Stardust HerbDescription

Don’t think this is gonna be a 100% Gold Remake, it’ll have its differences. Extra battles (some’ll be optionals, tough but rewarding), Hoenn Pokemon (in every area, and hard to find) New areas, Remapped some dungeons (so your old guides wont work) , Extra recurring characters (some’ll hate you, some’ll help you)

Note that the hack is incomplete but feel free to enjoy the hack as-is.

================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This hack restores the unused consumable item back into the game as the "Stardust Herb." The new item's name and graphic are based on the item of the same name from the other Mana series games. It functions as though Dispel Magic were cast on you, removing positive status effects and uses Dispel Magic's high level animation. Unlike Dispel Magic, the Stardust Herb will also dispel Lucid Barrier and Moon Energy.

The drop table and shops have been edited to make it possible to acquire this new item along with some other slight adjustments to improve dissatisfying drops.

There is also a companion hack called "Mint Flavored" which offers an alternative green (minty) color palette for the new item.

See README for full chart of drop and shop changes.

Important things to note:

- This hack is not compatible with Faerie Coconut and they should not be combined.
- This hack is not compatible with Magical Herb and they should not be combined.
- This hack is compatible with Drop Table Balance if Drop Table Balance is applied first.
- Because this hack modifies the shops, it may not be compatible with other hacks that modify the shops.
