GIGA Patch | October 2024

Please take a look at the README file to find out about how to install and see the full update list.

DO THIS FIRST! Please check and see if you are using a Platinum 1.0 ROM for this patch. You can check this by opening the randomizer and opening the ROM. If it looks like the picture on the left, then you're good. If it doesn't, the game will crash during the first rival fight.

Good luck on your runs!

Updates:

Update	Details
Dialogue Overhaul	A lot of unnecessary text has been removed from the game to speed up the run. Less yapping, more battling. Now including all the way up to the Hall of Fame!
Move Mom To The Left	One of the most requested updates is finally here! No more running into the TV!
Move NPCs	Some non-important NPCs have been moved out of the way/ made static to avoid unnecessary bumping into them. Moved some important NPCs closer to doors to avoid chasing them around, such as the Berry lady in Floaroma.
Removed/ Moved Signs	There's a lot of useless signage in Platinum... I have got rid of/ moved a lot of them.
Scrapped Arceus Plate Text	Arceus Plate text will now no longer appear when picking one up.
Missing Psyduck	Added a name-rater Psyduck in the Floaroma PC.
Instant Honey Encounters	Making Honey Pivots more viable. No more waiting for 6 hours for a Pokémon to appear! Apply honey to the tree and see what you find. Highest encounter level is 23.
Fixed Rival 2 Bug	Previous versions of the Platinum IronMON patch made it so that the player can battle Barry to the east of Jubilife BEFORE talking to him in the trainer school. This breaks the flow of the vanilla game, as Looker should send you to the school before heading onto Route 203. This gives the player more options to pivot than they should have before clearing vital story progression.
Fashion IronMON	The Fashion Case will be fully stocked for your contests.
Tuckkable Beds	The bed in the players' bedroom and the bed in the house outside Eterna forest will now fully heal your party.
Time-based Trainers	Standardised Joggers, Policemen and the Seven Stars Restaurant to battle at any time of the day.
Galactic HQ Bed Tweak	The right-hand-side bed in the Veilstone Galactic HQ has had the healing tiles removed. This does not give anyone an advantage, as the item is picked up before the healing tile underneath can be accessed. The left-hand-side bed still has the healing tiles remaining, so if an IronMON runner wishes to heal their Pokémon here, they can do so in this bed. This is just a QoL for Kaizo+ runners to ensure maximum safety when picking up this one dungeon item.

I have added snow falling in Twinleaf town (because it's a vibe) but this does technically give an IronMON runner a slight advantage if the fishing pivot has Magic Guard, Ice Body or Snow Cloak. As there might be some controversy over whether this should be included, I have created a snowy version AND a clean version.

File names breakdown:

• FLX - The frame limiter has been turned off. The game runs smoothly but faster.
• Snowy - Adds slow, falling snow to Twinleaf Town.
