Version 0.8.2

Now radiant pokemon can have their filter changed individually.

To change the filter:

1. The pokemon has to be radiant (or radiant shiny).
2. It has to be captured with Radiant Ball (you can put the ball on it if you already have radiants captured from other versions for example).
3. Go to the summary screen (from overworld or PC) and then press the R or L button (if you press R and L at the same time, the default filter is set).

If you put the pokemon in the default filter then it will be seen with the filter you have set in OPTIONS.
Wild Pokemon and radiant trainers are seen with the default filter (I may have an option in the future so that this can be changed).
In multiplayer combat you can also see the filter BUT in overworld you only see the default filter (I still have to implement that but it’s a lot of trouble).
The radiants with the filters they have are stored on the PC.

NEW

• In combat now if you press the L button you can see attack information (zmoves and max moves not included)

CHANGES

• Aerodactyl now appears on the first floor of sky pillar (if you have it as a pokemon you can use it to go through the holes without needing a bike)
• Sprite balloon team rocket is now much more epic
• Wild Spinda only comes out with a pattern (the idea is to change that in the future, but I have to make changes on PC so that the pattern is saved)
• If you have activated the level cap, now the levels of the rivals will be the same in all difficulties.

BUGS SOLVED

• When teleporting (from menu start) the game could freeze.
• Some pokemon had bad movements due to tutor.
• Yamask Galar in pokedex crashed in the section where you can check its movements.
• In double battles, if your opponent only had one pokemon left (located on the right), your pokemon located on the right could only use one attack.
• Zoroark bug ability in combat in certain situations.
• Bug color palette in town 2 gym if you had 6 pokemon that followed you, you played with a character and team rocket was present.
• You could not change the order of attacks on PC or daycare.
• If you played as a pokemon and it was radiant, when buying in a store you lost the color (only during purchase).
