Evolve your Pokemon pets to their mega evolution stages in this fun Pokemon ROM hack for the Game Boy Advance – Pokemon Omega Ruby!

Pokemon Omega Ruby is a Pokemon ROM hack for the Game Boy Advance handheld system (GBA). The game is based on Pokemon Ruby and features the same storyline as the original game. Although it has the same title as the popular NDS game, the game was actually not based on it. The main difference of this hack as compared to the original Pokemon Ruby version is the addition of Mega Evolution. In this ROM hack, there are 22 Pokemon that can use the Mega Evolution that will turn the Pokemon into a much more stronger version of itself with even more attack variations.

There have been 64,404 plays and 518 likes from 637 votes (82%) since 12/02/2018.

Back to top

If you can't win, cheat. Hell, cheat anyway. That's how the saying goes. Whether you choose to apply that saying to Pokémon Go is up to you. If you prefer to earn your rewards honestly, through hard work and determination, then stop here and go check out my Pokémon Go tips and tricks instead. Otherwise, if all you want to do is win at all costs, here's how people are hacking and cheating their way to the top!

Warning: Stuff that can and should get your account banned

There are some cheats and hacks that are expressly against the Pokémon Go terms of service (ToS). People do them, and they seem to work, which is frustrating, so more people start doing them, and it creates a vicious cycle. They can also get you banned. Bans sometimes come in waves every month or so, but now they've also been joined by 'slashing', which puts a line across illegitimately gained Pokémon and makes them useless in Gym and Raid Battles.

Before investing any time in this kind of cheating, consider you might end up losing that time completely.

1. Spoofing: Some people fake their GPS location so that can go to where a 100% Dragonite or Tyranitar is and scoop it up immediately, drop onto any Gym and take it down and build it back up at any time, and otherwise travel the world at a whim. Pokémon Go is cracking down on this by randomizing stats on the server side for any player under level 25, so it's currently very hard to detect the IV of a Pokémon. On the Android side, spoofing is also being detected and locked out of the game. It's obviously something Pokémon Go cares about deeply and wants to prevent.
   Most recently, Pokémon Go has begun locking out teleporting, soft-banning people who previously jumped to engage but returned to catch Pokémon, and slashing out illegitimately obtained Pokémon, so they're useless in battle anyway.

2. Botting: Botting is like spoofing but automated. With an army of fake characters and a bunch of scripts, botters travel the PokéScape collecting as many high-level Pokémon as possible. It's financed by online maps with ads and donation buttons, and by people who buy accounts online. Again, recent changes might make this harder and less useful than it was in the past. That includes shadowbans, which are preventing bot accounts (including those used for maps) from seeing anything other than common Pokémon, and slashing out illegitimately obtained Pokémon, so they're useless in battle anyway.

3. Multi-accounting: Some people who don't bot or spoof still cheat by using multiple accounts. When they take down a Gym, they quickly fill it up with the accounts of their friends, families, and teammates — sometimes even if those people have long since stopped playing. Though 'bubblestrat' — a way to quickly power a Gym up — is no longer useful since the big Gym update, filling up all the slots in a Gym still locks other legitimate players out.

4. Shaving/cycling: Those who can't or simply don't want to take over new Gyms will sometimes switch to a second account for another team, knock a teammate's Pokémon off a Gym owned by their own team, and then replace it with their own Pokémon from that team. It's cannibalistic and doesn't help grow their own team and creates significant resentment as well.

5. Auto-IV checkers: Pokémon Go isn't just shadow-banning bots that abuse the API, they're banning accounts that have granted access to third-party apps like IV-checkers that absuse the API as well. Changing your Google password and revoking account access to these apps can help avoid and reverse the ban.

Most online forums are filled up with people complaining about all of these practices and more, and it's best to avoid them because the next time the banhammer comes, it could come down on anyone engaging in them.

Skip the Raid start animation

Going from the lobby to the Boss battle in Pokémon Go Raids can take a few seconds, especially if there's any network slowdown, and that can cost you precious time for solo and specialty Raids.

Luckily, there's a way to skip right from the lobby to the raid, no GO between.

1. Create an empty team
2. Join a Raid.
3. Pick your empty team.
4. Wait for Raid to start.
5. Pick your real team.

What happens is that, with an empty team, you get kicked back immediately to the rejoin screen, and when you do, rebounded back into the Raid with no animation screen.

It only saves you a few seconds but sometimes that's all you need.

Kick any Pokémon out of a Gym

If you have three players with you and you need to kick a Pokémon out of a Gym, even a fully powered Blissey, you can do it. And not even Golden Razz can stop you.

As detailed on The Silph Road:

1. Start a Gym battle with 3 players.
2. Players 1 and 2 drop out immediately while Player 3 keeps battling.
3. Players 1 and 2 join a new battle.
4. Player 1 drops out immediately while Player 2 keeps battling.
5. Player 1 joins a new battle and keeps battling.
6. Player 1, 2, and 3 all finish the battle at the same time.

Because Pokémon Go treats all the battles staged this way as separate encounters, it calculates all three sets of damage separately, knocking the Pokémon out immediately. No chance to Golden Razz.

Use this power responsibly.

Get tomorrow's free raid pass — today!

This works if you live far enough behind the international date line, including in North America and Europe, and you've already used your existing free Raid passes for the day — either just today's free Raid pass or today's and yesterday's if you'd stockpiled it — and want to squeeze in one more free Raid today knowing you won't be raiding tomorrow.

As detailed on The Silph Road, once you've used your existing free Raid passes, you simply switch your time zone to New Zealand or a similar location that's a day ahead. Then, spin a Gym, get tomorrow's free Raid pass, and use it today.

You can switch your time zone on iOS in Settings > General > Time & Date.

Just note that the location you choose has to already be a day ahead, and remember you won't get that same pass for free tomorrow. (You could theoretically keep setting your time zone ahead and keep getting the next day's free Raid pass today, but that becomes a good amount of overhead. Better to let time catch up with you as much and as often as possible.)

Skip the catch animation

If you don't want to wait for the lengthy Pokémon Go catch animation to complete, you can try exploiting this bug:

1. Tap on the Pokémon you want to catch.
2. With your off hand (right if you're a lefty, left if you're a righty), swipe from left to right and leave your finger down on the left side of the screen. (You should see the Poké Ball selector tug slightly as you swipe.)
3. Throw the Poké Ball with your good hand, as usual.
4. Lift your finger up as soon as the Poké Ball has successfully hit the Pokémon you're trying to catch.
5. Tap the screen to exit the Poké Ball selector.
6. Tap the Run icon at the top left to leave the encounter.

You'll still see the Pokémon on the map. Check your Pokémon Storage to see if you successfully caught the Pokémon or, if it escaped, repeat the procedure to try again.

Find all the spawns and Raids on Maps

Update: Due to a Pokémon Go API (application programming interface) change in March, Maps have all gone offline. Previous API changes took around a month to reverse engineer. No telling how long it will take this time. Since Pokémon Go has failed to provide an official alterative for suburban and rural players trying to organize Raids, the outage has significantly curtailed participation in many areas. Bad all around.

The goal of Pokémon Go is serendipitous discovery. You're out and about, maybe shooting some video in the woods and then you look up and BOOM — Snorlax! OMG!

But the odds of that happening are so rare some people have tried to game the system by having bots walk around for them, discover the rare spawns like Unown or 100% IV versions of the best attackers in the game, like Geodude, Machop, Dratini, and Larvitar. Or just to get the latest and greatest, like Slakoth, Beldum, Bagon, and Raltz.

I've tried a couple and they're not my favorite. There's a rush to seeing a rare Pokémon and racing out to catch them. There's also a danger in overdoing it and a cost — you can't cross town in the 30-minute spawn window on foot, which means you end up driving, and that destroys the exercise benefit and a lot of the chill. Depending on traffic — or tickets — you can often miss the spawn anyway, which is a real waste of time.

A better use is for Raids. Pokémon Go doesn't provide anywhere near the range you really need to plan and get to Raids, especially outside urban areas. Maps, though, can show you all the Raid Eggs in your area, what their timers are, and what they are when they hatch. It makes it much easier to coordinate with others and get to the right Raid at the right time.

You can check your local Facebook group and see what trackers people in your area are using. Some are online maps, others are apps, and still others are Twitter accounts or chat bots. Some just show you Pokémon, others want you to make multiple accounts and tap through multiple CAPCHA.

You might end up loving or hating them — or simply wishing Pokémon Go would fix Sighting so you wouldn't need them. I mean, there's a Snorlax 50 m away, Pokémon Go should absolutely show that before the 6 Pidgey at the PokéStop cluster down the street..

Know exactly which Gyms belong to which team

Update: Like Raid and spawn maps, Gym maps are also currently offline following the Pokémon Go API change.

Similar to the Pokémon scanner sites, there are sites that use their bot armies to scan and update Gym information, including which team any given Gym belongs to at any given moment. Under the old system, they could even tell you what level a Gym was, which specific Pokémon were on it, what trainer they belonged to, and even a recent history for the Gym. Under the new system, they can only show team control. (Which is much better for privacy and community health reasons.0

Still, if you're out and looking to take down Gyms, they can help you see which Gyms are owned by other teams and ready to be taken down. There's no information on the maps that you couldn't get from walking or otherwise moving around and looking, but some people prefer to look first before deciding which direction to head out.

Check IVs to find out exactly which Pokémon to evolve

You always want to evolve the best Pokémon possible. 'Best' being defined as having the highest stats (IV). The better the Pokémon you evolve, the higher the CP (Combat Power) and HP (Hit Points) it'll have, and the better it'll do in Gym and Raid Battles.

Pokémon Go includes a built-in appraisal system but it's not very granular. The best you can get is:

• Valor (red): 'Amazes me!'
• Mystic (blue): 'A wonder!'
• Instinct (yellow): 'Battle with the best of them!'

That tells you your Pokémon has stats in the 80% to 100% range. But that's a big range. If you pay attention to how many stats are called out, Attack, Defense, and Stamina (HP), and add in:

• Valor (red): 'Blown away!'
• Mystic (blue): 'Exceeds my calculations!'
• Instinct (yellow): 'Best I've seen!'

You can narrow it down further. But even with some brain gym, you won't get an exact number. For an exact number, you'll need a third-party IV app. Now, not everyone is into stats, not in Baseball and not in Pokémon, but if you are, they're available to you, and they'll make sure your every Pokémon you evolve is a monster.

Note: Never use any app that asks for your Pokémon or Google login in order to work. There are enough really good apps that don't, both for phones and on the web, that risking your credentials and potentially getting data stolen is never necessary. If you give your account up, you will likely be shadowbanned.

That way, you can evolve the 100% Bagon into Salamence and not the 82% one.

Bulk evolve faster with a flick

The basic formula for leveling up as fast as possible is well known by now: Catch a ton of Pidgey, Caterpie, and Weedle, drop a Magic Egg, and evolve as many as you can before the Egg expires. That gives you a 30 min. to max out your XP. Given the evolution animation takes 20 seconds, assuming you're a precision tapping machine, you can hit up to 90 evolutions.

Some people believe, though, that if you force quit the Pokémon Go app and then relaunch it — which also finishes the evolution for you — you can squeeze in some extra evolutions.

Personally, I find it a lot more work for what is, in my ham-fingered case, little game. But if tap and swipe that a surgeon, you might just set yourself some new bulk evolution records.

Note: Some people try using multiple phones to make the bulk evolution process even faster. It's unclear if it works or still works if it once did, but it is clear it's a violation of the Terms of Service and could have consequences.

Dodge the driving lockouts

Pokémon Go does everything it can to prevent people from playing while driving and that's a very good thing. Unfortunately, it also prevents people from playing while being passengers in cars, buses, trains, and other forms of transportation.

There are different levels of lockout. The first is the 10 KM/H limit for egg hatching and Buddy candy walking. Go over that limit and Pokémon Go radically lowers the amount of distance it logs. The second is the 35 KM/H limit for spinning PokéStops, seeing Nearby and Sightings on your radar, and triggering spawns in your vicinity. Go over that limit and you log almost no distance, can't spin any stops, and can't see or spawn any Pokémon.

It's all absolutely for the best but there are also a couple ways around it. They don't always work but when they do, you'll rack up mega mileage and sometimes still get in a few spins and spawns.

1. Go to the egg screen on Pokémon Go. Hit the Home button so you return to the Home screen. Don't launch any other apps but don't let the screen go off either. Drive a short distance, something under 10 minutes. Then open Pokémon Go again and you might see some amazing distance gains. (I've had little to no luck with this but numerous people have sworn it works.)

2. If you have an Apple Watch, start a Pokémon Go workout. Next, find some form of slow transportation. Whether that's an Uber/taxi or bus in traffic or a ferry, doesn't matter. Slower the better, though. While the workout is running, pat your watch hand lightly up and down while you're moving. You should get decent results, depending on your speed.

3. Use Pokémon Go Plus. It's just a click, so it's easy to use, and it often catches things you wouldn't be able to use if you're being driven around in a car trying to do it directly in the app.

4. Drop an Incense. Currently, Incense seems immune to the speed lock that affects everything else in Pokémon Go. So, even if you're a passenger in a high-speed car, bus, or train on the highway, a Pokémon should still spawn for you every few minutes. Almost all of them will be common but you may get a rare Pokémon once or twice.
