In August, I was listening to Tim Follin's work. When I listened to Chronos on youtube, the suggested videos were for other ZX Spectrum beeper music, such as Rubber Love by Mister Beep. I was blown away! I had thought that Tim Follin getting 5 tinny voices out of the one channel beeper was the peak of what one could do, but Rubber Love had a full sound to it!

I wrote this guide due to a wrong assumption I made about a romhack. I will still publish this guide anyway in case there is a Pokémon romhack out there that doesn't have a fixed version.

I mistakenly thought that the most recent version of Blaze Black and Volt White and its sequels needed to be patched onto a bad dump in order to function. The reason I mistakenly thought this is because the main download page for these hacks has the bad versions of the patches. The good, most recent versions of these hacks can be found on the forum threads for them, which are linked to in the main download page.
So let me pass this lesson to you: if a romhack patch you downloaded from Project Pokémon isn't working, try looking in the thread for a fixed patch!
