POKÉMON ANIME VERSION v1.3.2 (English) - Ash's Kanto journey from Pokémon Season 1 (Indigo League) - TekCafe.vn

WHAT'S NEW IN v1.3.2
  - New in this build (10/11 evening):
    * Season finale: after the Indigo League homecoming your team enters the Hall of Fame (the game saves), then you keep playing in Pallet.
    * Post-game: the Elite Four (guard in the upper-right corner of the Indigo lobby, Lv57-65, four battles in a row + the Champion);
      the Indigo Championship (desk in the upper-left corner: Assunta, Melissa, Gideon, then Champion Slate, Lv52-65; retry a lost round;
      5 Rare Candies for the first win, 1 for each defense); rival Gary at Prof. Oak's ranch, stronger each time you beat him.
    * Battles Ash loses in the anime: lose Brock's first battle -> back to the Pewter Pokémon Center, team healed, no money lost;
      lose to AJ or Ritchie -> the story scene plays on.
    * Charizard sometimes obeys and sometimes doesn't, from Episode 46 to the end of the League. Pikachu swats the Thunderstone away
      (it is not used up) and never evolves.
    * Episode title cards: "Episode N" + title when an episode starts, "To be continued..." when it ends (once each, kept in your save).
    * Anime teams: Misty uses Staryu and Starmie; Team Rocket at the Viridian Gym use the Boss's Machamp, Kingler and Rhydon; Kevin has
      a Nidorino; AJ's Sandshrew knows Dig; Jessie/James/Butch/Cassidy have their own pictures; no one-hit KO moves for trainers,
      no Selfdestruct/Explosion for Team Rocket.
  - Achievements by episode: START > Chievos. One entry per anime episode (87 for Kanto), unlocked when you finish that episode, with an
    "Achievement unlocked!" box at the end of the episode and a Pokémon picture for each. The menu has room for 254 entries (Orange
    Islands / Johto later). Existing saves keep working: finished episodes are counted silently the first time you open it.
  - Roads reworked after FireRed and the story order: Gringey City is now an island in the bay (enter through the Underground Path house
    under the lighthouse trees on Route 6 and the East-West tunnel); Cycling Road à la FireRed, L-shaped (Fuchsia -> west to Laramie Ranch ->
    east-west gatehouse (stand on its door, press LEFT) -> bridge -> north -> Sunny Town south gate, Chopper's gang blocks both directions); Snorlax Village is entered through a cave on
    Route 11; the Route 11 <-> Laramie tunnel is two cave doors (open after Episode 29) and Episode 32 still goes Lavender - Route 12 - Neon Town - Route 14 - 15 - Fuchsia
    (Officer Jenny at Neon's east gate only lets you through with the Soul Badge); Grampa Canyon - egg meadow (plain grass path, no stairs) - mansion - League
    Avenue runs westward in the anime order; a ferry League Avenue <-> Cinnabar (after Episode 57); the southern sea has the narrow
    channel Pallet - Cinnabar, and Fuchsia - Routes 19/20 - Cinnabar goes through the Seafoam cave like FireRed; south of Fuchsia redrawn like FireRed.
  - Fossil cave (Episode 46) is now a locked scene: the cave mouth is a pit, no way out (lose and Brock only calls down from the mouth of the pit and drops medicine); smash the
    middle rock with the Pickaxe, touch the amber, and after the scene the pit is sealed (ancient Pokémon can only be caught before that; the game has no fossil revival).
    Charmeleon does not evolve by level until the end of Episode 46.
  - New (10/11): the gatehouse joining the bicycle bridge and Route 18 is a horizontal room like FireRed; Pokémon Tower is dark and foggy (you need Flash);
    the Game Corner Pokémon prize counter can be bought from; Pikachu no longer turns purple and catches up after battles;
    the Grampa Canyon - egg meadow gap, the egg meadow hospital and house doors were re-checked; many map borders were redrawn to blend in.
  - Fixes: the old Snorlax Village gate dropped you into a sealed pocket (Episodes 39-41 unreachable); dead doors in the Episode 57 basement,
    the Hidden Village / Tower holes, the Cinnabar cave and the Route 18 race track exit; Lavender could not go down to Route 12; the
    bicycle bridge was connected backwards (now redrawn L-shaped); surfing to the map border no longer shows an empty edge (sea rocks);
    the mansion - egg meadow seam (half trees, dead-end path); Route 5 fishing pond sent you to Pewter; Caterpie's sprite in the opening demo battle had broken colors;
    edges of Routes 12 and 14 and Maiden's Peak - Route 6 redrawn.
  - Saves from v1.3.1 keep working: SAVE INDOORS or in a Pokémon Center before switching (some outdoor paths moved).

WHAT'S IN THE GAME
  - A Kanto rebuilt to match the anime (Pallet Town with Prof. Oak's windmill, Gringey City, Porta Vista, Maiden's Peak,
    Dark City, the Laramie Ranch, Grampa Canyon, Blastoise's turtle-shell island…); almost every episode from 1 to 82 is a
    playable cutscene, plus Pokémon: The First Movie (Mewtwo).
  - Every story battle has a win branch and a lose branch: lose and you wake up at the Pokémon Center, come back for new
    dialogue and a rematch.
  - HM01-HM07 and the HM tools (Axe, Raft, Pickaxe, Bicycle) are all obtainable in Kanto.
  - Wild Pokémon are visible on the map (Options > Encounters: Show | Random); all 151 Kanto Pokémon except Lapras.
  - Saves from v1.1.0 and earlier do not work (start a new game).
  - Full list in VERSION HISTORY below. An episode-by-episode walkthrough is published separately.

THIS VERSION ENDS IN KANTO
--------------------------
The hot-air balloon, the harbor and Prof. Oak only hint at the Orange Islands for now.
Lapras and the Orange Islands episodes (Season 2) will come in a later update. All 151 Kanto Pokémon
(except Lapras) can be caught or received.

HM TOOLS & WHERE TO GET THE HMs
-------------------------------
  Axe (cut trees)          : the S.S. Anne Captain (Episode 15), together with HM01. If you miss the ship,
                             the rescue sailor at the harbor gives it to you.
  Raft (cross water)       : the old man on Cinnabar Island, needs the Volcano Badge. Before that, Surf with a Pokémon.
  Pickaxe (smash rocks)    : Gary in Grampa Canyon (Episode 46).
  Bicycle                  : you start with the Bike Voucher; trade it at the Cerulean bike shop.
  HM01 Cut                 : the S.S. Anne Captain.
  HM02 Fly                 : the Pidgeot girl on the grass west of Route 16 (west of Celadon City).
  HM03 Surf                : Kaiser in the Safari Zone, end of Episode 35.
  HM04 Strength            : Koga, together with the Soul Badge.
  HM05 Flash               : Prof. Oak's aide in the gatehouse east of Route 2 (catch 10 species first).
  HM06 Rock Smash          : Gary, together with the Pickaxe (Episode 46).
  HM07 Waterfall           : an item ball on Victory Road.
  (HM moves are for battle; trees, rocks and water on the map use the tools above.)

WHAT IS THIS?
-------------
The story follows the anime instead of the original game:
  - Ash oversleeps, shows up late at Prof. Oak's lab and gets the last Poké Ball: Pikachu.
  - Route 1: the Spearow flock in the rain, Pikachu's ThunderShock, Ho-Oh over the rainbow and Misty's fried bike.
  - Every episode is a real cutscene: characters and Pokémon walk, run and fly in and out of the screen, with
    lightning, rain, storm and flash effects.
  - All the way from Episode 1 to Episode 82: 8 Gyms, the Indigo League… and Ash loses to Ritchie because Charizard
    won't fight, just like the anime. Then the Hall of Fame and a post-game: Elite Four, Indigo Championship, Gary. Includes the banned episodes (Beauty and the Beach, The Legend of Dratini,
    Electric Soldier Porygon) and the First Movie on New Island.
  - Wild Pokémon are VISIBLE on the map like Let's Go Pikachu. Switch it off in Options > Encounters: Show | Random.
  - Only the 151 Kanto Pokémon. Gift and event Pokémon have max IVs, good EVs and a competitive nature.
    Ash's Pokémon are always male, like in the anime. Special Pokémon can be received only once.
  - Auto Run option (hold B to walk), a Bicycle, and Pikachu following you around.

VERSION HISTORY
---------------
v1.3.2 (10/11/2026) - Achievements by episode, reworked roads, fossil cave, door fixes
  (see WHAT'S NEW IN v1.3.2 above; includes the earlier v1.3.2 fixes and the 10/11 rebuilds)
  - 10/11 evening rebuild: Hall of Fame ending, post-game (Elite Four, Indigo Championship, Gary), anime-style losses (Brock, AJ,
    Ritchie), disobedient Charizard, Pikachu refusing the Thunderstone, episode title cards, anime teams.

v1.3.1 (08/11/2026) - Kanto map v7
  - (08/11 evening, same version number) 6 fixes found while shooting the walkthrough: the torch-theft battle (ep. 74) now calls Jessie & James;
    the Diglett forest scene (ep. 31) triggers when leaving the tunnel or entering from the south; Cassandra (ep. 44) no longer hands out
    potions twice; Team Rocket in ep. 41 use Arbok/Weezing; two Mt. Moon trainers no longer rush out and block the one-tile gap;
    area names Maiden's Peak / Snorlax Village in title case.
  - Kanto redrawn a second time on the original Kanto layout + anime positions: 10 towns unchanged, roads as in the original game
    (Routes 12, 14, 19, 20 taken from the original), anime maps in their proper regions; Porta Vista + Giant Pokémon Island are
    islands reached by ferry; Gringey City, Snorlax Village and League Boulevard are side areas with cave/side entrances; new Route 17
    links Route 16 with Sunny Town; a new last stretch of Route 12 links Dark City, Neon Town and Grampa Canyon.
  - Routes named after the episodes; new area names Maiden's Peak and Snorlax Village. Hybrid Town Map: original background + new grid.
  - Story gating for the new paths: 8 Officer Jenny checkpoints (Route 16, Route 11, Dark City, Fuchsia, Neon, Grampa Canyon x2) and the
    Route 11 <-> Laramie Ranch tunnel guide. Brock's line in Snorlax Village points to the new Dark City location.
  - Fixes: the Maiden's Peak boat lands on the south pier; map border tiles of Gringey City / Snorlax Village (exposed cliff) -> forest;
    rock ledges through tree columns in Pallet and on Route 1; the Fuchsia - Laramie Ranch seam.
  - Seams between different tilesets: per-map secondary tileset copies (no more broken tiles at almost every seam; 2 tiles remain at
    Cerulean - Route 5, present in the original).

v1.3.0 (07/11/2026) - map upgrade
  - Kanto redrawn: the towns are joined into closed loops of routes like the classic Kanto, placed to match the anime map.
    Added Routes 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 19, 20 (west) in classic Kanto style; new roads Saffron - Gringey City and
    Route 16 - Sunny Town; short links to the Hidden Village, the Route 22 mansion and Route 18. Both sides of every map
    edge use the same terrain; no more trees cut in half.
  - Stone Town: home of the Eevee brothers (Mikey), up the mountain from Snorlax Village.
  - Tunnel under the mountain: the guide at the east end of Route 11 takes you to a cave at the west end of Route 18
    (opens after the Saffron episodes); step into that cave to go back.
  - Ferries: Porta Vista <-> the pier below Maiden's Peak; Porta Vista <-> Vermilion City (runs after Episode 17).
  - Officer Jenny guards the new paths until the right episode (Neon, Lavender, Routes 11/12, Fuchsia, Saffron, Route 16,
    Porta Vista).
  - Day/night wild Pokémon (20:00-5:59 in-game time) on routes and forests with daytime birds and bugs; Kanto species only.
    Wild Pokémon for the new routes.
  - Town Map redrawn for the new map; opening it in Neon Town (used to be a white screen), Mossgreen Village, Sunny Town,
    Stone Town, Gringey City, Dark City… now works with the right area names.
  - Own area names for Neon Town, Exeggutor's Forest, Mossgreen Village, Sunny Town, Stone Town (all used to say Route 12);
    the name banner shows when entering Neon Town and Route 21.
  - Tag battles (Ash + Brock/Misty, partner controlled by the game, using their own Pokémon) against Jessie + James in
    Episodes 6, 19, 26, 59 and 71; lose and you go back to the Pokémon Center, return for new lines and a rematch.
  - New art: Ash's back sprite in every battle, Brock/Misty back sprites in tag battles; Ash on the Trainer Card, Leader
    Brock, Leader Misty, and a solo Jessie (no longer sharing a picture with James).
  - HM02 Fly: the Pidgeot girl is now west of Route 16 (used to be on Route 22).
  - A Donation line "ko-fi.com/heavenangle" on the opening credits screen (replacing the Pikachu picture) and as the
    last line of the Option menu.
  - Fixed: the Celadon City theater drawing another map at its right edge; a broken tile in Grampa Canyon.

v1.2.2 (06/11/2026) - bug-fix update
  - Fixed: Underground Path below Gringey City - at the turn from the north-south tunnel into the east-west tunnel
    your character froze and the menu would not open.
  - Fixed: entering Nastina's house (the colorful house in Porta Vista, Route 6) garbled the screen and crashed the game.
  - Fixed: the Cycling Road gate (Route 19) - the guard said you need a bike even while you were riding one.
  - Restored the two restaurants on the Porta Vista pier (Route 6): Moe's and Brutella's. Walking in used to push you
    right back outside. Help Moe win customers from Brutella to get a Big Pearl and an Itemfinder; Prof. Oak and Ash's
    mom are there too.
  - Restored the Sunny Town Pokémon Center (Route 19), which also pushed you back out. Bring the Poké Medicine from the
    Fuchsia nurse here and you get to keep the Bicycle.
  - Fixed item names/descriptions in the Bag: Raft (was "Watering Can"), Pickaxe ("Scanner"), Tasty Donut ("Lava Cookie"),
    Super Potion ("Ruby"), Neo Ticket ("Eon Ticket").
  - Fixed: some story NPCs (Misty and Psyduck at the Cerulean Center, Suzy's shop, the Grampa Canyon scene...) appearing or
    disappearing after beating certain trainers or visiting certain towns. Old saves are converted automatically.
  - Fixed the area names shown when you enter a map to match the Kanto map: west of Celadon is Route 16 (it used to
    say Route 13), west of Viridian Route 22, north of Cerulean Routes 24 and 25, east of Vermilion Route 11, around
    Fuchsia Routes 17/18/19/20, Pallet to Cinnabar Route 21, the Mt. Hideaway area Route 23. Signs mentioning route
    numbers were fixed to match.
  - Holding B only lets you run after Mom gives you the Running Shoes (you used to be able to run from the very start).
  - Saves from v1.2.1 / v1.2.0 keep working.

v1.2.1 (05/11/2026) - bug-fix update
  - Episode 7 Cerulean remade after the anime: entering the city you meet Officer Jenny investigating a break-in (the
    thieves only took a vacuum and a giant hose); Brock flirts with Jenny, and Misty walks off when the Gym comes up.
    The three sisters say they just lost three times in a row to kids from Pallet and offer you the Cascade Badge for
    free (Yes/No); Misty shows up and calls herself the fourth sister. Pikachu refuses to battle Misty and sits that
    battle out (if Pikachu is your only Pokémon, go catch more and come back). Team Rocket burst in with the very
    vacuum they stole, Misty heals Ash's Pokémon, and Pikachu is back for the Team Rocket battle.
  - Fix: the screen gradually faded to black after talking to an outdoor healer, bathing in a hot spring or other
    fade-out/fade-in scenes, at night and in gloomy places like Gringey City; houses then stayed dark too.
  - Fix: the Gringey City hot spring healed you again on every step (the screen kept fading as if stuck). Now you
    bathe once; climb the steps and come back down to bathe again.
  - Fix: you couldn't leave AJ's training tent (Route 24).
  - Opening screens now match the Vietnamese edition: the game goes straight to the TekCafe.vn credit screen
    (re-released 05/11/2026; same content and saves otherwise).
  - Fossils: the fossil revival machine on Cinnabar was removed (it never worked). Omanyte and Kabuto are caught in
    Grampa Canyon; the one and only Aerodactyl is at the edge of Grampa Canyon. The Cinnabar scientist has new lines.

v1.2.0 (05/11/2026)
  - Kanto map rebuilt to match the anime; the story is rewritten episode by episode, each episode a cutscene with
    moving characters and electric/rain/flash effects. Every story battle has a win and a lose branch; your choices
    only change the dialogue.
  - Episode 5 Pewter: Flint sells rocks at the start of Route 2; lose to Brock and Flint takes you to the hydro plant
    to charge Pikachu, then the rematch with the sprinklers; win and Flint admits he is Brock's father and takes over
    the Gym.
  - Episode 13: catch Krabby yourself below Bill's lighthouse (with a full party it goes to Prof. Oak), video call
    with Prof. Oak.
  - Episode 24: Sabrina's dollhouse; Haunter stays with Sabrina.
  - Episodes 26-31: Erika and the burning Gym, Hypno hypnotizes the town (Psyduck jumps into Misty's Poké Ball),
    the Salon, the P1 Grand Prix with Meowth's bomb, the Gringey City blackout (Muk battle, receive Muk once),
    the Diglett planting forests (receive Soft Sand).
  - Episodes 46-57 rewritten; new Episodes 60, 61, 62, 66, 68-73; Episode 74 League torch relay and Moltres;
    the Indigo League ends with the loss to Ritchie like the anime (with its own win branch); the First Movie on
    New Island.
  - HM01-HM07 obtainable in Kanto; the S.S. Anne Captain gives the Axe with HM01.
  - S.S. Anne: Dig/Escape Rope take you back to Vermilion Harbor; lose on board and you rest right there.
  - The scientist in the Viridian Pokémon Center gives you the DexNav; trainer names show up when a battle starts;
    enemy Pokémon no longer float; the title screen shows the version number and PRESS START.
  - Giant Pokémon island: Teleport/Fly/Dig/Escape Rope don't work (stranded like the anime); lose and you rest on
    the spot; return to the mainland on the island staff's boat.
  - Fake Day Care (Episode 57): Pokémon you leave there are held by Cassidy and Butch until you beat them in the
    basement. Pokémon you leave with Prof. Oak go to the PC.
  - Pokémon League entrance exam: the borrowed team only counts as "seen" in the Pokédex.
  - Officer Jenny has her own "Officer" trainer class.
  - Wild Pokémon: Kanto species only, placed after the anime and the games (no Sandshrew on Route 1; Golduck only
    by evolution).
  - Legendaries: Articuno at the North Pole, Zapdos at the Power Plant, Moltres on the mountain near Indigo Plateau,
    Mewtwo and Mew after you become Champion; Porygon is a gift at a Pokémon Center.
  - Auto Run option (hold B to walk), Bicycle, Pikachu following you.

v1.1.0 (01/11/2026) - first English edition
  - Wild Pokémon visible on the map (Let's Go style) on every Kanto route, forest and cave; touch one to battle.
    New option "Encounters: Show | Random".
  - Episode 1 rain storm and Ho-Oh; Viridian Forest cutscene (Caterpie, Pidgeotto, Team Rocket Double Battle);
    Cerulean Gym Double Battle against Jessie & James.

v1.0 - v1.0.9 (28-30/10/2026) - Vietnamese-only releases.
