[Switch] Pokemon Divine Sword and Blessed Shield v1.1

Name: Pokemon Divine Sword and Blessed Shield
Remade by: Kobazco (Kobazco)
Based on: Pokemon Sword and Shield

Description:
Pokémon Divine Sword and Blessed Shield is a difficulty romhack, taking inspiration mostly from Drayano’s work. However, I also played Radical Red last year and took some inspiration from that, although outside of QoL features those are purely optional. So don’t worry if you want to play in Switch mode and use healing items in battle! We’ve made edits to nearly every Pokemon, mainly focusing on making egg and tutor moves available through normal level up movesets as well as providing buffs and new moves to tons of different Pokémon. Of course, there is documentation for everything included in the google drive folder with the download.

We’ve of course redone the team of every single trainer in the game, and hope to encourage team building in order to over come these challenges. However, it is important to remember that all of this is done within the confines of Sword & Shield. We cannot make the AI super smart, nor can we force certain aspects like a level cap, etc. However, we have gone to great lengths in order to make it the best we possible could.

Notable Features:
Completely reworked Raid rewards system
All 600 Pokémon from Sword & Shield (including DLC) catchable outside of the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra
Overhauled boss battles
Quality of life features such as purchasable EV reducers
Shop overhauls in order to make competitive items easily accessible
Healing items disabled during trainer battles (THIS IS OPTIONAL)
Battle Items removed from the game (not optional, as X items are the new purchasable EV reducing items)
Edited Adventure Guide for in game documentation
Edited Pokémon & various buffs/moveset edits.

v1.1 Changelog: Return of the EXP. Candies
!!SELL ALL OF YOUR “MEDICINE” ITEMS THAT ARE IN YOUR “ITEMS” POUCH PRIOR TO UPDATING IF YOU DO NOT USE THE USABLE HEALING ITEMS PATCH!!

Healing items have been moved back to the “Medicine” pouch, and are still not usable in battle without the patch.

EXP. Candies make their return, obtainable through shops in every Pokecenter. They appear as you get Gym badges in the following tiers:
XS – 0 Badges ₽600
S – 2 Badges ₽1,000
M – 4 Badges ₽3,000
L – 6 Badges ₽9,000

All changes regarding EXP. Candies are tentative and subject to change. Please provide your feedback!
In addition, all Nature Mints are now purchasable from the start of the game at all Pokecenters for ₽7,500.
Wishing Pieces are also in every Pokecenter for ₽5,000

As a test, Ballonlea’s Pokecenter has a new NPC behind the left counter that will offer to feed your pokemon Max Soup for 3 Max Mushrooms.
Max Mushrooms can be purchased at any Pokecenter after receiving 5 Gym Badges.
In future updates, this NPC will be in all Pokecenters.
Max Mushrooms are now in the “Items” pouch.

Please refer to the documentation and various forum posts for documentation

Installation (CFW):
1. This is assuming you have Atmosphere CFW installed on your switch. I will not be providing a tutorial on how to do this
2. If you are playing Divine Sword, move the folder titled “0100ABF008968000” to atmopsphere\contents, “01008DB008C2C000” for Blessed Shield
3. Launch the game

Installation (Yuzu Emulator)
1. Right click on Sword/Shield in Yuzu and select “Open Mod Data Location”
2. In the folder opened, create a new folder titled “Divine Sword/Blessed Shield”
3. Put the romfs folder from within “0100ABF008968000” if you are playing Divine Sword into this folder. “01008DB008C2C000” if you are playing Blessed Shield
4. Confirm it is enabled in the game’s properties
5. Launch the game

An easy way to tell if the mod is working is if the Mystery Gift menu option is replacede with “Divine Sword & Blessed Shield”, among other text edits.

English is the only supported language.

If you want to use healing items in battle, please use the “Usable Healing Items” download and follow these instructions:
Place the item.dat file in romfs\bin\pml\item, and select “yes” to replace the old one.

PLEASE ENSURE YOU ARE PLAYING ON SWSH VERSION 1.3 OR ABOVE, OR ELSE IT WILL NOT WORK.

I CANNOT troubleshoot emulator issues, as it is inconsistent per user. For many it works, for many it does not. The game intentionally crashes on Pokejobs in order to prevent an exp/ev exploit.

THE ISLE OF ARMOR AND CROWN TUNDRA ARE NOT EDITED YET. Neither are the Champion’s Cup rematches.

This game is a Switch Hack ROM. It’s Completed in English.
