ironis Tunnel
 
** Currently an issue where a normal wild battle will still occur when walking into a phenomenon, possibly resulting in two battles in a row
 
* Finally fixed a long-running typo where every box in every medium house would contain "electrinics" manuals.

* The player can no longer endanger themselves by running between the deathmatch happening in Ironis Black Market.
 
* Noro's initial quest now shows the correct sprite in the quest log.

* Pokémon caught and added to party no longer immediately evolve if at or above their level requirement

** Note: You may experience some negative changes when leveling them up. This is ironically normal as the Pokémon readjust their stats to match up with their altered base stats.
 
* Healing point coordinates readjusted in a few cities.

** The version number will be updated for every future patch and core. So if at any point your game's version number does not match either the latest core or patch number on the downloads page of our website, you are not on the latest version and need to update.
 
*** Of course if you do not see this number at all in your game, you're definitely not on the latest version and need to update.
